In another column ofour paper to-day will be
found atcall, issued BY a MAJORITY of the
Union Executive Committee of our county, re-
questing the loyal men of the county to assemble
in primary meetings on Saturday, the At day kof
August nsrt, to elect five delegates from each dis
trict to a county Convention, to be held at Tow

the purpose of selecting seven delegates to repre-
sent the county in the State Convention to be
held in Baltimore on the 18th day of August.
Last week less than half of the Executive Cons
mittee ofour county held meeting, and the ma
jority present passed series of resolutions, de-
nouncing as boilers I" and " disorya,uzers !"
all who thought proper to differ with them upon
the questions of the day, and particularly those
who had participated in any measure proposed
by the 9th of June Convention. 1t will be seen
that these eight gentlemen of the Committee de-
nOunced majority Of their o0n body for this cali
is under the authority of the 9th Of June Conven-
ton, and is signed by fifteen of the tsOsnty-sis
members of the Committee. The people can pass
judgment, as to which side more properly de-
serves the epithet of (" boilers and tf disorgan-
izers." The resolutions passed last week con-
tended that the Executive Committee was the
only proper authority under which the Union
men could act, that all meetings or conventions
held without its authority was illegal. Be itso.
The majority of that Committee have spoken,
and have condemned the action towards disorgass-
ization, attempted last week by minority Of the
Committee. Although few who have hereto
fore acted with the Union party may have gone
wandering after strange gods. yet the great bo-
dy of the party remains true to their principles,
and will not be dictated to. s I'D -
