We, the Democratic and Conservative
voters of ManningtoH township, In
meeting assembled, having experienced
for the last several years the course of
an irresponsible set of Tyrants and Fa-
natics, Dictaters of the Radical party,
and believing that the time has at
length arrived that we must raise the
arm of Democracy and assert our inde-
feasible rights to the benefit of free
Constitution given to us by our fore
fathers-therefore
ReSOlred, That we will to the utmost
of our power most heartily endorse the
resolutions framed by Virginia and Ken
tucky in 1853, and that we fully CO.
operate and will maintain to the utmost
of our integrity the resolutions adopted
by the Democratic and Conservative
State Convention held in Wheeling
January 9Th and 9th, 1868.
ReSolred, That believing as we do that
prosperity and happiness lies within the
white mans grasp, and in calling upon
the people ofour township to shake off
the shackles ofdespots and to array them
selves against Radicalism, we think it
requires no persuasion of argument, but
simply the evidence of their own senses
to convince them of the wrong and ille-
gal actions of the Radical Congress, the
squandering of the public money and
the burden of taxation.
Resolred, That we unite with one hand
and one heart to restore social inter
course throughout our country to every
free lover of the Constitution, and cor
daily invite all of, our Radical friends
to meet with us at any and all times.
ReSOlred, That these resolutions with
the proceedings of this meeting be for
warded to the Wheeling REGISTER with
the request that they be published.
There being no other business before
the house, the resolutions were unani-
mously adopted and the meeting ad-
journed to meet on Friday, February
DIST, 1865, at l o'clock, L. NJ.
