was held last evening. Or motion OF Mr.
Brown. committee of five was appointed from
the Executive Committee to prepare for the
ratification meeting on the 18th ms. On mo.
ton, the ward nominations for the year were
assigned for the next meeting. Mr.. Crane of.
fered the following resolutions, which We're
unanimously adopted:
Resoired, That the Republicans of the Fourth
Ward view with sorrow and Indignation the
conduct Of those Senators who were elected by
Republican votes, and who now, needless OF
the almost unanimous voice Of their constitn.
ents, indicate that they will vote for, the ac-
quittal Of the apostate, Andrew johnson, who
stands before the civilized world con yicted of
high crimes and misdemeanors.
Resolred. That any Republican Senator OF
the United States, who, at this hour Of peril,
deserts the party that placed him in power by
voting for the acquittal Of Andrew Johnson,
will be forever Infamous, and will deserve the
execration of every lover of his country.
Resolred, That we impeach Senators Fessen /.
den, Trumbull, and Grimes, at the bar of Jus
tice and humanity as traitors, before whose
guilt the ipfamy Of Benedict Arnold becomes
resFectabd4x and decency.

THE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS the names pre-
scented by their friends at the Conservative Cen
Nentlon. as nominees for the Man orally. was
that of DIR. John b. Blake. We learn that
when DIR. Blake was called upon, and request
ed to allow his name TO be used as a candidate
Tor the Mayoralty, he positively declined, upon
the ground that ii would occasion a great sac.
rifce OF his personal interests. A certain con.
tingency was then mentioned. ana he was
asked, IN the event of IFS happening. if he
would not permit his name to be used. He re-
plled tnat such contingency was very impro-
bable; but, should il occur. he would feel him
self bound to yield his own inclination to the
wishes OF his fellow-Citizens, and make any
sacrifice for the good cause they espoused. As
the contingency referred to did not occur his
nomination in the Convention was unauthor.
lied, so far as he is concerned DIR Blake, we
understand holds Mr. Given in high estima-
ton, having known him from boy hood. and
will cordially support his nomination.
