for the nomination, and the delegates OF
several counties had been instructed in
his favor, but to secure harmony in the
party had magnanimously withdrawn
his name before the first ballot, and was
intending to throw his whole strength
into the canvass of the district and State.
His devotion to Republican principles
was well shown by his remark to us in

county:
Hon. John A. Bingham commenced
the Congressional canvass in Belmont

addressed large meetings at Flushing,

Last evening he addressed an enthusi-
astic meeting of two thousand people at

gathering ever assembled here. Judge
Bingham made one of his ablest and
most eloquent speeches. discussing the
questions of reconstruction, finance and
taxation, and dissecting the Democratic
platform in most mastery manner. 1t
was well received throughout.
During the afternoon beautiful Grant

feet was raised. The whole affair passed

any disturbance to mar the proceedings.
Colonel G. l.. Poorman and Captain L..

ADDITIONAL MEETINGs.-We publish
this week large list of additional meet,
ings, and we hope the Union men ol
each location where u meeting is an
nounced for, will make an effort to get
the voters of both parties TO attend. A
full discussion of the questions at issue is
essential to a proper understanding Of
them and our speakers are devoting their
time to that discussion. Our meetings
thus far have been well attended. The
skies look bright, and an active, vigorous
campaign will give us victory. The op-
position, ,demoralized and disappointed by
the result of the New York Convention,
are attempting to convince the credulous
that they are making converts, but their
reports of gains are all with reference to
some other portion of the county than
that i'm which they are at the time.
In Barnesville they talk about gains
in Pease and Richland Townships, and
at Bridgeport they talk of gains in War
rem Township. We assure our readers
that these gains are all imaginary; the
cufrens is towards the Republican party,
and here in st. Clairsville, down in
Pease Township. over in Warren Town
ship in short nearly every part of the
county, we are making accessions from
the Democratic party.
