i Forty delegates were in attendance atthe

the number. who endorsed Dr, W. n. Nor
ton tcoIoreI, who was nominated at the
September Convention, withdrew, leaving
eighteen delegates, who were friends of
Dr.W. W.T. Douglas (Ehite1. These eighteen,
though not quorum, went on to, transact
business, and nominated DIR. Douglas. The
twenty-five who had left then held another
meeting, and fully endorsed the action laf
the convention held in September; which
convention had nominated Norton.
It seems that Maddox, who represented
the State Central Commit tee, was denounced
Iand pretty well .chastised by Joe Cox, Of
Richmond, and by Senator Isaiah T.. Lyons
(eolored), Of Elizabeth City. The friends of
Norton now assert that they will not be
subject to the State Central Committee. 1t
is asserted that Douglas can command about
two hundred votes in the district and DR..
Norton several thousand. ;-s s,si ~, 4, .s.ti
n DIR. Norton was well known member of
the Constitutional Convention, and is q
colored man Of fair education and address,
and was an assistant surgeon in the United
States army during the war. Douglas Is a
physician, and OF a respectable family. And
thus matters stand In the First Congress
sional District between the Republican cam
didates. Norton claims, however, that this
was no convention, but simply q Republis
can meeting to ratify the action OF the
convention Of September. He says he does
not intend TO abide by its decision.

Monday Evening. June g. 1870.

A JOLLY QUEER JoKE.-Mayor John
sons salary was placed by the wise
Board Of Councilmen and Aldermen at
the small sum Of FIVE thousand dollars a
year two or three thousand more than
any other Mayor ever receiyed), upon
the unsolid ground that his Mayorship
was compelled by the city charter to act
as Police Commissioner, and now the
dull fools called ts{ payers are loosely
informed that his Worship is to throw
the burden off his shoulders and have a
Police Commissioner, at salary Of two
thousand dollars year, elected. Well,
this is jolly queer joke; but what bet
ter need men who are silly enough to put
MP with humbugiana at the rate of thous-
ands of dollars year expect2 What do
the Mayor or Councils care about what
the charter says2 Not a fig. If the
Mayor and his jolly Board we're abol-
ished, half million dollars a year could
be saved city taxpayers, and more pub
lie work than there is at present per
formed. Ii costs more to run the legis-
latiye and speculative machinery of the
Bluff than it does TO run the govern
mental machinery Of half dozen New
England States Talk of prosperity un
der such n system! BAH

WHERE'S That BANSER2-This is the
anniversary Of the capture of Memphis
by the gunboat feet A couple of years
ago il was the custom Of the Radicals to
have a big procession on this occasion
and bear big banner representing, in
sort Of a way. the engagement between
the gunboats and the cotton feet
Where's that banner7 Il was such a
splendid specimen Of the fine arts that it
would be a pity to have it slowed away
in the corner Of an old junk-shop.

ST. MARY's PIcNIc-A very pleasant
picnic is in progress at James Park for
the benefit of St Mary's (Catholic)
church. Every German ought to take a
lively interest in this affair, and go out
there this evening for the purpose Of
contributing something toward complete
ing church that, when finished, will
not only be an ornament to North Mem
phis, but great convenience to large

CoxrRAsr.-The gentlemanly manner
in when the ex-confederate soldiers Of
