been the most economical - we have re

THE FARO z.

We attended the Republican nominating
convention, held at the Court House on Sat
urday evening, for the purpose of nominal
ing a candidate for Mayor, with the intention
of reporting the proceedings. But it was
such farce that we spare the feelings Of
Our Republican friends. The majority OF
the Convention most unquessionably wanted
some other man than Murdoch, and so
empnshcaiiy stated. But they were crowded
oack by the decination of Mr. jackson, and
NJ urdocks friends were the winners. A very
weak nomination.
