| IMPORTANT NoTIcE.-The members Of the
Conservative Vigilance COMMITTEES are In.
formed that there win be meeting at the
Town Hall on Friday night. AS urgent
business connected with the success Of the
conservative party in the ensuing election

member will be present. Is there man
who will refuse one night for so patriotic g.
purpose. qs.'
|! ANOTHER IMPRovEMEET.--We are glad to
know that as soon as possible that arrange.
ments Will be made to put hall over the

has long been needed, and its building will
be needed with rejoicing by all classes Of
our toWnsmen. 80 "
LITERARY NoTIoB.-A movement is on
foot among our young men, and some old
ones too, for the reorganization on solid;
and secure basis of the old Philologian So
clety, which o few years ago Numbered
within it's ranks the brightest intellect in
our midst. Manchester needs such an.
asylum tor her young men, for BY this
means they Will be kept out of evil COM
pany and allow time for the improvement
of their minds. ;Hs~ ~
{ To THE ME0HANIcs.-Will the mechanics
of Manchester allow themselves to be In
weighed into any secret Radical concern for
the purpose of dividing the Conservative
vote and throwing the town into the hands
of Radicaism?' We think not that labor
can do without capital, nor uice uersa. Let
every true Conservative, regardless of con-
dition, support the regular nominees, a ma
jority of whom are mechanics.
The New DISTRICT. - We assure our
friends in this quarter that every effort
looking to the improvement Of their condi-
tion will be made both by the present and
every future board which the honest indus
try, intelligence, and wealth of Manchester
may elect. Come out like men and sustain
the Conservative ticket.

that he was resident Of Savannah, Ga;
was q member of the Legislature of that
State, and having been appointed mem.
business connected with the State, had been
in Washington, and having made his ar.
rangements to return, applied at the ticket
Office for ticket to Savannah, Ga, and re.
marked to the agent that if the first class

him through ticket to Savannah for S30
| This was on the 10th of February, 1869.
The next morning he went on board the

where he was, and would there remain
The captain then told him he must go, and
elected him from the cabin down to the
other deck. Simms refused to 60 into the
cabin designated by the captain as the
proper place for him, and remained on deck
