UNDER THE HEAD OF NEW BUSINESS.
Mr.. Dutrow moved to reconsider the vote Of the
Exchange at the last meeting BY which the
Wenger brand Of -four was inserted in the Price
Current, and upon It's passage also moved that the
came be stricken from the list.
Mr.. Ream spoke In opposition to the motion,
and asked Mr.. DutroW what was his object In
having It expunged.
not think 1t was right to advertise any particular
brand OF -four in the Price Current.
MI. Ream, the agent for the -four, said that It
was not his object to advertise it. for It had suf
hcient reputation already, and.was second to none
in the market, and he doubted the right Of the
Exchange TO reconsider action on such an i'm
tutioDally provided.
The Chair decided that the consideration Of the
question there and then was in order, and on the
putting Of the question IL was voted that the
WeDger be stricken from the list.
Mr.. Ream moved TO reconsider the vote by
which the Wenger was eXpuuged from the Price
Current, (which motion was not seconded,) and
asked the three gentlemen who voted In the

ON HIS DIGNITY.
Mr.. Spindle did not recognize the right Of Mr..
Resm, or that OF any gentleman, TO demand the
reasons for voting In the affirmative. Mr..
wenger would not want It quoted, for It would
put up the price Of wheat In Rockingham county.
Mr.. Ream said that in an Exchange all Ques-
tions were expected TO be discussed freely from q
for the purpose Of bringing out the fullest ex.
preston, and It was not case in which Q man
was called to account in personal matter. The
affecting the price Of wheat in Rockingham
county lies in this-that there are one hundred
or more mIllers In the county, who say 70 the

valid, and his pstroniLing argument was not ap-

vented any gentleman's speaking more than once
