publican Convention Of the First district

Ger C,lrlett was made president. L. c. Bris-
tow, OF MiddleseX, was nominated for Con-
gress over L.: r: Stewart, Of Richmond
county,, and j. W. Cowgirl, of Lancaster.
There was division of sentiment among
the whites as to. the ipropriety OF a nomina-
ton, in view OF the independent candidacy
OF Judge Critcher,; but the eolored brethren
insisted on straight-eut Republican nomi-
nation with great yehemepce, and threw al
most their whole strength for Bristow. I'd. !.
The common expression OF opinion on the
nomination is that it renders certain the re-
election of Douglass but" will secure full
Republican presidential vote. 'ri .'
