MANCHESTER NEWS,

The Third Ward Meeting.-Saturday
night the sovereigns OF the Third Ward
assembled in full force The meeting was
called by the City Central Committee for
the purpose Of electing an alternate to the
Congressional Convention, and also for the
purpose OF instructing the delegate, Mr..
Socrates Brooks. At g O'Clock the meet
ing was called to order by the president,
Mr.. James Buchanan, who moved that oil
PARTIES who were not voters in the ward
should be excluded. After some discus
sion the vote was taken, and resulted: 10
for expulsion and 19 for remaining.
On motion OF "Dinks," the visitors were
assigned seats in the southeastern portion
of the hall.
Mr.. Brooks then vacated the chair, and
called Mr. F. C. D. Farmer to take his place,
and Mr.. John r. Cogbill to act as secre-
tary.
Chief-of-P Polcc Lipscomb was appointed
sergeant-at-arms, and also to call OH the
names of the voters Of the ward present,
and after doing so folty-nine were found In
attendance. This being settled, motion
was made that an alternate be elected.
Agreed to. Captain William Whitworth
was nominated, and elected by acclamatlon:
Captain William WhitWorth then offered
| the f0ll0Wlng resolution:
RESOLVED, That the delegate to the Con-
gressional Convention OF the Third Con-
gressional district from the Third Ward OF
the city of Manchester, and in bis absence
the alternate, be. and is hereby instructed
to cast the vote OF the Third Ward for the
denomination OF Gilbert G. Walker as q
member OF the Federal Congress.
This resolution caused considerable dis
cussion among several parties. DR.. Mon
teiro was opposed to instruction; he thought
the ward ought to elect men whom they
could trust, who could carry out their views
without instruction.
Captain Whitworth replied to DR.. Mon
teiro, and said il the men had right to
elect delegate they had the same right to
instruct him.
DR.. Monteiro replied, but thought his
friend, Captain Whitworth, misunderstood
his remarks. He was good Conservative,
but he was opposed to 4 delegate going TO
convention with his hands tied.
The resolution was amended that the
delegates vote for Walker as long as there
is any chance for him. The vote was taken
by ayes and noes, and resulted in the dele
gate being instructed by A ayes to noes.
Afterwards DR.. MonteirQs moved that II be
made unanimous; which was carried.
Mr.. Brooks on leaving the chair LETT the
room, but returned before any vote was
taken, and was reported to the secretary by
the sergeant-at-arlns. Mr.. Brooks declined
to let his name be recorded, and informed
your reporter that he did not intend to obey
the instructions Of the Convention.

will have employment again, after months
idleness, is most welcome news to these
men. The Old Dominion Nail-Works are

manufactures in the South, and their goods
are popularly and eXte tensively known all oyeI
