ernl Harmony-Geod Nominations, etc..
All OF the ward caucuses last evening were
fully attended and the deepest interest and
| best feeling manifested. There were eager
| contests in several wards for the nominations,
| but in every instance, so far as we can learn,
there was determination to support the ticket
nominated. The result promises we'll for the
| Republicans on Monday.
The Republicans of Ward held
| one of their largest and most harmonious eau
cuses. The present members of the city gov
| eminent from that ward were re-nominated by
reclamation. Before the caucus had finished
| its business, a letter was received from Mr..
Brunei declining to be candidate on the
ground that the duties of the Office were too
great tax upon his time and caused him to
neglect his own affairs to such an extent that
| he cannot in justice to himself accept. Colonel
Thompson suggested the name of Lorenzo
Taylor, Esq. Mr.. Taylor suggested the name
of Charles FL. Plummer, Esq, and Mr.. Walden
named H. T. Plummer, Esq. All of the gen.
tlemen named declined to be candidates, the
two last declaring in the most positive terms
that they could not accept. Col. Thompson
moved to proceed to ballot, which was done.
AS soon as votes could be written, the ballot
was taken which resulted in the nomination of
Mr.. Taylor, by vote of 50 to 10 for all others.
The announcement was received with applause
and the nomination was made unanimous.
In Ward the Republicans held one of the
largest caucuses ever held by the party and, at
the same time, one of the most harmonious.
The Republicans on Munjoy are thoroughly
awake and we'll united. They mean business.

Alderman, receiving 1872 votes to q for Capt.
W. L. Dennison. The balance of the ticket
will be found elsewhere.
