are similarly prosecuted, to meet ut all early
day, say February 10th, to consider what is
best to be done to resist or to avoid the CO.
lamities sought to be put upon us for politi-
cal opinion.

be sent to the President of the United States
our Representatives in Congress, and to

who Join the clubs be treated as Democrats.
'Resotred, That the Executive Committee
suggest that every Democrat in the County
be earnestly requested not to give any en-
ployment or patronage in any manner to
such men as were prominent Republicans
party or local leaders in the recent election,
and that all assistance and encouragements
be withheld from them.
"Resolrcd, That the treatment of the rank
and file of the Republican party be left un-
acted upon by our people for the present,
and that after the 1st day of January next,
if General Hampton is inaugurated Govern
Or our people should be magnanimous to
the rank and file of the Republicans of this
County, and that they be employed upon
such differences between them and Demo-
Gratis as may be fixed upon by the different
clubs to secure just, deserved and pronl-
ised advantage to those who voted the DEM
ocratic ticket.
'Resolued, That with view to carrying
out the foregoing recommendation we sug-
gest that complete list of all the voters in
the late election be published forthwith in
pamphlet or circular form that the name
of every Democrat be printed in one list, by
precinct, with the letter (Wl or (C) to denote,
white or colored, and that the names OF
every Republican be printed in another list,
by precincts, with the letter (W) and lC) to
denote white and colored, and that the
names of all Republican leaders be dis
tinguished from the rank and file of the
party by having an asterisk opposite to
them, and that each club designate who are
such leaders in the bounds.
RESOLVED, That we recommend that the
clubs proceed Immediately to enroll the
names of all colored men who are willing to
join our organization, and that all who Join
before the 1st day of January next be treat
ed as Democrats in the contracts to be made
for the coming year."
And whereas since the above resolutions
have been circulated among the clubs many
of us have been thrown out Of employment
because we will continue to be Republicans,
