Down, DEL, July 2+.-On account OF
the critical state Of affairs in the country
many growers were induced 10 remain at
their homes to-day, but without these .
large audience assembled in Court House
Hall ut 2 o'clock, showing by their gravity
that they realized the unenviable position
into which circumstances had forced them.
Every action WAS Of the mildest kind, and
what was looked forward to by our citizens
a. an exciting affair has passed OF
smoothly.
On motion of George W. Cummins, DR..
I. L, Adkins was elected chairman, W. E.
Appleton WAS chosen secretary.
Mr.. Green asked permission TO introduce
set of resolutions, when IL was decided
to refer all resolutions to committee Of
Ave.
The President appointed Samuel Town
send, E. r. Cochran, William Green, DR..
Ridpeley aud George w. Cummins the
committee, who afterward withdrew for
consideration of the resolutions presented.
Some gentleman then made reference to
a resolution requesting the Governor TO
form military company for the protec-
ton of the State in case of any disturb
ance.
Mr.. Townsend moved q committee of Ave
be appointed 70 go over the United States
to discover who was in the wrong. There
was no riot in Delaware and he supposed
Governor Cochran had the best judgment
in such matters when occasion required it.
DIR. Adkins said. that he was not no sure
that any words of sympathy with the rail-
roads would be out of place.
