length the manner and time Of holding the Con

last meeting that the primaries should be held
upou the 18th and the Convention upon the

that adopted year ago, namely. one delegate
for every 200vofes cast for Tilden and Hendricks
in 1878: Considerable discussion was had upon
the question whether there should be one poll
in0-place in leach ward, country town, and dis
