York, that they had been selected to
lead the gold democrats.
Il regret that | can not accept your
invitation To attend the notification
meeting on Saturday evening. AS a
democrat, devoted to the principles
and integrity of our party, would be

feet cheering and yelling, and they
kept it up for nearly ten minutes, wind

When Senator Palmer was shown
