Chatham county was held last evening at St. Andrews’ Hall. The hall was well filled, though the attendance was not as large as was anticipated, but this was probably owing to the very disagreeable and inclement weather. The meeting was called to order by Col. R. E. Lester, Chairman, who made a brief address concerning the Approaching election, reviewed the changes made by the new constitu tion, and stated that members for the Legislature would be voted for at the same election upon tlie ratification or non-ratification of the constitution, and hence the necessity for making nominations. He then unnoticed the meeting ready for business. Mr. E. A. Silvo, Secretary pro ieni. of the Executive Committee, acted as Secretary of tlie meeting Gen. A. R. Lawton arose and in a few remarks explanatory of/the de parture from the usual custom, which was adopted out of regard for the feelings of the Chairman, who, under the circumstances, could not be ex pected to make the appointment of a committee, presented the following resolutions: Resolved, That this meeting ap point six delegates and six alternates to cast the vote of this county in the convention to he held at Eden (No. 2 Central Railroad), on the 24'h in- could not be entrusted to more worthy hands, and we would hail with gratification his return to the position which ho lias filled with such signal ability and honor: Resolved, That we earnestly re commend to the General Assembly his re election, as a public testimonial ot his fidelity, and of our appreciation of his services.
