Why thej chairman was djoiyotl in iret'inc:!, out his call, we do not profess Io j account for, as we rejjf-.rd this as a , matter of no concern to us. or any j other democratic club, inasmuch as the constitution provides iu ( plain and specific lamruajie for a!! clubs to meet and rcorganiz * in th> last Saturday in April of eaeii , election year provided, however. thai they may organize on any oth er day in the same week, upon a call made by thecoiinty chair.n ta , and published two weeks previ >us ly. Weconten I that the notice , published l?v the conn' v cli lir uao to the clubs to meet am! organize under the provisions of the c-m-ti sution is nothing more !han a re- , minder; therefore, seeing our duly plainly, under a clear interpretation of the constitution, we met and organized. Every thing went along nicely,and we knew not but that the olive branch of peace had been cat and was to lo ver about us; but by chance of night a message bird came come forth from the pandemonium o{ this great political triumvirate and told the ne.vs that the result of Unmeet ing was received with at disfavor by these rulers, and the order went lorth to herald the forces and send iu a eonli->!:n;_ del elation, and the whole thin_ would be knocked into a cocked hat. We could not but discredit all that we had heard and went beiore tha convention and asked for admission as it were, backed by the strong arm of the constitution o the party; but the die had bee.i cast, the mandate had been i- - 1 2 i sured and iIk* premise must lie fulfilled, ;111v 1 beiiijr fulfilled, one i f'he nn?t over-bearing and tyrannical episodes ever known in the councils of the democratic party took ]>lace. l>eing placed in this very indefinite position by the action oft!-: > eon volition, we can truly exclaim -where are we at f" l! it was the nnrnose oi the rule or ruin ('netion that predomi nated the convention to drive us from the told of the democratic party, lor persona! gain or any other iva> ?n. we can assure them that their purpose 11a - fallen far short of its aim. We contend that we were either riaht or wrong isi the organ izaliou of the (ireeleyvilie democratic (dub and the coiiventiosi should have had the manhood to reach a decision that won! 1 make clear and definite our position. We would mist certainly have abided tlie result of the >ame. The oiler by the convention to devidc the delegation was, we presume. .....I. ? i. in ui'j >??jrn ui IUII we did not, and cou.d not accept >uch a proposition, as its purpose was too plainly written upon its tare. For the lack o;' courage and manhood on the part of the con volition to a ju>! this matter, we have been forced into another or zaniziM n with the same result that attended the lirst.

A call was rea l on the opening of the meeting for the organization of a club by those who believe the dispensary to be the best soiuiun of the whisky question.
