Commissioner that day from my own ward. , I. went to the .officeassoon as I could and .fonxid that one had been refused and one granted. There had been no: remonstrance stint in against them. I.talked with the Cam missioners and asked them if the matter bad to be pushed•forward so fast. They said it could be delayed a little,while. I went round the ward and tried to get the feeling of the people manifested in the matter. I also thought Pd tryto get the woman who had secured one license to give it up but failed in every argument, although I -used a pecu niary one • at that. Just.- as I was turning away from her-she said: "I suppose you think I am a very ;bad womalt in trying to get my-" license. I said I didn't know how she thought, ' but it certsinly_ appeared that way to •me. SILO said, "No; I am not a bad woman, and it's not wrong for me to get my li cense. Ism a good woman. I pray everyday: Go to church regular.

The general joy was becoming infectious and several sedate delegates who- had' modestly retired to remote corners of the room were about to corns .forward, when an irrepressible suddenly jumped up and announced that no satis factory pledge had been given.; He wanted the jeandidate to pledge himself to %Rune strict and unmistakable course. Consideranie consternation was created by this bombshell. and' a general mur• mur of disapproval was heard, when A.Y'INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE.

THE CAMPAIGN-HOW TO CONDUCT IT. The Convention was again entertained with congratulatory remarits„by Prof. L. H. Eaton and others who were cheered and encouraged by the signs of pre. are= on every side, and hoped that the old and young would unite In helping forward the good cense. A , general dis cussion then ensued. lan the conduct of the campaign during which. • Mr. Travelli gave some interesting re miniscances of the manner In which tiae last one was carried on. He thought there was little use in meeting, noud. nating candidates and passing resolutions unless something was arranged for the proper carrying out of the plan. At the iast campaign a great fuss had been caeca. stoned for want of tickets. On the day they should have been distributed. after diligent inquiry he discovered therm in a store in Allegheny where they hut been left—to take care of themselves. He hoped some better organization would be had in the future, and that the whole county would be properly canvassed. Mr. Westfall moved that the Hawn. tire Committee be Instructed to prepare circulars, giving the,atatistics of intem.a perance in the county and throughout the State—these circulars to be generally distributed. , 131 r. Davidson thought a better plan would be to send out speakers. The cir culars in all probability would never be read, but people could be aroused by tallitaxperattiallY,to them.:._ A it Arosmss.
