2. This same conmiittee; at this their
first meeting, to appoint in each borough,
ivard or township, comi,Pitees composed
.13, 5 or 1 of the most ACTIVI.I Democrats,
to act as vigilance committees for their re
spective districts. • •
3: As soon as appointed, the ch\airman

convey to each individual member of the
township and wad committees, through a

should be, as early•as possible, to effect a

may_be_ effected either-by-living-access-to
the assessments, or through the combined
personallinnWledge of the'committee Men.
'5. After, this general classification iu.all

way they hope to render Abe extra session
odious:to the people. Unless the physical
strength of this factious, minority" gives

it is impossible to say-how long .the .ses

the opposition Wive not the good of the
Cinintry at heart, but are guided solely by
the wish of injuring the administration, I
need only call to ,your remerebrance the
fact, that, when the vote was taken upon
