THE DEMOCRAT.

PUBLISHED WEEKLY BY T. & P. McDonald. PLATT McDonald, :::::::: Editor. PLYMOUTH. INDIANA Thursday, July 25, 1861. Republican County Convention The convention of the irrepressibles last Saturday, was one long to be remembered; not that anything of importance was done, but that it was the visible remnant of the late Republican party. The ringing of the Court House bell called the faithful together. As there had not been a show in town "this summer," we resolved to go-and we did. Arriving at the Court House we found the seats nearly full, although many more might have been accommodated. We never saw less enthusiasm in any convention, great or small. Those in attendance looked as though they were momentarily expecting a gall- ing fire from a masked battery, and were preparing themselves to say, when the fire /did/ come,"We didn't commence it." The convention was organized by the appointment of S. R. Coons, President, and H. G. Thayer, Secretary. The committee on resolutions, after a protracted session, reported a series which were preceded by the reading of those passed by the Democratic convention. When published, we may have something to say about them. It was a noticeable feature of this momentous occasion, that there was no competition for the different nominations-a very good evidence that they believed they will be beaten, as there is always a great scramble among them when there is a chance for office. There was so little interest manifested in the proceedings, that one gentleman suggested the propriety of appointing a committee for the purpose of finding out if there was anybody who wanted the nomination for the office of Commissioner. Mr. Houghton, the candidate for Recorder, is a gentleman of good character, and probably well enough qualified. There are hundreds of other men in the county just as well qualified, and none more deserving, and among the number the /Democratic/ candidate. F. H. Hall, the candidate for Surveyor, we have// Mi-.etof r s) kcn of in fonncctioii wir! surveying and hao no, ehii.ged oar opinion of his ouaufic.itioti".

About 1 o'clock at night they were nnexpect- ' rdly attached at this point by a largo force under Gen. Beauregard in person. A battle ensued of about an hnur'a duration, our troops maintaining their position with thc ! utmost obstinacy. The loss on both nidca was immense, many superior officers falling wliile gallantly leading Oil I and cheering and enrourngin" their men.
