A large and enthusiastic meeting of the democracy of Washington township, was held at the School House, at the foot of Plane No. 4, on Tuesday evening of last week, and, notwithstanding it had been called upon short notice, the turn out was large, and the best feeling pervaded the assemblage.
The meeting was organized by the appointment of JOHN O'NEILL as President, JOHN LONG and WM. LATIMORE, Vice Presidents, and Peter Dougherty and John M'Colgan Secretaries.
Messrs. Smith and Cessna, the democratic candidates for the Legislature were present, and upon being called upon, addressed the meeting at length. In the course of their remarks, they were repeatedly cheered, and we learn that the whole proceedings passed off in such a manner as to assure us that the democracy of this sterling township will nobly do their duty at the polls on Tuesday next. The meeting adjourned with cheers for Smith, Cessna, and the whole democratic ticket, the success of which is certain if our friends in other townships but rally and organize for the approaching contests as well as we are assured they will do in Washington.
