CAUCUS

We find the following remarks upon Caucus
nominations in the New-York Statesman: a
paper that for impartiality and moderation is
worthy of all praise. We regret that we can
not at present transfer the whole article to
our columns; but we have on file an essay on
the same subject from the Lexington Reporter.
which we hope to publish next week.
"Let it not be said that caucus NOM
nations. in the sense they are under
stood by modern politicians, are not
incompatible with a free and independ-
ent exercise of the elective privilege.
The doctrine set up reduces its support
ers to dilemma. Either a caucus is
a mere nullity, or it impairs the right
of suffrage. If the electors do not
pledge themselves to abide by its de-
cisions, then it is a useless ceremony;
if they do pledge themselves to acqui-
esce in its recommendations, than the
elective privilege is surrendered to a
few, and the people voluntarily convert
themselves into mere machines, TO be
moved and controlled by the will Of
a superior. They may indeed 60 to
the polls and vote; but they must put in
such ballot, as their masters dictate. ;,

RERK SHIRE SHOW. &c

The annual Show and Fair of the Ag-
ricultural Society of Berkshire, were
holden in Pittsfeld, on the LIST. and cd.
of October. The extensive arrange
ments of this long established Society
we're executed with the usual punctuali-
ty. The show of animals was very fine,
offering proof Of increasing improve
ments where excellence had before
been attained. The Household Manu-
features we're few, in comparison with
the splendid exhibitions of formeryears F.;
but the occurrence was probably acct
dental.
The reports and awards of Premiums
have not yet been published.
The Ploughing Match excited I'M
common interest, and was witnessed by
increased numbers.
