Mr.. JEFFERSON'S THOUGHTS ON A
CONVENTION.

Copy ola letter received by S. Kercheval Esq dated
"MoNIIcELLo, Sept. S, 1895.
aSir-Your letter of Aug. l6, is just receiv-
ed: that which wrote To you under the ad-
dress Of H. Tomkinson was intended for the
author Of the pamphlet you were kind as TO
send me, and therefore, In your hands, found It's
true destination, but / must beseech you Sir,
not to admit possibility of its being publish
ed; many good people will revoltfrom lis doc
trines, and my wish is to offend nobody: to
leave to those who are TO live under it the set
Element Of their own constitution, and to pass
in peace the remainder Of my time. /. those
opinions are sound, they will occur to others,
and will prevail by their own weight, without
the aid of names. / am glad TO see that the
Stanton meeting has rejected the idea OF IL
mited Convention; the article however, nearest
nv heart is the division OF the Counties into
Wards, these will be pure elementary republics,
the sum Of all which, taken together. composes
the state, and will make OF the whole true de-
mocracy as TO the business OF the Wards, which
is that OF nearest daily concern: the affairs OF
the larger sections Of countries, OF states, and
Of the Union, not admitting personal transac-
ton by the people, will be delegated TO agents
elected by themselves; and representation VIII
thus be substituted where personal action be-
comes impracticable. Yet, even over these re-
preventative organs, should they become cor
rupt and perverted, the division into wards,
constituting the people, in their wards, a regu-
larIv organized power, enables them by that or
ganization, TO crush, regularly aud peaceably,
the usurpa,ions of their unfaithful agents, and
rescues them from the dreadful necessity Of
doing il Internationally. In this way we shall
be as republican as large society can be: ane
secure the continuance Of purity to our govern
ment by the salutary, peaceable and regular
control of the people, No other depositories
of power have ever yet been found which CID Q,
not end in converting 10 their own proht the
earnings of those committed to their charge
George III. in execution of the trust conhded
TO him, has, within his own day, loaded the
Inhabitants OF Great Britain with debts equal
to the whole fee-simple value of their island
