But IT rs well for the country tina the other States
which were represented at Harrisburg, did not send
boys TO deliberate upon the highly important interests
OF our country. Men of age of extensive research of
wealth, and OF highly valuable characters moral and

[REMARKs-We arc not certain that the Mr.. Wells
who was "scnt to Harrisburg" is the same person
that edits the Hartford Times. We have however
been informed, and have heard much indignation
expressed in relation to such an appointment. IL we
are mistaken Mr. Wells the editor can inform lis unon
