The central committee have had some d5cp,,x ~;
making cut committees for those COMMITTEES which had no
representation in the convention. They have been
co'hfeiiea I'D many instances, having personal know
eo9e OF some oil tie Counties 10 pick up such ntr,
se"cs' as PERSONS themselves not very well informed
could furnish. II is therefore very possible nav Ger,
''"' '"a 'hey have omitted the names of many gen.
temen whose standing and Influence they should have
been glad 10 enlist, and probable, that in some In
