Ienpe examination. An administrator Of The
law ought 10 be rewarded for the talents, the
integrity, and fidelity which he brings 10 the
public service, but should never be permit
led to hold public station when he fails to U"
mite the will with the ability to fill it for the
public good.
To the sixth question, I answer, yes, clearly.
The reasons are TOO obvious to render il neces-
sary to enlarge.
Allow me, gentlemen, to remark, in conclu>
sion, tha, have been long, arden'ly anc zeal.

although the approaching convention will be

late you upon the progress OF truth and Ius'ice
upon the prospect which opens upon US OF
eventually triumphing over long cherished
error and prejudice, and Of laying the founda-
tons Of the government Of our ancien, and be-
loved state in those PRINCIPLES, dear to the affec
tons, as they are identified with the best In.
teresis Of flee people. The only public body
Of which ever was member, was the con-
yen,ion that assembled at Stanton, in the year
1925, whittier accompanied my worthy friend
whose name is first on your lis. IT It has
contributed in any degree, as verify believe
it has, to the accomplishment Of our plans, to
have been honoured by the citizens OF Loudoun
with seat in il, will be one Of the most trea-
sured recolleclions Of my life.

of delegates, so Offensive to the feelings, end
so injurious to the interests, OF large maJori>
ty Of the people Of Virginia. The appori!on-
ment Of presentation to the numbers OF inc
free white population, will be the remedy LOT
this evil, and the only proper basis upon which
that matter can be placed.
The house of delegates have long 'hought'
might, with great advantage, be reduced 70 one
half it's presen, number. From this reduction
would result mol only great saving OF Poohc
money. but also a much more efficient legisla-
tive body.
In the general sentiment 10 favor OF rtform'
ING the executive department OF the govern
ment, I entirely concur. The council OF state,
I presume, will fall Of course, as an unnecessa-
~ appendage. My Impressions are IN favor
Of the election 81 the governor by the people;
and, would confer upon him, under the con-
s,itution,. some augmentation OF powers.
As to the judiciary, no man can estimate
more highly than myself, the principle OF us IN
dependence, willis, belive that some salutary
provisions may be adopted to secure 1urther
responsibility; and in certain cases OF oisaoiiity,
10 effect removal from office. have. myself,
long thought tina, our county court system re-
quired some important notifications.
And to your last query, reply, shat am IN
favor of migrating into The constitution pro-
vision for such amendments as may from alter
experience be fouod necessary. ..
Having thus, with the utmost candour' repii.
ed to the various inquiries oil the committee,
would remark, that, when we reflect that the
contemplated convention will be composed OF
men, repre- senting the various interests and o.
pinions Of our wide extended commonwealth,
and may be expected 10 embrace within its body
so much Of The wisdom, and experience, and
weight Of character which belong to II, it would
seem 10 be unwise that any man who Nigh, be
expected 10 take a part therein, should be
bound down by premature pledges to such e1-
tent as TO loose the benefit Of the consultations,
and discussions, which will shed light upon
every subject brought under examlnatlon.-ln
the conflict of opinions aud Of interests, which
must be found in such an assembly, something
of concession may be necessary on all sides 10
effect the object. The public good requires
then, that the representative should be left IN
! such cases to the exercise Of a sound discre-
ton; keeping, however, always in view, the
great principles he has been sent 10 MAINTAIN.
forbear to add more than an expression OF
my regret, that, in justice 10 myself, should
have found it necessary to trespass so far upon
the patience Of The Committee, and Of the great
respect with which am, gentlemen, your ooe-
dienl servant,
