Nomination TO the Conpension-It will be observod
that meeting of the people of Richmond, is called
tor Monday noxt; at which it is proposed that thew
snail make their oon nominations of persons TO serve
them IN convention. This is the true republican
course, opposed to the idea that the people are not
competent to make suitable selections and affirmative
OF the propost ion, that they Themselves tho best
Judges OF their wants, wishes and interests.
without meaning to throw the slightest imputaton
upon those wis have deputed agents to Williams
burg to make nominations for the city of Richmond
for We know their individual purity too wen to
infer any thing in the slightest degree derogatory to
their motives-we must needs say, that these depu-
ties will not represent the people here We are in
formed npon good authority that the whole number
OF freeholdors who acted in'the meeting on Monday
night, was less than 2o-about seventeenth part of
the freehoders of the city. We acknowledge in the
most unlimited manner, the rights of any number of
ciizens to assemble and deliberate upon public mat
ters and we therefore concede the perfect right of
the meeting on Monday evening, to do what they did
nevertheless, as the subject of sending deputies to
Williamsburg had been considered at a previous
meeting which the whole people of Richmond were
invited to attend-as q large number of them did at
tend and the project was most decsively neeatived
we consder~it somewhat disrespectful, that very
small minority should persist after this manifestation
ofpubiic opinion, in appointing agents to make nomi
nations for those who thus uncquivocally declared
that they wanted agents to make nominations for
them, but would make them for themselves All this
time, we admit the right, but merely question the
propriety and the policy, ofexercslng it. Something
is due to public opinion, when the matter in hand,
processes to be done for the public veal qhe advo
Gates of the measure, defend it upan the GROUND of
its tendency to produce concert; but we should ina
CINE that its ineficacy for this end was manifest the
moment the public showed SO decided repupnance to
It, Instead of concert, persistng in it, can have no
effect but to widen divisions and that which at first
was claimed to be done only for the purpose of pro-
curing harmony, now that it is persisted in by small
minority, in opposition to the ncnutions of large
majority begins to look like attempt by that minor
ty to dictate to the majority.
We make these observations in the first n1aco
that they may exert What influence they deserve III
they deserve any in inducing abandonment Of the
Williamsburg Congress; OF if they fail in that. 70
apPrlse the District that the five gentlemen deputed
from this cny, are not the Representatives of the
People, but Of fifteen twenty freehoders only and
that Of course, their opinions of Who should or who
should not be nominated to the Convention are bv M
means to be regarded as evidence Of the wishes n
