names OF eighteen gentlemen, whom they recommend
suitable persons to be supported Delegates nj the cleo
ton to be held THIS DAY and To- MORROW
In making this selection the Committee have discarded
all private feelings and have looked with single eve TO
Tie formation OF ticket which should give general salts
faction and combine the requisite character experience
ana talent, with deep stake in the welfare OF the com
munl'y' In bringing forward the of several gen.
uSnen whose age and revolutionary services mic Int seem
10 cnutie them to exemption from further service they
nave not been insensibe of the sacrifice which thew
caed upon these gentlemen TO make; but il seemed to
your Committee peculiarly appropriate that these brave
men TO whom we are indebted for the liberties we enoy
should again come forth for their preservation that thew
iot no hesitation in making that appeal to their patriotism
whlch thcy rejoice to say has been fearcssy and
promptly
At the head of Ticket will be found the name of one
The oldest soldiers of the Revolution companion of
aSnngton who took up the heights of Dorches
ecr anu 0y alI them down when the last gun fred
oh ue Piahs OF carolina Next TO him, stands the only
survivor OF the Battle OF Fort Moue ga most esmable
ciZen whose modesy Is equaled only by his worth and
VINO stands forth now, lie did in TO jealous supporer
OF the rights and liberties of of his country; and
win these stands who in his early youth wa, the
companion oil Marion, aud who crowns long and
uselu lie by generous devotion TO the great cause in

SIS Is unquestionably the important and
mat has ever arisen in the history of our Country
Inc ongcontinued and papable violations of the cons

against which we have been for many wears peion
ing and demonstrating in vain, has length imposed npon
us The painful necessity of invoking the Sovereign Aubo

and the preservation of dearest rights. The question
is now to be decided whether ours is indeed conGeracv
oil slcty limited powers, whether we live under CON
SO"a!ea Government deriving its powers, from the
constitution but It's will, and claiming and cxerci,in
the right oil binding the States in all whatsoever
more solemn and important question has certainly never

rejoice mat 1t IS to be decided by the collected wisdom of
The whole State, by the people acting in their highest so
VerelgncaPacy through their Delegates in Convention

completely Identified with your own and in whose wis
