II will also be borne in mind that the Convention first
notified wa. to be holden Casleon the 9Th inst,
and that The other meeting las, called to be holden
the l7h, The day prertoit,, at Rutland and so the
Conventions were thus holden
We have TO add also, another circumstance which may
have some bearing this subject
The Convention last called and first holden, noiih

We have been somewhat more particular in noticing
| the manner in which the meeting called at Rutland
and by whom, because we had understood that the

clined calling meeting, aud have paper before
protesting TO be 4nfmGsonie, in whio ii is inquired
etht, "Nr Hore did moi call The ADORE mentioned Con-
rsniion chairman, &c. "in consequence Of The other
members Of Ii, committee r.flsing 10 act ruth him ?"
We have simply narrated these facts for the consider
alton of the Freemen of this county that they may judge
of the wonderful masnanmty and fairness Of the pro-
ceedngs the Part Of tho fhe meeting at Rut-
land and tho proceedings Of that meeng-and whether
they think such course calculated to produce that
harmony which sdesred by large portion of those who
now pas. on 10 n'ce the Convention holden n,
Csseton. This meeting far better attended than
could have been reasonably expected from the busy sea
of the year. II composed mostly of those who
called ,hemseve. Wings including however, some who
claim to be Autmssop. and the meeting was in every
respec, highly respectable, constituting nearly fifty mem
bers from various parts Of the county.
The reader here referred the proceedings Of the
Convention, and in submitting the gentlemen therein
named candidates TO the freemen Of this county 1.-TWO
Of which il will be substituted in the room Of
two others named in the Rutland ticket we shall take
the liberty to state briefly the motives with which the
Css,leton Convention Rctuated.
In the onset BODY of men could have manifested
more undssuised regret that tho nomination at Rutland
the day before, had been such they could approve
Of Notwithstanding the objectionable manner in which
i, was gotten up) having strong desire to harmonic
with that meeting and the members with which il wa.
composed But To sttnmr, TO echo the whole Of tina,

IN favor Of the pursued both before the
who reported the ticket ard before the
substantially these - That the Wings throughout the
state 10 order 10 produce harmony the party opposed
10 the and measures Of this Obnoxious Admnstra
ion, and Van Buronism had heretofore yielded every
thing thst could have been asked desired. To be
frank, they had yielded much that they had psray
zed Il driven Of lie friends into the ranks of the
enemy All the National aud State nomination. made
by the Anims'onIc party last fall, had been seconded
and acquiesced in by the Whiss-snd MIR Howe, who
IT would appear had put himself IN the TO be nomi-
mated Senator OF the late Convention at Rutland
had already been nominated Elector Of President
and Wee President by the wings, and nationally
supposed that 10 the present condition Of parties in h
State being morally certain that this and no other tick
Ell could succeed without the corporation Of the Whig
would be satisfactory 10 Mr. Zimri Howe 10 have their
support Tor the latter distinguished pos, without push
ing himself as further trial upon their generosity
II was also well uoder,,ool at th, Convention ,ha,
the nominating committee At Rutland, somewha'

II was further agreed ct the Cssleton Conveuto n thai
due attention should he paid to talent, making up

right TO expect that this branch Of our Leg ,lstur,
should be made up with possessing suitable quslh
