We very willingly give place 70 the following brief
communication from agendeman in remote part Of
the county, and fully accord with him that fOresta
ling Of public opinion with respect 10 any individual
previous to the holding Of the County Convention
should take place. The names Of several gentlemen
are mentioned in connection with this high OfRces Ell
Iher Of whom we could with entire cOrdiality support
and we believe the same may be said Of the whole
wing party Of the county: q" -
Mr. EditOr-I should hope that no premature effort
win be made tOtoresta public opinion on candidate
for the next Congress for this county. As various
names will probably be presented to the County Con-
ventiOn, each having his peculiar claims it is
important that such Convention be composed Of
delegates unpiedged to any man. that they may inn
partially canvass the claims Of every presented
Iothem. and nominate such candidate a. viii com
mand the united strength OF the opponents Of the pre-
sent administration. Such course gives US a Wing
Congressman, and no mistake. JIG.

where majority Of The members are locofocos bill
was also introduced about the same time as in the
