oc.atic Territorial Convention, to meet at Iowa CT
y on the first Monday in June next for the NOM
nation Of Candidate for Delegate to Congress- was
recommended to which all the counties in the Ter

and give us an assembly on that day which will DO
honor TO the great cause in which we are all enga

BY CIRCULATING THE DOCUMENTS
This is the only way it can be efectually DONE Let
every Democrat be induced to take paper, as the
means Of spreading truth, knowledge, and the cor
rection Of falsehoods whenever set on foot by our
enemies, and ali will go well-a knowledge Of what
our friends in other parts doing is essential in or

We take pleasure in stating that our subscription
list with the exertons Of but few friends is daily
increasing. Wherever it has been received, we get
good account Of it, in the shape of additional
Names But three persons have as yet ordered it
discontinued which is source qualification to us,
as proof that our course has met the appreciation
Of our political friends far, as well as of quite
number Of wings, who acknowledge its merits.
Rouse up! Again we say, circulate the docu-
ments and oil will be we'll
