several negro houses were torn down, and

JOURNAL.
SATURDAY, SEPT. IS, 1S4I.

The Argus Of the 9Th, inst, has an article
on the subject Of the next congressional rep
~resentation from this State, which in some
particulars, differs from the views, We enter.
tain and have heretofore expressed on this
subject. In the main It'll in,he right spirit, and
contains some wise suggestions, in relation
to the convention, which j, is proposed 10
call for the purpose Of nominating Candi'
dates for Congress.
We should be ready to adopt the plan,
proposed by the Argus as to the number oil
Candidates, TO be nominated If We thought
i, possible, that Congress would not pass the
appor,ionment Bill before April or May at
farthest. From present indications the
Extra Session Of Congress will dis
pose Of a large portion Of business, which
would have fallen upon the next Session,
and if the system Of gagging now in vogue
at Washington, shall be adopted at another
Session, we cannot conceive how Congress
can sit longer than the first Of June. There
will be nothing TO prevent immediate action
upon the aprortionmeni, so soon as Congress
shall meet, and notwithstanding it may as
il has heretofore been proved to be a bone
Of contention, we may reasonably hope TO
see it disposed Of among the first business Of
the Session. II this should be the case, the
plan recommended by the meeting at this
place, is to empower the Young mems cen
trail committee to call the members of the
Convention together, so soon as the appor-
tinnment shall be made. The Delegates
should he ready from all the Counties to re-
pair at the time, and 10 The place designated
by this Committee.
We see manS difficulties that might arise
by selecting candidates to run on the condi-
ton, that we should be entitled to so ma
ny members. And we can find but one to
the plan we have proposed-and that is the
bare possibility, that Congressmay delay final
action upon the apportionment, until July
or August next.
We unite with the Argus, in the hope "that
"the people of each County will express
"their opinions freely as to the Candidates
"to be selected, and not leave the matter to
abe discussed at the Convention" We are
no friends to conventions. We accept them
only as a necessary evil. If they are left
to politicians alone, and the people-the sov-
reigns Of the land, keep aloof from them,
they are as often productive Of mischief and
evil as Of good. The people must take the
matter in their own hands, and not leave
it to a few log-rolling- bargaining,
intriguing politicians. They must speak to
their delegates throughout the press in pub.
lie meetings-and in personal interviews, as
to whom they desire to represent them, and
the delegate must know that he goes into
the Convention, as the Representative of the
wishes Of those that sent him, and not mere
ly to express his WI individual preference.
If this be done by the people and their
delegates the choice of the convention will
be choice Of the people, and all will be well.
