STATE TREASURER.

We have frequently heard the name Of
Col. THOMAS J. Humphreys, of this coun-
ty. mentioned in connection with the nomi.
netion Of the State Convention for Treasu.
rer. We do not wish 10 detract from the
merits Of others when we say that there is
no man of our party who has been spoken
Of az a candidate for that office, that would
be more acceptable to the people of Madi-
son, if we may not say, TO the people of the
State, than Col. H. We regard him as
being "honest, (strictly SOL capable and
faithful to the Constitution coming
fully up to the Jeffersonian standard of me-
rit for office. We sincerely hope that the
State Convention may nominate him for the

AN appeal to the Democratic party OF
the principles Of a National Coarention,
&c.
The above is the title Of an anonymous
address which was found on the tables o.
the members Of Congress. 1t was doubt
less written under the supervision Of Mr.
Calhoun's friends at Washington, and is
supposed 10 have been pennel by Mr..
Rhett of South Carolina.
The address urges the propriety of hold
ing National Convention, and inculcates
submission to its decision; but as 10 the
time of holding the Convention, and the
method which should he used in getting
itup, it argues a, length and ably. As tc
tho time it is argued that the latest and
mdturest Judgment Of the people should Be
had; if the people have already made up
their minds then is there no necessity for
Convention; nor any improperly in de.
lay, for what harm would waiting dol IT,
on the contrary the people have not made
up their minds, the Convention ought NJ,
TO be assembled, for il is not called to choose
for the people, but 10 give forth their choice.
1t will not do to say that a Convention
should assemble to elise differences
amongst ourselves; Tor what are those diff.
ferences, but the development of the pop.
ular will. The la'est period should be a
dopted.
As to the mrtaOd Of appointing delegates
the address argues that it should be by
sending them "immediateIy from the people
in town, county or district assemblies -
This, il is commended, is in analogy 10 The
popular form Of elec,ing the president, and
will secure the rule of the greatest number
OF the people. The object of this new
mode recommended by the address is,
doubtless, TO prevent such an organization
AS will secure to certain candidates the in,
dividual votes of several large States re
gardless OF the will OF the minority Of
their political brethren in those States.

the rights and powers Of the several States.
In thus attempting to make our General
Government strong, we make it weak
Its true strength consists in leaving indi-
viduals and States, as much as possible, to
themselves in making itself felt, not in
its power, but in lis benificence, not in its
control, but in its protection, not in bind
ing the States more closely to the centre,
but leaving each to move unrestricted in
Is proper orbit. "-Jacks0n.
