| Since the publication Of my last number, the
Banner of the End inst, containing editorial
notice of my second number has come TO hand.
The editor, states that $50 far he has the means
Of forming an opinion, he believes the nomina-
tons which the Convention may have made, are
as acceptable to tho whole party, as any that could
have been made.' l again repeat that Conway
is not the choice Of the Democratic party. In this
part Of the State there is unanimous, fixed and
determined sentiment against him. Shall give
additional reasons to those already published why
its so; shall point to the offices which he and
his relatives have held, their ambitious and insa.
tiate grasping for others shall point to the thou
sands of dollars which have been measured out

cial emoluments! Shall | state the fact known
to every body, that we have but single officer for
the State at large, from this region and even tina,
must be surrendered for the qualification of our
young unambi'lous uditor! Shall further state
the fuct, that here in the whole North we
have never had but three federal officers for the
State at large-and mono but Conways relatives
could be found com petent and worthy TO fill them!
Yea even the Convention, could find no man in
this part of the State competent and faithful pos
scssing the requisite talents for forensic discus
sion, ample political information, and weight Of
character TO be put upon the electoral ticket but
the only relative which Conway now has here.
There is point at which forbearance ceases to be

covered with dismay, confusion and defeat. A
rout will ensue, disgraceful to us abroad, and
humiiatng TO our feelings at home. The Editor
hears but side of the case; the friends of the
nominees write to him, their opponents do not.
Throughout the whole Northwest there is but
one feeling in reference TO the Gubernatoria nom-
nees-a feeling Of deep, overwhelming dissa,is-
faction-a dissatisfaction so universal, that blu;
ono course will ailay it. If q Convention is held
land that one will be, is now placed beyond doubt,)
at which all may be represented, where the wishes
of all Will be regarded, whatever may DO the
result, no murmumngs will be heard, throughout
tho Northwest, confidence and harmony will per-
wade our ranks, from rank to rank the cheering
shouts will ring, and shoulder TO shoulder the
charge will be to battle and TO victory.
1t is true as said by the Banner that it cannot
be expected that Convention would give entire
satisfacton-but the only way in which dssatis.
faction will be merged in the desire for the good
of the party, is to ascertain the will Of the party
by consulting the whole party. Is il to be expec-
