Mr.. MIson: According 10 the invi-

have thought proper in this manner, to
make a call upon some individual TO de-
clare himself a candidate for the Conven-
ton. In casting my eyes over the
county Of Pike, I can suggest no one
who suits so well that honorable station
as DR.. J. II. HrcHEs, Of Calumet. he
unites within himself a high order o:
talents, with great personal popularity,
and a high neral ONE of feeling. Let
DR.. Hughes say through the medium OF
the press whether he is willing to make
the sacrifice for the good Of the county,
and he will be warmly supported by many
