DEMOCRATIC CONTEMPORARIES
DENT POLKlS VISIT.

Ii will be seen that the Democratic meeting IN
his city on Saturday night, expressed their pre-
ference for John S. Caskie, as The Congressional
candidate. II is proper, however, that we shouia
state that the mover OF the resolution and those
who sustained expressly disclaimed The idea that
The adoption Of The resolution was designed as IN
Struetio,.s 10 the delegates from Richmond in the
Convention. They were sill 10 be LETT tree and
unfelered, TO select and unite upon any candi-
dale whom they might find 10 be The strongest,
alter consultation with their brother delegates.
We are gratiied, farther, 10 slate that each and
every Speaker on Saturday night, avowed
himself ready TO sustain tie nominee Of SAID
Conrentton. Let the same spirit pervade Inc
Convention itself, and We cannot doub! snch a
result, and all will be well.
1t will be farther seen, that Committee was
appointed TO tender Inequalities TO President
Polk, on his passing through Richmond. Inc
committee yesterday addressed letter oil IN
yitation TO the President, which we trust ne
may accept-and spend at least one day in the
Metropolis OF Virginia. The City Council Of
Charleston have adopted resolution, rendering
TO this distinguished statesman and true friend oil
The South reception as "lhe guest OF the city,
R;cbmond. Toe. we trust, will do her duty
