County Convention.

As will be seen. we have hoistod to our
msst hsad the ticket placed in nOmiua-
tion by the Do nocr .tic County Convention
which assembled in this place on Tuesday last ,
and we do ia the hope that it will meet the

success of the democratic cause, have endea :
sored 20 form ticket upon which the whole

Of the democracy would have preferred other

placed in nomination is well qualified 10 dis
charge the duties of the Office for which he
has been seiected, and as none of them be

arged by members of the democrats party for
not supporting them.
