for reelection If So he is undoubtedly the man,
The object of Convention is to gree, to unite, to
organize, to concentrate. Do we disagree are we
not united? are we disorganized are we divided If
so, let us have Convention Let US meet in COM

people will delight to honor" But sir, hazard no.
thing in expressing the opinion that there has never
been time in the political history of this District,
when own party was more firmly united, than
the present.
No man has ever more eeetualy succeeded in gain

We regret this for several reasons. The CHEAP
postage bill, and all the general appropriation bills
