IT Nine persofs, we perceive, assembled Mt
the City Hail. on Monday last, and commissioned
the editor Of the Democrat to go up to Waterford
and help make candidate for Congress. lle II
CO. and it don't matter what sort of an idol is set
up he II come back and command every person
in the name of democracy to fall down and wor-
ship it. We reckon they won't do it,
u The following account of Free Soil
meeting, we copy from a Democratic paper mp
north The editor supports Pierce and King,
but we think gives true indication Of the pop
ular sentiment among the farmers and working
men of the State. The loafers and oihcc-scek.
ers in our cities are pretty fair opponents of the
characters of those who 90 for hunkersn and
Pierce & King Democracy. But the people in
tho country, who toll honestly for honest bread,
are not found the advocates nor abettors for

country is free and will utter a voice that can.

The anmus which prevailed this meeting, is
characteristic of every meeting where the yeo.

The Free Soil Convention.
The Mass County Convention of the Free
Sellers of this County, was held at Omro on
Tuesday last, l.. NJ. Parsons, presided.
1t was numerously attended. We counted one
hundred and ten individuals in the meeting. This
number, coming together at this time, and under
the circumstances, shows the principle to be
deeply grounded with n large portion of the
people Of this county. The men convened there
were of the best minds of the country. We ven-
ture that it would be difficult to get the same mum.
Der Of as good minds together, by similar call
of either the Democratic or Wing parties proper
1t was enthusiastic and harmonious. Much ell
ergy, earnestness, and deep feeling for the cause
was manifested
William w. Wilcox, of Omro, was nominal
mated for assembly for the South District. Mr..
Wilcox is an able, good man, thorough Demo-
crat and ought to be, and we think will be elect.
ed. lie has been delegate to nearly every Dem.
ocratc County Convention held in the county for
two years past and as he has not been silent
member, he Is well known generally, and our
readers will respond to what we say of him.
We think it will be unwse for any portion Of the
Democrats to try to get up nomination against
him.
Delegates to the Waupun Convention were
chosen, and also an Executive Committee to call
County Convention.
Mr.. Warren Chase was there, and addressed
the Convention at length, and his remarks were
we'll received.
The Convention was living protest against
both the Baltimore Platforms, and shows that
the PEOPLE--out from the politcians-are OPP
posed to them. There were several men there
on foot from distance of six, eight, ten, fifteen,
and eighteen miles, who are hard aboring men,
who do not own travelling vehicles, and who
have no spare money to hire, who are the first
men of their several towns, have frequently oc-
cuped the highest political offices therein
They were there because they can no longer
support LIE, and would do violence to their
souls if they do not try TO organize for the
TRUTH. OF such material was the Convention
composed.
We counted thirteen, who were participants
in the Convention, who have within two years
past been delegates to Conventions of the Dem
ocratic Party in this county, who pointed to
the late position taken by leaders Of the Par
ty as reason why they could no longer be
with it.
