G% 1t is very evident from present de-
velopments, that the national: Democratic
party will be opposed by Northern Sec
tional party IN 1856. 1t is the duty then
of men Of all parties. y no love the union,
and who desire to MAINTAIN the Rights VI
the States, to rally to the standard Of De-
mocracy, and secure great triumph IN
1856. We know that Southern men oil
all parties. are true to the interests Of the
country, and as the Democratic pary isthe
only national party. they should come to
it, and assist in breaking down the enc
mics Of the Constitution. and the country.

Editorial Convention

The Lynchburg Republican suggests,
thata Convention Of the editors OF Vir-
einia be held for the purpose Of consult
ing upon the best reforms for the abuses in
newspaper publishing and adopting some
feasible plan to secure united action from
the fraternity We are decidedly in. favor.of
such Conventions; if ouly for the single pu:-
pose Of revising the credit system now SO
much abused by the patrons of newspapers.
We are of the opinion that the cashssysiem
should be universally ad opted, and rigidlJ
adhered TO-. 1t would be much to the ad-
vantage both Of readers and publishers, il
cash payments were made invariably for
subscriptions, job work ane advertising
The patrons would feel no Inconvenience
from it, because any man can command a
few dollars. at almost any time /; while the
publisher would be greatly beneftted.-
He could meet all Of his engagements
without trouble, and have means lett to
take trip to the Springs, or seek recrea-
ton otherwise. as his inclination might
lead. II should Be borne III mind, that
publishers have TO pay cash for every ex-
pense connected with a printing establish
ment. Our paper is cash down, always.
So with type, or six months at 10 per cent
interest. We prefer TO pay cash in such
instances. So with journeynan hire. house
rent. aud every other item incident to
publishing paper. Then, il for no other
reason, we urge the holding Of an Edito.
rial State Convention, to reform the abuses
IN this one particular. There are other
and weigbty reasons why Convention
should be held, but this Of itself, we think,
is sufficient.
We hope, then, that the fraternity
throughout the State " iii at once take ac-
ton. We suggest tl,a, Wednesday the
18th Of August, be fixed upon as the time,
and either Charlottesville, Lynchburg,
StAunton, Lexington, Harrisonburg, the
Rockbridge Alum Springs, or some other
watering place. be chosen as the place.
We have no particula. choice as to place.
While we think Stanton the most central
and the most accessible location III the
State, yet we are willing to acqniesce in
any place. where the largest representa-
ton can be had. We want full represen-
lation and whenever that ian be secured.
we will advocate. We would rather meet
at some Of the Springs, were il not that
only meagre number Of our brethren oil
the press would be likely to attend. as the
idea Of going to the Springs would be too
big for them to swallow and their better
halves, and little responsibilities, might
get confuscated with the idea. that editors
were mole than common people What
say our brethren of the press? Shall we,
or not, have Convention on the 18th Of
August. Ifso, which of the above places
shall be chosen, Speak out, AID let US
have some pointed action.
