The Republican Convention which assem-

OF the largest and most enthusiastic which
ever met in this district, and gave good earn
est of popular feeling, and Of the result Of
the canvass. Col. Shsllady Of Jasper coun.
typresided, and cordial feeling, willing
ness to do the best thing that the circum-
Stances seemed to require, pervaded the en-
tire body. Men had their preferences, but all
felt more interest in the success Of the cause
than in the elevation Of any individual. The
character of Col. Gears, personal and polit-
ical, was we'll appreciated BY the Conyen-
ton, and satisfactory to it, and under the
impression that it was both safe and polite
to present his name before tn, people as a
candidate for their suffragcs,-that, on the
whole, his was the best nomination that had
been suggested the request of his friends
was acceded to with hearty satisfaction.
Among the other candidates, was r. l.. b.
Clarke, Of Mt. Pleasant, who was earnestly
supported by many friends. As an indica-
ton Of the cordial acquiescence Of the dele
gates in the nomination which was made, anc
~ credit to the honor and high mindednes.
Of Mr.. Clarke, we IRE pleased to say tina
when the nomination was announced, Mr.
Clarke arose and expressed his entire assent
and pledged his most earnest efforts to assur,
the success Of Col. Curtis and the whole OF
the Republican ticket. In similar spirit
the Convention separated, feeling that with
proper effort their candidate might he elected
and determined that he shall be.
Wepresume Col. Curt, will give his best
sxertions to the canvass, and we can have
but little doubt 81 the result.

port we presume was authentic,-that Buch-
anan had been nominated. He was, perhaps,

sldering that he was stronger before the NOM

has, during his retiracy from active political
life, been partially forgotten. 1t will be
speedily resuscitated and brought back to
