That Convention.

As We predicted on yesterday, there are alread,
indications Of long and warm contest among the
DEMOCRATIC presses Of the State in regard to the place
Tor holding their Gubernatorial Convention. We
were certain that the antiLetcher mon would never
consent to the Richmond Souths suggestion a. to
Staunton The fact Of its being situated in Letchers
district within twelve miles Of Lechers domicil and
TILED with active wire workers in Letchers behalf
was quite enough to make 1t exceedingly objectiona-
BILE to those opposed to Letchers nomination. Ac.
cordnsly, We lind in the Enquirer Of yesterday q
Hat protest against Staunton. That paper suggests
Richmond or Alexandria As the most convenient and
suitable place. 1t does not think Staunton "safe
place Many delegates" il says. remember tn.
great r1sk Of life and limb attending tAe giving
edy Of the Hal floor in 1855, and persons will
not risk THEN lives by going to Staunton"
We remember, too, the circumstance alluded 10
and We remember, Also what cheering visions Of vic.
tory solaced us At the moment in contemplating the
imminent probability Of so large . number OF Demo
cratic voters being sent to their final accounti
We could think the same thing would happen again,
We should 60 for Staunton with perfect enthusiasm
But VIC are obliged to go for Richmond for the reas.
ons We assigned Yesterday; and for the additional
reason that the African Church is three or four times
larger than any building in Staunton, and, in the
event Of the roof and galleries giving way,
would necessarily demosh greater number OF Lo.
oofoco patriots! Richmond is undoubtedly the place
We hope our Democratic contemporaries in the ru.
raj districts will speak out forthwith, and announce
their preferences as to the place for holding the Con-
vention. There is no difference Of opinion as to the
time. The Enquirer accepts the suggestion Of the
Soath and designates the LIST day Of December il
is time, too, for beginning the appointment Of dele
gates duty that is surprisingly important as the
fate OF many aspirants depends upon the compost
ton Of the Convention Let them the friends of all
the candidates for the nomination bestr themselv,
right away, call county meetings, and select dele
gates. We tell you-everything depends upon tai
ent in this contest.
