rosxt Kind nf a nrccedcnt and we hope tho

worst kind Of a precedent, and we hope tn"
marty will take heed in the premises, and go to
the Convention prepared to give us a man who
is a Democrat out and out; who has a clean re-
cord on the question of slavery, and has ways
been true To institutions of the State and the
South. and who. If made Governor. will not
fail to see that that interest is well guarded and
protected. And the party might just as well re-
pudiate tl,e idea at once Of nominating
any such man as John Letchcr. for nc
has not proven himself to be sound on the ques-
ton of>layery; and his recent equivocatlon, that
he did not say slavery was a social and politi-
cal evil, is of itself sufficient to deter the party
from supporting him; and if they be true to
themselves they will not do it. Therefore, don't
fail to give us a man with a clean record; for |
have a most horrid idea of supporting a Demo
c.at who stands upon the same platform with
Summers, whom the party strongly opposed
and fought against to the bitter end. And II
the Democratic party should take up Letchcr'
they will be placed in the identical position the
Whigs occupied in 1851. My word for 1t, they
will; and pray what redress will youthen have:
Clear the ring, therefore, | pray you, that We
NAV have Il fair field and an open fight. DotihS.
and Democratic principles will triumph. and
the people he justified and defended.

1t is true, that a nomination is virtually al
