HI A BEAuTIFUL EXTRACT The following
paragraph is from the Wisconsin Farmer 81
Ito the majority Of men we are satisfied
that the soil is nothing but dirt; but to the
chemist who knows its origin, it's nature
and it's capabilities, it is a wonderful mix
ture Of those beautiful elements which in
their ever varying forms become the am
bent air, the liquid ocean, the blue violet,
the amaranth, the rosebud, the spear Of blue
grass and the ceder Of Lebanon; or again
the ruby lip, the lovelit eye the noble pal
plating heart, and yet more wonderful brain!
These are the jewels Of which the soil is
composed, and out Of which the husbandman
50 unheedingly strives to force the food hum
ger Graves. Henceforth, as he turns the
furrow of the field, let the sleep of his
thoughts be broken by the reflection, this
earth thus stirred up by my ploughshare,
is douptless composed in part Of the asAes Of
ancestral heroes whose mortal remains are
the plastic material out Of which we are
building the bodies Of men to-day

fen who will rule you as with rod of IRON
Fellow-citizens, am not insensibe to my
party obligations and usagcs Whenever
it is necessary to the success Of party, then
favor fairly organized Conventions. Does
such necessity now exist ? There IS no
Wing in the field and we have their univer
sal pledge that there will be none. If that
party had said nothing then we might be on
the alert, but their editors tell us publicly
and privately, there will be no opposition
in the feld-their leading men and their
honest masses, all, all tell US that we shall
have an open field and fair race. AS hon
orable men how could they interfere after
these pledges; and that they are honorable
who can doubt? Then there was no neces-
sity for a Convention, and there being no
necessity, the few ought not to have forced
one over the heads Of the majority: The
right Of voting the will Of a free people is
inestimable and ought never to be abridged
or trampled upon. When the new doctrine
is once established, that the action Of party
Conventions, in all cases whether necessary
or not, is binding upon the conscience Of
the voter, his liberty is gone and his power
is transferred into the hands of CA UCUlS-
Els and CONVENTIONS.
Fellow citizens, being opposed to all Con-
ventions when not necessary TO the success
of my party and preferring that my claims
shall be scrutinized and acted upon by the
Grand Convention Of the people at the polls
and feeling that Convention was forced
upon an. unwilling people, [ announce in
advance that my name should not 60 before
it. In this position | am supported and
backed by large majority of the glorious
Democracy Of Rockingham and Shenandoah
whose voices cannot be stifed and who will
record their determination on the 4th Thurs
day in May, in manner SO potent that it
will teach politicians, in future, to wait for
the PEOPLE to call conventions. Through
out the whole district, wherever | have been
find number Of gallant Democratic friends
who enlist under the Anti-Caucus banner
and will fight the battle to the end Then
Freemen Of the 9th Congressional District
Of Virginia, I appeal to you to aid me in
indicating yours, as well as my rights.
I shall at once enter the Canvass and
will be in the Southern part Of the District
for some weeks to come, and [ will take the
occasion afforded by public discussion to give
my views more at length. I will visit the
Northern section Of the District SO soon as
| complete my Canvass as above indicated.
In the mean time my Anti Caucus Demo
cratic friends may rest assured that their flag
shall not trail in the dust.

She's been with them so long;
