Under thia head the STArKsmAN of the 23t OF
November contained an editorial article, the
character and import Of which were grossly
misrepresented In the Crisis Of last week. We,
therefore, in justice to ourselves, reproduce 1t
THE morning, and psk for IL an attentive perusal.
Is is as follows:
Some Of our contemporaries are agitatlug the
subjec. Of the Rsxs Democratic State Conven,
sion, with reference to the time when It shall
be held.
The Ashland Union, Ohio Eagle, HillsbOro
Gasdts. and perhaps other journals, have ex.
pressed decided preference fer the 9th Of jan
uary, as the appropriate time--that being the
day on which for many years previous to 1851,
our Conventions assembled.
The Hillsboro Gasdis calls on the STATES
NAN (smong others) to give its opinion on the
subisc., that paper considering 1t Of the hist
importance TO hold our annual Conventions on
"ths glorious esh Of January-a day memorable
In history and dear to the heart Of every Amer
lean patriot"
We can say TO our contemporary, that We
have az much respect for the 9th Of January,
and the memory of she man whose deeds have
made It immortal, as any Individual living;
but We have not been able to see any thing
70 impress q, with the importance of return
Ing TO that day, as the day for our annual
State ssssmblsgs, for the purpose Of nomi-
mating our candidates, while we are fully Of
the opinion, that In the present condition Of
the country, the wonderful changes taking
place, the new and unexpected issues daily
arising, there Is a propriety In defering our
nominating Convention until the 4.h Of July
nexs, If fnot later.
While this. however, 10 our opinion, we
should not have veutured to give II, unless
called upon to do 90; and we have to remark,
that any day designated by the State Central
Committee, win be perfectly satisfactory to VI.
Is 10 for them to Judge, and with their action,
with Gil the facts before them, We ahall be
content.
The Arst change from the 9Th of January ss
our nominating day, was made BY the Democra-
cy Of this State In 1851, when our Convention
was held In the summer-early in August.
That year, on short canvass. we carried the
State BY some 2s.OO0 msiority. In 1852, we
held our Convention on the 9Th Of January, and
carried the State. The same was the case In
1883, with G like result. In 1854, the CoDven-
sion was held on the 9Th Of January, and NE
wsre very badly beaten that year.
In 1855 and 1855, our Conventions we're held
or the slh of January, and we were beaten both
years. irss.1s d, 5r
In 1867, we held our Convention IN August,
and came very near redeemipg the State
Since that time we have had but one Conven-
tion IA Jsnuary, ana that was in 1860; and we
we're beaten every time until the late election.
This year, we zasds our Stats nominations on
the Oh Of July. and carried them riumphsn,-
ly through. making the grandsst race, oil
things considered, that We have ever made.
Reasons, to rs numerous and conclusive, ex-
lat foF later day than January 9th; but, as We
have before said, any day designated by the
proper committee, will suit the SfATRsMAs,
