Levi Bishop, chairman OF the Democratic
State central committee of Michigan, writes
from Detroit to the editor Of the Nsw York
H0Ti2, as follows
Ia view of tbs fesriul disasiers which have
followed oar armies in the feldi Of the sys-
tematic attacks Of the national Administration
upon the constitutional freedom Of the eountryi
OF the vast system of corruption which has been
inaugurated and eontinne1 by thai Administra-
tiou; Of the apparently universal prostration OF
even the sezblsncs Of public virtue in all the
deuarfmsnts ct public Office; and, finally. in
view of the terrible gloom that hangs over the
county, and settles down on the pablio mind
the following questions have been asked with
earnest solicilnde; What can be done TO save
the county 2 Can the Democratic party do
anvlhing 70 save i'll And if so, WHAT
Opinions have, to some extent, been collected

carefully on the whole subject, IL has been
thought best to suggest, and take the Necessary
steps to call a Dem0eratie national convention,
as The best medium through which such an.
81 ers cas- be sbtained.
IL oider to prevent misrepresentation in ad-
vance, We take the liberty TO intimate that while
he proposed convention would transact such
business as might come before it, yet its more
particular OH cts would be to consult generally
os the state If the countryi 30 compare opin-
ions, and if possible, TO hErmonize them and
the Democratic and conservative press 10
anunciale principles and a policy in accordance
with he Constitution and laws for the future
guidance Of our e~itizsRs; and, finally, 70 adopt
such MEASURES as the wisdom and patriotism Of
the convention might deem proper 10 rescue the
nation from the fearful condition into which we
are already plunged. ard from the more terrible
INTO uhrb we are rapidly Fastening.
Generally, rational conventions are neees-
sary oAly for the nomination Of candidates for
nalonki Offices, aud to continue and Psrfeet
natiolal organizations but We are now in &
