ERt1cn's Visit TO WrIga.s:o7yn.
The St. Clairsyiile papers thus notices
Mr., Hation's visit to WightstoIrn, a. the
TINE Of the Republican Convention in that
paee.
The Bslu5ont ChroaicLa the organ Of the
Aholi.ionists Of that county, says:
TIE CcNGuKssIoHAL CONVENTION
We take the following from an ariae in
last wccs's Cad.3 Eclnhly5An, on the Bel
nani County Convention, g.: which the ed!-
tor that paper was present:
twenty two delegates we're Appointed Ia
tho Congressional Convention, which meets
IN Cambridge an he 2G:h Of August They

ell, a-e in favor Of mr. Bingham's nomina-
ton. 4 u1jc.i:Y, however, will, no doubt
60 for the nomination oE Belmont county
nlan-three 1t least, OF whom are epoken OF
As candidates, viz. Hon. LaSc WelGh, Col.
poornan and CAPT. Dauicrd; and; 1t may be
that the names OF other gentlemen IN that
county will be presented az candidates. We
thiuk. however, thai, ii i becomes appar-
ent thai no Belmont cGun'y man can he
nominated, a large proportion OF the vote
Of the county viii he east for John a.
Bingham In any event Mr.. Bingham will
receive respectable vote lrom beimOnti
and, therefore, We regard his nomination by
the Cambridge Convention as beyond q
doU5.,". -.
We propose, at this time. 10 say brt .
few words on the euIiuct Of the Congress
sionai Convention and It's probable nominee,
and wonid prefer to tav nothing, II the
Ahnve uuco:1ectcd was not calculated 10 mis-
lead the people OF the district, As 70 the
true position and purpose of Belmont Co
l. is t.ue. the names of seyeral gentlemen
have been mentioned ac probable candidates
and each one has special friends among the
delegates, but We think We understand the
character OF those delegates well enough 10
70 know, that they will p esent tut singh
candidate 10 that Cunv ntion As on2 Of
the parties named We feel au.ho lied 10
speak; and fron personal knowledge Of
the views and feelings of the other parties,
We know that the candidates will insist up
on such course, aud there is No doubt bat
what every Belmont County delegate, aithO
uniustrueted. will he governed BY the action
, of the majority. MIR. Bingham nonlina-
| lion by ,hc District Convention may be .be-
yond doubt, and he may also be the best
experience Of two years ago, and a KNOW
edge of the present feeling Of the people
upon this subject, makes it very clear 70
those who best understand the CHARACTER OF
our people, that Mr.. Bingham will no,
! make the Most available candidate that co d
he selected by that Convention.
! The editor of the Chro3j:s think thas
Mr.. Bingham is not, At present, the most
available candidate f,r Congress Poorman,
its editor, is a candidate for that position
himself, That may account for the milk
in the coaca nut" But We think different
We believe 4uqj2r John A. Bingham to be
the most available Abolition candidate that
could be trotted ont in this District for this
reason: There are hundreds of Abolitionist:
within the, bounds OF these five counties that
honestly believe that Ny'or Bingham wa
the cause Of ,ihauguratiDg this war to ''abol-
| j sh slavery and the slave aristooracF," an1
that he has put down the rebellion, restored
the Union, and made Freenba3ks at par
with gold, or if he has not done SO, he 'o}j;
and that wiser or greater statesman than
itcior John A. Bingham has rot lived il
the nineteenth c2ntuy Thlt oa93 Of men
Arc the fountain anl the source Of the par.
that is in op2osition to the Democracy -
| They wi have 'N2jr Bingham nominate
for Congress, and they vii worl; uaeea:ing.
| ling and Gntiting,y for lis election. Fo
the above reason W. think no other Abol:.
t;oniots woull make as available candidate
as .Nlyot; John 4. B;nghem II the Abo
litonists Of this di3tri3t are wise and saga
ciou5, taol who is foolish enough TO doubt
that, - they. viii nominate Eajor John 4.
Bingham for Congress, "of which" in til
language of his spokesman, Richard Hat
ton, Esq,, editor of the Cadiz Republican.
there is no doubt" Poorman and all the
other one horse Abolition cenljlate9 fol
Congress IN the District had better "dl,
up.
The St. Ciairsr'I. Ga1etIe, the organ o
the Democracy Of that county, says:
rsarTh4 L litoc oG tn. Clliz R1ppj7ra
states that he was present at the County Re
publican meeting at Belmont and was happ,
TO Gud that Mr. Bingham will have a tai
support irom this c6un.y, notwithstanding:
there will ha several prominent candidate
f9r Congress f0n, here. Among the nun
-terit mentions Col. poorman aud Capt
i'DanEorl Judging FROM the action Of tn
County Convention, Who gave tho col
ehoulter 10 Lieut.. I, G. Harper, Capt. i
II. Williams Cant John $. Hamilton an
Lieut.. Chas. H. King, who were prcseptc
for nomination. We will wager BIG appl
that the above military gentlemen will IT
ceivc no attention, butan Abolitionist Of III
= deepest dye will be nominated for Congress
The old Liberty Guard understand their bu
ainess and glance at the delegates fgor
the different townships will satisfy any on
that John i. Bingham or any other Aboli
ZIONIST Of the Old school will receive a la
! vote from this county But it's their II
neral, and we have nothing to cay.
