STATE CONVENTION OF COUN-
TRY PUDLHSKsER3.
CIRCLEvIILE. Dec 6. lSt

GIRCiEVILLE, Dec, o, 1868.
DEAR SIR:-We propose to our brethren
Of the Weekly Press Of Ohio, that they
hold a Convention, at Columbus, on the
First Wednesday ~ January, 1865, to de-
liberste on their business interests, and to
adopt a uniform Scale of Prices for subscrip-
tion and advertising. Much good can be
accomplished by the interview.
All who consent to attend the Convention
viii please indicate it, in their respective
journals, and sedd marked copy of their
papers to the CGcieUiue Cai0A, with the un-
derstanding that We publish Call for 3
Convention, embracing their signatures,
on or before the 25th day ofDecember, in
the Cincinnati, Columbus aud Cleveland
papers.
We assume this responsibility in consider
alton of the fact, that, with one or two e1-
ceptions, we are the oldest Editors and Pub
fishers in the State
We have never had an Editorial Conven-
ton, composed exclusively Of weekly pub
fishers, such as the one proposed As a
general rule, the city press is hostile to the
country press, and the result Was that for
mer Conventions, composed of both classes,
have been failures.
Whatever may be the result Of our delib-
erations, one thing is certain: we cannot
fail to have pleasant. social interview.
Therefore, resolve TO beapresent at the time
indicated.

The spirit of Democracy.

The late city election in Hartford, Con-
necticut, was carried by the Democracy, by
a majority OF l62. The total vote was 4, ,557.
1t was a square fight between the Democracy
and their opponents. The result occurring
since the Presidential election, shows how
much truth there is in the statement of the
Republican papers that the Democratic par
ty is dead. Gin. Eaq.

displayed in the message. For instance, the
remark that the national debt is substantial

With it patriotism is not the love Of country,

It is eti11 in doubt whether Prince Maxi
mil1ian Is fully determined TO ascend the
throne which Napoleon has prepared for him.
Willie there ntt positive assertions that he Is
about 10 sail from Europe for that purpose,
and is apw making his farewell visit to vari.
ons courts, It Is also as positively stated that
the conditions which he prescribed as prellm-
ina1y to his acceptance have not ret been
complied with to his satisfaction. It is con-
tended that certain guarantees for the stakll-
ity Of his new power hare not yet been given;
1hat also there remains still some doubt as to
the expression Of the Mexican people In his
favor being sufficiently attested; and further,
there arc difficulties and delays In negotiating
or guaranteeing the new loan which is an In
dislrnsible paH OF the arrangement.
So tar as Mexico herself is concerned, 1t

may haze been the struggle Of her people
