Republicans should express this clear and de-

the convention will be largely attended, and ev-
Try part If the State will be fully represented.

adopts.

There i one ether matter which trust
viii be brought to the notice of the convention
AID acted upon, VIZ the manner of calling fu-
tuf- conventions. Some years since State
convention decided that future conventions
-h0uld be called as delegate conventions. The
st''e committee the next year, however, in ut
r-r contempt Of this action, called mass con-
veniio0, usua and since then oar state con-
vsHtions have teen called as mass conventions.
In this re pect Vermont is nearly alone among
all the states of the Union, and not to our own
advantage either. We hope this convention
will order that hereafter state conventions Of
the party shall be called as delegate conven-
tons, giving each locality its due weight in the
body when it assemblies and securing, as it will
secure, more general representation from ev-
cry town in the state.

POsr OFFICE rRoUBLEs.-On account of
difficulty with the Post Office Department
the Concord Railroad refuses to carry the
mails any longer under the present arrange
ment, and mail teams with feet horses, will
Immediately commence running between Con-
cord Manchester, Nashua and Port mouth
The same difficulty is spreading all over New
England. All the Northern, New Eugla ID
Railroads are either refusing to carry the
mails now, or else have notified the Govern
ment that they will only carry them 80 days
longer. The difficulty is this: the contracts
for carrying the mails in New Eng land and
New York expired .June 80, 1865. having
been in force tour years. The companies all
made an advance in price, alleging that they
paid per cent. in the shape of taxes, of
this very money received for carrying the
mails, and that evesy article of railroad con-
sumption and labor cost more than in 1861,
Gov. Dennison refu sed to pay more, and the
roads have now been carrying for year at
old prices, but are now universally refusing
to continue.

The New Hampshire Legislature net last
week and was organized by the election OF
Hon. Daniel Barnard, OF Frank lin. as Preside Mt
of the Senate, and Hon. Austin F. Pike, of
Franklin, as Speaker OF the House. The in
auguration ceremonies attendant upon Gov.
Smyth's induction TO the gube ruatorial chair
we're brilliant and imposing. The military,
band, and as sociations turned out in large num-
bers, and tn Governor was escorted through
the street to the c.pitol in fine style. Gov.
Bullock of Mas sschusetts, Gov. Dillingham; OF
Vermont, and Gen Pitkin, OF this village we're
present and took part in these ceremonies.
The exciting question before the legislature is
the election Of U. S. Senator for six years,
Senator Clark's term expiring next March
The contest promises to be the sharpest one
which has occurred in that State for quarter
of century.

We would by DO means wish 10 undervaiue

although he has never bad any legislative ez-

We have never supposed him to be one OF the

less he would, from his course Of life, and from
his training at the bar and upon the bench. be

of all constitutional questions, and on questions

House and while we say this, we would by no
means give to the lawyers the exclusive repre-

should be m ade up of men taken from the oii-

been the case in our own Legislature, and in our
last State Senate but SIX members were returned
who had ever been lawyers. In the present
Senate of the United States, if We mistake not,
all are lawyers and Judges but slz. Two oil the

originally 40 editor of paper, and two origl-
nally mechanics. This fact is one among many.
we think, why Mr.. Morrill, should be returned
TO the Senate rather than Judge Poland. There
would be superabundsnce of law talent IN the
Senate, and some OF it of the ghest order, if
Judge Pc ard should not be returned; while

of the question and If he has done much
service and honor to the State, as the represen-

seem but meet and proper tha. the State should

IMMIGRANTS FROM MADEIRA.

The Department of State has received a
dispatch from the United States Consul at
Funchal, stating that large number of poor
but honest and Woodworking laborers of Ma
deira, who are skilled in the raising of cereals,
the vine, sugar cane, &C., and in gardening,
are DESTROYS Of going to the United States, but
have not the means Of accomplishing that OBJ
Ject. He expresses the belief, if but one-half
OF their passage money could be advanced to
them by parties in this country on contract
under the act to encourage immigration, to be
paid in labor, at least 10000 of them would
be prepared to leave Immediately.
These people from the land of the Grape
and the Fig, would possibly do better in our
Southern climate than any other laborers we
can ever possibly obtain.
Their knowledge of the cultivation of the
Grape could be most proftably availed of, in
some portions of the South; and we consider
the services Of these people so valuable we
suggest that action should be taken for their
removal by some Of the Southern States
