THE DISTRICT CONVENTION,

We take occasion to remind our read

this place OH thesl 9TH inst. We trust ev
cry true man in the County will give that

out to the convention.

the Hon. Portus Baxter, and we presume
with his appreciation. that he is to be a
candidate whether he receives the nomin-
alton or not His friends are making
great efforts in his behalf Large delega-
cations have already bespoken their quar-
tiers for the convention aud all available
transportation has been engaged 10 some
places to convey his (paid) friends here.
In shoot, bis friends are using every eff
fort to "pack" the Convention in his ia

ination be displaced Hon. Homer Z. Royce
who had held the place only four years.
Mr.. Royce's career in Congress had been
eminently satisfactory he had done his
duty in every respect, and had shown him
self to be much the ablest member of the
House from this State. ta
When Mr.. Baxter came up for the nom
ination it was only on the ground Of rota-
ton in Office that he and his frieads based
their claim. 1t was conceded that he was
not SO able man as Mr.. Royce. but il
was urged that he was entitled to his
term and ought to have it, At that time
Mr.. Baxter repeatedly and vehemently as
sured his friends that if he should be
permitted to hold the place four years, he
would take himself out of the way and
give place to some other man.
Had it been told the people of the dist
six years ago, that Mr.. Baxter would be
found to-day taking the course be now is
taking, they never would have elected him
at all.
Mr.. Royce took himself out Of the way
and Mr.. Baxter was nominated.
When at that Convention both Mr..
Royce and Mr.. Baxter were called out aud
addressed the Convention. there was not

GRAVE CHARGES We publish in an-

have long entertained the meanest con-
tempt for him. We know the man, and
know we'll that no honest man ever
received an office by his means. No won

from the pockets of those to whom he sold
the offices. A great blow was struck Tor

twice the term of Office that had been al
lowed to Mr. Royce there were not ten
men in that convention who would moi
have indignantly rebuked his presump-
ton.
Mr.. Baxtess career in Con gross has not
been such as to warrant any such claim.
Very grave charges are brought against
him, by men of high respectabDity VII are
perfectly responsible aud claim to know
whereof they affirm.
In relation to these we have only to say
at this time that Mr.. Baxter's course in
breaking his solemn promises and those
on which he got his nomination origi-
nally shows that he is wanting in integ-
rity and gives greater probability to char
ges against him in other respects. 4
We are of that old-fashionod class who
believe that mems promises are sacred,
and do not believe members of Congress
absolved from them more than other men.
We trust the Convention on the 10Th
will show Mr. Baxter that he will be held
to his word, even though he is disposed
violate it himself.
AS to who shall succeed him the feel
ing seems to be entirely unanimous
so far as the papers ale concerned in
favor of Judge Hoyt. Even the St. AL
bans Messenger, the only paper in the
District that supports Mr.. Baxter, is con-
strained to admit Judge Hoyts eminent
fitness er the place.
Only the Record which does all Bax
ter's dirty work, can be found to say
aught against him.
The suggestion of bis name seems to
meet with great favor in this county, par
ticularly in the western part, where he is
best known. Indeed it seems.to be true
of him that those who know him best es-
TEEN him most which we regard the best
thing that can be said of any man.

For the Newsdealer.

Mr. EprroR:-It appear from the news
papers and from what we learn from oth
er quarters, that the Hon. Portus Baxter
who has already had his this third elec-
ton to Congress, is now working the
wires for a a fourth ora
1t is not little surprising to those VINO
who are we'll informed as to members OF
Congress, and their comparative ability
and usefulness in that body. that Mr..
Baxter should make the least effort what
ever to obtain for himself another election.
He seems to possess more skill and talent
in getting elections, than for the
discharge Of those great and important
duties of the House, incumbent on all
it's members. What has he done in or
out of Congress that should entitle him
to rcappointment? Can any one
tell? ..,..
That he has been Kind to the soldiers
we admit, and give him thanks for 1T, but
we ask irf all sincerity does this qualify
him for the appointment, he is now un-
reasonably seeking, Yes, he aoas kind
to the poor soldiers, bah!k
We think if Mr.. Baxter cannot be per-
suaded to step back, and make room for
some other gentleman, the freemen Of the
Third District will let him see himself
defeated at the polls.
There are several gentlemen IN our dis
trict who would do themselves and. the
country honor in the councils of the ma
ton. As one of them we would name
the Hon John II. Woodward, "a mar Of
liberal education of lrasburgb.
He has shown himself trustworthy and
able in both branches of our State Legis-
lature, and now many of the people de-
sire to see him in Congress, He faith.

On one OCCASION he took an active part
at the risk of his lie, in saving an i'm.
portaut bridge the rebels were striving TO
destroy by fire.
At another time he was the means of
saving company of eighty men of his
regiment, who, but for his bravery and
skill would have been killed or taken
prisoners
He gave willingly his two sons to the
service of the Government. one of whom

ate of the Vermont University. fell q

battle, Gettysburg
We do not wish to 60 into lengthy de-
tails, as enough has already been publish
ed in the newspapers (truthfully) to show
Mr., Woodward worthy of our confidence
Should he become member of Congress
we may expect that he will do himself
and the district honor.
In word, he belongs to that class of
men who can be trusted at all times and
in all places, and we hope he may be Sc
lected as the nominee at our district con-
vention, to be holden at Hyde Park on
the 10Th inst.
