CONCLUDED TOMORROW
TEiSFX COUNEY-WHO SHALL BE
OUR DELEGATES


From the Columbia Herald, Oct. %.
The Legislature has now under consid-
Grafton d bill authorizing a convention of
the people, with indications that it will be
passed. The selection of men TO com
pose the convention should be done with
more wisdom than the selection of men
to fill the highest offices in the land. The
delegates to the Convention will be eX-
posed 10 two-fold danger, the two ex-
tremes of which moderation is the happy
medium. There is much to do, which
viii require considerable courage TO per
form, and there is point in the needed
iconOclasm, at which it will require the
highest wisdom and prudence to stop. In
the ordinary duty of making new laws
for State, it is not a serious matter if a
Legislature is composed of men of very
strong prejudices, as the succeeding body
can annul all perniciOus legislation; but
it is far different with the &C
lion of convention met TO frame
4 constitution for q State, which will
he likely to last for generations. 1t is
! highly essential, then, that the men whom
we shall send to this convention shall be
| prudent and Wise-men whose wisdom
/ will he stronger than their prejudices. In
| our county We have many such men, but
| none whom We conceive to be more alive
| with the spirit of the age in which we
live, and the demands of the OCCASION
than our fellow citizen, F. G. Dunning
| ton, Esq Possessed of an eminetly prac
| teal as well as Il cultivated mind, he car
tell accurately what are both the Interests
and opinions, of the people on all ques
tons, without allowing his own feelings
to color his decisions. We repeat, W.
have many men worthy to represent on
people in the convention, but our prefer
enccs are for Mr.. Huntington.
From the Columbia Herald, Nov. 8.
Ma. EDITOR: / cordially approve you

constitutional convention, F. c. Dunning

Mr.. EDITOR: Your suggestion of +. {
