State Convention.

The citizens of West Virginia who FAVOR
the repeal of all prOScriptive laws now III
force in this State and the enactment OF
such measures as will give the State charac-
ter abroad and harmony and prosperity nj
home, arr requested to meet in their respec-
tive counties or townships, ut ms early day
as may be practicable, and choose delegates
To Il State Convention to De held in the
town of Charleston, Kanawha county, on
wednesday. the Eighth day or june
1870, to nominate candidates for the otnccS
of Governor, Auditor, Treasurer, Secretary
of State, Attorney General and Judge OF the
Supreme Court of Appeals.
Each county or delegate district Will cast
ten votes in this Convention for every rep
rcSentativc in the House OF Delegates 10
which such county or district may he en-
titled.
The effect of our proscriptivc system In
driving large numbers of useful citizens
from West Virginia, and in preventing i'm
migration from other States, renders the
speedy abolition OF that system necessary
To the public good. This call is therefore
addressed TO all liberal-minded men, wheth-
or Democratic, Conservative or Republican,
who desire to promote the welfare Of the
state and vindicate the rights Of her citizens
by appropriate legislation.

Yours with respect,
STATE CONVENTION.

BY reference to another place It will
he seen that the Democratic State Tx
ecutive Committee have called a State
Convention on the Sth Of June, at
Charleston, the seat of government. In
onr opinion the Committee have acted
wisely in calling the Convention thus
early, as it will give ample time for
thorough organization and preparation
for a vigorous and systematic campaign.
The proclamation of the Committee Is
broad and liberal-inviting, as 1t does,
the alliance and cooperation OF all men,
of whatever party, who are In favor OF
liberal legislation, of giving to the dis
franchised white men of the State the
political privileges which are now ac-
corded to the negroes, and who are OPP
posed to the vindictive and partisan
spirit Of Prescription which has char
acterized the legislation and policy of
the Radical party, and which has so
materially retarded the prosperity and
growth of orr young State.
According to the basis of representa-
ton fixed by the Slate Executive Com
mittee, Berkeley county is entitled to
twenty delegates in the State Conven-
ton. In short time call will be is
sued bv the County Executive Commit
tee for a County Convention, the duties
of which will be the selection of proper
delegates to represent us in the State
Convention.

Democratic State Executive Committ

The State Convention OF the Demo
cratic and Conservative party has now
been called We had recently come to
the conclusion that the time named Is
too carly, but the State Executive Com
mittee, whom We suppose gave It Its
careful consideration, seems to have
thought differently and we acquesce in
It's decision. We cannot afford to have
Il quarrel among ourselves. We want
to beat the Radicals and restore orr
State TO the principles of republican
government, business prosperity and
low taxes, and We can never do it If we
indulge in private chickering's.
The hope of the country il in the
Democratic party. If the liberal Re
publicans-so called-arc sincere in
their professions, they will act with the
Conservatives. If they are not, the
sooner the country finds it ont the
better. 1t is ridiculous to ask the great
Democratic party with its glorious rec
ord, to become absorbed in the faction
of party that has neither name or a
principle of which few men are not
