PROGRESS OF THE CAMPAIGN.

judging from the tOne of our West Wiz
GINA exchanges, the campaign'in favor of thu
Convention is progressing favorably in ain
quarters of the State. The tide of public
opinion is setting strongly in favor Of cOpsti-
tutiOnal reform, and the cause is gaining
friends every day. The Radicals despairing
of success in an open fight are busily engaged
in sending letters, circulars, aud secret emis--
saries to stir up "the faithful" to vote against
the Convention. Let Democrats be on their
guard and omit no proper effort to secure the
polling of a full vote. a
There is no timc for delay. Earnest and
active work must be done during the next few
days. Talk to your neigkbOrs who dOn't read
the newspapers and show them the necessity
of holding Constitutional Convention to lop
off every item of useless expense in the ad-
ministratiOu OF our State Government.

EaT There is large class of citizens in
this county who, under the anomalous aud in
famous government existing here since the
war, have never enjoyed the rights of frccmeu
nor possessed the franchises of citizens. What
ever be the action or insc:iou of others in
this canvass, let them, with one mind, resolve
that with the fFss exercise Of political rights
permitted them, they will record their solemn
and deliberate condemnation Of the governs
ment that has degraded them, and their SOL
emn aud deliberate determination to consisn
that government to the infamy whittier many
OF the enormities of the war have already pre-
ceded it, and whittier, it is to be hored,
many more will right speedily follow it.
