We have invited The correspondence
Ut prominent citizens Of the county
and hayo been favored with letters
from both side ui tho river, bat
none have yet given thcir nmc3 TO-
the public except Col. pickius. We
desire a free candid expression Of
public sentiment and have he'll at
all times that the location Of the
county site was question that be-
belonged to the people, and that
only by a vote could it he settled
permanently which all lovers Of the
true interest and general good
of the citizcus Of the county most
h%catily desire.
We hope to see a ticket put in
the field that we can at lcaSr say
that there Is some heaven in l., for
the citizens Of this county viii no:
put into Office by their voluntary
votes men who Lave no honesty or
responsibility. For even the pdrtI-
zan Horace Greedy admits that VIC
are cursed with a set oi carpct-bag-
gers and scalawagcrs who number
AMONG their list some of the most
miserable OF Gods creatures, and are
lit and meet associates of the con-
dcmned fclons OF apcnitcntimy,w while
there are some good men among the
number. We at least viii act with
no body ofsoitizens, be they either
from The North or the South side.
who put forth men unworthy OF
confidence and known as eorrup'
miserable outcasts.
xNo matter how much we nigh
desire a local measure yet we cannot

h. will not be followed, and the ont.
issue will be the location OF tho
county site, and Il local ticket Wi
be nominated from each side OF tn
river.
W. would therefore suggest tn
y. propricty OF the citizens OF Sard

e convention, inviting every one t
r participation to endorse and ratli.
ii tho action of the members OF Il
lc late Legislature in removing tn
. county site, and that the rclnovi
r. was suggested by the petition OF tt
's great mass of the people north ct Il
river, and that it was their move

) protected by the members, at the
G. suggestion. And we see no va
of reaching a contrary expression
y opinion south Of the river except
a similar convention.
al We are told that the petition SC.

< this is SOFT is time, right and prop
