initely more for the maintenance of our prin.
cipes than for the success of men. The one
animating purpose of the convention seemed
to be, to make such a choice of delegates as
would best certify the entire devotion of the
Republicans Of the State to the cardinal
principles and measures of the National or
ganization, and render that testimony effective
in the highest possible degree. That this
purpose was accomplished we think no intel.
ligeut Vermonter will deny. SO Familiarity is
each gentleman Of the delegation known to
our readers, that We have no occasion to do
more than to point to the list, as we do with
pride.
