Shall we have n Convention!
EDITOR OF THE " NEWS.

EDITOR OF THE NEWS"
The " Abingdon Virginiau" favors a
Convention d publishes a call for meet
ing to be held on Monday next, to appoint
delegates to Congressional Convention to be
held at Marion on the LIST of August next.
In your last issue you cay ga Convention
may be necessary" If Greeley AID Brown
are elected, it is very important the he ma
jority of the House of Representatives should
be Democrats and Liberal Republicans COM
bined. 1t is therefore important that this
District should be represented by one of our
best men. The mode of appointing dele
gates prescribed by our last State Conven-
ton is FAIR AND Just, and no aspirant for
Congressional honors should object to it. The
Township meetings are more apt TO select
men who will reflect the peoples will, than
the Court House meetings. There is no le-
Ultimate mode NOW but by Township meet
ings for the selection of delegates, and
Convention composed Of del gates chosen
in general meetings at the Court Houses,
could not legitimately make a nomination.
| would therefore suggest that no meetings
at the Court Houses should be held until nf-
ter the approaching State. convention shall
have met and adjourned. If that body shall
see fit TO change the NODE of appointing dele
gates, the July terms of the Courts will be
time enough-but if there is no change
made in the mode of selection by the June
State Convention. then let delegates be chosen
az prescribed by the State convention, and
NOT in an iilegitimate way of Court House
meetings. Many of the counties of the State
have choaen delegates to the Richmond con-
vention by Township meetings and if prac
ticable for that purpose the same mode is
practicable as to congressional conventions.
A convention composed of delegates chosen
by the Townships in all of the counties when
assembled at Marion, will so fully represent
the popular will as to deter any indepen-
dent candidate from running, and thu
unite the entire anti-Grant vote of the Dis
trict on the nominee as we'll as on the Gin
ciunati nominees.

rHR CRY HALL.


The 1eyee being built on the opposite side
of the river has been subjected to critical
inspection by Administrator Cockrem and
Surveyor Bell. They find it of most ex-
cellent description, and built in a manner
indicative Of durability and strength. But
about two miles is yet to be done.
Dizziness reigns supreme in the vicinity of
the City Hall, the administrators spending
most of their time in the Mayors parlor,
discussing the funding, school tax, and
other bills, which await signatures.
The paving of Bourbon street. from the
Opera House to Canal street, will be COM
pleted after the season is over.
Administrator Shaw signed certificates
for S74 laborers yesterday morning, at the
rate of twenty-three per minute. Fastest
time on record.
Work on the broken section of the Water
works will be commenced in about ten
days.
The election of recorders is still under
discussion, some of the Administrators
thinking it would be advisable to elect at
once, while others think it would be better
to defer action for the present.
