THE NEXT NOMIS ATING CONNEN-
IIOS.

The propriety of holding one or two
State conventions has been pretty thor
oughly discussed throughout the State,
and so far rs we are able to learn the
weight of public opinion seems TO be in
favor of having but one convention. 1t
is true that there are some strong reasons
urged why our nominating convention
should not be held until after the nomi-
nations are male by the National Con-
vention, and the policy OF the Democra-
tic party clearly defined. But it is pretty
we'll understood now that there will be
no difficulties presented growing out
of the financial and other questions that
n few months ago threatened to be dis
turbing elements.
It is very important that we should
have fair ana full Convention, and if
two are held, one for the purpose OF Sc
Letting delegates to the National Conven-
tio4 and the other for the purpose of
nominating State ticket, the probsbili-
ty is that neither one woul1 be largely
attended. The canvass will not be very
long one. and we are inclined to think
that we will have nothing to lose by 3
canvass that is little protracted. Our
oninion is that the Executive Committee
should call the Convention for the pur
pose of selecting delegates to the Ma.
tional Convention. selecting Presidential
electors and nominating State ticket,
and then, after the Convention has assem-
bled, let it postpone the nominations, or
make them at that time, as Is deemed adj
visaDle.

THE APPOINTMENT OF TREAS

5EfA UkBk. ~R. 4f \
The$ Charleston, Courier has very
unkind cut at the recently appointed
Treasurer, as we'll as the press of this
city'for not entertaining the same opinion
of that gentleman that the Courier does.
1t says:
at is finely illustrative of the reform.
atory clamor in the Wheeling latitude
that not single newspaper published in
that city, has had the nerve to declare,
what they all know 10 be true. that the
Brady appointment was not tit to be
made" ..t
No one has ever doubted Mr.. BRADY's
qualifications, and while the unfortunate
winding up Of the Merchants Nationa!
Bank may have given some coloring for
the Co,J'iers remarks, yet the fact that the
President of that institution is one of his
bondsmen as Treasurer, is significant that
no crimlnality is believed to be attached
to his conduct in connection with that
bank. Asto the point that Mr.. BRADY
is an appointee of the Governor, we 90
not know that we are absolutely bound
to oppose everything that is done by the
Governor, simply Because he does it.
We are no partizan of Gov. JACOB; in
fact We have differed with him very
widely in many of the positions he has
seen proper to assume, and we have no
hesitation in criticizing his or any public
officer $. conduct, and ccnsure it if de-
serving censure. At the same time we
are willing to commend II good action
in any one. When Gov. JACOB saw
proper to step outside Of his personal
friends and in spirit of reconciliation
tender an appointment to a gentleman
who had always been regarded as a
straight Democrat we saw no occasion
for quarrel, but as good Democrats sub
ordinating everything else to the welfare
and harmony OF the party we were
willing to meet the advances in the same
conciliatory spirit that they were made.

| make no appeal, but if any wish to con-
tribute to the support of the women whose
house was burned, or assist the young
widow with her unborn child, 1 will receive
and deliver anything that may be forwarded
to me. l have questioned the blacks
closely to get the exact truth, and as l
want to be equally just, will state that 1
am told two of the large landowners (whose
names | would like to give) refused to
allow the companies of armed men to ride
through their plantations. One had his
dining-room full of the colored men on his
place, who ran there for safety.
Since writing my other letter I have
received so many letters from friends and
strangers, showing such great sympathy and
strong desire to know the exact truth that
my duties will scarcely allow time for
answering all. L appreciate and am thank
full for sympathy. L made these outrages
known for the sake of truth, and because
my highest education has been to do my
duty, leaving the result to God. During
my twelve years of teaching in this State |
have always advocated the right of man
to be Democrat, and that he should be

my whole heart hundreds of Northen
Domcrats would come South with the pur-

justice, and the honor of our nation demand
that the weak as we'll as the strong should
