The New Hampshire House has put its foot
that the National Government shall not Gun
"dcrtake any new obligation, nor lend its credit
"for the furiherance of any scheme under the
"guise of internal Improvements that may be
for the advantage of any particular locality or
"corpOratOn." This sounds as II the honorable
members meant it.
. Both the Russians and Turks are disposed to
RELY largely on the printing-prcSs for "money"
IN carry on the war. The Turks can hardly
render their credit worse than it is, but the
Russians may find this one of the cOstlcSt ex-
Incidents they could adopt to meet their mill
tary expenses Should they continue TO food
the country with paper money they must eX-
meet 10 see the distrust manifested in Berlin
financial circles become general.
II was unfortunate for the MontenegriIs that
they did not act as far as possible on the de-
fensive until the Russians had entered Bull
oaria. The Turks would then have been un-
able to crush them by overpowering numbers,
and succeed almost in capturing their capital,
as they have done The withdrawal OF the
Ottoman forces to Bulg ria will now give the
hardy mouptainerrs a respite, but they will be
cyinnled for some time by the enormous losses
they suffered in the recent campaign.

Montgomery Co., Mar. &c, 1871 !
Mr.. Editor IL have read very carefully the
plan as proposed by the Hon. Wm. V. Bouic,
regarding the primary meetings, &c. Without
any disrepect to his Honor and believing that
the plan, as proposed in rule 3, &C., would
suit places where nominations and elections
were OF often occurance and less zeal mani
tested but here in old Montgomery, the
banner county Of our State, where the working
man devotes at least two DAYS a year to the
interest of his franchise, and where a nomi-
nation is equivalent to an election, this plan
is but II slight improvement to the old Re-
tiripg Committees, which were generally
packed or governed by rings and cliques, and
now repudiated by the people. The only inn
provement can see is chance The cry here
is no New Departure. Tho people generally
favor voting directly for the candidates or
aspirants. | should think enough chance
work has been experienced by TO Z, or the
Electoral Commission, TO satisfy us not only
IN this county, but the whole country Then
without leaving it to chance or retiring COM
mlttee, why not go a lit;le further with our
present plan and let us vote for full represeE-
taton OF our State and local government
without a cry being raised, as was done
two years since, Of 'you cannot help nomi-
nate more than one legislator &c" This
was injustice. Why can we not (the voters
in districts 4, 2, 3, a or s., have say who
should represent US in our State Legislature
1t d. A. and G. are men who would do credit
10 our county md all from Que district, and the
people deem them their choice as men suitable
and competent to represent them, why should
we not have the privilege Of voting TO nomi-
nate them without resort 10 chance or a
packed retiring committee2
Hoping that you will give this humble com
municatiop a place in the old SENTINEL on
the outpost of the Democratic camp as an
appeal Of justice,

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
County Conventions.


Mr. Editor THE subject OF recognizing the
manner of holding County Conventions by the
Democratic party is now being considered by
the people. To arrive at satisfactory result
it is important to have a distinct perception Of
what is 10 be accomplished.
10 my opinion all fair minded Democrats de-
sire that the method OF selecting candidates
should be fair, and free from political trickery
The Conventions ought 10 he composed
Of the hest men, selected so fairly that they
shall represent the public opinions and wishes
of the people, and not the wishes and plans Of
the ofice-seekers, or persons who DEERE to be
nominated for the Offices and when the con-
venlons meet they should be entirely free as
representative men, having the public interest
at heart, to sclec; the best men that be pre-
vailed upon to accept the nominations, and
should not be confined in their choice merely
to aspirans who come in person, or BY dele
cations to state their claims for the Offices.
! have drawn up plan which, in my opin-
ion, will secure the above object, and hope
you will publish it for public consideration.
