0SE THAT Knows.
II our correspondent had made
Lis suggestions at the County Convcn'
ton held here few weeks ago. his
course would probably have been
adopted but cannot the Democrats Sc.
cure the same object by attending the
district meetings. District meetings
will be held IN each district on the
18th inst, and if the Democrats Of the
several districts will turn out on that
day anil express their preference for
The different candidates. it would effect
tho same result as what is known % a
primary election. Or if1as Democrats
assembled a. the district meetings are
not prepared to express GTrprelcreuco
for the various candiiatcG. let tho dis
ttict meetings appoin. oil the Demo.
Gratis in the district as delegates to the
County, Convention; and When they
assemble on. the, day Of tue Convention
let delegations from each district meet
