4 GOOD SUGGESTION.
Our delegates to Somerset are hereby in
structed to press upon the Convention the
propriety of giving NJ. J. Durham the
nomination for life, with full power to
name his SUCCESSORS until the Millennium
or longer, provided that event shall moi
do away with the necessity for the expen'
sive luxury of the American Congress
Should the Convention carry out this idea
there would result great saving of time
trouble and expense in the future.

have been visiting in Garrard for several

Cook are expected home from Cincinnati
