object sought yet in consideration of appre.
tensions which exist outside that division
of the party may result in the loss TO the
democracy of the electoral vote of Virginia,

all p rsons shall be allowed to vote who pledge
themselves to vote for Hancock aud English.
The reply will be submitted TO tho couserva.
