C7tiOp:
Gentlemen,-In the selection of q candi-
date to ill the Office Of Attorney-Gcncral
there are two or three questions 10 be con-
sidercd
/. We must have a man of profound legal
learning-One who can successfully cope
with the important questions of law per
tanning to the Office. and with the ability
to meet the ablest legal minds ia TINS
country.
g We must have a man who from the
hustings or in debate can be an acknow-
ledeed champion and advocate of the cause
of Democracy in this crisis OF our party.
3. One who is well and fayorably known
throughout the limits of the state. We be-
lieve no one will measure up to these re-
Ouirenents better than the Hon. Joseph
Christian late Judge of the Court OF Ap-
peals of Virginia.
judge Christians ability as lawyer Is
beyond question. As pubic speaker be
is known and recognized as one OF the
most elOouent men of this State. who can
attract large crowds where he appears, and
who is capable OF meeting IN successful
debate the best men OF the Republican
party. and il is scarcely possible that any
man has more numerous personal ne
0uaintance, a larger number of friends. or
more universal popularity. This. with his
eminent fitness for the position, must
without doubt greatly strengthen our
ticket. DEMOCRATS.
