CONVENTION INSTEAD or PRIMARY.

Our city Democratic committee have de-
cided on a convention instead of a pri-
mary for the nomination Of members
Of the Legislature from this city. This
was a most remarkable decision. For a
number OF years past-so many indeed
that custom has caused II TO be looked
upon as law-our representatives, in the
General Assembly Of Virginia have been
elected at primaries. and it is very
strange that this year that mode Of
choosing them should be changed.
Conventions are always more or less,
unfair TO the voters. Delegates to them
are elected by precinct meetings Of two
or three hours. held at night, and we
have had experience enough with that
sort OF thing to be very suspicious Of IT,
Always a great many voters Of the va
rious precincts stay away, and nearly
always delegates are chosen who do not
represent the will Of the majority. II
may be said that this is the fault Of
those who do not take the trouble to be
present, but that is not exactly the truth.
1t is inconvenent for a large proportion
Of the voting population of any ward
to attend precinct meetings at night,
and all such are disfranchised at those
meetings.
Then again. conventions Of this charac-
ter are highly Objectionable. In nine cases
out Of ten they are taken possession Of
by clackers and heelers OF a certain
slate. and cut and dried programme is
carried out. 1t is one Of the rarest occa-
sions in the world when small city polit-
zeal conventions do not create dissatis-
faction. and give rise TO charges Of fraud
and unfairness IN favor Of certain candi-
dates, and there are no more fruitful
sources OF heart burnings and schism.
All these evils are avoided by prima-
ries With them. with anything like
proper care, unfairness is impossible.

RICHMOND's INTEREST IN A PRI-
MARY.

We have made a point OF inquiring
around amongst citizens OF Richmond for
an expression Of opinion upon the action
Of the city committee in determining on
having a convention, and we can say that
it is almost unanimous, as far as persons
we have seen are concerned, in favor Of a
primary. Public opinion concerning the
matter runs, with singular unanimity, into
one channel. People say the next Leeis-
lature is to elect a new court Of appeals
which is the fountain of our laws. 1t is
Of pre-eminent Importance that this body
shall be composed Of the very best ma
terial in the State. Conventions for Sc
lecting candidates for the Legislature are
always packed in the interests Of am
bilious and not over scrupulous men. Such,
who want to be made members of the
court Of appeals, will pack the Richmond
ward meetings, which will in turn send
tooters for these men to the convention
which will then nominate for candidates
for the Legislature men pledged before
hand 10 vote in the Legislature for the
man who has arranged the wires, to be a
judge of the court of appeals. and thus,
instead of getting the best possible court
as We ought now easily TO secure, we shall
get the worst that can be selected. A
primary election sends 10 the Legislature
men who will really represent Richmond.
a convention viii send there the claquers
Of men who want to be senators and
Judges.

THE NEW YORK SUNS IDEA OF
GREATNESS.

GREATNESS.
An Englishman recently arrived in this
country wrote the New York Sun asking
It the names Of six or eight persons whom
the higher class Of Americans believe TO
be the thoughtfullest men Of the nine
teenth century, and the Sun answers.
Lincoln, Edison. Emerson, Napoleon,
Goethe. Bismarck, Arago, and Gladstone.
The Sun is generally level-headed about
matters Of this sort, but nothing could be
more preposterous than its answer as
above. Does the Sun really believe that
the higher class Of Americans think
Thomas j. Edison more thoughtful
man than Thomas jefferson, James Madi-
son. John Marshall, Daniel Webster. John
c. Calhoun or many others that could be
mentioned? Does the Sun believe that
these Americans rank Emerson with the
individuals named? Does 1t think that in
mental power they even rank Lincoln
with them, though they unquestionably
rate Mr.. Lincoln as a very great man?
His rating comes more however. from the
general equipoise Of his character and the
justice of his mind than from their esti-
mate of his pure mentality We confine
what we have to say TO Americans only.
But how some Of the Suns paragons
would shrivel up when brought into com
parison with all the characters Of the
world during the past ninety-three years.
What would Emerson look like If set in
the glare Of Thomas Carlyle's light?
