democrats, in Richmond, have advised
that in the selection OF mem
bsrs OF the coming constitutional
convention politics be eliminated, and
the questions Of competency and e.
ficiency alone be considered. Ofcourse,
every sensible man sees through the
object of this, and ridicules it. But y

that 10 the circular just issned by the
Chairman OF the republican committee
ofthe State, the following words appear;
$50 those districts 10 which our party
has candidate earnestly entreat you
to render your loyal support to elect
him." And all Intelligent end sincere
men agree with him. Ifs man be al re-
publican, let him be true one, and DO
ali be can to promote the success OF his
party. Of course, all true democrats
should do likewise. The democrat
who does not 90 with his party, stands
