We, therefore, iuvite short and spicy com Vninieations, and discussions of ques tions appertaining to Our profession.

Let us disseminate the seeds of mental uud moral culture among the youth'of our land, that our couii 'try may go on lo a gloribds future 'and .posterity deljght .toilless our name. <\Ve do not deeih it necessary to give the color of our politics. It 'makes no difference whether. Wo arc ?Radical, . ^Deurocrdl, "-Republican, Whig, Federal, or Greenback, just so we lp|l you the truth und stick lo it. 1 Wo expect to advocate the educa tion of the entire Democracy of the people ns the surest cure for our pres ent ills. We expect to speak our ?mind freely and fearlessly on all sub [jects that claim our attention, Mr. Croaker's opinion to the contrary, notwithstanding. Wo hopo to show that ignorance Is the prolific mother of crime and immorality, and that ?this country w?l totter and full when intellectual and moral education is denied this people.

An \uipression prevailed that the Convention was a sister of tho shcopl system-wan offspring of our Radical State government?so called For several years we found tioublc fn getting places. Four years since we out-lived these prejudices. The people now understand and appre ciate us. Seven communities in dif ferent sections of the couuty have asked for the next mcc'ing of our Convention." * 86,' it is hot our intention here "to strike. for higher wages."
