The County Convention. /\ run lur I lii* rciinHviiiDiing 01 iiiu n;miiiy democratic convention, which nominated our i County ticket in lS7b, appears in another Column of this paper. 'I'llo Convention having provided for its own continued existence, to meet emergencies audi as have now arisen, it seems that no other mode of presenting a notn- i iuce from the democratic party would he valid. ' Besides, it is manifestly impossible, within the time allowed, to re-asscmblc all (lie local clnbs in the couuty, and to put into complete opera- i lion the machinery necessary for the organization of a naw convention, embracing within its 1 membership all parts of our county. We are pleased to know that the people are entirely i willing to leave the matter to the.pld conven- ! tioii, I ho members of which were carefully s< J lecied at the full primary meeting held last , year. < - #v?
