For ihe Yorkvllle Enquirer. CONTENTION OR PRIMARY ELECTION. Mr. Editor:?I think it a good forecast of the interest to be manifested by our people in the coming political campaign, to see that there is already an expression and canvassing of sentiment in regard to the best manner in which that campaign is to be inaugurated, in the choice of our county standard bearers. This interest is not only well timed ; but, I may say, it is almost essential to the success of our party, in order that our differences in - - /? 1 .x! p opinion, as to tee manner or seiecuou 01 our nominees, may be settled and reconciled before the action commences in earnest. And it is with this feeling that I offer these suggestions to the consideration of a thoughtful public; ray only excuse for venturing to claim r a space in your paper, being the great importance of the subject. We must all agree in the outset, that both the Convention and the Primary systems have their imperfections ; for there are no means of * accurately weighing public opinion, and adjusting private differences ; and the only object that our consideration can achieve is, which has the greater :rnperfections ? And in order to arrive at any conclusion as to this point, there must be some standard by which they are to be judged, and that standard is, and can only be, the will of the body of our party, as shown by the will of the greater part of them. Now, I ask, which of these systems is the better adapted to eliciting the preference of the plurality of the members of the party ? I put the question in this form, in order to ^ give the advocates of the Convention system ground upon which to stand, for the purpose of comparison. For I could place myself upon the high and commanding position of the primitive principles of our Republic?the principles of tho Democratic party of that Republic?and demand, as: the prime essence of all political liberty, that every oue of that party should have the individual and inviola ble right of deciding for himself, and declaring for himself by ballot, what fellow-citizens shall be entitled to carry and represent his political individuality in their representative capacity. I would demand that the same rights that are guaranteed him, 8.8 a citizen, by the Constitution, be allowed bim by his party. Rut. T will confine mvself to the question > above suggested, and compare the two systems according to their merits. The only ground upon which the Convenv tion can be sustained on its merits, is that the will of the body of the people is reflected through their delegates. Here is where I join \ issue. The Convention is not an accurate re\ flection of the political seut.iment of the county ty. It is true, that the delegates to the Con\ vention are elected by the people; but are men \vithan ordinary amount of common sense? nfreo that have acted as members of conventiotas, or have seen their operation?to be madile believe, that even if a delegate knows the Sentiments of his constituents, he will cast his vote in accordance with their preference and not according to his own personal preferences; or, at least, be greatly influenced by them? Why.it is against human nature; and man, oven in the most conscientious exercise of his duties and powers, is unconsciously swayed by h\s prejudices. How much greater sway musLllrese'Vceiudices have, when a delegateTeels (as he generally does) that he has a right to assert his individuality in his vote. But I will not continue the comparison of the two systems on their merits, as I hardly think - that it will be seriously contended by any one ( that the Convention is not greatly inferior to < the Primary system in this respect. And yet this great piea in favor of the Primary should ^ prevail at all events, unless accompanied with manifest rian??er to the Dartv. This brings "" O" ~~ i V | me next to consider the relative expediency of the two systems. The objection adduced by the opponents of the Primary is, that it will cause dissatisfaction, and probably a rent in the party. This ohjection may be applied, with equal and per haps greater force, to the Convention. I think that by an empirical comparison, it will be found that the instances of injurious dissensions in either case are the rare exception ; and that in those exceptional instances, the balance of the account is in favor of the Primary elections. In fact, it will be found that the incentives to divisions and schisms lie more in the breasts of the people themselves, than in either of these systems, aud that unless they are bound together by the strong tie of union for the enjoyment of their political rights, for the security of their families and their prop erty, they can very easily find opportunity, under either system, to divide aud fall. But it is in accordance with reason to believe that candidates will be more strongly supported, if they are the choice of the plurality of the people, than they will be if forced upon the people by the votes of a few individuals constituting a convention. A nomination, by electiou, will add zest and animation to the political campaign ; for the voters will feel that they have men at the helm placed there by themselves; aud an enthusiasm will be aroused, such as could not be created by men who are perhaps unknown to . the majority of them. Finally, there is an advantage which cannot be accurately estimated, in every candidate submitting his claims and his qualifications to a criticising public ; for thereby and thereby alone, can that great vein of natural discriminating Dowers, pervading almost every community, assert itself, and the services of the most competent and most representative persons be secured. In offering this general outline of suggesf tions, I feel convinced that, I am but reflecting the sentiment of a large majority of our people, although in a very imperfect and abridged form. A Voter.

Every Physician has prescriptions, or combinations of Medicines, that have ueen successful in his hands, in the treatment and cure of diseases that occur in the sphere of his practice. These prescriptions acquire a local reputation in the cure of certain complaints, and in order that a greater number may receive the benefits of the Physician's experience and treatment than can be reached in his circumscribed practice, he consents that his prescriptions be put up by some competent and reliable firm or individual and offered to the public for the alleviation and cure of the diseases for which they are intended. In this way originate nine-tenths of all the Proprietary or Patent Medicines that are sold. They are not humbugs. They are, for the most part, the outgrowth of long years of experience and study of eminent physicians.
