3d. He is opjioscd to the letter and
spirit of the resolutions adopted in the
Virginia Democratic Convention, iu
whose deliberations I took particul
interest. From the first moment 1 heard
of his nomination till the present time,—
and a further lapse of time will make it
stronger—I had always made it my duty
to scorn his name when it is mentioned.
