and the same author proceed* to aay. that in ninny diseases
"substances srejcouveyed into the blood wliicb are incapa

“vital force," and get rid of these ••sahslauces.*' it is neces
sary to employ an agent which will act with directness ond
certainty upon the blood in the process of its manufacture,
preventing the introduction of non assimilating substances,
and thus cutting away, as it were, the very roots of the dis-
ease. That this preparation is such an agent, is abundant-| Hancock, mrs

purity, as when they were committed to oar keeping, bjr
nur venerable and departed shea ; and with a self-sacrifi
cing spirit for the public weal, and unanimity of seuliment,
we will have tbe happy consolation ot having dope our du
ly. of shedding an additional Instre upon our national fame,
and giving another brilliant proof of the rectitude of our
principles. We are not insensible of the weighty respon
sibilities. that real upon this Convention, but at the same
time, aucb is our settled confidence,in tbe devotion and in
tegrity of lbe Democratic party, that we arc elated with the
proudest assurance, that the most gratifying results will
cmiuate from tbe calm and deliberate judgment of this bo
dy. By an act of our State Legislature, the counties of
Bibb and Twiggs have been uoited,4lrming the 20th Sena
torial District, and as our alliance has been consummated
by law, let it he our pride and duty to consecrate and hal
low it, by the ties of mutual interest and fraternal feeling.
In ilia year J645. we congregated in a similar capacity aud
for a simiiar object, with which we have now assembled,
in the city of Macon, with a becoming and difiti'erested
magnaui nity.our political brethren of Twiggs gratuitously
ceded the right of selecting dm Senator from the conntv ot
Bibb, this being doue, like gallant spirits, every dissention
was hushed in iba enthusiasm of the contest, and we bore
alike tbe burthens and perils ol the struggle, and rejoiced
alike in iu triumphs, Under these considerations there is
a debt of gratitude, as well •• a moral and political obliga-
tioi, which it would be illiberal and unmanly to refuse, to
tender the selection of the Senatorial Candidate to tbe
county of Twiggs, and to give the nominee a zealous and
enthusiastic support, with tlie assurance, that the democra
cy of the respective counties will nobly respond to the nom
ination. VVe are clearly of the opinion, tliat no factcao be
more orthodox and conclusive, than tbe necessity and jus
tice of alternating in tho selection of the Senatorial candi
date of the 20th District, and a different policy to this,
seems to us the very perfection of infatuation, and breeds
in its wake the seeds of defection, strife and discord. The
Elections before us, are pregnant with the most vital inte
rests of the State. A candidate for Given)or, and Mem
ber* for the Legislature will anon be before us. high and
delicate responiibtlity await those publio functionaries.
State House officer* are to be chosen . judicial officers and
a Senator to the Congress of tho United States are to be
elected, which of iuelf makes a fervent and thrilling ap-
,eal to every Democrat to buckle oo bis armor for the con-
lict, and if there be private wrongs and sectional prejudi
ce* unrevenged, we invake our political friend* to get them
around the attar of patriotism, and there at iU consecrated
ihnne, to make one common immolation, to unite in one
universal nutbem of peace, and swell the mulental song of
a redeemed and united Democracy. - .-
Be it therefore Resolved. That we recognize the priori
pie of alternation, in the selection of a Senatorial Candidate
for the 20ib Diatrict,composed of tbe counties of Bibb and
T Revived. That aa the last Senatorial Candidate was
chosen from the county of Bibb, that the county of Twiggs
is entitled to tbe successor.
A Resolved, That we will tive an earnest and cordial sup-
port to the nominee of this Convention, and through our
selves as delegates of tbe respective counties, recommend
aud claim tho same of the District we represent.
After the reading and adoption of the above preambl
and resolutions, it was moved to proceed to tne election for
a Senator to rep -esent this District. No name being pre
sented to the Convention for whom to cast their votes, the
Delegates proceeded to balloting and on counting out the
ballotts.il appeared ibatWm. W-Wiggins received the
entire rote w the Convention, saving three votes, I tor Vy•
