This body, which was composed of frotn eight
' ‘hundred to one thousand members, chiefly work-
ing men,stortly farmers and residents of a long
and respectable standing, was convened for the
,pnrpose of consulting upon measures which
‘would best avert the increasing disasters of the
times, and to tioininatc a candidate for the Presi-
den_cy. A resolution was pzis-sed expressing the
preference of the Convention for Gen\. Harrison
as a candidate, but deferring the ultimate decis-
ion of the question to the voice of the people, as
«uttered by their representatives in a National
¢(~3onvcntion. This is as it should he. And we
_.trust that every \Vliig throughout the country,
will cordially respond to the sentiments of this
.patriotic~ body. who have thus determined to
iforc-go all personal predilcctions and preferences,

This gentleman has come out in an address to
the Public, on the subject ‘of the D_anbui'y con-.
ttistcd election. There can no longer be any
doubt that all the cliargesin the Resolutions of
our Datibury friends are true, antl that he richly
deserves that the iriark of“ publiz. rcprobation,"
should be put upon him. He denies nothing
which was alleged against liiin——mucli of it he
admits, and winds off with a flourish thus :
" \Vliile1 live, my feeble efforts will be exerted
in warning the laboringfland producing classes
of community, against i-‘lie subtle depredations
of scheming aristocrats, and liaiilt marantlers.”
Tliis is not the first tinie Mr. Stevens lias ap:
pearcd in pri_i_it. Some thing was said a year or
two zigo, about a certain inaii who obtained a
COtlll'tlt:l forbui,ldi,ii_g a certain Slozzc Jail; those
who know hi_rn_ are of opinion that he gave the

tnonths ago, in the shape ofa letter about “Apple-

that a large mad dog, was killed a few days
since four miles north ofl3ridgeport,on the turn-
pike, near the house of \Valker \Vhceler. 1e
had been followed from Ncwtowti, and had tired
~ont. two stages of horses, had bitten several dogs
on the road, besides hogs. &c. Owing totlie ra-
pitlity of his travcliiig, the alarm could not be
given tintil the ting had passed, nor could his pur-
suers get a shot at him, as it required the best.
speed ofa horse to keep up with him. The dog
passed through Trumbull, Long Hill, at 10 o’-
clock; the alarm was given a lew minutes af-
terwards, anti by iminetliately starting fresh hor-
ses, lie was overtaken at the above irientioticd
place. argd shot through the heart by Robert '1‘.
