CONVE NTION.
A Couveiion for the nomination of a candid-
ate to represent. in Congress the 4th Congression-
al District oftliis state, is to be held at Brook-
field on the 2d of next month. The time is
gsufiiciently near at hand for the wliigs of the
district to be movinrr. The business of appoint-
ing delegates should be attended to immediate-
ly, and as a full convention is generally more
hearty and healthful in its influence than a lean
CONGRESSIONAL
one, it is important that no town should go un-
represented. A well attended and spirited cou-
vention will reflect an influence that will be fe-if
in every portion of the district, and give an im_
pules to this and our sister county that‘ will do
much in the work of preparation for the ap-
tlirough for luck of sufficient public spirit on the
part of our citizens,——what. can we (‘X])GCl.-—-
what shall we deserve, but that business shall
leave our vicinity for other, more convenient and I
safer localities, and that this combining with‘
other influences, now or soon to be in operation,
will, in ii few years, shut up our stores and leave
us but the suburb to some more enterprising:
and therefore more thriving village? Z. I

DEATH or DR. SIhf0NS.——Tl1e Hon. S. S?-
mon late member of Congress from this district,
died at Bridgeport, on VVednesday, at the age
of 55.
FROM MEXICO.
The last news from the seat of war does not
cofiiim the reports which have been bandied about
for the last Week. Santa Anna is still at San
Luis Potosi. It is true that information had
reached Monterey that Santa Aima was on
the move toward Saltillo, and Gen. Taylor coun-
termatched when on his road to Victoria, but
learning the real state of things from Col. May,
who was in the advance, he returned to Monte-
rey.
The rumor was occasioned by the sight of a
numerous foraging party. The forces at Saltil-
lo, as well as at Mouterey have been considera-
bly strengthened. Gen. Wool will join Gen.
\Vorth, who was at the last accounts within a
few miles of Saltillo.
Gen. Scott is on his way to Gen. Taylor’s
camp, which is to be established at Victoria.
The strength of the Mexican army is again
claimed to be greatly exaggerated. A writer: by
the last arrival puts the number at not over 10,-
000.
Gem Taylor. it is said, will leave the field on
the arrival of Gen. Scott. \Ve presume. if there
is any ground for this, his motive will be to rid
himself of all subjection to the caprice and folly.
of this dwarfish and narrow-minded Administra-
tion.
