On tho ii 1 tli of July, tho Meenger contained nn article condemning tho action of wo quoto from tho two articles: THE TRAX50RrPT, Friday, Aiigii'.l !?, I80. M'cmbcr oTjDoiigrcss. On tho loth inst., tho Republicans of this Congressional District, meet in Convention, at Hydepark to tiomiiiato a enndidato for member of Congress, to bo supported at the ensuing elect ion. Wo need not assure tho readers of tho TiuNscniPT that this convention is one of great importance. The ac tion of tho last Congress conclusively proves that wo should havo legislators, who arc not inclined to bo extravagant with tho public monoy any moro than they aro with thoir own. Tho choice of such a man is demanded by tho rm plu of this District, and tho people ought to be willing to tako tho mattor out of the hands of "wire pullers," nnd politicians. A number of gentlemen havo been named for tho position, cither of whom would do credit to tho District; but, all thinga considered, we do not hesitato to express our decided preference for our townsman, tho Hon. llo'meo II. Hoyt. At this particular timo in our national history, great iinnncial .attainments, combined with fair legal abilities and good forensic powers, should bo the necessary qunli iications for n member of Congress. Judge lloyt possesses all these, in an eminent degree. Ho is emphatically "a people's man," and if honored with a nomination and election, would con sult tho wishes of the people, and not those of any clique, lie has boon Senator from Franklin County, County Commissioner, and County Judge, the duties of which offices ho discharged to the entiro satisfaction of his con stituents. A man of liboral education, a graduate of Middlcbury College, a thoroughgoing republican, and a gen tleman orintegrity and practical abili ty, we believe Ju'dgo Hoyt every way qualified for the office in question. Tho present inenmbont ought to ro tiro from tho iield. Ho has already hold the ofiico one term longor than common usago would give it to him. Notwithstanding this, Mr. Baxter's namo will bo presented to tho conven tion by those who have received fa vors from tho Union party through his influence, and have become recent ly disaffected becauso preferences havo sorting that tho July 2-l-Jiily 30.
