which the Resolutions passed, scarcely thought it

ample to the country, by affording them promptly
this most loyal and unobjectionable opportunity for

thought it most proper to mention for the adoption, '

object of it. Ile could not feel himself on that oc-

A young man was charged with riding along Nvit,w.

a man with his hod full of mortar, going up War-
