ing an address 10 the people OF the Uni eel States the
other memorial to Congress, to be prepared promote

voice.
Mr. Mercsn of New York, then offered resolution
requesting the General Committee, to have the memo
fa and address prepared aud to submit them the con-
sideraiion OF the Convention.
VI would, he believed, be conceded on all hands that
attendance IN tue convention was very announcement 10
many OF the members and productive OF great sacriti-
ces The sooner we can get through the business, the
more satisfactory 1t will be 10 all. Mr.. Nj. proposed
20 commit the duty VI preparing the memorial and tho
address to the General omnee because II was area-
ny appointed, because twas well qualified and he cause,
from the manner in which had been formed /, possess
cd the means OF ascersining the wishes of the
different states represented In tho conventions An adj
diiona reason was, that some interchange OF sentiment
on the subject OF the memorial and OF tho address, h,
he understood already taken place among the
OF the committee.
