THIRD DAY.
On Saturday, great rensation was created by
the appearance in the tribune Of the Ojibbeway
chief, whose GRAFTON has, from the first opening Of
the congress, been anticipated as extraordinary
mcreeau. He was dressed in dark blue frock,
with scarf across his shoulder, after the old
French republican fashion. and the metallic plates
round bis arm gave peculiar character to his cos
tune. His Grafton was delivered in grandoquent
style, but its effect was rather upon the eye than
the eur, the great point being the unwrappng of a
mysterious implement which he had carried about
him, and which in the eyes of the peacemakers
looked marvellously like sword. When he de-
heerateiy took OIL the linen wrapper, and discover
nine-tails, and which he declared to be an Indian
banner OF peace, the acclamstions were trsmen-
dous. This was his grand scenic effect He should
have stopped here, but he did not, and produced an

future speech to quarter of an hour.
Two Germans, DIR. Bodensee and DIR. We'll,
spoke, one in French, the other in English, in
Frankfort.
This is Striking fact which needs no comment.
Dr. Bodensee held in his hand a commission
signed oy several persons, including DIR. Grimm
and The ministers of Scheswig- Holstein, which
threatened TO hurry the convention into an incon-
venleAtly rapid application of its principles. The
doctor confessed he was not an ambassador, but
still he seemed TO hold come diplomatic office,
which qualified him to refer to the Congress the
whole settlement of the Scheswig- Holstein Ques-
ton. The Congress shrank from the practical dis
play OF its powers OF amicable arrangement. DIR.
hbited political allusion; and Mr.. Golden, though
he had no doubt whatever that the question at
issue between Denmark and the Duches might be
very clevery settled by those present, suggested
that action would be premature unless both parties
were adequately represented. The Commission"
which would al once have made the Congress
equal to great destiny, was therefore "burked,"

with America, but was borrowed from France and

Some of the orations went of DULY enough, but
the audience was actually astonished into applause
by the speech OF MIR. ChIpple, Of New York, who, |
with his strong American wang, began IN a most |
unpromsing manner, but made one Of the smartcst |
displays yet heard. The steam engine he called |

When the resolutions on the list had been car

on which Nj. Cormenn and NJ. GIrardin both
spoke, the latter being received on this occasion
with marked applause. Then came vote OF
