the Union party held at Medgevlle. Georgia. resolu-
ton to send delegates the Democratic National Con-
veniion, after considerable discussion failed the final
vote, and in its place resolution adopted leaving
the whole matter open to further action After the ad-

luton TO send delegates to the Democratic National Con-
venton. upon the assumption that the proceedings OF
that body would take such shape as plainly to
