Glasgow weekly times. (Glasgow, Mo.) 1848-1861, 1856-05-01

P. M. At the hour both bodies again as
sembled and passed the hours till II o'clock
in hearing speeches. In the Anti wing of
the Capitol, President Pierce was endorsed
and other leading National Democrats" as
the speakers called them. But 10, when
Gov. Prices administration came up for en-
dorsement, delegate from st. Louis stuck
out his horns and the mover Of the resolu-
ton had to stake water" which he did in
double quick time. don't think the reso-
luton has been resurrected since.
Great anxiety was manifested as to what
the committee Of conference was doing, and
after being sent for several times they at last
appeared at II o'clock, and reported that
all hope was gone, and general " bust up"
was the finale TO the whole affair. No ba-
sis of union could be agreed upon-and
insult had only been the result of their la
bors. The hour was now midnight, but still
much time was consumed by both wings in
bravado as 10 what they would do with the
other in August. Gratz Brown said there
was spirit enough left in the Benton Democ-
racy to "put the steel between the ribs Of
the Antics" He was in for the fight
Gen. Price was extra valiant and indignant.
He was ready for the contest--would be in
the field till August, and if any man wanted
assistance to enable him to leave his employ
ment and take the field, come to him aid as
long as he had a dollar left he should have
it. Others were equally generous and brave.
Like assurances were given in the other
hall, and between II and o'clock both
conventions adjourned 10 meet Wednesday
morning at 8 o'clock.
WEDNESDAY, MoRNING.
At the appointed hour beth conventions
assembled in their respective halls.
The Antics delayed action, hoping, from
q little anxiety shown by King and Price for
union, that when the crisis came they Hould
bolt and join them, but in this they were
doomed to disappointment.
The hour for nominating came, and upon
some small pretext, GoOdet Of Johnson
county, and two of his colleagues left the
Benton wing and walked, into the iolce,
house. Their arrival was greeted with shouts
showing tha, small tarors" were "thank.
