displayed q spirit which 10 q stain and dis
grace upon Orovile There is always more
or less allowance to be made for the extrav'
agancc of politicah excitement, but 1t GER
tainly is strange that msn-mcn who aspire
to stations of honor and profit. can so far
forget themselves--ther own dignity auh
standing, and self respect, and engage IN
such q scene as was enacted in OrovnIc on
Saturday night last. The person to whom
the Presentation was made, may have re-
mained in the Convention under the belief
that he was honestly dscharging his duty
to those who elected him. Others thought
differently, and acted differently, All may
hive Ueen actuated by honorable motives.
But the affair of Saturday night could only
have been cauceived by those whose natural
instincts outrage deccncy and disgrace hu-
manity. If We nave occurrences in our

name Of decency-in the nam2of humanity

the oratorical powers Of those who require
such source Of inspiration, or who could
so far forget the respect due to themselves
AS to present and respond upon the occasion
Their proceedings may stamp ridicule upon
the one intended, but if it stamp not the
ueructrators with indcllihlc pusillanmity,
then we have studied the science Of cause
