been formally pronounced dead IS Julius Cesar by the
perro-phobas Of the Sogth. They have postponed
the burial until tomorrow and may think better OF 1t,
but break up in grand row seems inevitable The
LAW faction is now the only bond of union.
AT the opening in the afternoon, Dir. Stevcnss reso-
uton 10 make Federal representation the basis OF all
nportapt voting was Unexpectedly Withdrawn, ana
debate was Immediately opened upon the Ely ana
brewster proposition. Mr. Ford Of Ohio made sur
rir,- Northern speech The New-lork members quar-
rel,d "a 10 whether their constituents repudlated or

for the Twelfth. C. C. Bur- made negrophob.A
speech. Others declared that two thirds oil tue Ne"
York Americans repudated the Twelfth Section ana
that the party there could not have stood up WIN
that on their backs. Mr. Ely of Massachusetts, eN-
pounded bis propositions as Amercauisn when we
came together, but for Slavery at the South and Anu
Slavery at the North. Thus he said we have two
