aud MeDuuga1 Gen. Scott attended the fu-

THOSE RESOLUTIONS-

Tie resolutions Of our Union County
Convention are becoming somewhat an
arple Of discord among the members Of
nat body. We publish two communica-
Ions 1e1cwith-one from a delegate who
oug1: TO know about all there is to be
know in the premises, and another from
the officers Of the Convention, who ought
also 10 know it all. The two letters do
net materially disagree in the statement Of
bare facts, but the one signed by the Presi'
dent and Secretaries Of the Convention en-
braces series Of resolutions not adopted.
but prepared by the Committee on Resolu'
ticds. The inference which We draw from
this communication is that the officers ol
the Convention prefer the series which
they send US TO those presented to the
Convention by DR.. Evans, and informally
ado:ted. We hesitate not to say that VT
deem the Evans resolutions mmeasurablJ
preferable to those Of the Committee
