the buildingfup of this Convention, to Sc
cure and to mix in its body u majority of
members favorable to disunion, and then
to decide in favor of disuniou: and pro-

the appointment of "Yigilance Committees
and minute men," (Nn0thcr name for Jac-
obin clubs) in every comfy and mngistc-

Goblin clubs to be set to work in every cor
