it would be my business to inquire into
the sanity of the members Of the Couyeu.

lutions seem to imply-that we are not
as we'll equipped and armed as soldier,

member Of that Convention, be of .uv
service to us :? Bat / know and Won
know that the resolution was offered for
q different purpose-a purpose for which
every member Of the Convention shoull
blush with shame-to make political
capital.

Of Missouri seems to be coming en- nsssse

that State are pretty well "clsaned out. "

close proximity to Missouri to make it
