Gus CHILD made the following remarks:
object to the passage of the resolutions. as
not containing one word cOmmendatory of the
President OF the United States. Are we to 20
before the people on the ground of opposition to
the President? The resolutions do not deign 20
commend what he has done, or even 10 mention
his name. They simply commit the Convention
to certain ultra notions, and discard all others
There WAS not in the resolutions one word in
commentator of what the President or his Cabi
net has done.
In spite of this appeal, the Convention ad-
journed without a word Of commentator thus
appealed for An omission with emphasis.
