The Resolutions reported respectively
gave rise to debate, as they were presented
and read. They 1cere all defeated, Leaving
the 9th of March Platform, with the adj

Platform of this Convention. Thus have

Eptrd, That iInhued with the spirit OF true De-
mperacy, and believing that the powers necessary

THE GREAT RAIN STORM.

The record of the Smithsonian Institute
at Washington shows that tho entire fall of
rain of tho late storm was nearly six inches,
which Prof. TIESRY says exceeds the entire
amount Of any previous August for years.
The rain extended over vast section Of
the country. In New York little or none
fell west Of Geneva, mere sprinkle having
reached Rochester,. In Philadelphia il was
continuous for long time, and was ae.
companied by high winds. The damage to
property in that city and vicinity is put at
$l00,000 and that is but a small portion
of what has been sustained along it's route
from Georgia to Maine, Al Hartford
Conn.,, no two consecutive days Of good
hay weather have been experienced in o
month, West of the range of the ALE.

characterized by great heats and drouth-
