was like the curl in pigs tail; more
for ornament than for use.
The Resolutions were then adopted,
by very slim vote but without oppo.
sition; and the Convention then
adjourned.
As to what made the Convention so
slim, there can be but one opinion.
1t was lack of interest. There had
been rain the night before, and the
roads were muddy; but it didn't rain
any ON Saturday; and the river Is very
low. There was nothing to hinder
the Delegates from coming if they had
wanted to. II our own Convention
this week is as small, and circumstan-
ces remain as they were last Saturday,
we shall simply conclude tina: both
parties are equally apathetic. But We
earnestly hope for better things OF the
Republicans " this County.
