The Committee on Resolutions, through
Hon, Charles Dewey, the Chairman, present.
ed the following:
ResoiUed. That the election of Horace
Greeley and Gratz Brown, would place in
power the men who did all they could to
break the Union into fragments, while that
Of Grant and Wilson would insure the con-
tinued ascendency of the men who saved the
Union when in mortal peril.
Resolved, That this Convention heartily
approve and endorse the resolu and
I Il, e \ l.
can Convention held in Philadelphia in June
last, and also the resolution adop;ed at the
recen: State Repu blican Convention held in
Montpelier, June 9th, and will give the
principles therein set forth and tickets nomi-
mated at those Conventions, our cheerful
and earnest support in the ensuing election.
RESOLVED, That we approve the ticket OF
| senators and county officers this day nOmi-
mated, and will give the same our cordial
support
The resolutions were adopted. Speech
making was now the order of the day, and
loud calls were made for Hon. Heman Car
penter of North0eld. Mr.. Carpenter came
forward and in response made brief but
telling speech, sharply eriticising Horace
Greeley's course in the past and present.
Hon. John Gregory was called for, but
excused himself from speaking, and brought
forward his man in the person of Hon.
| Charles III. Heath of Plainfeld. Mr.. Heath
spoke earnestly and eloquently. He insisted
it was quite natural the Southern rebe Is
should desire now to kill Grant, because
Grant had killed SO many rebels during the
late onpleasantness. He asserted that Gree
ley of right belonged to the copperheads
who represented the old Bourbons, know
ing nothing, and in their.egotistic folly inca
pable OF ever learning anything. The lessons
of the past were to them sealed revelations
and they deemed it possible by a party
triumph to once more put the baying bounds
upon the black mans footprints as he fed
toward the North and freedom. He exhort.
ed Republicans everywhere to close up the
ranks, fall into line and follow to victory
their great file leaders-GrGnt and Wilson.
The Convention then adjourned, sine d,e
| For the Freeman.
