Resoired, That we cordially endorse
the general measures Of the Republi-
can party In Congress, aud although

practicable day.
Resotred, That we heartily approve
the course Of our late able representa-
tive in Congress, Hon. John B. Packer,
and ask for him AT some future day
more prominent place in our State.
RESOLVED, That the Republican party
continue to remember with gratitude
the soldiers and sailors of the Republic
for the patriotism, courage, and self
sacrifice With which they gave them

recovery from it more difficult As we'll
