The Committee on Resolutions was IN session dur
ing the entire proceedings of the Convention Two
of its me nbers opposed tho unqualified approval OF
the Presidents course in tho Louisiana matter, and
made very earnest effort to save the party from
such disgrace. These were the Hon. Ezra Hall OF
Hartford and Prof. Sumner Of New-Hayen. They
were unable to effect anything however and the
resolutions Of undiminished confidence were put
through in spite of them. The Hartford and New
Haven delegations were understood to be united in
opposition to this unqualified Endorsement, and IN
favor of some expression which should not commit
the party so absolutely. There was consultation
a. TO whether there should be any attempt to amend
the resolutions in the Convention, but it was de-
cded to be impractcablc and was abandoned The
resolutions are as follows:

The second resolution which it will be observed is
somewhat cunningly drawn so as to bring into
prominence the approval of the Presidents declara
ton that military interference with State Legisla-
ture is repugnant to our ideas of government. while
il indorses unquaedly his action in Louisiana, was
very vigorously appauded. There was just enough
of ambiguity in the phraseolOgy to tickle them
with the idea that there cheat in it, and the
prospect of deceiying somebody pleased them
without discussion and adopted without dissent
ing voice.
The delegates seemed very well satisfied with their
work. They had nominated ticket and not been
bothered with letters of declination They had
adopted resolutions which committed the party
thoroughly to the Presidents support There was
no chance whatever for the election Of the ticket
that they knew and admitted without question:
But there was the ticket and there was the plat
form they fitted each other, and could not but sat-
isfy the President, What more 7 Only to go home,
and let the ticket be defeated by the largest majority
that any party has ever gone down under IN the
State.
