OF tho Association, but no quorum being
present nothing was done in reference to

credit Of the State, when he was asked il
that question was under discussion. He
replied that it was not yet in order to

then attempted to proceed, but the inter

fusion SO great, that he was forced to dis.
continue and announce the chair ready
for business. Resolutions for the ap.
pointuent OF Committees on Credentials
and Permanent Organization were passed
amid much disorder. On the call Of the
delegations by Congressional districts, to
name member Of these committees, an.
other scene Of turbulence and disorder

named, the Convention took recess, and
