business, that he would take care of the
Indians. San Francisco valley was made
desoate by Indians. The settlers are
fleeing for their lives. When prominen,
officers around the command sent note
to Hatch stating that by a certain move
ment he could correIl Victoria 10 Book

Victoria escaped. The people of Western
New Mexico are bitter against Hatch,
Upwards of $50 citizens have been killed
in New Mexico by the bands of Indians

| WHEREAS, The report of the sub-com-
mittee heretofore appointed having been
accepted and filed it is now resolved that
the committee be discharged, and that a
committee consisting OF Root of IIlineis,

pointed. to perfect all necessary arrange
ments for the control of the halls. which
are or may be required by the National
Com mlttee for the use of the convention.
Judge George Z. Hoar was selected by
the committee as temporary chairman for
the convention, and Col. j. III. Roberts, of
Chicago. was appointed temporary secra-
tary. These nominations were made on
the recomme ndation of the committee
appointed for the purpose. and consisting

ing, which did not adjourn until after
midnight, but will come up tomorrow.
The anti Grant members of the commit
tee claim substantial victory on every
point so tar, having displaced the commit
tee OF arrangements, which was composed
of Grant men entirely with new commit
tee, on which the opposition are in the
majority, and having named a temporary
chairman who is perfectly satisfactory to
them. The popularity of Chairman
Cameron's ruling on the Chaffee resolution
against the unit rule was that he did not
decide it out of order. but simply refused
to entertain it, and consequently when
ChaHee appealed he declared that there
was nothing before the house, and that
there could be no appeal. The contest
will be renewed to morrow over the unit
rule.
A letter has been received by Judge
Hoar from Senator Edmuuds declining
absolutely to allow the use of his name as
candidate for president. The friends of
Gen. Grant believe that this will help
them. while the Vermont delegates,
although refusing to state who their second
choice will be, say they will not vote for
Grant. A Massachusetts, delegate said
that Edmunds' withdrawal would add
twenty votes to Sherman's SCORE.
The southern delegates have beer the
objects of great solicitude and devoted
attention for forty eight hours past. 1t is
claimed by the Grant men that they have
gained IN that quarter, claim which the
friends of the other candidates refuse to
allow, The principal candidates have
very active aud very confident friends.
