stop valves l would simply say to Mr..
Huber that l was the lowest bidder for the

THE OLD GUARD.

COnkliDs's Supporters Stand Firm.
ALBANY, June 13-The joint cOnventiO
met at noon with Lieutenant Governor
Hoskins in the chair, and proceeded to
vote for q senator to fill the vacancy caus-
ed by the resignation of Mr.. Conkling.
The vOte-was as follows Wheeler 16,
Conkling "a, Jacobs 26, Cornell s,
Rogers IL, Lapham 6. Tremaine 3,
Folger 2, Bradley 1. No choice. Mr..
Spinola offered resolution that pairing
shall not hereafter be recognized and no
leave of absence shall be granted.
Mr.. Hustled raised the point of order
that the resolution was not in order,
which point was sustained by the chair on
the ground that according to the law of
Congress the voting must be taken for the
other vacancy, after that the convention
could act on the resolution if it saw fit.
The convention then proceeded to vote
for a senator to fill the vacancy caused by
the resignation of Mr.. Platt. The vote
was as follows: Depew 36, Cornell 6,
Herman q, Folger ), Platt 81, Crowley 3,
Lapham 2. No choice.
Mr.. Spinola called up his resolution.
Senator Robertson was heartily in favor of
80 much of the resolution as refers to not
recognizing pairing. After some discus
sion Mr.. Spinola asked that the matter lie
over until tomorrow which was agreed to,
and the joint convention adjourned.

have been different. As he has been guilty
of no sort of ofconcealment about his calling,
We bespeak for him the patience and con-
sideration of all who voted for him. The
moral of his performance is that We must
not expect to change . mans nature by
electing him to the. vice presidency, and
must not suppose, as We often do, that
electing man to any Office will be re-
ceived by him as an intimation that he
must change his ways. On the contrary,
he naturally receives it as an intimatiOn
that we rather like his ways.

he had justice done him on the trial,

he had served term in the peniten-

another affair; he blamed whisky, and
not his own evil nature, and was ready

umn folio paper just started at Lake
Charles, by our former townsman and
companion in the printing business, Mr..
John Mccormick. The paper is very
neat in appearance and we'll filed. We
understand that it is established on a
good basis, and is not liable to die out
after the first squirt.
