promptly adopted mad Il motion ID re-
consider was laid upon the table by Il

One feason assigned for the extraor-

severe reflections upon Col Bennett IL

offensive as referring TO the st Adams

The convention has at last developed

About 5000 copies Of the proceedings
were issued each day, and Col H. Polk
