warm debate with Judge George NJ. Beebe, OF

ton declaring that David b. Hill was New
Yorks sole candidate for President, and, secondly
for any other New-York candidate. This rcsolu-
ton met with general opposition, and it. was
referred TO committee of five by an almost
unanimous vote The vote substantially killed
the resolution The action of the delegation
showed that a majority o. its members is rest
less under the Hill yoke, and will break that
yoke as soon as it dares.
