RESPECTS TO LAMAR.
The joint convention adopted the following
resolutions on the death Of Justice Lamar:
Be it resolved by tho legislative assembly Of
the state of North Dakota:
First-That this assembly has heard with I'M
fei9ned regret of the sudden death of Hon. L.
@. q. Lamar, associate chief justice of the
United States. That in his disease another
star has vanished from the galaxy of America
living greatness, than which, though collapsed
perhaps in brillianey by some, none have shown
with a purer, steadier light aud radiance.
~Second-That we rejoice that when the nation
was emerging from the BLOODY cataclysm of fra
trfcfdal strife. ere yet the dark clouds of mis-
trust had disappeared or the angry lnuttcrings
of sectional passion had died out, that his was
one of the first voices calling amid the storm for
peace, forbearance and reconciliation.
That he was one Of the earliest to urge upon
the reconstructed states that as integral parts
of TIE great government. it was their unQues-
tionable duty. as patriots end citizens. to &C

STRENGTHENING the mighty fabric in every joint
and fibre after the terrible ordeal to which it
had been subjected.
That. undeterred BY hostile criticism and
party rancor, Conscious of his own purity Of in
tent and patriotism OF purpose. above the
petty temptations Of sectional popularity, he
loved to see his Judgment vindicated and his
country moving on through years Of fertilizing
peace to the goal Of united, happy and prosper
Gus people.
Third-Tbat as a United States senator in a

pendence OF character, and loyalty to convic-
ton, that impelled him to disregard the bidding
Of a mistaken legislature, and appeal TO the
people for vtndicatlOn and that his triumph
was signal and complete.
Fourth-Thlt we express our high admiration
OF that happy eQuipoise of temperament that
and high sense Of honor, attracted alike the
friendship and affection of political friend and
foe in common That as q kind friend. q de-
Christian The bore without reproach the grand
old name Of gentleman"
Fif;h-Tha5 having served many years in the
les. social science and law, and with a success
full career as an advocate. he brought to the ju-
dlcial questions a fine native intellect en-
liched by a compendlous knowledge, analytical
training and amplitude Of illustration and
practical experience that enabled him to pre-
serve just temper between the mere man of
theory that cah see nothing but general princi-
pals and the mere man Of business, who can see
nothing but particular circumstances that
marks the perfect lawyer.
Sixth-We also believe that now his life 60
full of judicial independence and dignity y, and
SO full Of professional honor, and with unlimit-
ed public respect. has closed, and the deep,
damp vault may claim it's prey and the oasket
will snatch the jewel from the grave and en-
shrine it in the annals of his oountry's imper-
ishable memorv.
seventh-That though we know that grief is
q vestal virgin that retires In secret to hide he1
woe, We trust that some echo of this tribute
of respect from the far-cff northwest may
penetrate the halls OF mourning and Gear some
consolation to the sorely bruised hearts Of his
family and friends.
