The Republican Delegate Elections--Two
Candidates have Four Wards Each—The
Bloody Third 2 , holds the Balance of
Power.
The 'Republican primary meetings, for the
purpose of selecting delegates to a convention,
to be held on Wednesday next, for the selec
tion of candidates for Mayor, Controller and
Treasurer, were held on Saturday.
_ Three candidates had been named for Mayor,
Messrs.' B: C. Sawyer, Jr., George Wilson
and Win. T. Murdoch. It became evident,
however, that the latter had no chance, and
the struggle concentrated on the two candi
dates drat named.
- The contest was a close one, and the friends
of the respective candidates worked faithfully
for them. The result leaves the matter, un
fortunately, in as much uncertainty as before.
By the following list it will be seen that in the '
First; Seventh, Eighth and Ninth Wards.dele
gates favoring the nomination of Mr. Sawyer
were elected, and in the Second, Fourth, Fifth
and Sixth the friends of Mr. Wilson triumphed.
In the Third Ward it seemed to be "every
man for himielf," as two elections were hold,
one at the curter of Sixth and Smithfield, and
one at the comer of Wylie and Tunnel.
The:names of the delegates, with their in
structions for Mayor, are as follows:
FIRST WARD—Joseph Brown, George Wil
son, John Sarber, W. F. Richardson, James
T. Kinkaid, Jr.- -instructed for Sawyer.
1 SECOND WARD—John L. Boyd, Thomas
F. Wilson, John Marshall, John Wilson,
. _Hamlet Lowe—instructed for Wilson.
- - THIRD WARD—Robert Allingham, Joseph
Hastings, Henry Haley, 0. H. Rippey, Dr. T.
J. Gallaher—instructed for Wilson.
And—Geo. W. Leonard, Andrew Simms.
: Alex. Mitchell, J. H. Robinson, John Beck,
Jr.—instructed for Sawyer.
FOURTH WARD—Sall:el Lindsay, Jr., Rowan
....3leClure, Nelson Hersh, Joshua Ithodes, John
Fullerton—instructed for Wilson.
FIFTH WARD—Chauncey Carroll, George
Caughey, Joseph Kaye ' James Taylor, Thomas
Harris—instructed for Wilson.
- SETra WARD john Phillips, William B.
Hays, Theodore Robbins, A. B. Berger, Wm.
• . Culp—instructed for Wilson.
SEVENTH WARD—Geo. Gumbert, William
- Mays, John Hoffer, Lewis Roll, Robt. Thomp
son—instructed for Sawyer.
• - Euswra WARD—C. H. Bcurmaun, E. D.
.Ditheridge, William - Hutchinson, S. R. Pat
. tenon, F. Freiderich—instructed fn• Sawyer.
NINTH WARD—Joseph Reed, Daniel Ag
new, J. Routh, W. Williams, James Lewis—
instructed for Sawyer.
The delegates, we learn, were, generally, left
- to use their own discretion as to the candidates
for Treasurer and Controller.
_ -It is difficult to predict how this contest will
. terminate. Both sets of delegates from the
:Mini Ward will, of course, demand seats in
the convention, and both may get them. in
- the latter- case each candidate would have
twenty-five V'otes--or in case both are excluded
-twenty. This will not be decided until Wed
nesday, unless the candidates should agree
upon A coraprOinise and one set withdraw. In
the there will, 'we - doubt not, be sorise
tieavy log-rolling, to induco some one delegate
to depart from his instructions. But when the
convention comes off. we shall see what WO
shall sea. We Democrats look on much as the
woman did whose husband fought with the
. -bear—not caring much which whips.

Astorran,=-The application of J. B. M'Don
ough for his final discharge under the insol
vent laws, was argued in the Court of Corn
; mon Pleas on Saturday, by John M. Kirkpat
rick and Thomas M. Marshall, Esq., for peti
tioner, and Tiles. ilaanilt6n on the other
bide. This case has occupied the attention of
the Court several times. It will be remember
' ed that M'Donough was,conyieted of affilia.
'Eton with Miss Lizzie Murphy, and sentenced
to pay the usual expenses, instead of which he
chose to serve a term of three months in jail.
A preliminary order was made for the dis-
Charge of his bail -bond under the insolvent
' laws, but the oppasing counsel contending that
the application was made one term too soon,
the case was ordered to be put on the argument
list. An ineffectual effort to do this WWI made
by Counsel, and on Saturday the matter came
1;:p for argument on the question of releasing
the asiciirity: It rush ably contested by the
gentlemen named, and at the hour of adjourn
ment the Court took the papers and promised
an early. decision.
ASSAITLT O-N OFFICES.—James Porter
was committed to jail on Saturday, to answer
a charge of assault and battery with intent to
lad an officer, James Man, of the Mayor's po-
Pirrter was arrested on Friday for disc.' ,
derly conduct, and locked up in one of the
watch-house cells, where he drew a pistol and
threatened-to - shoot, officer Munn, who arrested
him. Officers:Clark and Munn attempted to
• tiake the weapon from him, considering it den
, gereugfor him to be:allowed to keep it, and in
the melee the. pistol was fired at the latter,
this ball narrowly missing hii head and lodging
in die ceiling. The weapon might have gone
off
,acoiaentally, but it was the opinion of
- Munn that Porter tried to shOot him. The
pistol was taken from him, and in the morning,
"the Mayor, after hearing the circumstances,
ccxtinitted him for trial on the above charge.
This Porter is the same who made the:attack
on officer Hamilton at Iron City Park, last

I, Leonard Chase, of .Milford, N'ow Hamp
shire, certify that for near two years and one
half previous to the last of August, 1858, I had
been afflicted with neuralgia, which had con
stantly grown more severe, and finally affected
the whole right side. I had consulted some of
the most eminent physicians in New England,
but received from them no permanent relief.
I suffered excruciating pain, and for several
months had not enjoyed a quiet night's sleep.
My 'right arm was nearly paralyzed, and for
many months I could not raise my hand to
my head, or put on or take off my coat or vest
without help. • I could not attend to my busi•
ness, and had well nigh relinquished all hope
of relief. On the first application of the Ner
vous Curative, furnished me by Peter Lawson,
Esq., I experienced immediate relief from
pain, and slept soundly all night. Since that
time I hav3 constantly improved in health
and strength, am now able to attend to my
business, and enjoy quiet sleep. The neuralgic
pains have left me entirely, and my health is
better than it has been for many years.

Milford, N. H., February 19, 1869.
I, Loammi B. Ward. of Milford, New Hamp
shire, certify that my wife, Rachel C. 'Ward,
has been afflicted with neuralgia for more than
fifteen years. At first her teeth and head only
were affected, but in a short time it attacked
her neck and spine, and for more than ten
years has affected her entire body so that she
has been, utterly unable to do any work for a
considerable portion of the time. Up to about
two months ago scarcely a day has passed, for
ten years, when she was not obliged to lie in
bed during a, large part of the time. I con
sulted many physicians, but she never obtained
any relief till about two months ago, when she
commenced applying the Nervous Curative,
furnished by Peter Lawson, Esq. On the sec
ond application, the neuralgic pains entirely
left her, and she has continued to improve
steadily. Her appearance bas changed much
for the better. She is now able to keep about
her work during the entire day, and the pain
has ceased to afflict her.
LOAMMI B. WARD.
Milford, N. 11., January 24th, 1859.
This certifies that about eight weeks ago, I
was taken sick with a violent attack of neu
ralgia, from which I suffered the most. excru
tiating pain I ever endured, in my head, face
and neck. For three days and two nights,
during the time of my sickness, I found nei
ther rest nor sleep. I tried several remedies for
neuralgia, but only suffered the more. On the
third night, I was induced by a friend to send
for the Hon. Peter Lawson, having acciden
tally learned that ho had discovered a remedy
for neuralgia. Mr. Lawson sent me a bottle
of hie Nervous Curative. It was applied early
in the evening, according to directions, and in
less than half an hour I was in a profound
sleep, which continued about eight hours.
When I awoke I was much refreshed, and the
pain was nearly gone. La two more applica
tions I was entirely- free from pain, and have
continued so. I have applied it several times,
and it has strengthened my nerves. My health
has much improved, my appetite is good, and
I am now able to attend to my daily busine,s.
I would also state that I have also tried it on
my son George, for neuralgia and nervous
headache, with equal success, and do cheerful
ly recommend it to those catering with neu
ralgia, or any nervous disease.
engt.sa.t, May 6, 1859.
PETER LAW:SON, Esq.—Feeling that it is the
duty of those who have been cured of a pain
ful disease by any new remedy to do all they
can to make the remedy known, I write you
this letter of acknowledgment to me as you
may see fit. I have been many times, with
other members of my family, a sufferer from
neuralgia, and have despaired .of any relief,
when it was my good fortune to, got a bottle of
your Nervous Curative. I found in it instant
relief, after a few applications. Since using it
I have experienced a - freedom from pain, and
an undisturbed sleep. Tcheerflilly'recommend
your Nervous Curative to all Sufferers from
neuralgic attacks in any part of the systoth.

LOWELL, Mass., June 4, 1859.
Ma. LAWSON:—Having been cured by the
use of your Nervous Curative of. a severe at
tack of neuralgia, it becomes my duty to give
my testimony of its efficiency for the benefit
of those similarly afflicted. I had been suffer
ing for four or five months with this painful
disease, and had tried nearly all other reme
dies to urpose, when, with but little ex
pectatio T - applied your Curative.
The benelltted me much, and
having used nearly two bottles of it, lam
restored to my usual health. I hope that all
afflicted with neuralgia will give your Cura
tive a faithfuletrial.

January 25, 1859.
PETER Lawsort, Esq.—Mr Dear Sir : I can
not let this opportunity pass without express
ing my gratitude to you for tbe wonderful re
lief I experienced from the use of your Nervous
Curative for my neuralgia, a complaint which
nothing previously tried had relieved. I have
been troubled with neuralgia more or less-for
the last twelve years. When I madethe first ap
plication, five months ago, I must confess I bad
no faith in any remedy. I was suffering with
extreme pain all• over my bogy, myarms being
quite benumbed,and my legs paralyzed so that I
could. not use them. I could not rest or sleep
at all, nor had I been able to sleep for months.
I made the first application in the evening, by
applying your Nervous Curative very freely to
the head and spine, and all parts affected, as
directed. /..am happy t, inform you that my
first night of sound sleep folloy;od. I slept
eight hours or more. I had triedirvery reme
dy I could hear of and consulted the most em
inent physicians in New England and New
York, but never - found any relief. Three days
before applying your Nervous Curative, I was
given up incurable. At times, for six months
previous to adopting your Nervous Curative,
I was very much troubled with neuralgia on
the brain, so that I was quite insensible at times
and my mind• wandered often. I have had
slight nains at times since my first application,
..hatio my o; ce, and atten. to my
usual, I sleep well, and have a_good appetite.
lam gratefully yours, C. E. LEWIS.
LOWELL, Mass.,June Ist, 1859.
HON. PETER L.A.Nrsor.—Par Sir; It. is with
great pleasure that I inform you that I have
used your Nervous Curative with the most
satisfactory success. I have been tidubled for
some years with a severe pain in my head, so
that at times I was almost incapable of attend
ing to my business. lily using your Curative,
I found almost immediate relief. My wlfe had
been subject to neuralgia in her head and teeth,
so as to deprive her of sleep several nights.
On applying the Curative two or three times,
'she was entirely cured, and has not been
troubled with it.. She has also used it with
like success for the rhetimatism. I world ad
vise all who are allliated, with any of thodis
eases for which the Nervous Curative is recom
mended, to try it immediately, and thereby
avoid much .suffering.

PETER lawso:s—Dear Sir : It is with a sen
sation of pleasure to ourselves and gratitude to
you, that I take my pen to inform you of the
recovery ofmy wife by the use of your "Nervous
Curative." For two and a half years past my
wife has been unable to attend to the family
and household duties, on account of the most
intense suffering from the most agonizing of
all pains arising from neuralgia on the sciatic
nerve. The consequent loss of sleepand debility
rendered her recovery almost hopeless, and no
remedy,proved efficacious, although many of
them had been prescribed by the most eminent
physician in the State. On the recommenda
tion of J. Short, conductor of the Boston and
Lowell Railroad, a bottle your Nervous Cura
tive was forwarded to her by Mr. Leavitt, our
worthy station agent, a few months since, and
applied during one of the severest attacks of
the disease; to our astonishment it afforded al
most immediate relief, and has restored her
from suffering, so that she now enjoys sweet
and refreshing sleep. We have used two bot
tles of it, and still continue to use it, as we find
it strengthens her nerves every day. She now
enjoys better health than she has for years.
We earnestly and most sincerely recommend
your valuable remedy for all afflicted with
nervous diseases, satisfied they will find it such
a blessing as never to be without it, or recom
mending it to their friends We are sincerely
and gratefully yours, L. STRATTON,

plied your Nervous Curative, according to di

PETZII. LAWSON, ESQ.—Dear Sir: It gives
rue great pleasure, at this time, to assure you
of the benefit which I have derived from the
use of your Nervous Curative cure for neural
gia and kindred diseases. For several weeks I
suffered very much from neuralgia, both in Ms'
arms and legs. I was unable to walk, my left
arm bad become nearly paralyzed, and for
many nights I had been deprived of refreshing
sleep. Having made use of various applica
tions without obtaining Mier, I was advised to
try your Nervous Curative, and 1 can now
heartily testify to its worth. On the first appli
cation I experienced relief from pain, so as to
sleep quietly for several hours, and in four
days from the time of my commencing to use
the Nervous Curative, I was able to walk
about the house, and use my arms quite natu
rally. Since then my nerves have continued
to grow stronger. I can now walk easily and
without pain, and can use my arms almost as
well as ever. Hoping that many an afflicted
one, by faithfully using your Nervous Cura
tive, may experience similar effects, and as
suring you . of my continued health,
I remain, most respectfully yours,

PETER LA WHO N, Esq.—My Dear Friend :
On the night of the ldth of October last, I was
attacked with rheumatism, 1 extending along
the spine and between the shoulders. It was
so severe that it was with difficulty I could
sleep upon my bed. Three :days after this I
was attacked with the gout, and seventeen
days after with neuralgia in coy side, which
confined me to the house for more than three
months. When I met you on the 11th day of
April in the Horticultural . Rooms, Roston, it
was with clittictilty and much pain that I could
walk. You told me of your Nervous Curative,
and were kind enough to send rne'e bottle of it
on the 11th day of April. At this time I had
very little faith in any externjil applications,
having tried many linimentsand mixtures
without the least good effect. I made use of
your curative that night, and to my surprise it
gave me groat relief from that time to the
present day. I have used it each night and
found great relief. I would not lie without it.
My business, as you well know, is that of a
nurseryman, and at this season of the year I

It was so lame that I could with difficulty raise
my hand to my bead. I rubbed on the Cura

and has not troubled me since. The Nervous

I, Edwin S. Trow, of Milford, N. H, certify
that my mother, widow Sarah Trow—who has
for many years been afflicted with neuralgia—
being attacked by severe neuralgic pains while
on a visit to me last September, was induced to
try some of Mr. Lawson's Nervous Curative.
The first application produced immediate relief
from pain, and while she remained with me,
(some more than three weeks after,) she did not
suffer from neuralgia.

MILFORD, N. IL, February 28, 1859.
1, Abel A. Lovejoy, of Milford, N.ll, cer
tify that my wifo, Mary Jane Lovejoy, has
been subject to frequent and severe attacks of
neuralgia for the last fifteen years. About
two months ago, she had 'a very severe attack,
and was advised by a neighbor to try M. 7. Law
son's Nervous Curative.
,The first application
gave her relief from pain. She has not used
the Curative since, but only some four or five
times when she had neuralgic pains, and it has
never failed to give almost instantaneous relief.

Ma. LAwsos—Dear Sir: I have to express
my gratitude to you for a bottle of your Nerv
ous Curative. My wife has been suffering for the
la-t three years front a bad shoulder, which has
been very painful—so much so, that she could
not sleep nights, nor attend to her household du
ties during the day, but since using the Nerv
ous Curative she has been perfectly free from
pain, and is now able to attend to her family as
usual. We have used it in our house for
tes and chilblains, with perfect success
in releaving us from pain.
Yours, truly, ALMON WOOD.
WILTON, N 11 March :Ist. ItA3:l
This is to certify that my wife has been
afflicted with neuralgia for several years and
never got any satisfactory relief, until three
weeks ago, when I bought a bottle of Mr.
Lawson's Nervous Curative. After one ap
plication the pain ceased, and 61 . y has had only
a slight return of the pain, so slight that she
did not think it worth while to apply the med
icine. I can cheerfully recommend this truly
wonderful medicine, to all who are similarly
afflicted. I bought it of Ferdinand S. Hutch
inson, at East Wilton, who is agent for it , sale.

'PETER LAWSON, K . N.-DCll,i fir: The bot
tle of your Nervous Curative which you so
kindly sent me, has fairly put me on my feet
again, for which I beg to return you my best
thanks.
I had been for some days suttering greatly
from rheumatism in my left leg, particularly
the knee, so much so that I could not move
without assistance, and when changin,,,— my
position had to hare the leg lifted or sot down.
1 had also been unable to get any sleep for
6eceral nights„ when on TUPAIIy last you gave
me the bottle of your Nervous Curative; and
although the limb was so sure that I could not
bear any pressure. still, after the first applica

could bear to have it (thy 1i,1,7) well rubbed.
I have continued to improve since, and, I
am happy to say, am now able to resume my

I am determittki never to be without a bot

LA WI-ON'S NERVOUS CURATivE ANT) NERVE
Tomi:.--Sonie months since the proprietor of
this preparation discovered the wonderful
properties of the Ingredients of which it is
combined, in suitable proportions. The al
most instantaneous zeliet it afforded in nervous
affections induced him to place it in the hands
of his friends and neighbors, of this city, who
were . thus afflicted, whether it . assumed, the
type of - nduralgia or othdr mid inciter forms of
I the same nervous affection. The results were
surprising, and through their representations,
Mr. Lawson has been induced to offer the Cu
rative to the public. That it possesses an effi
ciency greatly superior to any other prepara
tion for the same purpose, with which we are
acquainted, we can testify from actual observa
tion. We have witnessed the effect it has
produced in effecting permanent cures of this
terrible disease. We know instances where
individuals, for years afflicted, have been per
manently restored to health by its use. This
information is "equally shared by the commu
nity around us. The parties Nyho have been
thus befiffillted, are well known as among the
most respectable of our citizens. They will be

testify to the correctness of our statements.

articles than MI and lead. Their manufacture has been
analysed by competent chemists in dithircut cities o r
the country, and they hare invariably given their verdict
that it is pure carbonate of lead and linseed oil. Their
lead is not only strictly pure, but is remarkable for its
fineness and whiteness. The best judge, of the articles

THIRTY-SIXTH CONGRESS.
FIRST SESSION.
WA-SHINCiTON CITY, December 10.—The
Senate was not in session to-day.
HOUSE.—Mr. Hickman, of Pennsylvania,
moved an amendment to the' journal, as no
mention had been made therein of his resolu
tion for the adoption of the plurality rule.-
The Clerk said that the resolution was merely
mado for information.
Mr. Hickman insisted that he had the right
to offer the resolution, which took precedence
of all other questions. He asked for a decision
of the question.
Mr. Grow, of Pennsylvania, wed Mr. Wash
borne, of Maine,: contended that Mr. Hick
man had the right to introduce the resolu
tion.
Mr. Houston, of Alabama, took the opposite
side of the argument.
Mr. Stanton, of Ohio, said that even -if he
should yield the floor, to which ho was entitled,
the resolution could not be entertained now, as
other questions were pending.
Mr. 'Hickman replied that the remark did
not apply to him. - He should vote for a Re
publican in preference to any gentleman who
sustains this administration. (Applause on the
Republican side, intermingled with hisses from
the other side.)
Mr. Reagan said that nobody doubted that
the gentleman would vote for the Republicans
and against a Democrat. Ho repeated that the
object of this unlawful' attempt to act upon
that resolution, was to shield gentlemen from
the responsibility of doing indirectly what they
would not do directly.
Mr. Reagan, of Texas, took occasion to say
that the pluraTV resolution was designed to
enable men to vonx-Indirectly for a Black Re
publican, when they - 1 , 7 4 0 t Id \ not come up like
men, and vote directly for sucks nominee.
Mr. Hickman—l have never nqnceded any,.
where what my ultimate action would be. I
prefer the election of a sound Democrat; by
that I mean a Democrat opposed to this Ad
ministration—an an ti-Lecompton Democrat—
I have endeavored for a week to elect such a
man, but I am beginning to fear that I shall be
unable to consummate that work. I believe that
either a friend of the Administration nr a Re
publican is ultimately to be elected Speaker.—
' am frank to say, in that event, I have decided
on the choice of the latter. I have offered
this resolution for the purpose of .reaching an
organization. If the Administration party
succeed, I trust 1 shall submit in becoming
spirit, lam perfectly willing that every man
in the country should know my views. Let
the motion to amend the journal bo put to the
House to decide.
Wm. Smith, of Virginia, said that the mo
tion was unnecessary in his view of the sub
ject. If the gentleman means to vote for the
Republican nominee, he and those thinking
with him can do so, and thus ends the ques
tion. Nu man who has witnessed that gentle
man's course for the last two years could doubt
that he would at last land in the Republican
ranks. Ho says he wants a sound Democrat
elected, and yet will vote with the Republi
cans. Who does he fool by such a doctrine as
that" The members of the Democratic party
are here to perform a high and holy duty to
their country. I want him to be understood
as a Bieck Republican, who only takes the
name of Democrat for the purpose of hood
winkinti and misleading. Let me ask him,
would he vote for Mr. Bocrick to-day if he
would rise and say that he was opposed to the
Administration
Mr. Rickman frankly and unequivocably
replied that he would not, because Mr. Bo
cock sustained the Administration in every
thing it has done, and he, Mr. Hickman, was
nut a believer in eleventh hour repentance.
(Laughter.) Be would continue to regard
himself as a Democrat, notwithstanding the
remarks of the gentleman from Virginia. It
is a question that will be decided by the whole
country whether James Buchanan, or those
who hold to the sentiments of the Cincinnati
platform in its integrity, embody the Demo
cratic sentiment.
A lengthy discussion ensued between Messrs.
Horace F. Clark of N. Y., and William
Smith, of Va., on political principles.
In answer to an inquiry put by Mr. Clark,
whether Mr. Smith would deem it as good
ground far a dissolution of the Union, if he
should find the people of the North combined
hs a sectionalparty against the South, Mr.
Smith replied that whenever the combination
of a majority is formed for the purpose of war
ring on the constitutional rights of
_any section
of the Union, lam out. LApplause.]
Mr. Clark.--So a.m.!, Sir; but you have not
answered my question.
Mr. Smith said ho would not undertake to
say if any particular man should be elected
President ho would initmediattdy favor a disso
lution of the Union. "Sulacient for the day is
tho evil thereof."
Mr. Clu7ry,. of Alabama, made a lengthy
speech on abolitionism, in which ho referred
to the law in some of the States, giving negroes
the right of suffrage to the operation of the
underground railroad, and to the frequent re
sistance of the fugitive slave law, and argued'
that the South had got reason to be under ap
prehension. He flaked if yen had the power
of the government to abolish slavery, and ren
der slave property insecure, would you do it?
Mr. Kilgore, of Indiana, Ropublican,-Islo,
not in the Southern States.
Mr. Curry—Why, in the free States,no leggy
islation would bo necessary on the subject, but
you would gradually narrow and limit our
ground until all would have to flee from the
country of our occupancy and residence. He
referred to the 'Union Meetings of the North,
Which he like ned,to the song of the circe, lulling
the South into security. If they were in ear
nest let them give the South 'something prac
tice', by repealing their personal liheity bills,
/..4cas corpus and mandamus acts, executing
the fugitive slave law by opening their prisons
for the safe keeping of runaway slaves, revis
ing their contributions for, the circulation of
incendiary pamphlets, and turn out of COngress
the men who insult and stigmatize the South.
If. said he, the Demi.crata and our American
friends should not be able to interfere for the
security of the South and the protection of the
Constitution, I :Ehall, counsel the people of
my State to offer most effectual resistance, and
shall urge, them to fling themselves back on
their renewed rights, and upon the inalienable
sovereignty of 'the State to which I owe my
first And last allegiance. (Applause from the
Democratic benches and galleries.)
Mr. Kellogg, of Illinois—l would do an in
sult to my feelings and sense of propriety, if I
did not take the earliest opportunity to make
an apology to this House for the much to be
regretted Occurrence which took place'in the
hall yesterday; it was an offense to its dignity;
a breach of its harmony and decorum, and for
it I tender to this body my regrets and apology.
Mr. Logan-,,After what has been said by
my worthy colleague, I conceive it to be my
duty to.say to this House that if, in the excite
ment of yesterday, I violated any of the rules.
of this House, or its decorum, I regret it very
much,' and hope it will not tend' t) mar any of
my relations with the meruhers Of this House.
Mr. John 'Cochiane---After this restoration
of the entenfy coi - dial; I move that the House do
now . adjourn. Carried by a vote of one hun
dred and twelve to 'one hundred and eight.
