Col. Campbell, of Ohio, moved to lay
the report of the Committee on tho tablo.
He was unwilling to endorse tho Demo

knowing what they were.
A scene of great confunion ensued and
the voie was finally taken by States, when
Campbell's motion was lost, and the re

Genera! Kwing introduced a resolution
favoring the prchcrvation of the inicgri

that tho with irawal of tli3 national bank
currency and tho substitution of green
backs wax a policy favoring the few as
against the many and tending to produce
repudiation. (Jen. Kwing supported his

A delegate from California raised a

go to tho committee without debate.
A motion to suspend the rules and al

Fiak, of Indiana, made a short speech
and nominated Hendricks. He said the
delegation had voted a reasonable tirao
tor Pendleton though they should still
adhere to the gcntloman from Ohio, and
the minority of the delegates expressed
the highest respect for Hendricks, but
he said the State Convention had in
structed the delegates to vote for Poodle

The roll was then called on the seventh
ballot, Mississippi and a portion of Ten
ncasce voted for Pendleton, whose name
was vociferously cheered. A recess of
fifteen minutes was then taken. On the
eighth ballot Louisiana went over to Pen
dleton. At the conclusion of the call,
New York withdrew the name of Church
and cast a solid vote for Hendricks. This
was received with frantic cheering, min
gled with hisses. The remaining ballots
showed little change till the twelfth,
when California cast a half vote for
Chase. There was great and continued
applause in the galleries. A scene of
confusion ensued. A motion was made
to clear tfye galleries, but not acted upon
Tennessee gave one vote for cClellan
and the galleries applauded, though not
so long as for Chase. Pennsylvania still
kept solidly voting for Asa Packer. A
recess fifteen minutes was then had.

California voted variously on the different

Oregon gave a solid vote for Pendleton.
On tho fifteenth ballot Pennsylvania
went solid for Hancock, amid great
cheers. This ballot stood Pendleton
120, Hancock 79J. Hendricks 82,
Packer, Johnson, and Doolittle, each re
ceived tho same vote as on the sixtoonth

Th Element of the Republican
Parly.
It is intcicsting, occasionally, to recur
to the incidents of anti-slavery rebellions,
aid stir tho leaven of treason that was
so apparent a few years ago. Let us
probe some of the " elements " of the
present Radical party, and analyze their
constitutional parts:
At the anti.slavery meeting in New
Yojk, May, 1844, it was
Hesohcd, that accession from the Un
ion is tho duty of every abolitionist.
Itrtoleed, That 14 years of warfare
against the slave power have convinced
us that every act done in support of the
American Union rivets the chains of the
laro ; that the only exodus of the
slave to freedom, unices it be one of
blood, must be over the remains of the
present American church and the grave
of the present Union.
Reohrl Tha the abolitionists of this
country should make it one of the prim
ary objects of this agitation to dissolve
the American Union.
Our cla:m is disunion breaking up of
the Mate. -Wendell rhiJIips.
The Union is a lie. I am for its over
throw. Up with the flag of disunion.
M. L. Garrison.
It (the Republican) is the first section
al party ever organized iu this country.
It docs not know its own face, and calls
itself national, but it is not national it
ii scct'onal. The Republican par
ty U a party of the North, pledged
against the South. Wendell Phillips.
I can conceive a time when this Con
stitution will not be in existence; when
we shall have an absolute military dicta
torial government. N. P. Banks, 1850.
The Constitution is the father of all
troubles. The only hope of the slave is
over the ruiua of the Government. II.
W. Beechcr, lSGj.
The dissolution of the Union is not
primarily a question of conscience, but of
policy. We made the Union, and we
have the right to unmake it, if we choose.
Rev. II. W. Bellows, 1850.
I hive no doubt that the free and
slave States ought to be separate. The
Union is not worth supporting in connec
tion with the Souths J. S. Pike.
You call this (agitation and disregard
of laws) revolution. We crust and will
nave it. jci u come. uari cnurz.
In 1850, Sumner predicted war as the
rcu t of the irrepressible cootlict." War
fratricidal, parricidal war with an ac
cumulated wickedness of any war Ja hu
man annal.4 .
Theo are tho utterances of somo of
the owners of that party. Traitors they
now are and ever have been. How pro
phctio is the language of the inspired
Webster:
' If thct-o infernal fanatics and aboli
tionists get power in their hands they
will override the Constitution set the Su
preme Court at defiance, change and
make laws to suit themselves, lay violent
hands on tluwe who differ with them in
opinion, or dare question them in their
infallibility ; and finally they will bank
rupt the country and deluge it with
blood."
rCTs Concern ino the Comstock.
The famous Comstock vein in Nevada
has shown in thrco miles of length and
five to seven hundred feet in depth, the
richest deposit of gold and silver in the
world of the same extent, and although
worked in a wasteful and ruinous manner,
has given in five years of working about
5100,000,000 worth of ores, from which
only about $50,000,000 have been saved
although the manner of working is con
stantly becoming more perfect. There
are in round numbers sixty mills, con
taming 1,000 stamps, twenty-five furna
ces, l.uuu pans, sixty oarrois, eighty
tubs and 350 separators or settlers, en
gaged in reducing the ores of this im
mensti deposit. The yield varies from
thirty to fifty dollars per ton on different
portions of the voin. Cost ot extraction
about ten dollars per ton, and for rcduc
tion twelve dollars for raw and about
twenty-five for roasted. The Sutro Tun
nel, three and one-half miles long, will
cost over 82,000,000 in gold, but will tap
the vein two thousand feet below the
outcrop. The ineomo is estimated to be
sufficient to repay the cost of the first
year after its completion. We took a
subterranean trip through the Comstock,
while at Washoe, in tho tall of '01$ and
found it to bo ono of the mighty won
ders of the" world. You may descend
at one point five or sijc hundred feet,
thence proceed half a mile on lode rail
ways, and thero take a steam-power pas
sage to the top, in a twinkling. Ifoc&y
