Mr. Black indulged in a. general roast of President Cleveland's administration and seemed to show a particularly venomous feeling toward the president for having culled Judge Walter Q. G res ham to bis cabinet. "If Gresham has a due appreciation of the eternal fitnes of things," said the gentleman from Hancock, "he would emulate the example of Judas Iscariot of old. who, after he bad wold the life of the Nazanne for thirty ioor pieces of money, was so disgusted with himself that he went out und hanged himself." This delicate sentiment was received with a regular uproar, during which an enthusiastic delegate from Madison, who tried to "holler," discharged a great mouthful of tobacco Juice on the great foot of a delegate frm Marion, and was called a "d pig" for his carelessness. John B. Wallingford of Madison was then made secretary and business proceeded. Messrs.

Fessler then made a speech in which he, for the most part, dwell on the proportion that the fire ar.d energy of the rc-ivbliean party is concentratetl in the young "men of the party, while the cool conservatism, upon which so much defended, wa to be found among the old men of the party. Ex-Ca4didate for Congress Henry then came forward and mad? a characteristic speech, in which he lauded everything republian and roasted everything democratic. The committee on resolutions then r -ported. The resolution" condemned the Wllon btll.extolled the McKinley bill.
