They are Properly Saubbed by the * Convention. After our report closed yesterday, Mr. A. G. Hall banded in resolutions left by Mr. C. M. Barton, returning the thanks of the republican party to Congress for the passage of the terri- torial bill; heartily approving the appointment by the President of Governor, Secretary aud Board of Public Works, which were so promptly coutirmed by the Senate; giving unqualitied seppert to the new form of government. all its various functions, and announcing an ¢ deavor to heal all dissensions in the party, nominate and elect a faithful republican as egate to Congress. The secretary had read to the second resolu- tion, ENDORSING THE BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS, when Mr. Allen Coffin excitedly objected to the further reading, declaring that under a reaolu- tion ail resolutions should de reterred to @ com- itiee withont reading. Judge Fisuer said he understood the resolu- ‘lon referred to cat of debate, bat not the reading. ‘Aiter #0 ‘on, the resolution requiring reference of all resolutions was amended 9 as to prevent the reading of resolutions until re- ported by the comz The resolutionsof Mr. Barton—inclading two leclaring that, ae soon as practicable atter the ‘mation of the districts tor the Legislative A-sembly, the republican electors shail meet iu th spective districts for the purpose of a and'date for the Legislative As- sembly and appoint a local execative commit- tee of three im each district to serve for one i that the chairmen of these executive es, twenty -.wo im number, shall con- e & general executive committee, with au- thority to call a general delegate convencion of the republicans of the District of Columbia tor the pa{ of pery me | a candidate for dele- gate to Congress nnd the formation of a cant: executive committee, to consist of eleven mem- bers, one from each Council district, for the entire Territory—were referred.

Some debate followed, during which the com- mittee to wait on the Governor and Secretary of State returned, and through W. A. Cook reported they bad been unable to find Governor Cooke, but they had the pleasure of reporting that Mr. Chipman was present, who was, in his W. &. Cook's) opinion, “TRE BEST MAN OF THE CROWD.” Judge Fisher introduced General Chipman as & gallant soldier during the late war, who would cll bis position with credit; and he was received with prolonged cheering. SPRECE OF GENERAL CRIPMAN. General Chipman returned his thanks for the flattering ovation paid him, ef which any man should teel proud. He was glad to at- tend the convention by invitation, tor by it they recognized him as a republican, and he hoped that it would be @ very late day in hi« lite when his repubdlicanisu: would be cailed in question. ‘ged that as the intluence of thc voters of the District is feit thréughout the country, it was their duty to be united—let there be no more Emery men, no more Bowen men, but the republican patty. {Applause.] He could not say iuch in reference to the new government, for it might not be perfect, but tuey should make the best of it until it was found where it could be improved, and then go to Congress and ask amendment of the act.
