What next ? A loyal train is passing by—

Each face I see, joy beams in every eye
And hope and peaee’round each lip doth

My heart expands, and I boldly ask
What monarch oiaims a more loyal train?
But ere an answer comes, the throng is past

To chose all care and sorrow far away.
And then, those "talk*" that did me good to
hear,—

Of flowers, sweet “sun drops” o’er all nature's
sphere
And the Bible,—with a Heaven to secure.
And yet again! Is it easy to forget

attempted to remain in the Charleston
Cohvention, were forced to leave that

A motion was made to adjourn and
while taking the vote, Mr. Butler, of
Mass., and Mr. Horne, of Wis., object
ed that the delegates present had no
right to cast the whole vote of Georgia,
the latter gentleman maintaining that
Georgia had no right to vote at all,'ex
cept by- unanimous consent, and made
a point bf. order to that effeot. Ho
contended that there was no delegation
present.
Mr. Cohen contended manfully for
e right of himself and colleagues, and
denounced the movement of the above
gentlemen as a usurpation and attempt
to disfranchise the sovereign State of
Georgia.
The. Chair tueUined the point of order,
ruling that the remaining minority had
no right to oast the vote of the State, or
any part of it, as the delegation yri»M in
structed to vote as a unit, and the
Chairman had declared as he left the
hall that no one was authorized to
