bill was introduced by Mr. Dawes, author¬
izing the president to proclaim a general

dredth anniversary of the discovery Amer¬
ica, October 12, 1822.
Mr. Oates (as a privileged question) from
the committee on judiciary, reported back

mails aud interstate commerce, aud directs
the committee on judiciary to in¬

FULTON’S CONVENTION.
Tbe Capital County of Georgia Sends a
Cleveland Delegation.
Atlanta, May 16.-The Cleveland
Hill forces met the , basement . of , the .
in
court bouse in a compromise convention,
as per'agreement between the leaders of
each faction, and efforts-were made to
put a ticket in the field. No agreement
however, could be reached, and the par
tisan feeling was as strong in the con
vention as it had ever been manifested
before.
It was evident tha‘ the crowd, which
was large, was largely Cleveland men.
This seemed to rattle the Hill men, who
felt that periiaps their man would be
sacrificed, and when Mr. C. A. Collier
arose and nominated twelve delegates
to the state convention who were known
to be strong Cleveland supporters, and
with the ticket proposed that these del
egates be instructed to cast Fulton
county’s vote for Cleveland, there were
signs of discontent, and it was evident
that the Hill men would not stand the
defeat which seemed to threaten their
candidate.
The question was put, and amidst the
wildest enthusiasm it was carried, and
Fnlton county was declared to be iu the
Cleveland ranks with a solid delegation
