The harmony of your proceedings has been remarkable. Not a single division has been called during your sitting either in Caucus or Con. vention. This has rendered my duties as easy as the cause ol it has been gratifying to me. I congratulate you, gentlemen, especially upon your selection of a standard-bearer. Thomas Bragg is not unknown to the country a high minded honorable gentleman a wise and able statesman a sound and reliable Democrat. You may well be proud of such a leader, and he, I douttt not, will find in you active and zeulous coadjuters. Under the lead of such a champion you have nothing to fear 1 he very name of BRAGC is a tower of strength, and if in the hottest of the fight you should begin for a moment to doubt nf success, you have only to call upon the gallant Brago for "a little more grape" and the vicTony is OVM. You have been harmonious here and I trust it is an augury of harmony every here ; united in the great r.lj-ct which we nil have at heart the success-of great Democratic principles let us not quarrel about minor matters. If in these we can not agree, hi us at least agree to disagree. Wishing for each of you a safe return to the bosoms of your families, and the welcome plaudits of many gratifii d friends, 1 pronounce this Con vention adjourned sine dir. ABRAHAM RBNCHER, President.
