The Convention, on motion of Don. Johu

sUinidstthe wildest excitement, and th most
Lpterons cheering.
Scene and Incidents.
After Mr. Cowan bad submitted the report of
the Committee on Resolutions and Address,
one ot the Pennsylvania delegates proposed
three cheers in his behalf. Tho request was
jcreded to hy the whole Convention. Mr.
Cowan appeared And bowed his thanks, and tn
jLroduced, as the reader of the authorized ad
dress, Hon. Henry J. Raymond, of New York.
On commencinp'.hi delivery, the sentiments of
the address again excited the audience to re
doubled applause, until there wa3 a suggestion
Irom the cuair to repress ttieir feelings, as the
interruptions cousun.ed tinip, after which per
fect quiet prevailed.
Mr. Raymond, tnough his voice is not a full
nd round one, has nevertheless a line and
perspicuous dellveiy, and ho absorbed t'ae atten
tion of the whole Convention during his
;reading. There was a disturbance In the north
east part of the gallery, caiuDd bv spectators
coming in and going out, and compelled the
speaker to coae till it was repressed by a com
mand from tho Cluiir
Conspicuous among those immediately in
Iront ot the chair were to be seen tho lrrepres
nible Train, Ceversly Johnson, and Governor
Orr, of South Carolina.
Towarus the conclusion of the address a para
fjrapb reterring to tbeoutu was of so excitiuar
uclacior thai the delegates rose to their teet
oouvtMslveiy, aud gave vent to their iuelmers in
Joud and prolonged cheeiins. The para?rapU
was called npun to b.i repeated, and at the repe
tition the cheering was rst'.o.tbled. and the flash
ing eyes and excited looks find ,p,3siures of the
tatemen. politician, und eitizens aspernbled
m this griav Wig ivum were of incomparable in-
Sttniw and Jiirldfiit Hit thej, Appeared
lo AuiilUir Iteporter.
What we wrote yesterday recardins the ap-
peurauoeof thinirs inside the Wijwatn appJls
with equt force to-day, and with lew addijtlon.
The larue jtructure was crowded in every part.
ft becoming .known that the resolutions and the
address f tbe Convention would be rend, roat
interest was maciiested to he ir these docutncnU
read.
The stillness ttiat prrvaded the vast assem
blage while the address was bei read was per
fectly wondenul. One mlpbt readily suppose
that he was In a church during the delivery ot ft
sermon, ro deep was the silence. When, how
ever, Mr. Raymond, who read the addres, had
taken hie seat after the arduous tiwk assigned
him, the entire audience rose to their' feet, and
the cheering wu lonjr continued and most
enthusiastic. At the conclusion of the reading
oi the address, Senator PooliUle, ttn Chairman,
announced that Mr. Rajmond would read the
last clause over aeain. This cla-ise alluded to
the wroners desired to be inflicted by the radicals
on tbe South, and treat anplaase erected the
sentiments expressed.
The resolutions, as read by the clerk, Mr.
Terrin, were frequently interrupted witn the
most vociferous chcrs. That portion of the
resolutions which advocated a perfect and un
impaired Union "broupht do-vn the house."
When the rcolation was read iudorsiw; the
laws of the United States as the supreme law of
the land, tho applause was great.
Tbe same may be sa;d of that portion
of the resolutions reuardinc; Sure ris;h'.,
and the qualification of the voters in the
different States. Tqm sentiment that no State
had a right to wlthdra from tbe Uuiou met
with a torrent of entnuslosm, and one evened
delegate eavc a number of cheers on hisovn
hook, otter every body eise was quiet.
The resolutions recording the perpetual
Ubion of the States, the provisions lor amend
ments lor the Constitution, that all the States
have a rhzht to have a volee regarding the
amendments, were preatly applauded; also, that
the war debt is sacred, and that the national
Government shall rniaiu unimpaired.
The resolution tha. all tbe rights of th sailors
and soldiers who fought during vhe Rebellion
f-bould be observed and defended, and that
proper provisions should be made for the main
tenance ol the widows and orphans caused by
the war, was received with great enthusiasm.
The resolution endorsing President John-on
brought the entire Convention to their feet, and
several minutes elapsed before the aoplause
subsided.
The resolutions were unanimously adopted
amid much excitmenc.
At the conclusion of the reading of the resolu
tions three elvers were given for Senator Co van,
of Pennsylvania.
Senator Cowan acknowledged the compliment
in a few words.

FINANCE AND COMMERCE:.
Oi ncn of iue Evening TnLF.aiupn, (
Thursday, August 16, i860. (
Tlie Gold Market opened strong this moruine,
and tbe closing rate this atternoou is 1ol:.
The firmness in the premium is attributed to
the influence of the European iica's. indicating
further political complication, and perhaps war
between Prussia and Trance. The borrowing
demand is active, and a laro and short interest
is sai l to lie out. It, is araaed that the price
ol gold cannot decline until ih'! supply on the
market is increased by tdupmen'e of gold from
Europe or by sale of tlint in the Trea&ury De
partment an event, it is to be hoped, not likely
to take place.
Under the influence of the no'ice from the
Secretary of tbe Treasury (printed in yesterday's
Telegraph) that the temporary deposits ot the
Government would be paid on or betore Aug. 20,
and that interest thereon would cease alter that
date, tbe stock market was very buoyant this
morning. Government bonds continued to ud
vauce. By tbe new order ot the Secretary of
the Trensury the sum of 509,000,000 will be
thrown upon the market in search of employ
ment, and must materially influence the prices
of Government and other securities, and also the
rates for loans.

Tbls mornintr our fmtit repaired to tbe
residence of 15. .1. Arundetq,, No. fi.'.V North
Broad street, for the ptinhwo ot having an in
terview with the late VfVi-Yresident of tie Coo
tedeme States, Hon. AVx.mder II. StcpUci,i! of
Ceortrla. Sir. Stephen left his borne l Ct
lotdsvillc, Ceonttia, a short timer ainVo. ani
without makins auy stoppngro, excppt ttM
nccssary chango oi cars, proceeded direet to
Wa-hlngton.
Arriving there, taeod a short Intervie w wltll
President Johnson, and leil Washiuifton yester
day morning at lcve u o'clock for PhiladelpHia,
where ho arrived lat eveninsr, about six o'ekoe.
Th" arrival of Sir. Stephens was known to bat
very few, and a few select frlcuds met hiw at
lie depot. Broad and Pritno streets, anl en
rol ted him in n enrriago to th rcsidcuee above
mentioned.
Mr. Stephens wai gre.it ly exhausted on fcia
arrival Mr. Arundel's residence, aud retires!
early to bed, iu order, if possible, to pain suffl
dent strength to visit tlie Convention tuw
moraine.
During the night, however, the ex-Vice Preed.
dent was sUcd with a severe attack of diaa rnoja,
and woke up this morning greatly cnfcoblod, so
much so in iacl that it mas not deemed ndvlaa
ble for hitn to leave the bouse.
In answer to qtioptious proposed bvoaf re
porter, Mr. Stephens stated that be came tor
the purpose of attending the Convention, but
niter nrrlvlntr. doubted the advisability or
makiug his appeatnnce at the Wigwam, li s
main objection appeared to be, tnis moinirur.
that his health was in such an enfeebled state
that he could do nothing more toau b a
"looker-on In Venice," should he make his
appearance, and lie stated that bo feared bino
called on to make a jpecch, which he di.I not
feel able to do.
He paid that whatever he might say while in
this citv would be comprised in a very e
words, and intimated tnat he miarlit civc evr.rea-
slun to those words before the people ero be
departed for his home.
Mr. Stephens was called upon this uiorniiis by
the Georgia deleguliua to the Convention, add
he received all viiiors with as niucn cordiality
ns his pool physical condition would permit.
He stated that he thought ho would renuln in
Philadelphia durinir the remainder of tne wee.
when he would return home, via Washington.
Appeiiiiiiiee of Mr. Stephen.
.Mr. Stephens is a rennrkably singular looking
mini. Any person who has seen a Mkcnosi of
him would readily recognize him. His leutures
aro very inarked. He is remarkably diminutive
in stature, and while stnndin? beivls forward
and slightly ricmble.-, as though the exertion
of t inding on his feet was too much t'or hi
JL,''.'fi'V"t'-
lie has a dark, piercim;, tieep-set eye, the mo it
-trikiiiii feature in his lace. His complexion ia
very 'allow, and his skin not very clear. Ue
has a very cadaverous look, and has evidently
inulersone n great deal of sickness. He was
dressed this morning in a full suit of black;
dtefs.coat and nirue turn-over collar, mil stra-
sdintr black cravat. He is a man that once aeon
would not easily be foraotton. There it? something
remarkably striking and peculiar m tlio e-
prcsion of hi face, and he appears to bo all
intellect, with a very limited modicum ot pliysi
Ciil development. Mr. Stephens expressed hitn
scll greally .loased with the uohon of the Con
vention, and crave utterance to hopes that mucn
rrood would result from it? deliberation.
The speaker's stand this nioriiins received the
additional decoration of an American ea7le,
suspended directly oer i', holding in her taVous
two silk American flags.
Tbe attendance of bulieT ibis niorntntr was
unusually lnr.se, and they watched the proceed
inas with the grentct interest.
The Convention, with good taste, pnssed a
resolution tbankinir Mayor McMichael for th
cxcelleut police arrangements, through which
cilicient aid all co;. fusion was avoided, and any
thing like a disturbance nipped in tbe bud.
The passage of the resolution was unanimous,
and was greeted with great applause. We may
here remark that a very tdrong pollco for was
on duty out-ide tho Wig wain, and they were
placed like sentinels nf, convenient distances, at
different points ill tlie Interior.
The motion for n final adjournment was made
by Mr. John llogan, of Missouri, after which.
Mr. Robert J. Holmos, of New York, proposed
the thanks of the Convention to the members
of tlio Tress for their truthful reports, whica
was unanimously adopted.
The thanks of the Convention were voted to
the officers of the same, and also to the ci liens'
of Philadelphia for their kindness to the mem
bers ol the Convention. The latter motion was
made by Mr. James C. Rollins of Missouri.
A delegate from Ma-sncbiisctts Mr. Algrer
moved an amendment to Mr. Hognn's motion,
to the effect that when this Convention adjourn
they do so with three cheers for the Union and
the Constitution of ot r f.uhora.and tn? President
ot the United States, Andrew Johnson. Unani
mously agreed to.
The President, after thanking the Convention
for their kindness and courtesy to himself, then
Dually Introduced tho Rev. Mr. Elliot, who pro
nounced the parting benediction In a few well-chot-en
and fervent words. A deathlike stillneas
prevailed during the oenediotion. when tbe Con
vention rose to its feet and gave nine heart
cheers, and then quietly dispersed.
