Gen. CMCIOII offered a resolution for the eclair.iiion-of a Revcilntitinery soldier from Pennsylvania,
and another member proposed to .amend, so as to in
clude all Revolutionary soldiers, which amendment
Mr. Cameron accepted, as a modification of his.
The resolution of Mr. Cameron was adopted.
Mr. Diggs, of North Carolina, proposed a pream-
file and resolution, that whereas there are two seta of;
delegates from Now York present, both claiming to
he the delegates ofthat State; and whereas, great dif-
Acuity exists in determining tho claims of these two ,
sets—therefore, resolved, that both he admitted to I
scats on this floor, and to participate in the proceed,-
ings of this convention. This resolution was declar
ed not to he in order; and the convention proceeded 1
to the consideration of the special order, being the
case or the contenting delegates from New York. I
Mr. Yancey, having obtained the floor, offered a
resolution, j
that as the convention had beard the ar-
gumonts of the respeotive- - delegaLo ns from New i
Yorki, the members appointed by the Syracuse and 1
Albany State Conventious, be adniiited as the regu
larly constituted delegates to acute as members of
this Convention.
The clinic decided the resolution not to he now in
orderi and Mr. Ynncey then moved that the report of,
the committee nn credentials in ihis ease, and the I
ateendment thereto, be taken up for consideration, j
which prevailed, and Mr. Y. proceeded to ad -1
rotate the adoption of the report, for the reason that
the argument's of the harnlitirner delegates had satin.
fled him that upon the Ellb.fC,t of slavery they did not
represent the doctrines of the democratic party. At
the conclusion nfhis remarks he withdrew the amend
ment*Which ho had yesterday offered to Mr. Tour
i cey'a resolution, subitituting in lieu thereof the
above, and moved the previous question.
After a few remarks from sir.' Howard, the con
vention adjourned to 5 o'clock, P. M.
• [On the conclusion or Mr: 'ratters speech, and
motion for the previous question,great excitement
and confusion arose in the Convention, which the
President promptly interposed to arrest. lie rose
and addressed the Convention for acme mements.--r.
He ca
ic lled uon eni in the strongest and most em•
p i per mann p er t o pronerro the order and decorum
of the body, He nppealed to the individual mem
bers of the Convention, and urged them as the re-
I resentatives of the whole Democracy of the Union,
as American citizens .and gentlemen, to preserve or
' dor and dignity in their deliberations.
The eyes of the i; We nation werenow filed open
them, and it was due to themselves, and to their
country and its glorious inatitutiona, that peace and
harmony, order, decorum and dignity, should char
acterize the proceedirigs of this important assembly.
He called upon the Convention to aid bim in preserv
ing order and decorum in its proceedings.
This address had the happen effect; the whole
house became immediately still and orderly, and ad
journed until five o'clock; every member retaining
his scat until the adjournment was pronounced.--
Most of the members or the Convention seemed
highly gratified at the course of their President, and
were seen surrounding and shaking him by the hand,
and congratulating him on the happy effect of his
interposition. It is to be hoped that it mayproduce
gr od, and Contribute to allay excitement and dis
order.]

beg leave to remark ? that I have received from the
(resident of the United States a letter containing
one which I am authorized, MI the occurrence of a
contingency therein referred to, to communiente to
this body. Prom conversation with gentlemen, it
appears to me that that contingency has now arisen,
in which the views or true position of the President
'hod be"made known to the convention ; end as I
or no better mode of effecting that, I hand to
the President the letter to which I have alluded,!
will; a request that - it shall be read.
The letter was then read, and le as follows:
WATUINGTON Ctrl, May 20, 1549.
Paiilt Slat From speculation•which have appear
sal in some of the public Journals, and from frequent
linguine* which have been mule of me, by many po
lineal friends, some of thena delegates to the Demo
cratic National Convention which will assemble at
Baltimore on the 22d instant, I am induced to sup.
pose that it may be the desire of some of qty friend*
to propose my re-nomination, u the candidate of
the democratic party fur the office or President of
the United States.
Should youriscertain that such is the intention of ,
any of the delegates, I desire through you to com
municate to the convention that I am not a candi
date for the nomination; and that any use of my
name with that view, which may be contemplated,
is without any agency or desire un my part.
The purposes declared in my letter of the 12th of
June, 1844, in accepting the nomination tendered
to me by the Democratic National Convention aunt
year, remain unchanged; and to relieee the Con
venison from any possible embarrassment which the
suggestion of my time might produce, in "making
a ireer selection of • successor, who may be
calculated to give effectto their will and guardbeet
all
the interests of our beloved country,"i deem it pro
per to reiterate the sentiments contained in that let.
ter. Since my election, -1 have often raptor/red a
sincere desire, whi eh Istill feel, to retire to private
-life at the close ofthe present term.
. I entertain the confident hope and belief that my
democratic friends of the Convention will unite in a
harmonious nomination of some citizen to succeed
me,*whn, ifelected, will finely maintain and carry
out the great political principles embodied in the..
resolutionsadopted by the Democratic National
Convention of 1844 —printiples which it has been
the earnest endeavor and the constant aim of my
administration to preserve and pursue; and upon the
observance of which, in my opinion, mainly depend
the prosperity and perineum welfare of our coun
try.
If, en reviewing the history ()rely adtninistration,
and the remarkable events, foreign and dome■tic,
which have attended it, it.shall be the judgment of
my countrymen that 1 have adhered to these princi•
plea, and faithfully performed my duty, the measure
ofmy ambition is full, and I am amply compensated
for all the labors, cares and, anxieties which aro in•
separable from the high station which I have been
called to fill. '
I shall ever cherish sentiments of deep gratitude
to my fellow citizens, for the contldenoe they reposed
in me, in electing me to the most distinguished and
responsible trust on earth.
It is scarcely necessary that I should add, that
it will be no less my duty than my sincere pleasure,
as a citizen, to unite with my democratic friends la
the support of the nominees of the convention for
the offices of President and Vice President of the
United States.
