It became evident last night that the factious

PennstYlvante; from the Douglas Executive Com.
mitts., presented to the ;Virginia delegation a re
solution adopted by that eentsolttee, which Virginia
'acesipted and presented to the Contention through
her chairman,' Mr. Hassell; immediately on iN
assembling this morning. By the adoption of the
resolution" the Convention stands adjourned to
meet at Baltimore dn. the 13th of June. There
was an effort made to hold the Convention
datable, and' your city would certainly have been
the place selected had not the studied mierepresen.

received at an early stage of the balloting had it
not been for the withdrawal of so many Southern
States. The effect of this secession upon . the re
rosining States from the South was so great that
they feared to yield lest their people at home should
hold them responsible for surrendering the in.
'tared* of 'their section. The Secessionists, who
were constantly on the door, notilthitariding their
formal withdrawal, , and the other enemies' of
Douglas in the Convention, played upon this fear,

The President., The' froth' Ilifebigair
has raised the point of order that the motion of
the gentleman from Tanneries*. will imagihrte a
&singe of the rule of the Convention, as adopted
at its present session, in aeoordamie with the rule
of the Convention of 1852. The gentleman from
Pennsylvania (Mr. Phillips) objects that it is too
late to make this question of order. As the Chair
entertains a diferent 'opinion upon the question,
he desires to state that opinion. The restitution
of 'the Convention of 1852 Is in substarree, as
the gentleman from Michigan has stated it, that
two-thirds of the whole number of votes elven shall
be necessary to a' nomination of candidates far
President and Vice President. •Now, it:is true
that. in a rigorous construction of this order,
it, applies to a nomination of candidates for
President and Vice President by this Convention.
Thee fee the Chair amours with the gentleman
from Michigan. The Chair is not prepared to de
termine what is the• force of the words "votes
given." A prima facie impression of the words
might be "votes oast" in a ballot in the Conven
tion, but the role does not say so It maw the &b•
solute, independent phrase "votes given." The
gentleman from tiftobigan objects to that construe-
Hon on the ground of alleged Inconvenience, that
of having the nomination oft Convention prevented
by the secession of one-third of the tiblites in that
Convention. The Chair can see that the argument
of Inoonvenienme taimilletentlystrong,ifnotstronger,
upon the other side. A Convention of this tort hes
no legal authority. Its sole authoeity is its morel
authority as theWepresentatiee of the opinionof the
party whose members constitute , ifs party, It
seems to the Chair that the inoonvenienoe of awn
ming that the nominatio n , by a fractional pert of
the Convention, although it may be that of two
thirds, conelltutes a binding nomination upon the
people of the United States. is a vastly greater fa
oonvenienoe than that widish would arise from the

Is it not strange that the chivalrous South raid

Wee, and do not merely bout Of them, they were west

to leave the chair, where he' at miewdly Ander the
indignant glances of every honest man in the Cm
vention, and slunk of to Slidell'[ to And - relief In
his congratulations from the load of infamy Which
he seemed to feel he , was laboring noder. There
fano doubt that bad the Convention refused to elm
tutu this decision, and had Virginia, Ueutuolly,
Tennessee, and North Carolina thereupon with
drawn, that Douglas would have hien nominated
en . the first ballot by receiving over two-thirde of
the votes of those who remained in theConveatien;
but he would then have been only the oandidete
of a section, as Missouri would have been the only
Southern State represented. .
It was, therefore, deOmed but by some of his
friends to retain these States, and, in order to do
so, New York voted to sustain the decision. This
vote Fowler, Buttorirorth, Bigler, Slidell, & tt.,
at once published as the proclamation of an inten
tion on the part of the Now York delegation to. der
Bert Douglas. Had the Convention continued in
session, and bad Judge Dangles at any time re:
eelved two-thirds of the votes cast, the sequel
would have shown that New' York wu 'inti

Judge Douglas when she east this vote; fart she
would then have moved to reoonsider the yeti) by
which the decision was sustained—would have
aided in overruling it, and would herself have pie.

nominee of the Democratic party under the twO ! '

With Richmond and Cogger' at their head" they
will be found voting their thirty.five votes at Bal

Douglas.
The friends of Douglas hut 'a wily end unmet.

is unnecessary for me to allude to the head schemer

Mr. SHERMAN, of Ohio, said the not of 1857 was
