Prioe Bu Oirtb per ooyy in strong wreteert, and ■Urn p*4, read r for mailing, - This taper is tnblUhed azprsMlr for < CALIFORNIA CIRCULATION, And oostaini a complete summary of irhat has brans firs* in onr City, State ■ and the Atiantio States, sinoe Ike departure of the last steamer for California, Punch Pictures. The eurrent number of Punch has a capital whole-page Illustration. It represents Master Gladstohe (Chancellor, of the Exchequer) elevated upon the dunce’s stool, garmented in a bib, and screwing hts knuckle into his eye, in a lachrymose manner, while Lord Derby, wearing his Inevitable spectacles and his Earl’s .coronet, pots upon the' head'of the naughty boy a fool’s-cap marked «.Repeal Paper Duty,” which Lord D.’has prevented. ' The: common sense of the Lords not re ducing the Paper Dnty, because they be lieved that the Revenue of 1860-61 was insuf ficient to cover the year’s expenditure, has just been demonstrated by the fact that the British Ministry deipand a trifle oi $2,600,000 towards the expenses of the war with China. The illustrious “ Brother of the Sun and Moon,” who declares that Europeans and Americans are equally « outside barbarians,” declines all offers of accommodation with Eng land, and appears inclined, like Palafox, to declare “War to the Knife.” This new,war with China will be rather more than a tempest in a teapot, and will probably be a heavy tax npon the patience and pockets of John Ball, As for the paper question, it may safely ha assumed that there is an end of it. The Com mons declared that the duty upon paper, amounting to three cents a pound, should be repealed. The Lords, believing that the money conld not be spared, under existing and expected circumstances, simply declared “we will not repeal this tax.” If the Commons have the right to impose or repeal a tax, the Lords have an equal right to confirm or to re ject It. Pretended “London Correspondents,” in various American papers, repeat the cuckoo note of Brioht and Company, that the Lords reftue to repeal the paper tax, from a desire to prevent the establishment of a, cheap press in London. These wiseacres, writers on this side of-the water, evidently are ignorant of the fact that, for the three last years, there have been three first-class daily papers* in London, price two cents a copy, namely, Tht Telegraph, the tforning Star, and the Evening Standard. The Repeal of the Paper Duty would scarcely eventuate in the establishment of a fourth cheap daily journal in London. The Chinese war will probably causa an out lay of many millions sterling in the next twelve months over and above the Government esti mates of 1860. Were the truth known, Mr. Finance-Minister Gladstohe most be sincerely indebted to Lord Debbt and the Peers for not reducing $7,600,000 of paper taxation. Oi conrse, all this is unintelligible to “special correspondents,” who date where and whence yon please, but generally write their letters in sky-parlors in New Yrirk and Philadelphia. They only look darkly through such a glass as the English press holds up. Independence* of Sicily. We have European news to the 7th of this month. There are only tw* noticeable points in it: First, that Lord Jobe Russell in tended to .carry the Reform Bill this session— even while confessing that' Scotland and Ire land must now he. wholly left oht of the pro gramme ! and, next, that Sicily is all but snb jected to the power of Garibaldi. As for the Reform BUI, we said, six months ago, that, like pie-crnst and ladies’promises, jt was made only to be broken. Bnt the case' of Sicily is far different, and much better. The last accounts represent Gaeibaxbi in possession of the greater part of Palermo— the Neapolitan troops feebly holding out, some of them with the Sicilians, boldly join log Garibaldi's army, the Clergy preaching against the Neapolitan rule,, and the . army of the Bourbon tyrant submitting, at last, to be deported back to Naples. At aU events, Garibaldi holds his own. In all probability, long ere this meets the eye, Neapolitan role will have been' wholly beaten down in Sicily.

WXMSLOW’S MIHOMTY REPOST PROM THE Mr. Winslow, Of North Caroline, made the minority report from the OoVode Committee this afternoon. It is stated and believed that the Pre sident was engaged all day yesterday, Sunday at tt mu, In company with Judge Black, end other members of the Cabinet, in preparing materials lor Mr. Wimslow. The President Is excessively in dignant at certain of the revelations of tho Covode’ Committee, end Is especially violent against Governor Walkbr; Mr.' Wxrdhll, Colonel Forest, end others, and Mr. Wing dow has mads every effort to. relieve him of the odium that attache* to himsolf and his Admin lstration In consequence of these revelations. Col. Fobrit Is to be attacked- on account of his speech at Coyle's, on the evening of his election as Clerk', in February lest, end an effort is to be made'to Invalidate his testimony. At this work Blade will do his, best, and thereby earn new claims to the consideration of the President. Mr. Winslow has certainly, assumed a greet burden in attempting to pallia to the established corruption! of the Ad ministration, and In putting himself forward to at tack those, who have fastened this shame upon the Administration. All Southern men will be swept into utter obscurity in the effort to show that the President was not guilty of what has now been proved upon Mm. lam surprised • that he should allow himself to become the apologist of the Administration on tho Covode Committee. FROM BALTIMORE. DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION, irUIM DISPATCH! to « THE PRESS,*’ Tho oity is crowded with strangersthe morning trains from Philadelphia ware oversowing with passengers, many of. whom oemo by the way of your city from New York end tho South. Tho Keyitone Club of Philadelphia, to the number of a hundred end 6%, heeded by W*. MoOaedlbss, president, end W». Btbxly, the marshal, arrived this morning. The train on which the olub ar rived was detained beyond the usual time, end when fhe prooesrion, headed by a banner end a bend of music, eotuiibnnarohsd around the mono-; mani la Monument Square It was broad day-light. The Keystone boys swear by Dodslas, and era dis persed over the hotels endeavoring to make cap!-, tel for the gallant Bdnetor from Illinois. They have taken their qnirters at the Fonntein House, and the flint thing they did was to stretoh a large flag across Light street bearing the name of th|ir’ organisation. On the way down last night a'voto was taken on tho train m to the special predilec tions of the passengers on the Presidential ques tion. Two hnndnd and tbirty-one votes were oast with thU result: Douslas 178, Lircclh Jl, Brll 18, Diokihsor 6, Guthrie 4, Breckinridge 8, and Bugharah 1. The lone-star Buchenenito was a poatmaster from an interior town In Pennsylvania. THE WOSKIRQ OF THE WIRES. Of course, with the results tolsgnpbsd you in the proceedings of tho Convention, any specula tions or hotel gossip would bo of no Interest. The Donglasmenare Arm, unflinching, and determined that their colors shall be nailed to the mast. Tho hotels and highways are vocal with the name of Douslas. Seme of hi* Pennsylvania devotees in the hotels this morning wore offering to hot extra vagant odds oh their favorite, and, as a singular contrast to tha excitement, almost within the sound of these comments, a bevy of Southerners might he noticed in angry denunciation of the Illinois Benator, and threatening all manner of pains and penalties as a consequence of his nomination. Bo far as the question of numbers la concerned, the Douglas men ere largely in the ascendant- The. Northwest is represented hero by an immense orowd, consisting of delegations from 'minds, In diana, Minnesota, Ohio, and other of the Western States. *hb raSLiita akoko in outside dxixqatxb, and particularly among the spectators in the gal leries of the theatre, is unequivocally -for Doumas. Thus, when Mr. Howabd, of Tenneweo, made a motion to admit tho seoeders, he was greeted with a storm of hisses, which was changed into loud cheers when Mr. Oavabaoh, of Minnesota, Wed to lay the motion on tho table. Bor these demon strations, the galleries were lengthily and violently scolded by Mr. Ousanto. The amend ment of Mr. Chuboh superseded that of Hr. Oa v- ABASH, and was regarded as a test vote as to the strength of the extreme Douglas men.- Mr.Jhstn ntr 8 tripped up this movement by an ingenious point of order, which was sustained by the Chair. This lad to an hour of technical sparring, Which was dlvenrlfled by a passage of arms between the president and Joan Oocmabx, in which the pre sident got the better of the gentleman from New. York. The threat of Mr. Hussain, of Virginia, that the u silence of Virginia would be ominous,” was greeted with hisses In the galleries, mpigled with applause. The Minnesota episode, a olronle family quarrel, was introduced, debated; and dually temporarily compromised. The result on the motion to adjourn—73l ayes to 1781 nay.—can be hardly considered a test rote, as many of the Southern antl-Douglas States voted in the nogs tive. TBE JOIIOE AEBAMOEKEHTS of the Convention are admirably managed; every thing being under the strictest disolpllne. The crowd Is quite large, although the enthusiasm has not reached fever heat. In nearly every hotel there Is a band-hf xnusio, and wherever yon go in the neighborhood of Monument Square' crowds of angry politicians may be seen in earnest; angry, and exciting debete. j MEW TOBK 3ACKIMO WATXE. . ' On the motion to second tho previous question ou the resolution of Hr., Onunon, of New York, the New York delegation asked leave to retire. They returned in e body and voted In the nega tive. This created some surprise among the friends of Judge' Doualas, who begin tosnspaot treachery. I am informed, however, that while Now-York, for prudential motives, joins with the South in these preliminary baUotlngs, yet she still remains Arm to tha Little Giant of Illinois. I think will be something like this : The Doug las men will insist upon a vote open the resolution of Mr, Chuboh requiring every delegate to sup port tho nomineo. In Iho event of Us adoption a portion of the Virginia delegation will retire, while the seceding delegations will make no effort to ob tain entrance. The remaining delegates'will no minate DouoiAs, while the seoeders wilt go, to BichmSnd and put up Jnry Davis. This I give' as tha opinion of one of the most eminent friends of Jndgo Dousias In tha Convention. Tho rumor that Jon Labe, of Oregon, had de clined in, favor of Dousias Is treated by the friends of both parties as a canard. They say Jon would like to do this, considering that he wonld riin. no rink by doing so, but that ,t. B. won’t ,Ist him.

The Front-street Theatre Is very oommodiously adapted to the purposes of tho Convention. The perqnetto has been boarded over. Tho delegations fhlly occupy It, end extend halfway np the stage, spreading thereon on both aides. The President’s seat Is on sn elevation at tbe baok of the stege- Boenes and drapery judiciously placed srennd pro duce a pleasant effect. The stars end stripes are greoefully festooned around ; end in the rear of the'President’s ohelr, the national flag being hiug in en aloSVe, the light streams through It as a transparency, and is oheerfully enlivening, as well as suggestive. REPRESENTATIVES OP THE PRESS. There ere at least fifty representatives of the press from various parts of the oonntry. Of tha Philadel phia journals, Mr. G. W. L. Johnston represents the Inquirer; Casper Bounin, Jr., the Evening Bulletin; L. M. Chastraui.the Daily News. Hiinlkih, of the State Sentinel; and Davis, of tho Doylestown Democrat, are among tho Penn sylvania press-men here. Of the New York papers the Timet la looked after by 0. G. Halpirr ; the Tribune byj. g. Plxn; the Herald byj. Mo- Olerahar ; the Express by James Brooks. Of tile Boston men'l notion Bailt, of the Htrald. From Washington Browre, of tho Constitution, and Wallace, of the Star, are visible. The Bal timore press, of rfourse, has ell their forces present, end Mr. Fulton attends to the interests of tha As sociated Press. Wires have been Introduced into tha theatre, and the operator of the House line is kept is busy as “ a hen on s hot griddle.” THE lIBST OCR. Hon. Jahbs M. Cavaxaubh, the earnest and gallant delegate from Minnesota, fired the first gun by bis motion to lay the resolution of Mr. Hovann,' of Tennessee—for the issuance of tiok ate according to the original organisation at Oharleetoni-on the table, and called for the pre vious , gueetion', on the motion to reoonaider. A storm of applause swept from floor to ceiling as he took his seat. It was followed by some sharp shooting; and the amendment introduced by Mr. How York, gave a fresh Unpetal of an tagonism to Howabd’s propoaltioa.— The tenor of Onuion’a amendment oonfinns the stated purpose of the Douglas leaders. Mr. Baulsbubt, of Delaware, regarded -the amendment as a dictation to the whole Convention, and as taming orders upon the delegates which their States had not done. The majority,-how ever, think differently from him; and regard the amendment, or smoothing tantamount to it, as being the bast and wisest guarantee’for the union of the Democratic party In the approaohing oan vase. Mr. SAbLsaonv, however, was etogniarly obtroiivoand incoherent. The 'notion of the Now York delegation Is thought lntrplioahle, and is tho subjsot of mush oonunenk After CHtmoa’s amendment having emanated from it, and tho previone qnoetion had been demanded by its proposer, l ' the delegation, in • body, went agataet a'vote on it at this tana. The reaeon'alleged Is, that'one of the Virginia dele getlon (Mr. Rdssblu) having been oalled to order, that gentleman beggod to' remind the Convention that whan Virginia was client it was an ominous sign. In oonseqnencs of this Virginia got mad, and New York thought it better not to orowd tho Old Dominion, but allow It to discuss the amend ment. This view is thought, by some, to hava been wise and eourteous, for the same reason that others deem it a symptom of tho unreliability of the New Yorkere—to wit: that tha amendment emanated from them, and ought to moot any rea eonablo dtoonasion. GENERAL GUSHING, General Cushing's opening speech was a fair statement' el the stages at whieh the various branches of the business were left at Charleston* His announoement that tho motion to reopnsider the rote on the platform as amended had not boon put at Charleston is very important. It may bring up the subject of the Tennessee resolutions—as it no doubt will. General Cushing denied that he made the decision, that two-thirds of the sitting members of the Convention, or a number equivalent to two-thirds of the Bleotoral College,was-necessary to a nomination. He emphatically disclaimed the report as erroneous. It was the Convention that deolded for him- There seems to be general satis faction with the President’s action to-day. OUBHINQ CUSHIONS JOHN COCHRANE, A very politely spicy tilt took place between General Gushing and Mr. John Ooohban* during the discussion of points of order. Cochbahi made one of his most angelic appeals for order, when CusHiNa reprimanded him as being the only one out of order. The laugh being turned against the , eloquent New Yorker, he winced a little, but came up with a tongue more silvery than before; but silver tongue oouldnot prevail against the iren rule of the presiding officer. SENATOR JOHNfTON, 0* TENNESSEE, WITHDRAWS. General Sakuhl Milligan, of the Tennessee delegation, received a letter from Governor An dr«w Johnson this morning, withdrawing his name from any eonneotion with Presidential aspi rations before the Baltimore Convention. ' The tone of the letter is good, and its importance de rives additional value from the known fact that Governor Johnson is in favor of the domination of Stiphbb A. Douglas.

[j>SIPATO9SS TO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.] Baltimobßi Jane 18.—The DemocratiojiafatfnAl con vention Mumbled at the Front-street Theatre, at 10 o’clock this mormog. in pursuance of the resolution of adjournment adopted at Charleston. The stage was thrown baok to »ta utmost extents and platforms were erected aeon it for the President end Vioe Presidents.with alow platform in front forth* secretaries and reporters. . ..... ■ The pArqaette wo# boarde.d over so as to be level with ttaatue, Thb .low** hoies.were.teUtved for ladies, ana the two upper tiers for the aeneial 1 public, admis sion being gained only by tickets. l„ • ■ The theatre vu not entirely filled at the morning session, but presented a handsome appearance, The usual bareness of the sides and roof of the stage was concealed by the liberal drapery of flag*. The stage and parquette m Front ol the platform were reserved for the delegates and the seats were well filled. , . , Bome of the seats having become vacant, the Presi dent decided not to pass upon the right of the new dele gates to seats, not having issued tloketa to those States unrepresented at the adjournment of the Charleston Convention. At II o'clock the President oalled the Convention to order. The proceedings were opened with prayer by the Rev. John MqCron. an Episcopal minister of Baltimore. On oalling tue Convention to order. . . Mr. Cushing, the President, stated that the hour of Seetm* agreed upon at the adjournment had passed; it as it was understood that a misunderstanding had Sotitred as to the hour of meeting, some supposing it be at florin to-day, instead of 10 o’clock, he would direct tHO roll df States to be ealled, in orderto ascertain ff all were prds&at. <•' , The roll was then called. i JUI the delegate* entitled to seats Were found to be present, except & ponton of .the delegations from Penn sylvania, Conneotiotit. and Delaware. ..Senator Saolsbnry, of Delaware, stated that some of the delegates from that Btate yrere present, but had not admission delivered to them, and were \jhair stated that tickets had been delivered to the .sergeant-at-Arms to hand to the ohairmenof the respective delegations. He supposed Drat this had been done in every instance, since all the delegations were represented on the floor who had been represented at Charleston, at the time ofaajournaeot. Mr. Saulsbnry moved that all the members of the Charleston Convehtion be admitted to the floor by the President.' , - - The President. The Convention has not yet been re gularly called to order, and no motion is yet in order. ■ Mr. Pennington. of Delaware, said that the motion of bis oolieasue bad not been properly understood. He desired only the admission of those delegates who were Bresent8 resent at the adjournment of the Charleston Conven or Mr. McCook, of Ohio, asked if the chairman of the delegation bad reoeived the number of tiokets to whioh hewn* entitled. Mr.Saulsbuiy said the majority of the Delaware dele gation had remained in the Charleston Convention, and resolved to stay as long as honor and. good faith controlled the notion of the Convention. [Applause He said ho had no sympathy with the quarrels of his delegation, but he desired only to know where his colleagues were to apply for admission. He had only arrived in town early this morning, and found a difficulty S raising any information. .The president said that e difficulty appeared to be simply In the foot that the deleeationhed not arrived until fato to-day, and were ignorant of the fact that notion wm given yesterday where the ohairmenof the delegations were to receive tiokets of admission >ll entitled to seats would be supplied with tiokets by the serge ant-at’arms. / Mr. Howard, of 'J'enneeeee, desired to offer a resolu tion whioh would settle the question as to all tbs seats in the Convention. ■Mr. Ludlow, of Now York, raised the point of order that the Convention was npfc yet regularly convened. The President {molded the point well taken When it wa* ascertained what delegations were present, the Conventionwodld.be formally convened, and amotion would then be sustained. The roll-call being completed, and the abient dele gates having appeared and tnkf n their seats, tbs Con vention was formally oalled to order, and an opening praver delivered. tJMr. Cushing then addressed the Convention as follows: SPEECH OF PRESIDENT CUSHING. Gentlemen of the Convention ; Permit me. in the firs plaoe. to congratulate you upon your being reassemble: here for the discharge of your important duties in the interest of the Democratic party of,the United States; and I beg leave, in the seoond plaoe, to communioate to the Convention the state of the various branches of its busmen, m they now oome up for consideration before you. .Prior to toe adjournment of the Convention, two prindipalsubjeqtaof notion were before it. One was the adoption of the dootrinAl resolution* constituting the platform of the Convention, and the other voting Spon the question of the nomination Of a qandidato for re Presidency. Intheoonmot’adiscussionof the ques tion of a platform, the Convention adopted a vote, the ef feot of whioh wastoamend the reporter tbemajontyof the Committee on the platform (by substituting the report ofthe minority of that oommittee: and after the adop tion of that motion, and the substitution of the minori ty for the majorit report, a division was oalled for upon tee several resolution* constituting that platform, being five in number. The first, third. Fourth, and fifth of those resolutions were adopted by the Convention, and the second was rejected. A fter a vote on the adop tion of the first and third and fourth and fifthof those resolutions, a motion was made in each case to recon sider the vote, and to, lay that motion, for the recon sideration, upon the table: but neither ofthese motions to reconsider or to lay on the table was put, the puttiog ofthoee motions having been prevented.by the inter vention Of a question of privilege, and the ultimate vote competent in suoh case, to wit: of the adoption of the report of she majority as. amended by the report of the minority, and the ultimate question had not-been acted upon by the Convention, to that at the time when the Convention adjourfied there remained pending before it these motions, to wit: to reoonsider, to adopt the resolutions constituting the platform, ana the ulterior question of adopting the majority, as amended by the substitution of the minority report. Thorn ques tions and those only as the Chair understood the mo tions before the Convention, were not acted upon prior to the adjournment. Auer the disposition of the inter vening question of privilege, a motion was made by Mr. MoCook.ofOhio, t<> proceed to the vote for candidates for President «and Vfoe President. Upon that motion the Convention instructed the Chair—not, as has been erroneously supposed in the recess of the Convention the Chair determining for the Convention, but the Con vention instructing the Chair—to make no declaration of a nomination exoept upon a vote equivalent to two thuds in the Elector** College ofthe united States, And npon that balloting no suoh vote being given, thatorder was, upon motion of the gentleman from Virginia. (Mr. Russell,) laid on the table, for the -purpose of enabling him to propose a motion, whioh he subeequenUy did. that the Convention adjourn from the city of Charles ton to the oity of Baltimore, and with a provision con cerning the filling of vacancies embraced in the same resolution, which resolution the secretary will -please to read. The secretary read tho resolution as follows: Resolved, That, when this Conventions adjourns to day it adjourns to reassemblwat Baltimore, Maryland, on Monday, the eighteenth day of June, and that it be • respectfully recommended to the Democratic party o' the several States to take prdvision for supplying al vaoanoies in their respeotivedelegationstothisCqn vention when it shall reassemble* * The Convention will thus peroeive that the order adopted by it provided, among other things, that it if respeotfolly reooaimeaded to the. democratic party of the several States to make provision for supplying al. vacancies in their respective delegations for ibis Con vention, when it shall reaeeambie/ what i* the con struction ia a question not for the Chair to determine or to suggest to the Convention, but forth* Convention itself to determine. However that may be, in the pre paratory arrangement for the present assembling of this Convention, there were addressed to the Cnatr the credentials, of members eleoted, or purporting to be affirmed, ana confirmed, by the original Conven tions. and accredited to this Convention, la three of these easel, or perhaps four, 9 the credentials were authentic and complete, presenting no question of controverting delegates. In four others, to wit the States of Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, and Delaware, there were contesting applications. Upon those applications the Chair was called to determine whether it possessed any power to determine primi faete membership of this Convention That question was presented in its roost absolute and complete form m theoase of ".ississippi, where there was no oontest either through irregularity of form nr or competing delegations, and so also in tho oases of Florida, Texas, and Arkansas, ffl those four States, there being an appa rent authentic, naked, abstract question whether he had power, and preliminarily to determine the prima fade membership of th* alleged members of this Convention, the Chair would gladly have satisfied himself that he had this bat upon examining the sourcaof hts power, to wit: the Ruins of the House of Representatives, he was unable to discern that.he had any authority even j>rfma/acts to scrutinize and canvass the credentials, although they were suoh as upon their faoe wero free from oontest,or controversy, either of form,or sub stance, and therefore, he deemed it his duty to reserve the determination of that question to be submitted to the Convention;:and tn do* time the Chrir will.pre soutthat question as oue of privilege to this body. And now. gentlemen, having thus.presented to you the exaot stats of the question pending or involved in the notion of the Convention when it adjourned the Chair begs lotve only to add a single observation of a more general nature, we assemble here now st>» time when the enemies of the Demooratlo party, when, le me say, the enemies of the Con*titution.of the Unite: tstates are in the field lapplause], with their selected leaders, with their banners displayed, advancing to a combat with the Constitution, the interests of the De mocratic party or the United States;and upon'you, gentlemen upon your action, upontyonr spirit of har mony, upon your devotion to the Constitution, upon your solicitude to maintain the interests, the honor, ant the integrity of the Demoqratio party, as the guardian of the Constitution—upon you, gentlemen, it depends whether the issue of that combat is to be viotory or de feat, for the .Constitution of the United (States. [Re newed applauso.J ' It does not becoue the Chair to disoussauyof the question* or the elements of the questions- It may be permitted, however to exhort you ra the spirit of our community, of party mtoreits. in the faith of our com mon respect fortre Constitution, ip the sens* or our ooramon devotion to the interest and honor of our coun try; I saj to exhort you to foel that we oome hqrethi* day not to determine any mere technical questions o form, not merely to gain personal o; party triumphs, but that we are come her? in the exeroise of <i solemn duty, in a crisis of the condition of affairs of our oountry suoh as k&s,never yot befallen the United States. Shall we no; alt entor upon the responsibilities thus devolved upon us with a sense of our high dutr to our oountry, to our* solves, and to the fetates of this Union. (Applause.) Gentlemen, the Convention is now in order for the transaction of bus ness. , ... Mr. Howard, of Tennessee, moved to admit all the delegates to the Charleston Convention. Mr. Kavauaush, of Minnesota, moved to lay the reso lution on the table. FApnianso.] Mr. Cburoh askedthat the motion nnsht be with drawn, so that he might be enabled to offer anamea: - ment. The amendment was read for information, and was to refer all the olaims of new delegates to the Oommittee on Credentials, with instructions to report as speedily as possible tjie names of those who are entitled to seats, but with the provision that all who accept seats in the Convention are bound in honor to abide by the action of the Convention and support its nomi nees. Immense applause followed the reading of the amend ment, bnt was cbeoked peremptorily by the president. Mr, Ksvanauen withdrew the motion to lay on the table, and moved the previous question. After a long debate on points of order, the amendment •f Mr. Church was entertained, and the previous ques tion demanded. „ „ Mr. Randall, of Pennsylvania, rose to. make an amendment, but was called to order, tha previous ques on having been called. He then oalled for a division of the question, Mr. Montgomery, ?f Pennsylvania, raised the point of order, that no division could he oalled until the ques tion or a seoond to the previous question had been put. Tho president so deoided the point. Mr. Hunter, of Tennessee, raised the point of order that no committee on credential* existed. Itbadbeei Yaised todecide on tie regularly appointed and origina; delegates, and was now defunct. The President said that was a question of faot, not o order. lithe oommittee waadefunot it could be revive: by suoh a motion as was now pending. Mr. Russell, of Virginia, begged the gentleman from New V ork to withdraw hts resolution, or the latter por tion of it, at all events, if he dfißired the harmony of the Convention. Mr. Montgomery, of Pennsylvania, oalled Mr. Russell to order, the previous question being pending. . Mr.Rustell. Then, if Virginia is constrained to si lence, that silenoe may be ominous. A long discussion ensued on points of order, when Mr. Baulsbury, of Delaware, moved to adjourn until 4 o’cloek. \ Tho motion was negatived— yen® 7SK, nays 178 - On the vote being taken, a long debate nroao on the question between the Minnesota delegates as to the mhtof a substitute to oast a vote.

Wmle he was anxious . to preserve to every man the nght to be be£rd wunter i ruptedly, he could not but say that manifestations ef applause were oa'culated to draw forth such manifesta tions, or disapprobation. Both should be eheoked or b th allowed. , , Mr. Randall did that if any I3rpsat-bke hiiaas had been uttered he had not heard them. He proceeded to enlarge upon the nebt* of the seceding delegations, to exhort to conciliation and harmony in the action of the Convention, and to appeal to the patriotism of th© party to unite against the common foe. Mr. Richardson, of Illinois, was opposed to the mo- 1 lotion because it sought to let i nto the Convention dele gates from Florida, who were net delegated to this Con vention at all. Their constituents had refused to tffind ♦hem hare to seek sea*s, and although a gentleman from Florida had informed him that the delegation would take seats in th# Convention if the olive breach was extended to them, yet le, for one. was not willing to sit beside gentlemea eo constituency, and were bound br nothing that is done.by the Conven ti n. white ho h’ftwclf Wes bound by everything. He was further opposed to the amendment be auae it pro posedtoadmit the delegates from Arkansas, when a contesting delegation was annoonoed tp be here from that State. Was the Convention, by this resolution to prejudge this cage ? Mississippi came here accredited, and without opposition, ana she Was placed on the same l.st with those other State's. When a contest arises it should be invenisated by a oommittee. A voice- Why was it not done so at Charleston / Mr.Riohardion. B*eau*e at ('harleston.when action was taken, there was no regular organization of the Convention. Now it was different, and he was in favor of an investigation into the foots whenever there was a contest, A voioe. So tin I. Mr. Richardson. The proposed investigation could not coniome much time, and he repeated it shou’d be made in justioe to all parties. He should not be drawn into a notioe of any issues not directly pertaining to the question immediately before them. Mr. Cochrane, of New York, said this question was not one of the admission of new delegates, ft was of far graver import A portion of toe seats on this floor were vacafrt, and the question prises, why are-they tkns vacant ? The question alto arises, was there a Justifi cation, or, u not a justifi r n ion, Was thereon excuse for the secession that bad left a portion of the seats here unoooupied ? However this might be decided, he deemed it well for the Convention to seek to Call back their emng brothers. He Wa* not favorable to either of the resolutions as they stood. He was unwil ing to place any obligation on the returning delegates Chat could call a blush to their oheejrs or cause a pam to their heartj. But it should he rememfcreq that sum terms were placed upon the delegates from New York upon a former occasion, and there might be swne ex cuse for its now being offered by New York. Yet, he ooofd assure ibe Convention that New York wiNld always be found as she had hitherto been found, on th? side of liberality a* d Justioe. Mr. Bussell, of Virginia, said that he had. at a former period of the session, felt anxious to Address the Con vention. He felt.less anxious sow, because the vote taken at the morning session gave promise ofadtsire on the part of the majority, to secure harmony of ac tion that could not fail to lead to a happy union on prin ciples and a candidate. But at a proposition had been made to impose those terms on the,seceding delegations, he might say a few words' on tbs question. Virginia was here* emphatically, as she had been at Chariest'n. to harmonize the action of the Demooraoy- She hsd seen a rule adopted easowenng the votes to be east-in a manner which she considered unfair to the delega tions. Bhe had seen a platform voted down which her whole people desired, and one Adopted to whioh they were oppotod. They hsd seen eixhtstateeof the South go out of the Convention, and had yet remained present. Could she give any better proof of her devotion to the Democracy of the North ? But she desired to say now that she was equally devoted to the Demooraoy of the South. If true to the North, should she not also be true to the sunny South, united as she was with the Southern States by a unity of interests and sentiment*? *-he meant to see fair play between the Demooraoy both oi the r'orth. and South. And what was fur plav i In the opinion of Virginia it was tbst all the State delegations accredited «t Charleston should be admitted to this floor. Bui tie did hot desire to press this upon the Convention. At least/how ever, the delegations not oonteeted should be admitted at onoe without any delay, and the eontested delega tions shoujd then be referred to a oommittee. Be on) led the attention of the gentleman from Illinois who bad madetheonjeotionto the admission of the delegatee whose seats were unepntested, to the faet that at .Charleston the Illinois delegates^themselves were ad mitted although their seats were ooutested. He was m favor of admitting ell nneonteated delegates'at once, and then referring the contested seats to a oommittee. As to imposing any rest notion or pledge ep<m the.dele* cates,' he deemed that all were here as men of boner, to be alliu*hpledges as honor places upon ns. Montgomerr, of Pennsylvania, regretted that the previous question bad not been insisted on when firet moved, and the time of the Convention thus saved. As the discussion had arisen, however, he desired to ray that the pledge now required was a proper one. [Ap plause.] His colleague had stated that no man could be bound by any such resolution. He told his oolleagne ♦hat every man who was a Democrat and a man nf honor was bound by tho action of the Convention If he refused to be bo bound ha was no Democrat. [Ap plause.] If his colleague from Pennsylvania refused to be so bound, why, the sooner he lefc the party the better font. [Loud applause] He was, for oce, unwilling to allow these delegates to retu u to this hall in order to enable them to secede in & different form. [Applause andohears.) Mr. Johnson, of Maryland, hosed for the ered't of the State of Maryland, and especially for the oity of Balti more, that these demonstrations from the gslierr ihoald no longer disgrace the city- He moved to clear the gal leries Cries of “uo, no” Mr. Gittmsi, of Maryland, said that when the ap plause had bsen given to those who had spoken on the other side, h*s colleague had been very wiiliug to let it prooeed n Now that it woe called out b> the manly senti ments of the gentleman from Pennsylvania it was very offensive in his ears, t l-ausliteranu applause.] Mr. Montgomery said that he was aocustsmed to this thing- He had heard the hisses of a mot>m Charles ton when one man from the State of South Carolina hnd dared to remain in tbe Convention and speak his senti ment#. He, had heard a storm of h>sses come down from tbe gauettQß upon him. while the thunder of ap plause rolled forth at the disunion sentiments of ano ther delegate. The President said, at Charleston, in the instance alluded to, a motion had been made to olear the galleries, and it had not l*een done because the gentleman himself who was hissed had r» quested it might not be done. Mr. Montgomery well. I request that it may not be done now. [Laughter and applause.] After some further debate, Mr. Montgomery contin ued his remarks. The men who now asked to return to their seats in this Convention had not only withdrawn mCha leston, but hod satin an opposition Convention there, side by sido with this Convention. The* had tjien met m Riohtnondin a hostile Convention, and they hold that Convention now in terrortm over the heads of this body,and threaten to return there if this Conven tion does not act as they desire. He appealed to the principle and to the manhood of the Convention to say whether they have the nxht to admit the seoeders. when they had oslled neon tbe Btate« to meet and fi 1 the vaoanoies. He had beard much said about the evils of disunion. Bo\vss not only opposed to dis union, but to those who favor disunion and preach dis union, He was opposed to secession from the Union, and from the Convention as well. When he heard men dsolare themselves opposed to the principles or tbe party, ho thought it very necessary to requ re a pledge from them to abide by the notion of the Convention, Such a pledge had a precedent in the Conventions of the party. It hnd been imposed on oertain delegates at the lut National Convection, and the gentleman from New York (Mr. Coobrane) who had alluded to it felt the pinch of |ho oase. Mr.Bwing,of Tennessee desired to frnowwhst the Convention meant. Have they no enemy >n front! Have they an* States to spare ? Any Btates to give up to tho enemy ? If so, he did not knowof it. Ho thought they were pressed by an advancing enemy, constancy growing more formidable, until they are now almost re sistless, and 7®* we hear sentiments calculated to ex olte animosity on both sides of the bouse, and to widen the breaoh. He destred earnestly tosee the Democracy r 'resenting a united front, and fighting, not their own needs, but the Republican party. Ha would, there fore, use no words of bitterness. it had been said that there were no contesting delegations from Mississippi, Florida, and Arkansus, and nothing official was known of any oontest. , Mr. Clpibomo, of Missouri, stated that there was a contest m Arkansas, and that information of tho faot had been sent io the President of tbe Convention. Mr. Ewing resumed did not desire to pause and inquire what were the facts in regard to Arkansas. But if there is any real oontest there, then »t»ke that State out, end admit Florida. Mississippi.and Texas There wasnooon'estin these States, and no reason whythey should be left out. These r fates aie wanted, while they are left out Questions of moment, in whioh they are interested, are being acted on. Why should they be harshly spoken of, and driven fartherand farther away i The gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Montgomery) spoke of these aeoeding delegates as though they were tractors; but, he would say, the South does not regard them as such. „ m . , The South believes that if the majouty of the North adopt principles which the Southern States cannot with honor endorse, it is competent and honorable fog these States to withdraw, and sat to the Convention, select year candidates, and wo will see what we oan do. He was not in favor of secession, and had earnestly pro tested against it, end exhorted the Southern states sot to secede. His constituents would not justify him in suoh notion, and aa a life-’ong Demoorat he believed that the safety of tho lives and property of the South depended upon (be preservation of the National Demo cratic pa-tv. He concluded by exhorting tbe Conven tion to strike out the Mate of Arkansas and admit at least all the States who e seats are unoontested at once. The President begeed permission, m response to the request of Mr. Claiborne, of Missouri, to read a parer in relation to the Arkansas delegation. The paper was not that sent up by Mr. Ru*t, which on inquiry it ap pears hnd not bees received bv the Chair. The. President also gave 'no ice of an offer of the Washington Railroad Company to run a speoial train to the Capitol, at loo’niook to-night, U some sixty dele gates desired to go. [Laughter.) Mr. Lomu, of MnißAohusctis, rose for tho first time m the Convention, having been prevent d by a severe do mestioafflictiou from attending at Charleston. He was surprised to hear any allusion made hostile to the so oalled seceding delegations, and to find en opposition made to the admission of oertain States to a Democratic Convention. He found that certain i tates. standing upon what they believed to he their constitutional rights. |had retired from the Convention. He repudi ated the Idea of their being, therefore, deprived, of the right to return. The Coiwention.should gladly welcome [hem book. Ho heard with surprise.'for the first time in a Democratic Convention the talk of sections of the country and the party;- He thought that such talk and such sentiments were confined to another organiza tion. He denied the right of the Convention to impose a pledge on any of tho delegates. Would those who pro posed it like the doctrine to be applied to themselves? [Loud onrsot '* Yea! yes, we wculd!”} ■ , Mr. Lorimr. Then he could only add that if the pro position made here to day to exolude Florida, because she had not again credited her delegates here, was ear ned out. tie would himself withdraw from the Conven tion, flnd not be soen iu it aisin. [Loud applause.] Mr. Merrick, ot ill noia.smd that the State of Illinois was prepared to abide by the action of the Convention, and recognized the right that every man should be simi larly bound in honor. He could only say to the gentleman from MnseachusettsfMr. Lonng) if his threat was oarried out. there would be bnt one Seceder roo*e. The delegates who leordtd at Charleston bad withdrawn because, as the* say. their honor demanded it. He could recognize no right br which they could now claim seats in the Convention. J f M issisflippi had no contestants, they were accredited also to another Convention, and that was not a good commission here. He argued against the right of any delegates owing n double allegiance, and acting with a rival Convention, to taka aeata upon the floor and aot with this Convention in itadeliherstions. If the contest must come, he was wililng that it shou’d be met now. Mr. Samuels, of lowa, asked tho Chair If nny docu ment was in ids bands from Florida delegates’ claiming seats in the Convention ? - . I'be President. There was banded to the Chair only a newspaper Containing the official proceedings oi the Florida Convention, Mr. Samuels.

The questions before the Convention now stand a« follows: Mr. Howard, of Tennessee, made the original Aofioa-- dircotmjE the sergeant-at-arms to admit tolhe OWtfen tioo all the delete tes accredited to the Charleston Con' verities. Mr. Cburoh, of New York, niovedto amend by refer ring alttbe dams for admission to the Convention to the Committee on Credentials, and to request them to report, as soon as practicable, the names of the verson* entitled to admission; with tae proviso that all the dele sates accepting seats m the Convention are bound in honor and good faith to abide br the aetion of the Con - vvnben/sßd to sueport its nominees. 1 hlr. 6Hmore»of Pennsylvania, moved to amend the amendment by resolving that the delegations from Ar lcansas,,M>HiMippi,Florida.and Texas beatoncead nutted.to the Convention, and that the contested seat* ot the other seceding states be referred to a Committee on Credential to be selected br each State. - "' The. previous ancstion is oallsd on theUsfcamem)' ment, and the oau has been seooaded. The motion at the meeting of the Convention wilt be. Shall the previous question be now pot f There is a probability that-the question-will be or de*ed; that Mr. Gilmore’s amendment will be voted down: that a division will be called oa Mr Chureh’e Amendment, and that the first part of it wHI be adopted, without the proviso respecting a pledge. * It looks now as tbonsa thp -vote or New York would decide in favor of the admueion-of the • Southern dele gations generally where there is no contest,,a*d of both delegations where a contest exists.* ,j The chances still appear to favor a harmonious tarmi - nation of the Convention, as New York evidently holds the entire balance of power, and seems iikpjr to favor some sort of a compromise.

The naval appreciation bill was then taken Up, and the amendment providing for three steamers', to aid in suppressing tho slave trade on the African coast, wee debated nt length Mr. WILSoN, of Mastaohusetts, advocated the ue cessity of an increase of the squadron on the coast of Af ica to suppress the slave trade. Mr. MALLORY.' of Florida wss opposed to the United States interfering and -suppress!'g a slave trare between Cuba and Africa. Although he wasoppoeed to the trade, he desired that the United States only io tajfered between this country and A fric t, Mr. COLLAMER, of Vermont, said he would vote for more steamers to suppress the slave trade and thought the only way to prevent it was to step the shipping of them on the <oust of Africa, Just so lons as we gave prise-money to tho Umfrd States officers tart would not prevent the Africans from being takeirfroni the coast* 'Mr. SIMEONS thought it would be an aot of hira&mtj for this Government to take care of the captured Afri cans W this oounfry awhile, in order to give them a d* gree ofoivitizat on before sending them back. Mr. WIGFALL, of Texes believed Mr. Wilson hnd no sincerity io Ins proposition, and thought he charged the South with a desire to open the slave trade, on the mere diction of some newspaper extract or communica tion. Mr. SEW ARD, of New York, said be bad introduced a propoei ion years ago for preventing tbe slave trade be tween the Untied States and Africa, by increasing our navM force, and a police in the States to preveotthe escape of slavers, and also of emmet* to Attica That bill was submitted to the Southern Senators who were opposed to the slave tr.-de. and they approved of it. The views of all the South; rn Benato(s to-«:ay axamri toe rooreaee of tbe slave trade met with his views. It was our slave trade and not a European matter; end he waa not prepared to abrogate the treaty aita Great Britaiu on acconnt of its present force. It was our duty to put an end to the evil, snd he therefore favored the inoreaae of the A Incan squadron. Mr. DAVIS, of Mississippi, agreed with Mr. Simmons, that we had better oivilige these wild Africans before sending them back. He wss in favor of abrogating that srt.ole of tbe treaty with Great Britain whioh required us to keep a squadron on tbe African coast, and substi tutinc in its place an armed force o protect the Ameri can flax. , Mr. BROWN, of Mieaiesippi.did not beheve that any Republican would i onestfr say there is any inhumanity in taking these African* to Brasil, Cuba, and (jus coun try. Whv then continually talk about this Hun*? He denied that the Sooth were in favor of opening the slave tisde, He was against bringing the wiri Africans here to debase tho slaves of his or any other State.

Not agreed to—yeas 14, nays 25. Tbe question was then taken on the amendment pro viding Tor the purobas* of three vessels for suppressing the slave trade. Not agreed to—yeas 18, nayssh. Mr. HAMMOND, of South Carolina, offered an amendment, appropriating 9300,000 to pay the contract with A. W. Thompson, to- coal lands atCbmqui. He advocated the necessity for the pass&eeof the amend ment, be ieving it to be just and propjr. Mr GRFENadvooated.it as being of great impor tance to this Government in aconunerot&l «nJ political point of view.
