The'Charleston Convention.
After 57 ballots, the Charleston Gen.-
! von tion adjohrned . on the 3d inst., to. meet
at Baltimore on the 18th of .June nest,
one month later than the Republican Con
vention. On the 57th ballot the vote
stood : Douglas, 1513.; Guthrie, .65; Hun
ter, 16.. The Douglas vote varied during
the ballotings at 150, 1511, 152 i, show
ing that his strength was fully, tested in
tho ballots fad, and that any further ef
forts would be fatal at Charleston. Hence,
Mr.. Douglas telegraphed from Washing
ton to his acents to seek adjournment and
change of place, which resulted in the se
lection of Baltimore. The objeet . of mak
ing the time a month later is two-fold—
first, to. allow a full popular expres'sion on .
I the result of the Chicago Convention, and
secondly, Ic order that the different Dent
' ocratie , candidates might have an oppor- ,
tu n ity to Cani•ass tttw their claims 'upon
that result.. A ttve-thrcis yote'(2o2) was
necessary to a notninitioi? ; and Douglas
saw very clearly that he ectUld not Obtain
that vote in the Charleston Convention,
and that seine of the SOuthern delegations
having seceded, a reconstruction of those
delegations at Baltimore might result in
his favor; therefore a measure which they .
rejected the evening before as ooming
from the other side; became with him on

The result, however, is by many regarded
as fatal to . Mr. Douglas in any event, or
to are other candidate on that side. The
breach is thought to be entirely too wide
to be bridged over; and yet, this will de.
pond somewhat. upon the result at Chita.

that Mr. Guthrie, or some other person
who is. objectionable to neither - section,
will be nominated at Baltimore on the

tion of their party will be indispeusPble

defeat the election by the House, and.
thus devolve it upon?-the Senate, where
