We have this morning received advicfs to
the l5th inst. S6om the convention. They
will not probably bring their labors to cio:s
before the Is. Of September. The question
whether we shall forthwith organize pnder
the new system so as 10 have onr senators and
representatives in the u. S. Congress instant
" upon the acceptance of on, constitution, IS
one which has already undergone much DIS
cussion out cf doors a, Ausrn, and is nfobl'
bly, before this time IN active debate in the
convention. In ,ha, body many Of the friends
Of the late aud present Executive (lhouga
themselves opposed to annexation) have uH''
ted themselves with others TO oppose the I'M
mediate oreaniZaVioa but the last ad"ees
lead Us to believe that the original and no'
friends Of annexation will nevertheless succeed
in carrying the measure. No donb, a! all y
