Morning SessiOn-SecOnd Day.

The Convention met, pursuant to adjourn
mont. The morning was consumed in dry do
tails of passing credentials and settling disputed
seats--a question having arisen about the Mis-
souri and Louisiana as well as Texas delegates.
1t was finally,
ResOlred, That Texas should be represented
by The Louisiana Delegation.
The committee on credentials further recon-.
mended that the majority of the delegation from
States not fully represented, should cast the en-
tire electoral vote of such States, and have pow.
er TO fill vacancies.
This gave rise TO an animated and protracted
debate, which was terminated by call for the
previous question, which was negatived. Ayes
