The caucus held by the delegates last evening did
not further the object of the Convention in the least
aud the whole morning session has been spent in
action upon the resolutions reported by the committee
upon credentials The proposition that the delega
tons from States not fully represented should be al
lowed to ill vacanc being rejected the districts
represented will Of have vote in the ballot
ing This rejection had the effect of increasing the
hopes Of the Clay 1t is known that the States
not fully represented would be DESTROYS Of casting
their whole vote for Mr. Clay The admission of
Of the Louisiana delegates to Taylor votes for
Texas has since given quite the contrary impression
The Convention has until four o'clock but
the reporters and the public will not be admitted until
six 1t is to be hoped that this private consultation
will enable the Convention to proceed to the ballong
this evening
The ratification meeting that had been fixed for to-
day has been postponed until the day after the nom
nation, and may not take place until Saturday. This
will be great disappointment to the thousands who
have come hither to take part in it but, it cannot
be avoided, the wings Will have to submit without
! grumbing.
1t is reported that letter from General Taylor is to
be read during the private session of this afternoon
which will increase the vote for General Taylors side
