Summary.

Summary.
Our Geographic reports this morning are volu-
minous and embrace dispatches through every
Geographic channel. From Buffalo we learn that
the Convention met, chose the Hon. Charles F.
Adams, of Massachusetts, President, and appoint
ed a number of Vice Presidents. The nomrna-
tons will be made to- day. The probability is that
Martin Van Buren, will receive the nomination
for President. Reports from Washington men,
ton the confirmation of General Kearny by
the United States Senate. That body was
engaged principally in executive business.
We have further election returns from several
States. Telegraphic accounts from kentucky
state that Crittenden is undoubtedly elected.
From North Carolina, our reports are meagre,
and nothing definite has been received. The
same may be said of Indiana and Illinois. Ad-
vices from Pernambuco, via Philadelphia, state
that a serious conflict had taken place between
the Portuguese and Brazilians. There was a
general suspension of business for time, and dis
asrous results were apprehended. From Mexico
we have later dates, but no news of Importance.

IArScH of THE STEAMsuir OuIo-On Saturday the
l2th instant at half past seven A. NJ win be launched
from the shpyard Of Messrs. Bishop Simonson
between 5th and 9th streets, East River the United
States mail steamer Ohio being the fret vessel of the
line established by Congress between New York and
New Orleans, touching at Charleston, Havana, and
Savannah.
This ship and her consort, which Is nearly CON-
pleted in the adjoining yard Of Smith Dimon,
the largest steamers constructed this side of
the Atantc and with the exception of the Great Bri
tain larger than any which has visited from abroad
The dimensions of the Ohio are, in length between
the perpendicular $50 feet breadth of BEAM 46 feet
depth Of hold rs feet; and her measurement about
$500 tons For quality Of timber security of fastening
and excellence OF workmanship, she has probably,
hitherto been surpassed but it is the novelty and
beauty OF her model which, especially, challenges the
attention Of maritime men.
The Ohio built under the especial superiuten-
aence of George Law, ESQ., and her able constructors
Messrs. Bishop 4 Simonson, have had the benefit Of
that extensive experience and observation
at home and abroad in the execution of this splendid
specimen of naval architecture Sach of our Southern
friends at present in the city, should not fail to
visit this vessel If it be only to satisfy themselves that
tine of ocean steamers is preparing for their
mediation, which will yield in particular to any
afoat.
The BvENA VIsrA.-The non arrival of the steamer
Buena Vista at Halifax, up to the I'd instant, has
created little unnecessary alarm She left here on
Thursday the 9th ult, and, therefore, would have
been but five days at sea- including stoppage at
Holmes Hole, where she reported on the evening
Of the 2sth is probable after leaving Holmes Hole
she encountered heavy weather. which delayed her
rival at Halifax. The next advices from that place
will, doubt, report her having arrived safely
