MoRNISe SESSION.
At quarter before IL O'Clock, Mr.. Draper. of
New York. called the Convention to order, and
nominated the Hon. George Evans, of Maine,
temporary President Of the Convention, which
was adopted. with some dissenting voices.
Mr.. Evans, on taking the Chair, returned thanks
for the honor thus conferred upon him, and hoped
the proceedings of the Convention would be mark
ed by harmony, Cancellation and union, so that
this body might be able to nominate such candi-
date as would be acceptable to all the Wings of the
Union.
On motion, the following gentlemen were
named temporary Secretaries Mr. Byran of
North Carolina, and Mr. Upton, of Louisiana
Mr Brodhead moved that committee of one
from each delegation be appointed to nominate the
permanent officers of the Convention.
Mr. j. u. Sewer, of Louisiana, at this point,
rose and addressed the Convention, protesting in
behalf OF his own delegation against the action of
the Convention, as the time had not arrived for
the meeting of the Convention-and insisted that
no proceedings could be had until the proper hour
had arrived, thus to foresta the wishes of the
Convention

The Committee appointed to nominate the per-
manent officers of the Convention asked and OBJ
| tanned leave to retire. during the time occupied
in the appointment of the Committee on Creden-
tals.
At half past 2 o'clock, the Convention adjourn
ed until o'clock this afternoon.
Among the visitors in attendance upon the
Wing Convention, this morning, we noticed Gen.
Sam. Houston, who was among those who were
| voted for in the Democratic Convention for the
Presidency.
We are gratifed to learn from the Chairman of
the Kentucky delegation, that they agreed, unani
mously, last night to abide every decision of the
Convention, let them be favorable unavorable to
their peculiar views. This is an example that
we trust all may follow, as it is essentially Wing
sentiment.
1t is understood that Gen. Scott has to-day
written letter to Hon. Mr.. Archer, of Virginia,
in which he says, in substance, that he can write
no letters for the public eye on the compromises,
prior to some public call upon him, such may
be nomination-that lin substance) he is favora-
BILE to the compromise, and in the event OF a no.
mination, will say So at least to the extent of his
conversation with Mr. Archer. This is not pub
lie letter, but has been shown to some OF the Vlr-
ginia and other southern delegates.
1t is also said, we believe correctly, that the
Hon. Mr. Granger, mot Francis Granger, Ex
Postmaster GeneraD the delegate from the SYRIA
cuse district in New York to the Convention, has
waited upon Gen. Scott at the head of some ninety
Northern delegates, advising him, in earnest
terms, to commit himself in no manner by let
ter.
