Central and Western New.York
Yesterday morning Kossuth made brief address 10
the Germans and called upon by large number of
adies aud gentlemen in his parlors at the Hotel.
AT !Ole O'Clock the party took leave OF Utica, and

PORTLAND, Thursday, d!


In the Convention to- ay, after organiza-
ton, and while the Committee on Credentials and
Resolutions were out, the time was devoted TO
speaking.
Messrs. George Evans, VIM. p. Fessenden, and
J. W. Pickering candidates for Delegates at Large
TO the National Convention, each declared his I'M
qualified preference for General ScoTr, as the can
didate for the Presidency. They were followed IN
their remarks BY Mr.. j. ;. Little, Of Portland,
who expressed his individual preference for Daniel
Webster, but waived it in favor of the Scott SEN
timent.
Mr.. Chapman, of Biddeford, expressed similar
sentiments with Mr.. Little.

Ii, Of Bangor, Pike, Of Calais, and Rsason, Of

OF the Committee on Credentials relating to the
contested seat from the lid District Of Msssachu-
sets, which gives the seat to N. j. Lord instead
of to Robert Rantoul, and this was coneurred IN
by Yeas 1874; NaysS3.
General Nye said he had voted to sustain the
report Of the majority, and therefore moved to re-
consider the vote. He did so from the fact that
ne was conscious the Convention, in voting on the
important resolution in SO hurried manner, could
not understand the merits Of the question. He
had never seen Mr.. Rsntoui until yesterday, but
he thanked God he had an innate love of Justice.
Mr.. Venable moved to reconsider the vote, in
order that General Commander might be beard,
but this was voted down.
The President then announced shat the resolu-
ton of Mr.. Cave Johnson had been msdifed a,
follows
Resoleed, That the Convention will proceed to the
nomination OF candidates for President and Vice Presi
dent At the present time and that the be the spe
ca order until the nominations shs have been made
lRapturous expressions OF delight and s.ento-
nan cries Of GOOD, good !" Lets have the
vote" Agreed, agreed amid which the rapping
OF the gavl was heard, as is usual on such Occa-
sons.l
Mr.. McRae moved to postpone the consideration
Of the resolution until after the Committee on
the Democratic Creed and Platform shall have made
their report. Ceres Of mo, no." lntemngled
with demands to order, and Question, question"
Dir. McRae, as there was a general disposition
to vote on the resolution, withdrew his motion to
postpone its consideration. Tremendous ap-
plause.
The resolution was then adopted, followed by
wild demonstrations of deig tt and long-continued
applause. The excitement was intense, both
among Delegates and in the long and closely
packed galleries, and there were repeated cries OF
Sit down." Order, ORDER" And now for the
voting -" silence" The President banged away
with his mallet - " Gentlemen will preserve
order"
A gentleman moved that the voting be post
poned until the delegates can consult. The mo-
ton was voted down by large majority.
The Convention then proceeded to vote for a
candidate for the Presidency.
The Clerk began with the State Of Maine. As
the votes of the various States were given, ap-
plause followed from the fnoAds Of the respective
candid ates There were also loud Izzas, and the
crowd in the gallery frequently gave vent to their
JOYOUS feelings. The greatest possible excitement
prevailed throughout the proceedings. Finally,
the vote on the first ballot was announced as fol-
lows, amid comparative quiet:

sSess! Dspatea 70 The THibvs>.
BALruoRK Thursday, June 3-P M.
The interest and excitement in and
around the Convention are unparalleled. Nothing
is talked OF, or thought Of or dreamed OF, except
"The Convention" Everybody has something to
tell or some thing to ask about his favorite candi-
date, and Cass, Buchanan and Douglas are in ev-
erybody's mouth.
This morning, the doors Of the Institute were
besieged long before the hour Of opening, by an
eager crowd, and everybody seemed determined to
get in at all hazards. The delegates themselves
were in some instances rudely handled by the
outsiders.
The exclusion Of Rantoul and Commander
created an intense excitement, but after 8 time
the masses either became reconciled or lost their
interest on some new point of attraction.
General Commander gets very little sympathy
His presumption in endeavoring TO thrust himself
in as whole State, is considered to be little too
much Of good thing, especially as he has nobody
but himself for constituents.
The lookers-on were very eager for the ballet
ing, and when it commenced, the interest was
most intense. On the announcement of the first
ballot, the applause was long and loud for Cass,
Buchanan and Douglas the others were hardly
noticed.
As the baIotings progressed, and Cass and Bu-
chanan kept their ground go well, the friends Of
each became highly elated, and Young America
began too look glum.
Upto the hour ofthe adjournment Of the morn
ing session. the Old Fogies carried high heads, and
during the recess they will brag at no small rate.
Thus fer the prophecies of the abandonment Of
Coss are falsifed, and of prophecies especially we
may say, fqisus in unO faisuS in omnibus; so we
are all aAoat, and, except the by-bdders for GER
tain candidates, nobody pretends to guess who is
to get the nomination.
Firm as his friends appear, it is evident that the
knowing ones do not consider cass safe and of the
two they rely upon Buchanan. The friends Of
both are making the most extraordinary efforts to
rope in the small fry of Lane, Marcy, Houston,
Dodge & Co., but thus far with no success.
From the first ballot find that Cass has IS
votes from Free States, aud only Al from Slave
States Buchanan gets 80 Free and 81 Slave
votes; Douglass only from the South
Cass, staggering under his favorite lin lSiS)
two-thrds rule, is likely to suffer the fate of Ac-
tnon and die by the fangs of his own dogs.
The Convention is about to adjourn for dinner
and talk. will send you more anon. s.s.T.
