serious STARE up" which will lead to the
withdrawal ofthe Southern delegates, and a
total ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the Wing party. But
this / am 10th 10 believe.
The Republic, on yesterday morning, an
nounced that the Presidents Mansion would
be opeped in the evening for the reception Of
visitors, from 8 10 10 o'clock. Hundreds Of
she sojourning delegates to the Wing Conven.
tion embraced this opportunity OF seeing and

ic delegates, who were in Washington the last
week 10 May. This may or may not be the
case hut these jealousies and examinations
only show the embtiered state of feeling exist
ing among the several rival interests.
The weather 10 excessively hot. In the
great hall of the Treasury Department, the
thermometer, to-day, at o'clock, stood at 90
degrees This is one of the coolest places IN
the city. Should this weather continue, we
do not envy the position of a delegate to the
Convention which as enbles in Baltimore to-
morrow.
Thousands of persons are leaving to- day for
Baltimore. Notwithstanding the proverblal
hospitality ofihe people OF the Monumental
City, it is exceedingly doubtful, judging from
appearances, if comfortable accommodations
can possibly be provided for the immense
crowd which will be in attendance on the sit
tings of the Convention.
We trust that harmony may characterize
the deliberations Of this body, and that, at an
early day, the American people may have
presented them rival candidates for the highest
Office in their gift, which may commend them
selves to their respective parties as s'foemen
worthy OF each others steel.''
