moderately. Gen. Ward, great slave
holder from Georgia,was chosen President.
The Benton Delegates from Missouri were
rejected, and Atehison's admitted. The
Platform Of '52 was re-adopted, with some
new planks to suit the present demands Of
Slavery and Fil,ibusterism.
The Convention adjourned yesterday
the two-thirds rule in force-after taking
the 4th ballot, which resulted as follows:
