Nothing definite was done yesterday, save something
in The way of temporary organization the appointment
of Committee TO report permanent officers, and,
perhaps, the report of that Committee. The ques-
ton in regard to the two delegations from Missouri
has been settled by the National Committee who
have admitted the National Democrats and ousted
the Bentonites. The only contest will be in the
of New York. neither delegation will submit It's claims
to the decision of the Committee, and thus neither OF
them have received tickets of admission TO the Hall
as delegates This being the only contest, it is pro-
bahle that no Committee Credentials will be rails
ed but a special Committee elected to take the mat
ter into consideration, who will either refuse admis
sion TO all delegates from New York until they ar
range their own difficulties or propose to admit hard
and soft delegates in proportion TO their respective
strength as shown by the votes cast at the last
gubernatorial contest for Bronson and Seymour.
We are pleased to learn that, while there is high
excitement, there is the very best feeling. No symp

the Convention will receive a united support, and
universal expression of opinion, that that nominee

The outside pressure is strong for Mr. Buchanan,
so the correspondents say. That, however, amounts
to little, one way or the other The place of hold

we kno1U will fulfill the understanding under which
they have been appointed, by giving real jealous

nomination, and adhering to him so long as they can
see reasonable prospect of his being chosen and so
long also their action in his favor does not verge
upon factiousness, but not moment longer. This
they will do as friends of Mr.. Pierce not as oppo-

will cheerfuly and cordially act in the event of the
choice falling upon some other of the eminent gen
