cept as to question OF time. The South
is in earnest. He could see in this division
and this distraction ofthe Democratic party,
a ripple that would swell to a wave, and
carry to the Presidential chair the arch-fiend
of Black Republcanism. His appeals for
conciliation and compromise were most i'm
pressive. He concluded by declaring that
he intended to remain in the Convention
until the last feather was placed on the
camel shack, and then he would be among
: the foremost to leave it. r.
Mr.. Flournoy of Ark. said his advice was
never to give up the ship, but to call the
crew and face the storm. He had been
reared amidst the Institution. He believed
slavery a benefit to master and slave. All
he had in the world was the product of
slave labor and therefore he trusted he was
above suspicion. He believed that his
Southern friends had acted wrong in this
matter. He believed that the South cannot
be united on the ground they have taken,
and that they will not be sustained by their
constituents
Mr. Montgomery of Pa was opposed to
these speeches GU either side If there are
more delegations prepared to leave, let them
go. They have all made up their minds and
we have made up ours. We wish to pro-
coed with business.
New YORK, May 1st-The dispatches to
the Forney Press say that Virginia has re-
solved not to secede, and Tennessee, Mary
land, and majority of Kentucky, North
Carolina and Mississippi, viii remain in the
Convention.
The Douglas men have held immense
meeting. Addresses were delivered by gen.
tlemen from Maryland, Arkansas, and 9TH
er Southern States. All the speakers
pledged their States for the Little Giant by
large majorities.
Col. Flournoy said he intended TO address
the Southern friends in the Convention in
favor of Douglas.
1t was stated that dispatch from the
Chairman of the Louisiana State Committee
declared that Douglas would carry that State
by a large majority, Notwithstanding the
secession of their delegates. The secession
is not regarded as serious. Only the ex-
tremes have bolted, and the conservatives
of the South say they are glad they are
gone, as they say they iujure the party even
in the South.
NEW YoRK, May 1.-The Southern Sc
ceders appointed committee on organiza-
tion, and meet at noon to-day, when an or
ganization will be perfected.
& Douglas processes satisfaction with the
result, declaring that the seceders do not
represent the popular sentiments of their
States, The Wood delegation all joined the
seceders r- r - -.-
