John Bell delivered speech in Philadel-
phia on the llth, to miscellaneous crowd,
attracted by curiosity, and probably also by
the music of the serenade. There were fire.
quent Interruptions and responses, but DO
enthusiasm. and when the honorable Senator
retired the cheering was hearty, but not gen.
eral. MIR. Bell eulogEed the action of the
Convention in ignoring all inhammatory and
sectional issues, and he really seems 10 think
that they got rid of those questions by shut
ting their eyes to them. We have always
regarded Mr.. Bell as q man Of sterling sense
and politician of unbending integrity His
recent action does not impeach bis integrity,
but IT does indicate that bis perception of lv-
ing issues is not so clear as it was formerly.
IL 10 the height Of absurdity in any public
man to imagine that the great struggle now
going on between Freedom and Slavery can
be ended by euphuistic resolutions. The
agitation of the question now convulsing the
American people cannot be Quoted bv anv
number OF respectable gentlemen getting
together and resolving that the question IL
an abstraction which is not worthy of a SEN
siole mans attention. Is Freedom mali onal?
Is sresoom the fundamental law OF the Con-
stiiution, and the normal condition of the
Territories? Or is Slavery national, and
therefore carried wherever the Constitution
goes? Does the Constitution repeal the law
OF dod, the law Of nature, the principle Of
the English common law ms declared bv Lord
Mansfield, and the former decisions of near :
~ every Southern court in the Union hat
Slavery, bei ng contrary TO the law of nature

OF maa' can exist only by force, and by the
express sanction of local law which ceases
TO operate beyond It's local jurisdiction p
lnle Is the great issue Of the present time,
ana It must be met squarely aud manfuiiy.
IL cannot any longer be covered up by pIausi
Die shams, nor can il be lodged or got rid OF
by voluntarily shutting our eyes and saving
that we don't see it, and that, therefore, i,
is not TO be seen.
~, as was believed and intended hv on,
fathers, Freedom 10 the paramount law nj
the land, let MS know it. If, on the ooatrary
tue Constitution is q law Of bopaage, let u.

The thi cago Convention.

May l4.-The Tribune's Chicago CORES.
pondeRse says: The crowd gathers thick and
fast two or three thousand strangers are
BOW here. Gov. Morgan, Messrs. Reed and
Ashmun, OF Massachusetts,, and Lane, OF In
diana, are among the arrivals to night. Mr.
Blair, jr., is here, and leads the Bates inter
est, which is hopeful and earnest. They count
up over sixty votes on the first ballot from
nine or ten States. The highest calculation
for Mr.. Seward on the frst ballot is eighty
five votes. Mr.. Cameron's friends from
Pennsylvania are here in force, and very
clemerons. Ohio will probably lead for no.
body but Chase, but would accept Judge Me-
Lean or Wade, If profered. Outside Of
| that State there is not much talk of Mclean,
and he will apparently have but few votes
perhaps none on the lst ballot. Mr.. Seward
will lead, MIR. Bates will come next, and
chase will come third, having some New En-
gland votes, Cameron will come next, then
Lincoln. The latter is much pressed by the
Illinois delegates as compromise candidate,
and would be accepted by all the Northwest
cheerfully For PRESIDENT Of the Convention
Messrs. Ashman, Seldom, of Rochester, N
T., and Cor.in, are most named.

Ay Inc washington correspondent OF the
journal of Commerce writes:
"There is scarcely any doubt that the
Southern Convention will he held at the time
and place appointed, and that In 1t will be
represented all the Southern States, and that
the convention will nominate a Southern
President on that platform matter what
may be done at Baltimore. Great efforts,
know, are being made to defeat the scheme,
even by Southern men, but nevertheless it
will prevail. Az to the adjourned conven-
ton TO be held IN Baltimore, il will only
meet TO 60 into another dead lock. IL will
be impossible to nominate any one under the
two thirds rule "a construed TO mean 202
votes. Then II that rule be set aside, the
consequence will be disruption OF the con-
vention, and "a merely sectional nomination
made by delegates from Republican States,
which cannot obtain probably single cleo.
