his earliest pleas aud commenced his FIRST
suit. That he was successful Is evident
from the fact that, shortly after his admiss-
orable position and busiaess connection, ar-
rangements for concentrating the marriage
were made and all went on harmoniously
until short time before the appointed day.
During his visit one evening, he remarked
that he believed all necessary arrangements

patches of the same date:

the demands of Douglas, in constructing
a platform, is the sweetest morsel to Blu

SEVENTH DAY.

CHARLESTON, April 3O-3 L. Nj.
The Convention has at last, after a
weeks labor, brought forth platform,
but it is i'll able to bear the shock. At
last the Cincinnati platform substantially
has been adapted. Whatever of credit
or of odium attaches to that result be-
longs in great degree, and mainly, to
Mr.. Butler of Massachusetts, and second
ly to Mr.. James NJ. Cavanaugh of Min
nesota. Three times the minority of the
Committee on the Platform, all supporters
of Mr.. Douglas, have assented to the
proposition to strike out the Supreme
Court plank, and as many times have
they backsliden.
From the start, Mr.. Butler has ad-
hered to bis plan in spite of menaces.
promises and personal abuse, all of which
have been heaped upon him in no meas
ured quantities. At the last moment.
Mr.. Richardson of Illinois wanted to
withdraw the obnoxious plank, but Mr..
Butler determined be should not do SO,
and he was accordingly choked off.
The vote was exactly the reverse of
what it would have been twenty-four
hours previous.
is now said that the New York
delegation will take advantage of the
decision of the Convention this morning.
and claim the right to vote individually
in case the danger of Douglass nomina-
ton becomes imminent. In that way,
IT is said that seventeen votes will 90
over to the other side. At any rate, the
decision cuts both ways, as the Douglas
men will find, to their sorrow.
CHARLESTON, April 800 P. M.
The Convention is still in the utmost
disorder
Seven States, viz: Texas, Alabama,
Louisiana, Arkansas, South Carolina,
Florida, and Mississippi, have Withdrawn
from the Convention, and the great
Democracy is arrayed against them as a
sectional party.
A convention of the States which
| have bolted is to be held at six O'Clock
this evening, at St. Andrews Hall.
The Convention has adjourned at an
early hour, apparently in hope that some
arrangement may be made to bring back
the boilers, but this seems impossible
except in the possible contingency of the
defeat of Douglas by what is left of the
Convention.
Everybody seems astonished at The
results of the last hour. 1t is hard for
men to believe that the great Nationa
Democratic party is scattered to frag
ments, and they know not what to say
Everybody is specializing in regard t.
the results which are to follow. But no
, body seems to dream of reconciliation
: Indeed, in the present temper of tn,
delegates from the different sections O
the country, nobody seems to desire il
The general truth is that the great Dem
ocracy is used up, and each party charge
the other with being guilty of its blood.

side, such as that they can sweep tn
