 "This day has been big with fate" The platform reported by the minority of the committee. was adopted this morning, and the following States as predicted have tor mally withdrawn, through their respective delegations, from the convention, viz Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, Louisiana, Florida, Texas and part of the Arkansas delegation. There will be a meeting of those southern delegations which have not yet withdrawn tonight for con- sultation and I think that we will be able to present united South tomorrow Should such an event take place, we will adopt the platform reported by the majori- ty of the committee and will nominate a candidate acceptable to the South. Woods delegation from New York, are anxious to join us, and think that part of some of the northern delegations will withdraw and join with us.
 .Ihe Charlestonians are in extacies over tMresnlt and cannons will be fired upon the battery tonight in honor of the event.
 In withdrawing there was nothing done that could in the least border on disorder; it was conducted quietly and peaceably. l saw many long faces among the Douglas men, who had been laboring under the idea, that the South was only z blowing off their accustomed gas" That they will endeavor to conciliate before we meet in the morning, I have no doubt. If such is their wish 1t can only be done by adopting the majority platform, and on that platform Douglas can never stand.

tNuit6SGDN,
 The mountain has laboured and not even a mouse has been brought forth. The regu- lar convention adjourned on yesterday, without making a nomination. 1t will however meet again in Baltimore, on the eighteenth of next month. The friends ot Douglas plainly saw that he had no chance of the nomination and they ask of those States whose delegations retired from the convention, to fill up those delegations, thereby, hoping to receive new strength.- Admirable contusion prevailed in the hall, during the closing hours osthe session, re- minding one of the confusion said to have existed at the Flower of Babel" when each man spoke in a different tongue They would not even pass vote of thanks to the gentleman who had with such urbani- tv and impartiality presided over their de- Alterations; because forsooth he was an anti-Douglas man." The retiring dele gates as you will see by the report which 1 send you, propose to the southern States to send delegates to a convention to be held in Richmond, Va, on the 2d Monday Ill the next month Their action was harmo- nious and deliberate The members from 
 Arkansas were. Jordan, Burrow, Manning and Hoadley; the latter withdrawing after one days participation. Messrs. Johnson and Terry, who had retired from the other convention, did not join at all.
 To-day Charleston seems quite deserted. more than two thousand persons having left on yesterday. One can hardly realize that it is the same place, so suddenly has it grown quiet. shall remain here for few days and then will endeavor to reach Bal timore in time to give the readers of the True Democrat some items of the proceed ings of the national conservative convention which meets there next week
 I have endeavored to give such outside items as do not appear in the papers of this city, and trust that have been in part sue cessful Ii.

the Dred Scott case we declare that it is the duty of the federal government, the common agent of all the States, to establish such government, and enact such laws for the territories, and so change the from time to time, as may be necessary to in sure protection and preservation of these rights, and prevent every infringement of the same. The affirmation of this principle of the duty of Congress to simply protect the rights of property, is nowise in conflict with the heretofore established and well organized principles of the democratic party, that Congress does not possess the power to legisate slavery into the territories, to exclude it there from
 Recognizing these declarations of princi- ples as instructions to us for our govern ment in'the national convention. and believ- ing that repudiation of them by all of the northern States, except the noble States of> Oregon and California, the whole vote of which is more than doubtful in the ensuing Presidential election, demand from us our unqualified disapproval.
 The undersigned do not deem this the place or time to discuss the practical illus tration that has been given of the irrepres sible conflict between the northern and southern States, that has prevailed in this convention for the last week.
 It IS sufficient to say, that if the princi ples of the northern democracy are properly represented, by the opinion and action of the majority of the delegates from that sec tion on this floor, we do not hesitate to declare that their principles are not only not ours, but, if adhered to and enforced by them, will destroy this Union.
 In consideration of the foregoing facts, ,,e cannot remain in the convention. We consequently respectfully withdraw leaving no one authorized to cast the vote of the State of Texas.

the democratic party in the presidential election. We beg to make these reports part of this communication. This convention has refused, by the plat form adopted, to settle either of these pro- positions in favor of the South. We deny to the people of territory any power to legislate against the institution of slavery. and we assert that it is the duty of the fede ral government, in all its departments, to protect the owner of slaves in the enj oy- ment of his property in the terrltories.- These principles, as we state them, are em- bodied in the Alabama platform. Here. then, is plain, explicit and direct issue between this convention and the con- stituency which we have the honor to re- present in this body. Instructed, as we are, not to waive this issue, the contingency, therefore, has arisen, when, in our opinion, 1t becomes our duty to withdraw from this convention. We beg, sir, to communicate this fact through you, and to assure the convention that we do so in no spirit of anger, but under sense of imperative obligation, properly apprecia- ting its responsibilities and cheerfully sub- hitting to it's consequences.
