THE CHARLESTON CONVENTION.
Our dispatches from Charleston arc me:gro
and unsatisfactory. The two Conventions
were in f,!l blast yesterday, bnt beyond
brief synopsis Of tue speeches Of o few Of tho
members Of each. wo have nothing indicative
ot whut was done or what is likely to be
done. Evidently tho brooch is growing
wider and deeper. The dispatch to Forney's
Press expresses the belief that tho secession
is 4 matter Of small consequence the
seeding States will all 60 fer Douglas if he is
nominated, ard that his nomination is sure
thing. This mar be So, but there is nothing
in the general dispatch to warrant such con-
clusion. On the contrary, if the seeding
delegations ROMAN firm, :herc is much more
probability Of "unitcd South than that the
