ment OF this reasons for their conclusion in the

Mr. Wright Of Massachusetts, objected.
Mr. Sibtey Of Minnesota askeu whether an
objection could prevent the reading Of this

Mr. Crum said, it permitted to file this stale
ment, be would waive the right to speak in con-
cfusiun of the debaie.
Me. Wright Of Massachusetts still objected
When The gentleman from Missouri c 'maieD' q ]
his speech, be stuuld raise 4 point Of order
that there was no debate on the reports Of }ts
terdas. aud therefore could be no right Of reply.
Mr. CLARK Of Missouri called attention 10 the
remarks Of hessrs. Phillips Of Pennsylvan1a
and Stevens Of Oregon, yesterday, which GER
| talnly made debate on the report.
The President decided that the debate had
taken place mud gave the A3or to Mr. Crum.
Mr. Ctum then read statement giving bis
REASONS for the conclusions Of the majority Of
| the COMMITTEES on Credentials. He srsued that
the secession Of the delegates did create yacan.
! cies and trouble. The resolutions adopted at
the Charleston Convention recognized such
secessions, and called on the States to hl1 them.
| The minority Of the Committee, while denying
that vacancies exist, proceed to render their
arguments absurd By tlIing those very raean+
cies- The States themselves had recognized
| vacancies BY re- e-appointing aud re accsedtting
delegates to Baltimore. The credentlal. OF the
Mississippi delegates bore on their face the fact
that they were appointed on The 20th of May,
| aud rnhny we're new names. The Alabama cre-
dentias bore on their face the date cf their ap-
pointment, not to this Convention, but to Ricn-
mond; and lower down they we're accredited
| to this Convention. They might as well
hare been accredited aiso to the Chicago
Convention. But what Democrat would desire
| TO admit men on such rowing commission 10 a
| ceeded 10 giye similar reasons for the admis
sion Of the Soul. delegation from Louisiana
aod q compromise Of the delegations from the
| other k,.a
Mr. Brown Of North Carolina rose to speak,
but MAS called to order By delegate from Min.
| nesota, who said there wa. no debAtabla ques-
ton befars tile Convention.
The Pre.idcnt ruled debate out Of order.
Mr. stevens Of Oregon rose to personal ex-
PLANTATION.
slr Stuart of Michigan objected.
Tbs President-1he gentleman from Michi-
gan objectlng, the Chair must enforce the rules
| Of order.
Mr.. S,eveus-I appeal to the gentleman from
Michigan to withdraw his Of iec ion.
| Mr Stuart-No gentleman will go further
than myself in grantit 6 personal fayors, but the
business Of the Convention has already been
delayed SO long TINT cannot withd draw my Oh.
lection.
TIE President stated that call bad been
made for q division on the question. He ruled,
as the motion WAS to strike out ald insert, il
Was ,ndiyisable.
Mr. John Coehraue of New York held that
while motion TO strike out aud insert was in
dlvi.abe yet it only applied 10 separate prop
osition to s'rike out one indivisable proposition
and insert another. This beirg motion 10 sub
sli1ute series Of PROPOSE ions Tor another
series, te held it was divlsAble
