The Congressional Convention for the second District met al Philadelphia, Clark county, on the l4ih inst, and adjourned without making any nomination. We learn that not even ballot was had. The friends of Col. Can't and Dr. Mitch ell, the two prominent aspirants, agreed to refer their claims to the people, after which the convention adjourned. Both have declared themselves candidates.
 In accordance with our often repeated preference, we hoist the name of COL. E. w. GANTT, and shall do all in our power 10 secure his election. With the names of HINDMAN and CAN'T on the democratic ticket, the people of the First and Second Congressional Districts have an embodiment of principle and talent around which they can rally.
