Of the previous question.
The majority report excluding all Of the seceders ex
cept those Of Mississippi aud onc-hilf Of Georgia will
probably be adopted by large majority comprising the
full Douglas strength. On the announcement of the
vote rumor says the Hon. Caleb Cushing will address the
Convention expressing his views in opposition to the
course pursued and after resgning the Presidency will
withdraw from the Convention, followed by about fifty
delegates The friends OF Douglas contend that the
number seeding would not exceed thirty and efforts
were making last night by party to increase the
number aud by the other to prevent many posi-

THE RICHMOND ONvENTION-PROBABLE AID
JOURNMENT TO BALTIMORE


At ~ o'clock to-day, in accordance with adjournment
the Seceders Convention is to reassembe at Richmond
aud il is understood that portions OF delegations from
South Carolina and Florida have remained there with
the understanding that they were to and adjourn
from day TO day until their associates in Baltimore should
deem it advisable to return
Yesterday afternoon after the probable completion Of
the report of the Committee on Credentials
tained 1t was stated with great deal of confidence, that
despatch had been sent TO Richmond to the President
OF the Convention requesting them TO meet and adjourn
to meet in Baltimore on Friday morning. The object Of
this adjournment Baltimore is the fact that it has been
ascertaned that about fifty of the delegates of the Con-
venton will retire. should the majority report be adopt
ed, and join the Seceders Convention and that their
meeting in Baltimore will naugurate the movement un
der more favorable auspices. Those who are expected
10 secede portion of the New York delegl alton,
three probably including the Hon. Caleb Cushing
and Mr. Lorng of the Massachusetts, delegation, alb out
half OF the Virginia delegation, small fraction from
North Carolina, part of Missouri and three from
Pennsylvania. Should this programme be carried out
there may be lively time expected in the Convention
to-day.
The Seceders thus calculate to open their Conven-
ton in Baltimore with hundred and SeueRteO men,
bers, leaving four hundred and thrtyour of the dele
gates accredited to Charleston still in tue Convention.
The calculation of the friends of Mr.. Douglas is that
with the contestants who would be admitted and the
filling up of the places of the new Seceders by the bal
of the delegations the Convention will have full
representation from all the States except South Carolina
Florida, and Missssippi-and will still claim to he the
National Convention
1t was stated last evening that proposition had been
made yesterday to the New York delegation by the
members of the Richmond Convention the basis OF a
plan for restoring harmony The proposals were that
New York should agree to admit all the Seeding dele
gates and restore the Convention the precise cond-
ton it was in the of the assembling at Charleston
with the understanding that of the candidates voted
for at Charleston, including Douglas, Guthrie Lane
Hunter, Dickinson johnson, Davis Pierce or Toucey
should be candidates for the nomination. New York. it
said declined the proposition although, if correctly
stated the object clearly open the way for the
nomination Of Seymour, or any other upon whom the
New York delegation could agree.
