FIFTH DAYS PROCEEDINGS.

BALTIMORE, June %.
| The convention assembled At 10 o'clock. the
Theatre be NJ nsely crowded.
| PRAYER wa offered by Rev, Swartz.
| Mr. Wright, OF Missouri, moved that the
Journal of vesterda proceedings be read.
| Mr.. McCook, Of OHIO, moved to dispense with
! the reading the position OF the question could
be stated by the Chair.
| The reading was dispensed with.
I The Chair, af er preliminary remarks relating
to the convenience Of the delegates, stated that
the main question had been ordered.
The Secretary then read the motions in their
order.
The Chair then sta ed that the question would
be first taken on the report OF Mr.. Cuttings Of
Maryland, adopting the whole majority report
excepting the case OF Alabama and admitting
in that State the original Charleston delega-
ton.
Mr.. Krum, of Messouri, on O question ofpriv-
ilege stated that in the haste OF preparing the
report errors occurred in some Of the names of
the 'Iegates in all the reports; he asked con-
sent to have them corrected.
MIR. Sibiey, OF Minnesota, enquired whether
under the rules adopted by the Convention it
was in order for the Chairman of the commit
tee on credentials TO be heard in clase OF the de-
bate, even after the main question had been Or
dered.
The President said such was the custom in
the House OF Representatives and he should so
rule.
Mr.. Cuttings, ofMd, asked consent to with
draw the first part OF the report. SO as to leave
before the Convention, as his report, only the
resolution admitting the Yancey delegates from
Ala. In 80 doing he stated it had been rumor
ed outside that his report had been made in
consequence OF the fascination of Mr.. Yancey
White he admitted that Mr.. Yancey was the
most facinating man he ever met, yet those who
believed that such influences dictated his report
knew little Of him as q man or Of his principles
US Democrat.
MIR, Wright, of Mass, raised point Of order
that no motion had ever been made to adopt
Mr. Gitting's report as an amendment.
The President decided the point Of order
not well taken, saying, that the report took the
position Of an amendment to the majority
report.
MIR. Wright objected to the withdrawal Of
the first part Of Mr. Gttings report.
Mr.. Gitting' then asked cDnsent to withdraw
the whole OF his report, which was granted,
thus bringing the minority report proper first
in order.
Mr.. Krum, of Mo, on behalf of the majority
OF tho Convention, asked leave to file state
ment OF the reasons for their conclusinn in the
report.
Mr.. Wright of Mass, objected
Mir Slbsy, OF Mimi, asked whether an OBJ
lection could prevent the reading Of this state
m-h.
Mr. Krnm said. if permitted to file this state
meat, he would waive tie right TO speak in
conclusion OF debate
Mr.. Wright still objected. When the gen.
tlernan from Maryland commenced his speech,
be should raise point y order that there was

no debate on the report of yesterday, and there
fore there could be no right TO reply.
| Mr.. Clark, of No., called attention to III,
remarks Of Messrs. Phillips. Of Pa, and Steven,
Of Oregon, yesterday, which certainly made
debate on the report.
The President then decided that the debat,
hnd taken place, aud gave the eoor to Mr.
kIum.
Mr.. Krun then read statement giving hiI
reasons for the conclusions Of the majority o
the Committee on Credentials. He argued tha
the secession OF the delegates did create vacan-
cies and trouble. The resolution adopted al
the Charleston Convention recognized such va.
cancies, and called on the States to fill them.
The minority OF the Convention, while denying
that vacancies exist, proceed to render their
arguments absurd by filling those very vacan-
cies. The. States themselves had recognized
vacancies by re appointing and re-accrediting
delegates to Baltimore. The credentials of the
mississippi delegates bore on their face the fact
that they were appointed on the Both day OF
May, and many were ne 3 names. The Alaba
ma Credentials Of the delegates bore on their
lace the date of their appointment, not to this
convention, but to Richmond, and lower down
they we're accredited to this convention. They
might as well have been appo nted also to the
lineage Convention; but what Democrat would
desire to be admitted on such rowing commits
sion to Democratic Convention.
Inc statement proceeded TO give similar rea
sons Tor the admission ofthe Soule delegation
rom louisiana. and u compromise Of the dele
cations from the other States.
Mr.. Brown, OF n. G. rose to speak, but was
called to order by a delegate from Minnesota,
who said there was no dsbateabIs question be-
fore the Convention.
The President ruled debate out o. order
Mr. Stevens, Of Oregon, rose to personal ex-
PLANTATION.
Mr. Stuart; Of Mich, objected.
The President--"rhe gentleman from Mich
Igan objecting the Chair must enforce the rules
Of order.
Mr.: SteVens--"I appeal to the gentleman
from Michigan to withdraw his objection"
Mr. Stuart--"No gentleman will 10 further
than myself in granting personal iavOrs, but the
business ot the Convention has already been
DELAYED 50 long, that canLot withdraw my
objection"
The President stated that a call had been
made Tor division on the question. He ruled
as the motion was to strike out and insert, it
was inadvisable.
Mr.. John Cochran, of New York held that
while motion to strike out and insert was in
advisable, yet it only applied to separate pro-
p6 Sition and insert another. This being mo-
ton to substitute series OF propositions for
mother Series, he held it was advisable.
The President. while expressing some doubt,
maintained his original decision.
The question was then taken on the SUBJ
stitution Of the whole minority report by MI.
Stevens, OF Oregon, for the whole majority re-
port.
