Mr.. Howe, of Wisconsin, opposed the
Douglas resolution, because wholly unneces-

OF giving to the country the intelligence
which it demanded. The Administration
has declared an earnest desire and a fixed
purpose TO maintain the authority of the
United States, and not the authority of this

possible. He objected to amending the Con-

ST. LOUIS, March 22.-In the Convention
this morning, a committee was selected, COM
piising one delegate from each district. to
call the Convention together previous TO the
third Monday in December, if public exigen-
cies should require it, -.t
The following gentlemen were chosen as
delegates to the Border-State Convention t:
Hamilton r. Gamble, John 3. Henderson,
VIM. A. Hall, James u. Moss, VIM. DOUGLAS
Littlebury Hendricks, and VIM. G. Pomeroy.
A resolution was adopted, i~nstructing the
President of the Convention to transmit a
certified copy OF the proceedings of the Con-
yention to the President Of the United
States, and the Governor of each State.
The Convention adjourned until the third
Monday in December.
The following, from an editorial in the
hepu0Aedn, IS a very fair resume Of the pro-
ceedings of the Convention -.
The voice of Missouri has been spoken
through the convention called for that pur-
pose. That voice has pronounced that fur
ther concessions should be made with a view
TO the restoration of the union of the States,
ana that these concessions should have Crit
tehden's resolutions for their basis. 1t de-
clares that a reunion would be imperiled by
the use of force on the part of the Federal
Government against the people of the Sc
ceded States, and specially advises the Fed
eral troops be withdrawn from the States
where a collision is threatened. 1t favors a
national convention, hoping it may secure a
reunion. The same voice consistently pre-
nounced that there is at present no adequate
cause for retiring from the Union, and re-
fuses this time to pledge Missouri to Secs
sion."
The inference to be drawn from the action
of the Convention is that Missouri favors
every plan Of peaceable adjustment, and in
case of default favors steps for a peaceable
separation,
