| SYRACUSE, N. Y, Sept. 5.-Immediately
after the Convention assembled, mouon
/ to reconsider the vote on the resolution ad-
hitting the Mozart and Tammany delega-
| lions was made, and warm and spirited de-
hate ensued. when the chsir decided that
| the New York delegates had no right to
speak or vote on the question. An ap-
peal from this decision was taken and the
chair was sustained-l4T to 81. After a
long debate the Convention refused to lay
| the subject on the table, by vote of 81 to
liz.
The convention then refused to hear Nc
Masters, of the Freeman Journal speak, and
ordered the main question. The vote was
taken on the substitute offered yesterday,
admitting 10th delegations from New York,
and it was lost--yeas IS, nays 40. The
original report of the Committee, admitting
the Tammany delegation, was then adopted
without calling the yeas and nays. Upon
the announcement of the result, Mr.. Genet,
on the part of the Mozart delegation, arose
and entered a protest against the rejection
of the representatives of $4,000 democratic
votes in the city of New York. The dele
CATION then withdrew.
A long series of resolutions were offered,
generally expressing love for country, deter
mination to prosecute the war for an hon
orable peace for all sections, a general de-
testation of the Republican party and its
principles.
The following is among the resolutions:
ResoIUed, The Democracy of this State
Will sustain no war countenance any
peace tending to a separation of these
States, and that they will regard any at
tempt to pervert this conflict into a war for
the emancipation of the slave, as fatal to all
hopes for the restoration of the Union
Resol0ed That it is the duty of the
Administration, initiating the patriotic spirit
of the people, TO abandon the national plat
form of the Chicago Convention, which
stands condemned by the SURFACES of nearly
two-thirds of the people, and to step forth
upon the broad platform of the Constitu-
ton, to expel corrupt men from Office to
ezclGds fran its conncils the advocates of sep
arstion or abolition, and to reconstruct its
cabinet 50 as To confirm TO the altered con-
dition Vi The country, and to command more |
largely The paohc respect and confidence.
ResolUed, That while we admit the neces-
sity of summary process of martial law |
among insurgent population, and within |
the lines Of military operations, we protest |
against the assertion that any power ex-
cept thu representatives of the people, can
suspend the privilege of the writ of habeas |
corpus for civil offenses. We protest against
the assumption of executive power to estab-
fish system of passports against the right +
of the States to organize systems of State
police; the assumption of the Federal Exec
utive to repress discussions; the doctrines
of Lincoln's message that the States derive
their authority from the government as sub
versive OF the fundamental principles of
American liberty,
In the afternoon session D. B. Ogden made
a patriotic appeal TO the Democracy to rally
around the stars and stripes in support of
the Union. He said the rebellion must be
put down or the Government under which
we have lived for eighty years will be put
down. He would have this rebellion crush
ed out, then he would guarantee tire South
all constitutional rights. Immense APP
plause and cheers greeted these sentiments
A long discussion ensued on the resolu-
tons which were taken up separately. The
whole series of resolutions were adopted
R. Floyd Jones was nominated for Sec
rotary of State; Geo, f. Comstock, Judge of
the Court of Appeals; Judge Scott, Corlp-
troller, Lyman Tremain, Attorney Generals:
f. C. B-ouck, Treasurer; J. B. Lord, Canal
for the long term, and w. w.
Wright for the short term.
Adjourned sine die.
