There was little caucussing last night
unaninity of sentiment making it unneces
sary. The prevailing impression is that tn
session of the Convention will be short
and its action entirely satisfactory to th
party at large.
Hon. Il. Il. Daniel, Of Richmond, vii
call the Convention to order, and Hon
Thomas S. Bocock, Of Appomattox, viii
probably be the permanent president.
