THE VincInia CONSERVATIVE CoNvEN- TION.—This Convention reassembled in Rich- Mond last night. A majority repor., signed by nine of the Committee on Business, was Te a, of which the foliowing is the substance iret. Accepting the resignation of the Con- servatives and complimenting them upon the zeal they displayed in the cause. Second. Urging the Conservatives to unite in defeating the obnoxious provisions of the constitution, and to elect proper persons to the State Legislature. Third. While expressing bcstility to the ob- jectionable features of the constitution, the ‘Convention still declines to make any recom. mendation to voters on the constitution e: purgated of such features,oras to the candi- dates before the le, feeling that the voters ‘will act for tbe best interests of the State. ‘The reportis signed by Messrs. Ould, Bald- win, Edmunds, Fayette McMallin, Sutherlin, Oameron, Moseby, and others. Mr. Ould made speech in its favor, explaiming that it was a compromise of the different opinions, and lett the voters tree to vote for or against negro saf- frage; against the constitution as a whole, or in favor of itas expurgated. It wasa course of action to meet the circumstances and ne- ceesities of the times. A minority report, signed by three of the committee, was read.

A motion to lay both reports on the table was defeated. Adjourned until to-day.
