INTENSE EXCITEMENT, All parts of the hall were densely crowded, as usual, ‘notwithstanding the extreme heat of the weather. The galleries were filled to overflowing with ladies. The dele. gates, as they came into the hall, were in high spirits, and -moany inquiries were made, and intense excitement was manifested as to what would be the result of to-day’s pro- ocedings. THE @PENING, ‘The Convention was called to order at 10 o'clock, when ‘t was opened with prayer by the Rev. Dr. Webster, of this city. The reading of the minutes of Saturday wa, dispensed with. MOVEMENT TO FACILITATE BUSINESS, Mr. Virron rose and said—We have been here six days, No doubt, gentlemen are anxious to get away as soon ‘as they shall have discharged their duty. and as quick as practicable. I propose to offer a resolution with s view to facilitate business. A similar course has been pursued nthe House of Representatives when there has been a great press of business onhand. On Saturday last, nearly 2s much time was consumed on motions to adjourn asin endeavoring to discharge the duty which we have in charge, The resolution was then rad as followa :— Resolved, That the Convention will, this day, take s ro- ees from half-past one o’olock to fur e’clock; and that a For xeeene, paises A nouslnation Cts casclacee foe the Bec om Ly can lor re: sidency be made before that time. Mr. Virrow demanded the previous question. Mr. Oasesx raired a point of order, that a motion to ad- ourn is always in ordor, and the resolution was not in order, unless the Convention shall rescind or repeal the rule. Mr. Vinton explained that the proposition was, in ef- ‘Sect, to suspend therule and substitute a temporary or- det instead. ‘The Parsinrnt remarked, that a motion to adjourn is always in order; but it was within the knowledge of the Chair that such a course had been adopted in the House ot Representatives, ex necessitate. The demand for the previous question was seconded, and under its operation the resolution was adopted. BOUQUETS FROM THE LADIES. During the above precedings, Messrs. Cabell and Botts ‘were honored with bouquets thrown from the galleries. MR, RAYMOND IN TROUBLE AGAIN—QUESTION OF VERACITY—= PRETTY SHARP DEBATING, ETC. Mr. Rewxean, of Ga ,said—I hold in my hand a news- paper, edited by a member of this Convention, in which hree States are charged with 8 corrupt bargain. Those hree States are named and specified. There is also a ge- neral charge, of the same character, against all the South- orn States,/ That editorial I propose to read. Crizs—“No,”’ “no,” “read.” “proceed to ballot.”” Mr. Rexwean continued.--I wish no confusion, but I hope ‘wo Will not be prevented from examining this case a little, Has the day come when the representatives of a free people, assembled in convention, are to be charged with eorrupt bargaining and intrigue, when, if any one of them were guilty of such conduct. he ought,to be expelled. If any members of the Southern delegations have been guilty of it let them be known that they may be brand. ed by their constituents wit the infamy they deserve. (App lause.)

On Saturday last, when his right was called in question, the delegate from Louisiana, (Mr. Sevier,) who filled a place on the Commit- tee on Credentials, rose in tho aisle. and said that he held in his hand a paper which put the matter all right. He said it was s report of « large majority of the Committee on Credentials. Mr. Srvixe here rose to a question of personal privi- lege, and said, with much firmness, “it is no such thing; | the newspapers misrepresent me.

The gentleman from Georgie had laid him undor oblize: tion, by reading the whole of the article in the Daily Times, on the strength of which the gentleman pro- to expel him from the Convention. He expressed particular gratitude for this, inasmuch as other entlemen stopped short of an act of justice on Saturday. ‘his matter was brought to the notice of the Convention by James Wateou Webb, partly for political purposes, and partly for the indulgenee of personal spite against him (Mr. Raymond), and which rests in motives which Webb dare not authorize any man to den; to Webb and A Voicr.—The despatch was address gentleman has the despateh, I Grinnell.

RECEPTION OF THE NOMINATIONS IN BROOKLYN. The result of the Whig National Convention was warmly received by the admirers of the hero of Chippewa, and very coolly by the adherents of President Fillmore, of the friends of Daniel Webster. During the early part of the evening, a party of the former hauled « «mall fiold piece upon the Brooklyn Heights, and fired off a salute of fifty guns, in honor of the nominations of Scott and Grabam, for the Presidency and Vice Presidency. Auo- ther cannon was subsequently taken to the same place, ind an additional salute fired. City Politics. THE WHIGS, THE WHIG GENERAL COMMITTEE—THE NOMINATION OF SCOTT. ‘There was a meeting of the Whig General Committee last evening, at tho Broadway House, to make arrange- ments fora mass meeting to ratify the nomination of Gen. Scott. The details of what was done could not be ascertained; but there was much feeling of dissatisfac- tion on the part of the Fillmore mon about the nomina- tion of Scott. The same feeling was expressed in the bar-room, and there appeared to be the gloomy appre- hension that the whig party are doomed toa tremendous defeat next fall, notwithstanding the roaring of cannon during the evening Antt-Scorr Freting anp Excitement AMONG THE Wnics or New Yorx.—We understand that the nomi- nation of Gen, Scott produced great excitement yester- day, among a large class of commercial men of this city who are whigs. ‘They openly exproased their dissatisfac- tion, and severally condemned the nomination. The ex- citenent was even kept up at the mecting on “Change Among all the leading merchants frequenting the Kx- change but one sentiment prevailed, and that was anti- Scots; scarcely a half dozen merchanta among the hun- dreds of them who have hitherto acted with the whiz arty were heard to express a willingness to vote for ‘cott. Large wumbers openly declared their determina- tion to vote for Pierce. and to do all they could to defeat Beott. Some declared that they would not only act ainst Scott, but would contribute money to prevent his election. No such excitement prevailed when General ‘Taylor was nominated, and the strong anti Scott feeling manifested yesterday plainly shows that the hostility to Scott has been greatly aggravated by the intrigues of Seward & Co,, which enabled a faction of the whig party to saddle it with a candidate. against the will. ekg A of three-fourths of the whig party throughout the country, They say if Scott is elected, his administration is to be controlled by Seward and his coterie of ismites, and that all will be so arranged. and offives so divposer of, as to pave the way for Seward’s succession after Scott; and, knowing the man as they do, rather than vote virtually for the succession of Seward, they will voto for Pierce, and work to defeat the candidate of the Sewardites and their tail of isms. THE DEMOCRATS. The Young Men’s Democratic Republican Committee held a special meeting last evening, but nothing trans- ired of any importance before the meeting adjourned. However, thie beet of unity and good feeling appears to exist among them all, ‘They say the whigxhave nomi- nated their tallest man to run the course with General Pierce; but they say it’s well known that the tallest man ia not always the best to compete with a lesser man on a firm plaiform. The Tammany Society met last evening. Kossuth’s Address for his Mother. Last evening Kossuth delivered an address at the Ta. bornacle, for the purpose of raising funds for the support of his mother, sisters, and other@relatives, The building was well Slled—the majority of the audience consisting of ladies and the anti-slavery party that rallied around him im this city from the beginning. There were no arrange- ments whatever for reporting the proceedingx, No table—no chairs. Kossuth read his address from manu- script, though his Secretary stated yesterday, in reply to an application from one of our reporters for a copy of it, that he did not and would not write it; that, in fact, it ‘80.
