Rynders and the b’hoys from New York, who came on to back John Van Buren, had possession of the stand, . Mr. Skinnzx, addressing the delegates, said he was willirg to submit his claims to their suifrages. Mr BaRryzs acquiesced in this course.

Beebe and William F, Russell were appointed Becretsries, and procoeded to make out the roll. Thirty-six seats were contested.

Mr Morris, of Queens, moved the appointmeat of a committee to call on the Mayor, and request the protec tion of the police. Mr. Morrat, ands committee from the Brintnall Hall, or soft shell convention, announced that thoy were now in session, and requested that Mr. Barnes and others would come and attend. Mr. Barvzs replicd, that he, and his friends, did not consider their livesin safety ina place rulod and over awed by bullies, imported for the purpose. Ho there fore presented his compliments to those assembled, and declined participating further. Thereen the roll was called, and Mr. Ruger filled the Onondaga delegation with the names of Sanford C, Parker, Miles W. Dennis, and John M. Jaycox.

General Ward, Jchn Wheeler, Stephen Clark, D. D. Campbell, Wi'liam Kerlise, A. Birdsall, T. J. Reynolla, and F, H. Cut ing were appointed. Gencral CLanue was called out, and expressed his satisfaction at seeing so many democrats present, re- turping to the old piinciples of the party. Ile referred to the trading of principles in 1849, as lesding to tho introduction of political infidels, in 1851, in the State Convention, when the Committee on Resolutions were out taenty-six hours upen the question to acceriain whether the chairman would consent to the resolutions endorsing the compromise; yet today he is holding an office, with a salary ef $4,000. It was stated that he supported the Reltimore platform, having been con- verted by holding s national office. If thoy moaat to support the domosratic platform, they would sustam nomination, Toe national democracy had supported the Uuion, and had never been defeated, Never had we such a time serving administration ag now. Better let all go, than kave this state of things, Once, if one party was in the majority, they nominated a ticket and all supported it. He believed tho President to ‘be as pure and honest a man as ever lived; but his cabi net was not a unit, it wasa trinity.
