Nicholas Hall which, as I have slreudy stated, ‘was engeged for the mecting of tho convention, was ‘thrown open abcut eight o'clock this morning, bat the delegates did not begin to arrive till about half past nice. In front of the buliding was suspended a gigantic map of ‘the Uni-ed States, over the fase of which was the fol- lowing inecr!ption:— Leeecocoscco coco oo coo CDC DS € 2 ° THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ° © From ocean wave to ccvan wave, ° : ‘Muy they be ever happy, prosperous and free. 0 @00e200000 00c coco pc CoC OC OOS ‘The hail {s capable of containing about eight hundred, and is admirably adapted for pudlic meetings. There ‘were about four hundred delegates present, and about the same number of spectators, among whom we ob. eerved (heeeor four negroes. Fred Douglass haa not Jetarrived; but feward bas arrived, and so has Chauncey Schaffer, and, I understand, a large force of Know ‘Nothings itcm other parts of the State, PRELIMINARY MEBTING. ‘The convention was called to order at a few minutes efter ten o’clock by Joseph Blunt, of New York, who mominated John A. Kiog, of Queens county, for presi- ‘dent, and Mr. Jobn Seagwick, of New York, and Mr. ‘Staart, of Binghamton, for secretaries. The nomina- ‘tions were approved of, and the gentlemen took their seats on the platform. 4 motion was then made by Joan Parcs, tate Committe of Organization, ese two members, be appointed. ‘The motion, however, was not put; but a committeo of five to examine credentials was appointed.

The wee State Convention assenitled {bis morning in Jal, and organized temporarily by the choice of Dr, L. V. Bell, of Somerville, as Chairman, The perme- nent officers consist of Franklin Dexter, of Beverley, President; Josiah Quinoy, Fen., and twenty. three other Vico Presidents, and five seore‘aries. ‘The Parewenr, in his opening address, alluded to the destruction of Greytown as an usurpation of the powers of Congress, tending to involve the country in war, and #0 dererving of condemnation. although not enumerated in the objects upon which the convention was called to act From his continued absence from the country during the list two years, he relied upon the members of Con grees present to speak of the violation of the compromise, acted upon in good faith for more than a quarter of a century in the manner it deserved. In his view the formation of the free soil party had failed in its de sign, and he true'cd that auch acourse wou'd be pursued this day as would show that the whig party is the true Liberty party of thi phon Sedosie'd ‘be Sedo eer ate eid kesred He’ dia “not believe, with Mr Webster avd Mr. Everett, that the climate and soll would regulste the question of slavety. He would not even trust Now Eogland against the mercenary spirit of Hlaveholding without probibition, Ia conclusion, he exberted the party to stand up strictly to the lino of the constitution, whatever course might be pursued by o'bers. Mr. Texter’s remarks wero received with great ap- plause Mr. Jox1am Quincy said ho was not surprised at the persage of the Nebraska bill. Ho was sarprisod that it had not been dore before, and he rejoiced as it was the last etraw to the camel’s back that would lead to the throwing off of the burdens which had too long been borne. He believed it to be the duty of the country to rewove from the constitution the obligation to return fogitive slaves, even at all hazarde, and it was for the interest of the South as weil asthe North to doso. Af- ter pointing out the great evils which had resulted from tho fugitive slave law and alave exteasion, he indicated as the remedy the union of the free States in the demand for reloase from the fogitive slavo obligation, which men- sure, if carried out, would infuse new life into the union of the States. Threo loud cheers were given for Mr. Quincy at the conclusion of his speech. The Committee on Credentials reported seventeen bundred and seventy-cix delegates, representing two hundred and ninety-neven towns and cities The vote for a candidate for Governor was 818 for Wasbburn, and 111 for fenator Rockwell, 6 scattering. The vote was then made unanimous for Washburn. ‘The votes wero then collected for Lieutenant Governor, when the convention sijourned for dinner. APTERNOON SESSION. In the afternoon session, tho committee on the nomi- nation of a candidate for Lioutenant Governor, reported the whole number of votes as 569. For Wm. C. Plankett, 668; for John G, Palfrey. 3. Mr. Waite, of Lowell, from the Committee on Resolu- tions, reported the following :-— Resolved, That the whig party of*Massachusetts, ever trne to Hberty, the constitution and the Union, havo no need to abandon its organization or to change its prin- ciples. Treeolved, That the Union waa formed to establish jus- tice, insure demestic tranquillity, promote tho general welfare, and secure the blessings of Uberty to ourselres and our porterity. t we cherish a cordial, habitual aud im- hment to the Union, as the palladium of our pol! rafety and prosperity; that we recognize now and ever our fealty to the constitution, and our ob- ligations to maintain its principles and yield to ite ro- quirements. Resolved, Thatit was the policy of the Fathers of the Republic to condne slavery to ite then existing limits, ‘an is evidenced by the passage of the ordinance of 1737, and appled to all the Territories of the Union—thus clos rly establishing as s cardinal princigle of the govorn- ment that slavery should be forever probibited la the public domain. Resolved, That the recent act of the National isla- ture, in wae ts and faithlesty annulliog a ma covensnt sbich had stooa for more than thirty years, and Which the South had recetved tho fall benefit of leaves no zestricti m upon the action of tho free States beyond the exect provisions of the constitution itecif. Pesolvec, ‘That the long reposted and long continued aggrorsions of the advoca'es of slavery exteasion, bave awakened the people of Marsachusetts and of the free States tothe fact ‘bat their end and aim ts political s ES macy.

C., believed the whig cause to bo identical with tho cause of conetitational ilverts. With Massachusctta whigs in Congress there woul have been no occasion to regret the PAssnge of tha measur which had been dep'ored by the convention. The resig lation of the Stato for the past yoar bad been that of freedom and patriotic policy. So fer, then, the whigs had no ocrasion at homo to chsoge their name or principles; and the Mersachusetts delegation in Congress bad not compromised tho-e principles Massachusetts whigs had always been the friends of the constitution and of law. Ho agreed with Mr Quincey that the last grain had beon heaped upon the camel's back; the bow had >een xtretch- ed to the utmost, uatil the people were aroused at the evils continually heaped upon them.

She is clipper built and sets us beautifully pen the water as the ‘winners’? in the ro- gata club. The famous Maria does not ride the water with more grace and easo than the Grapeshot. this veeeel is 400 tons burthei tauachly built, hull long, narrow and black. She has certainly a warlike appear- ance, for her figaro hea is a cannon, her signal flag isa caunsn, 6ud her stern decorations are csnnons.
