The bal opened about last Tuesday, when some ot the Pennsylvanians came in, ani seemed to have ar- vived at the conclurion that there was no ni sity to hold » Convention, and that Buchanan had not only all he votes here, but thet as far as the election by the speopie waa comcerned, their favorite candidate was Ike Capt, Scott when he aimed atthe raccoon, The Keystone 3ckers had everything tbeir own way for time, taking the elty by storm. Pennsylvania did not intend to lose @ho [fight by not beicg early enough in the field; and while there was hard’y any one else here they regulated matters to their own sa {sfaction, figuring out one hun- dred avd twenty votes for ‘‘Oid Buck” on the first baliot. About Thursdey a ratt of New Yorkers s:rived—the softs ‘first, covered wich dust und dem oratic principles. They ‘were really the unwashed democracy, and a number of fine lots uf Jaud might have been surveyed and laid out on the Surveyor’s exuboract whiskers. fhe great topic then was the New York quarrel. There had been some- big ofa row among be Cincinnatt democrats; but as Shey always quarrel first, then make up and vote the mame ticket, their little squabble faded into insignificance Doefore the tremendous and overpowering dispute in the Expire State.

BUCHANAN HEADQUARTERS, WISWELL’S HALL, 3 Fourth street, below Vine. POOLE TELE LELNONLOOLEOOCOOENCONDOO RE ‘When we got the news of Crampton’s dismissal there ‘werg a few Pierce men on the ground, and the thing wa: immediately pusbei to the farthost extent to moske capital for the Brigadier. Conspicuous gmorg these men were Hallett, (District Attorney,) ard Greene, (editor of the Boston Post, naval officer, con- frsctor“or blanks, paper and twine, and would have liked to bawe been Minis‘er to England, but couldn’t come it,) pnd P. Riley, (no relative to William, who was requested fo “rise up,” but United States Marahal). A man of the wame of Butler, who has been District Attorney some- “where, was also in this party. They brought all the power of the administration—wnen I say ali the power, I mean all the money—to bear upon the delegates, and it is pretty generally un’erstood that Mr. Pierce will have a gratifying?y large vote on the first ballot. An eminent ‘Western politician who was told here that Mr. Pierce was Btronger in the Convention than he thought, said that it would be @ remarkable thirg in the history of this party Ma man should be rominated when no one was in his favor. ‘They ark,” sail the Governor, ‘ our Celegates ‘to vote for Mr. Pierce out of politeness. Now, I am the most polite man in the worl}; but when {t comes to pe- Filing the best interests of s republic like this, [ think it 4s thre to drop polfteness,”? That sexms to be the gene- ral sentt it, and when the Pierce men find it out, as ahoy will next week, they will be all ready to play into the banda of Doug! That makes the Young America wteck look up. While all theze thirgs are going cn here, and while all &hese mon think (hat every eye i¢ watching their move- ments, it may be pertivent te eay that they are very much miztaken when they tbirfk that the great body of the people are interested in thefr movemen's. Your cor- respentent bas travelled over @ considerable part of the Oountry since the laa} Kacsas flurry and the Sumner row dm the Senate, Jeurralista must keep their eyes and ears open, and ‘oust learn something by so coing. I heard no one say that be cared anything for either of these exsiting ques- Hons, 2a they are oalled by the politicians. My fellow Srevellers talked shout traJe, about the crops, the nice weather, the good times; everything, in fact, but poli- a Kansas, if incidentally mentioned, was imme- @ietely tabooed. Every one seemed to think that thore ‘Was ro much lying on both sides, that no one could pro- perly Judge between facts and falsehoods. The people tre tot such fools as the politicians think them to be, They fknow porteotly well that sll these quostions are carefully mureed to make political capital, but they are not Mouclied nearly enough to arouse their sympathies, The great heart of the people is right, true and weund, It cannot be fooled or bamboorled. Let the de- maceracy beware how they try to do anything of the kind. Even ia this city, where the excitement would seem to ‘He the groatest, it doer not extend outside of “two Squares’ from the Buract House, and, indeed, ia mainly Confined to the preciacts of that very excellent hotel. Even whiskey—thst most potent agent in politios—al- Rhongh most liberally dispensed, failed to get up a furore, and strawberries at fitteen cents per quart, had more wustomers than pamphlets about “Which is the true de- mocracy of New York.” which were given, like tho acts Of the Apostles, “without money and without prise,’? Meanwhile the sufferings of the patriots ‘Is intoler- able.” The Buraet Houre fs suMiciently large to feed ‘and lodge the entire Convention, but there are a great mapy outsiders to be taken care of, Mr. Coleman’s ar- rargements ahow energy and forethought. Hs has made every available inch of space tell, Some of the most Shocking scenes have taken place at the Burnet; wives have besa remorselessiy torn from their husbands, and ®onsigred to gloom in the fifth story; children have been dragged away from their progenitors, and single gentlemen have been compelled to sleep double, or take a blanket in the corridor, I assure you, really, that it isquie as horri‘ying as anything fn ‘Uncle Tom’s Cabin.” I wouldn’t wonder Af we (that 15 those of us who are young and handsome,) Were taken come fixe day over to the Kentucky side of ‘or amd sold af some awful auction block or other. ‘What would Mrs. Stowe say to that ? Ja accition to the main house, which is the largest hotel in the warld, Mr. Coleman has @ house on Third frtreet, the ¢nitrance to the second story of which from the Burnet Houre, is by s bridge of good . (No pan Mntond:d). This building is three storias in height, two undied fe'pt deep andabout thirty fer: wide. Along the Aldes bulkbeads haya beoa constru: ic, and three tiers Of berths rigged, each berth be:ng intended for two per- wons. Thus \we have two thousand beds. The whole af- fair fs quite Aanique, and resembles the forward ‘cabin of aCalifornia steamer, only that there is a little more light fndair. In phe basement there iss dining room, with plenty cf watir and any quantity of soap, so that the do moe acy may wash itvelt white as tho ‘driven snow,” whatever tbatis. Apropos des bottes—bouts 1 mean—ths macter of ne of the river steamers has announced that his boat will he a hotel during the sitting of the Con- vention, A /f0od many elt'zons have tanned Intech keys 0 the youth “ul and agreeable delegates; and #0 we will do prety we'll, I reckon, whoever is nomtasted. ‘Tho Burt House being the coatre of attraction, there pprneneorese > ig noend of fun there. The arrival of every train isan event, and the rush for rooms is quite refreshiog to out giders, Scmetimesa patriot cits fn the middie of his lug- gege, like Marius at theruize of some place in Fuinois— Carthage, I thins— sometimes he gets in somewhere, and sometizes be gets out. Bat if he stands by, keeps oool, ard skovela off the dust, he is pretty sure to get what an old Jackson democrat used t2 call ‘Some place to tall down cnto.” After he pstriot has got ou’ bis clean clothes and wasbed the dust out of his msophagus, he joirs the innumerab!e cavavan of politicians, elther as @ borer or s boree—it is about the same thing, having to talk a great deal in apy event, and a great deal for notbirg. The delegations from the asveral States have pariors ‘with the mame of the State on the door, The New York hards hove the host quarters—tbree parlors, Nos. 15, 16 acd 17. They form pleasant meetog placer for the dele- gation ard their friends, and the Match striag is always ovt. The Cincinnat? people are very hozpitable, and the Gelegates are showered with courtesi¢s. To auruse then there are various things—pleasant drives in the after ncaa, dinners at Mill Creek, U1 § cobblers, and no dcst. Then, in the evening, there are two theatres and circus, with now and thems concert and wizard 0/ the North (East.) All those things the delegates enjoy, and in the interim they bargain, bore and tntrigev. They have no doubt of the success of any ticket they may nominate; and-per ccnsequence—the efforts to regulate the nomination are tremendous. The fight se‘tlee down to Bushinan end Douglas—and every delegate coants hie vote as wortha fnll mission at least. The Convention meets in a halt in some respects eupe rior to any out of New York, contains fourteen hundred chairs on the ground floor, and about six hunfred seats in the gallery. Ii hasan entrance from Fourth street, but is removed from the noire of a public thor aghfare, In mauking arrangements for the Convention, one-half the cbaira wore removed. Fach celegate was provided with a separate place, with table and stationery. The hall is smaller than that used for the Battimore Convention of 1852, acd an immense rush was made to gsin admittance. The arzangemects were, however, very good. FROM OUR GENERAL NEWS REPORTER.

On one side are men who will admit foreign born citizens among us only on cor dition of serfiom. They would cictate Jaws that power shou’é be heid only by those who bow before some altar witr themselves. They bold that they are only fit for power who approach the Throze of Grace afier the fashion they themeelves preseribe.

I have an abiding confidence that the kindness which summoned me to this p'ace will bear with min the performance of ita duty, and that that kindness will pardon apy errors I unintentionally commit, I now enter upon the discharge of that duty. A motion to admit the celegates from the District of Columbia to the floor was, after debate, laid on the table. It was then announced, amidst great rejoicing, that the cemoovata had elected their candidates for Mayor end Couneilmen in Wash/ngton Ci y. Mr. BayArp, of Del., from the Committee on Creden- tiale, reported on the contested Missouri seat case, ad- mitting the anti-Benton delegates. The report was received with cheers, and adopted. It was announced that the committee were engaged on the New York case, and would report as soon as possible, The committee were allowed to rit during the session of the Convention. A motion to give gallery tickets to outsiders was re- jected. The motion to admit the District of Columbia delegates on the floor was again renewed. Mr. Bavpsy, of Ind., protested against admitting more than two delegates from the District of Columbia. The object of taking the Convention from Baltimcre was to get clear of Congres.ional nfluenc's. He was opposed also to admilting celegates from the District to the gal- lerfes without a limit. Mr. Pent, of Icd., alzo opposed all motions to fll the galleries, even wih ladies, but would certainly rather prefer to ee them filled with beings wearing pantaloons than with betrgs wearing petticoa’s ‘The PResipent declared the motion to lay on the table lost, when a call by States was demanded. The result was—ayes, 159; naye, 91, so the motion prevailed, A lcng and warm debate followed on the admission o° onteiders, and several resolutions having that object in view were tabled amidst the most dire confasion, On motion the Committee of Arrangements was autherized to appoint a Sergeant-at-Arms and two asaist- ants. ‘The Hall of the Young Men's Demccratic Association was offered for the use of the Convention, if the Conven- tion should think ft preferable to the 0, Aninvitation was extended to the Convention to call on the Horticultural Society.

AFTEBNOON SESBION. Upon the re acsembling of ths Convention, WILLARD Sanpssonc, of Delaware, moved that ths Sexvtors and membeis of Congresa at present in the city be invited to occupy pleces upon the platform and floor. He said that tho chazacter of the gentlexen alluded to prevented any suspicion of their endeavoring to exert any undue in- fivence on the Convention. Ories cf “No, no!’!—**Wo don’t want them!’ Revvew Cuarman, of Ala,, moved to amend by inviting all the memb:rs of all the State Legislatures at present ig the city, Mr. Perit, ef Ind., movod to farther amemd by admit- ting also al United S'ates office hoicers, Mr, Sunn, of Ala., thought the Convention had botier invite t).0 pubsic in free (han reserve septs to reoresemta- tatives in Congreer. The support aad countenance of th masses of the cezacazatic party is of mors importance then the favour of Congress and office holders. Mr, MeLaLen, of Va., favored the aloptioa of the re- solution. He thought our Congressmen and Senators were entitled to a seat on the floor. Toe rescietien was dad on the table by a large ma- jority, on the motion of W. W. aeons, of North Caroiina. Im reply to on inquiry, it was wtated that tcoCum- ittes on Resovntions report at 10 o’¢losk to-mor- Tow morning. Mr. Cun», ot Conn., wished, a4 the Convention had no important business to do, that the: m-mbe-a woul? toll theirexperience. (Loud laugher and srive of ‘go on.’’) He was @ representative from Conneestous for Che disiriot of Windbat (Langater.) Covnecticat was one of the immortal States that had stood by South Carciine in the early days of troubie, and atill stood side oy side with ner in demooratio principles. He hoped, as he eali before, that the evening would: be spent in tellingexperience and comparing utes. (Laughter.) ‘The Convention then a¢joarnoi till ten o’cleck to-mor- » tow morning.

The ocmmittees went to work {a the evening; ard thick of the sufferings of niuety-three gentlemen sitting with closed dcors and the thermometer standing at nine- ty! The Credeptial Committee had the hardest time of ul, hearing the Missousi case, The Atchison men accused the Bentonians of free soil proclivities, while the Bentoniaus said there wore elevea “Know Notbings” in the eighteon Atchison delegates. ‘This is the charge mate eguinst the New York hards, who have coven Know Nothings in their delegation. ‘The Missouri question was argued by two persons on each side, on hour each, and the.seaslon of the committee was prolonged till mijnight. ‘The Atobinun delegate being admitted, the New York bar's quoted it as @ favorable precedent; eo Judge Beanivley and ex.Gcvernor Seymour went to work at their tbirty-one victims. Lf ‘ The Convention opered at ten with @ great .dia- cf fans, persplzation and white nea,’ The perma. rent President, Mr. Ward, a gentleman of fino pre- tecce, atid apparently a good parliamentarian, made a peat sgetch, and the Convention settled the Missouri business by admittirg the Atshison man. The demo- oracy then amused itself by cebsting what it would do with the vacant ceats, and a gallant c!é gentieman from Comnecticnt tried to get m p'ace for the laties, wh» are pouting with unsatisfied curiosity. The nutmeg Lovelact was c‘ughed down, and the ladies laid on the table. Mr, Petit, of Indiana, said he would rather a thorssnd times see anything that wore pantaloons in the galleria than anything that wore pettic-ats ‘The debate on the gallery question was not iateresting. The Buchanan men desired that the galleries shoud be thrown open, in orde: that they migit pack them with claquers, The matter was finally passed over, and the Convention tok a recers till four o’clock. ‘The celegates from In‘iaua met this morning and agreec unavimomly to present the name of Benj Fitz patrick, of Alabama, as their unanimous chcice for Vice- Presidert, and thet they inform other delegations of that fact.

New Jersey, Mary'and, Kentucky, Tenuesrec, Lincs, Virginia, Chio, Mirsourl, Arkaneas and Penns: 1- venia, The committee reported that thy sent of the dele. gate from the Fifth d strict af New York was contested jn consequence of soe diapu‘e in referenco to the mode of holding their Convention, and that they had agreed to recommend that bo'h the gen'lemen claimiug to be en- titled to it be admitted to oocupy seats, aad that they cast but one vote, leaving the matter to be desided by tho State Council, There was also some Cifficulty in reference to Pennsylvania, There were understoed to be but tro Gelegates present from that State—Measrs. Hmall and PR. C, Smith—and thelr credentia!s were in the bands of the absent Secretary, they having been presented to that of ficer at the last Council; and the delegates having bean elected to serve for one year from th’s time, thelr names were duly enroled, The PRESIDENT then suggested that it became necesra- ry, in accordance with their consti'm‘ion and ritual, for the pataword to bo now given. The delegates would, therefore, retire to the back portton of the hail, and brothers Alexander and Daneahower wouki commuui- conte the taleszaanic word. Mr. Maxsuatt, of Keutucky, remarked that be had vbought that alt secresy was abandoned; and he, for ons, would be very frank to say that he was opposed to all seeresy, He mate a motion to dispenrs with the pass” word and sentinel, The Praswext decided that an orgenization murt be effected before ary motion was in order, The Committee cn Credentials should now, a5 « part of their business, Incpart *he password, as required by the constitution and ritual of the Order. After that shonld be dono, gen'ie- men would have ax opportuniiy of proposing to diapense with seorery. Mr. Marsuacy thought that as far as the report wae wace the dsiegates reported were now competent to act. The Parswest acquiesce}, but thorght they must first bave the Council regularly organized. ‘The members then retired to the back part of the hall, and being calied, ove by one, they were made acquainted with the password by @ mysterious whisper from the lips of alther of the two brothvou, Afesacder wid Daven" hower, This ceremony conciuded, a motion was made to ad- Journ to 10 o’elock this morning. Mr. DANENHOWER suggeste? that the geatlenen who Stterded ea alternates had not bad the password com- wunicated, and consequently could not obtain admis. sion to-morrow Mr. H, Mansnat1—Well, then, I now renew my motion to Glapense with the password and sentinel. A DELEGATE eubmitted that ia tho absence of those whose seata were contested {t was not prope> to proceed toa vote on this propcsition. It struck him that the matter could not be asted upon till the body was fully or- gaxized, as those whose seats were contested should have & voice in the deliberation of the body. Mr. Mansmatt did not kuow how many cases of son tested reata there were, but it seemed to him that there must be present # very largo mejority of thore who were to attend, and who had already prosented their créden- tials and been admitted. He was opposed to ‘ny further sentinels and mysteries. Tooy had got their candidates in nominsticn, and thet nomins- Vion was mace im an open Convention, They were Presented to the people with an avowed platform of poil- tical principles, and it was high time that all that mya- tery should be thrown behind them. fhe seoresy whish they had at first observed was intended to cover the weakness of infancy; tb: if they were to continue to manceuvre in secresy to: might ag well pull down their flag. He wanted the whole olty of New York to see what the Council did, and he himee'f would like to see what men intended to do, The proposition which he made, he made with the object of letting thelr proccedings go to the fonr winds of heaven—t» the people all ovar the land and of letting the people know what the American party intended. (Applause.) They bad aaffered under noibing so much as under the charg: that there was mystery around their foolateps, snd thatin that mystery was constantly concealed {n- sincerity, He therefore wanted to disabuse the minds of all Americans im the country, and of those who had taken the obligations of Amoricaniam, of the delusion bat they—the American party—would yot droop the wh Ward; the softs by | flog with the name of Mr, * report PRICE TWO CENTs., in, @ribed on it, ‘thaore before tiacir eye, the American par y Were tm for» fight, an! clean Sght of tt. ‘Mr, AlsxsoomR, of Maryland, agresd eutirely with the represen ative of Kentucky, (ie, Marshall.) ‘The only Cifference between them was asto the time whea this Propesition shou'd be acted on.
