THE LATEST NEWS. THE DEMOCRACY IN COUNCIL Proceedinss of the Convention at Syracuse. ‘NOMINATIONS FOR STATE OFFICERS, TOR PLATFORM oF THE DEN CRATIC PARTY, Bes, Ree, &e. SPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE HERALD. Sraxcuas, Bopt. 16, 1858, All interest in the Convention died away with the with- drawal of the anti-Tammanyites. No one, oxcept the Candidates acd their immediate circle of friends, seemed to Care anything about ths further proceedings of tho Con- “vention. Everything was cut and dried, or—as the ex- pression is—was ‘“‘on the giate.”” This slate was made up by Dean Richmond, the Chairman of the State Con- tral Committee, and Peter Oagger, its secretary. I mot Eijjah F. Purdy, the ‘old war horse,”’ this morn- tog, on the piazza of the Syracuse House. He was in exceileat spirits at the defeat of Fernando Wood and the ards, and did not seem to have any further interest in “the Convention, He was going over to the Voorhees House to fine out what Peter Oagger had on the siate, determined “fo give bis adhesion to the programme. The New Yorkers gensrally were of the same equable turn of mind, entirely regardless of who was or was not on the Uoket. They all intended to leave on the first down train, -whother the ticket should bave been first voted or not. ‘The harde did not indulge in any menaces. On the con- (wary, they say they will support the docket, but cannot ‘be expected to work for it with a will. They will not act or vote against it, but will observe a dignified course of far niente, or do-nothingness. Some ipjudicious friends had recommended the holding of an independent convention by the anti-Tammanyites nd tho bards of tho rural districts; but better counsels prevailed, and Wood and his followers contented them- selves with their protest and withdrawal from the Conventios, The protest was not read in the bpdy; bat that was of little consequence, inasmuch as it wil be read throughout the land. A motion ‘to lay it on the tabie was only carried by one vote—42 to 4l—ss many were anxious tc hear its contents. I think that the hards wore a littie fortunate in this vote, for if the vote bad been taken after the reading the charge of unfairness made agsinst the presiding officer would have lod to its being tabled by an almost unanimous vote. The abseace from the Coavention of such shining lights ‘as Coctrane, Rynders, Kelly and Schell has been ac- counted for on the ground that they wanted to avoid fur- ‘ther complications in the Tammany question—a truly sen- sible idea on their part. Fowler and Hart have been busy Working egainst the bards. Th has been raining in torrents all night and morning, Gnd this bed @ further dampening effect on the Conven- tion, which eppears unusually dull and stupid. THE PROCEEDINGS.
