Cuamamon, May 1, 1860, Nearly al) of the Georgia delegation, and the remainder @f the Arkansas delegates, except one vote, seceded this morning. ‘The Kentucky, Nerth Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee and Maryland delegates asked the consent of the Convention this morning to retire for consultation, which was granted. Fifteen out of twenty-seven of the Pennsylvania dele- will go over tf Douglas be nominated. ‘Hie New York delegation voted tn caucus this morning for a candidate, with the following result —Dongias, 87, ‘out of the 70 delegates ; Dickinson, 20; Guthrie, 10; Hun- ter, 2; Breckinridge, 1—which last vote was given by apt. Rynders. Thug Douglas has a bare majority. Spinola, Molavghiin and Peck, of Brooklyn, were expected to vote for Dickinson, a some of those gentlemen promised to do eo. Dean Richmond, Cagger & Co. voted for Douglas, and Joba Lochrane for Guthrie. Orosweli ebarged Richmond ‘and the restof the Regency with violation of faith in not ‘veting for Dickinson, and produced letters to prove it. John Cochrane and others will joi the South if two or three more Southern delegations secede. A proposition haa been made in caucus to adjourn the first Convention to New York or Philadelphia without meking any nomination, and meantime referring the ‘whole question to the people. Bat this ts not likely to prevail. Doaglas will probably get the nomination. His friends fay it will be consammated to-day. A confidential agent of Douglas says that the section of the republicans rep- resented by the Fribunc, and Blair, of Silver Springs, of- orth. But this is more easily said than done. The other side say bé cannot carry a single State in the Union. ‘The friends of Douglas propose to submit the following resolution to the Convention after his nomination.

OUR SPECIAL WASHINGTON DESPATCH. Wasumoron, May 1, 1860. 1 learn from high authority that efforts are now making to induce the Baltimore Convention, on the 0th of May, to nominate Mr. Douglas. It is stated by gentlemen who profess to know, that many of the delegetes already elect- ed 10 this Convention are known to be Douglas democrats’ ‘This Know Nothing “ dodge” will have a wonderful effect lp favor of the “ Little Giant” in the Irish and German districts in the North and West, The Catholics, whose support it is anid Douglas expects, may have something to nay on the subject. It js said that Mr. Corcoran, the banker, of this city, did ‘not go to Charleston, and has not opposed Mr. Douglas’ pomination. ‘The editor of the Star says Gen. Lane has telegrapned the delegation from Oregon to withdraw from the Conven- Mon, and thet Mr. Hunter has similarly advised the Vir- Finis delegation, PROCEEDINGS OF THE REGULARS’ VENTION. (Cuamiastos, May 1, 1860. ‘The floor and north gallery of the hal) were jiterally aundased with ladies, and the south and weet galleries massed with spectators. ‘The Preatdent's table was lined with bouquets. ‘The cate of the seceding delegates were filed with ‘Booth Carolina ladies. ‘The Georgia, Virginia and North Carolina delegates were in thelr seats, ‘The Convention was called to order © prayer for union and harmony was CON- UE pest too, and Ad by Rev. Mr. Mr. Rickanneos, of “bie, inquired what was the ‘Duninens in order’ ‘The Pursrpant stated that three separate motions to reconaider the platform resolutions were pending st the time of adjournment yesterday, and that Mr. Merrick, of ‘Titmols, was entitled to the floor. WITHDRAWAL OF THE GRORGLA DELEGATION. Mr. Baxeixc, of Georgia, rose to privileged question, stating that the Georgia delegation had been im anxi vas consu) at on and passed & series of resolations, the first of which Instructed the Chairman of the delegation to iaform the President of the Convention that they could no longer pasticipate in the proceediags of this Convention, He addea that they would now withdraw. ‘The resolation was signed by twenty four delegates. Four more delegates subsequently retired with them, on the ground that they felt compelled to act with the me jority. Eight other delegates remain in the Convention. WITHDRAWAL OF ARKANSAR. ‘The ‘elegater from Arkanaan then presented their pro- test and withdrew. Mr Exwinc, of Tennessee, asked leave for that deiegs- tion to retire for conmwitation ‘Mr. Waramm, of Virginia, asked Jeave for that delega- thon to retire for the yurpore of conmuitation with some of ‘the retiring delagates of the f mtb. A portion of the Maryland delegation asked jeave to re- tire for compu)tasion. A portion of he Kentucky delegation annosaced that they bad no desire to retire. ‘The North Carolina delegation asked leave 1» retire for consultation. Mr. Oommen, of Georgie, one of the remaining delegetes, proceeded to address the Convention. From early mso- Rood be had been in the fromt remake of those who had Deen foremost of the extremist sect of the State rights echos!. The majority of his associates hai retired. Be bad been induced to remain here in the hope that tbe up of conciliation may mot be dashed to the earth ‘Whilst he was with those who retired in sentiment, ho hed-chosen to remain and make an effort for posce nod ‘union. There was no division of sentiment at the South, amd there never had been any division, except as aqaes- don of time. The South is earnest. He could sce in thie @:vision apd distraction of the democratic party « ripple hat would swell to « wave and carry to the Presidential ! Prepared to leave, let themgo. They have all made up he was not prepared to disintegrate the democratic party. It ie no trouble for aman to be asaint in Heaven, but when 1 look to the Northern democrats and see them standing up to breast the storm of fanaticism I love them: ‘and will stand by them until the last day of this week late in the night. He was got willing to oast them into the arms of the black republicans. The African slave trader is the true philanthropist. He brings the heathen here to civilize him, and sende him down the stream of time a Christian being. The slave trader of Virginia au- ‘hortzes the sale of the Christian man, and the separation of the husband and wife, yet rolls up his eyes at the man who brings the heathen here to enjoy the blessings of civilization. ‘Mr. Rezp, of Ipdiana, you on that subject. Capt. Ryxoxgs—You will soon have some recruits from the New York biack republicans. Mr. Gat.acuen, of Connecticut, contended that the gea- teman hao no right w slander the representatives of Con- necticut and the North. ‘Mr. Bovtpan said he remained here because he had great faith in the Northern democracy. He intended to hold cn to the democratic party of the North until the last horn blows. He cautioned the seceders that if they suc- coeded by their action in breaking up the democratic party they would weaken the bonis of the Union. He was no disunioniet. He loved the Union and intended to stand by it tothe end. Most of the seceding delegates were on te floor and Mr. Boulden lashed them with great severity. Mr. McCook, of Ohio, offered a resolution Gixiog two o'clock to day for balloting for President and Vice Prosi- dent. Mr. Rarvzrrr, of New Jersey, presented a protest signed dy @ pert of the delegation from that State agsinst the ction of the Convemtion in anaalling the instructions to the delegates from that State to voto as a unit. ‘The Pusupast decided that votes cold pot be taken 80 long as several States were absent coneaiting. The mo (thon to fix the hour for proceediug to ballot must there fore lay over. Mr. Brows, of California, said the delegation hed viewed in sorrow the procee tings of the pasttwo days. He then proceeded to explain the position of the demoora- tc party of California. ‘Mr. Averm Surru, of California, denied the authority of any one to speak for him, or seven eighths of his delege- tion. He styled Mr. Bidwell as » black sheep, and North. ern democrats, he asserted, were trickling to the same Side of the question. Mr. Bocuwn continued to speak of the Southern slave trade in Virginia. He would like the members of the Convention to come down to Georgia with him, and be ‘would show them some slaves he had bought in Mary. land, some in Virginia, seme in North Carolias, and some im Georgia; but be would show them some direct from Africa, and they were the noblest Fomans of them ail. ‘Therefore he believed the slave trader the noblest of taid:—Here is one who is with philanthropists and the most Christian civilizer in the world, He loved the democrats of the North, and held them in higher estimation than the parlor democrats of the South. Mr. Suwanp, of Georgia, as one of the delegation that remained, made an explanation. He was in Congress when the Kansas bill passed, and would assert that the agreement between the North and South then was that the copastitutiona) question should be deteruimed by the court, and that both would abide by that decision. ‘WITHDRAWAL OF GoRGL. ‘The remainder of the Georgia delegations demanded the right to cast the fall State vote on the question of ad fourmment. The Paxspest decided that they were not entitled to toro. AD appeal was taken, but the deciaion was sustained. Georgia then withdrew altogether. A¢journed til] five o'clock. EVENING SEASION.

No action, however, should be taken by the seceding delegates until the proper time arrived. Mr. Barann, of Delaware, did not regard the inflaence that overruled principle in the National Convention so much as the spirit of black republicanism that existed there for power and plunder—the corruption and bargains of a general scramble for office. He was very severe on the New York soft ahell delegation, who came here, he said, professing « desire to join in such a nomination as would suit the South, but just so soon as they were given their seats they turned their backs upon ‘the South. He trusted that other States would withdraw from the Comyention, and that it would be utterly dia- solved. He did not consider that the seceders had the power to make regular nominations, but he would recom. mend, if it should be found necessary, that they should Join In the recommendation of some suitable candidates, ‘with ® written address to thei r constituents. ‘we eee if, instead of eight States, we do not tomorrow number fifteen, and perhaps seventeen States.
