Syracuse, Sept. 5, 1861. ‘The Regency wixnagers were moving aboat until a inte hour this morning, working for a reconsideration. Rich. Mow! was never known to be in such an excited:condi- ‘tion, The cry was everywhere raised that the admit- ‘tace of Mozart was “tie endorsement of the Duily News ‘and Bon, Weed’s anti-war policy. Upon this mostef the Western delegates were frightened, whe declered that they couki mot go heme with that load. Even a strong war platform would not save them with this cry. The Regency svere -at “work, apparently securing numerous changes. The Mozarters,on the other hand, were not idle, and were sar guine that they checkmated the Regen- cy atew-ry step, Many of the delegutes were somewhat surpriced tosses the name of Ben, Wood appear on the official ‘ist this morning, in ‘the place of Gilbott Dean, “Everything indicated a stormy time. As*soon as ‘he Convention assembled, ‘the partisans on doth kides were on hand, prepared to take part in thexontest. As soon as the Convention was called to order; tho'motion was made to reconsider the yote of yesrorday , then the bear dance fairly opened. Kr. McMasters rose to debate. He wus called to order, and*halfa dozen points raised on @ifferent questions. Finally the Chair decided that neither of the New York viegations had a right to speak or vote on the question, Aasappea! was taken,and a spicy discussion followed. ‘The Chair was sustained in his decision by a yote of 142 ‘40 62. Several votes were taken on minor questions; but, “finally; reaching the motion to reconsider, it was carried. Then ceme the question voted upon yesterday, and the ex- seitoment run at fever heat, amid Pabel-like confusion? appeals for Question,” “Put him out,” “Down on the gag law,” “Tam a democrat,” and such like declarations, An appeal from Mr. Kierman finally brought order out of Chaos, and the vote was taken on the admittance of both New York delegations. Mozart and the resolutions were yoted down, and Tammany admitted into full com- Mmunion, the Regency slate again repaired, and the pro- gramme originally Jaid out in a fair way of being carried ut to the last. Richmond, Cagger and company are in their glory, Mozart afflicted with the blues, aud Tammany on a grand spree. Mozart immediately withdrew upon the announcement of the result, and, adopting the programme of Tammany, Went out to consult. The enormous change in the votes since yesterday was the direct result of the per- sonal eilorts of Richmond, Cagger aud company, and Tam many owes its recognition to them, Among the changes that have taken place among the outsiders I have to announce that of Gideon Tucker. He has left Wood, and has gone back to the Regency, re- pented of his sing, apd will now take a front pew in that church. “These are revolutionary times While the wraugle was going on in the Convention this morning over Mozart, the Tammany delegation was in 8, and drew up a protest, to be ready if the Conven. tion adhered tots platform ‘of yesterday. The tables being turned, this was a waste of time. Mozart being ruled out, they immediately assembled in caucus, byt without doing anything adjourned to New York, there to draw up their p ‘Wood and his aid- de-camps left at two P.

All of these were stricken out by the commitice, showing at feast. symptoms of returning common sense, With this important and radical change, with sev other yerbal changes, making the resolutions more w: Tike, they reported to the Convention, deciaring that they had corrected typographical errors. Before the committee made their report Mr. Ogden maitea short speech, in which he treated the war in a prac. tical manner, declaring that the issue simply is, and the ‘only one whic sented jigelf now, whether the overn ment should be overthrown and our’ liberties destroyed, or the rebellion be put down, and that question could only be answered’ by a resort to arms, ‘There was no neutral or ‘middie ground for the democracy to occupy ; they should rally to the support of the government to put down this wicked rebellion.

The ba of the platform may be considered as good as could have been obtained ina Convention with men so strc disagreeing on a portion of the subjects treated fa the solutions as was known to exist in the Conven- om. The democracy having now put forth their platform and nd “announced themselves in’ readiness to go before the people, let us patiently await the result of the Union gathering here on the 10th and the Republican Cor vention on the 11th of this month, to see if they offer anything better for the suppression of the monsier re. Deliion and the restoration of peace to our distracted sountry PROCEEDINGS OF THE CONVENTION. Synaccsk, N. Y., Sept. 5, 1861. ‘The Dernocratic State Convention reassembled at nine seiclock this morning, but was not called to order until an dbonr Jater, tho interval being speat in busy lobbying among the delegates in relation to the Movart. Hall and Tag:many quarrel. Immediately upon the President calling the Conyention toctder, Mec Laruam,of Outario, took the floor, and said thet as there seomed to haye been » misunderstanding in reg to the vote cast yesterday in relation to Uke contostin: Asioganions from Yew York, in order that all might have anoppertunity lo vote again on the question, he offered the follewing resolution: — Hesalwed, That the vor Convention, at its mectii Tawoansy and Mozart Hall Conventivn be, and the same%s hereby reconsidered. Mr. Bexsamin Ray (Mozart Hull) rose tw & point of or- der. The rules of the last Assembly were adopted yeeter- wiay for the guidance of this body. By those rulog the first business iu order must be the reading of the journal of yesterday. Mr. LANiNG rose to a point of order. The gentlorman from: New York (Mr. Ray) is not entitled to be heard or to vote ander this motion to reconsider, which is really to dociés whether he is entitled to a seat on this floor. Mr, AlcMasrens, editor of the New York Freeman’, Journal, claimed the right to be heard. the resolution by the Gnitting both the to seate ja this Ry the action of the Conyertion yesterday, be was entiticd toa scat oa thie floor, If he was not a dolegate now and entitled to h “aghere could be nothing to recousider.

Mr. Luppincron inquired if every member of the Con- vention did not Ser equal rights on thisquestion. If 80, then the New York delegates were as much entitled to votes as he and his colleague, the Mr. Tange insisted on the point of order ‘“ reading of the journal of yesterday's proceedings is in | order before any other business ia transacted.” ‘Tho Presipgyt—There is now no question before the Convention but the appeal from the decision of Uae Chair. Mr. Spriges haa confidence in the honesty of the dec!- sion made by tho Chair, but he believed that it was er- roneous. The Convention had recognized the Mozart Hall and Tammany delegations as members of thy Convention, and the Tammany delegation, as such members of the Grvension, had asked Jeave to withdrav, for consulta- tion. Mr. Lantna rose toa point of order. ‘The gentleman from Oncida was discussing the merit; of the question, and not the matter of appeal. Mr, Srrices—] am discussing the question in order. The question is, whether the Convention ghall be disturbed by reopening the question which was settled yesterday. Lacs arpaen) He did not believe that the one hun- dred en mek who voted yes‘erday to sustain the mi- nority rey were ready now 6, go down into their boots at the bidding of afew leaders. If they are ready to do 80, the Convention desires te V.now who they are. Mr. Laxtyo—The question 1g on tho right of the New York delegates to vote or speak on a question relating to their right to seats in the‘Convention. Mr. StenaGs understood the question to be whether the Chair decided correctly when it ruled that Mr. MoMasters, of the Mozart delegation, was not a member on this floor, and eptitied to alltke rights of the members. He reminded the Chair that after the action of the Conven- tionyesterday he appointed two members of the Tam- delegation on the Committee on Resolutions. Why did he do so if they were not regularly admitted as mora- bers of the Conveution? Mr. McMasrexs said he had desired the reading of the journal of yesterday's proceedings for the express pur- pose of showing the Convention how it was stultifying itself by its proposed action to-day. A DrtxcaTe—The question is whether you are entitled to speak, and you are speaking all the time. (Laughter.) Hon. 8. E. Civren said the question had not been fairly stated by the gentieman from Oneida (Mr. Spriggs). The juestion was not, as he had said, whether the New York legates were members of the Convention, and entitled to vote and to speak, but only whether they had the right to speak and yote on this one question relating to the right to a seat in the Convention. (Applause.) ‘The question was then put on the appeal from ‘the de- cision of the Chair, ruling that the New York delegates ‘were not entitled to speak or vote on this question, and the Chair was sustained by a vote of 142 ayes, against 62 pays ‘The result was received with applause from the friends of Tammany. Mr. LuppiNGTon rose to a point of order. “The question now before the House was to reconsider the vote on the resolution adopted yesterday, admitting both sets of delegates from New York. He read the rules to show that when a matter had gone out of tho possession of the body,a motion to reconsider was not in order. (Applause. ) A DetecaTs—What rule do you read from? Mr. Luppincrox—The Senate rule. The Presinent—The Convention is governed by the rules of the Assembly. (Loud laughter.) Mr. Kernan—The rule of the Assembly is that a mo- tion to reconsider is in order on the same or on the next Parliamentary day to its adoption. Mr. Luppixncroxy—As the gentleman was a member of the last Assembly he probably knows better than Ido, (Laughter.) Mr. Tnaykr, of Wyoming, moved the previous question on the motion to reconsider yesterday’s vote Mr. D. Mouttox, of Oneida, moved to lay the previous question on the table. Loud desultory discussion on points of order sprang up, and the Convention was for some time in much confusion. At last, under a call for the yeas and nays, the Convention refused to lay the subject on the table by @ voto of yeas 91, nays 112. f ‘The question being on ordering the main question, Mr. McMasrers begged the indulgence of the Convention while he said a few words, and he should be ready to stop at oy moment should his remarks prove offensive to any lelegate. The Convention refused to consent, and the main ques- tion was ordered. 8 being ordered the resolution to re- yesterday's action was adopted. Yoas 114, ‘The question then recurring on the substitute offered yesterday for the report of the Committee on Credentials Admitting both the Mozart and Tammany delegates, a long and animated discussion ensued on points of order, which became considerably mixed up before any disen’ tanglement coukl be reached, Tn the midst of the most intense excitement, the pre- vious’ question was demanded, when Mr. Sriuacs, of Oneida, moved to lay the previous question on the tabla. ‘This was put toa vote and declared carried, when tho friends of Mozart Hall rose, giving tremendous cheers. The Tammany delegates, in disinay , demanded the yeas and nays, the effect of the decision being to lay the whole subject on the table, and exclude both delegations. Mr. Bewsasiw Raw (Mozart Hall) demanded the right to be heard, Whether a delegate or not, he called upon the Convention to abide by its own vote and the decision of the Chair. Cries of You're out of order; turn him out.’” Mr. Ray—I defy any porson to turn me out. Mr. Srriccs moved to lay the call for the previous quee- tion on the table, and calied for the yeas and nays on the motion, A Deicats—Which hand does the gentleman from Oneida bold the olive branch in? Mr. Spriccs—In both hands, I hold out the ‘olive branch” here and elsewhere, and will never draw the sword without it. (Loud cheers.) Twould ask the ma- Jority, who seem so eager to endorse all the acts of the republican administration, if they reject the “olive branch? (Loud cheers.) After another lengthy and heated discussion, Mr. Krawan, of Oneida, spoke warmly in favor of coming to a dircet vote on this question, appealing to delegates to cease this strife and to come hb Vy up and yote directly according to their consciencious belief, on the merits of the question. His remarks were loudly applauded. The Convention then orderéd the main queetion, and the vote was taken on the substitute offered yesterday, admitting both the delegations from New York, and it was lost by ayes 85, nays 120. ‘The original report of the Committee, admitting Tam- many, was then adopted without calling for the yeas and nays. On the announcement of the result, Mr. Gener, of New York, on the part of the Mozart Hall delegation, rose and entered a protest against the rejection of the representa- tives of thirty-three thousand democratic voters of the city of New York. ‘The Mozart Hall delegation then withdrew from the Convention. Recess till two o'clock. AFTERNOON SESSION. ‘The Convention reassembled at two o'clock. In the absence of the Committee on Resolutions, Darius B. Ogden addressed the Convention in an earnest appeal to the democracy to rally now, as they have done, around the Stars and Stripes, in'support of the Union. He held that secession was rebellion and treason of the highest grade, We must overcome this rebellion by all the power that God has given us, as loyal men. We must put it down by peace, if we can; but if we cannot, are we to submit” to rebellion No. If we find no olive branch we must proceed to put down treason and rebellion, and water the earth with our blood, until the tree springs forth on which shall grow the olive branch. (Tremendous appiause.) The rebellion must be put down, or the government under which we have lived for eighty years will be put down. In his judgment we must have more fighting before we can secure the great boon of peace. (Loud cheers.) He would have this re- bellion crushed out, and then he would guarantee to the South all her constitutional rights. (Immense applause.) We can offer no better ground of peace to the secession- ists than the constitution, and if we properly enforce that beach it is all they have a right toask. (Loud cheers. THE PLATFORM. Hon 8. FE. Church, from the Committee on Resotutions, reported the resolutions as follows:— Resolved, That in this crisis the watchword which should 8 through the demoeratic ranks cal! them together and ting them in one erect and determined mass in de- uur impertiled country is the sentiment of Andrew , that * The Union must and shall be preserved.” ed, That the claim of any State or number of States of a right to relinquish at will their obligations and ale. xiance to the Union has no warrant in the constitntion—is at war with its letter and spirit—is incompatible with good go- vernment and the preservation of the public faith and the enforcement of the treaties, and whenever this pretension has been advanced by secessioniste North or South, it has been resisted and defeated by the dem who have ever maintained, as they still do, that secession is revolution, Resolved, That the seizure of ‘the forts and property be- longing to the federal government, followed by the autho- rization of privateers against the commerce of the loyal States, precipitated the country Into a state of war; that itis the duty of the government to prosecute the war thus forced upon it'with all its power and resources, and that it is the uty of the people to rally with arms and, aneans to the sup of the government, until the struggle is ended by t triumph of the constitution and laws, and the restoration of nion, Resolved, That we hold next in guilt to the faction which has risen in arms against the country the politicians of the North, who for years have organized and sustained a system of agitation tending and intending to alienate the different sections of the country, and to stir up between them an “irne- pressible conflict,” based upon thelr domestic Institutions, whieh, it was declared, could only terminate in the universal, predominance of one section or the other, Resolved, That to the infatuation of the same class of poli- Liciane we can trace the threatening proportions which this “civil war” has assumed and the arated have at- tended it.

For himself he had come to the conclusion that the Union can never be preserved by the subjugation of the South, 4g contemplated by the republican party. Tho policy of Andrew Jackson had been to put down ‘nullification and secession with the sword, but to make at the same time the most liberal offers of peace. This policy he desired to maintain now, and he offered the following substitute for the third resolution:— Resolved, That while we recognise the necessity for a vigor- ous prosectition. of the war In which (he country ts most ut: happily engaged, until it can be ended consistently with the preservation of ‘all the States, we insist that ite prosecution ‘should be accompanied by the most liberal proffera of peace. ) In no other course do we see any hope of @ termination of the war and preservation of the Union, Mr. Thayer, of Wyoming, opposed the amendment. He reviewed the action of Southern mon, and declared they had brought on this wicked war by a deliberate plot. It was for this they broke up the demoeratie party. He Was opposed to any offers of peace. Let us offer them rather the mouth of the cannon. We were a peace party before the war, For God’s sake let us not be a peace party in the war. (Loud applause.) Mr. Taytox would not yicld to any man in condemnation of the course of the South, but there were others than se- cessionists at the South, as there were others than «boli- tionists at the North. It was for their sake he would adopt the spirit of Warhington’s Address, and for the sake of our beloved country he would offer peace while prosecuting the war. (Loud applause.) the seces- sionists and abolitionists could get together and fight this battle without disturbing the rest of the world, he would be willing they should do so even to the end at. tained by the famous “Kilkenny cats.’? (Applause.) When we meta foreign enemy in battle we sent a peace commissioner in advance of the army. Let us not do Jess with our own countrymen. Mr. Kieknan thought the sixth resolution went fa enough in the offer of peace. Tho democracy love the memory of Jacksen, and could any man doubt that he would have held out the sword boldly against those who were openly in arms for the overthrow of the govern- ment? We are now dealing not with Union men, but with armed traitors, He would go as far ag any man to secure an honorable peace; but when gentlemen talk of the Union men of the South let them remember that these men—the gallant sons of Kentucky—ask us to put down treason with arms, He was ready to do so, although he ‘was willing to call & national convention, a8 soon as men would return to their allegiance under the coustitution. (Applause CitanLes S$. Macomusr, of Erie, made an eloquent speech in support of the original resolution, and in fayor of a vigorous prosecution of the war for’ the preservation of the Uniop. He would let a proclamation go forth to the people of the South, assuring them that if they will re- turn to their allegiance, they shall be protected in all their constitutional rights, but if they reject these offers of peace, then he would prosecute the war for the pro- tection of the government until treason was put down, although the streams and rivers of the land should run red with blood. Psi amendment was lost and the third resolution adoptod. Lit Brown, of Jefferson, moved to amend the fourth resolution by declaring the’ agitators of the North equal in guilt to the secessionists of the South, instead of next to them in guilt. Lost, and the resolution was adopted as reported by the committee. Mr. ArmsrronG, of Queens, offered a long substitute for bd ey resolution, which was lost and the resolution opted. Arruaxad Loomis moved to restore the resolution ex- punged in the committee's report, protesting against a sus- pension of the habeas corpus, the passport system, the State police system, the suppression of freo discussion in the press, and the doctrine that the States derive their authori- ty from the federal government. He maintained that the resolution embodied the true principles of democracy, and he was not willing to see these principles violated by an administration wiihout recording the protest of the de- mocracy against it. A. P. LaxinG, of Erie, spoke against the motion. He held it to be the duty of all good men not to embarrass the government in @ crisis like this. For himsolf ho would rather that the President, who is liable to impeach- ment if he violates the constitution, should take his own course and act on his own responsibility in such a crisis as this, than that bold rebellion should destroy this gov- ernment. He made an eloquent appeal to all democrats to strengthen the hands of the administration until this danger shall have passed away and the governient of the country is re-established in all its strength, Mr. Kennan hoped the Convention in their patriotic desire to strengthen the hands of the government would not forgot that the government is made for the protection of the governed. (Loud applause.) The resolution could not be objectionable to ay fair minded man. The habeas corpus 6 a sacred right which should be sacredly guarded, We acknowledge the right of the administration to pro- claim martial law where nocessary, but we deny the right of the government to seize upon a citizen and in- careerate him without giving him an opportunity to know the charges against him, and to hurry him off to a bastile without triabor examination. We do not deny the right of the administration to suppress treasonable publica- tions, but we do deny its right to refuso to transmit papers through the maiis for the offence only of canyass- ing the measures of the administration. We do deny the right of the administration to empower any commu- nity on the complaint of perhaps an enemy, to suppress & newspaper and to destroy a citizen’s property. (Loud applause, ‘The ninth resolution was then unanimously adopted, amidst loud applause and much enthusiasm. ‘The whole series of resolutions were then adopted, and loud cheers given for tye platform. Mr. Ceyirr, of Wayne, then moved to take up the nomina- tion of candidates, and that Hon. David R. Floyd Jones be unanimously nominated for the office of Secretary of State. (Loud applause.) Mr. Kiernan heartily seconded the nomination, and hoped if the people were in favor of honoet men for office they would unanimously elect Mr. Jones. (Applanse.) When our brave volunteers were flocking to the war, in the-midst of the embarrassments thrown in their way by some members of the State Military Board and by the shoddy contractors, David R. Floyd Jones stood up in their defence, and they all bore testimony to his patriot- iam and his generosity. (Loud cheers.) Hon. David R. Floyd Jones was then nominated by ac- clamation, amid foud and enthusiastic cheers. Mr. McCanrtuy, of Onondaga, then nominated the Hon. George F. Comstock for Judge of the Court of Appeais, and the nomination was made by acclamation. The Convention then proceeded to nominate a candidate fer Comptroller by a viva voce vote. ‘Mr. Carsicorr nominated William M. Parks, of Kings. Mr. PARKER nominated D. B. St, John, of Orange. Mr. Laxixg named Hon. George F. Scott, of Saratoga. The first ballot resulted for Scott, 150; Parks, 54; St. John, 9. Judge Scott was declared unanimously nominated amid loud applause. Mr. Lorp said that a short time ago, when the Conven- tion was hesitating as to their duty on an important ques- tion, they heard words of wisdom and of fire from one member which had awakened them to a sense of the right. That man was Francis Kiernan, of Utica. He moved his ‘unanimous nomination for the office of Attorney General. loud applause.) ‘The motion was unanimously carried. Mr. KikRNax rose and was proceeding to decline, when Mr. Luddington raised the point of order, that he was a party in interest, and could not be heard. (Loud laughter.) Mr. Kizrnan proceeded to urge his private business as n insurmountable barrier to his acceptance of the office under any circumstances. He should be compelled to de- cline throug the press, and ke therefore begged the Con- vention to accept his declination now, and allow him to nominate Lyman Tremaine, of Albany. Applause.) Mr. Tremaine was then unanimously nominated as At- torney Genoral. Mr. LaxinG, of Erie, moved that Francis C. Brouck, of Erie, be unanimously nominated for Treasurer, The mo- tion was carried by acclamation, The Convention then proceeded to nominate a candidate for Canal Commissioner for the long term, for the Eastern. division, James B. Lord, of Monroe, was put in nomination, and Mr. Darcy, of Kitigs, nominated Jarues Brady, of Albany. Mr. Lord was nominated on the first ballot, and his nomination declared unanimons. Mr. Luppincroy moved that W. W. Wright, of Ontario, be unanimously nominated for Canal Commissioner for the short term. The motion was unanimously adopted. Senator Coxxorty, with a few appropriate remarks, nominated William C. Rhodes, of New York, for State Prison Inspector. ‘Mr. KieRwan named John Grifiths, of Oneida. Mr. McCarty nominated D. J.

It is with pleasure that I relate a few things to you which I trust will meet with a careful perusal. ln your Journal of the 4th inst. I saw a paragraph from the Secre tary of the Navy praising our Commoddre and officers and sailors, for tho braveness thereof. We did ull toa man stand by our guns till the Stars and Stripes floated where the rebel flag once stood, and when we returned to this port with the prisoners of one of the chiefest forts of North Carolina, and the Southern States also, we expected in honor of that victory which our crew claims a share of, to have the privilege of a leave of absence of twgnty-four hours at the least, asthe crew on board have wives, parents, brothers and sisters. Would it not be, dear Herat, an onor to tho cause to give those men on board of our noble ship liberty to see thosé near and doar to them? Our officers on board suit their own plea- sure in going ashore, and have we not the friends on shore who feel for us ag well as they who are our supe riors in rauk? We have here as true frieuds to the flag that floats to the mizén and God as our beloved country needs. [hope and trust that these few lines will meet our Commodore's aud Captain’s eye, and may they both bo influenced by thenr to give the noble crew of the flagship Minnesota a privilege of meeting around the family table thoge wives and friends that ave dear to them. ON BEHALF OF THE CREW OF THE MINNESOTA. Naval New: Cammripce, 6, steam gunboat, Commander Parker, sailed on Wednesday morning from the Charlestown Navy: Yard, to join the blockading squadron. A great number of changes haye becn made in her officers. The following is a correct list :-— Commander—William A. Parker. Lieutenant and Executive Oficer—Wiliam Gwin, ‘Acting Masters—Mcssrs. Eldridge, Very and Strong. Assisiant Paymaster—J. C. Canning. Assistant Surgem—H. A. Richardson. First Assistani Engincer—Frank A. Bremen. Second Assistant Engineer—Charles Pennington. Third Assistant Engsneers—Jolu Steiger and Jas. Powers. ‘Acting Gunner—Ferguson. ‘Acting Wilson. Master's Maier—Messrs. Othewell, Willis, Odiorne and v General Planas and Not Lana of the Spanish Army. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. ‘There is no such person as General Lana in the Spanish army. Mr. Russell meant General Planas, late “Segundo Cabo” of the army in Cuba, an efficient officer and a thorough literary man, The letter inthe Diario dela Marina which you attribute to him, may possibly have been written by him or by somebody else who chose to express his vtews in the Diario concerning the army ofthe North. In the last paragraph your translation does not convey the exact meaning of the original. It should be understood that the writer of the letter purposod visiting the Falls of Niagara, Thence he would start to see the “bridge which the English have built across the St. Lawronce (Victoria Bridge). On the Sth he would leave Pweg ‘and reach Quebec to sail on the 6th for Europe. ie dates alone would explain the sense of the paragraph. As you have it any one might think that Victoria Bridge is on the Niagara Falls, and little credit you give to General Planas, for knowledge of geography, whereas he is known as a fine scholar, and of course it {s presumable that geography was not neglected in his early education, Sr. Prince Napoleon kind suite arrived here at seven o'clock this eveniig and took rooms at the Planters’ Hotel. & mititary escort was provided by General Fremont to at- tend the Prince from the depot to his quarters on the ar- rival of the regular train, at half-past eight o’elock. The escort waited on the levee till nine o’clock, when it was ascertained that the Prince and suite bad quietly entered the city two hours previously. Fire in Bosto: Boston, Sept. 4, 1861.
