A crowded and bighly intelligent audience attended fhe assembling of the Southern Convention to-day. The Con vention iteell is a remarkable body, aud its sppoarance and character are everywhere praised. The bold face of Goy. Ham. {lton contrasts prominently among tbe delegates; and his speech, later 1n the day, is select and deliberate. Judge Pas- cbal und Judge Bherwood sit with their fellow-delegates from Texas—both wen of unususl experience and force. The slim figure and keen, impassive face of Suffold of Alabama inteest- cbservers as he rises to declive bis nomination for Secretary fu s Spartan speach, One of the delegates looks not unlike Andrew Jobnson, and i s “fierce Radical” Hunvicut, Ed. itor of The Richmond New South, sud ove of the cldest and beartiest workers for progress in bis section, weets with deserved covsideration. Fletcher, Secretary of State to Gov. Brownlow, takes rank with the Jlarge wajority of positive men. Col. Moss, of the St. Louis press—one of tbe characters of the Comveution, sod oneofthe “epirits of the wild West "’ in the campaign for Fremont, sits among the ** cut-and-oute " of the Missouri dele- gation, of which Gov. Fletcher is the chief and most etriking countensuce, Goy. Boreman speaks for West Virginia 1o & rapid and energetic way. Judge Usderwood ie here, but pot as a delegate and looks like the traditional Abolitionist Horsce Maynard's Iudion face ond figure, and Col Stakes'e aseuring countenance rise iuto relief on one or two occasions, ameron has come in at the back of the ball and is courteously received. Thomas J. Durent opens the meeting in o calm and etreighiforward manner, and it is uot long before the Conven- vention is ready to proceed directly to busiuess. Meauwbile “Ben. Batler sud Beas Wade" enter the room smid s uprosr of cheers, aod a resolution to jnvite “the grand old Deroes” to o place on the platform is carried gnanimously. Gen. Geary has aleo arrived, and ro- ceives an equal ovation, after being builed as tbe next Governor of Penpeylvaia. Gov. Gen. Bornside's stout, tall figure and noble Gounténance s a geaial signsl for anotber joyful maui- | festation. The storm of approval reaches its hight when Speed of Keotucky is anncunced for permavent chairman, all the delegates rising to their feet and applaudiog vocifer- ously for minuted. John Minor Botte. the dogmatically loye; | Virginian, carries bis farmer-like figure, like & bauner, to take | place on toe platform with the Vice Presidents, smid aotter | demonstration, Pease of ‘Texas, auotier loyalist, follows. Brownlow of Tenuessee is announced on the platform, to great appro The Rev. Hope Bain of Golds- | borough, N. C., & venerable man, whose sentimente bave made bim simost & parial in bis section, aud who has made o long Journey here solely impelled by bis earnest devotion to the cause, s propesiy recoguized on the list of Vice Presidents. The speech of Mr. Epeed is very distinctly apoken, and is | well recetved. Every allusion to “justice,” “liberty” eod + equal rights” is received especlally with goreserved demon- stration. At oue time the Convention was on Lbe point of ris- | ing to ite feet to cheer & passage in his speech. Ilis conneel that the Convention declare its whole copvietion iz a frauk’ traternal aad liberal epirit, was generally sstisfactory; and when be called attention to the fact that the Baltimore Coa- vention had declared tbat Slavery sbould be extirpated (laying great stress on the word, aad explainisg its full wesning), the wpplause which broke out was great. The course of the Convention thus far might bave been al' most exsetly predicted. The feeling on all watters that admit of being Radical and Liberal et the same time soems 10 be | they positive, fearless ard uncompromising. The motion o submit all resolves to the Committee, witbout debate, failed sigaaly from ite latter clacse, Gov, Hamilton, Judge others opposing avything that would look like the muzeling of discussion. The Cozventloniste skow no dieposision to enter into unnecessary debate, monial disguises. This objection was replied to spolo- getically by the BorderBtste mes, Who deeire bharwony, but are mot willing to scoept sll conclusions on the subject of Suffrage. The best evidence of the strong sentiment of the Convention was the reception of the resolo- tions testifying belief in the doctrine of impartial suffrage, snd Justice at all times to the black man. A Loulsiana speaker ‘snnoaneed with impassioned energy that the wen of bis State were pledged tothat platform, ssd could not afford to go behind, All the Louisianiaus, and as many sround them as caaght the speaker’s words, rose to their feet, and cheered Justily. The Maryland resolve indorsivg tbe terms of Con- gress was also vigorously, but mnot #0 wholely and beartily lauded. It is o foregoue conchsicn that the Convention is bound to express itself both in rpeeches and in platform on the subject of impartial suffrage, and it is most poteworthy that nearly all of the delegations that actually ua- derwent the fire of the Rebellion, are pereistently in favor of | it, Such a brave, honest, aud upright body of men bas rarely assembled in Convention, and whatever platform they cboose | to put forth will undoubtedly claim the eympatby and respect of the North. The ultra Sonthern men, who sre all of opiuior that impar- | tial suffrage is necessary to the sslvation of loyal men in the | South, have received & compliment ip the election of Mr. Du- | rant for temporary chairman. The choloe of Mr. Speed, however, cannot be locked cpon as an indorsement by the majority of the Border-State reserva- tion. As a seceder from the Cabinet, it was generally thought | that Speed should be preferred abovo all other meu to besd the cause of the loyal Soutberners, This fact carried the nomina- | tion. The most Radical strength of the Convestion can best | be learned from the names and antocedents of the members of | the Committecs on Kesolves and Address. As the chairman of each delegation arose to sunounce the names of their choice for committee, be proclaimed the epirit | of bis delegation. Alabawma, Georgla, Texas, Mississippi, and sct all the farther States expressed decided favor of rome olve touching suffrage. Tenpessee remains uncommitted. lorder States foar to jeopardise their elections, But the fat at Mr. Speed declared that we could not have resl free- dom in the country ' as long & any man, whatever bis color, is denied representation in the Goversment,” may bave more significance than is generally aituched to it by those who know the record of Mr. Speed. Of the Committee ou Resolves, Thos. J, Durant of Louisians, Lysander Hill of Virgivia; J. B Bryaut of Georgla; Albert Grifin of Alabsma, A. J. Hamilton of Texas, Jas W. ¥ield of Mississippi, Gov.§Flotcher of Missouri, A. . Jones of North Carolina, and Col. Stokes of Teusessce, are understood to be in favorfof negro suflrage. Dr. Breckiuridge of Ken- tacky, A. W. Campball of West Virgizia, C. C. Fulton of Muryland, aud Messrs. Moore of Deisware, avd Eoyd of tho Distriet of Columbia, none of whom belong exactly to the class | of “ fire-trigd Unlonists,” are likely 10 oppose it.
