Baltimore Convention.
Last night’s mail brought us the Balti
more papers of Wednesday , with full de
tails of the proceedings of the convention
on Tuesday, the day it assembled. We an
nex such as are of general interest, premi
sing that great confusion prevailed through
Out the sessions of the first day.
At eleven o’clock, the doors of the hall
were opened—the main entrance on Balti
more street for the ingress of the Second
street entrance for delegates and those hav
ing tickets of admission to the floor of the
Convention. The delegates thronged rap
idly in, and it soon became evident that ex
tensive and complete as the arrangements
were, there would be a press for room.
The announcement was then made by Mr.
Kettlewell, of the committee of arrange
ments, that each State would only be enti
tled to seats on the main platform equal in
number to their Congressional representa
tion, and that alternates and mass delegates
must take their places in the reserved seats,
adjoining the platfoem. This announce
ment, however, produced but little effect,
and though it was repeated frequently, the
crowding and confusion increased.
The Convention having been called to
order by Mr. Hallett, Hon. Romulus M.
Saunders, of North Carolina, was made
temporary Chairman, and four secretaries
appointed. At this time the crowd on the
platform had become so dense that great
The delegation from Georgia declined ap
pointing a member of the Committee, a
delegate stated that there were two sets
representing different wings of the Demo
cratic party claiming to be entitled to seats
in the Convention. It was stated that they
desired to be heard before the Committee
on Credentials through James Jackson, on
the part of one set, and Solomen Cohen, on
the part of the other.
Mr. Hallett, of Massachusetts, proposed
a resolution instructing the Committee on
Credentials to report the number of votes
to which each State was entitled, and the
number and names of delegates from each
State entitled to seats in the Convention,
with the office address of each delegate.
Mr. Thurman of Ohio, moved to lay the
amendment on the table. He said that it
was ambiguous. He thought the commit

A member moved an amendment to the
report by striking out so much as related to
the two-third rule. Cries of No! No! No
were freely made from various parts of the
house, and a considerable degree of excite
ment was manifested.
It was then moved that the amendment
be laid on the table.
At this state of the proceedings, and a-
midst much confusion, the Chairman took
the sense of the Convention on the report of
the Committee on Organization, with the
exception of the two-third rule, and it was
adopted.
The question was then taken on the res
olution reported by the Committee estab
lishing the two-third rule, and it was adop

assurance from the mover of the amend
ment that his only object was to obtain the
Post office address of the members, and an
assertion that that should be furnished, he
withdrew his amendment.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
Shortly before 5 o’clock, P. M., the mem
bers of the Convention commenced assem
bling, and soon after that hour the Conven
tion was called to order. Preivous to which
confusion began to'prevail, & it was evident! however, it was announced that arrange
that without the adoption of some means
order could not be preserved sufficiently to
enable the Convention to advance with its
proceedings. Another appeal was made
to the alternates and others to withdraw
from the platform.
Gov. Floyd, of Virginia, said that the
confusion prevailing was inevitable, from
the want of sufficient room. But fifteen
seats had been allotted to the Virginia c'el-
egates, and there w’ere one hundred pres
ent. They could not designate who of that
number should be the fifteen entitled to
seats on the platform. It was impossible
for them to make the distinction if they
wished to do so. They were willing to
take any place on the floor or in the gallery
but they were determined to keep together.
They proposed to retire until room could
be provided for them.
Gen. Ward, of New York, said he was
glad Virginia was represented here by her
hundred delegates. He hoped, however,
that they would endeavor to make out with
what room was afforded them until the or
ganization was completed and other ar
rangements could be made.
Partial order having been obtained, the
President, Gen. Saunders, arose and briefly
addressed the Convention, making his ac
knowledgments for the honor conferred on
him,-soliciting the aid of the members in the
discharge of the duties of the Chair, and
urging the importance of union audconcili
ation in their proceedings.
On motion of Mr. Jacob Thompson, of
Mississippi, it was resolved to appoint a
Committee of one delegate from each State
represented in the Convention to nominate
permanent officers for the government of
the Convention; and each delegation to ap
point its own delegate in said Committee.

and the Committee was constituted as fol

Resolved, That, the Committee on Or-1
ganization be instructed to report rules for
the government of this Convention, and
ments had been made to extend the di
mensions of the platform in order to the
better accommodation ot the members, the
press for room, although not so great as in
the morning, making it manifest that ex
tensive as the arrangements were, they were
yet too small to accommodate all who claim
ed to be admitted on the platform.
The Convention having come to order,
the Chairman enquired whether the Com
mittee on organization was prepared to re
port.
The Committee on Credentials was then
called on for a report, but stated that they
were not prepared to report.
Mr. N. B Brown of Arkansas, then re
newed rhe following resolution which he
had offered in the morning, which was a-
dopted.
on
It was moved to lay this motion on the
table, and by a vote of States, called for by
the Ohio and Maryland delegations, declar
ed in the affimative, by yeas 274—nays 13.
Three ot the negative votes were cast by
New York and ten by Ohio.
The Convention adjourned till Wednes
day morning.
Excitement in our Town.
Our town was the scene of a high state
of excitemeuton Wednesday night last oc
casioned by the return to our midst, on the
steamer of that day, of Samuel Gibson, who
nearly two years since, was forced to take*
his departure by an excited populace, in
consequence of strong circumstantial evi
dence of his having been engaged in nu
merous incendiary crimes that were perpe
trated about that time.
On his return on Wednesday, armed ts>
the teeth, as if to bid defiance to the people,
a warrant was immediately issued at the
instigation of numerous members of the
committee ofVigilance, by the acting In-
tendant for his arrest, and placed in the
hands of the Town Marshall, who repaired
to the residence of Gibson for the purpose
of securing his arrest. But manifesting a
determination not to be placed in the hands
of an injured and exeited people, he at-

A motion was then made to adjourn un
til to-morrow morning at 9 o’clock and re
jected.
Various suggestions were then made in
order to remedy the difficulty which the
delegates at a distance from the Chair la
bored under in hearing the Chairman and
Secretaries. Great confusion prevailed a-
mong the members, several attempting to
speak at once. After considerable excite
ment and discussion and another futile at
tempt to adjourn, the Committe on Organi
zation, through their Chairman, Mr.
Thompson, of Indiana, stated that if they
were permitted to retire for a short time
they would be prepared to report. Leave
was granted and the Committee retired.
After being absent a short time, thecom-
mittee returned and reported the follow

The committee also reported the follow,

Resolved, That the rules of the House of
Representatives, as far as applicable for the
government of this Convention be adopted
as the rules of this Convention.
Resolved, That two-thirds of the whole
number of votes given shall be necessary to
the nomination of candidates for President
and Vice President of the United States,
by this Convention.
Resolved That in voting upon any ques
tion which may arise in the proceedings of
this Convention the vote shall be taken by
States at the request of any one State; each
State to be entitled to the number of votes
to which such State is entitled in the next
Electorial College, without regard to the
number of delegates in attendance; the man
ner in which said vote is to be cast to be de-
next sought to secrete himself in the garret
of his house, which he reached by means
of ascending a ladder leading thereto. He
for a long time refused to descend therefrom
and no doubt feeling that with the aid of
his heavily loaded revolver he was “mon
arch of all he surveyed,” he seemed yet to
bid defiance to officers and citizens. The
threats of demolishing the house to which
free utterance was given by the exaspr ra
ted crowd outside—the demand that he
would out “any how—very soon—immedi
ately”—dead or alive, together with the ac
cidental dischare of a pistol immediately be
low him, by which two or three individuals
narrowly escaped with their lives, as well as
the proffered protection of his person from
violence—seemed to bring the man to a
realizing sense of his situation, and doubt
less considering that “discretion was the
better part of valor,” he soon placed him-
self in the hands of the proper authorities
and but little ceremony was exercised in
transporting him to the “lock-up,” where
the “bird was safely caged” to await the
first means of transportation from the limits
of the State.—Jacksonnille (Fla.) News.
Later from California—Massacre of In
dians.—New York, June 3. p. ra.—The
steamship Northern Light has arrived, and
brings San Francisco dates to the 6th of
May. The steamship Columbia left San
Francisco on the 5th ult., with nearly $2,-
000,000 in gold dust. Both Houses of the
Legislature of California have passed joint
resolutions in favor of the compromise.
Intelligence has been received at San
Francisco that the whites had massacred
one hundred and fifty Indians, near Chasta.
A serious difficulty has occurred between
the Chinese and Americans at Sacramento.
Large numbers of Chinese have been ex
pelled from the mines.
The intelligence from the mining districts
is favorable, and business was brisk.
on Wednesday opened dull, with sales of only
371 bales. On Thursday the market opened
with a fair demand, and at the close 777 bales
had changed hands; prices were in favor of
buyers, and some sales were made at 1-8 cent
decline. Early in the afternoon of that day
still later accounts by the Asia were received.
The Liverpool Cotton market at the close of
the week on the 22d May showed a decline of
one eighth of a penny for Low Middling, while
the lower qualities remained unchanged.
Yesterday {Friday) the market was dull
and the sales were only 174 bales, viz: 3 at 8
1-4, 64 at 9,4 at 9 1-4, 93 at 9 1-2, and 10 at 9
5-8 cents. The market is unsettled, and prices
have a downward tendency. The transactions
since the Asia are not large enough to tell
their effect on prices, and it is difficult to give
correct quotations; but the following approxi
mate as near as possible to the true state of
the market:
Ordinary to Good Ordinary 8 a 8 1-2
Low to Good Middling, 9 a 9 1-2
Middling Fair 10 a—
Fair to Fully Fair, 101-4 a 10 1-2
To total sales of the week comprise 2,332
bales, at the following prices: 51 bales at 8,
27 at 8 1-8, 36 at 8 1-4 126 at 8 1-2, 2 at 8 7-8
103 at 9,45 at 9 1-4, 63 at 9 3-8,563 at 9 1-2,

104 at 10 1-8, 48 at 10 3-16,171 at 10 1-4 144
at 10 3-8, and 23 at 10 1-2 cents.
Sea Islands.—The i eceipts eontinne very
light, and the small stock on the market has
confined the operations to the sale of 34 bales,
viz.: 2 at 22 25 at 25, and 7 at 28 cents. For
mer full prices are paid. The exports have
been 310 bales, principally to Liverpool.
Rice.—We have no material change to re
port in this article. The stock is light, and
sellers obtain former full prices. The sales of
the week are 400 tierces, viz.: 150 at $3 1-2 a
7-8, and 250 at $4 per 100 lbs. The ex
ports have been 323 tierces, all coastwise
Flour.—The sales of the week have been
small The market is well supplied, and we
hear of sales of Baltimore from store at $5 per
bbl.
Corn.—The heavy stock on the market has
depressed prices, and few sales are now made.
By the cargo we quote at 65 a 66 cents, and
from store by retail at 75 cts.
Hat.—There is a fair supply for sale, but
the transaction are light. We hear of sales of
Eastern lrom the wharf at $1,12 1-2 per 100
lbs.
Molasses.—The market is well supplied
with Cuba, and it has been selling on the
wharf in large lots at 18 cents per gall. In
small parcels it brings 18 1-2 cents per gall.—

years, I have had a disease in my chest which
was very distressing to me, attended with a
severe cough,cccasionally spitting ot blood,
and sometimes almost stopping my breath in
such a way as to make me believe that my end
was near. After using a great many different
articles recommended to ine by my neighbors,
without any benefit, I applied to a Mineral
Physician, but with the like result. Hearing
of the success that Dr. Sage had acquired in
the treatment of Chronic diseases, I concluded
to try him,and accordingly made application,
and am happy, and proud to say, that with two
prescriptions he has entirely cured me, so that

of a great many different remedies without at
taining auy relief, I applied to Dr. Sage, who
undertook my case, and I am proud to say, that
from the firstly I commenced to take his
medicine, I began to mend, until now, my
health seems so thoroughly restored, that my
flesh and strength have returned,and I can now
enjoy the usual comfort of life with pleasure,
being now able to do as much work as I ever
could, without experiencing any feelings of in
convenience afterwards—and all this with only
three prescriptions and medicine, at the trifling
cost of fifteen dollars. I have been induced
to make ti e above statement, from the hope
that my fellow-men may be benefitted by giv
ing the Doctor a trial before yielding them
selves to tjte demon of despair.

Satisfiecfclipt thereare thousands that may
be cured if th'ey will,the undersigned ean only
assure them that should t hey deem it their in
terest to employ him, he will do all that in him
lies, to secure to each such favorable results.
Ptrsons desirous of testing the efficacy of
these remedies in their own cases, no matter
where they reside, may do so very conveniently
by sending a statement of the symptoms and
history of their case, age, fce.,in writing, when
medicines to suit their various cases will be
compounded and sent by Mail, Express or
private hand. In such cases the charge will be
only Five Dollars ($5 00) monthly. Remit
tances thus by mail are always at his risk.
Hitherto the postage, over 300 miles, has
been so high as to preclude many, to a great
extent, from the benefits resulting from his
treatment; that barrier has been removed, and
the sphere of his usefulness has thus been
widened to an almost unlimited extent, for now
a package can he sent with safety to any part
of the Republic for only six cents an ounce.
For treatment at his house, accommodations
being ample, the charge will be in proportion
to the trouble requisite in each case.
In accute cases the charge will be moderate
as usual. *
