Mr. Sberuian, us Ohio, the Hepubli* cun candidate for Speaker, tacks six rotes of an ■ uleeti’ n ; Mr. Boeock, of Virginia, the democrat- I ic cai di lute, lacks twenly-eightto elect him; Mr. i Gilmer, of North Carolina, receives tjrcnty-two votes, scattering, twelve votes. Two South Americans from Maryland, Messrs. Davis and Kioaud, snpport the ltcpublican candidate, the remaining Americans vote for Air. Gilmer. There is a Strung disposition on the.part of the House to ferret out the breadth ami depth of the Harper's Furry invasion and sound to the core Ihe real posit ion of the boutb in the Loioo. Mr. Giluter is courting Black Republican influence hy offer ing a peace resolution, which, however right, ab stractly considwred, introduced at this time is as disostrous to the policy and independence of the South, as was the entrance of the Grecian Horse, filled with armed men, to the good people of Troy. It i* difficult to foresee what tho result will be. From a perusal of tho correapomloaoe oftbe New York Daily AVi c*, wo soo that Mr Crawford of Georgia und Mr. Stevens of Now York have had a controversy in the House. Mr. Stevons. it seems, derided the Houthem mouthers for their spirit, and ridiculed their dis play of devotion to their suction. This drew Mr. Crawford to his feet, who made a short speech, unintelligible to the reporters, so great was the applause, cun fusion and calls to order. The. Aew# says, “Members on ail sides rose to their foet and crowded the area near Messrs. Stevens and Crnwfbrd. The greatest excitement prevailed, and at one time a collision was feared. Mr. Crawford Continued his remarks, and said, Don’t sing psalms to the Union and Constitution till wo quiet, lie was again applauded and Ctnlinuod speaking amid calls to order.” frurn the foregoing meagre report of Judge Cranford’s remarks, that ho lashed the flunks of the Republicans well, and made the gulled jades wince. Judge Tver sob, we aee, baa also made a spirited speech in the Senate, The eyes of th country arc upon the Southern mem bers, and we trust that they may boar thorn solves with all the chivalry and independenee, which characterizes their constituents.

What they did must have effect only by virtue of their ineuiborrhip in the Legislature, and was. therefore, a Leyiitatire Aet. As such, it must undergo tbe|ordoal of the Gov ernor's revision, and we trust that that worthy official will, in the exercise of his usual discrimi nation, veto R. _ _ The PHtudo Drmocrftilr convention This sell-constituted body has assembled after fifteen days notice to sixty thousand democrats in Georgia, and appointed delegates to tho Na tinuul liouiocratic Convention to assemble at Charleston. The call of the Executive Commit tee for the 2d day of March was ignored—the protest of forty democratic members of the Leg - islature disregarded—some sixty couriliss were untepresmited—other counties were represented without authority, and the whole party in the State thrown Into confusion and discord. Tho Augusta CmintituUonnhtt says the Convention was a “lamentable failure,” tbo Savannah AV prate repudiate* its net lon, and other papers are equally indignant. What is said by this journal is not in a captious spirit, bat fur tbe interest and harmony of the party in tho Htate. Tbo 2d Con gressional district and nearly all of tbe 4tb dis trict, with scattering counties through tbe Htate were u a rep resented. Hon. Isaiah Irwin was President of the Convention, and Hon.

Correspondence of the Times. Second District in Slate Democratic Convention. Ml U.KIWiKVILLK, Ua., Dec. 10. The Democratic Convention has assembled and done its work. Thcro is a vrido spread dissatis fhetion at the obstinacy of wme members of the Legislature in insisting upon the spurious call.- Hon. Mr. Seward led thedisorguniaersin tin Con vention and Mr. Irwin of W ilkes was President. The 2d district withdrew in a body. One man by the nntre of Johnson concluded to represent Do oator county. He is a Clerk in the Legislature, and I understand has not resided iu # lho district long enough to vote. Nevertheless, wbcu the names of delegates to the Charleston Convention were called, he took tho authority to represent TWK.NTY-rut b counties, and nominated Hood and Evans. The Couvoutiou of course unanimously vlreltd them. Thanks to Mr. Johnson, whoever ha is, for his nttcution to the democracy of tho 2d Cougrcssiunal District. Tho whole Convcn- j tion reflects no credit upon the Democratic mem bers of the Legislature, who excluded the people from a voice in the matter. RAMBLER. uW • Mavou's Klk imx in New York.

Convention Y'kstkiu*at\—lt will ho seen by the ropoit of onr Milicdgcviile correspondent, tlikthis nnauthorired nssotubly met and organi ted yesterday, and dotormiued to elect dclognfos to the Charleston Convention. It is an unprece dented (trot ch of authority, without warrant, aud indefensible every wav, and one that the !>*/•/• will rebuke with tearful emphasis. The folly and irregularity of the whole proceeding is manifest in the foot that there are thirty traintir* in tbie State, unrepresented by Democratic member* of j the Legislature, and consequently disUanchised bv this act. Thor© were but si&tydirs w\vt*H-ntn\, forty eight of whom had received no instructions from their constituents and ctmto qiiently utterly unqualified to act. The rights of tho ptoplt have been usurped atul their prero f'atirc rudely and ruthlossly snatched from them. y men wholly unauthorised and irresponsible. But thev might have saved their time and breath, for the power that placed these modest gentle men where they arc. will speak in its majesty on tho sttcotid of March 1860. and resume its viola ted rights.- -NoromioA AVir* VfA t’md The convention lesterUay. Yesterday was. the day designated for the meeting of the Convention at Milled gov Hie called by tho Democratic mouther* of the Legislature,to appoint drlcgiitwa to represent tho Democracy of ■ this State in the Charleston Convention. We ! have seen in the Democratic papers of the State j the proooodings of six mootings only, convened | for the purpose of appointing delegates to this j Convention, and five of them disapproved of the j notion of the Democratic members of tho Logisln turc in railing it. But stilt, we suppose th.it the Convention was hold, and that delegates were ap pointed to tlm next Nationul Convention of the ! Democratic party. ! The Democracy of the State, if they had been j permitted time to act, would have repudiated the | action of their Representatives in the Legislature, [in calling this convention- Those representu | tiyes were sent to Millodgevill© to attend to the ! interests of tho Stato and their constituencies,not to nominate {delegates to repfosewtg the Demo* criitic party of Georgia, and cast its vote in tho Charleston Convention. That was aright which was not delegated to them, hut which the Demon cratl© people of the Stuto expected Ht the proper time to exercise. They were not permitted to exercise that right in the convention held yester day. fur they were not and could not he represen ted in that body. Nor did they cure to ho rep resented in that body. They are not prepared nt such a lime as this, when no one can any what a dny may bring forth, to indicate their choice for a nominee for tho Presidency months in ud vance of the meeting of the nominating conven tion, and lay down the platform upon which they are willmg to sustain that nominee. They wan ted time to deliberate upon these important mat ters, and to ace what Would be tl\© devulopmonts of the next sow months: and for those reasons, they desired to postpono the. appoint muni of del egates to tho Charleston Convention until tho time designated by tho Executive Committee. But there delegates were probably appointed yesterday, and tho question now is. will tho par ty accept them, or prepare to hold the conven tion on the second of March, which has been cull mi hy tho Executive Committee, and appoint ot hers iu their stead? The decision of this ques tion will depend very much upon tho action ta ken by the, convention yeaterday. If the dele gates appointed, and tho platform adopted for it, represent and express the views and fetlings of the Democracy of the Htato. there will be no oth er Convention; if they do not there will be. The party is not bound by tbo action of the conven tion of yestordtj, Kbceusq that body wus not an authomed assemblage, ft is free to accept or rcpudinlo that aotjou. It did not authorise the call of the convention— it wus not represented in it, and it is under no obligation to submit to what it has done.Wo trust that the Convention lias ap pointed delegates at.d adopted a platform which will be approved by the whole party, and that there will be, therefore, no occasion for another convcn (ion. But, before wo know what its action has been, we desire distinctly to stuto, that in our opinion, the party ia free t” accept r repu diate it, and if it is repudiated, that tho respon sibility for tho divisious and discords which may ohmic, will rest upon the democratic members of the legislature, who called the convention, with out the sanction of the ‘party. —Awjusta Constt taliunalut itlh. Dlvorro Rill Mr. Wallace f Tajlor. From the Augusta Constitutionalist we ex tract the following debate upon the divorce law in the Legislature. The hill of Mr. Wallace, of Taylor, to repeal the third section of the divorce law of 1800, cuuaed considerable diiteussi n in the Semite. Mr. Hill of Troup, argued iliaM l "* hill should pass: he believed that the act Os Ih.lo, allow ing oivoreea tor drunkenness, ahiihc, deser tion, Ac., was wrong, uhd ought to he repeal ed, it should be dissolved aa to both parties alike. Mr. Seward of Thomas, thought that if members were opposed lo divorces, they should introduce n hill to repeal the whole <Jt vorce law of the present day; by the present law one party is not freed by the concurrent verdicts of two special juries; they alwax* apply to the Legislature to be relieved from the penalty of the law . in case of u subsequent marriage; and In the hundred* of ease* that have come before the Legislature since 1800. there is not a single instance of refusal to grant such an application. Mr Wallace, of Taylor, took the floor in favor of lo* bill; the Legislature *pend hun dred* of dollar* every few day* of the session in such special legislation. No doubt but two hundred thousand dollar* hud been spent in the lal fifty years on special divorce tail* that the Legislature always grunted, and why not dispense With such nn evil by n repeal of the clause that caused it ? The working* of the present law were almost always the innocent He had known onoea of husband* abusing their wives iu such manner Hint they were obliged to leave them, und then obtained a divorce from their v„ive* on the ground of desertion, as authorised by lav-: thus leaving the innocent sutlerer, barred from all the rights ot matrimony, while the guilty cause was a!* lowed to marry again.

I*M> Congrrss. The latest intelligence from Washington, re ports the llottfc engaged in the discussion of u resolution offered by Mr. (’lark, of Missouri, iu reference to that vile aud treason able production knowu as “Ilolpcr's Book.” That resolution is at follows j Jistohscd, That tho doctrine* and sentiments of a oortatn bobk called tho “Impending Crisis of tho South, and How to meet It,” purporting to have boon written by Hinton R. Helper, arc in* ©endiary and hostile to tho domestic pane© and tranquility of the ©onntry: and that no member of this House who bus roeotnmendod or cudoraed ii or tho Cuiupond, is fit to bo tho .Speaker of this House. Mr. Shoriuaa, the Republican candidate for Speaker, is ono of tho signers and endorsers of this prod notion, and, bonce, the resolution umy io considered as levelled directly against him. lie seeks to avoid tho ioree of a just condemna tion by the contemptible plea of ignorance of tho scope and contents of the work he recommended. A most lame and impotent excuse ! We are glad to soo that our Southern representatives aau not caught by so transparent a falsehood, and are determined to fasten the Infamy upon the traitor. This man, thus stigmatized by his own act as an enemy to the Constitution, is receiving, day after day, tire combined vote of the Black Republican party lor Speaker of tho Houso. Yet, in tho face of this commentary up u n their professions, his supporters, or many of them, have the effrontery to declare that they do not sympathise with tho recent foray of John Brown upon tho pence and honor of tho South. That his election will ensue is, under the presont aspect of affairs, by no means impossible. Ln that event, we feel very much like seconding the n.lvlco to tho ftouthern reprosontnlives, given recently by Senator Ivor* hod in the course of some remarks made by him in tho Senate, to return home and tell their con atituantsito prepare fora dissolution of the Union, ln this connection wo desire to correct a state ment made b.v our Senator at the tirno bo deliv ered tho above in reftMuuoo to his constituents ’ and himself. He said that he was regarded as an ‘•ultra man” at home. We see no ground fur this imputation. iu tho position which he has taken upon the rights and duty of the South, Judge Iverson whs, perhaps, a little in advance of lila dny, hut, view ed iu the light whiuh subsequent evouts have cart upon that position, the groat uiasu of tho people of Georgia commend and endorse It. The Senate wore engaged in discussing a reso lution submitted by Mr. Mahou, of Virginia, for tho appointment of ajeommittee to investigate the llurper's Ferry invasion. Mr. Trumbull, of Illinois, with a view to embarrass and defeat tho resolution, moved to amend by adding, that the investigation be extended to the seixura of tho Arsenal at Liberty, Missouri, four years ago. This motion elicited patriotic speeches from Senator* Maoon, Hunter, Brown, l’ugb, Green and Iverson. Mr. Crittenden of Keutueky wus the ouly South ern Senator who favored the amendment.

Tho game, heretofore, has worked pret ty well. Tho South has boon foolish enough to acoopt these partial demonstrations of sympathy for her wrongs, and attachment to the Constitu tion, es a halm for her wounded pride and com pensation for her outraged rights. The Union professors, in times of comparative quiet, allow, or perhaps assist, the Black Republican party a to get control of tho Stato Legielatures’and the rep resentation in Congress; say not a word against tho enactment of laws prohibiting tho rendition of fugitive slaves; are not horror-struck at the election of such men as Howard, llalo and Wil son, but when some daring outrage-—tho logiti male fruit of their apathy or acquiescence—sum mons the tfoutii to assume a threatening attitude, thoy suddenly become aroused, call together the great congregation-—the manufacturers, mer chants and other beueficiariee of Southern labor, make loud protestations of love for the Union, and loyalty to the Constitution, repudiate aboli tionism, ami go home laughing In their sleeves at us for kelieviug tho juke.

When tho North is rid of abolitionism, proof of the purga tion will be made nt the ballot box. Talbot ( ounty Delegation to th© Legislative Con tention. Tho Democracy in a few counties in this State, left the matter of acting with the late Convention, to tbo discretion of their waiuUra in the Legis lature. Such we presume was the case with the Democracy of Talbot oounty. Mr. L. B. Smith, the ahle Senator from that oounty, stated iu the Convention, that the delegates from Talbot, had authority to act with such Convention as they believed would more fully represent tho wishes of the people, and that they woald reserve the right to act with any other Convention which might thereafter be called. The example of Mr. Smith, induced many others to go in upon the same terms, and ns tho Convention was rather pushed for time and men, they were all accepted upon that condition. These gc-utlemeo, then, are by their agreement, at perfeet liberty to repudiate the action of that unauthorised assemblage, and new, that the intention of its prime movers is pat’ ent, we trust that they will at ouce come eut, uud no longer lend the authority of their atmei to bolster up the deformed and disjointed ihiny.

Mr. Morris also caused to be read Mr. Greeley’s publication denying the truth of the charge, and, while detesting Mr. Douglas’ doe* trine*, admiring his pluck. Mr. Kellogg, (rep. of 111.) replied that but for the fact that he bad been personally assailed in uu infamous article in the Tribune, he would uot have said award, as bo was anxious for an or ganization. He said that lioraeo Greeley and Judge Douglas bad boon put on trial, and gave notice that he should hereafter prosecute the is auo. Mr. Clarke, deui.. of Missouri, was called out by a remark of Mr. Kellogg, that a report bad prevailed that according to arrangements, tbe Missouri Heuutorship was to be given to Mr. Blair. Ifo believed this charge agaiuft Mr. Douglas was a falsehood, but bo did not attach any importance to tbe statement of Greeley, whom he bolierod a thief, and of character unworthy tbe notice of a gentleman in or out of Congrats. Mr. Kellogg, repeated as an issue bad been made, be would meet it fairlv. He disclaimed having made any attack on Douglas. He dealt with Greeley.

The movoment attracted the *>i all ii> the H one, aud in an instant thurc was a general rush from both sides to (hespot. Mr. Kellogg put forth his hands as if to catch Mr. T.ogutt, who leaned back. There was then a seeming attempt on tho part of Mr. Kcl log to grasp Mr. Loguii, but he did nut succeed. There was a positive dojnun st rat ion of a hostile intention jju the first not of Mr. Kellogg, but there was no blotV struck on the instant of meeting, end tbe nort instant the two gentlemen were urroundcd by their friends. Tho greatest confusion prevailed, and every thing bore muro threatening aspect than the disorder of Tuesday. In vain the Clerk** ham mer was heard.
