«ena, ■LDWINELL. Editor * Proprietor, fiiKO.T. STOVALL, Associate Editor Saturday Morning, May i, I860. CORRESPONDENCE. fay 1st, 1860. The ««»»^:MJrtaterdoy are fraught with themoet-t^iidSfeuaconsoquciicos. The platform ..minori ty ol the Committee wMHTOpted, eare the,3rd of the aerie* of. resolutions, pledging the Democratic party to abide by the decisions of the Supreme Court, i the subject of Congressional and Territorial power over the subject of Slavery in the Territories, ,,; Thus the i the power of a Territorial Legislature to ! prohibit slavery is tacitly admitted, and 1 the rights of the slave owner to protec- ,tion; is ignored. The delegates: from I Alabama, in accordance with the in* uctions received from their constitu- its——withdrew from the convention in a body. Mississippl'followed next, then lAtiisiana and Florida. AH except two ot the delegates from South Carolina, —h and one from Arkansas thensccedcd.— Virginia, Georgia, North Carolina, f and, Delaware, asked permission to retire for consultation. Senator Bayard, a dele- gatefromthelastnamedState, declar- [, his intention to secede with the South* ' era delegations. Senator Saulsberry, his colleague, said every impulse and sympathy of his heart, was with his Southern friends; that he .folly endor- e principles enunciated in the tnqjqrity report; that. the Southern States wereentitled to protection,* and should have it; hot that the instructions jrith which they had been sent to the convention, were hot suoh as to autho* rise .him totrithdravr absolutely, without mature deliberation. • The whole of these extraordinary proceedings was 1,without the least excitement and with the utmost solemnity. There was an expression of sadness but firm* hess on the faces'of the; Southern men, and one of despair and consternation on those of the Northern delegates. The Convention adjourned until this In accordance with an announce ment made by the chairman of one of «hci sliding delegations, those who withdrew' and all sympathising with them met last night in St. Andrews Hall at.8 o’clock. Col John S. Preston was chosen Presidentpro tern and Gfor. Lub bock, of Texas,[Secretary. Mr. Yanoy ‘i*i , Slave State. Ho then launchedi out t into a slave trade argument. He told negroes hie had bought in Carolina, Maryland and Virginia, and also some from’the shores of Africa, and these last were “the noblest Romans of them alL" During the proceedings, the vote of the States were called for upon some question, and Mr. Cohen cast fen volet for Georgia. The President decided that he delegation, by the act of the major ity had withdrawn from the Convention and had no right to cast a vote. Mr. Seward appealed, and the decision of he Chair was by a. large majority Sus tained. Thus our Douglas delegates were kicked out of a Convention the South had declared Unfit for a Southern man to re- ffrjriMfti ■■■■■i ll n i■ m ii ii ii . Mr/ Flournoy of Arkansas, was to make a personal explanation why he remained, and was proceeding to make a Squatter Sovereignty speeoh, and was surging about like a huge ship In a >rin when he was called to order by me of hit Douglas friends, and not rmltted to proceed, f The delegations from Virginia, Ten nessee andEentucky returned and in- ifoftned th© Convention that thoy had agreed upon the ultimatum, which waa embodied in two resolutions. The first was that the oltisens of every State had the right to enter the Territories with (their property, and that slaves were 6n- titled to the samo protection, as other property. The second resolution declared that no candidate should be the nominee of the Convention unless he received , a vote equal to two thirds of the Eleeto- torsl College. This last was adopted and the Convention prooeeded to ballot for President. On the tenth ballot Douglas had 150jj, and the balance scattering between Hunter, Guthrie and Davis." The Convention adjourned until to-morrow morning. I learn that it is intention of the Douglas men to to get a majority for him and then ad journ sms die. Mr.' Cushing, I learn* up on good authority, will leave for his home to night, completely disgusted at the whole affair. The Southern delegates met thismor- ning and elected Senator Bayard Presi dent of the Convention and a Vioe President from each State represented Hon. J. T. Irwin of Georgia being Vice President from our State. A commit tee of one from each State was appoin ted to report resolutions and the Con vention adjourned until 10 A. M. to morrow. The Georgia delegation will hold meeting to-morrow morning at 8} and then theCenvention adjourned till 10 o’clook to-morrow morning. , „ The protests of the State* are aa fol lows* V , To the Ho*.

But it has been the pleasure of this Convention, by an almost exclusive sectional vote, not respecting a majori ty of the states; nor a majority of the Demooratio electoral votes, to adopt a Platform which does not, in our opin ion, nor in the opinion of those who urge it, embody in substance the principles of the Alabama Resolutions. .

As the representatives of Mississippi, knowing her wishes-HM honorable men; regarding her commands—we withdraw from the Convention, and, as far as our actions is concerned, absolve her from all connection with this body, and all responsibility for its action. To you, sir, as presiding officer of the ivention while it has existed in its in- ity, we desire, collectively as a Dele- m, and individually as men; 'to lender the highest assurances of our profound respect and*consideration.

To theJlon. Caleb Cushing, tf the Charleston b thcHon. C Oimmons We^honi and the power of the people of a Terri tory to exclude it by unfriendly leisla- tion. And 2nd. As regards the duty of the Federal Government to protect the own er of slaves in the enjoyment, of his property in tho Territories, so long as they remain such. This Convention has refused, by .the Platform adopted, to settle either of these propositions in favor of the South. We deny to the people of a Territory any power to legislate against the instu- tion of slavery; and wo.assert.tbat it is the duty of the Federal Government, in all its departmental to protect the owner of slaves in the enjoyment of bis property in the Territories. These principles, as we steto them, are embodi ed in the Alabama Platform. Hero, then, is a plain, oxplioit, and direct issue between this Convcntiounnd the constituency which we have .the honor to represent in this body. Instructed, as wears, not to.waive this issue, the contingency, therefore, has arisen when, in our opinion, it be comes our duty to* withdraw Convention. We beg, Sir, to communicate this fact through you, and’to assure the Conven tion that we do so in no spirit of anger, bat under a sense of imperative obliga tion—properly appreciating its respon sibilities, and cheerfnlly Submitting to its conseqyonoes. [Signed by the Alabama Delegation.] Judge Meek offered the following res olution, which was unanimously adop ted: • Reoolved, That in the event the A[a* bam'a Delegation should withdraw from the Convention, no Delegate or any oth er person shall thenceforward have any and to Inform Zb the President tf the Democratic Conven tion. Six—As Chairman of the Delegation whioh has the honor to represent the State of Mississippi on this floor, I de sire to be heard by you and by the Con vention. In common consultation wo have jnet hero, the reprroehtatiyesef sister 8tqtes» to resolve the principles of a great par ty. While maintaining principles, we profess no spirit save that of harmony, conciliation, the suocess of our party, and the safety of our organization. But' to the former the latter must yield for no organisation is valuable without it, and no success Is honorable which does noterownit. * . We came here simply asking a recog nition of the equal rights of our States under the laws and Constitution of our common Government;, that our right to ' should be asserted, ana the promotion of that property, when ne cessary, should be yielded by the gov ernment which claims our allegiance.— We had regarded government and pro tection as oo-relative ideas, and that so long as the one was maintained the oth- still endured. After the deliberation of many days, it has been announced to us by a con- "ing majority of Representatives of ly one-naif the Slates of this Union and that too, in the most sotonm and impressive manner, that oar demand cannot be met, and oarvight* cannot be reoognisedi While it is granted that the capacity of the Federal Govern ment is ample to projgot all other We, Ihe undersigned, Delegates ap pointed by the Demooratio State Con vention or South Carolina, beg leave rmpectfolly to state that according to the principles enunciated in their plat form at Columbia; the power, of the Federal Government, or of its agent, through Terrritorial Government, to abolish, or legislate against property in slaves, qy either .direct or indirect legis lation, is especially denied; and as the platform adopted by this Convention palpably and intentionally prevents any expressimxafflnnibg the incapacity of the TeHHHial Government so as to leg- islate, flMRhey would be toting in good faith to their principles, or in accor dance with the wishes of their constit uents, to longer remain in this Conven tion, and they hereby respectfully an. nounc© their withdrawal therefrom.
