The Convention. The Committee on Federal Relations made a partial report on Saturday, and three minority reports were submitted--one by Mr.Wise, one by Messrs. Harvie, Montague and Williams, and one by Mr. James Barhour.--They will be found in the regular proceedings. It is understood that the majority report is approved by sixteen of the twenty one members of the Committee. Mr. Ambler concluded his speech on the pending instruction resolutions, after which they were laid on the table. Mr. Marye submitted a series of resolutions adopted by the citizens of Fredericksburg, accompanying them with some effective remarks. Mr. Johnson, of Richmond, made a speech, refuting some reports alleged to have been circulated to his prejudice among his constituents. It is probable that the grand conflict on the Committee's reports will commence to-day.
