The Convention.
In the State Convention, on Saturday,
Mr. Stuart, of
Augusta, made a personal explanation touching the letter read by
Mr. Wise on the day previous.
A Committee on Federal Relations, with
Mr. Conrad, of
Frederick, as
Chairman, was appointed, and a Committee on Elections, of which
Mr. Hatmond is
Chairman.
Quite a large number of resolutions, relating to the
National troubles, were introduced and referred to the
Committee on Federal Relations.
Several speeches were made in which there were strong foreshadowing of the course to be pursued by the leaders in the
Convention.
The Southern Commissioners will be received to-day, and no spectators will be admitted except those who receive tickets.
This rule, however, does not apply to the ladies, who will be admitted as usual.
