The traitors in Council. Wheeling,May 13.--The city has been wild with excitement all day. The Federal flag is flying from all the principal buildings in town. The Convention [of traitors] met at 11 o'clock; and after appointing a Committee on Credentials, adjourned till 3 P. M. On re-assembling, the Committee reported favorably on the admission of delegates from twenty-five counties. Permanent officers were appointed, and a Committee on State and Federal Relations. A discussion took place between Gen. John J. Jackson, of Wood, and John S. Carlile. The former thought a division of the State premature; but Carlile said we must have immediate and prompt action. We want, said he, no paper resolves. The Convention adjourned until to-morrow. The ceremony of hoisting the National flag over the Custom-House was imposing. Thousands of people gathered about the building. National airs were sung, and speeches made by Carlile and others.
