Designs of the Peace Men Relative to McClellan and Seymour. The Monster Mass Meetings of Saturday Last, fevi? a?H Mi THE SPECIAL HERALD DCSPATCHES. Chicago, August 28, 1864. Sunday morniug ban found everything in a commotion. the New York detonation remained In session until one A. M , and (lien mljournoil with the agreement that thoy ihould tak't i? vote oa Monday morning, at nine o'clock, "or a candidate. Ibis failure to c ino to a square vote before tbev adjourned has set eveivthiug by sixes and j sevens again this morning. All manner 01 rumors arc floating about In regard to the Qbaugo of front or this and that rteleg .tion, every one of which, as fur us I have oeen ablo to truce tbem buck, are the more inventions of some blowers, or persons who twve been m iking hots and aro taking tbat course in the 'jopes of wi ning. At a late hour last night the opposition to McClellan ' gave up tbo rentes t; but they cro at their old game again tbis morning, and muniie-l hopes that the New York delegation will give Seymour a complimentary vote, rbeu they w ill turn over a portion o other delegations m the complimentary vote to prevent New York from Jropping bim on the next ballot; but the majority of the New York delegation will not be caught in thai trap. I The Penusy lvatiia delegation have become very bitter vgainst the Seymour faction, and call them a sot of Macklegs and gamblers, wbo are hero betting and specu lating upon the lilo blood of the nation. It is amus.ng to see bow Fernando Wood Is using those geutletneu who were formerly with him in Mo/art Hull, and wbo are now le?ders in the new organization iu New York against bim. These gentlemen have .lumped into the movement for Seymour, and Wood remains in his room, chuckling and crowing over how be is making tools of ibe fools, as be calls them, and then adds, "I don't care five cents for Seymour; be Isonlyaconve moot tool just now. Kvery man who is in favor or the independence of the South is working for Seymour." These facts have become so apparent tbat the entire itegency, even to Cassidy, are now against Seymour. TboTfcw York delegation bold* the tate of the Conven tion in their own bands, all rumors to the contrary not withstanding. Their vote will be given for McClellan, except it may be tbat of John McKeon, wbo doclares tbat ie will vote for Charios O'Conor. There will be thousands of rumors today; bat they will bo of little ellect; for the large bulk of the delegates lave now become convinced tbat Seymour Is being run for mischiei by Wood, the betters and the real secesh. 1 predict that It will result in Seymour presenting Merid ian's name. He begins to see tbe trick. Kverv State but New York, Kansas and Iowa has taken a vote on candidate. Mc'Tellan bad a large majority In ovory State that bag voted, except Oaio, and in many of Chem it is unanimous. The Connecticut i-t the only New Fngland delegation In wbich tbere is any strong opposi tion. There is a desperate effort tbere to get that vole for Thomas H. Seymour. George Francis Train is running Goneral I>ix, and de clares tbat all tne Territories will go ror bim and nomi nate him, and tbat he will be the next President. Put tbere is a serious drawback to bis plans. T-ie National Committee have passed a resolution declaring tbat tbe Territories sh. ill have no vote in the C -invention. Tbis would utnet Train's scheme, which included a grand pool for Wall stree', tr tbere was anything in It; but thore is not; for no person but Train has m'otioued Dix's name here. He is here as a delegate from Nebraska. Tbere aro numerous reports that ttio McClellan feoling will all be crurbed out bef> re Monday sight; but tbere are at least forty thousand strangers In tbe city , nine tenths of whom aro hurriblug for Mr lellan. It is a hard mailer to stop s many mouths. Millard Fillmore has declined to have bis name used, and urges the n?min? tion of McClellan. The two thirds rule it :.ow one of tbe principal ques tions in the cunvaas, and is likely to cause considerable trouble. Outbrie's speech yesterday was o: e of the strongest Mct'loliau speeches delivered horo. Tae Am i- Kendall Convention did not recommend any sandidate for Vice-President. John H. Haskln succeeded in tiersnadlnir the Convention to leave tbat office out. The repubi"-ans admit thit the mi?i meeting for Me ridian last night lar exceeded aovibiug over held here. Tbo enthusiasm and excitemont be.-gured description. Chicago, Aug'ist 23 ? P. M. Tho excitement and confusion have Inorcised all day, 5)u? bave bc!0 confined almost exclusively to otiMilers. l>en 'gates have t ikcn but lilt:c part id tbe controvert?. Iho halls of inn hotols bsvo been densely crowded all <1 iv with men arguing with each other. The opposition to M '< lellan bavo been exreedmr'y bitter and loud In tbctr tone, In many instance* decoirng tlial tbey will bolt. This looks as though they considered McClellau's nomina tion u fort-gun conclusion. Tbo friends of tbe (ietioral huve pursued i very wise course to-day, aud have managed their card* very shrewdly, ?ad hive gained strength In several localities. An effort has been made to turn tbe Michigan delega jinn against I.H tie M m. To Hccnmpiisb tins one ol tbo delegates stated In tbeir ctu'.ua that Seytnonr made a ip ech t'? tbe N" ' -v Y iH delegation denouncing McOallan. T ns caused so nothing of a r.muiioiion against Mac Tor a sho t tltno. but one o|' tbe New York delegates was sent for, who aiaied that Seymour not only did not say any. thing against Mc' led. iu, but, en the ether band, lauded him to tho very skies. Thin Is tbe mode of warfare use 1 by tbe ? pro* lion o Mcf lellan. lo-nipkt V iilandigbain alia afates that Seymour has author-zed him to state that he will bo a candidate. .At an offset to this, one of Governor eoymour's staff, who h >k been working for him, states that the Oorernor au thorized bin) to stale to the Ntw Yorf delegate* that bo would not linve U'S name used. Some na*e it that tbe Ohio delegation have ?e'eet?d Va'.lsiidigbain for tbeir representative on the Comnlttec oo Revolutions or Platform. It now appears as though tho adoption of tbe two thirds role will not In the If aet Interleto with tbe noinl nation of M Clellan.

THE GENERAL NEWSPAPER DESPATCHES. The Prepsraileiu for tho Convention and t lie Anticipated Wiiininmtlunl. Cmi'Aito, August -S , 1864 The virions delegations to tbe National Itemocratic Convention are now fall, the few vacancies existing yesterday having been Oiled by tbe selection of substl tuiee. No apparent changes hare occurred In the vlew? of tbe different delegations as to tbe most available candi datee witb the exception that McClellan seems to gain Mraogtb with tbe New Knglsnd delegites. Ike session oi tbo New York deviation la?t tight wac | prolonged until after midnight bat, although the He | Clelianitee are in the iu- J >riiy, no definite c inclusion wai ' arrived at, and It was tinally agreed upon to take the i decisive vote at nine o'clock to-morrow morning. i Some or the McCleilan delegations from the East and ? I'onnsylvanla begin to talk sharply of the course pur [ sued by the New York detonation. They claim that M ??'Jlellan has a large majority of the whole vole of the Convention ; that no such vole ran be concentrated nu any other mau, and that if New York would ouly bpeak promptly aud emphatically for hint hi" noiuiuation would be nude by acclamation. Governor Seymour continue* to bold the position that he is nut a candidate, ami this lias led many to declare for McCleilan who previously held Seymour as their brst choice. There are many outsiders from New York, however, 1 who Bay that .Seymour his no right to deoy bis friends , the privilege of using Ins Lame, uud tne.-.o are backed by the ultra peaco men, who argue that McCleilan Is too much of a war democrat, and that the country need* and demands a statesman, a civilian, and not a soldier. Notwithstanding all this, however, there is still a Arm impression thut Governor Seymour will'be chosen ['resident of the Convention, and that be will nominate McCleilan, and it is very general'y believed that should this occur any oppoeitioa to hlui will fce too weak to ami unt to anything. There is some talk that In the event of McCleilan 's nomination a bolt will occur, another convention be called, and an ultra peace man nominated. The McClei lan ilea disbelieve ttiiB, but say thai should such a course be pursued its only eflect will be to strengthen their can didate. It should bave been stated in the despatch of this mornirg that the conservative Union men withdrew ibe recommendation of ex-Governor Campbell, of Tennessee, just previous to the adoption of the resolution. It is estimated that there aro at least twenty* Ave thou sand strangers in this city, who have come to watch the proceedings of the conventions here. The wigwam where it will be held has been crowded with visitors all day. lhe building, erected for this special object, is capable of accommodating fifteen thousand persons. It is in the form of an nmpbitheatro, and is well llchtcd tand ventilated, and neatly decorated, anil is beautifully situated on the shorn of Lake Michigan. The delegates to tbo Convention will occupy a platform In tho centre, which is capable of testing toveral hundred. Ciikvo. August 2i? 11 P. M. Very little change in the exacted programme of to morrow lias oocurrod during the day. This afternoon there mi- . meeting of the anti McCleilan delegates for con nl; dion, and after a compromise of views, it was found that representatives from fifteen or sixteen dif. fercut St ites preferred Seymour to MClellan, favoring his nomination by way of compromise between the peace men and th? war democracy. Most of them, how *el'Ur, fiy# hietnbors of delegations "that are required to vote us a unit. Governor Seymour this afternoon positively declined to 'permit his oiimii to be used, and nobody else is tolked of r tor president of tbo convention. The positive with drawal of Seymour's name encourages tbo MrCteliamtes to hope that bo will receive a two-third vote on tno first or second ballot. < A loiter, writen by Millard Fillmore to Hiram Ketchum,| in which ho expresses the hope that McCleilan will receive the nomination, is published iti tho Timet to-day. lhe New York delegation were in session to nigh'., and after a free interchange of opinion it was virtually re solved to cast the vote of the Stato for McCIolian. The timl vote of tho delegation will be taken to-morrow morning. The Mail Convention of the ComerT?> live Aatlunat Cm tun Men. Chicago, August 27, 1804.
