As soon as thc rcjxirt was rea 1 and bl
fore the question on iti adoption was
ont the Chair Rqueeted all peraons not
delegates to retire, ami invoked tin*
assistance of thc* sergeant at-urns to tins
end. The contestants and their friends
protested loudly, but several assistants to
the sergeant-at-arass were appointed.
They only inooseded in a very small
neaeure in bettering tbe condition of
things, and ns to netting the speets
tura to retire, it wai RC use, for
they had no idea of doing any such
thin*?. They went as far as tho out
side railing, but further than this they
would Rot badge, and tim scrgeaut at
aruis and his assistants could do nothing
whatever.
CHRRRBI OR KAROBR,
Ned Thompson arose, and in s few
v -tibia nords Riged bis friends to
retire in jnace, assuring them tbut full
justice would ba dona all parties iute
rested.
Borne ono near thc door cried oat
" Mahone.'"
Pis name provoked ol
Thompson Bsenred his frieuda that ho
waa for Mahout and would see that full
justice was done him, too. [Prolonged
cheers from the Mahone sympathizers,
who were n^ar tbe door;. Mr. Wise,
while not pleased with this little episode,
loot it cooliy, Baaing that he held the
sti.iuj.vr hand.
When the room became moderately
ipnet tho vote on the rtport of tbs Com
mitUa on Credentials waa taken, and at
first tho chairman stated that it was
adopted by 2.". to J'-'. Several colored
sovereigns sprang to their feet, claimed
that the count was not as stated, and
they unhesitatingly charged fraud.
A sectmd vote waa taken and the re?
port adopted?ayes, 28 ; nota, tl.
MAHONBIT-8 RBTIBB.
About this time there waa a little con?
ference about tha door, aad from tha
wire-working seen it was evident that
(oni-thin-* waa about to occur to change
MB tide of ev. ipa. Muhone's moo wore
Quietly nt work, and they soon allowed
their hand. Several prominent Jla
li'iu iles mot RMBtben of tho commit?
tee) snd the ousted delegates walked to?
wards the door, aud some ono set Bp the
cry " This trill/ fur Mitlinur ! "
NO M.,ncr was this said than delegatea
to tho numlHT of nineteen took np their
overcoats and hits and walked ont. Snch
n step had been threatened by ono of
the contestants when thu committee re?
ported.
With firs in bia eyes Mr. Wiso, in a
very Bxcited manner .sprung lo his feet,
ami ? peaking loudly, said : " Mr. Chair?
man, now you see how true they are.
They were elected lo this 0* nvention and
seale I. and when they timi themselves
beaten they withdraw." This had no
??lie t whatever ; Um hue of march wns
kept nil There wns great con
fa ion, amid which Mr. Wise sud: "1
suppose whee I go over to Petersburg,
,i I be so unfortunate as to get
whipp ;1 as these have been?they will
expect me and my followers to with?
draw. But they nre wrong, ff f am
defeated I will t.iko it ns a man should,
and will, so help me God, fall ir. aft?r

Turner, in support of liis resolutions,
made a vi n common-sense short speech.
lb aaid he considered thia difference be?
tween Mr. Wise and General Mahone as
very unfortunate, Ile ha.I come to the
ution rather as a Mahone man, but
be proposed to discharge bis duty snd
nol to boll with his friends. Be mts for
of the party, ami be believed
il it vas brought as between the two
men Mahune was a stronger and better
leader than Wise.
Mr. Wise said under ordinary eirenm
fit.inci a he would not misc his voice in
oppoa tion to thanking General Mahone,
bnl after the manner in whi *h the letter
hud reci idly neted he could not do other?
wise than d.f.iid himself and his peo?
ple who had stood Iv him in manfully.
Ho waa vary Revere in his denunciation
of the underhanded manner in which
Mahone] ;ht to capture the Rich?
mond del* gatton.
.Mr. Wise alleged that Mahoi
not made an open, honest fight, but had
resoite.l to all kinds of corrupt methods.
w fruin his pocket pajvers which
l were in Mahon- i's own band
writing, in whieh the latter made calcu?
lations os to what he could do here and
how it could be done, Bi I
to say thst be did not mean to be read
out of the I.> publican party, lt was in
hm opinion moro probable that Mahone
would be.
Qeorge Mitchell (colored) favored the
resolutions offered by Turner and made a
veryplein, sensible speech, lb* thought
rations instructing tho
delegate! f* rWisewascarrying things too
far. He appreciate,! the valuable Ber*
i, but could not assent
to what he* nothing lesa than
??Bag-law."
Mr. Wise rejoined by saying thnt this
was no gag-law. Ha was frank to aay
that be minti d to be endorsed a** s dele
and it waa for this that
he had worked bo hard. Mitchell had
voted with the Mahons men, and after
being whipped, wanted to be token in
with the winners to share the benefits.
Ha wanted tha delegates instructed. .Mr.
Wise, iu the course of tin- speech, Bald
that in politics lie knew no
lina. He bi ld certain principles and
it was for these thit he fought If a
white and colona! man were riiriniri*_r ter
tin* Hiine oflice, and the former be con
si ler..t the best, ho would certainly vote
for him.

Mr. Wise here BSOved that the conven?
tion adjourn sabieet to tbe call of the
chairman, and this was agreed to. Ho
made this motion, he said, because there
waa other business which would require
careful consideration, such us he did not
think it would receive lust night. Be?
sides tho split, he thought, /Rould be
healed and the mutter (not men
tio'.ed, but supposed to bo under

intereattnl and would unite. At mid?
night tlie convention adjourned.
The following, taken from the call
for the precinct meetings which elected
the delegates to this convention, will ex?

tired, and during the interim tbs
ing was addressed by Edward Thompson,
who severely denounced the behavior of
Mr. Wise, ami characterized his fol?
lowers as "kickers." He concluded by
calling upon Mr. L\ P. Murphy tor I
flpeeon. Mr. Murphy complied, and
saul that he had, after a careful ol
timi, como to the conclusion that "John

treachery that we huve lost the city three

Democratic press was against Mahone,
and that was of itself a sufficient reason
for the black mon to support him.
