Xkw York, April 23. The TrtiuifChar- ! leston correspondence of April 22d says the , New York Softs have organised formally ( by electing Dean Ilicbntond, chairman, and Peter Cagger and James C. Spencer of St. I Lawrence county as Secretaries. The three seats claimed by John C. Laucy, August j Belmont and Johnson to fill vacancies in the New York city delegation, and one va- 1 cancy in the place of Sidney Lawrence, of Franklin county, were referred to a com- 1 tnittee consisting of Isaac Fowler, Sanford E. Church, Lemuel Stehon and Wm. F. : Russel, who wiil report to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock. The Pennsylvania delegation held a meeting List night with a view of organizing and casting the vote of the State j solid. Senator Bigler was elected Chairman j over ex-Senator Brodhead, by a vote of 28 j to 23, there being three absentees. This is ' only an expression of personal preference

and no practical test of the proclivities of the delegation. Glossbrenner and Cassidv were chosen Secretaries, nnd Mr. Dawson Spokesman. An important point, was a resolution offered by Mr. Phillips that the delegation should vote as a unit in the Convention. This movement, though tiot miexpected, was denounced by Mr. Congressman Montgomery as a surprise, lie said he would not permit his vote to he cost by another, nnd threatened to talk till 1T0 before permitting the adoption of (ho resolution. He finally left the meeting in' a jsgion but was not followed by others. Pennsylvania is divided between Breckinridge ami Guthrie, with a preponderance in favor of the former, who will probably get the vote of the State. The South is visibly closing ite ranks since they liave compared opinions, and since members of Congress and other inHiiential pei?ons have arrived. The delegates of Alabamn, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, and Florida, have held a conference, presided over by Gov, Moutou, at which, they have resolved to stand by the Alabama platform, nuless the candidates are perfectly acceptable. Mr. Douglass friends from the Northweal and elsewhere, met. at their head-ouar-ters last night, and proclaimed the alternative of his nomination or the defeat of the party. The Time correspondent at Charleston writes on the 22d : The feeling for and against Wood's dele gation is intense. The National Committee have decided to give the tickets of admission to the other I wing. Rumor says that Wood has been re-inforccd by the presence of 50 fighting tneu from New York, aud that he will attempt a cony d'etat. His friends deny this. He will nppeal from the decision of the committee. The Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont aud Rhode Island delegates are counted on us sure for Douglas. Ciiaiilkston, April 23. p. m. The committee on credentials are now in session, hearing arguments in the New York case. The following i a copy of the protest presented to the Convention by the Hardshell delegates : " St. Anuickw 8 H. 1 April 23, 1860. j T tlte Chairman if Ou- vt:nuul (A'turn&otl.. v, - y si ia Sin: Tile un let-signed. Chairman and Secielaries of the delegation from the Slate j of New York, representing the organization of the Democratic party in said State, have been directed by the delegates to present to I the Convention over whic h you preside, that I by the action of Mr. Smalley, Chairman of the late National Convention, they have i been excluded from lhe Hall iu which the Convention has been assembled, and persons in no way entitled have beeu al- I lowed to occupy their duces. Therefore. ;n behalf of the delegation from the State of" I New York, we protest against their exclusion, while the persons referred to, who appear here as contestants lo our rights, are permitted to occupy our scat, in advance of an investigation by the Convention ; and Whilst we claim no advantage over our opponents, we shall not submit to any lid vantage wrongfully obtained over us. Resiiectfully, vour oti dl servants, FERNANDO WOOD, Chairman. W. B. Fallet. 1 1 G. 1 DOKEK, Nuvv Yoitic, April 23. The Tfibime' correspondenl at Charleston of the 2 1st, says: The delegates from New York and the North-west have combined for Douglas, I on condition that the latter will follow lhe j former in the event of his defeat, thus trausferriag to him 10J. votes. The present count ' of the Douglas vote in the North-west is j 60 Missouri 'j, New Raghtad 18, (exclusive of Mass.,) Maryland 4, New York 35. To- I tal 132, without New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and scattering Southern votes. South Carolina will probably vote for Davis. New Jersey stands 11 for Breckin- : ridge, 3 for Douglas, counting double delegates. Butter wqr Lli, Burden, Belmont, and ! Clancy will get seats in the New York dele- j gation. Belmont goes openly for Douglas, j Watts Sherman also desires a seat, and may procure a vacancy like the others. The Convention w ill decide on a platform first. The Alabama delegation met this evening, and resolved to submit their platform, 1 and unless substantially adopted, to withdraw without any other demonstration. The Mississippi delegation may follow. It is now ascertained that Douglas will i only get 4J Missouri votes, and 2 from Ma- , ryland, and probably no other, from the South. The Massachusetts delegation met 1 to-day, and will give him 6 votes. Washington, Apr. 23d.
