We publish lo-diy, the -proceedings of t! Territorial Convention. hi'U in this city on last Tuesday. There were a very Urge number In attendance, aside from the regularly appointed delegates and we are sorry to say, that a part of the crowd whirh came from Omnha, attended for the express a id avow$J pun .0 of disturbing tlie deliberations of the people who were tent here ly their constituents and finally to break up the Convention . in a row. But thanks to the energy and deci.ion of the President and other mem ten, lur'.aincd ky our efficient Mayor- lacked ly the firm and dot p-r oted de termination of the law-abiding citizen of Bullcvue to put down at all hazard, the turbulent, mob which were imported from a certain location for that purpose. In giving exprenion to our feeling in re gard to this ntuttcr, we do not wish to be understood, that we charge that every one who came from Omaha were actuated y the tame feelings and purposes on the contrary we know that there were gentlemen from Omaha, who deprecated the action taken by a few from that place high-minded, honorable gentlemen, who would acorn to invade the deliberations of a body of freemen, who, in accordance with the usage, aud agreeable to a right guarantied to them by the Constitution and laws of our common count y, were p.aceably congregated together for the purpose of expressing their views, and selecting a repretentativ in whom to re pose the highest trust within the power of the people of the Territory to confer. But for tho present, wo will let this pass. The Convention mrt in the forenoon at the . School-House, for the purpose of a preliminary' organization, which leing had, they adjourned to meet at 2 o'clock P. M., for the purpose of a permanent organization adoption: the reports of committees and the selection of a candi date. At the time appointed the houe was crowded with a somewhat mixed ero vd, among whom we made our ap pearance. The boys hud some fun in the way of speech making all pniscd off in good humor, and it was nearly 3 o'clock before the delegates appeared After the delegates took their teats, and the permanent officers had assumed their duties, the first in order was the report of the committee ou Credentials. When Douglas county was called, Gov. Cum ing, although not appointed as a dele gate, asked leave to present a few re marks which, through th courtesy of tho President lion. S. A. Strickland, was permitted. He was immediate ly fol lowed I y another out-sider, an erotic and facetious individual from Burt county, I y the name of Col. Harrington, who seem to glory in having " th nerve " to speak his mind when and where he r leasts, provnlcd he does not infringe upon the ru'es. After the tirrroui man hod taken hi seat, the President distinctly informed the meeting that he would listen to no one, who was not a delega'e -but not' wiihstrnling this ennouwt' tn-ut, Gov. Curoming insisted upon bein heard, and Icing properly refused I y the President the out-siders near the door interfered and seemed determined thai he should be heard and confusion worse confound d reijrned supreme. The President was undecided only for a moment his keen eye detected all around and among the mob a moral and a physical fort suffi cient to quell the disturbance, and I ke a man, he mounted his chair, rapped his hammer and succeeded in rettorinir some thing like order. He then informed tbem that we had a Mayor, Marshal and a Sheriff of the county, who were on the gromd, an J that the delegates were not to be driven from a house lo which they l.ad been admitted that he knew the cit izens of Bellevue would sustain orde, and not permit a mob to deter them from doin their duty. When he took his seat, our Mayor, Mr. Jennings, asked leave to say a fews w rJs, when he informed tbem that the school house had been piven to the delegates for the purpose of holding their convention, end that they ibould be protected in their rights at all hazards. The Mayor being a large, ponly, good looking man, and withal a (j'oi fithtfr in a good cause, he wa list- f ned to respectfully and like tihool-boys they quailed beneath his loo'i. After orJer was restored the Conven tion proceeded to business, for the particu lars of whirh we refer to their proceedings. After the first ballot it was evident that no selecion could le made from the randi dates before the Convention; Gen. Bowtit, volun'arily resigned in favor of Judye Fergujon. It had been rumored that this Convention was Rotten tip I y a eliqut for the purpose of not nil Hiring Gen. Bowen. aud all aorta of stories and surmises were circulated and believed, and in order to prove the falary of such stories, Chief Justice Ferguson, than whom, no better or more uprighf man exists in the Terri tory, was nnsolicittd on hi part, prevailed upon to take the nomination, and no one was more Industrious In bringing about the ronsuma ion of this object than Gen B owen. So fearful was a pnrt of the del egation from Washington county, thru f rant! and section" I strife wan to be mixed up in this matter, that bt for the Convention en tered into a I allot they withdrew. We are however, lengthening out this article to a gn ater extent than we nnt!c'pted when we begun, nnd ahull clode in a very few worda promising to ncur to it agnin. Chit f Justice Ft rguscn, is now our nom inee he is a man ipon whom all can unite he knows no sectional interests, and the prrple who do the voiintr hnve confidence in him. His character hi purity of life and his unspotted fame is far al ovv the r ach of pt Ity malice and envy, although their puny tlafts may be directed against him After his nomination, a com miltee wain d t pon him and he ap peand, and taking up the platform, he read each retolution commented upon them and finally accepted the nomination tendered to him, and in a beautiful and chas-te ipeech,rferrid tohispa services in this infant Territory r- marking in conclusrn, that his duty forbid his resigna tion os Chief Justice, before the 22J inst., a he had to meet his brethren of the Judiciary, to adjust some important mutters in regard to the interetts of litigant lut when these decisions were given, he would cheerfully resignattend to the call of the convention imposed upon him and labor to secure the position to which th ir friend ship and partiality l.nd assigned him. He was cheered ly the crowd, and on 'a'uncr his seat Grn. Bowen was cnllt d upou nnd reponde4 in a 6hort and telling speech, endorsing the action of the convention,nnd aid, he wus rei dy o go into the fight and would labor faithfully to secure the trium phant success ef the nominee. We therefore this week, take down the name of Gen. Bowen, and raise that of Judge Fertrusion the peoples candidate, feeling snti.fied that the ycomnnry cf the country the voters, will endorse the se- ocuon oi me convention. TERRITORIAL, t OXVEXTIOtf.
