[ÜT TKI I- UtAlll TO THK TIUBI'NF.l CnATTAVooaA, Oat 14..The Outrage Convention aecoiiipli-ahctl even les« during Hi »ln>rt «lay session to-day than yesterday. Several delegates wer« afraid that there algM still be some present who lind no plat en em committees, and so proposed the appointment of «evrral more anti the enlargement nfsoniu of thone committee, already raised. Some of (ho colored member««! woro afnud that, unless the "Committee on Outragea," they t«imed the Com¬ mittee on Facts and Statistic«, was increased two o; three fold, some of them would bo killed ot) Mm the meeting of Con Kitmt, and destroy MM «pioruin of the Committee. This proposition met with little favor, and after «ome «lebate upon it the Cou vent ion raised a Conunitteo on School« and one on Printing, arid adjourned until evening. UM mn«t of the day wa« spent by the deleítales in visiting th« mountains, or the Agrii alt ural Fair now in ses-iion heie, or in lounging around the lintels. When the Convention met in the evening the Committee on Outrages reported that it had held one meeting, but that the number of outrages reported from the Southern State« was so great that tin- Committee had found it impossible to do any tiling with thom. They asked, therefore, that tin» Committee be continued after the adj iiiriiinent ol the Convention, with power to report once in three months euch outrages as might como to their knowledge. This report brought to his feet the Hon. Jefferson Long (colored) ex member of Congress from Georgia, who ma'lo a very excited speech. Ho said that the report of tho Outrage Committee was not what this Convention, not what the country, had » right to expect. It would not bo satisfactory to the people. He carne here to represent those in other Statis who had not sent delegates here. If this was all that wanto be done Um Convention would bo a failure, and might as will have held no ¦(HItint If the Committee had not time to-day, or to-morrow, to get the out¬ rage! together, he moved that the Convention plant its Hag on the mountains of Tennessee and stay lu re till the facts wero obtained. Ho wantetl, and the people of (ieorcia wanted, the bloody outrages. Col. Myer«, tho Chaiimau, defended the Com¬ mittee for its action. He said that the reports of outrages in Georgia alone, which hail becu submit¬ ted to the Committee, would make a monument, but that the delegates from that State asseited that it included not more than one-tenth of those which ¦fehl be reported. The object ol this Committee wa« to get the fact« before Congress aud the country. The «lebate on the acceptance of the report threat¬ ened for a time to produce a serious mi-iiinlci.taud- ing in the Convention. A portion of the edelgate* were anxioiisTtbat the " bloody re««ord " that had been brought here, and which tiny «le.-aire to use in the campaign during tho remainder of this month, should be given to the country at once in the shape of a report. Another faction desired to use the "outragea'' to indue«». Congresa to pas« further laws, and they contexte.I that the document could bo made much mon« effect¬ ive if tho Committee were given time to compile and nrranife the matter. When the resolutions had been read fheTttUU delegation at once moved to add a resolution con¬ demning t!ie J) nun rutie gen wnaiitki in;,' Unir State, and calling upon CoogMH tu interfere to «iM-rttirn it. This was imr-t«! with some warmth, but as an agreem nt to it would interfere with the piiris'se of the managers of the Convention, which was to adopt tin« plat lunn as a whole, and thus shut oil ilehat'' on speeitic fjuestions, which Bight cause much trouble, it was withdrawn. The platform was uiianiinoiifly adopted. The «leleuati-s from North Carolina, when tho representatives of thal Btetfl were called upon to vote, said that, altlmimh the State voted in tho aflirmative, they knew of no outrages that bad been committed in their Mate within the last l'i months, and that the citizens of that btate, no matter what their politics or what their rate, were M safe in North Carolina as in Mas¬ sachusetts. Tho Convention did not applaud this announcement. The old North State i" not in the hands of the friends of Grant's admiui.-tiation. After the adoption nf the platform, the resolution in relation to the gerrvmandi ring of Texas was ¡main brought up. and a very unprofitable debate resulted, as to whether this Convention had any¬ thing to do with tho question or not. After its pas¬ sage, a colored delegate from Georgia introduced a resolution denouncing the mendacity of agents ti tho Associated Press in the ¡south, and itl misrepre¬ sentation of Republican«, in which they customarily indulge. .Mr. Clayton said that he wi-hed to make an explanation. Herein Chattanooga the agent of the ¡Associated Press wa« a Republican, but, strange to say, when this Convention wa« to meet, orders were sent to him here to employ the editor of the Democratic paper to make the reports of it. This resolution was almost unanimously adopted. Late in the vening Senator West read the addles« to the people of the United States.

The Com¬ mittee on Correapondence announced that they were ready to report, aud presented a letter from ex-Gov. Davis of Texas, and another from Mr. Brewster of Ala¬ bama, which were read.

He favored compulsory education by Congressional enactment, and piompt relief when the Stat« offices an seised by fraud aud corruption. The North Carolina delegation, the Hon. W. E.

The Cninuiitieeon Facts and Statistic» of Outrages as.ed for further time in which lu make their report. A reso¬ lution was offered »ranting further time, continuing tho Ciiuiuilttee iiidetliiltely, and lusiructiiig them to report to Congress every three months. Jdl Lunn; (colored) of Qeorgia urged that the report be made at once, and proposed to plant the Conveution on the in,,iini,lins of Tennessee until these facts were lu -ii-'lif out. He moved that this Committee do not aiijouru until It h id the report of the bloody outrages; let the widows of those who have died at the ballot-box wiih the Republican ti -kets In their hands come up and show their wroiiKS I The oblect of this Convention is to secure the mighty ann of the nation to uphold those who have been imposed upon. While ho loved the Civil Kights bill, they needed protection at the ballot box more than anything else. Mr. Myers of Arkansas, Chairman of the Committee, said it would have taken two weeks to have rooeived the statements from Georgia. If this Convention was to remain in session until this Committee could report, the delegates would be lo a bad condition, as thcro was no appropriation for their support. Senator Clayton of Arkansas moved that all speeches in debate be limited to five minutes, and that no dele¬ gate be allowed to speak more thau once on the tame question. Mr. Gi ay (colored) of Mississippi hoped the resolution would not pa.«w«, aud wanted the time extended to tweuty minutes. Mr. Sheets of Alabama, thought that the Committee could tell what time they ueeded to report. He thought five minutes was too long for anybody to give his oplu- lou on auy subject be knew nothing about. [Laughter.] The five minutes r ile was then adopted. Mr. Turner of Georgia, said there waa a disposition to dodge the most vital questions ever submitted to a people. [He referred to limiting speeches to five minutes.] The Coiumittee had not said anything about the nature of the outrages. We are to be gagged by this live minute rule, when our country is lu so weak and pusillanimous a condition that it cannot protect its cltiZ'.-us. Ho was opposed to that report. It was a whitewashed report. [Heie the hammer fell] Senator Clayton of Arkansas claimed the floor, ne said these facts and statements were not to Influence Northern elections, but to Influence legislation, and Congress did not meet until December. Why not then give the Committee time to gather the facts. He pro¬ posed to appoint nu Executive Committee, to whom this Committee should report. Ho wanted the facts spread before the country. God knows that the facts are enough. He thought the Com¬ mittee should report at the assembling of Congress, and as rutieh ottener as necessary. He made ttic motion for the appointment of an Lxccutivo Committee of one from each State, six to constitute a quorum, to meet lu Washington on the first Monday of December next, with power to do «null business as they deem proper, and to call a Convention when considered necessary. The motion was adopted, and then the report was amended so as to call for a detailed report of outrages by Die. 1 to the Executive Committee at Washington from each member of the Committee.

aecoiiipli-ahctl even les« during Hi »ln>rt «lay sessionto-day than yesterday. Several delegates wer«afraid that there algM still be some present wholind no plat en em committees, and so proposed theappointment of «evrral more anti the enlargementnfsoniu of thone committee, already raised. Someof (ho colored member««! woro afnud that, unless the"Committee on Outragea," a» they t«imed the Com¬mittee on Facts and Statistic«, was increased two o;three fold, some of them would bo killed ot) Mmthe meeting of Con Kitmt, and destroy MM «pioruin ofthe Committee. This proposition met with littlefavor, and after «ome «lebate upon it the Cou vent ionraised a Conunitteo on School« and one on Printing,arid adjourned until evening.UM mn«t of the day wa« spent by the deleítales

in visiting th« mountains, or the Agrii alt ural Fairnow in ses-iion heie, or in lounging around thelintels. When the Convention met in the eveningthe Committee on Outrages reported that it hadheld one meeting, but that the number of outragesreported from the Southern State« was so great thattin- Committee had found it impossible to do anytiling with thom. They asked, therefore, that tin»Committee be continued after the adj iiiriiinent olthe Convention, with power to report once in threemonths euch outrages as might como to theirknowledge. This report brought to hisfeet the Hon. Jefferson Long (colored) exmember of Congress from Georgia, who ma'lo a

very excited speech. Ho said that the report of thoOutrage Committee was not what this Convention,not what the country, had » right to expect. Itwould not bo satisfactory to the people. He carne

here to represent those in other Statis who had not

sent delegates here. If this was all that wanto bedone Um Convention would bo a failure, and mightas will have held no ¦(HItint If the Committeehad not time to-day, or to-morrow, to get the out¬rage! together, he moved that the Convention plantits Hag on the mountains of Tennessee and stay lu re

till the facts wero obtained. Ho wantetl, and thepeople of (ieorcia wanted, the bloody outrages.Col. Myer«, tho Chaiimau, defended the Com¬

mittee for its action. He said that the reports ofoutrages in Georgia alone, which hail becu submit¬ted to the Committee, would make a monument,but that the delegates from that State asseited thatit included not more than one-tenth of those which

¦fehl be reported. The object ol this Committeewa« to get the fact« before Congress aud thecountry.The «lebate on the acceptance of the report threat¬

ened for a time to produce a serious mi-iiinlci.taud-ing in the Convention.A portion of the edelgate* were anxioiisTtbat the

" bloody re««ord " that had been brought here, andwhich tiny «le.-aire to use in the campaign during thoremainder of this month, should be given to thecountry at once in the shape of a report. Anotherfaction desired to use the "outragea'' to indue«».Congresa to pas« further laws, and they contexte.Ithat the document could bo made much mon« effect¬ive if tho Committee were given time to compileand nrranife the matter.When the resolutions had been read fheTttUU

delegation at once moved to add a resolution con¬

demning t!ie J) nun rutie gen wnaiitki in;,' oí UnirState, and calling upon CoogMH tu interfere to«iM-rttirn it. This was imr-t«! with some warmth,but as an agreem nt to it would interfere with thepiiris'se of the managers of the Convention, whichwas to adopt tin« plat lunn as a whole, and thus shutoil ilehat'' on speeitic fjuestions, which Bight cause

much trouble, it was withdrawn. The platform was

uiianiinoiifly adopted. The «leleuati-s from NorthCarolina, when tho representatives of thal Btetflwere called upon to vote, said that, altlmimh theState voted in tho aflirmative, they knew of no

outrages that bad been committed in their Matewithin the last l'i months, and that the citizens ofthat btate, no matter what their politics or whattheir rate, were M safe in North Carolina as in Mas¬sachusetts. Tho Convention did not applaud thisannouncement. The old North State i" not in thehands of the friends of Grant's admiui.-tiation.After the adoption nf the platform, the resolution

in relation to the gerrvmandi ring of Texas was

¡main brought up. and a very unprofitable debateresulted, as to whether this Convention had any¬thing to do with tho question or not. After its pas¬sage, a colored delegate from Georgia introduced a

resolution denouncing the mendacity of agents titho Associated Press in the ¡south, and itl misrepre¬sentation of Republican«, in which they customarilyindulge. .Mr. Clayton said that he wi-hed to makean explanation. Herein Chattanooga the agent ofthe ¡Associated Press wa« a Republican, but,strange to say, when this Convention wa« to meet,orders were sent to him here to employ the editor ofthe Democratic paper to make the reports of it.This resolution was almost unanimously adopted.Late in the vening Senator West read the addles«to the people of the United States.

lution was offered »ranting further time, continuing thoCiiuiuilttee iiidetliiltely, and lusiructiiig them to reportto Congress every three months. Jdl Lunn; (colored) ofQeorgia urged that the report be made at once, andproposed to plant the Conveution on thein,,iini,lins of Tennessee until these facts were

lu -ii-'lif out. He moved that this Committee do not

aiijouru until It h id the report of the bloody outrages;let the widows of those who have died at the ballot-boxwiih the Republican ti -kets In their hands come up andshow their wroiiKS I The oblect of this Convention is to

secure the mighty ann of the nation to uphold thosewho have been imposed upon. While ho loved the CivilKights bill, they needed protection at the ballot boxmore than anything else.Mr. Myers of Arkansas, Chairman of the Committee,

said it would have taken two weeks to have rooeivedthe statements from Georgia. If this Convention was

to remain in session until this Committee could report,the delegates would be lo a bad condition, as thcro was

no appropriation for their support.Senator Clayton of Arkansas moved that all speeches

in debate be limited to five minutes, and that no dele¬

gate be allowed to speak more thau once on the tame

question.Mr. Gi ay (colored) of Mississippi hoped the resolution

would not pa.«w«, aud wanted the time extended to tweutyminutes.Mr. Sheets of Alabama, thought that the Committee

could tell what time they ueeded to report. He thoughtfive minutes was too long for anybody to give his oplu-lou on auy subject be knew nothing about. [Laughter.]The five minutes r ile was then adopted. Mr. Turnerof Georgia, said there waa a disposition to dodge themost vital questions ever submitted to a people. [Hereferred to limiting speeches to five minutes.] TheCoiumittee had not said anything about the nature ofthe outrages. We are to be gagged by this live minute

rule, when our country is lu so weak and pusillanimousa condition that it cannot protect its cltiZ'.-us. Ho was

opposed to that report. It was a whitewashed report.[Heie the hammer fell]Senator Clayton of Arkansas claimed the floor, ne

said these facts and statements were not to InfluenceNorthern elections, but to Influence legislation, and

Congress did not meet until December. Why not thengive the Committee time to gather the facts. He pro¬posed to appoint nu Executive Committee, to whom

this Committee should report. Ho wanted thefacts spread before the country. God knows

that the facts are enough. He thought the Com¬

mittee should report at the assembling of Congress, andas rutieh ottener as necessary. He made ttic motion forthe appointment of an Lxccutivo Committee of one

from each State, six to constitute a quorum, to meet lu

Washington on the first Monday of December next,with power to do «null business as they deem proper,and to call a Convention when considered necessary.The motion was adopted, and then the report was

amended so as to call for a detailed report of outrages
