Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.from North Carolina. Raleigh, May 27, 1861. Your correspondent had the pleasure on yesterday of attending the Convention now in session at Raleigh. A resolution was offered by Mr. Speed, of Pasquotank, to the effect that, under the circumstances of the case, it would be inexpedient for any member of the Convention to be appointed a member of the Congress of the Confederate States. Laid on the table. The body numbers among its members some of the most distinguished sons of the old North State, among whom I noticed Hons. Wm. A. Graham, Mr. Gilmer, and Ex-Gov. Reid. I was shown on yesterday by Hon. Mr. Edwards, President of the Convention, a telegram announcing the fact that President Davis was then at Montgomery. Yours, truly, Oats.
