JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., April 28 [1862].

The Governor to-day issued his proclamation, convening the State Convention on the first Monday in June, at this place. The principal use given is that the State ought to be re-districted so as to give Missouri the two additional representatives in Congress to which she is entitled, under the lat ration of representation. It is thought that a full attendance of members will be had.
