THE NINTH DISTRICT.
Ends in the Triumph of Gar
nett McMillan Over Ben
Hill.
AN EXCiTINC STRUGGLE !
Twenty-live Ballots the First Day
and Twenty-two the Second.
The Forty-seventh the
Decisive One.
FULL REPORT OF THE MATTER.
CONORRSHIOJiAL. SOMISATIUKS.
Oar special dispatches state thftt Capt. W.
£. Smith has beeu nominated for Congress in
the second district and Hon. Garnett McMil
lan in the 9th district.
Our special report of the contest in the tth
between Mr. Hill and Mr. McMillan will be
found to be very interesting. The Hkbald
had two special reporters at the Convention j
in view of the deep interest felt in the resalt,
who were instraoted to send couriers horse
back rapidly to the Air-Line .Railroad and
dispatch us at the earliest moment As a
gentleman remarked yesterday, there should
be a law passed requiring nominating conven
tions to be held on the railroads, in order that
the eagerness of the people ior the news can
be patified.
Mr. McMillan began the contest by with
over ten majority over Mr. Hill, and maintain
ed it to the ’ast, finally triumphing.
The nominee is a good man and will make
a fine Congressman.
THE *OMl.>AHO\ IX Til K riFTH.
By reference to an acconnnt of the pro
ceedings at the Griffin Convention to nomi
nate a candidate for Congress, it will be seen
that Col. It A. Alston, who was a candidate,
never did receive the vote of his own county,
through eighty-six ballots. It is true his
name wes proposed by the chairman of the
delegation, but the vote was transferred to
Hammond before the le.Milt was announced,
so that in fact he did n^t get the vote of De-
Kalb in a single ballot. Considering the fact
that there was a clear and explicit agreement
between Gen. Gordon and Mr. Candler that if
Col. Alston would de line to oppose Mr.
Candler in the com.ly convention, that Mr.
Caudler’s friends would go to the Convention
equally Col. Alston’s friends, this certainly
was very bad treatment, and when Co). Al
ston was inlormed of it he naturally felt very
indignant, and he freely and forcibly ex
pressed his determination not to sup
port a nomination which was obtained by i
such a direct and inexcusable insnlt
ns be received in having Lis name proposed
and then withdrawn, without giving him the
opportunity of a single ballot, and that too,
by the delegation from his own county, who
were sent there with the expectation that they
would actively support him. However, when
he came to consider that his refusal to support
the nominee of the party, might produce a j •“*7 • * u * ht variation. After the 47th billot, W.
schism which would end in the election of L Pike, of Jackson county, withdrew Hill’s name,
Freeman, he promptly decided to lay aside ; when W. E. Simmons, of Gwtunelt, ui>ved toi.mni
his personal grievance and give Mr. Candler j note Game it McMillan, of Haht-rah: iu county, by ac-
his warm and hearty support. This decision j domation. which motion was carried unanimously.

It is said that Tilton's forthcoming state
ment, besides meeiug all tho points in
BeecJior’s statement, will also embrace all the
answers in fall to Mri. Tilton’s testimony and
statement. The later part will consist of a
compilation of extract* from letters to refute
her obarg-34 of cruelty. Ho will also give a
full history of his connection with Bowen.
The declaration of Moulton thit he would
publish his li st statement i i full, caused in
tense excitement yesterday. His residence
wrs fairly bosi* god by members of the press,
eager to get advance sheets of the interesting
document, which m y possibly put a new
aspect on the cjse.
lit re are reports of a coming suit by
ILfv.hr-r ngoiost Tilton, Moulton hu 1 C *r. en
ter ior conspiracy and bltckm iil. Ti» o re-
c,.rt«, however, Tilton’s friends hold in
derision.
li.eeher’S friends claim that Tilton’s sup
porters are circulating false reports with a
view ot irjnii-jg the Plymouth pastor They
accuse them ot circulating tho report that h
large number of the members and p^w-helders
m I’lymcnth Church ere deter mined to resign
membership and form a separate Church.
Tfiis Beechers friends siy is nutrae.
It is tnoogbt Moulton’s own commesfs and
constructions wilt bo a moat important and
interesting document. Many left- rs are un
dated and assigned, their interpretation
therefore is doubtful. One letter from Mrs.
Tiitou to Beecher m particularly outspoken,
aad its genuineness will be disputed. It is
claimtd that it never reached Beecher, and
that it i4 manufactured. Should Mrs. Hook
er's letters bj included it will undoubtedly
cieate a sensation. Tar-re are said to bo let
ters Dorn T. K. Beecher to M s. Hooker, siy-
i:.g he believts in his brother’s guilt, but
justifies him on the adv.icco ot his social
vie vs.
That part of Moulton's statement refuting
;ii2 of hjaclim »i!;ng hasb rt eucarefully
prepared by General Bader. Moulton wiil
a Lnit cf re.’j.V'U^ money, bat will attempt to
disprove tho charge t-f bh-.cknuiling.
The Graphic this afternoon publishes an
interview with a gentleman who arrived h le
t evening, having been summoned in con-
•. :i with tho Tilton suit against Boecher.

lawyers and members of the committee,
beii.-g a’ C i b ally compelled by the conviction
that Moult-n was goiag to acquaint tho com
mittee of the tacts iu h;s possess!ou. Moulton
iu his statement withheld thesj facts uuder-
stauuiug tod Beecher would publicly confess
wit t ne had privoMy acknowledged. Ou or
about the 6 b of August B ocher summoned
certain m mbers of the Committee and 8hei- pnrse_ of *o()0,
man and Tracy i*> bis house and confessed to
them Lis intimacy with Mre. Tilton. His
friends we-r.; astonished, and af .cr consulting
they decided it would be fatal Jo biui to pub
lish it, and asked him to witbuo d his cdu-
1ls: io:i ior the j iv-s^nt and let them viedinte
him in the eves of the public, but Bjccher
was decid'd nud argued that it would be
much better that he should have credit for
confession. Kniwiug this to be tho b«st
course Moulton advised a peaceful settlement
ot the difS-’uIty, and restrained Tilton from

something to eay about the McDuffie Democracy. , ing : Resolved, that the Democracy ol the Ninth
Toil state that we had a “Convention to nominate a Congressional District, here assembled in convention
candidate for the Legislature, and flew the track of
Democratic usage and adopted a majority rule, and as
a consequence the minority bolted the convention
and will make a separate nomination.” As e matter
•f explanation I desire to say that you were In error
in stating that the “minority bolted” when the ma
jority rule wae adopted. We were not “boltera” on
that account, or any other. We aimply withdrew
from the cot.veniion when the vote cc the adoption
of the mtjo ty rule had not been more than half ta
ken. because nn'airness, illegalities and frand were
practiced lu the general raike-up and action of the
convention and in the vote on the majority rule as far
as had been taken. We retired from the honse and
called another convention, which was held to-day.

EXCITEMENT IN ODPELL, ILLINOIS, OVER
ARREST or THE KIDNAPPER —
CONFLICTING TESTIMONY
[BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.]
CmcAGo, Au£UBt 20.—There is nthl a greit
excitement at Udell, liiinois, because ot the
suspected |»re-euo3 in that village, of little
Chirlie Ross, who«e Yb lucion from PatauF 1-
piua, has occasionsd so much comment ot
late. Tlxt* mull Diuigtu* and ihe woman (tale,
arc under arrest there, and the child is v.itli
them. The woman Cute, claims that he is her
grandchild, and calls him Jimmy. The Hcii-
dersou pailies in Odell, who either hove or
imagine they have the means of identifying
;he child, say they are positive he is the miss
ing Charlie Boss. But a lady from Bloom
ington, who claims to know him, and a gen
tleman from Chicago, who has his picture,
fail to sse any resemblance. It ta thought
that iu any event Dung an and tho woman
have had the boy, hot have sat needed in spir
iting him away until the storm blows over.
Yet, with Dnrginin custody, it will ro», if
this hypothesis proves true, be very difficult
to secure the missing boy.
Yesterday afternoon the suspected pirties
were taken before a local magistrate, but in
coiiMilUtiou, the trial was postponed until
Saturday, to have witnesses from Philadel
phia.

been reached he was a leugth ahead. He
gradually increased this distance
until at tbs three quarter pole, he waa

The second mite was finished in the muio

craft showed as frrsh as at tho beginning of
the race, and Wanderer showed no signs of
fatigue. When about two mites and a quar

signs of failing stre? gth, and fell to tbe roar,
responding to the efforts of her Jockey by
tensing her he id and tail impatiently.
The next half a mile Feilowcraft insreas d
