Nile is said to have endeared her self to every one on board. —Jefferson Davis’s plantation at Hurri cane, Mississippi, is leased by Mont gomery & Sons. This firm is composed of four negroes who were formerly owned by a brother of the ex-President of the Confederacy. They own plantations worth $75,000, hire several more, and do a large mercantile business at Vicksburg. —A Washington special to the World of the 1st instant, says that Thomas A. Edison was to-day granted a patent for a magnetic ore separator, which allows magnetic and non-magnetic substances to fall together, and then by magnetic at traction alters or changes the trajectory of the falling magnetic substances without Stopping its fall. —The count of noses last night at Chicago gives Grant, says the Courier Journal, on the first ballot, 300 votes; Blaine 300; John Sherman 100 and Ed munds a promising fifty votes. Sherman’s managers are reported confident that at the hreak-up he will draw handsomely; but Sherman prognostications are very un reliable. —The seventeen year locust has begun his pilgrimage, and is already making its appearance in considerable numbers in some of the southern counties of Ohio. Its first recorded appearance there was in 1795. It appeared again in 1812, and this time the great W on its wings was said to stand for war.

She will, it is said, bring to the ruler of Bulgaria a dowry of £%000,- 000, and expectation of a succession ap praised at between £2,000,000 and £3,- 000,000 a year more. .... — Edison’s Latest.—Mr. Edison, who has not been heard from lately, is reported by a correspondent of the Mew Yojk Herald to have succeeded in producing an electro-magnetic locomotive, which was run over a three-quarter mile railroad at Menlo Park on Saturday. Its speed was forty-two seconds from the beginning to the end of .the track. The operation of Ibe motor is not described. Mr. Edison Is also building a large factory for the manufacture of his electric lamps. It is to be finished by next September, when he proposes to light six miles of streets, the lamps being eighty feet apart, and will run Ills train over a three mile road, all the power being obtained from the sixteen dynamo machines now in position. —Dana Krura, one of the conductors on the Erie railroad, was approached be fore train time by an unknown man who spoke to him as if he had known him for years. “I say, Dana,” said he, “I have for gotten my pass, and I want to go to Sus quehanna; I am a fireman on the road, you know?” But the conductor told him he ought to have a pass with him. It was the safest way. Pretty soon Dana came along to collect tickets. Seeing liis man, he spoke when he reached him, “Say, my friend, have you the time with you?” “Yos,” said he, as he pulled out a watch, “it is twenty minutes past nine.” “Oh, it is, is it? Now, if you don’t show me your pass, or fare, I will stop tlie train. There is no railroad man that I ever saw who would say “twenty minutes past nine.” He would say “nine-twenty.” He settled. Senator Bayffrd for President. 59 .The gireat'statesman of- the Diamond 8 Th ® ' Ne *' 0rl . e . __ . . State, Thomas Bayard, who is almost ^cas.on f a visit>d inspection. bjMN idolized by his cotetitueni, is/nndoubt- authonUep of the Texas Paafic^ail-, choice of- thJ South for the road S** 1 seaward channel, made ( 'for that city by the Eads jetties, to speak j at length of what the inspection deter- edly the first Presidency. Despite his hard money, proclivities, there is a frankness, nobility of character, and inflexible honesty about the man which command the respect and admira tion of friend and foe alike.- A-Democrat sans peur sans reproche, his record is as spotless as the untrodden srrow. But the South is not in a position to dictate her preferences to the national Democracy. Alter a terrific and disastrous appeal to arms, followed by the destruction of local government, and the horrors of carpet-bag rule, we have hut recently struggled to the surface again, and obtained the con trol of our own domestic affairs. At the North our people are still re garded with distrust, and the bloody shirt continues to be the favorite ensign under which all who hate the South love best to rally. Under these circumstances it were folly to assume the part of leaders, and attempt to foist upon the party any gen tleman, however unexceptionble and de serving, as the choice of this section. But unfortunately, in New England and the extreme North, Mr. Bayard has always been regarded as a Southerner and classed as such. Moreover, his highly patriotic and conservative speech at the opening of the war, which has recently been republished and extensively animad verted upon, should he be presented as the nominee of the South, would be used with great effect as a campaign document against him in the Presidential race. On the score of availability alone then, our delegates to Cincinnati should select some other candidate less objectionable_to Northern sentiment, upon whom they may concentrate with a reasonable prospect of success. Whether it be Field, Seymour, Morrison, Hancock, or some comparatively unknown personage, like Franklin Pierce or James K. Polk, remains to be deter mined after the denouement at Chicago. But of this thing the friends of Senator Bayard may rest assured. Should he in any event be selected as the standard bearer of the national Democracy, from Maryland to Texas the people of the Sonth will rally to his support with a una nimity and enthusiasm rarely ever wit nessed. It would be a privilege, indeed, to be allowed to cast a ballet for one who represents in his person all the grandeur and virtues of the purer days of the re public. Model Legislation. As an evidence of the manner in which our modern lawgivers perform their functions, the New York liulletin has this to say of some of the acts of the late New York legislature: The published list bf bills passed by the legislature just before adjournment af fords some curious specimens of minute government. For instance, an entire day was spent in discussing the momentous question of the size of apple barrels, and a law regulating the size was accordingly enacted. The next thing we suppose will be an act to amend an act regulating the price of putty or the size of the traditional piece of chalk. Next, we have a bill to Uiiraivil iruiu i.itiuuivg on rail way cars. Doubtless it is eminently de sirable to prevent children from intrud ing into places where they are not wanted, but one would suppose that that sort of business might safely be left to the natural guardian? of the children themselves, or to the railroad employes; but when paternal govern ment once mounts a hobby, nothing, not even the little children, need expect to es cape its attention. We also notice a “bill to authorize trustees of religious co:pora- tions to appoint officers to preserve order at their meetings.” Singular that it never occurred to the trustees of these corpora tions that it is quite within theirsphere to appoint' such officers without going to Albany forpermission todoso. The next thing will be to have senators and assem blymen appointing ianitors, errand boys, etc. Seriously, is not all this sort of thing tending to bring a State government into contempt, at the same time that it conveys the implication that the people are so many imbeciles, absolutely incapable of doing anything for themselves'. Verily, the world is too much governed The 27th Annual Commencement of Andrew Female College. We are indebted to Rev. A. L. Hamil ton, D. D., the able and indefatigable president of Andrew Female College, for an invitation to attend the twenty-seventh annual commencement of that excellent institution, which begins on the 10tli of Jnne.

Success to old Andrew. _ - Tiie Tribune says the meetingof Veter ans held in Chicago yesterday (Junc.l) was called in tbc belief that it could be made a tender to the Grant machine. The third term managers supposed they could count on the soldiers to be unanimons in favor of their old chief. It turned out, however, that half of them were earnestly opposed to Grant’s nomination, and a resolution indorsing him as the soldiers’ choice for the Presidency divided the meeting so closely that it was only carried by the aid of General Steward L. Wood ford, who was in the chair. Ii There Sncb'a Tkin( u’i.nck t In view of the coming census returns to be made in June next, some curious sta tistician lias calculated from the past experieuee of the drawings of the Louisi ana State Lottery, which takes place with exact fain ess every mouth and semi-an nually under ilia supervision of Generals G. T. Beauregard, of Louisiana, and Ju- bal A. Early, of Virginia, the prospect of getting a prize by the investment of from one dollar to ten for a whole or part ticket. The large capital prizes of $100,- 000, $50,000, $30,000, $20,000, etc., are captured by individuals without any rule of periodicity beyond the certainty that some one will draw them on the certain day. But no one draws the capital prize twice. The other facts are strikingly con firmatory of the modern discovery that, there is such a thing as luck. But fur the further information desired let any one interested write to M. A. Dauphin, New OrleantyXo-, or same person at No. 319 Broadwayj-New York City. lw. mined, and of the immense present and 1 future value of these j6tti|s. r The Derno- crat says: / . I * / Although we have grown' used to the tremendous change which lias taken place in this respect, and by such slow degrees as to mitigate the startling effect of its sig nificance, it reads like a fairy story to carry ourselves back five years, and, from that standpoint, to contemplayr the per fected situation to-day. At that time New Orleans was almost an inland town. Although we had the finest deep-water harbor in the world, and lay at the mouth of tlie river which, with its tribu taries, drained an area as vast as the con tinent of Europe, we were virtually de prived of a majority of the benefits by the fact that our outlet to the sea was im practicable for the larger class of vessels, and dangerous and expensive fur the medium. We could not compete with the Atlantic ports, notwithstanding our tre mendous natural advantages, because of the difficulties and risks attending tne nav igation of the passes. To-day we have a permanent channel of over thirty feet in depth connecting the deep water of the river proper with the deep water of the sea. Steamers pass, to and fro without detention or dauger of detention, and without expense other than that of pilotage, which is incurred at all ports and which all careful shipmas ters are willing to sustain. South Pass, which five years ago was riot navigable for vessels drawing over six feet, is now a magnificent stream 1,000 feet in width, with a central channel varying from 250 to 500 feet in width, where twenty-six feet is the least depth on the outer edges, arid where thirty-five feet is the average prevailing depth of the middle. This channel has also projected beyond the jet ties, for at a distance of 500 feet outside of the sea walls there is a well defined char nel 1,000 feet in width, with a depth of twenty-six feet on the edges, and of thirty- two and thirty-seven feet in the centre. And now this miraculous change, this conversion of a wretched lagoon into a broad, swift thoroughfare of commerce has been wrought in five years. During that interval New Orleans has become a formidable competitor of New York. With a net work of river routes reaching from the eastern slope of the Rocky Moun tains to the western slope of the Alleglia- nies, and from the Canadian line to the Gulf .of Mexico, all paying tribute to tlie common route; with a land-locked harbor in which the navies of the world can ride, and with a permanent deep water outlet to the sea, New Orleans has bounded from a fourth-rate port of entry into the front rank of commercial depots. No wonder that great railway and transporta tion corporations seeking cheap and prac tical access to the seas are turning their eyes toward New Orleans and the Missis sippi delta. No wonder that, whereas five years ago it was impossible to have a Tex as railroad built, there is now an enor mous volume of capital ready to seek that investment, and the long-neglected New Orleans bids fair to become the object of a jealous and eager rivalry. We are, in deed, on tlie threshold of a new era of de velopment and progress. The outlet of the great Mississippi lias demonstrated its capacity to meet all the demands of com merce, and the trans-continental stream of traffic is about to follow tlie laws of econ omy, and turn its rich volume south waid into the majestic channel which nature fashioned for it. As the Congressional committee is now investigating tlie great subject of tlie im provement of the Mississippi river, every- iLioj bvai I115 Uii tlio prAOtiDal nf these jetties is of singular interest. They really solve the whole problem and co operate with and compel nature to do the work. They have really deepened the bed of the river below New Orleans in the course of five years about thirty f :et, and the same treatment of the river above New Orleans will, in time, produce sim ilar results, and wear out a deep clianuel, sous to give high and firm banks to the whole stream; and not only greatly in crease its navigable facilities and do away •with all dangers from crevasse aud over flow, but drain all the swamps on its margin—throw immense tracts of most valuable land in market, and make the whole river valley of the Mississippi healthy. In our opinion, a scheme for the im provement of the Mississippi river by the national goverainent should contemplate careful survey and valuation of all the swamp aud overflowed lands on tlie river, and that when the improvements are completed these lands, whether public or private, should be taxed with tbe outlay amt interest thereon, until collected. Whar is Susan Anthony? The public expectation has been on tip-toe to learn ' what that battalion of Amazons, representing the Bloomers and strong-minded women of the East, North and West have accomplished at Chicago, in the way of incorporating the “plank 1 of female suffrage into the platform of the Radical convention. Every one has been on the gut rite to hear their shrill shrieks rising above the din and uproar of that vast piebald assemblage, bat in vain. Thus far the red-visaged Yankees, the brusque New Yorkers, the coarse hoosiers and black and tan Southrons, have been so ungallant as to snub their sisters, some of whom now wear the breeches and are desirous that all should be invested with tbe same “unmention ables.” Susan and her squalling (so- called) female associates are decidedly in the background. But mayhap they will, yet be heard from with louder emphasis thau the centennial steam calliope. An exchange tlius paints, colour de rose, tbe mission of Miss Susan: Lovely wo man has gone ou to Chicago In a parlor car and is standing ready to hurl iuto the Cleeago platform a plank tliat will float her forevermore in triumph to the polls. Heaven bless her; what a queer, dear darling she is, to be sure. She will be for going out and fighting the wild aboriginal savages next. And then she will take to running locomotives and sawing wood and will want to be the secretaryess of the navy. Well, well, why should any body desire to restrain the dear creature- from airing these soulful aspirations? They amuse her and—and they amuse other people too. Thera is something so droll in the sweet thing’s desire to vote wlwn, anytime, everyone of her can make ftom one bo twenty ineu. vote for anybody or anything that she pleases. But it is just woman-like, so what is the use of bothering about it? And as to the plank that she wants in the Chicago platfoim, why she shall ask for just as many planks as the chooses; of course she shall. Gen. Grant and his family, according to tlie Tribune, are said to have engaged rooms for the entire season at Manitou Springs, Colorado. They are expoctod there immediately after the convention; and it is thought that the general, while staying there, will visit different parts of tlie mining region. Ex-Senator Chaffee and his daughter have also taken rooms at the Springs; and it is graphically'stated tliat “the ‘Saratoga of tlie West’ booms.” K|no George, of Greece, is undertak ing a little diplomacy in person. Hp is now in Paris, and will-probably visit all the great powers, with a view of availing his little kingdom of some new territory in settling boundaries under the Berlin treaty. How it looks at Chicago. Grant’s Lines Stiffe:Ang!~' The following dispatch from the Phila delphia Times seems to throw more light upon the movements of the.oontendmg factions at Chicago than anything we have seen: Bit before tlie afternoon ^or#away the new Grant line was visible, and it bristled with all the implemifots of war. It waS settled "that - the “convention 'would' be organized in tlie interest of the opposition, and that t’ ere-would be no - distracting-}-^ skirmishes, but it left tbe Grant men only one thiug do—to look after voles. To night there is a', stiffening of the Grant lines i and missionary and commercial hunts after “tlie weak “anil straggling, which teach the shrewd leaders of the opposition tliat the Grant men are making flank movement that will require the best strategy, and the most cordial unity to "defeat it; and it is beginning to dawn upon the Blaine and the Sherman managers that if both of them remain in the contest Grant will wear them out and win the nomination. There are enough ready to desert under any plausible pretest, and the aspect of tlie battle is so changed now tliat Grant’s safety is not in tbe first ballot, but in many hallo's. The Grant men now want peace and patience, and they expect tbe trietion of combining the opposition to give them victory. They will have about three hundred votes to start with, which will be from twenty-five to fifty more than Blaine and one hundred and fifty more than Sherman, and they " count tLat their line is - the only one that will never lose but steadily gain. They have now no tactics to in vent. They waut individual votes and there is not a doubtful delegate anywhere to-night who is not reached for by wliat is regarded as the best appliance to bring him to Grant at some stage of the contest. The opposition leaders were not prepared for this new movement. It is not now the odious unit rule that is to be defeated, but Cameron, Coukling, Logan and their lieutenants are to be beaten by getting more, votes for some one man thau they can get for Giant. This forces tbe opposition to tbe always perilous change of front under fire. They must now look each other in the face. They must unite on one man and then hold their discordant and hitherto bunglingly commanded followers against straggling It is well understood that some of the Pennsylvania bolters against Grant in structions will fall back to his support whenever they are required to decide be tween Grant and either Blaine 6r Sher man, and unless the convention shall be swept to some dark horse by a sudden whirlwind the abandonment of Blaine would give Grant all tbe votes be needs to make a majority. Mr. Tilden’s Withdrawal. A double-leaded editorial from the Nashville American says tbe fact is now well authenticated, if we can believe re liable reports direct from headquarters, tliat Mr. Tiiden will not be a candidate, for tba nomination at Cincinnati. EST- Gov. Robinson, of New York, will attend the convention as Mr. Tilden’s friend and representative, armed with plenary power to withdraw his name from tbe considera tion of tliat body. Satisfactory reasons will ba given for this course, based oa political policy or tailing health, or both. The vote of New York will be cast, at Mr. Tilden’s dictation, for Hon. H. B. Payne, of Cleveland, Ohio. Such of Mr. Tilden’s present advo cates as can be controlled by bis dic tation, will also favor tbe nomination of Mr. Payne. What effect this will have upon the final result cannot, at present, even be guessed. Such a step on the part of New York will be opposed by Mr. Thurman, Mr. JeWelt and Gov. Bishop in Oliin. Tho first turn an> aspimoto fo» the presidency, and the third for the vice presidency. The nomination of Mr. Payne would defeat the hopes of all three. Such action by New York would also sadlv disappoint Mr. Randall, Judge Field and Senator Randolph, of New Jersey, each of whom has received assur ances that his nomination would be acceptable to Mr. Tiiden. It is said that a strong pressure is being brought on Mr. Tiiden for the puipose of inducing him not to throw bis strength to Mr. Payne, because it would be risking tlie presidency on tbe October election in Ohio. That is the only State which has a State election in the fall. With the well known power of the Republican managers to raise and use money for electioneering purposes, it is insisted by those opposing Mr. Payne that tbe risk would be too hazardous with him as tlie nominee. Mr. Tiiden has not yielded to the pressure against Mr. l’ayne, but takes tbe ground that be can name four men who will sub scribe $500,000 for tbe Ohio canvass, if necessary, provided Mr. Payne is tbe presidential nominee. Who the four men are no one knows, but the guess is that Mr. Tiiden, Mr. Payne and his son, and Mr. W. L. Scott, of Erie, Pa., are the quartette. We shall see what we shall see. Baptist Association. Petersburg, June 5.—The Baptist general association reassembled yester day. Rev. T. S. Dunaway offered a reso lution that some suitable monument be erected to tlie memory of the late Rev. J. B. Jeter, D. D., by the Baptists of Vir ginia and tbe entire country, and that this association has heard with pleasure of the contemplated erection of a memorial hall at Richmond college for library pur poses. Dr. W. L. Thomas, of Norfolk, offered a resolution, which was adopted, that the work for the endowment of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary ought to be continuously and vigorously prosecuted in Virginia, until tlie quota of the State shall have been raised. H. K. Elieyson,-correspondingsecretary of the State mission board, presented tbe fifty-seventh annual report. It makes a gratifying exhibit of work done during tbe past year and anticipates a bright future. Since the presentation of the last report the board treasurer Las received $0,936, and paid out $6,505. On tbe first of June there was due Baptist missionaries $5,849. After .deducting the balance in the treasurer’s hands, $4,SS0 were still ueeded to pay them.' At the night session the annual report of the foreign mission board was read. Rev. J. H. Eagen, recently appointed missionary to China,and others, addressed the association on foreign missions. Hfewi Items. New York June 5.—A Norfolk, Va., special says Lieut. W. F.

Fonrth Jbay'n Proceedings. FIB8#DlSl*ATCH. Chicago, June-5.—In the .convention* , w ‘ last night, the question on adoption of the majority report in the case.of the first dis trict of Illinois resulted,- ayes 384, nays 356. So the mjQority report was adopted. The question recurring on the artoptjtm.of the majority report on ,the /emaityfig Il linois cases, Mr. Logan asked.for a divfc- joiLOf the question, amt a separata vote in each contested district. r The majority report on tlie third district was adopted^ yeas 385, nays 353. Logan withdrew the demand for any further jdiyteion of .the, Question regarding the remaining Illinois contests. The roll call. _op_the fourth district- resulted,- ay us majority report, so far as it relates to the remaining Illinois contests, was then adopted by a vita voce vote. Of motion of Sewell, of New Jersey, the convention, at 2:20, adjourned till 11 o’clock this morning. v SECOND "DISPATCH. Chicago, 11:15 a. h.—Delegates are .steadily assembling,andthe galleries filling "rapidly, despite heavy showers ot rain and a sultry atmosphere, partially relieved by occasional thunder. The usual rounds of applause were given to notable delegates as they entered the hall. Garfield especially was re ceived with much- enthusiasm—probably because, in some contingencies, he is considered a possible winning dark horse in the Presidential race. Tlie convention was called to order at 11:45 a. m., at which time the delegates generally were in their seats, aud an im mense audience in the’galleries and in tlie rear of the floor. Prayer was offered by Rer. John'R. Baxter, of Washington. The contestants from the Illinois dis tricts aie in their seats. • Tlie question of the Kansas contestants is now being taken up. THIRD DISPATCH. Chicago, June 5.—At the end of the prayer the chair stated the question to be on tbe report of the committee on creden tials in the case of Kansas. Conger briefly explained and sustained tbe majority re port. The convention agreed to a limit in debate on Kansas to 40 minutes. Plumb, of Kansas, replied in behalf of tlie silting members, and sustaining the minority report. Coukling privately denies emphatically the report published at Baltimore stating that he had received a letter from Grant requesting him to consult Logan, and if it was thought best, to withhold his name from presentation to the convention. Hauk, of Tennessee, said be did not know which side of the pending question he was on, and asked to be allowed to speak two minutes in order to ascertain liis own position. [Laughter.] The chair said the gentleman must be on one or the other side, to entitle him to occupy any time allotted to this debate. [Renewed laughter.] Hauk was al lowed to proceed, and in conclusion, said he would sustain the majority report, be cause there was no minority report; but he did not want to be understood thereby as condemning the action of the congres sional districts in Kansas. The question was then taken by a call of States and tbe majority report in the Kansas case sus tained by yeas 476, nays 184. It was noticeable that in the Kansas case New York cast only 22 votes in the affirmative. So the majority report, which admits four Grant men from Kansas, was adopted, the committee on credentials holding that they were entitled to seats under tlie principle of district representa tion. The failure of the New York Grant men to vote is understood to be caused by a desire to have the majority report sustained, while their votes for it would be inconsistent with their votes in the Illi nois cases. The next case taken up was the contest in the third district of West Virginia. Tiu» mnimiti-i'fl recommended the reten tion of thesittingmerabers who are BUiao men. Conger explained and supported tbe majority report. Clayton moved to substitute the minority report—the minor ity report recommending the admission of the contestants. Raum insisted that the West Virginia case stood precisely on all fours with the Illinois and Kansas cases, and as the con testants from Illinois and Kansas had been admitted those from West Virginia should be. Codman, of Mississippi, spoke against the report. Hagans, of West Virginia sustained the majority report, urging that the contestants failed to prove before the committee that they secured tbe votes of a majority of the delegates to the State convention from their Congressional dis tricts. Conger stated that the committee were nearly equally divided in this case, and rather intimated that he was not himself clear in opinion as to the true merits of the case. The contestants in the case are Sherman meii. There was considerable cross-firing between different delegates as facts of a purely local nature. Hayman, of California, said that each side here claims to be district representa tives. Tbe only controverted question is as to whether the sitting or contesting del egates were tbe legally chosen representa tives of the districts involved. The vote was then taken by a call of States upon substitutingT.be minority for the majority report, aud resulted 417 yeas, 330 nays. So the motion to substitute the minori ty report was agreed to, and the. conven tion voted viva voce to seat the contest- arils. - ' , - - ■ The Grant, Sherman, arid Edmunds men appeared to combine on this affirma tive vote. The next case was Utah—the debate upon it to be limited to 30 minutes. The 330 votes of negation on tlie West Virginia case is regarded by many as indicating that Blaine’s strength in the convention is at least as great as that of Grant. The roll of States was called on the mo tion to substitute the minority for the majority report, and thus seat the Utah constituents, resulting-in 426 yeas, 312 nays. So the minority report was substi- stituted. New York voted 50 ayes, 17 noes. Tbe vote was in no sense a test of the strength of tlie respective factions, the partisans of different candidates dividing. The convention then admitted the Utah contestants. - - V FOURTH DISPATCH. Chicago,June 5.—Mr. Garfield.’s rising was greeted with great applause, .ne in quired of Sharpe, of New York, who made the minority, report from the com mittee on rules and order of business, how much time he desired for discussion of said report. Sharpe replied that he did not design to detain the convention unnecessarily, but he could tell better what his course would be after Mr. Garfield had stated his own motion. Mr. Garfield then. moved the adoption of the majority report, and hoped any proposed amendment would be presented before debate should begin. Both the •majority and minority reports were read for information. The chair stated the question to be on the motion of Garfield to adopt the majority report. Sharpe offered the following resolution:. Resolved, That this convention will proceed at once to ballot for candidates for President of the United States and tliat one speech of fifteen minutes shall be allowed for presentation of each candi date and one speech of tan minutes to second each nomination, and that after such nominations are made the ballot shall be. takgn by a call of the role of States. Garfield raised the point of order that under the order of the convention the re port of the committee on rules was before the body, and Sharpe’s motion being for proceeding to an entirely different busi ness was not in order. The chair ruled Sharpe’s' motion in or der. A vote was ordered^ by*a call of the States. This motion was at first a surprise, coming from anti-Blaine men. Sharps modified the resolution so as to provide that after the nominating speeches shall have been made ballots for presidential nominees shall lie taken by a call of the roll of States. After some discussion, the chair stated the question to be upon the substitution mmittee (the national Republican commlttefe), fbqll, within twelve months, prescribed nfttijod or methods for tbe ■election of delegates to the national con- lition 16 be held in ib&i. and announce the same'to the country, and issue a call *2— gativeaSml it>- Ac3 demand^!, and bell Yeas 2§fc, nays 47_ i d 4S ayes,32 nays.

Garfield hoped the amendment would be accepted, and it was so adopted by the convention, and the rules were adopted as a whole'. • On motion of Garfield the committee on resolutions was ordered to report. The resolutions were reported' by Pierrepont, of New York. The following is the platform: The resolution, after reviewing the adminis tration of the Republican party, asks for the continued confidence and support of the people, and submits for their approval the following statement of principles and purposes which will continue to inspire it: t. It affirms, that the work of the last twenty-one years has been such as to com mend itself to the favor of the nation, and the fruits of victory should be pre served; that the dissevered Union happily restored should be pjrpetuated. Credit should never he impaired and reviving industries should be further promoted. The constitution is the supreme- law, and not a mere contract of confederated States. Out of sovereign States it made a nation. Some powers are denied to the nation, while others are deined to the States; but the boundary between the powers delegated and those withheld, is to be determined by the nation, and not by State tribunals. 3. Public education is to be left to the care of the States, but it is the duty of the national government to aid that work to the extent of its constitutional duty. 4. Recommends that the constitution be amended so as to forbid the legislatures of States to make any law respecting the establishment of any religion, ano to for bid the appropriation of" public funds to the support of sectarian schools. 5. Affirms the belief that duties levied for purposes of revenue should so discriminate as to favor American labor. No further grants of public domain to corporations. Slavery having perished in the States its twin barbarity, polygamy, must die in tbe territories. That everywhere protection should be accorded to citizens of Ameri can adoption. 6. Acknowledges obligations to men who protected its interests in' the hour of battle; invokes Congress and the treaty making power to restrain and limit Chi nese immigration. 7. Endorses the administration-of Pres ident Hayes. 8. Charges that the Democratic party, to obtain possession of tbe national aud State governments and control of place and position, have obstructed all efforts to promote the purity and to conserve the freedom of the suffrage, and have devised fraudulent returns; iiave labored to un seat lawfully elected members of Con gress, to secure at all hazards the vote of a majority of the Stales in the House of Representatives; have endeavored to occu py by force and fraud places of trust given toothers by the people of Maine, and were only foiled by the courageous action ofUniiw'i patriotic sons; liave attached partisan riders to appropriation bills, upon whose passage the very move ments of the government depend; have crushed the rights of individuals; advocated the principles and sought to fur ther rebellion against tlie nation, and en deavored to obliterate the sacred memo ries of the war and overcome its inestima bly valuable results—nationality, personal freedom and individual equality before the law and tbe protection ot all citizens in the enjoyment of all privileges and im munities granted by the constitution. The dangers of the solid South can only be avoided by the faithful performance of promises which tbe nation lias made to its citizens. Tbe execution of tlie laws and the punishment of all those who violate them are the only safe methods with which enduring peace can be secured, and gen eral prosperity be established throughout tbe South. The solid South must be di vided by the peaceful agencies of tbe bal lot, and opinion must there find free ex pression; and to this end honest voters must protest against terrorism, violence and fraud. After the resolutions had been read, Barker, of Massachusetts, moved to amend by adding, the following: “The llepublitan party, adhering to the princi ples affirmed by its last national conven tion of respect.for the constitutional rules governing appointments to office, adopts tbe declaration of President Hayes, tliat reform in the civil service shall be thor ough, radical aud complete. To that end it demands the co-Operation of the legisla tive with the executive department of the government, aud that Congress shall’so legislate that Jonly fitness ascertained by proper means shall ever admit to the public service; that the tenure of administrative offices, except those through which tlie distinctive policy of the party in power, shall be carried outt shall be permanent during good behavior, and that the power of removal for cause, with due responsibility for good conduc, of subordinates, shall accompany the pow er of appointment.” Anthony, of Illinois, moved an amend ment', which Barker accepted, and the amendment of Barker was adopted, and then the resolution as amendedj was also adopted without a call of the States. The resolution as adopted omits the tenure of office clause practically as orig inally introduced. Creswell, of Maryland, moved a recess till 7 to-night, which was adopted. FIFTH DISPATCH. Chicago, June 5.—Tiie convention was called to order In evening session at 7:15 o’clock,but it was ten minutes later before delegates enough were in their seats to admit of the opening of business. - A. com munication was read from Mr. Root, call ing attention to historical associations con nected with the gavel used by the presiding officer of the convention. Its head is made from pine wood taken from tlie home of Abraham Lincoln, and the handle from.a cane grown on the Mount Yemon estate, the home of Washington. The presiding officer is asked to accept it as a memento of the most interesting convention indie history of tlie Republican party. HaH moved that the roll of States be called for the announcement of new members of the Republican national con vention Agreed to. The roll was called accordingly.

Me- resignation of any member of the national central committee, tlie vacancy inay.be UUed by" the appointment of the central committee of the State, Territory or dis trict;”—^— Hale moved a call of the roll of States in alphabetical order, aud that whenever a State is reached which has a nomina tion to present, it may'be presented under the rule already adopted. Sii Cormick; Dakota, not able to agree; Dis trict of Columbia, not ready; Idaho, Geo. of Sharpe’s resolution for the report of tbe I E. Sharp; Montana, A. II. Beatty; New committee on rules. Upon a viva voce Mexico, S. T. Elkin; Utah, W. Bennett Logan inquired how many were al lowed to second nominations. The chair said the rule made no pro viso for speeches inseconding nominations, but allowed ten minutes- for the presenta tion of each candidate. Conger asked unanimons consent that five minutes be given for seconding each nomination immediately after the nomi nation is made, and it was so ordered. Hale’s motion was then agreed to, and the roll was called. Joseph F. Joy, of Michigan, rose and took the platform, in response to numerous calls. Z fter some reference to the pub lic life of his proposed nominee, he pre sented for nomination to the presidency James G. Blaine. The mention of his name was received with grand demonstrations of applause among the audience, both in the galleries and-on the floor. The nominating speech was not inspiring in its delivery, and the demonstration of applause which inter rupted it must be attributed to its subject alone. A renewed mention of Blaine’s name at the conclusion of Joy’s speech was the sig nal for another wild scene of confusion and excitement, the larger half of the au dience and all the Blaine delegates rising and cheering vociferously, waving flags, fans, hats, umbrellas, etc., most frantic ally. TJte lady who was so conspicuous in the remarkable scene last night is said to he Mrs. Charles F. Deems, widow of a soldier of New York, andthe flag which she displayed is said to hare been Lin coln’s. Again to-night she was present ou the platform with the flag in one hand %nd a fan in the other and cheering loudly until the bystandeispulled her down from her seat and tore the flag in tatters in their efforts to take it frOm her, while she folded it about her peison and struggled for its possession. The confusion con tinued fully tea minutes, when a loud- voiced delegate ' succeeded in at tracting attention, and demanded to know whether the convention was not capable of protecting itself from tbe mob in tbe galleries, l’ixley seconded the nomina tion of Blaine in a speeeh of considerable length. When Minnesota was called, E. F. Drake presented the name of W. M. Windom, which was also received with great but speedily suppressed applause.- When New York was called, Conkling rose, mounted the reporters- platform and then took a position on reporters’ table. H6 too was received with long continued and vociferous, though not such general applause and cheering as his mention of the name of Grant received, with renewed demonstrations lasting two or three min utes. Conkling’s speech was an eloquent pan egyric on the life and services of Grant ami the need of the hour; not a candidate who can cany the States which are surely Republieau, but who can carry doubtful States; South as well a* North. Grant could carry the doubtful State of New York and several in tbe South. [Ap plause.] He briefly reviewed the third term objection to Grant and urged there was no objection to any man weighed in the balance anil not found wanting. [Cries of “time, time,” but be paid no at tention to them aud was. soon permitted to proceed.] Towards the conclusion he said the con vention was the master of supreme pow ers. It cau make the next President, and also make sure his peaceful inauguration. Democratic success is a menace to order and progress, which this convention can overthrow, and emancipate the solid South. It can make the Republican army march to certain victory with its greatest chief at its bead. As Conkling took his seat there was another scene of disorder, and im mense cheering by tbe supporters of. Grant, which continued ten minutes. Bradly, of Kentucky, seconded Grant’s nomination in a brief aud eloquent five- minute speech. When Ohio was called, Garfield, amid great cheering, advanced to the same po sition which Conkling had occupied. When order was restored, he said that he was always touched by sentiments in hon or of Grant. He had seen the sea in its fury of storm. It was a grand sight, but he remembered that, after all, it is the calm level of tbe sea from which all heights and depths are measured. He coiuiseled calm and quiet consideration in the hour of determining their duties here. [Applause.] The applause and noise which followed Sherman's nomination came from those who made up in persistent effort what they lacked in numbers. The chair did uot seem to feel called upon to make any effort to check it, and so much additional time was wasted, until finally a storm of hisses secured comparative quiet. Winkler, of Wisconsin, and Elliot, of South Carolina, colored, seconded Sher man’s nom'mation, the latter taking an op portunity also to pay a graceful compli ment to Blaine. He said if any candidate went into the canvass relying on the vote of any southern State for his election, he' would fail. Vermont being called, Billings rose and put iu nomination the*name of Edmunds as the most fitting mau to be branded upon the Republican banner. The nomi nation was seconded by Sanford, of Massa chusetts. Chicago, June 5.—Cassiday, of Wis consin, presented the name of E. B. Washburne, of Illinois, as that of one who would give unity to the party and who is at once capable and worthy of the public confidence which his merits com mand. Washburne’s name was received witli marked applause. . Brandage, of Connecticut, seconded the nomination of Washburne. This was a faithful Republican, whose name was the only name sure of carrying every doubt ful State, aud thus securing victory for the Republican party. He urged him, also, as tlie friend of Grant, whose influence, in the dark hours of the war, brought the silent man from the South west and put him in command in "Vir ginia, to crush tlie head of the rebellion. He uiged that Washburne’s name would rally tbe German vote, and thus secure New York' and redeem Connecticut, aud aid powerfully in securing Republican control in the national councils. The speech was one of the strongest of the night, bat the late hour forbids justice in ; its report. Ou motion of Mr. Morse, of Massachu setts, the convention, at 11:50, adjourned till 10 o’clock Monday morning.
