Numerous and conflicting rumors were floating about, and they all resolved themselves into tho fact that It was only tho field against Cleveland, with the opposition leaders devising plans to con solidate the scattering votes for some one os against the governor of New York. THURMAN. , , Last night the Bayard boom took an unmtitak- able projHirtlon. but considerable of his strength deserted uim to-day, and then a move was made that the parties, James Carlon. K. McClearaed, L. Perry and George H. Block, lie admitted to this convention, aud each shall be entitled to oue-half a vote. Your committee unanimously recom mend that the following names of delegates from the several territories, embraced In the call of the national democratic convention, and the district of Columbia, be admitted to the floor of this con vention, participating in its deliberations, and that they be entitled to vote on all questions. [Applause]. Mr. Randolph, of "New Jersey???I wish to offer an amendment to the report, and will send the resolution to the desk to lie read. ???Resolved, that the territorial delegates be not allowed to vote on the floor of this convention.???

It is well-known that the Ohio delegation has been divided. A strong effort was made to-night to'eonsolidate its votes for Thurman on the promise that Massa chusetts and a considerable portion of the south and west would rally to his support. It is claimed that a telegram was sent to Governor ,safeguards for national justice. Peace and union forever. [Cheers], The borrow of the dread ful hour of Internecine conflict must stimulate suitable honor and reward to the noble men wiiose lives were offered for their country, talvntlou, but these people will not go backward to destroy the fruits of their labor and sacrifices. The hour of peace and concord, the embrace of friends after a bitter war, the restored joy of h py liberty and enduring union are their high honor. The most noble chaplet that ever crowned a soldier's memory who dares a war to bleed again, who fans a dying snqrk of enmity, strips the tenderest leaves from tfist laurel leaf of glory [cheers], aud doubly wick ed ho who perils the nation's peace and happi ness to serve by such ends vain ambition. [Cheers.] Tho day for such attempts has passes 1. A new gen cnition is on the scene of action; an ed ti nted and Intelligent generation. They understand this end. The Ohio headquarters at the Palmer house to-night presented a scene of furore and ex citement growing out of this fact. The spacious rooms were crowded to suffocation, speakers rapidly following one another addressing ever- moving crowds from a table placed in the center of the room. TUB FACTION FEKI.INO OROWINO. The faction quarrel between the Thurman and nuti-Thurmau parties Is. to all outward appear ance. becoming more intense and bitter than when the delegates first arrived. At least a doze n from the various ileiegates it is learned that Ohio stands auti-Thurman 2T>, Thurman ill. This esti mate is strenuously denied by Thurmans sup porters. who claim 2* votes, the anti-Thurman Hoadly, whose name will be presented, fi Tliur- man's irleuds Insist on presenting the latter???: Tlie entire California delegation visited the Ohio headquarters, and Mr. Tnrpey, of California, apeaking for his state, said that If the Ohio people would abaudou the candidacy of Hoadly, and would accept In his place Thurman, the Pacific coast would guarantee him a solid democratic vote and victory. After Uoadly,tho anti-Thurman votes in Ohio will probably go to Cleveland. Ohio will hold a caucus iu the morning. It Isi proba ble that Thurman???s name will be presented in the convention, no matter what may be the outcome <of the caucus. THE OTHER STATES. With the exception of Maryland, it could not be ascertained that any serious defect ion had occurr ed iu the column of the southern states which has hitherto declared ndherauco to Bayard. Maryland declined, by a majority of *}, to vote ns a unit for Cleveland on the second bal lot. It was stated in a very positive way. how ever. that the encouragement which the Thurman movement got would impel his formal noml- nation, and that tho speech would be made by General Breckcnridge. of Kentucky. The Illinois delegation met In secret session to night, for the purpose of canvassing the question of presidential preferences, and at 10:30 was still In session. . . . The Cleveland and anti-Cleveland delegates from New York were admitted and allowed to present their cose, although not without a protest from several memliers of the Illinois delegation, who staid they knew their own minds without outside Interference, aud wanted to settle their own ques tions in their own way. The Credentials Committee, A CONTENT FROM MASSACHUSETTS???TERRITORIAL REP RESENTATION. Chicaoo, July s.???The committee on credentials appointed by the national convention met to night in the rooms of the Missouri delegation, to act upon tho credentials of the various delegations, A contest in the Massachusetts delegation was made in one of the districts and the contestants were notified to appear before the committee at an adjourned meeting to be held in the morning. A resolution Introduced In the convention by Senator Voorhees. granting full membership to delegates from the territories and the district of Columbia, was taken up, and a committee from the tcmltorlal delegates was invited to appear before the committee and presont their arguments. A. M. Dickson and K. I). Wright, of the District of Columbia, made an argument on the right of the territories to a representation and a voice In the selection of national rulers, and tho commit, tee unanimously resolved to recommend the K age of tho resolution to the national canven- Atlunta Hears the News. Tin: COMMENTS UPON THE CONVENTION REPORTS??? # GENERAL TOOMBS INTERESTED. The Atlanta public seemed during the forenoon to huvo forgotten that yesterday was tho day set Apart for the assembling of the national democratic convention. Hardly an Inquiry was mado about ??????the news from Chicago" until tho first bulletin posted at the telegraph office announced; ???The convention has Just been called to order." Then the Interest liogan to spread like circles upon a lake surface, until everywhere in town the fact was known ami the telephone began its per sistent racket aud showered in question* about the doings on tho borders of Lnko Michigan. The telegram* posted on the mammoth bulletiu board at The Constitution office were eagerly looked for, but their meager contents produced only speculative comment and the day closed with - suppressed expectancy of hot times and an ay lanche ol lively news after 11 a. ra. to-day. CROWING OVER TAMMANY. The news that the convention had squelched the first pretension of Tammany hall to control lu action was hailed with satisfaction by every demo crat who heard of It. There Is really no sentiment of svmpathy with John Kelly and his mob of mar plots in till* section of the south. On the contrary, the general sentiment yesterday was in favor of the convention breaking John Kelly's back and putting a sharp and decisive end to the annoyance and bull-dozing of his Tammany hall following. When It was uim lumutvi j ??? u.un,.. ?????? ??? happy omen that the democracy intended to de clare us?lf Independent of all factjonlstsand spoils men and go bravely Into the work of reform with out a handicap.

GENERAL TOOMBS LOOKING ON. Early in the afternoon a telegram was received at The Constitution office from General Robert Toombs, at Washington, Ga., asking tor a special report of the doings of the convention. Thu gen eral Is much interested In,the outcome of the party's deliberations and will be kept fully postwl from this point as rapidly as the news Is received. In the present crisis he U said to favor the nora iuutiou of Cleveland. THE SECOND DAY'S PROCEEDINGS. Resolutions Offered and Reports Submitted ???The Nominations. Chicago.

[Applause.) It seems to me that every democrat in this broad land, from the Atlantic to the I???aefflo. from the lakes to the levees, has a living vital interest in the proceedings of this convention, and it would be unjust to the i*cople who are struggling to build up the territories into pro porous states, adopt till* amendment to silence the voices their delegates, who have been invited to attend, and who have come here with the understanding that they should participate fully in the deliberation* of this party. [Great applause and cries of "quietor."] The chair??? 1 The question is upon the adoption of the amendment offered by Mr. Randolph, - New Jersey. The amendment was nut and lost. The chair???The question recurs upon the adop tion of the report of the committee ou creden tial*. The question was put and the report was adop- cd amid loud cheers. Mr. Henan, of Michigan, offered a resolution for the reduction of taxation to a revenue basis. Re ferred.

Further resolutions were offered and referred to the committee on platform against the acquisition oi large tracts ol public land by corporations, for reform in the civil service by making |>o*tmnstera elective; ngainst a systematic reduction of the tariff taxes; providing that in the cose of the death of candidates for president or vice-president, the chairman shall call together the convention again to till the vacancy; for the repeal of all legislation which, under republican rule, has tended to pau perize labor; for a constitutional amendment making the presidential term of office six years, and to limit tho disposal of the public, lands to act uni settlers, in quantities not more than 160 acres each. Finally a resolution was adopted to refer all such propositions, without being read. Under that rule several anti-Chinese and tariff???reform resolutions were referred, being only read by their titles. The Regular Organization. MR. W. If. VILAS, OF WISCONSIN. GIVEN TIIF.

Tho report was utratil mously adopted, and Mr. Hendricks, of Indinim with five other gentlemen wore appointed a com mittee to escort Mr. Vilas to the chair. The temporary chairman. In present Vila* to the convention, returned thank! charity and forbearance sbowu toward* himself, and which, he said, tho permanent chalrmRn would need much less. CHAIRMAN VILAS BREAKS. Mr. Vilas said: Gentlemen of tho nationnl de mocracy???I know full well that this mark of your favor Is no personal compliment, but Is a recog nition of the young democracy of the northwest ern states, [loud applause,] and I claim to be Justly their due [loud applausuj a* a trloutc for their lofty zeal and patriotism, for their long aod gallant struggle against un out-numbering foe. and for ho great and growing numbers, fupplnu.se] ami I hall it a* a presage and prototype of their coming trlupmli.

(Applause). butler???s appearance. At this stage of Coionol Vilas???s speech Benjamin F. Butler appeared, escorted by one of his old aides, Driukwater, and was received with uproar ious applause, mingled with some hisses from oeoplc who did pot seem to relish the Interrup- :loii. After the confusion occasioned by this epi sode Vilas resumed as follows: ??? They have heard repeated tho promises of re form with each recurring election, and with dis grace and shame they witness each new adminis tration discover deeper iniquities than those It promised to amend. [Applause.] There lr a growing conviction that the one reform which will work nil the others, and is the condition of SKL rl *K J new The and hope of tills republic win worn nil tnu tuners, mm is me e????uuuw???? ail, is the defeat of the present party In power [ pin use], and there i* but one nope, fs vain to look to any n mpPmiMPRHUHich brings down the traditions and reprcseutsthoprliiclplesupon which this gov ernment was founded a* the homestead of equality and liberty.

[Applause.] It stands ns they Inspired It, tins party of the pco- jde, for the generous diffusion of Knowledge, Senator Grady sprang to his feet and to attract tho attention of the chair. He was met with a perfect storm of hisses from the gallery and the audience generally. He still continued to hold the floor, and endeavored to attract the attention of the chair. The uproar became so great that nothing could l??e done. The chair re fused to hear Grady until after the ballot Ir ] been concluded. While the uproar was In IS highest. Senator Grady endeavored to make him self heap!, amt shouted at the ton of his voice: H "I hold in my hand* the official!" The chair???The gentleman I* not in order.

The only ob-1 lection urged against him was that Ohio was an October state. The Reply to that was that this was not a state convention, but a national convention. The nomination of Thurman was indorsed by General Durbin Ward, of Ohio. He declared that Ohio would lie the battle ground of the presiden tial election. The democracy could win I without it, but if the democracy carried Ohio In October, the battle would be al ready won. They wanted Ajax with tho helmet and spear to thunder along the line aud deal death-giving blows to the foe. Allen G. Thurman was that Ajax in intellect, in courage, in adher ence to the coiuftltutionitllaur, in defense of the I rights of the masses, in defiance of the power of monopolies, in defiance of the corruptions of the nge. Thurman had no peer except Tllden. [Ap plause.] The democracy hml carried the state I of Ohio in the last two an- nual elections, and with Thurman as presidential candidate, it would carry it again next October. He was no callow politician, but was a colossal figure in the democratic party. was observable that a part of the Ohio delega- refused to participate In the applause that greeted the name of Thurman. JOHN O. CARLISLE NOMINATED. Joseph A. MeKlnzte, of Kentucky, uext cane to the platform, lu the name of the state, which he said would give 50,000 majority to the demo cratic uotninee, he nominated tho present distinguished speaker of the American house of representatives, John G. Carlisle. In all the essential characteristic of manliness, courage, ability and patriotism. Carlisle was the peer of any great name that had been or would be mentioned in connection with that office. No name carried with it more nf talismuuic charm, or more of the respect of the American people than his. He was a man not born for small or selfish thing*. He was a man to whom dishonor was unknown. He was one made Up of greatness, who had a victorious birth-right in hli e alone. It might la* urged that he mine from the wrong side of the Ohio river, but if the statute God had seemed to set his seal, tho other as letter- oils with accusation and covered and tattooed all over. [Applause.] When the forces of Oliver Cromwell were lying on their arms awaiting Imt- tie. they frequently engaged in angry disputation concerning matters of faith, hut wh*n orders to charge come down the line fiom Old Ironsides, and that the force of 1'rluee Rupert were iu front, they forgot their differences and hud no thought but victory, until success crowned lous laughter) that no person felt more kindljr than he to Cleveland, but he was too old a friend of his to wish to see him nominated for the presi dency. He w** asked to give tho name of a candidate whose nomination he seconded. He answered that he would name a man who could never Im? called guilty of a single act favor ing cor|K)rute Institutions; a man who had never prostituted the executive power to veto bills that were conceived In the Interest of labor, a man whose hair had grown white In the service of his connin'. [Cries of he means Thurman, of Ohio.] Why, ne asked, should the democratic party take a plunge In the dark, and subject the future fortunes of the party to the hazsnl of lottery? Why should they thrust their hand into a bag and draw out a niimiier wl eh might turn out to he for the party, A.

When the stnto of Delaware called there was nil immediate outbreak cheer*. After the uproar had sutislded, Georgi Gray, of Delaware, came to the platform and ad dressed tho convention. He said he lmd been In structed to present the name of a man worthy to receive the nomination. He did so under a reali zing sense of the great responsibility rcstlug on the convention, to net so that the great opportun ity would not bo thrown away. The republican nomination had flung defiance into American nmtilnxHl, and had shocked the conscience of the best man in the republican party. Such a nomi nation was a sign of the decline ol thut great or ganization, not a sign onncrcnalng strength.

Twice already hn* liberty sank beneath the wave* of fraud aud venality, and she has seen her chosen servants, her chosen high priest*, chosen by a majority of votes, exceeding all which were cast to elect Washington, Adams, Jet- ersou, Madison.

ATTEMPTING TO REACH A NOMINATION TO-DAY???THE NEW YORK SCRAM RLE. Chicago, July 9.???Mr. Snowden, of Pennsylva nia, offered a resolution for a call of the roll of states and for placing in nomination candidates for president and vice-president. Mr. Clutter, of California, inuvcd^Ul reference to the committee on platform. Tho nomination* should not tie made until after the adoption of the platform. The motion wus rejected. A UclegaUUrom Missouri moved an adjourn ment until 11 a. m. to-morrow, as the committee known. It demanded n leader whose chlvafiic courage would never falter, and who could and ???mild bring to the dust the ???plumed knight" of ilse priiiclples.of persons! dishonor. It demandod man with a private character which would de fy the malignant tongue of slander. It demanded a man who should be iu his public and private character tne very antithesis ami opposftcof the nominee of the republican party. [Cheer#]. A man who was nil tills and more, und whose name was now leaping from their hearts to their mouths, was Thomas Francis Bayard. (Loud cheers]. Bayiml as a can didate would make no mistake. Ills name would still the voice of faction. He would carry every doubtful state, and would make some republican .t???r???????? 1 Enthusiasm would take MMi-a ??m ??qmr??uy.niiii nmild MOW Slid Still gfiDW a# the leaves were falling until thednysof November was made glorious l>y the pcams of democratic vic tory. [Loud cheers], M'DONALD NAMED BY HENDRICKS. When the state of ludiaua was called, Mr. Hem dricks, of that state, came to the platform amid loud applause. He said that tho |*.>ople demanded change In the management of federal affairs, and that If tho convention would give them half an opportunity they would execute that purpose In tho election of president at tho coming fall, [f.'lieen.] He believed that the ' nominee of tills convention would becomo the chosen president of the United States, the first inaug unite??l democratic president In 21 years. [Cheer*.[ He spoke of tho official corruptions of the republi can party, and referred to Secretary Chandler** recent testimony before the senate committee, In which he said that the defalcations In one of his bureau* would not exceed 90:1,000, aud yet, forty years ago, an administration had gone down be cause of a defalcation of 900,000, and that the only one. In regard to the civil service, Ic service, and he would notask that they should I bo driven out of office. None but such should tie continued. None tail the fittest should survive. Referring to the foreign policy of the government, I he said it would lie a beautiful spectacle if this ; republic, so strong, so secure, should lead the nations In tlie movement for permanent peace, nnd for the relief of people every wherefrom stand ing armies und wasteful war. lie (hen come down to the main subject of his speech aud suggested for the consideration of the convention a citizen of the state of Indiana, Joseph K. McDonald. (Cheers.) He sketched Mr. I McDonald's career, uml declared that if he were in I??ockwood, of New York, mine up to platform lo put In nomination Governor Clove land. He said that the rc*|MMi*lblllty wnlch he felt was mado greater when he remembered that the richest page* of American history had l??ecti made up from the record* of democratic Adminis tration*, and rcmcmlicrcd that the outrage of 1H7C was still unavenged. No niiiu had greater re- iect than ho for tho honored nntnoa presented to ...e convention, but tlie world was moving and new men who had |Mirticlpated but little In poli tics were coming to tho front. [Cheers.] He was In tho city of Buffalo to present the name of the same gentleman for the officoof mayor. Without hesitation the name of Grover Cleveland had been accepted a*candidate. [Applause 111 gallcricsaud from portions of the delegations). Tho result of Unit clectfon and of the holding of that office, was that In less thitu nine months tho state of New York fouud Itself iu u |H>sltloti P want such a candidate, nnd when in the conven tion of im!, his name was presented for the office of governor of Uio stato of New York, the same class nf iieonle knew thut that meant honest go cramctit; that it mount pure government; that. meant democratic government, and it was ratified. (Applause.) Now, tlie demoemtto state of New York mine and naked that there be given to tho independent aud democratic voter# of the coun try, the young men of the country, tho new blood nr the country, the name of Grover Cleveland '"beers.) .'he nomination of Cleveland was ??ccOndod by Carter Harrison, of Illinois. Hlx weeks ago, hesald. the cry was ???Tllden and reform." Now it was ??????Cleveland and reform." [Cheers.] The demo crat* of Illinois tadlovcd that tho ninntleof ftunntl J. Tllden had fallen and resled gracefully upon the shoulders of Governor Cleveland. It wn* mid that the Irish would knife him. Were Uie Irish over known to knife tho democratic? party except for good reason? Here a prominent Irish politician, of Chicago, John Forsythe, shouted out from among Uie audi ence an angry denial, nnd tho words "yes and no" were several times exchanged between hlin and Harrison. FI unity order wa* restored, and Mr. Harrison proceeded with his speech. He closed witlf thu Assurance ttmt the nomination of Cleve land would help the democrats to win next No- vember. The nomination of Cleveland wa* also seconded by Mr. Jones, of Minnesota. TAMMANY FOR BAYARD, Thomas F. Grady, of New York, then came to the platform. Tho polut of order was raised that unless Grady was going to second the nomination he wa* not now In order, Imt the chairman ovvrriilftd the polnt.-aiid said that u?? he had recognized Mr. Grady, that gentlemen must be heard. GRADY'* ATTACK ON CLEVELAND. Mr.Grady then proceeded to address the conven tion. He said he should lie glad to second Cleve land's nomination except tlint he knew that that gentleman coutd not carry the state of New York. The sure and unurlnK test of that fact was that the last democratic convention of New York was equally divided Mgaiut him. and the delcgatcs-at- largo were divided between his friend* aud oppo nents. At this point, Mr. Bragg, of Wisconsin, rose to lake a point of order, but 111* voice was drowned jy shouts and yells from the galleries. When there wa* some degree of order, Mr. Bragg ntntcd.hl* K dnt to be that the order of busiucM was thu nom atfug and seconding of candidates. The chairman said tlint a similar point of order lmd been mado iu thoHt. Louis convention, and sustained, but he had been disposed to be exceed ingly lenlout in allowing the course of the re marks, supposing that Grady would come to the point, hut unless ho wax about to do so, the chair would la? obliged to lustalii the point of order. Mr. Maun Ing. of New York, chairman of the New York delegation, asked unanimous consent that Mr. Grady might Ik* allowed to proceed Irrc- apcctive of the point of order. Unanimous con- motion was made to'lay on the table Mr. Knowden???s motion to make the nomination now. The vote wo* taken by states, aud resulted In the negative. mE VOTE IN DETAILS.

McDonald was a man of judgment aud of high character, and his name wus presented by a great state. He there fore ore-on ted that name, and all that we asked s justice. SECONDED BV GENEfiAI. BLACK. General Black, of Illinois, seconded the nomi nation of McDonald. They would present, he said, a platform which would appeal to the sober judgment of the people. They also needed a man whose antecedents, known to all men, constituted a satisfactory answer to all reasonable ohjec- lion*. They needed a man whose views all public questions could ... found without a search warrant, and deter mined without an Inquisition. McDonald was such a man. He had favored the monetization of silver, and the saving of the Pacific coast from the coolie servile labor.

When Indiana was called Mr. Hendricks came forward amidst a burst of enthusiasm lasting sev eral minutes. Upon the partial suUrtdcnce of the noise, a wild gallery delegate, with a voke like a rolling mill, shouted: ?? ???Three cheers for the old ticket. ' Aud they were given with extraordinary vigor.
