FOR PRESIDENT, Gen. W. S. Hancock, OF PENNSYLVANIA. FOR VICE PRESIDENT, W. HE. English, OF INDIANA. FOR GOVERNOR, Hon. Rufus E. Lester, OF CHATHAM COUNTY. Thursday, June 24, 1880. Our Next President and Vice President. The nomination of General Winfield S. Hancock, of Pennsylvania, by National Democracy to the of the United States, is generally very acceptable here, and it is thought though he is not the equal of Bayard as a statesman, he is strongest candidate who could be sented for the suffrages of the can people at this time. He is superior to Garfield as a eo'dier, his private and public reputation is tarnished. He will divide the vote, which otherwise might have been given to Garfield, and he will tract the support of the more ble class of independent at the North. Gen. Hancock was born in gomery county, Pa., February graduated at West Point in served in the Mexican and wars, became Brigadier General in tember, 1861, and distinguished Belfat Williamsburg and ville, as commander of division, came commander of the second in 1863, was wounded at He commanded at Washington in and now commands the Eastern partment with headquarters at York. Hon. William H. English, of diana, was born in Scott county, diana, August 27, 1822 ; received collegiate education ; is a lawyer; has been Speaker of the diana Legislature and a Member Congress from 1853-61, He was tioned as a possible dark horse for Presidency. Hon. Kufus E. Lester. —We lish a letter, says the Columbus from this gentleman this morning, clining to take the stump to his own nomination for Governor, eays there are no issues to be ed except those of a personal ter aud that he canuot enter such a discussion. Wo like the of h is letter, it shows dignity delicacy. He has no " record" that desires to elm mpion before the nor does he wish to attack the of others. This letter has OQr admiration of Mr. Lester. The Treasury Department at ington advises the public to refuse $100 notes on the National Bank Commerce, of Pittsburgh, Peun., on the National Exchange Bank, Baltimore, since a new and very gerous counterfeit has appeared, ed from a plate which might be for either of the above banks.

ENGLISH FOR VICE PRESI¬ DENT. Indiana Secures the Second Honor. [special dispatches to recorder.] After the Recorder went to press yesterday, the name of the Hon. Thom¬ as A. Hendricks was presented to the Cincinnati Convention by Hon. Dan Voorhees of Indiana. The repeated mention of Mr. Hendricks’ name by Mr. Voorhees was greeted with ap¬ plause. Massachusetts presented no candidate, but made a complimentary tribute to Mr. Bayard- New York was silent, Ohio, through Mr. Sweeny, a delegate from that State, nominated Hon. Allen G. Thurman. The Chairman of the Pennsylvania delegation stated that they had no can¬ didate to present, but one of their del¬ egates, Mr. Dan Dougherty, of Philadel* p'aia, wished to offer oue, and that gentleman ascended the platform and when he nominated Winfield Hancock as a man who could all factions and carry Pennsylvania, Iudiania, Connecticut., New New York and Ohio, the wildest monstrations of applause followed on the floor and iu the galleries. nomination ot Hancock was by Governor Hubbard ot Texas. The presentation of that name seems to have fallen like & derbolt iu the ranks ot the Field Bayard men, aud a motion to until this morning was rejected by vote of 349 in the affirmative to in the negative. Carolina seconded the South nation of Bayard. The Chairman the Texas delegation seconded nomination of Hancock. Mr. Sirin rt fellow, of Virginia, seconded the nation of Field. Mr. Daniel, of gioia seconded that, of Hancock. Goode, of West Virginia, followed advocacy of Mr Tburman. There being no ot her nomiu ations Mr. of Kentucky (sou of the late John C.

THE SECOND BALLOT. Cincinnati, 10:15 a. m.—T he Con¬ vention met at 10 a. m. Considerable speculation is indulged in as to who will be the nominee, and there are many rumors in circulation as to the probable action of Ohio, New York and other delegations. A letter has been received from Mr. Tilden abso¬ lutely renouncing his candidacy. The second ballot has been ordered. The following is the result : B*i ard...................... 113 Field....................... 654 Hendricks................. 31 Ha u cock.................... 316 Thurman................... 50 Rani’all.................... 129 Tild-n...................... a English.................... 19 Parker...................... 2 Jewett..................... 1 11:30 a. m.—P eckingham, of New York, has riseD and again announced the absolute withdrawal of Mr. Tilden. Before the result of the ballot was an¬ nounced Wisconsin changed her 20 votes to Hancock, making his vote 336. Great excitement, confusion and enthu¬ siasm is being manifested. Nearly all the States are removing their banners from the platform and clustering about those of Hancock and Penn¬ sylvania. New Jersey has changed her 18 votes to Hancock, making his vo*e 354. Necessary to a choice 492. Enough States will change their votes to nominate Hancock on this ballot. 11:49 a. m.—T he Speaker is vainly endeavoring to restore order and the excitement is intense. Pennsylvania wheels all her columns into line and gives her entire strength to Hancock, making his vote 360. New York has changed her 70 votes to Hancock, The various delegations are on their with feet and other States are rallying their votes and banners to Hancock. The band has struck up and every¬ body is shouting. Hancock has been nominated on the second ballot. Hancock received 7^5 votes on the conclusion of the second ballot. Senator Hampton, of South Carolina, Judge Hoadley, of Cincinnati, and ex Senator Dan Voorhee3, of Indiana, mounted the platform and almost simultaneously moved to make the nomination of Hancock unanimous. The motion was carried, accompanied by great enthusiasm. and 12:41 P. M.—Augustus Schell John Kelly, of New York, soon after appeared iu the hall, when Kelly requested was greeted with applause, and to ascend the platform. Mr. Kelly eu dorsed the nomination of Hancock, and said it would unite the Democra cy ot New York. He hoped that differences would be forgotten. The band p’ayed favorite Irish airs. Mr. Fellows, of New York, ascended i the platform and, taking Mr. Kelly's hand, said the action of to-day would ; not ooiy unite the Democracy of New I York but of the whole country. It is thought that English, of Indi- 1 ana ill be nominated for Vice Presi w j ent The Convention has decidedtopro ceed «t. once with the nomination of yj ce President. Alabama has presented Mr. English, | of Indiana, for Vice President, and all the States seem to favor bis selection. Mr. R. M. Bishop, of Ohio, has been ! offered, as a candidate.
