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

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.

[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.

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

vote of 349 in the affirmative to
in the negative. Carolina seconded the
South
nation of Bayard. The Chairman
the Texas delegation seconded

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

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

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.

Hancock received 7^5 votes on the
conclusion of the second ballot.
Senator Hampton, of South Carolina,
Judge Hoadley, of Cincinnati, and ex

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.
