Spectal Dirpateh to The Tribune, CixerNNATY, June 12—The Morton men are in o state of extra tribulation to<lay on nceount. of the negotintions which they have been carry- ng on with the Blaine men. Taking it for granted that the sickness of the ex-Speaker had ruled him out of the contest, they proposed to Blatwe’s friends in the Northwest and Northeast that after o complimentary vote to Blaine they should give their ballots to Morton, who inher- ited his principles. This the Morton men claim was recelved with favor, and they say that the votes of the delegates from Malne and Wis- consin, and a portion of those from Towa, Michigan, aud Illinois, are now assured to them, On Muine and Wisconsin they count with confldence. They swear that Conkling's wenlth has not yet shaken the Southern blacks or whites, and that, WIEN IT COMES TO THE PINCIL as between the representative of the West and the Bastern Conkling, the former must carry the day. They pretend now to fear only Hayes, and then only If the other eandidates should by common consent fall back on hitn to defeat Morton. 8o the Bristow men say that Hayes will be put in as the only hope to defeat Bris- tow, The Conkling men say nothing of Hoyes, but wnake solid fuve to the Ohlo delegates. Col. Dick Thompson, of Indlana, told the Tllinols delegates to-day that Indisna couldn't curry Blaine. Rockwood Ioar suys Conkling couldn’t carry Massachusctts ngainst any re- spectable Democratic candidate. Col. Babeock, Chalrman of the Illinols Re- publican Btate Comnmittee, to<lay awfully startled Logan by reminding the latter that the 1liinots delegation misrepresents the Republic- ans of Illinols. Babeock also told Logan that Blalne coutld not now carry Ilinols, and no more could Conkling., To-lay there Is more talk of Washburne as the * dark horse.” HAYES. It fs certaln that to-night, according to ihe most careful estimates, Hayes stands In the foremost rank among the candidutes nawmed, und {8 mare and more regarded us the Great Un- known who {s liable to receivo the uomination on the thlrd or fourth ballot. BLAINE. THE MICHIGAN DELEGATION, . Special Dispatch to The Tribuna, Cixcinwati, 0.y June 12.—The fivst defectlon in the Blaiue ranks i3 reported to-day in the Michigan delgation. Last night it was reckoned for Bluine. To-dny it i reported to have gone all to pleces; that is, 1t hus gone to Bristow, Morton, and Conkling,—mostly to Bristow. It arosc out of the Chundler und antl- Chandler feuds In Michigan poll- ties. The fact that Eugene Ilule, who Is Chaudler's son-fn-law, is one of Blalne's most trusted friends, scems to have finpressed upon the Michigan delegation that under a Blalne admiulstration that Chand- ler, through Hale, would control the putronage in Michigan, and obtaln tbe whip-hand fn the party manugement, Henes the revolt, and to- night Bluine men do wot reckon on any votes from Michigan, though they still hope to recov- er the delegation, PACIFIC COAST DELEGATIONS. The Golden Jones, of Nevada, Bargeant, and Grorge Gorbam have also captured for Conkling ut least a portion of the Californin und Nevada delegations, with a fulr prospect of taking fn the whole of both. These delegatlons wers counted, until to-day, us solid for Blaine, but neither theso defectlons nor Blalne's filness, nor, in fact, unything seeis in tho legst to dishearton the Blalne managers, With untiring encrgy they push the canvass for him sharply, keep up the enthuslasm of their followers, and maln- tain an excellent organization for operation, of- fensive und defensive. To-night they held u meeting wads up of representatives from each of the delegatlons instructed or known to be for Blaiue, and excluding representatives from the Stutes which will present candidates, A careful canvass of the situation was made, the result of which was ihat the Blalne vote carcfully anulyzed footed upus follows: First ballot, 250; second ballot, 8505 third bullot, notnination, The figuring, of course, was supplemented by pledges of stand- {ng flrm i support of Blalne, and by the assur- ance that the enthusinsm for him was undi- minished, but it fs generally conceded, as before stated, that unless his recovery by Thursday be fully ussured, all the fndleations are that, In- stead of golng futo the Convention with sucha support as fndicated by the tigures, he will have uo prospect of recelving the nomination, DRUMMING UP RECRUITS, After night cume and ft grow possible for o man from the remote North to go out without dangerof being sunstruck, delegutes from Maine assembled, wrapped thelr Lruss-bund around them, and sct out on & pligrimsge among the outlying delegations for the purposs of recalling to their minds the fact that Malne had & candi- date o tho geld. They soon found thefr way to the Burnet. After brief visits to petty delegations stowed away on upper flnors, they dropped down stalrs Into the extensive parlor where the Illinolsans as- remble. None of the distingulshicd onen were present. Renator Logan and Mr., Farwell were away, therefare James P. Root was chosen mas- ter of ceremonies and condueted the hand- shaking. Then 8 M. Dow culogized the vir- tues of the children of Malne; sald llinols had no Presidential candidate, but thet Malne had, and the Sucker State would be glad to support him. There were cheers. Next came Judge IL. 8. Baker, of Alton, A BRISTOW MAYN, who, after stating that probably a majority of the delegation were in favor of Blaine, asked in- dulgence for others In the delegation who were in favor of some other man, and slould adhere 10 him through thick and thin. Difnoia would support the nominee whoever he might be, but the speaker’s preference was not Blalne. After gome remarks by Isaac Clements, who spoke for Egypt, the delegates from Malue Rathered themselves togetlier, and returned home uncertaln whetlier they had inade any con- verts or materlally poked up the dlinly burning watcli-fires, it BRISTOW, 118 PROSFECTS IMPROVING, Spectal Dispatch to The Tribune, Cixcrnxary, June 12.—Siduey 8mith arrived this wmorning. Before his arrival the Iillnols delegation was sct down as solid fur Blaine, but to-nlght it {s conceded that five of the delegates are for Bristow, and will vote for him on the first ballot, ond that uo attempt will be made to vote the delegotion na a unit. Bristow stock is looking up to-night, and the accession fn Michigan has fmproved his pros pects, His fricnds clalm for bim to-night 100 votes on the first ballot, and clafm that If Blalo I8 dropped more of bis strength will go to Bris- tow than to any other candidate. Ex-Gov. Morgan, of New TYork, it is stated is uoxious to run for Vice-President on the ticket with DBrlstow. Anthony, of Rhode Island, also secks the nomiuation for Vice-President on the ticket with Bristow, The Jatest effort to divert the Connccticut vute from Bristow, to whom it would ;o nfter the name of Jewell is withdrawn, is disclosed by the proposition that the ticket be Hayes and Jewell AN ENTRIUSIASTIC MEETING, An enthuslustic Bristow meeting was held to- night ot Pike's Opera House, at which there were over o thousand people present. It was a forerunner of n still larger ontpouring to-night at the same hall. The meeting was prestded over by Mr. T. D. Liucoly, oue of Cincinonti's cminent jursts and an out and out DBristow man. After eome able introductory remarks by the Chafrman, in which allusion was made to Sceretary Bristow’s fitness for the Presidency, the meeting was nddressed by Prof. . H. Rhynds, of Ann Arbor, Mich,, o delegate to ihe Conventlon, Prof, Riiynds' eloquent tribute to Bristow’s revord for honesty and his fearless sdministration of reve- nue affairs wos warmly applauded. He was followed by Mr. George Walker, of the Reform Club of New York, who revlewed Seeretary Bristow's Guvernmental services in conneetion with CIVIL-SERVICE REFORNS, and referred In terms of the highest praise to his capabilitics for filling the ofiice of Presi- dent. That part of his address which reviewed Mr. Bristow's thorough convictions on the sub- ject of honesty In the administration .of the Government and his devotfon to the hard-imoney principle struck the key-note, and was Ustened to with the deepest {nterest, and the speaker was rewarded with loud znd long-continued ap- plause. Heo was followed hy, Gen, Finnell, of Ken- tucky, an old friend of Gen. Bristow, and theres fore the better qualified to speak of the famous Secretary’s war career. He did not fall to show that on the fleld of battle Gen. Bristow was ever 18 brave, u8 truc to his duty, as he Las been sinee entering the public service. Mr. George F. Clark, now of California, but fortnerly o Clucinuntian, made some cloquent remarks descriptive of his belief in Bristow as THE ONLY MAN to unite all apposition, and win a glorious Re- publlean vietory this fall. The lust speaker of the evening was Mr, George Dupee, a colored man from Kentucky, who warmly advocuted Bristow's clafms to the Presldency, and spoke in encouraging terms of his strength fn Kentucky. The meeting was an unquallfied success, and was the precurser of another and larger turn- out for this cventng, when Dr. Bellows, of New York, and James Freeman Clarke, of Doston, are cxpected to address the meeting, The Bristow delegates to the Conventlon are highly pleased with the result of this evening's mcet- ing, showing us it does the local strength of their candidate and argulug well for the great contest of the week, TIE LAST LIE.

CincinNaTy, 0., June 12.~The attempt of the Conklingit:s to whip the entiro New York del- egation into the support of Conkling has thus far proved unsuceessful. After the inceting of to-dny they boasted that the entire delegatlon, with the exception of Georgs William Curtis, had agread to support Conkling, first, lnst, and all the thme, though it wus admitted Mr, Ao A. Low wus half-way ogaiust Conkling. Mr., Curtls, however, says there sre o number of the delegates who are opposed to Conkling, though they may vote for him on the first ballot, and possibly ufterward. There will bo two votes from the New York delegation on the flrst ballot, ‘Theso wre understood to bo those of Mr. Curtls and A. A. Low. BIDDING ACTIVE. The Conkling men are still on the lookout for delegates of loose virtue, and gentlemen who deslre fo dispose of themselves can do so just mow to the best advantoge. It is the desire of the Conkling men to re- Neve the delegates from ull these 1it- Ue preunfsry embnrrassments which prevent men from thinking clearly, capeclally upon such an fmportant subject-ns the nomination of a Tresident, It 1s believed by Conkling’s sup- porters thit there are some men hero who, if relieved froin the caro ahout bed and board, woukl tike a broad usnd enlightened view of the situation, and vote for Roseos Conkling. They have been looking for such men In the Californfa and Nevada dilegations, und stmong brethren from the Souts. The delegntes from the Gult States hate had Juxurlous carrlages placed at thefr vonmand, and have been viewing the poluts of interest i the suburbs, in which they tuke lessinterest, huwever, than in freo lunches, The Moron men sny that 10HODY HAS BEEN BOUGHT UP, clther anongg the colored men or the earpet baggers 1t §s impossible to tell i1l tho scrious voting leglus. 1t s pretty certain that Conk Hog s made o scrious Impression on the gold-lolug Catifornfuns, and it Is belleved he ha seeured ono man fn Ohio belleviig that when he got him ‘he got more, in whia he is believed to bo mistaken. Conlling meu were quict to-day, dolng ahl thelr work nolsclessly, but keeping at it all the ssme. The Cookling men to-dsy sre following ‘up their tactica of inelsting that the contest {s marrowed down to Blaine and Conkling. Thelr object n o doing is to make It easler to huy over Mor- ton's Bouthern support. The Blaine menrather encourage the notfon that the contest I8 between Blalne and Conkling, that they may rally to their support the Morton and the Bristow delegates of the West, who feel that Conkling's nomination means defeat. The result s that the canvass eeems heing narrowed down to Conkling and Blatne. The delegates who ssant nefthier, there 18 a prospect will he driven to support Hayes, In which event he will take the lead, o Ir. THR MORTON MEN COUNTIXG TIGH. #pecial Dispatch to The Tribune, CixcinNaty, June 12—The day hus been de- voted to Intrigues and counter-lntrizues, all #nrts of efforts at combinations In favor of can- didates; to the making up of slates, all the figuring on which lsn't worth anything; to more brag and blufl than ever on the part of the Conklingltes, and to a vast amount of talk by swelterlug defegates and politicians who to- night, did they confess the truth, would admit that matters were still very much mixed. Mor- ton's prospects seem changing, The Conkling- ites continue, as on yesterday, to barter for his Houthern rotten-horough vole ascoollyes though hewere a8 dead as a door-nall, and the only question was who should first selze upon his political estate. It is vonceded, however, on all sides that very much depends upon TIHE HESULT OP M. NLAINE'S ILLNESS. Everything that can possibly affect the action of the Convention is here fally canvassed, and the result discounted. So Mr. Blainc's {liness has been canvassed and the result discounted, and the geoeral oninfon §s that unless Mr. Blaine 50 far rccovers by Thursduy as to be able to go out or recelve visitors s usual, there Wil be next to no prospeet of his nomination. The rationale of ity as freely discussed here, §s that unless the speedy recovery prognosticated by Mr. Blatne's {riends, and for which every one hopes, does oc- cur by Thursday, it must be nccepted as the {nct that bis attack has heen most scrious, It is painfully recalled that it was a like mental stress and straln that proved fatal to Horace Greeley, end that Vice-President Wilson's Inst {llness resembled the sttack which has befallen Mr, Blaine, and a deal more {8 recalled that it would scem common decency might require fo be withheld for the present at least. The upshot of it all Is a wide-spread conviction ninong delegates that if Mr. Blaine's illness con- Unues serious hie OUGIT NOT TO BE NOMINATED. Rockwood Hoar but gave expresslon to the sentiment of many of the delegates favorable to Mr. Bluine when he sald to-day that ff Mr, Bluine were able to be up and out on Werdnes- day he (Hour) would vote for him, tmplying that If Mr. Blaine had not by that time eo far recovered he (Hoar) would vote agalust him. This state of feeling has done much to counter- act the rapid decline In Morton stock that set fn yesterday, 1t 1s s/lmitted that should Blaine be withdrawn, from the cause indivated, or from any other, that Morton would receive declded aceessions from Ohlo, Illinofs, Michigan, and othier Western States, This fact bas had weight with the Southern rotten-borough delegates, who, to put it plainly, scemed to be on the mar- ket yesterday., They are stiffening up in sup- port of Morton to-lay, and temporarily, at least, the defection fs arrested. The Morton men are, therefore, sanguine again, and ¢laim 200 votes on the flrst ballot. Judge Martindale, one of Morton's most enthusiastic supporters, admits that the number does not exceed 150, which by most purtics here s consldered as o Ligh estimate, ITEMS.

FRESIDENTIAL POOL-SRLLING. Poola were eold last night at Foley's on the Re- publican Prestdentlal nomination. The bldding whs quite lively, and the bets differed greatly, In the majority of cases Blaine and Conkling sold as favorites; in ono Instance Blatue sold for 810 to ou the feld, There wers two pools where Blalne, Bristow, Conkling, and Hartranft sold even, The pool-selling will be continued there till after the Convention, and during the Convention the progress witl bo marked aud the results of Lal- lota recelved by telegraph, TO THE CONVENTION, In the smoking-romn of the Pallinan car attached over the Kankakeo route, ing, the Hon, Norman I, Judd, Gen.

PRESS REPORT, MONTON'S BACKENS ENCOURAGED, Cixciyyaty, June 12.—The Morton men, starting with the nssumption that Blaine will nog recover in time to seeure the votes in the Conventlon he otherwise would, even if pre- sented there at all, are dn much better spirlts to- day than yesterday, clafming that the danger of the defeat of thelr candidate has lessened, and that what dunger ke has to fear comes from o new source, not as yesterday from Conkling, but from Hayes. They ussert that the effurts madu by the Conkling men to secure Southern votes, that being supposed to be the most vulnerable quarter, have failed, and that the delegates from that section, colored and white, remaln a8 yet fulthful to thoae whom they were pledged to support. The chief rellatce of Mor- ton is on accessiont which is belleved will cotne to him from Blaine men inthe Northwest and Northeast, should it be found that the latter could uot be nominated. It is cluimed that a third of the Iows, a portion of the Wisconsin, a sharoof the Michigan, a fraction of Illiuols, and protty full voto from Maiue, will go to Morton when Blaine drops out.

They ray that instead of the two votes for- merly allowed Bristow in Illinofs, he will have six: that after a ballot or two nearly all of the Misrouri delegatlon will unite on him. They admlt that as yet their force [x chicfly made up of reatterers of a few delepates from each State, but they clalm that those will stand firm acalnat oll pressure and persuasion, and will not allow them- selves to be coerced into letting thelr States vote as o unit. They wany of them reem to entertain no 1alth in Bristow's nomination, saying after Blaine irdizpored of Morton snd Conkling will unite to destroy Bristow, If iz no other way by giving the nomination to Ilayes, There was o meeting of Dristow men to-day, at which Solicitor Wilsun was present an the leading spirit. They counted up 160 votes which they clalm certaln for Bristow on the first formal ballot. HATES.

BRISTOW, TS REPUBLICANIBY, 7o the Edttor of The Tribune. Wasnxotas, June 10,—The Inter-Occan 18 ap- prebensive that it Bristow were elected President hie would follow tho example of Andrew Johnson, by going over to the Domocracy. But the caecs aro not exactly parallel; the difference being that Johnson wus an original Democrat, died-in- wool, of the Gen. Jackeon, old Frank Dlafr, Thomas Ritchle «teipe. He knew nothing else, and Inved nothing clee. He had the virtue to quit tho party when it Southern leaders precipltated tho South fnto a waur with the Government of tho, Unlon; hut he bad not the virtue to stay out of 1t when he had the example and encouragement of the Blairs to lead him back into the ancient fold, It will be remembered that Jahne on, on the 4th of March, 1805, had tho miafor- tune to be attacked with adisorder which prostrated him for s montl. He=pent o large part of this perfod under the hospitable roof of Mr. Blair at Sliver Spring; and, although he recovered from the malady, he took s Demncratic relapse, from 1hot tine, und grew worso and worse to the day of his death, [ Alr. Bristow, on the other hand, I8 of Whig sntecedents, 1Iis father was a Whig, of the Yeary Clay school, ond wae a member of tho House of Represcntatives at the commencomont of tho Rebelllon. Morcuver, Mr, Brlstow was a Unlon soldier: and it wonld indicate a etrungo idivsyncracy If, undor snch clrcumatances, he should join the party which brought on the War,— the porty which from his youth up he had learned to opposs und to dread as the Imbodiment of the principles of misgovernment. Thut Mr. Bristow has been pralsed by tho hones men of all parties for the integrity, abllity, and vigor he hax displayed in his high afiice, for tho fraud he “hus exposed and punished, und for tho milllons he bas thns eaved tothe Treasury, was to bo expected. The fact ls honorable to human nature, and (¢ required a reflnement of malice and misreprexentation to distort it fnto a subject of Dlame; ax if the official Integeity which hus ** wou goldew opiulons fromall surts of peopie,” ts a zround for susplcion of infidelity to Republican principles. 1t {s this character for integrity and anteepulity ay a pablic oflicer that hus won for Mr. Bristow ihe confdence of the peoplo, with- out dixtinction of party; nnd’ the praise that ~the Democratic ~press has heuped upon him_hus _gone far to make him formidable us u Presidentiol candldate, For, it he whonld be nomiusted, the Democracy will by catopped from ansailing hiin ax antrustworthy. 1ie wonld be by far the stromgest candidai the Tiepublicann caw put furward for the South, not bo- caune e 13 1 Sonthern tian by burth, and least of all becaune he Las any !ympnlh{ with the Kn-Klux Democracy, —for the fact Is well known that he fa the atern” foe to that class,—but becausy he fx believed to Lo honest, “and_ berduse ha {z in_ furor of a sound currency.
