He was a good- natured, carnest_gentleman of a littie past 30 yeurs, and Mr. Droke introduced him to the press man.

The geninl Baw Turner was questioned as to his feelings over the result, and e concurred with the other gentlémen,—that Gov.

LEONAND SWETT was exceedingly pleased with the news from the Conyentlon, e chuckled when he thought of the opiniun which ho bud expressed the nisht Letore to o TRIBUNE reporter that Blalne would lose strength atter the third ballot, and that (y cusa therd was u necessity foru iird i Blaine would nut be mninulul. Then Bwett turned bis conversation on to the nom fnces, 'The nowmination of Wheeler, althongh Mr. Whedler was, in his oplnlon, ' very fhie man, would, ie thought, weaken the vurl.y 'y Tittle In certaln quarters in New York, 1t will break the nosca of the Conkling mun," sajd Mr, Bwett. Tho fact that Conklin waa refected fu the Coovention wasa mors which they of the Cunkllng famlly could not and would not swallow. "I'v'ullow suother New Yurk Republican auywhere near the hend of the ticket, would, it appeared to Mr. Bwett, be the slgual fur o o=y of prestige onthe part of Cunlis ling, Conkling has becn the lender of the Koe publleaus, ot & large number of them, in New Yurk Ctiy, snd it would be a sad blow to bim to sce a rival tuke his pluce. 8o far ws Ohfo woy concerned, Mr, Swett hat but ons opluion to olfer, und that wus that it would be carried by Mr. Iayes b uuuvwrwhclmlnglhm ority.

CAMEROYN, a well-known Chicago Dentocrat, was of the opinfon When questivued laat night that the Re- tibllean nomnfnees will be very hard to beat. 0 the General's oplnion, they tend to unite the disafTected {mrllrmu of the Republican party and strengthen the whole. THR HON, PLLIOTT ANTHONY wns one of the happlest men Inst evening that ono would meet in a mile’s walk, Did the notn- inatlon suft Wim? Why, bless your soul, thoy wero perfection itsell,” Mr. Anthony thought that the nomination would aid tho Republimns in presenting a linc of battlo that could not be broken. In his opinlon, it was 28 atrong a ticket a8 could have been nominated. It would scttle the question as t6 which party was going to carry Ohfo. Tho nomination of ‘Wheeler would sult the New York Reform Clubs, and musr{‘ s T“‘ many Now Yorkers who might have thonglit otherwise had any onc clag been nominated, except, porhaps, Bristow or Washburne, AUTING-MAYOR COLYIN was met hy o TRIBUNE reporter Inst evening, ns he was weinding his way down Clark atrect, and asked nbowt thie vomination, Ho sald that he wan {u favor of Jim Blalne hefore the nomina- tion hiad beenmade, for the reason that hie *liked e style,” mnd thought that ho twas o much hetter man for the nomination than Bristow, who, inhis _opinion, wuasnot near so popular & man, The nomination of Iayes somewhat surprised him by its brilllavey and Judiciousuess. Tlnyes nnd Wheeler would'make stronger candidates than even Blaino and any ong elsoy hie was certnin that the tickot eonld goout of Tlinols with at_least 20,000 Lo 40,000 majority; the question of New York or any Re- publicai in the Stato bolting on account of thelr et eandidato being beaten was one that could ha casily nnawered. New York would do no such thlnfi‘ It would stand hy the pominces; the Republican Reform Club of New York add they wero ns well pleased s though Bristow had been nominated, and would throw thelr full strength n favor of tho ticket. Tha speaker would vota for. Ilayes and Wheelor, and was sure that they would be elected, AT THE CITY-HALL the Convention was the tople of the day. Every bullot was watched with intenso cagerness by thoso slding with elthior candidate. “Every ono asked “How's It going! no lcss than fifty times, and “mo:llu ot of work was several times {nterrupty b{ falso alarms. Re- orts that laina hnd beon nominated, hat Dristow had been nominated, or that Conkling had been nominated wero rapldly spread from mouth to mouth, so that when the nal result was miade known, ft waa recetved with Incredulity, After the nomination had been repeatedly told over and over again, & general and genuine surprise scttled down upon the denfrons of that inuch-disturbed quarter. It was 80 late in the afternoon when the question wus acttled in the minda of the city ofllelals that but few of them found time to express nn opinion before galng home. All day Jong those aeers, Pmphcw. and suothssyers who make the City-Ilull o regulnr “hang-but” were nirlng thelr opinfons. It 18 needless to remark thut none of tham hit upon the successtul candidate. Itwas generally remarked thot 1layes wos sire of sccond place, but over the lirst name for the ticket thore wos much disputo. CINRF-OF-FOLICE NICKEY was an out-and-out Bristow mau from the start, aud had hoped that Bonjamin Ils would be the numinee; but when the news broke that Blnine waa_nowhers, and that the name of Hayes headed the ticket, e was not much displeased, o could and would indorse Hayes and Wheeler. They wera men of ability, Integrity, and tnflu- ence. “1Hooray for l(vcll" Blaine was too much Indorsed by the Whisky Ring, 1t was o leasure to him ‘that he was defeated. ‘There Hm.l been too much machinery there, and it did not scem to hjm that the public wanted a man who -had to make oxplanations. Hayes und Weeeler wero good men,~sound men in charac- ter and mind. ~ It was well CITY-ENGINEER CIESBROUGH was formerly for Blaino but ho (Chesbrough) would uot sct his mind ngafnst the conclusious of so many men who represented 80 much pub- lic optnion. ayes and Wheeler were good men and thelr records were good. It became the duty of goud Republicans to {fodorse such men. DAN D'IIARA, «ox-City Treasurer, helit decided views upon the nomination of Mr. Ilayes. Daneclaims to be one of tho stanchest kind of Democrats—In fact, Stephen A, Douglas was his l51t.|llllvul Gamaliel, 80 W speak, Mr. O'Hara pald that the only fea- ture in the churocter of Mr. Huyes—who wius politician and a partisan as well—which might commend "him to the attention of the people na a candidate for the Presidency waa his obseurity. He would mentlon, as au incident of history, the fact that fn 1853, when Stephen A, Dougliss was the choleo of the Western States for the Presldential vacancy on the Democratie ticket, an obscure individual was taken up from tho Btateof New Hampshire, Ilis mame was Frankln Plercs, whoso only recomuendation was that ho fought in the Mex- lean War and fainted on tho fleld of buttle.

Ilis politieal anteeedents, It was alleged, wonld not bear comparison with those of either Blalne or Bristow. It waa s weak nomination in aword. 1f Bun Tilden, of Now York, or Tom Hundricks, of Indjuns, were nominated by the Democerats in the Conventon in 8t.
