CINCINNATYL, June 17.—It is as impossible for aDy one mun to sce or comprehend all that fs occusring before his eyes in a great convention like that of yesterday as for one man to see or comprehend all that is happening on a great battle-fleld between contending armics. The Convention proper consisted of nearly 800 dele- gates and 800 alternates, but there was a bedy of as many more and fully as sharp and infla- ential men as that which composed the Conven- tion itselL Thus there were more than 8,000 men actively participating in the great struggle of five torrid days’ duration, and this whole mass of members, alternates, and firregulars were in constant telegraphic. communication with the various candidates, and their leading friends at home. Dispatches were going and coming over the wires LIEE FLIGHTS OF ARROWS, by hundreds and thousands per hour. The last two days and nights of the Convention very many members were receiving telegrams from all parts of the Union urging them to stand fast by Blaine, or Morton, or Conkling, or Hartranft, or beseeching them to change to Bristow or Blaine. A continual stream of dispatches were sent to Blaine’s headquarters in Washington, and another stream {ssued thercfrom to his friends in the Convention, en- couraging them and instructing them how to act. The wires and resources of both telegraph companies were taxed to their utmost capacity, day and night, to accommodate the politicians and the press, and inform the pecople. The long, desperate battle was fought out, by means of the wonderful electric agency, IN FULL VIEW OF THE WHOLE AMERICAN NATION. Those who were hundreds and thousands of miles away could sece the mighty contest as it slowly but surcly progressed from the carefol preparation to the grand melec and final charge and rout of the beaten side as clearly and vividly as if they had been delegates themselves, and they were made to understand the changing pbases of the fight, theups and downs, the intrigues, and schemes, and plots, and counterplots, the growing strength and weakness of the respective factions, infinitely clearer from reading THE TELEGRAPHIC REPORTS than if they had been spectators in the galleries or in reserved seats, or had elbowed their way in the throngs that swamped the corridors or that sweltered in the numerous headquarters of State delegations in search of news. Those who remained at home and depended on the wires and newspapers were far wiser and more comfortable than the 50,000 men who rushed here in pursuit of knowledge and carly infor- mation, and to witness the struggle. Blaine had altogether the more powerfal and compact organiza‘ion of any of the candidates. His supporters, While considerably less than a majority of the Conveation, far outnumbered those of any other. They were imbued with the fiery audacity of their leader, under wWhose magnetism they RUSHED RECKLESSLY. FORWARD, like the French cavalry of Napoleon when led by Field-Marshal Murat. Indeed, Blaine’s tac- tics closely resembled those of that magnificent swordsman In more respects than one. But the over-coniidence of the Blaine men was theirruin at theend. They attempted to carry things by force, and exhibited altogether too domineering atemper. They would listen to nothing, ex- plain nothing. conciliate nobody, but rode rough-shod over everything with an impressive and deflant air. ‘Theg treated the otherfactions a8 if they were Democrats and Confederates, and enemfes to be defeated and put down; as insurgents and traitors to be hung up or shot down on sight, instead of recogniz- ing them as fellow-Republicans and members of the same political faith and family, entitled to respectful consideration and equitable treat- ment. Blaine had dashed like a mailed cavaller, lance in hand, at the Democrats and Confeder- ates in the House of Representatives, and put them to flight, and his tnfatuated followers saw in every Republican in the Convention, who was not shouting and whooping for Blaine, a Con- federate against whom they charged full tfit, DETERMINED TO BIDE O HEW HIM DOWN. _Bntme_yh;dmenwdulflm who were not to be crushed by any such tactics. Instead of play- ing off one faction against another, capturing some, coaxing others, and keeplng the opposi- non separated, and preventing a coalition by every means possible to devise, they actually drove them to act together by thefr insulting and domineering conduct. Curtis was hissed; Douglass was snubbed, and then thrown out of his scat. The Morton men were enraged by the rejection of the Spencer delegation from Ala- bama, and swore vengeance on Blaine's backers, who did {t. Bristow’s friends were insmited and soeered at as the “Only honest men,” and the * Holier than thon” gentlemen, because they and their leaders were opposed to stealing the revenue and to blackmailing the distillers. They hooted and jeered the demand for Civil- Service reform, and laughed at the idea of Governmental purification as a good joke. They regarded their fellow-ringsters who were urging Conkling with {ll-concealed anger and im- patience, because they refused to coalesce forces and support Blaine. THE FIRST PALPABLE BLUNDER the Blaine men committed when the Convention met on Thursday was in making McPher- son, of Pennsylvania, President of the Convention, for.this was throwing down the gauge of battle to Don Cameron and his clans. Itis true they gained a Chairman who wasa hot partisan of Blaine’s, and "to whom they could confide their plans, prearrange their motions, and sccure the floor at any time for their speakers, and obtain any ruling favorable to Blaine’s side or injurious to his opponents which wonld not outrage parliamentary law too much; but, on the other hand, they lost by this stroke of tactics. They made every opponent of Blaine suspicious of the fairness of the pre- siding officer, and watchful for tricks and par- liamentary legerdemhain. They withdrew from the body of the Pennsylvania delegation Blaine’s sharpest and ablest worker, and cooped him up in the Chair. But, worst of all, THEY MORTALLY OFFENDED DON CAMERON and his tribe, for it scemed Jike an open inten- tion of breaking him down and running over him. The plucky Scotchman lost no timein accepting thechallengetofight, and he put him- self promptly at the head of the anti-Blaine faction of his delegation. Tbe Pennsylvanid State Convention had instructed her dele- gation to vote as a wunit “in order that the power of the State should mnot be frittered away, and that it might_be cast solid in the vrisis of the fight where it wonld do ‘the most good for Pennsylvania, and that has always been the policy of that State. By the rule adopted by the Convention, the delegation was instructed to stick to Hartranft as long 28 a majority thdught he had any prospect. of suc- cess. At the instance of the Blaine men, st a caucus of the delegation here, it was resolved that at any time, on the demand of twenty members, the delegation should re- tire for consultation in regard b dropping Hartran{t and substitutiog some other candidate. It was understood _all the time, from Sunday until Friday morning, that Blaine had 40 or 44 votes, against 18 or 14 for Conkling or Morton. They were perhaps ten or a dozen who would support Bristow as against Blaine. Camecron knew that it was not irr his power to secure a majority of his delega- tion for Conkling, which, of course, would carry with it the entire 53 votes. THE NEW YORK DELEGATES ASSISTED ITM in every possible way to get control of 30 votes, which would enable him to swiog the whole strength of the delegation to their favorite son. They worked to this end desperately, almost frantically, and it was while they were engaged in this effort for scveral days that they would listen fo no overture in regard to Hayes or any other candidate, as they lived in hourly hope that, by some stroke of good fortune or other means, thirty members of the Pennsylvania dele- gatlon could be brought to sce on Which side their bread was most thickly buttered. But the time never came. Don Cameron, however, was equal to the emergency. He fully determined that, happen what might, the fifty-eight votes of Pennsylvania SHOULD NEVER BE RECORDED FOR JAMES G. BLAINE for President. Blaine’s men had savagely assafled the Presi- dent for appolnting him Sceretary of War, and his father for suggesting the appointment, and himself for accepting it. The telegraph wire bore a message home to Simon Cameron, whose langusge mo man knows, but whose import many now guess. Immediately telegrams began to shower upon the delegates from all parts of the old Keystone State, that the dignity of the State had been insuited in the person of the Secretary of War; that Pennsylvania had a right to have a scat in the Cabinet, and that Don Cameron could not be humiliated without the degradation also attaching to every truc-born Pennsylvanian. These missives per- formed their mission. The work was gotin well, and the Blaine phalanx of forty-four WAS BROKEN AND DEMORALIZED, and never again united. Don’s next move was to hold his delegation to Hartranft solid up to the decisive moment. Meanwhile the dispatches continued to pour in from all parts of the State upon the delegates, telling them not -to desers the Secretary of War, but to stand by him in order to keep casting the fifty-eight votes for Hartranft to the right time to change. Don made arrangements to borrow some votes from Morton, Conkling, and Bristow, chiefly the former, to be cast for Hartranft to keep his fel- lows in hope and prevent the Blaine men from demanding the withdrawal of their “favorite son.” Thus, on the second ballot, Jones loaned four votes from Nevads, and Col. Holloway two of Morton’s men from North Carolina. On the next ballot Florida detailed three votes to Hart- ranft, Nevada two, North Carolina eight, and Vermont one,—the latter suspected to be a Bristowite in disguise. But now THE TROUBLE BEGASN. Three of the Pennsylvanisus broke through the rule of voting asa unit, and insisted on baviog their votes counted for Blaine. They could not be fooled into standing by the *fa- voriteson™ of Pennsylvania any longer. This revolt at once produced a row amoog the Penn- sylvania delegates, which spread into the Con- vention. McPherson, the Blaineite Chairman, decided that the three rebel votes must be re- corded for Blaine. The Secretary of War promptly appealed tothe Convention. Heac- cused the Chairman of violating the very rule whict be and bimself helped to frame fn the Pennsylvania Convention. McPherson called the Don Y disgrace to his State, and Don hurled back the charge that he was a traitor to the party’s rules and traditions. Col. Dick Thompson, of In- dians, sprang to the floor and administered a reproof to McPherson for his personal attack on the Chalrman of the Pennsylvania delegation. McPherson first denied using the obnoxious ex- pression, and next withdrew Iit, but an angry debate extended over the Convention on the questlon of sustaining the decision of the Chalr. One side, headed by Col. Thompson, argued in favor of maintaining the rules adopted by the State Conventions in respect to instructions of delegates, as the latter were selected by the Convention, which was therefore the constituent ‘body. . The other side had, by Robert G. Inger- soll, denounced gag laws, and insisted on the personal liberty of the representative. and his right to vote as he pleased,and that the roles and resolutions of the Convention were paramount to all State Instructions, traditions, and orders. The Chair was. finally sustained by ayes 395, noes 333. The Blaine men rezarded it as A GBEAT TRIUMPH. insuring the nomination of their favorite, and they cheered vociferously. ' But Don Cameron remarked, ** The fools have hoist themselves on their own petard,” and the sequel provedit.

On the sixth ballot ¥ declared for Blaine, buton the decisive vote which wonld win or lose the battle, ine stead of having 58 votes for Blaine, they bad bot barely 30, while 28 voted for Haves amidst shouts and yells that fairly shook the rafters of the Convention building. They Jeft here with forty-four votes, but by blundering let the canny Scot_capture fourtecn of their men. With the solid Pennsylvania vote Blaine would have been triumphantly nomi- xl:ealcd. 15‘"‘:1 llh :‘tge rocr,z‘ytuur votes that had en claime stuck to would have been Hae e Teeule REDUCED FEARFULLY CLOSE AND DOUBTFUL, as the seventb ballot would have sl.oodn:'afl:\ cs, 370; Blaine, 305, with 21 votes cast for grh— tow. Before the break commenced, Blaine would probably have been beaten in the eighth ballot, as Hayes seemed to have the bulge ou him, but it might not havc heen hy as much as five votes. Several of the carpet- bag delegations were composed of very slippery Fcntlemcn. anda balance of power once in their hands, there is no telling what they might not have donc with it, or what it might have cost to induce them to part with it; but Cameron was {uar(ully avenged upon his enemies. He cams 0 NOMINATE CONKLING OR DEPEAT DLAINE. Failing in the former, be achicved the latter, and was happy. He punished McPherson to his heart's content, and quelled the rebellion in his rapks. He went home master of the situation, and high chief of all the clans. The first break in favor of Hn{’a was made by Michigan on the sisth ballot. Up to that time Blaine had been getting 8 to 6, Bristow 9 to 11, and Hayes 4. Gov. Howard, who was tho leader of the delegation, concluded that the time had come for the Haycs movement to be- gin. The whole delz}inunn could not be con- centrated either on Blaine or Bristow, but all agreed to follow their venerable and veteran leader for Hayes, who cast the 22 votes of his State solid for fl’ayes. 2 « TIE ONIO MEN WERE SET WILD, and there was great commotion and extreme Dervous excitement from that moment untid the struggle was over. To Howard belongs tho honor of leading the coalition forces. 5 ‘When the Illinois delegation reached Cincin- onday, they were set down as 40 for Blaine and two doubtful. The ringmasters—Logan, Farwell, and Root— commenced the work of whipping in those two recusant delegates,— 5dney Smith and_ Judge Baker,—but tho barder the lash was applied the mora they were not whip) in. jumb-screws had no more influence than whips. Scorpions were tried, but they were not to be moved from their convictions. ere were Bristow men in Illi- nolis to be represented as well as Blaine men. Honesty and reform were entitled to votes as well as the Whisky Ring and the machines. The an.rx_nsf.wdngoon these two fearless and in- dependent delegates RESULTED IN DOUBLING THEIR NUMBER on the first ballot, nlmi?’ 3 for Bristowand 1for Hayes. On the sixth Blaine only recelved33from Tlinofs. Bristow, the man who was to have no votes from Illinois, got five, and Haycs three, and Washburne two. ~Thus, on the sixth ballot, instead of Blaine getting fany«twa, asthe mae chine-ringsters declared he would have, ten votes were recorded agsinst him.

Every element in the Republican party, every man who ever called himself a Republicun, is in honor bound to support Gov. Hayes. No ublican can frame any excuse for not ing so. All the factions can pull to- ether for him, and I really do not see fiow it is possible for the Democrats and Confederates to beat Hayesand Wheeler. The latter will add 10,000 votes to the ticket in New York, where he enjoys the respect and contidence of all classes. TIn the South the ticket will prove unexpect- edly strong.

A TERRIBLE PERIL AYERTED. Looking over the entire work of the Conventfon 1 am very sure that not only was a terrible perit tothe Hepublican party averted, but that the very wisest nominations under all the circum- stances were made, and the universal popular approval with which the nominations are hafied, from Maine to_ California, proves that the Con- vention committed no mistake Of all the po- litical conventions ever held in the United States, it was the largest, loudest, fought hard- est, most exciting, and, in the end, most recon- ciled to the conclusions, and in the best temper, and most contident of a glorious vic- tory. JO M. HOW THEY LIKE IT. HAYES. YROM THE HOME OF THE NEXT PRESIDET. Special Dirpaick to The Trivuna. CoLtusus, 0., June 17.—To-day has been the most eventful day in the life of Ratherford B. Hayes that he ever experienced. It is only comparable to the day when the dispatch was received by Abraham Lincoln that he was nomi- nated for the Presidency. Gov. Hayeshas often becn congratulated by a grateful constituency, but to-day he has been overwhelmed by an ens tirely different class of enthusiasts. To many thonsands his nomination was considered =t equivalent to an election. Of these thousands there have been scores who were anxious to b first in their congratulations. By the noot traln from Cincinnati came » hundrel leading men from the Cincinnati Couvention, and as the same crowd beset Abraham Lincoll in 1860, s0 it 4 BRSET GOV. HATES TO-DAY.
