The noon train bronght a large number of delegates on thelr way home, and of course they had to stop over and congratulate the Governor on his nomination. A brass band met them at the depot, and marched them up-town to the Capitol, where speeches were made by Mflton Barnes, Repab- lican candidate for Secretary of State, and Judge A. B. Sloansker, of Lounisiana Gov. Hayes made no response. He remsined in his office, and greeted every one with the same freedom and cordislity that has always been his babit. The large and spacious Executive cham- ‘bers were filled with =1l sorts and conditions of people, and vet nobody acted as usher or intro- duced the callers. Laboring men, professional men, negroes, male or female,— - IT MADE ¥O DIFFERENCE TO EIM,— every one was welcome, and for every one he had a Xind word. There was no assumption of modesty, no evidence of pride or gratulation. He knew that the eyes of 40,000,000 of people were centered on him, and yet his modesty and honesty overcame him. Judge Hale and other leading Eastern men came by the noon train, but Gov. Hayes gave them only short Interviews.

A SURPRIZE. Special Dispaich to The Tribune. NEw Yomg, June 17.—The nominatfon of Hayes was at ‘once & surprise and disappoint- ment to New York RepubHeans. The Custom- House people belicved that the combination, if made, would be on Washburne, the delegation of this State having so decided on the advice of Conkling and Thurlow Weed, who was known to be active for Washburne. The Blaine men were at first disappointed, but finally satisfied with the addition of Wheeler to the ticket. The Democrats were rejoiced at the nomination of Hayes, but disgusted when Wheeler was added. ‘They admit that if the Republicans can carry Ohio and Indiana in October, their ticket will be. very strong in. this Btate in November, and probably successful by a heavy majority. They ssy that the nomina- . tion of an Ohfo man and the withdrawal of an Indiana man in his favor as an initial movement of & combination on Hayes, gives” assurance of A REPUDLICAN SUCCESS in October and November. Tammany Democrats say thestrength of the Hayes and Wheeler ticket lics in the fact that it forces the nomination of Tilden. New Yorkis looked on as the battle- ground in November. Tilden’s great strength lies inthe fact that the delegates from other Btates belicve he can carry the State, as they know pothing of the serious dissensions existing here. Therefore Tilden will get strong sup- port in the Convention from other States, althongh his own delegation will be dlvided. This, with the depressing effect of October’s de- feat in Ohio and Indians, will leave New York to go Republican asby default. Besides, the Democrats_here 0] ly say Tilden will be &langhtered in Ohio, where last year be con- tributed to the defeat of Allen in ‘order to kill him off 28 & rival for the Presidency. THE FEESS.

Lfl(ile g_’s‘ pla:t:g]m it represents the very heart ang and splendid antecedents of the Rennblkznsp y.” The ing Post says that the nomination of Hayes and Wheeler clevates and purifies the canvass beyond what counld have been expected under any politicians’ administration. A bad and weak sclection by the Republicans would have induced the Democrats to belicve that they conld succeed with any man, or without any rinciples. Now it is marifest that they must 50 elr very best at St. Louls if they would The Ezpress (Democratic) says: _“ The nom- “tnations aae at Glncinatl afc simited t0 b i respectable in the character of the men, with some rience in the civil service.” Speaking of the forthcoming St. Louis Con- vention, the same paper says: * The eelection of & Western man and Governor by the Re- publicans may lead to the choice of a’ Governor 2nd a Democrat from the West, with a Vice- President from the East.” # WHAT THURLOW WRED 8AYS. Very few prominent men in politics remain in town.” Thurlow Weed wanted Washbarne, but saye: “The nomination abundantly vindicates the independence and sense of the Con- vention in these days of painful demoralization, with a tainted political atmosphere and a popu- lar sensibility heretofore urknown. It would have been perilons, if not fatal, to put 3 weak Republican against'a stropg Democrat. I do Tot credit the Democracy with sense enough to nominate a strong tickel. The nomination of Hayes and Wheeler will aronse and unite in this State sall the enthu- siasm which cheracterized our relations dur- ing the Rebellion.” When asked what he thought of Gov. Tilden’s strength, Mr. Weed said: “I am willing to be put on record for expressing the opinion that if Gov. Tilden is the Democratic candidate for President or Governor, the Republican_ State ticket will be el by from 30,000 to 50,000 majority.” JOSEPI H. CHOATE, who may be considercd the most prominent rep- resentative in town of the Republican Reform Club, which figured at Cincinnati in the Bristow interest, said that the nomination would do more to heal the differences existing in the party then any other that comld have been made. The name of Congressman William A. Wheeler for the sec- ond place on the ticket, in his opinfon was an excellent selection, and would insure the elec- tion of the ticket in this State. He was certain that a stronger combination could not have been found than the present ticket. Alslone, the home of Mr. Wheeler, was brill- tiantly flluminated last night, while bells were rung and cannon fired: In other towns of the State the Republicans showed their satisfaction with the ticket by firing guns.

NEw Yonk, June 17.—The Eveniny Los! tele- phed representative members of the cele- mlcd Fifth-Avenue Conference on the Cincin- nati nominations, and rezeived replies as fol- lows: From Mark Hopkins, of Williamstown, Mass.: “Personally I think Hayes’ nomination as excellent a one as Mr. Bristow’s would have been. I go forjt.” Ex-President Woolsey, of Yale, ays: I like Hayes’ hard-money views, and have general trust in him.” ‘Pr?: Sumner £a; :é “1 suppose ththu::‘eni tion is to:be regar as an effort on the: part o the American people to select a statééman for their Chief Magistrate. In that view it scems t0 me a farce.” J WASHINGTON. ENTHUSIASY. Special Dispasch to The Tribune. ‘WAsHINGTOS, D.'C., June 17.—The eathusi- asm among the Republicans over the nomina- tion of Hayes and Wheeler increases. The President talks very frecly aboutit. He said this morning that he considers it a very strong ticket and a winning ticket; that it will cer- tainly secare for the Republican party in No- vember the important States of Ohio, Indiana, and New York. The Democrats cannot conceal their annoyance and dismay at the nomination of Hayes. They had relied upon the nomination of Blaine, and had made extensive plans to pur- sue the investigation against him. Mr. Hewitt, of New York, it is said, even claims to have knowledge that the famous Caldwell dispatch was sent to this country at the in- stance and guarantee of a prominent Western railroad man. Al the Democratic plans are BROUGHT TO NAGGHT E by the nomination of Hayes and Wheeler. The Democrats are soundly abusing the Judiciary Committee to-day for baving made such progress with the railroad investigation before the Cincionati Convention. The Democrats seem quite as much displeased with their failure to eecure the candidate they had expectedas they are with the one which has been chosen. Sunset Cox, referring to his acquaintance with Hayes in Congress, said *He is° a firstrate fellow.” = Ben Hill, of Georgla, says: “‘Idread Hayes’ nomination more than that of anybody else. Carter Harrison says that it is the best that could be made by the Republicans, It is composed of the twoex~ ceptionably pure men who were mentioned in connection with it. Banning, Saylor, Southard, Frank Hurd, and Ohio Democrats generally, ad- mit that it is A TICEXT OF GREAT §TRENGTH. The _singular purity of Hayes - gonal character is well illustrated by a stgetc- ment made here to-day. A Western Demo- cratic newspaper, during the last Gubernatorial Convention in 6hin, lched a trusty cor- respondent to the localities where Hayes has | lived, to discover if possible some objectionable story relative to his private character, of which the Democrats wished to make usc in a cam- paign of personal defamation.

Hayes. Senator Conkling says: ~ “The ticket is an excellent_ome.. 1 ‘know Gov. Hayes onally.

ENTHUSIASTIC RECEPTION OF THE NOMINATION. Special Dispatch to The Tribune. PriLapeLruis, June 17.—The Hartranft Club, on the way home from Cincinnatf, have become transmogrified, and appear on the streets this evening under the strange name of the Hayes Club. The white-hatted delegation, notwithstanding the mortifsing reflection that Pennsylvania failed to carry a single pointin the National Convention, have returned home as they went forth, with fiying colors. Bandsof musicgreeted them at the depot, and a large concourse of citizens welcomed them with cheers, and joined in A TRIDMPHAL PROCESSION through the principal streets of the city. The scene recalled the old Wide Awake procession of the Lincoln campaign. Many of the people inline had brought out their old torches, and again set them burning with somewhat of the old Republican enthusiasm. The procession, nearly half 2 mile In length, passed down Mar- ket and up Chestout streets, accompanied by ‘bands of music playing military airs. In front of the Union League club-house, on Broad street, there was a stop, while sky-rockets and other fireworks were displayed. There was NO SPEECH-MAEING, the regular native orators not having yet recov- ered from their exhausting efforts in the Con- vention. ) The tide of public opinion is setting strongly in favor of Haves, the transparencies borne by the procession containing mottoes such as 4 Hayes, the Soldier Statesman’—*Pennsylva- nia will give Hayes 25,000 majority ""—were fre- quently and loudly cheered by the crowds of bystanders. ‘The papers here all speak highly of Hayes. The Eveniug Telegraph says: It would inade- quately express our satisfaction with the nomi- nation'of Gov. Rutherford B. Hayes to say that it quite zealizes our hope, that it is infinitel beiter than the platform, and that instes of falling flat, as the latter did, it has cxcited, and will continue to excite, the warmest enthu- siasm. His name and record, and unconquer- able integrity, which it covers, are better than any platform.” The Bullelin says: “Gov. Hayes has shown power of a kind which seems tous to be_especially deserving of admiration. He has achieved most worthy honors by wnlun% till they were offered to hiim, as the result of spontaneons popular recognition of vallant ser- ce faithfully performed.” He has received the dt:voledh afl l‘;?s od! tlbt?‘éehwhrz \rlnmwd his career, oing uty with a single 5e SPhich forpade the mdmlgence in selish ntriga for rewards.” ILLINOIS.

In 1860, the Democrats met in Charleston, in April. Inattempting to fix up a platform there Sax FRANCISCO, June 17:—In commenting on the nominations at Cincinnati this morning the Call says: “ We regard this as a strong ticket. The nomination of Hayes will consolidate the entire Republican party. The country has heard Tess of him than of Blaine, Morton, Conkling, or Bristow, but has heard only good of him. We do not know a prominent man with a more im- preguable reputation.” ‘The Chronicle remarks: * The ticket isstrong —a fact which will be more generally recognized than it now is, when the stress of the canvass begins to be felt. The Republicans can now enter upon the canvass, carrying no weight, and free to wage anaggressive warfare. Hayes is, in point of availability, the wisest choice that could have been made, with thesingle exception of Bristow.” The Alla comments: *In common witha vast majority of Republicans of this clty, we feel a measure of disappointment at the defeat of Blaine as the candidate for President. But this effect will pass away the more they know of Gor. Hz{gs and his antecedents. Ofall the candidates before the Convention, mnext to Blaine, Gov. Hayes is the most popular. Gen- erl sentiment, o far as it has found expression, seems to be that Hayes was the second choice of almost every one, and the nomination wili secure the united support of the party. The only sore-heads, if any, will be found among the Federal brigade. = Wheeler’s nomination gives general satisfaction.” THE PEOPLE. The nominations meet with increased favor and enthnsiasin as the political situation and merits of the candidates are more fully dis- cussed. Straight Republicans and Independ- cents alike express co) approval of the work THE CREDENTIAL COMMITTER retired down-stairs to an ante-room, and the Convention resolved itself into a minjature pan- demonium gending their return. The clapping of “hands announced the coming of the Committee, who were absent about an hour, listening to the claims of the contestants, and they had a hot time of it. The Chairman made several ineffectual at- tempts to restore order, but finally succeeded, and Mr. Van Buren, as Chairman of the Com- ‘mittce on_Credentlals, read the list of dele- gates. Mark Sherldan's delegation from the new “bloody Fifth Ward” was nccepted in place of the Healey-Hall delegution.

THE COUNTY CONVENTION. ; ‘The Democratic County Convention for the gelection of delegates to the State Convention which meets at Springfield next Thursday was held in Union Hall yesterday afternoon, and was marked with the wildest and most nolsy confusion imaginable. Like many similar as- semblages, it was composed largely of a class of men who insist upon being heard first, last, and all the time, and unless they are recognized by a whole convention, they desire to drown every- one clse’s voice in a £ea of confusion. “Yester- day’s gathering of the unwashed and unterrified representative Democrats, and the rabble who tlon, the country men were allowed to consult, and another scene of noisy confusion ensued. ‘While the dffferent town and ward delegations were deliberating in groups over their Spring- field representation, the confusion becdme g‘r:‘atcr, and order was not restored for some time. ‘The Secretary attempted to call the roll of the wards, but bod scarcely proceeded when Mr., ‘Van Buren made a motion that the alternates sent to Springficld act as delegates. John C. Riazhcrg declared the speaker out of order, and a cross-fire ensucd between him and another delegate who supported Van Buren’s motion. The motion was withdrawn, .. FOR TILDEN. Dan O'Hara had a resolution which he knew would be approved by ever{ onc present, and read it from the platform. When the name of Tilden was reached loud cheers and applause ensued, and a similar demonstration was made when he closed the reading. The resolution is as follows: Resolved, That the Democracy of Cook County, among the several distinguished Democrats who Dave been named for the Presidency, herchy ex. rean their decided preference for the Hon. Samuel . Tilden, of New York, he embracing by his pub- lic action all the ne:e:u;{!qnnlmullum for repre- gentation in the admindstration of the General Government of our country, and that his ante- cedents as a statesman are in entire accord with the ancient principles of the National Democratic party, being honest and capable. Gen. Lieb offered three cheers for Tilden, and they were given in a rather mixed manner. Some one madc a motion to adopt the resolu- tion, when a wild Irishman jumped up and said, “ Before putting that motion, Mr. Chairman, I Lh!ut:’ you are springing a trap on the dele- tes. Loud gells greeted him, and, on his insisting on a right to speak before the motion was put, he was cried down, and declared out of order. John Forsyth Insisted on his districy having five delegates instead of four, and a motion to that effect was ruled out of order, after Mr. Rountree had a?lnined that the gentleman was . mistaken in his figures. A delegate moved that each delegation be al- lowed to sclect [ts own alternates, and, after the defeat of an amendment, 1t was put and carried. THE TWO-THIRD RULE. Dr. F. E. Cook offered the following: Resolred. That this Convention tnstruct the dele- gates to the State Democratic Convention to in- struct the delegntes to the National Convention to abolish the former rule of late years in the Nation- a1 Democratic Convention, that is to say, **That the chofce shonld be a two-third ballot to make nominations,” and that we will now return to the After three days hot wrestling of the best ele- ments of the Republican_party against the cohorts of machine politicians, we can, with josful con- fidence of victory, place the names of the nest President and Vice-President of the United States at the head of our columns. It waea hot bLattle and it is a closely acquired victory, butitisa vic- tory which saves the country the poseibility, that the rotten, incorrigible Dumncm:{v can with good candidates, deceive the undecided and thus gain the supremacy. The Neue Freie Preese particalar- Iy can look npon e victory with eaticfaction. On the 9th of June last did we mention R, B. Hayes as an able as well as an honest map, and withont the continued _indefatigable exertions of our next friends at the place of the Convention, the three votes. the breaking off of which from the phalanx of Blaine decided the victory for Hayer would not have been gained. utherford B, Hayes is a man who has behind him a long life full of honest labor, who in war and in pesce, on the battlefield which he saturated with his blogd, in the ofiice of Governor of Obio and in the House of Representatives, has always done_his whole duty. Nothing characterizes the man better than that after a public activity of near- Iy trenty years his adverearies did ot even make the attempt to accuse him of a dishonorable action when he ran for Governor of Ohio against the in- flationists last fall. Hayes fs what the conntry needs, —a firm character with a quick apprehension and a strong hand who will introdnce stralght or- derin the system of Government offices. William A. Wheeler, the candidate for Vice- President, {salso a man’ of acknowledge honesty and ability, and by tho fact, a4 well founded as settled, distrust against the Democrate, who are always ready to show their incorrigibleness, the victory of the Republicans with such candidates as Hayes and Wheeler is well asssured. . The joy of the citizens of Cincinnati over the nomination of both_candidates and the defeat of the machine politicians knew no bonnds., Carl Schurz, who was actively workingat Cincinnatiin the interest of reform, i8 well satisfied with the ticket, and will take part In the campaign. _His eloquente will add not a little to swell mightily the msjority of both candidates.
