" PHE CONVENTION. The Day After tho Battle at Cincinnotd. A Calm Review of the Great Contest. Tha Part Played by the Pennsyl- vanians. IIow Binine Was Defeated and Hayes Nominated. All Ropublieans Can Support the Tlcket, [From The Sunday Tridune.] CINCINNATI, June 17.—It {4 a8 {mpossiblo for any oue nan to sce or comprehend all that s oceurring hefore his eyes Ina great convention ko that of yesterday s forone soldier to see or comprehend all that {s happening on s great battlefleld between contending armies. The Conventlon proper consisted of nearly 800 dele- gates and 800 alternates, but thers was a body of as many more and fully as sharp and influ- ential men s that which composed the Conyen- tlon itself. Thus there were more than 3,000 mcen actively participating in the great struggle of five tortld doys’ duration, and this whole mass of members, alternates, and frregulars were in constant telegraphic communiention with the varfous candldates, and thelr lending friends at home. Dispatches were going and comlng over the wires LIKE PLIGITS OF ARROWS, by hundreds and thousands per hour. The last two days and nights of the Convention members were recelving telegrams from all parts of tho Unfon urging them to stand fast Ly Blafne, or Morton, or Conkling, or Hartranft, or Dbesceching them to change to Bristow or Blalne. A continual strcam of dispatchies were sent to Blafne's headquarters in Waushington, and another stream fssucd thcrefrom to his friends fn tho Conventfon, encouraging and {nstructing them how to act, Tho wires and reeources of both telegrapht companies were taxed to thefr utmost capacity, day and night, to accommodate the pollticians and the press, and inform the people. The long, desperate battle was fought out, by means of tho wonderful clectric agency, IN FULL VIEW OF TIE WUOLE AMERICAN NATION. Thoso who were hundreds and thousands of mlles nway could sce the mighty contest 28 It slowly but surely progressed from the careful preparation to the grand meles and finat chargo snd rout of the beaten slde, na clearly oud vividly as if they had been delegates themselves; and they were made to understand the changlng phases of the fight, the ups snd downs, the Intrigues and schemes, and plots and counterplots, the growing strongth and weakuess of the respective factions, infinficly elearer from reading THE TELEURAIIIO REPORTS than if they had been spectators in the galleries or in reserved seats, or had elbowed their way In the throngs thut swamped tho corrldors or Lt sweltered in tho numerous headquarters of State delegations In search of news, Thosc who remained at home snd depended on the wires and newapapers were far wiser and more comfortable than the 50,000 men who rushed here in pursult of knowledga and ecarly Infor- matfon, snd to witness the struggle. Ilaine had altogetlier the most. powerful and compuct organizution of any of the candidates. 1lis supporters, while considerably less than o majority of the Conventlon, far outnumbered those of any other candldate. They were tm- bued with the flery audaclty of their leader under whose magnctism they RUSHED RECKLESSLY FORWARD, ltke the French eavalry of Napoleon wlhen led by Field-Marshal Murat. Indeed, Bloine’s tac- tles closcly rescmbled those of that magnlficent ewordsman {n more respeets than one, But the over-conildence of the ¢ men was thelrruin at theond. 'They nttempted to carry thi by force, and extifbited altogether too domincering o temper. They would “lsten to nothing, ex- plaln nothing,” couclliats nobody, but rode rouglh-shiod over everything with an_imperative ond deflant afr. They treated the other factions as if they wero Deuiocrats und Confederntes, and cnemies to be defeated and put down;j ns fusurgonts and traltors to be lung up or shot on sh]vm, Instead of reengnize Ing them as fellow-Republicaus and members n(;-thc sume political faith and family, entltled to respectful consideration and decent treate nient. Blaine had dashed like a mafled knight, lance in hand, nt the Confederates in tho House of Representatives in Congress, and put them Lo flight; and his infatuated followers saw i every Republican (n the Convention, who wos not shouting and whooping for Blaine, a Con- federate agalnst whotn they charged full tilt, DETERMINED TO RIDR OIt HEW LM DOWN, But they had men to deal with who were not to be cruslied by any sueh tacties. Instead of play- Ing uff one Taction agalnst suother, captur sume, coaxing others, and keeping the opposi- tion separated, and preventing s conlition by cvery aueans possible to devise, they actunlly drove them to net together by theh” Insultlng and domineering conduct, Cirtls was hissed Dougluss wus sutibbed, and then thrown out, ot Nsseat, The Morton men were envaged by the refection of the Speneer delegation from " Ala- buma, and ewore vengeancy on Blaine’s backers, “hfil:hd it.

Don's niext move was to iold his delegation to Hartranft solid up to the declelve moment, Meanwhile the dispatches continued to pour in from all parts of the State upon the delewntes, telling therm not bo descrt the Beerctary of War, but to staml by him and Iart~ ranft.

But now TIE THOUDLE DEOAN, Three of the Penneylvanlans broke through the rule of vollng asa unit, and insisted vn having thelr votes counted for Blaine. They could not be fooled into llnndllui' by the * fu- vorite gon " of Pennsylvania any fonger. This revolt ab once produccd a row among the Penn- fylvania delegates, which epread into the Con- ventfon. McPherson, the Blaineito Chairman, declded that_the three rebel votes must be re- corded for Blalue. The Beeretary of War proinptly appenled tothe Conventlon, He ne- cused the Chalrman of violating the very rile which he _ hiineelf helped to frame In the Pennsylvania Convention. McPherson ealled ~ Don Coameron a4 dixgraca to his State, and Don hurled back the charge that he wos a traltor to the party’s rules and traditions. Col. Dick Thompron, of In- diann, sprang to the floor and administered o reproof to McPherson for his {wmxnml attock on the Chafrman of the Pennsylvania delegution, MePherson tirst denled using the obnoxious ex- pressfon, and next withdrew i3 but an angry debate extended over the Convention on thic uestion of sustalniug_the deelston of the Chair, ne sice, headed by Col. Thompson, argucd in favor ot malntaining the rules adopted by the State Conventlons In respeet to Instructions of delegates, ns the latter were selected by the Convention, which was therefore the constituent body. The other side, led by Rubert G, Iuger- soll; denounced gag luws, and insisted on the personal tiberty of the representative, and i Tight to vote ns hie plensed,and that the rules and resolutions of this Conventlon were paramount to all State {ustructions, traditlons, and orders. The Chair was finally sustalned ‘iy nyes 895, noes 863, 'The Blalue nen regarded 1t o8 A GREAT TRIUMPIL, insuring the nomination of thele favorite, and they cheered vociferously. Bat Don Cameron remarked, ** The fools have holst themselves on their own petard,” and the scquel proved it. Un- der the Pennsylvania rule the majority of the delegntion controlled the whole vote, and Camn- eron, after his utmost efforts, had fufled to se- cure'more than 23 votes, and the Blaine men lind 80 eolld and sure, “On the sixth ballot 1 declared for Blalne, but on the declsive vote which would win or lose the battle, In- stend of having B3 votes for Blaine, they Tad but barely 30, while 28 voted for Hoyes nmnfdst shouts and yells that fairly shuok tho rafters of the Conventlon building.

The first break In favor of Hayes wus made by Michigan on the sixth ballot. Up to that time Bluloe had bieen getting 8 to 6, Bristow 9 to 11, and lsyes 4. Gov. Howard, who was the leader of thoe delegation, concluded that the time had come for the Iaycs moveinent to be- gin. The whole delegation could not be con- centrated efther on Blalne ov Bristow, hut all ugreed to follow thelr venerablo and vetersn lender for Hayes, who cnst the 22 votes of hia Btate sol|d for the Buckeye. TIE OHIO MEN WENE SET WILD, and there wus great comnfotlon and extremeo nervous exeitement from that noment untit the struggle was over. ' Howard helongs the honor of leading the coalition forces.

TRUTH IS MIGNITY, nndl was rapldly prevalling (n the Illinofs dele- utlon. 5 ‘Thiere {s one canso yet to be named which con. tributed powerfully to the final defeat of Blaine, and that was the ciforts of the Clncinnatl Gazetts under Richard Smith, and the Commercial under Field-Marahal Halstead, The editors of these two journals came to the con- clugton fome” timo ago that Blaine, if numinated, coulil carry neither Olifonor Indiann at the October election, but that Bristow could L-arr{ both. They made no opposition to Hayes, but hield bim in reserve for eventuslities, From the day the delegates began to arvive until the struggle was ended, they never relaxed thele Jolnt effort for a moment.

The Ga- zetfe und Commercial pointed out the perll Blaine's nomination would bring to the Republi- can party, the hope und untmotion It would Infuse fnto the Confederates, the sorrow that would be fult by tens of thousands of the best class of Republlcans, the certaln loss of the Independent votes, the dunger of a wide. spread schism I our rauks, the disgust and de- moralization that would pervade tho party ex. cept umong the inachine-men and the ‘emo- tionnlly Insunu cluss of frul.l(l{y and thoughtleds voters.

A TERRINLE FERIL AVERTED, Looking over the entire work of the Conventlon, I am very surc that not only was a terrible peril tothe Republican party averted, but that the very wiseat nominations under all the eircum- stances were made; and the universal popular approsal with which the nominations are halled, from Maine to California, {;m\'us that the Con- ventlon cummlitted no mistake. Of all the po- litienl conventiona ever held In the United Btates, it was the largest, loudest, hardest- fonghf, most exclting, and, in the end, most reconciled to the results, and parted in the best :.;)mpcr, and most confident ‘of a glerlaus vie- Ty, 1Ylm plans of the Democrata and Confederates aro THROWN 1NTO CONPUSION. They hal caleulated confldently on Blalne's nomination, and expected to keep the Repub- Teans on the defensive durdng the campalgn, cxghlnlng and extenuating hia Fisher lotters, and other charges Intended to be hurled agalnat lilm. The Comnitteo of Investigation would have raked his whole life for ‘materlals of aceusation, to be magnitied, handbllled, and emblazoned on_ther torchlight-traneparencics.

It 1s the helicf of the coolest und longest- headed politiclans in the Conventlon just ad- ourncd, that Ifayes and Wheeler can beat Tendricks to death in the Emplre Etate, 1t would, therefore, be out of the frying-pan into the fire, to abandon Tilden, the "“reformer,’” for the fence-strnddler, Hendrickn, ~The Demo- cratic and Confederats allies find themsclves unexpectedly transfixed hf’ the horns of a dl- lemn, It I8 sugeested that the wiscat thing they cando fs t¢ withdraw both Tilden au Hendricks, and substitute Hayes and Wheeler, —thus muking {t unanimous, and giving the country repose. ¢ Let us have peace.” L e ‘*FOOLED.” Buch Is the Fato of Those Who Throw Up Good Places Lust and Emlgrate to Colle forniu, n tha Editor of The Tribune, 0AnrLAND, Cal., June b.—Callfornia hns, for n long time past, heen the Arcadis to which all aro urged to come, Thousands have come, still they keep eoming, and yet that plece of strong langiago which heads our chapter is only too often the verdlet of those who come to this Y Golden State ” eecking thelr fortuncs.

Mr. Chase set out In bis petition these facta and the clrcumstances attending the muking of the lease, and asked that the rent might be {mld and the windows newly gluzed. udge Willlams finmediately made an order requiring the Receiver to pay the back rent, but declined to compel him to put in new glase, as he sald the theatre was barely {myh)g expenges now and o small percentage on the money which hiad been put {nto it, and i the Receiver were o be required to do something he could not do, theonly result would be to throw the theatre into the handa of the School Board by forfciture, ond they would be then in a worse plight than at present, as they could not yun the theatre to nuf' advantage. t the fall when the thentrical buslness was more prospecous such an order might be made, but not at present.

Lizor, Belglum, May 20.—On a height ocen- pying a prominent position In the City of Liege, stands a most interesting bullding, the Rogal Asylum for the Deal and Dumb and the Blind, The hiouse {8 of red brick, very large, and sur- rounded by spaclous grounds, commanding n view of the whole City of Liege, together with an outlwk onto the Valley aof the Meusc. Thus the Inmates have & great advantage to begin with,—plenty of pure, fresh afr. The bullding §s very conaplcuous, and easy to find; but, were it not so, one would have no difliculty in finding it, for I must compliment the inbabi- tants of Licge on thelr UNPAILING POLITENESS TO STRANGERS. It you inquire your way of the first woman you meet, In ber neat cap and white apron, and with, perhaps, a heavy basket on her arm, she will not bo satisfled with directing you how to reach your destination, but often insists upon going the greater part of the way with you, lest you should make s mistake, In Brussels, on the contrary, you must never fngquire your way, for the Inlubitants always direct strangers wrong~it {s one of their customs,—‘*a custom ore hunored {n the hreach than in the obsery- ance," one would think, There is In generala marked difference In the character and manners of the people of the Northern, or Flemish Prov- Inces, and those of the Walloon Provinces, which are situated principaily In the south agd southeast of Belgium. The Walloons are gentler and more tractable than the Flemish, and the poorer clasees of the City of Licge are the gen- tlest In their manners, and tho farthest ad- vanced {n education, of thuke of any city of Bel- glumn; at least, so I have been Informed by per- sons who have every opportunity of kuowing, To return to = TRE ARTLUM, We were ghown into the waiting-room, where we had lefeure to adinire the white onk floor and furulture, and the portraits of thelr Majesties, the King and GQueen of Belghum, " which adorn the walla. Two gentlemen rve- celved us very kindly,—one the Dircector, who hns the general eupervision of the Asvlum, and the other the Head-Master of the schools, Mr. Vunderwillen, a Dutch gentleman, who grave Hlmself great trouble to explaln the rystem of teaching to us. To us who had never heard of the Gerinan eystem for teaching the deaf and dumb to spealt,—now generally adopted In these {natitutions throughout Europe, and which has been tried in this Asylum for six months with very falr success,—It ecemed alittle short of mifaculous. We began at the beginning, and entered the First Class for boys. Thert tho Head-Master called three little dnes to him,— children of shout 5 years of age,~and sald, making them all fix thefr eyeson his Hps, a. To our astonishment, the chlldren all repeated the vowel after him, DISTINCTLT AND AUDINLY. Of course, the volees hod a peeuliar sound; but that the dumb should epeak at all, svems nast belief, These same childrer went through he vowels, and then repeated rome of the conso- nants, a8 b, p, m, dy 4, ¢ gu (having much the same tound as % In' French), ‘Then they eald papa, sac (bsfi , e (pail), and o few other mon- osyllables. They lnd then shown off ull their aceomplishments, and were allowed to rest on thelr laurele. After repeating cach letter or word, one of the trio wrote it down on the black- bonrd, to show that they understood what they snjd. Tho great object Is to teach them to uti- derstand any one speak by watching the motion of the lipr; next, to tench” them to speak them- selves, They are made to fix thelr cyes on the teacher's mouth when he speuks, ahd then to make the enme motlon after blm, In the Second Class, the pupils are TADGHT TO SAY WONDS, a8 papa and tnamma, the nunes of |‘xclrhmnwu and slsters, their own names, and to call thelr teacher Wonaleur, The names of the abjects in the room aud in the houre are added to the list. After five ycars of capecial preparation, thiey can be taupht, by the help of schoal-hooks, in the eane way as ordinary chil- dren. I asked the Head-Master if there was not danger that the Puplls would forget how to talk when they onee left the eystemn, and lie sald: Y Noj they will be sble to” understand sny one speak by the motion of thelr lips, 08 they will be In eonstant communication with people; and if we can haye them young cumxfl: whilo the organs are ftill flexible, they can taught to speak fluently, iike auy one_ else.” Tl pupils are not encouraged totalk by aigns. The Head- Master told me he did not even know the deaf- and-dumb alphabet. The great thing with all afllfeted persons I8 to break down that senss of isolation, and encourage them to DO JUST A8 OTNERS DO} therefore, the blind ure so much moro to be pmmi for, by this method, epeceh ean be given i to the dumb, and they can be enabled to help themselves, Independently of others; but nothing can give ~ sight to the blind, Of course, this system takesn little Jonger than an an ordinary (ducations the course {s complete fn ten years,—say from b to 18 years of age. In the Second Cluse, o boy of 10 toak_up n book, and read_with toferable accnracy shout half a puge,—explaining by siens, aud sometimes by speech, the mcnulut: of what he read. The tirsi reading-lessons ure dilurtrated by colored engravings,—the brighter the bettel 1i is ditticult to teach the ehildren to piteh thel vulees properly, und to ke clearly and with- out tou much effort, At first they make great factal contortions, but I believe they lose thut afterawhile. The boys in the Becond Class, who speakt decidedly better than ""f other pupils in the Asylum among the deaf and dunb, REPBATED TUE MULTIPLICATION TABLE, and were as far advance {u nrithmetic us i.myn from 10t 12 usually are. I was astontshed, the secoml time I visited the Asylum, to find how uch better I could uiderstand the children then 1 could at fieet. 'The firet time I beard them wpeak, 1 could understand them 1t fs true; but thelr volees hind guch a pecullar sound,—hardly like a hu- man volce, ~After onu or two visits, I under- stood them much better, aud thelr volees sound- ed more natural, Whlle I was walting in the walting-room, I heard elagses golng on m the girla' class-room, and the volces sounded like those of Httle children lcarning to talk,—uncer- tain, half-formed eounds. Mr. Vanderwillen tollme that the boys had inade much morue rrugruu {n speaking, In the six months that he iud been tedching them, than the glrls had done; they certalnly were much further aid- vanced. 1le attributed it partlyto the fact that the girla had not heen so carefully taught os the boys until very lately, 1 was told thut this ayatem” had been futroduced futo’ W Deal and Dumb Asvlum tn New York, by u Germun, und perhups in one or more othier cithes of the Unlun. There s notking like gulnr awuy from liome to learn fucts sbhout one's vatlve country. THE GIRLS. 1 spent one afternwon in tho girls’ class-rooms, which ure separated from those of the boys. The system of {ustruction is, of course, the same. The Mistreas told me I could hardly believe the ’)uunncu it took to make the pupils speak nt irst. T examined one of the school-books. 77 1s the first Jetter they are taught to pronounce, 83 being one in the forming of which tholips pluy a promfnent purt, The puplls. lovked to biave or- dinary ln(u?ll ence, but Tdid not see o slngle clever faco. They are the children prindpully of poor parcuts, maiy of them peasants, Then & diffleulty preaents itsclf: the pupile, whon they have fnfshed thelr education snd Jeave the Asylum, will by able to speak and under- staud French; but the peasants, both Flemish und Walloon, speak un lf: themselyes o patots, though most of them umderstand more or less French, It {s very difficutt to make the pupils sive up their sighs, they belng thelr patural anguajze,—us didlcult as to induee English or Amerlean qjlrln to speak always In French, or fu any other but the mo:lwr-lontzum And au; one who has tricd will answer for it that th latter ta & herculesn task. Besides, the very act of speaking 18 moreor less an effort to them,—not a H:lnlul offurt, but produdng a feeling of awkwardness, us doiug auything 10 which we are unuccustomed naturally does.

I had given several nods of encoursgement to this mers cliild, for she seemed so much puzzled over her essana, and bad that pathetle Took In her eyes that you sometimes sce fn those of domb ante malat if she was stupld over her books, she had o grateful heart. 6 boya’ dormitories, refectories, and clnss- roons, are entirely scparate from thore of tho irls; they are like two bufldings, though cov- ared by one roof. could not but ad- mire tlie perfect order and clesnlincas that reigned in sl these roome, ns well as fn the slune—flnfzzwl kitchen, with its huge range in the centre of the room, A very notlceablo featura in all public institutions in Belgium Is this satno serupulous cleanlinesss and it makes ona fecl that there is much truth {n the old proverb, that “Cleanliness {anext to godliness,” Tho large, light dormitories, with’ their neat {ron hedsteads, and clean, polished floors,~—the fresh alr blowing through them by means of soveral large windows,~left on my mind an impreaston of Comfort and neatness. “Tha Matron told me that, for inore than n year, they had not had a uinfiic inmate In thelr infirmary; which speaks well for the ranftary arrangements of the Aey- lum. I visited the “play-grounds, and watched the boys at their gyninastic excreises. 1sawthe boys’ work-rooms, where they learn trades, and the irlg’ work-rooms, where'they are taught to Bew by haml and tle use of thy sewing-machine. There are not ahove TUIMTEEN BLIND INMATES OF TIE ABYLU: of whom the grenter number are girls, The same rystrin (s followed In teaching them as with ualn thie States, namely : by ralsed fi:ucrs, They are taught such tracdes as brush and basket. mgking and plano-tuning, for which thelr good ear for music and nleety of touch fit them very well. I noticed, on my visit to this Asylum, what I had often heard “mientloned before, that blind children hnd remarkably sweet volees for spenking. . The day after my visit to the Aeylum, I wna walking down the Boulevard d'Avioy,~a long graveled walk, lined ou either side With large chesthut-trees, now in full bloom, that forins the principal promenade in Liege. It wasahout to'clock In the afternoun, and the Boulevard wos thronged with people}~ladies and entlemen, laughing and =~ chatting; chil- ren, playing nbout under thelr nurses® charge, or lmportuning their parents to take then to the Theatre Guignol, or Chile drew's Theatre,—an open-air performance witly marfonettes, yery much patronized by soung people, and that rears its slmple thougli fascinat ing front under the chestnut-trees of the Houle vard. A bell aunounces the beginning of o per. formance, and attracts the attentlon of {tssmal: habitues, The bon-bon venders, in nicely-laun- dried cap and apron with white sleeves, dlsplay- e thele wares on wooden tsaye, which they carry ftrapped ncross thelr shoulders, Hero und there s black-robed pricst. passed through the throng, or a eandaled and bare-headed Cor- mellte monk, {n coarse white garments, lent his feturesque preeence to the gencral assembly, Soming up the Boulevard, on the opposite from me, T aaw ng)rumsnlnn of irls in black decese and capes with round white collars, T knew mediately by thedr uniform that_they nust be wy little frlends, the Deaf and Dumb children. As they parsed me-on o wide part of the Boulevard, near the equestrian statue of Charle- mague, one of the elder girls, whom I had cape- cluily notleed, threw me o Kies, It certatul speaks well for thielr quickness of slght that this girl ehould have picked out my face, veiled ns it Was, among the crowds of people filllng the Boulevard, and shonll have scnt me her ellent greeting ucross the throng.
