THE CONVENTION. The Day After tho Battle at Cincinnatd. A Calm Review of the Great Contest. The Part Played by the Pennsyl= vanians. IIow Blaine Was Defeated and 1ayes Nominateds All Re pubflcnns Can Support the Ticket. [From The Sunday Tridune,] CivciwsaTy, June 17.—It 1 as impossible for any ono man Lo sce or comprehend nll that 18 oceurring before his eyes{na great convention Hke that of yesterday s for one soldier to sce or compreliend all that {8 happening on a great battle-field Letween contending armics. The Convention proper consisted of nearly 800 dele- pates and 800 alternates, but there was a body of as many more and fully as sharp and Influ- ential men as that which coinposed the Conven- tion itselt. Thus there were more than ‘3,000 men nctively porticipating in the great strugglo of five torrld days® duration, and this whole mass of members, alternates, and irregulnrs were {n constant telegraphie communieation with the various candidates, and thefr leadlng friends at home. Dispatches were going and comlug over the wires LIKE PLIGHTS OF ATIROWS, by hundreds and thousands per liour. The last two days and nights of the Convention members were recelving telegrams from all parts of tho Unlon urging them to stand fast Dy Blalne, or Morton, or Conkling, or Ifartranft, or besceching them to chango to Bristow or Blaine. A continual stream of dispatclics were sent to Blalne's hendquarters in Washington, nnd another stream fssucd therefrom to his friends in tho Conventlon, encouraging and instructing them liow to act. The wires and resources of both telegraph companies were taxed to thelr utmost capacity, day and night, to accommodato the pollticians and tho press, and fuform the people. The Jong, desperate battle was fought out, by means of the wonderful electrie ngeney, IN PULL VIEW OF THE WUOLE AMERICAN NATION, Those who were hundreds snd thousands of mlles away could sce the mighty contest ns {t slowly but surcly progressed from the careful preparation to tho grand melce and tnal charge and rout of the beaten side, as clearly aud vividly as if they had been delegates themselves; and they were made to understand the changing pluses of the fight, the ups and dowus, the intrigucs and schentes, and plots and counterplots, the growing strength and weakness of the respective factions, infinitely clearer from reading TUB TELEGRAPHIO REFORTS than if they hud been apectators in the galleries or in reserved scats, or had clbowed their way In the thronga that swamped the corridors or that sweltered {n the numerous headquarters of 8tate delegations in search of news. Thosc who remalned at home and depended on the wires and newspapers were far wiser sud more comfortable than the 50,000 men who rushed hero In pursuit of knowledge aud early Infor- mation, and to witness the struggle, Blaine had altogether the mosi. powerful and compact orgranization of any of the candldates. Tis supporters, whilo considersbly less than n majority of the Conventlon, far outuumbered those of any other candldate. They were fin- bued with tho flery wudaclty of their lender, under whose mogietism they RUSHED RECKLESSLY FORWARD, ke the Freneh eavalry of Napoleon when led by Fleld-Marshal Murat, Indeed, Blafne's tac- t?u closely resembled those of that mugnificent ewordeman fn more respects than one. But the over-contidence of the Blalue men was theirruin ot theond. They attempted to carry things by foree, and exhibited altogether too domineering o temper. They would “listen to nothing, ex- plain nothing.” conclliate nobody, but rode rough-shod over everything with an Imperative and deflant afr. They treated the other factions 08 if they wero Deniocrats snd Confederates, sud cnemies to Lo defeated and put downj a8 insurgents and traltors to "bo hung up or shot on sight, Instend of recognize Ing them ag fellow-Republicaus and members of the sams politienl faith and family, entitled to respectful consideration und decent treat- ment, Blaine ad doshed like a mailed knight, Janee in hand, at the Confedorates in tho House of Representatives in Congrees, and put them Lo ight 3 and his infatuated Tollowers saw in every Republican in the Convention, who was not shouthnyg aud whooping for Blafne, a Con- federate agalust whom they charged full th, DETERMINED TO RIDE OR IEW LIM DOWN, But they had men to deal with who were not to be cruahed by any such tacties, Instead of play- Ing off one Taction sgalnst anvther, capturing suine, coaxing others, and keeplug the opposl- tlon separatéd, and preventing n coalition by every means possible to devise, they actually drove them to net together by thelr sulting and domineering conduet, Cirtls was hisseds Dougluss was siubbed, mid then thrown out o lis seat. ‘The Morton men were enraged by the refection of the Bpencer delegation from” Ala- bmm:1 and swore vengenncs on Bluine's backers, who did {t. Bristow's friends were fusulted and sucered ot as the *Ouly honest inen,” beeausy they und thelr Jeaders Were ul»pusud to_stealing the” revenuo and blackumiling the distlllers, They hooted and jecred the demand for a Civi- Bervice reform cundidate, and laughed ot the lenot Governmentul purlllmLqu us 4 good Joke. They regarded thelr fellow-rlugsters who were urging Conkling for President, with illconeealed auger and Impativiee, because they refused to couleses forees und support Blalne. THE PIRST PALPADLE BLUNDER he Blalug men committed when the Conventlon met on Thursday was fu waking McPher- ton, of Penusylvauls, President” of the Convention; for this wus throwing down the gage of battle to Don Cameron und his clags.

Meanwhile the dispatches cantinued to pour in from all parts of the State upoti the delegates, telling thewm not todesert the Seerctary of War, hut to stand by i and Hart~ ranft. Don made arrangements to borrow some vutes from Morton, Conkling, aud Bristow, chiefl; the former, to be cast for Hartrauft, to keep his fellows In hope and prevent the Blattie menfrom demanding the withdrawal of thelr “favorite aon." “Flina, on the sccond hallot, Jones loaned Tour votes from Nevadu, and Col.

This revolt at once produced u row among the Penn- sylvinin delegates, which apread Into the Con- vention. MePherson, the Blalneite Chalrman, deefited that_the thiree rebel votes must be re- corded for Blalne. The Scerctary of War promptly appealed tothe Convention, IHe ac- cured the Chofrmun of violating the very rule which e himsell helped 1o frame In the = Penusylvania Conventlon, McPherson enlled Don - Cameron a dirgrace to his Btate, and Don hurled Lnck the charge that he was a traftor to the party’s rules and “traditions, Col. Dick Thompaon, of In- disnn, sprang. to the floor and administered n reproof to McI’herson for his personal attack on the Chafrman of thie Pennsylvania delegation. MePherson first denied using the obnoxious ex- pressfon, and next withdrew (L3 but an augry debate extended over the Convention on the ucstion of sustaining the decisfon of the Chair. ne sy, headed by Col, Thompson, nrtf'uml in favor ur maintalning the rules adopted by the 8tate Conventions In respeet to Inatructions of delegates, ns the latter were selected by the Conveution, which was therefore the constituent Lody.

But Don Cameron remarked, **The fools have holst themselyes on thelr own petard,” andthe sequel provedit, Un- der the Penneylvanit rule the majority of the delegation controlled the whole vote, und Cam- cron, after his utmost cfforts, had fadled to se- cure'more than 28 votew, and the Blalne men hind 50 soliid and sure. On the sixth ballot 14 declared for Blaine, but on the decizive vote which would win or lose the battle, fn- stend of huving 58 votes for Blalne, they had but barely 30, while 28 voted for Ilnyes nmidst shouts and yells that falrly shook the mfters of the Convention building.

Bofora the break commenced, Binine would probably have heen beaten in the clghth bailet, ns Huyes seemed to have the “bulge” on him, but it might not have heen Dy as much gs five votea. Beveral of the carpet- bug delegations were compused of very slippery i;cuucmcu. and, s balanes of power onee [n their innds, there 18 no telling what they might not have done with it, or what it might have cost to induce them to part with it; but” Cameron was {«urlully avenged upon his enemics. Ho came o NOMINATE CONKLING ORt DEPEAT BLAINE, Falling in the former, he achleved the latter, and wus hul)py. Ite punished MePherson to his heart’s content, and quelled the rebellion in his ranks, 1Ic went home master of the sltuation, and high chief of all the Keystone clans, The first break in favor of Hayes was mado by Michlgan on the sixth ballot. Up to that thine Blalne had been getting 8 to 0, Bristow 9 to 11, and Hayes 4, Gov. Iloward, who was the leader of the delegation, concluded that the time had come for the ITayes movement to be- gin, Tho whole delegation conld not be con- centrated cither on Blalue or Bristuw, but all ngreed to follow thelr venerable and veterun lender for Hayes, who cast the 22 votes of his State sol{d for tho Buckeye. THE OH10 MEN WEILE BET WILD, and there was great comniotion and extremo nervous excltenient from that moment until the struggle was over, To Howard belongs the Tonor u(ficndlng the coalitfon forces, When the Illinols delegation reached Clnefn- nat§ Just Sunday and Montay, they were set down as 40 for NBlalne and two™ doubtful, The ringmasters—Logan, Munn, and Root— commenced the work of whlpplmilj n thore two_ recusant delegates,— Sldney Smith aud Judpge Duker,—~lut tho harder the lnsh was applied’ the mory they were not whipped in. - Thumb-screws Ind no inore fullnenee than whips.

Bristow, the man who was to have 1o votes from Dlinols, got five, ayes three, and Washburne two. Thus, on tho sixth bullot, instead of Bluine getting forty-two, us the mus chine-ringsters declared e would have, ten votes were recorded against him, Al honor to thess ten fudependent men, who represented o mnjority of the Republican party of 1iinols, for the caniiidntes they supported, Bldncy Biith is entitled to respect and pgratitude for the he- rofe firmness ho exhibltad In hia struggle with the machine-fellows, led by Logun. He was galulng ground every hour, und it the Dabluting had continued unother day he and Judge Baker, who s a most gallant soul, would Dave had a full half of the delegation to back them up.

THE COURTS. The Recelver of the Chieago & Paclfic Rallrond Authorized to Borrow 8175,000. An Order Issued for the Adelphi Re- ceiver to Pay All Back Rent. Miscellancous Matters from the Halls of Justice, An application was made 8aturday morning to Judge Blodgett by Mr. J. M. Whitman, Ke- celver of the Chicago & Pacific Raflroad Compne ny, for leave 1o borrow $175,000 to put the rond in proper repalr, pay back taxes, and buty some cars and locomotives to properly equipit. The petition {n the case was filed Thursdey and an abstract of it appeared st the time in Tur Tninuxe. After reading it the Recelver stated that nt least $175,000 wounld be necessary, as the rond was badly In need of moro cars, A largo number of bondholders wera present hv thefr attorneys, hut no objection wos made to tho proposed loan, and Judge Blodgett allowed the Recelver to make it, saying that o rallrond must be allowed to incur such labilities 08 were necessary to keep it running. That lind been repeatedly decided by the courts, The courts had aright to create a prior len even over that of the hondholders, and in the present case money was evidently imperatively de- manded. If the rond could not be aliowed to borrow, It wonld not be able to gerve the public at all, and the security of the bondholders would be immediately depreclated.

Royal Asylum for Deaf, Dumb, and Blind. How DMute Children Are Taught to Talk. Wonderful Buccess of the German Bystem of Instruction. * 8pectal Correspondence of The Tribune, Lizox, Belgium, May 20.—-On a height oceu- pying o prominent position in the City of Licge, etands a most Interesting hullding, the Royal Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb aud the Blind. The liouse is of red brick, very large, and sur- rounded by epacious grounds, commanding n view of the whole City of Liege, together with an outlook onto the Valley of the Meuee. Thus the inmates have s grest advantage to Legin with,~plenty of pure, fresh alr, The bullding i very conspleuous, and easy to find; but, were it not s, one would have no diflculty fu finding It, for I must complitnent the inbab)- tants of Licge on thefr UNFAILING VOLITENESS TO STRANGERS, If you inquire your way of the flrst woman you meet, In her neat eap and white apron, and with, perhaps, o licavy basket on her arm, she will not bo ratisfled with directing you how to reach your destination, but often Insists upon going the greater part of the way with you, lust you ehould make s mistake. In Bruesels, on the contrary, you must never inquire your way, for the inhabitants always direct strangers wrong—it {s one of thelr customs,~—** o customn more honored i the breach than in the obsers- ance,” one would think. There {8 In gencral a marked difference In the charucter and manners of the people of the Northern, or Flemish Proy- inces, nnd those of the Walloon Provinces, which sro situated principally in the south ngd anutheast of Belgium. The Walloons are gentier aud more tractable than the Flemish, and the poorer classes of the City of Licge are the gen- tlest In thelr manners, and the farthest ad- vanced In education, of those of any city of Bel- ghum; at least, go I have been informed by per- sons who have every opportunity of knowing. To return to o THE ASTLUM, We were shown into the waiting-room, where we hud lefsitre to admire the white onk floor and furniture, and the portraits of thelr Majesties, the King and ducen of Belglum, ~ which adorn tho walls, Two gentlemen re- ceived us very kindly,—oue the Director, who lias the general gupervision of the Asvlum, and the other the Head-Master of the schools, Mr. Vanderwillen, a Duteh gentleman, who gave Timself great trouble to expialn the system of teaching to ue. To us who had never heard of the Gerinan evatem for teaching the deaf and dumb to rpeale,—uow gencrally adopted {n these {netitutions thronghout Europe, and which has been trivd in this Asylum for six months with very falr suceess—it ecemed allttle short of miraculons, We began at the beglnning, aud entered the ¥Firet Class for boys. There the Ilend-Master called three Hetle ones to him,— chfidren of about 5 years of nge,—and sald, making them all fix their eyes on his lips, a. To our oitonishment, the chlldren all repeated the vowel after him, DISTINCTLY AXD AUDIDLY. Of course, the volces had a peeulinr sound; but that the dumb chould epeak atall, scems nst belief. Theee same children went through e vowels, and thenrepeated some of the touro- nants, as b,p, my dy b, e gu (having much the eame eound ‘8s % In' Frendh). Then they said pepa, sac (bn%). #eau (pail), and a few other mon- osyllables. Tihey had then shown off ull thelr accomplishmentx, aud were allowed to rest on thelr lnurcly, After repeating cach letter or word, oue of the trio wrote it down on the bluck- bonrd, to shos that they understood what they eaid. The great objeet {5 to teach them to un- derstand any one gpeak by watching the motlon of the lipe: next, to teach” them to spenk them- £elv ‘They are i to fix teacher's mouth when Lie ape make the gnme motion after liln, In the 8econd Class, the puplls are TAUGIT TO SAT WORDS, 08 papa and mamma, the names of thetrbrothers and sisters, thelr own names, and to call their teacher Yonsleur. The names of the objects in the room and in the bouse are sdded to the list. After five yeurs of especial preparation, they can be taujzht, by the help of sehool-hooks, n'the same way ag ondinary chil- dren, Iasked the Head-Master {f there was not danger that the }vuplls would forget how tu tatk when they once Jeft the eystem, nnd he sald: “Nujy mcf will be able t0” understand uny une epeak by the motion of thelr lps, aa they will L in constant communication with pcus:h‘; and #f we can have them yvounge enough while the organa are £til) flexible, they can be taught to speak fluently, Hke auy ono”else,” The pupils are not cncoumfm\ to'talk by sigus. The Heud- Master tald me hie did not even know the deaf- and-dumb alphabet. The great thing with wll afflietal perrons Is to break down that gense of isoletion, and encourage them to 1O JUST A8 OTHERS DO} therefore, the blind are so much more to be pitied, for, by 1his method, specch ean be gven clr eye on the , aid then to to the dumb, nmd they ean be ensbled to help themaclves, CIndepend of others; but nothing can give slght fo the 'blind. Of course, thie system takes little longer than an an ordivary cducation the course Is complete in ten yenrs, from 5 t0 15 years of uge. In the Second Class, o boy of 10 took _up a book, and read with tolerble aceurney nhout half o page,—explaining by siens, aud sometiuies by gpecch, the meaning of what he rend. The firat rending-lessons ure illustrated by colored engravings,—the brighter the better, It [s ditlleult to tench the children to piteh thelr vofces properly, und to speak clearly aml withe out too much effort. At first they inako great faclal contortionk, but I believe they lose that afterawhile, The Loys in the Bocond Class, who speuk decldedly”better than nn{ other puplls in the Asylum among the deaf and dumb, REPBATED THE MULTIPLICATION TABLE, and were us far sdyanco fn arithmetic o Doys from 10 to 12 usually wre. 1 wis ostonfshed, the gecond thne 1 visited the Asylum, to nd how much better I could understand the ehildren thun I could at first, The fhret time § beard thein speak, 1 could understand theny, 1t §s true; but thelr volees had such a pm-ullm— sound,~hardly like a hu- man volce. After ona or two visits, 1 under- stood them nel better, aud their volecs sound- ed more uatural. 'While I was waiting in the waiting-room, I heard cla sl on e the girl' class-room, and the volees sounded ke thoss of little children lcarning to talky—uncer- tuiy, balf-formed eounds, Mr. Vouderwillen told me thut the boys lind made much more })rugr(-u In speaking, in the six months that he d been tedebing them, than the girls had doune; they certainly wero much further al- vunced, e attributed {t partlyto the facs that the girls had not been o carclully taught oy the “boys unthl very lately. I was told that this system” had been {ntroduced luto n Deal and Dumb Asylu in Now York, by o German, and perbups i one or more other dties of the Unlon. — There §a nothing like going away from Lome to learn facts ahout one's native country.
