C., June19.—The rat!fica- Vion meeting at tho City-llall to-night wasa grand demonstration. The leading speakers at the main stand were Logan, Oglesby, Morton, Frelinghuysen, Judge Taft, and Ben Butler. The specches were for tho most part a severe arraignment of the Democratie party anda sharp definition of the irsues of the coming campaign. Al the defeated Presidential candidates, except Morton, sent letters. Judge Taft's apecch was devoted malnly to the school question and gen- eral cducatfonnl fssucs. Gen. Butler's speech reecived rather more applause than the rest on nccount of fts popu- lar hits, Ile pald his compliments to R. . Dana, rebuking him for his decloration at Cincinnati that Bristow alone could carry Massachusetts. Butler characterized this as o slander on the Bay State, which, bo sald, was good foralarge majority for any Republlean candidate. The ratiflcation meating was prob- ably the largest demonstration that las ever been hield in the District of Columbla. At the concluslon of the meeting a portion of the Peun- sylvanie Republican Association PROCEEDED TO DLAINE'S JTOUSE withaband to give him aserennde. Thils As- soclation showed its Ingenulty by one of its de- vices uponlts banners, which was: * OurState— We Hayesten to Wheeler into line.* At the conclusion of the sercnade, Blaine appeared at lis front door and addressed the enthusfastic crowd for about three minutes. Hisvolce, while {thad not the depth or strength which it pos- sessed before his illness, was still cloar and tinging enough to permento the masa, 1118 BPRECT w25 a graceful tribute from a vanquighed leader fothe victors, He knew that the Republican Convention could have chosen no better men than 1layes and Wheeler, They were both hon- est, tried, and true men, whoso victory was ns- sured. To that victory Blaino said that it would be his duty and pleasuro to contribute. To the friends who had stood by him in hisown canvass be owed adebt of gratitude which he never could repay, aud for thoss who thought best to oppose him he had no unkind thought, DISTINGUISHED ATTENDANCE, f To the Western Associated Press. ‘Wasmxaron, D.

Louis, Juno 19.—The Republicans had a mouster ratification mecting In Lucas Market space Lo-night. The space was literally packed with a crowd that could not bave numbered less than 5,000 or 6,000 Speeches were made by ex-Senators John B. Henderson and D. T, Jewett,cx-Cungressman George A.Finkelnburg, District-Attorney Dyer, Postnaster Fllley, several gentlemen from fnterfor eounties, and Mr. Clendin, of Arkansas, all which heartily Indorsed the mominces of the Cincinnati Con- vention, and predicted thelr election In No- vember, FINKELNBURO, who for a tong time past has acted with Liver- als, sald: “The Republiean party has given us a ticket which deserves the cordinl support of every Republican in the country, and n platform broad cnuu;ill for every patriot In the land to stand upon.”” 1ie heartily Indorsed them both, sud felt sure of thelr trinmph at the polls. BENDERSON said he was personally w’unmtfl] with Iayes and Wheeler, and knew them to be true and, able men, and representatives of the highest Republican prindples. Heslhouldsupport them cordially, and belfeved thelr triumph certain. COL, DYER, who was n atrong Bristow man before the nomt- natlon, and worked hard for his nomination, accepted the nominces most cordially and should labor for thele clection. e belleved they wounld be elected, and that their adminls- tratlon of the Goverument would be pure and Rble. oTHENS, Filley eald the action of the Cincinnati Con- ventfon means the unlty of the Republican par- ty, snd the unity of it means victory. it was expected that Gen.

COMMENTS OF TILE PRESS. Netwe York Erening Post (Independent Republican), The Republicans are to be congratulated on their good fortune. Having narrowly escaped n fatal error into which they were In danger of falling up to thelast hour of the Convention, they signalized that hour by an act which goes far to vindleate at once thelr political honesty and thelr partisan sagacity. Looking at Gov. Hayes from the point of view of public interest s24, trom that of party suecess, regarding hiin as o fit nan and as an avallable mat, it must be admitted that the Conventlon did very nearly the best it could do,~perhaps, fn the circum- stances, the very best. It Is truo that Hayes wns not the first chofee of those citizens who, while they hitherto had neted with the Republican party, were dissatis- fled with it administration of affairs, and who {nsiated upon its reformntion, fn respeet both to mcasures and to men, as o condition of giving it ony longer the countenance of their votes. These citizens, with a_ common enthusinsm, | alinost Ly [nstiuct turned to Secrctary Bristow as the candidate for the time. We worship the perfect, but we obey the possible, Cum&mred with what might™ have been, what is is nvalusble gain for reform. Nothing is safd ngalust Gov. Hayes. More than this negative raise 18 due him. Everything which {s said of le 18 good, It would siot be at all surprising if a nomination which 1s now sheered at fu sotoe quartors as negative and weakshould turn out to be positive aud strong. The Republican lenders will give Hayes o heartler aud more united support than che{ would huve given to any other man before the Conventfon. As to hfi strength I othier respects, we belleve that the rather inexpllcit finnncial declaration of the Clucinnatl platform will be fortificd by his nom- inatlon. Ife has represented au lounest currency In the very ficld of {ts hardest fight, in his own Btate of Oblo; and hie lins represented it suc- cessfully, Under ITayes it will be fimpossible to wmake the Republican vnss any other than ong of bhard money. The Democrats al- ready recognize this fuct, and they must pre- pare” cither to declare positively for specle payments, or take azalu the inflation position which they occupled in Ohfo under Allen last year. As to clvil-service reform, at lcost it secms probable that the election of Hayes would bring into public life u better set of men than would have followed nlmost any of his rivals. . Finally, the mnomination of Hayes and ‘Wheeler clevates and purliles the canvuss be- yond what could have been uxrectcd under any of the politiclans of the Administration, A bad and weak sclection by the Republicans would have {nduced the Demaocrats to bellove that they could succeed with any man or without any principles. Now it s inanifest that they must do their very best at Bt. Louls i thoy “would avold defeat. A VORMIDATILE COMBINATION, New York Trivune (Independent), The action of the Cincinuatl Convention yes- terday was something of a surprise, but it will command the approval of a lurge majority of Republicans, and the ticket wilk have the cordial support of the whole party. Gov. Huyes is s min of whom it 1s impossible to suy a'word of evil, Personnlly he s not ouly nbove reproacls, but sbove susplcfon. There are no dark cor- ners in his history which ueed investipation or have ever sct the tongue of scandal wagging. He has beeu a distinguished soldler, an lncor- ruptible Congressmuu, an ablo an [inpulnr Guvernor, Tie Tribune certalnly, which sup- ]mrl.cd hlin 80 strenuously when he was fighting s gullant fight for hard money agafust the AL Jen und Cnrv madwen last year, can find no fault with his nomination now. The Libernls und Independent Reformers who lent all their strength to his canviss [n 1875 will sus- toin btin fn_the ftriuls of o broader but cusfer field. The reform element of the party will feel that ts just demands havo been con- sulted fn his nomination; and those who belicve in good money will sce fn his numo a better l)h:n]gu for _speedy resumption than uny resolu- lons of & Convention could give, and an smple compensution for the vugucness of the platform. Mr, Wheeler, ke Gov. layes, 13 a sound Re- oblican froin’ conviction, and not from ‘the ove of oftice. Like (ov, Huyes, alao, hols a llmrou;imy and conspleuously honest man, to whom {nvestigation can bring no embarrass wment, but only brighter credit, His nome iy the very strongest thut could have been chosen for cfféct upon New York, The combination, indeed, is on uf the most formidable that have been suggested on elther slde, and although it cunnot be sald that the courso {3 entiroly clear while the Democracy have yet to be heard from, it seems almwost certain thut Hayes and ;\[Ihe%lcr are to b the officers inaugurated next arch. EMINENTLY POLITIO AND BAQACIOUS, Kew York Gruphic (indapendent), ‘Thoe nonipation of Gov. Hayes, of Ohlo, fs eminently politic and sagaclous, and deserves, ua it recelyes, the heartiest congrutulations, 1t eatisfies all classes, and unites the whole Re- publivan party as no other candidate could have unfted .

The Prestdential “ticket of the Hepublican party for tho campalgn ot 1870 Is an cwlvently satisfactory one, There Is now no danger that the party can in lnr way be divided. Tts candldates will unite ail the dylswrdml, clements in n phalanx which will sweep the strongest holds of the encmy. There 8 no ticket which the Demncratie purty may nominate which can make head against the Republican candldates, Ilayes represents, a8 no other man does, the young guard of the Republlcan voters, and hia name, when his nomination is announced, will ralse the grentest fecling of enthusinsm, ' The patriotie people of the country will rejolce that ne dangers of quarrels among the Repiblican Tenders, which threatened the Iife of the party, have so screncly been paased over. A STRONG NOMINATION, Albany Erentng Journal. ‘The nomination I8 a atrong one, and means a splendld victory for the Képublican party in ovember. Ucn, Hayea s an uncomprom{sing Republican, an astute and experfenced states- man, 8 soldier of the Unlon with a justrous record, and a eitlzen of ah.mlu!t-,llf stainicss character, New York, whose sccond choléo he wad, Will give him a rousing majority. A VERY POPULAR CANDIDATE. Jialtimore American, Ilayes ought to tnake a very popular candl- date, and rally not only the regulur Republican vote, but also that indefinite quantity which is known as the independent element., He hos done well In all the positions which he has fled, and lin record ia thoroughly clean. Oho and Indi- ana both hold 8tate” elections in the October preceding the Presidentlal clection, and the re- sult in these two States s always pregnant with nfluence fn November. The nominatlon of Gov, Hayes was doubtless made with an eye tuwarda sceuring them, and there can be ho nestion but that it mmakes this {esuc safe. On the whole, we think that Gov. Hayes will be taken as an aceeptable candidate by the Tepub- Jiean party, and that it will cone up to his sup- Rort with™ as complete unanimity as it did to Incoln and Grant. “ AY #E AN INVINCIBLE CANDIDATE." Phitadeiphia Times (Independent Demacratic), And yet Hayes inny be an invinelble candi- date. 1t I8 not so clear that he may not, under the peeular circumstances of the coming con- 1est, defy opposition; and, [adeed, it Is too soon to assumie that he should not be successful s agalnst his 8t, Louls competitor. There {8 the rreat, yawning chusm of Demoeratic folly yet to be pussed, ant none can promise safety from its hitherto insatlate appetite, An average degree of Democratic folly at St. Louls will tnuke him most formidable cardidate, and nothing lees than the highest measure of patriotism and wis- dutn there ean_make even a hopeful contest agafust him, The pv.-nBlu will not defeat Hayes x‘nurcly to give the Democerncy a uational vie- ory. 4 THE DANNER OF MEFORM, Loutsville Commercial, The Convention wns so markedly in “favor of reform that there was no clement {n it that dared to inake any ai}zun or direct fssue with the reform sentiment. Beeause {6 was dominated by the reform spirit, and hecause §t wos repre- sentative in compushlun and tone, the support of all clementa of the party will be given to its nominces, und the Republican party will enter into this Presidentlal campaign more thorough- ly united than they have been sinee 1868, There will be no independent movement. The Lib- crals aud Independent Republicans will all rally under the hunner of Ilayes and Wheeler, the banner of reform, hard money, freo rehools, and equl rights; and the Republican party will march united to overwhelming victory in No- vember. VICTORY A8SURED. Protidence (R, 1) Journal. ‘With such o man upon the Ciucinnat! plat- form, the victory of the Republican party fn the comnlng electlon 18 nssurcd. He is the just and proper complemeut of the principles announced by the Conventlon.

T A GOOD TICKRT. Hartford (Conn,) Courant, The Republicans enter ‘the cauvass with n good ticket and n good platform, and with de- termination to win'n success which will bring the reforins which the country demands, The record of the Democratic party proves that it Is {dle to look for reform or prosperity in the sue- cess of o party which 18 controlled by its Woods, and Hills, arid Tuckers, and whidh, while per- slstently nasnfl!np‘i‘thc Republican purty, hos not the courage nor the virtuo to attack {ts own ras- 5. THR BEST CENTENNIAL TICKET, Uilca (N ¥.) Herald, On the whole, the Cincinnatl Convention has given to the Republlean party the beat Centen- nlal ticket it was In its power to seleet. It represents 1o antagonisms, except inflexible an- tagontsm to Democracy. Rutherford B, Hnyes, of Oblo, and Witllam A, Wheeler, of New York, 18 n ticket apainst which no Republican of falr, unbiased mind can rafse a protest, A MAN OF THE I'EOPLE. Pittsburg Commercial, Hayes Is emplmumfl{ & *‘man of the people,” & strong mun morally, futellectually, and_phys- feally, ~Wherever duty has called” him he has never fatled in open, earnest, and pronounced support of the cuuse of human frecdom, He bas no extra welghts topcarry, Fle will not be Landicapped In the race.

In Gov. Tayes und Mr. Wheoler the party bas able, trled, and unobjectionable standard-bear- crs, thoroughly identified with Republicanism in its best sense, sound upon the live ssues of the duy, and fulrly representutive of the Intelli- gent convictions and siucere purposes of the or- ganizatlon, Thelr records, Yuh e and private, will offer no vulnerable polut to the scandal- mongers. They ure both thoroughly committed by their convictions, their declarations, and thelr acts to currency reform and to administrative reform, and upon the lm!wrtmn. question of the meintenance of free institutions and of the po- litieal equality of all citizens before the law their ufi)lulons are’ true to the Republican record. They stand squarelyalso upon a platform which is ddmirable in all its cssentiul features, 4 TICKET TO BN PROUD OF. Ruffala Commiercial Adrevilser, 1t {8 a ticket of whichany party feel proud, It unites and fspires with renewed zeal every element In the party. No man who ever voted the Republican ticket need hesitato to m‘\)pon Hayes und Wheeler, Liberals, Independents, and those who have always been steadfast He- publicans, clasp hands mow,can fight an agrgrressive campalizn, and with a conyiction that victory awaits them, The Centennial compalgn will ever be u memorablo one, and we feel cer- taln that not the least memorable feature will be the Imwense majority that the Republicans of the country will securs for Haoyes and Wheeler. NOMINATED ON CONVICTION, dthcaukea Wiseonain, ‘The peoplo love Gov. Hayes, aud they admire Bim beeause he 1s not and never was a poll- ticlan, Of all the candidates before the Cone vention, he was the least tinctured with the malurious atmosphere of Washington, Ielins made no promlses ke the othier candidates, und therefore he has none to break, He hud no canp-followers at Cincinnatl, Ile had no bands of retainers to urge un sud support his nomi- nation.

The Baltlmore & Ohfo and the Chieago & Erie Rallroads made a new move yesterday by reducing the rates from this city to Syracuse and Utlea to $10, which Is n reduction of about 4. This blow {s partlcularly directed against Vanderblit, astheabove pointsarctwoof thebest local ones on the New York Central. Just as the rate to Cleveland has beon reduced to force the Michizan Soutbern to reduce the rate to Tolede, this reduction was made to foree the saine road to lower the Tares to Buffalo and to all the local points on the New York Central. Bo far, however, these attacks have been un- nvulllnt;, and Vanderbilt has not yet made a reduction to Toledo, though he has fallowed that made to Cleveland., The officers of the Michigan Southern and Michigan Central now declare that they will take no notice of the reductions to Syracuse and Utica at all, but leave thelr ratcs intact. If the Baltimore & Ohlo, the Erfe, and the Pennsylvania Rallroade, however, keep on making réductions to local points on Vanderbilt's rouds, ne will be com- pelled to come down whether he wants to or vot. The three Jatter roads, which lead dfrect], to the Centennisl grounds nt Philadelphis, feel very bitter towarda Vanderbllt for forclz down the through rates to the East to the present low %ures. vhen the first reduction of §16 to New ork was mado they liked it well enough, be- cuuse the rute was about the same s that charged for the Centenulal tickets, and it matterea little to them whether they suld the regular or Centennlal tickets, But when Vanderbilt deereed thut the rate from Chicago to New York should be but $18, he ve these liues a stunning Llow, and I.oudmx thelr pockets. The profits at the present rates are not large, and the object of the Phitadel- phis liues 8 to force Vanderbilt to agree to s {ucrease fu the through fares to the East, for they caleulate that the samu number of people will go und sce the Centennlal festivities at the Eastern cities at higher rates as at the present low ones, There s, however, but little prospect of au iimmediate increase of passenger rates, as Vanderblit {s determined to carry his Eulul if it takes hitn oll suininer, and it wiil undoubtedly take him that lovg, AN IMPORTANT SUIT.

Foster bad two trials, and was convicted on hoth. Great efforts had been made to obtaln a com- mutation of the sentence, tut Gov. Hardin de- clined to Interfere. HISTORY OF TNE CRIME. Willlam Foster was the murderer of an un- known man. The deed was cominitted nearly a year ago, and no clew has aince been found that c‘l“:]ld possibly lead to the {dentification of hls victim, On the evening of Aug, 28, Inst year, a col- ored man called at a utogre in Warner doum.y, and asked for n drink of water, which wis readily given him by Miss Edwards. Shortly safterwards, before tlie colored man left, William Foster also came n on the tramp, with no per- sonal effects about him save a pun and a wallet; and, after partaking of a cooling draught of lce- water, the two Wleparted, and, their journey lyl(n)g In the same direction, they walked to- cther, Nothing mare was scen or heard of the col- ored man until he was found dead [n the_road, his bead half Llown off, and life cxtinet. Inone hand was a chew of tobaceo, and in the other o half-eaten apple,—plainly showing that death must have been almost, if not quite, instan- taneqts, A furmer living near the spot heard the emck of the gun, anl” went to sce what it meant, when he found n number of people—residents of the loenlity—~gathered around the dead body of acolored man whose slayer no one knew. Foster had been scen with this man, and, with: out any definite evidence, SUSPICION YOINTED TO MIM, and he was followed, captured, and locked-up on the serfous charge of inurder. When arrest- ed, he had in hls possession the wateh of the dead negro; also, a pair of his pantaloons, and a few other trivial artlcles, which were afterwards {dentified as belonging to the dead man. Here the evldence for the prosceutiou rested. No ear listened to the struggles of the murder- ed man, und no human eye looked upon his denth sgony. But the evldence poluted to ‘Willlam Foster as the man who did the deed. Foster wan tried and convicted of the critne before Judge Edwards, in Warren County; but his lawyers, with 8 pertinocity that could not be crushed, FOUGHT DESPERATELY, and took the case to the Courtof Appealsons writ of error, That Court supported the con- vietion, and {ndorsed the procedure of the War- rea County Court. An sppeal was then taken ta the Supreme Court. That body, after hearing the evidence, reversed the ‘declslon of the Court below on purely techui- cal grounds, and ordered a new trial to be given the prisoncr in Warren County; which took place, and resulted in another convictlon. Af- ter this, application was made to the Court of Appeals for a stay of execution, which that Court refused to grant, Toster has led a reckless life, and is known to have been A DESPERADO of the worst type. After his arrest he con- fessed to Mr. Morsey, the Prosceuting Attor- ney, that he had killed the * nigeer,’—had shot him fn_the back of his hend,—his only object being plunder, He also made, in subatance, the same confesslon to Mr. Johu A. Howard. This, with the circumstance of the two men being seen together, the deand body of the megro belng found upon theé road that they traveled together, and Foster having in his possession propert; the negro was known to have passed, possessed conclusively to him as the murderer.
