ILLINOIS DEMOCRACY. SOTD. THE GREENBACKENS GET THE CONCERN VERY CHEAF. Bpecial Dispatch to The Tribune. SrrinarieLp, Ik, July 27.—Temporary Presi- dent Jlm Allen, tho illustrious Egyptian Cop- perhead whose record as an active sympathizer with those who sought to destroy the Unlon cannot be forgotten, sounded the key-note in his speech on taking the chair. He demanded that the country be dellvered oyer to the Demo- crats, that they might save it; and tho vast throng of ofllce-seckers, Lungering for the spoils, applauded. Never were mcn readier than they to save the country by capturing the oflices. When he got off his high-sounding phrases about reform, they applauded for ad- mfration for the adroitness with which ha fabri- cated camnpaign buncombe. That was all, and & mero glance at the nssembled wheel-horacs, and war-horses, and veteran wire-pullers, controll- ing the Conventlon sufficed to show preclsely what measure of sincerity there was in theap- plause that {ollowed Allen's hifalutin demands for reform. . . WANTTHING TO WIN," was thé real watchword of the crowd. It couldn't but be detected at every step In the proceedings. The Incyltable wheel-horse man- agement was perceptiblo immediately after the permancnt organization had been effected in the defeat of Lyman Trumbull in Cominittee for Elector-at-Large, and the nomination in his stead of W, F. Coolbaugh, who lLad no record a8 a Republican to offend the wheel-horse Cop- perheads. There was an ebulition of the same old Copperhead spirit when Tom Hoyue, In the midst of this extraordinary fiinging out of sky- rockets, as lic himself characterized it, with bit- ter satire sald the clalm of the Republican par- ty to public confidenco, as sct forth in the plat- form, was that, * Whereas, there had been four million slaves fn this country; and whercas, the Republican party medo a war to flecce them, and no Democrat took part, the Republican party ought to be continued in power.” That bit of satire of Tom’s took. It was the old cryof. # Abolition war,” ‘That was declared o fallure at Chicago in 1804, whenthe Democracy de- manded a surrender.to the Rebellion, 1T BNTOUSED THB WURRL-TIORSES; s0 did his declaratifon ogainst whoredom with strange gods as ho put 1t and for a straight- out ticket. When Hoyne closed his pyroteeh- nic perforinance could a vote have been taken thero would have been an overwhelming ma- Jorlty in fuvor of & straight-out ticket, Joln Morrison, of Monroe, who followed, however, put a damper on the stralght-outs when he re- minded the Convention that the question was whether they bod scnso enough to utllize thelr advantages and to extend the right hand of fel- lowship to all opponents of the Republican party. The lssuo between the straizht-outs and the coalltionists waa sharply made, TAX NOMINATIONS, When the nominations came to be male, Breckenridge, of Wil led off fn n speech nominating Bteward, the Decatur candidate. for Governor. ife claimed for the Indepondents that they would cast 75,000 votes for Bteward; that Bteward waa a Democrat and always had Leen; and ho wns for Tilden and Hendricks. One of the speakers.who scconded the nomina- tion of Steward aald the only opposition to him was personal, and thero conld be no prospects of success without the 75,000 Independent votes, Btate 8cnator Lee, of Peorla, on the other hand, declared for no more coalition and no more de- fenelve campaigus, and denounced the Indepen. dent-Greenback party as a mero shell rcpruncu‘ ing nothing. Tho responses to the cfulgent puffery of their favorite by the Steward orators, however, disclosed that Steward's strength in the Convention, despite tho fact that the leaders ,were dead-sct against lum, was GREATEL THAN TUAT OF ANY CANDIDATH placed in nomination. When the informal bal- Tot wua taken this beesme apparcnt, 'Tho efforts of Perry Smith, Benator Robinson, Corning Judd, Tom Hoyne, aud the rest fu the Cook County delogation, fullod to secure the adoption of the unit rule, and, fustead of 114 votes solid for Farnaworth, It was divided in the usual demoralized fashlon between all the can- didates, giving 42 for Bteward only, 54for ¥arns- worth, 7 for Glenn, ond 9 for Brown, The re- sult, 201 for Stewart and coalition to 154 for Farnsworth, 100 for Brown, and 133 for Glenn, BTEWARD NOMINATED, The inevitable result followed, The object of the fnformal ballot was eimply to (ndicate how the thing was golng. It showed, and forth- with the unterriticd hastencd to flock to the winaing slde, and, as a nntter of course, Lo was nominated on the frst formal ballot, ‘Thus ended the programme of the lead- ¢rs to for onve have the great unter- rified . of DNlinols consistent. The Cook Courfty delegation, despite Tom Hoyna's appeal to tho delegates to be virtuous, and re- slst the laccivigus blandlshients of the Inde- pendent scarlet female, fell, snd cast only 40 for Farnsworth, to 63 for Btoward, 6 for Gleun, and 6 for Brown, subsequently making the whole unanimous; and thus old John Forsyth, who was malnly iustrumental in aefeating the Farns- worth movement fu the Cook Coundy delega- tion, scored one on his account with Perry L. 8mith and his crowd. That done, 4 FRHVROT BEVULSION YOLLOWZD, The 8imon-Pure, who had ylelded to the seduc- tions of the Independents,and thus arrayed themstlyes sgalust thé St Louls platform, Horses, /] didn’t take kindly to_the nomination of Plck- rell, the Deeatur candidate for Lieutenant-Gov- ernar, for that position on the Democratic tick- of. Itwas too much crow st one meal, and when somsbody moved that B, M. 8mith be per- mitted to orate at the Conventlon, the motion was promptly voted down, and Smith's elo- quence was fncontinently bottled up. Glenn'’s nomination, which wes made unanimous on ‘the firat ballot, served to somewhat mollify theout- raged Democrata; buta proposition inade fin- mediately after (lenn’s nomioation for the ac- ceptanee’ of the remalnder of the De- catur ticket was licoted down. In. deed, remssured by the defeat of one of the Decatur candidates, Plekrell, for Licutenant-Governor. John I Oberly raee, wheu the nominations for Secretary of State were called, and sald: ¢ We have nominated a Lineral Democrat for Governor, and & Demo- cratic reformer for Lieutenant-Governor. Now let us have s Democrat;” and ha nominated Thorntan, of Falton. But the Deeatur Inde. codents demauded more. J. C. Camphell, of 4 Balle, arnse and urged that, having swallow- od the hiead of the Deeatur ticket, they MIGHT AS WELL TAKR IN TRZ NODY ALSO, and he nominated Hooten, the Deeatur candl- .date for Sccrotary of Btate, and after a apirited Dallotiog, In which Thornton ran far ahead, Thoraton, the first straight Democrat on the ticket, was unanimously nominated. AUDITOR, Then nominations for Auditor of State hein in order, Tom Iioync rose and sald le didn' know that he was hate to ratify the nomigations of any othier convention. e would trust Jolin Hise for anything, buy Iisc bad sccepted a nomination on a platform so hostile to the principles of the Demucratie put}/ lie could not aud would not vote for bim. Io nominated Jobn Comiskey, The Deeatur ,Greenback Democrats again attgupted to forcs Hisc through with” a hurrah. Tomn Merritt, of Marion, who 1s adevoted personal friend of ‘| Hise’s, moved the nomloation of the latter by acclamation, and on that demanded the previous ucstion, A tremendous hubbub followed n the Cook County delegation. Frank Agnew sprang to his feet, and began shouting and ges- ticulating fariously, while youni Doollttle, Joun Forsyth, J. J. Kearney, J. C. Richberg, and other Cook County delegates wero also on end shouting and gesticulating flercely, while yells of “sit down,' *order,” drowned all that the soveral orators were trylng to suy. The Chalr refused to hear anybody until_everybody was scated and order irestored. That™ dono Frank Agnew got the flobr and BULLENLY WITHIDREW COMISKET'S NAMK on the ground that the Conventlon had plmnl’y‘ made up its mind not to recognize the Iris| element, which Comisicey represented. J.d. hcnrncf followed in an earnest nppeal for some recognltion of the Irish Democracy, which ‘was relied upon to du the hard fighting, but it was all in vain. The Decatur greenbackers had had a taste of blood and went for Comisley,and took his mflp, nominating Jolin Hise, the candldate on the tion. _As to the acclamation business, however, alter 8teward’s nomination the matter of mak- g nominations by acclamation WAS DONE IX A PECULIAR MANNER. The several candidates would be put fa nomination. Then some one would move to ‘make the nomination of one of the candidates unanimous. When the question would be taken a atorm of ayes and nays would be heard, and the Chulr would deciare the nomince business. The nominees, defeated —without form, with thelr heads off, would squirin a few moments and then submit with anything but s good grace.

There was a s)ight breeze ralsed over the mi- nority report of tiie Committee un Resolutions, whertin that eminent toller, Milea Kehoe, an: nils fellow-tollers of the Cook County delega- tlon, presented thelr solemn protest ngalnst having the bread taken out of their mouths by couvict Jabor. Of course, Milos and lis fellow- tolices will be starved to death if the few hun- dred convicts at Joliet employed at several dif- ferent trados are not kept in absolute {dlencas, The arrant demui‘n ism of the minority resolu- tion wus too much for the majority of the Com- mittec, and, on thelr instriction, 8. 8. Marslall, the Chairman, moved tho previous question, thus cutting oft the minorit; teport even before {t had been presented; but Kehoe and 8, Corn- fng Judd—who, to the surpriso of his frien lent himsclf to the business—made such a i P“l that they finally got the minority report b ore the Conventlon, and sccured the addition of Kehoc's convict-labor plank to the platform as reported by the majority of the Couwmittee, RX-GOV. PALMER, before the assemblage of the Convention, was out of the ruce, it having beou recalled that, as Governor, he approved ‘tho Liquoslaw passed during his term.
