The First District Congressional Iepublican Conventlon was neld yesterday at the head- quarters, corner of Lake and Clark strects. Therc wase & large attendance of delegates and membera of the party, and the proceedinge, which extended over five hours, were marked by the customary Republican regard for order and parliamentary practice, The votlng oceupled considerable time, no less than nine formal bal- lots being taken. Very few were prepared for the flonl result. It was only on the eighth vote that the supporters of Mr. Aldrich developed thelr strength. Measrs, Hawes, Dore, and Coy made & sharp run of it for a time. PRELIMINARY. The Convention was called to order by Mr. 8. B. Bedgwlck, who briefly uxplained its object and read over the list of delegates.” Mr. James J. Wrizht, of DuPage, was elected temporary Chairman, In sceepting tho position he sald it was uonccessary for him to make ony speech, They all knew for what they had as- scwmbled, and the quickest way the business could be disposed of would bo the mnost satis- factary.

Root wus next. called for. e advanced to the platform to make a brief upecuh, but was recelved with loud crics of “Song!” This turn of affairs rather staggored him. After trying his chest and head notes, ho declded that an exnibition of his mualcal falent would by out of order; and therefore commented eitically on the song which they had just heard, 1t wiis n_noble suuF. he snfd,~u song pecullnrly adapted to Republican prinelples, The only art of this song which would apply to the {")unmcmuc arty after the election ‘would be the blue portiun,” {Laughter, “Horsel’ Eddy miso received a call, Ills response was one of his fuuny speeches, which kept the Conventfon in a roar for some time, CREDENTIALS, The Committee on Credentinls had been out sn hour and a half, aud it was proposed to tuko an adjournment until after diuncr, This met with objections, and theappearance of the Com- mitteo rendered any recess unneeessary, Mr. C, A, Storey” presented the report. Ho sald there had bLeon substitutions In two or three wards by consent. There wero two va- cunddes [n one of the towns of DuPage County, and the Committes recommended” that each ward have the right to #l] ils own yacancles, and that the County ot DuPago fill the vacan- cles {n the unrepresented town, ‘The liat of det- erutes has beon published in Tus TuinUNE.
