HARRISBORG, May 16.—Alter a good deal of marching and countermarching in caucus, the delegates ta the Republican Convention toed tha line to-day and nominated the full ticket agreed upon and promulgated by the Cameron two changes, not in opposition to this pro- gramme, but by way of modilication to managers three months azo. Last night it ap- peared inevitable that there would ho one or strengthen the ticket. Grow wason last night's slate for Lieutenant-Uovernor, and tone was to ba dropped ticket, but it to the tall of the was found to-day that the old ticket was too well started to beupset at such ghort motice. Although the Convention was full of opnosition to the Cain- eron rule, it sssumed no definite shape or form, nabody being willing to lead it. The oppost- tion candidates for Governor, Grow, Wicker- #bam, and Beaver, really countod ou the Cam- eron influence, each hoplog until the lsst tlat Cameron would drop Hoyt snd take him. The probability ts that the battle will be fought out in the contest over the cluction of the Legista. tare which s to chioose Don Cameron's sticeess- or. The fafluro to refer to Hayes at auy stage of thc proccedings, elther in specch or resolution, has been variously commented upon, The gmencral answer Is “gerved him right,” and often the sentiment {s emphasized by terms more clerant than poet- ical. No Hayes delegates were vislble. Gen. White made s feeble confidential defense of the President In the Committec on Resolutions, but be aid not venture to put bimself on the record {n support of the Administration in opeu con- ventfon. Bill Kemble explains that they had decided in favor of a short platform vot exceed- {ug two inches in length, so that it could be printed Ip full on hiand-bills fot public meetinzs, and that they fouud it impossible to get an approval of Hayes iusosmallaapace; so it was omitted. Mackey says that they foreot all aoout it. Russell Errctt insists that Repub- lican Couventlons never o Inderse Demucratic Admiuistrations. Senator Don Uatncron says that the party and Hayes must arrange thelr own funerals, as he is just now more interested in weddings, and tho vencrable ex-Senator Cameron says that IHaves has stirred up the thorns of lifs own nest and the Republican party does not care whcther bo scratelics bis sores I the organfzation or out of it TNE PROCEEDINGS. o the Western Astortated Pross.
