Spectat Dispatch to -The Chicago Tiong: ° CINCINNATI; O., Juno 23,—The ‘grateful breezes all died sway. duting tlio night, and the morning dawned sweltering hot and op- pressive. Some clouds in the sky far up moved over the basin as if stirred by a siight- ly agitated atmosphere, but: in the basin It- self thore was what the sailors call a “dead calm.”: Early in the day tho ronsted and broiled community ‘resolved itself into o committes of the wholo on the subject of fans, and every individual member thereot armed himself or herself with one of thoso uscful .imploments, and proceeded to work up the highest possible de greo of artifical heat. Tho Convention como {nto the hall with « fan in {ts hand, The audience caine similarly equipped, and the press brought up the rear of the throng of fanners. Everybody forgot about the con- test for tho Pres{dential nomination, and thought only of the best method of keeping cool. ‘Tho face of every person in the hall was a miniature river-bed down whose chan- nels ran streams of perspiration. Cinclunatl onthis supreme occasion did complete jus- tice to Its fame as the hottest place ‘THIS SIDE THE INFERNAL REGIONS. + But the people were anxious to witness the Convention proceeding, ond at 10 o'clock the hail galleries were packed to thelr utmost capacity, and fifteen ininutes later the whole auditorium looked like a freshly-opened box of sardines, people swimming in perspiration 8 ttle fishes swim in oll, When the Tam- many chieftain marched into the hall at the hoad of tho Tammany cohorts there was o faint effort at a cheer, but the yolces of the ‘applauders ‘died in tholr thronts, smoth- cred by tho fearful ntmosvhere, The delegates were too tired to caucus, They sank languidly into their sents, praying for a little more air. In the midst of the general dampness tho Chairman rapped threa loud raps, which sounded hollow, like the revorboratlons of strokes on an empty barrel, and directed the Convention to “rise for prayor.” ‘The Con- yention rose dripping, and remained stand- Ing and dripping whilo the Rov, Charles W.. Taylor, of Covington, Ky., addressed the ‘Throne of Divine Grace. Then tho Chair man rapped ons hollow rap, and again called the Convention to order, The rending of the niinutes of the last ses- sion was dispensed with, . PRELIMINARY Wonk, A delegate fram Indiana sent up a bun- combe resolution In favor of penstoning the soldlers of the Mexican War, which was re- ferred under the rule, A tologram from somo crazy Democrat in Alabama was read from the Speaker's desk, to the effect that the materials for a bontire were In readiness {o celebrate the results of the Convention, regardless of what the re- sults might be,— characteristle Democratic sentiment, ‘The Chairman of tha Committeoon Cro- dentlals could not be found, and, after con- siderable delay, the Committee on Permanent Organization made itsreport, ‘Thesubstance of this report has already been given to the public, Each State gave a weak cheer at the announcement of the nae of its Vice-President, aud when the name of “Hamburg” Butler was called there was 8 good, hearty, old-fashioned Robel yell. Atthe conclusion of the reading of rumes of Vico-Presidents and Seoretaries the Chalrs man of the Committee on Credentials tried to report, but was ruled out, A motion was made from Louisiana that the furthey con> sideration of the report of the Committee on Permanent Organization be . dispensed with until the Convention should have acted on the report of the Committes on Credentials, which was carried, and yeading thereof proceeded, * MASSACHUSETTS was 4 DISPOSED OF DY SHORT by admitting both parties to the contest. The reading of the report touching the New York contest, which briefly and ourtly ousted the Tammany-Kelly crowd, was recelyed with loud cheers. The language of tho report was: "We have weighed tho evidence care- fully, and with singular unanimity agreed to report in favor of the slitting members.” Carroll, of Kansna, presented the minority report, which was supported In committes by only four members, Boforehe had opened his mouth the anti-Taminany crowd began to gag him with erles of “Louder!” The Chairman rapped the body to order, but order In this Convention {is some- thing very likechaus, Carroll had procoeded for about x minute when he was again drowned out by the regtiar New-Yorkers and their gang in the galleries. The Chalr- man again came to the rescuc of the gentle- man from Kansas with a statement that he was ontitied to the courtesy of the Conven- tion, and he proposed to sce that the gentle- man got ft. The minority reported that thoy found two factions in New York, each hav- Ing all the machinery of 9 perfect party or- ganization, and each assuming to represent 5 large body of the Democratic voters of tho State; that each had HELD A REGULAR CONVENTION and elocted delegates; that the attitude of the two factions was precisely analogous to that of the New York Democracy In 185, ‘when the National Convention, to unite the party, divided the delegation, giving each faction one-half of the vote; that such action untted the party in New York, and eventuat- ed in the election of a Democratic President. In the words of the report, “ A similar course at this time would result in the success of the party.” They therefore recommended the admission of fifty regulars and twen- ty Kelly men, with the additional Tecommendstion that each set de- termine the method of casting {ts vote. The report was signed by the mem- bers from Kansas, Arkansas, New Jersey, and Colorado, and its recommendations were received with hoots, yells, and hisses from the anti‘Tammany fellows, and cheers and yells from the Kellyites, Young, of Georgia, Chairman of the Com- mittee on Credentials, domanded the pre~ vious question. Delegates begged him to withdraw his demand, but he declined. Tho Chairman put the question amid considera- ble confusion. A division was demanded, and the call of the roll of States ordered. ALABAMA, BEING CALLED FIRST, asked fortime. After ten minutes of nolso Alabama was again called, and voted 5 aye, 15 no, whereat the Tammany crowd howled with delight, Illinois voted 34 noes to 16 ayes. Kansas voted solid “No.” Louisiana and Maryland voted solld “No.” New York was excused from voting. Ohio voted 25 aye, 16 no, showing the Payne and Thurman division substantially. South Carolina voted solld “No.” Virginin voted 4 aye, 16 no. Wisconsin voted solid “No. Tho result was 360 to 205, and the main question was ordered. Young, of Georgia, then took the floor, an- nouncing that one hour would be allowed for debate, of which forty minutes would bo conceded to the contestants.. In addition, he gavo up tho privilege of opening to the Kellyites, whereupon a request was made that John Kelly be permitted to representthe case of the contestants, but Kelly was notin the hall, There was great nolse and con- fusion in all parts of the hall during this episode. Hundreds of delegates were on thelr feet shouting to the Chair and yelling at each other, and the audience joined with ONEERS, HISSE8, AND DERISIVE SIOUTS, seomingly for the were fun of the thing, At last compartive quiet was restored, and it was announced that tho advocates of the minority report would be heard, wheroupon George W. Miller, of Albany, led off. : After addressing his hearers as “ fellow Democrats of the great continental Republic of Amer- ica,’ he fluttered his metaphorical olive- branch, and pleaded for free speech, har- mony, and general loveliness, A warm in- dorsement of Kelley brdught forth sympa- thetle cheers anda storm of hisses, and the speaker switched off on the general question. In the course of his plea for representation he mentioned the name of Bayard; but the applause was magnificent as compared with that following tha statement that “his dele- gation expected to support whoever was nominated.” But lt wasn’t good policy, he argued, to “reduce the officers to the ranks and take tholr swords ‘away from them.” In exninining the claim of the sitting delegates, this apostle of Tammany amusingly de nounced regularity as only another namo nowadays for machine, ‘Tho Injustice of the machine had destroyed the hopes of ono candidate at Chicago, and he suggested that it wasn’t best to court defeat here, The best way to i RESTORE PERFECT HARMONY was to divide the delegation, as recommended in the report, This done, the Committec might look for an old-fashioned majority from the Empire State, AmasaJ, Parker, the Albany lawyer, fol- lowed for thesame side, Me is a plain, solid, scholarly-looking man, and he spoke quietly but carnestly in support of Tammany and its delegates. His weak voice, however, wns put to a severe test,and the Convention missed alarge part of what he said. Ho spoke of his loyalty to the party, his labors for Gov, Robinson, the sincerity and fidelity of the delegation, and, In short, made a quiet, dignified plea for falmplay. Gov. Hubbard, of Toxas; a large, portly man, with.a good head and 9 powerful volco, made the specch of the occasion. He began very cleverly by saying thatthe Toxas dele- gation had come prepared to vote for Tilden, The Tilden men on the floor aud in tho xal- lorles took up the cry, and howled thelr ap- proval for soyeral minutes, ‘To captivate the iriends of other candidates, ho declared the willingness of the delegation to vote for Han- cock, Hendricks, or Bayard; or whoever the nominee might be. “ We area Solid South on that, thank God!” he oxclaimed, and AN APPROVING YELL went up from the Southerners and the gal- leries, The minority,report: smacked of fair play, and the Conyontion couldn't got rid of it, Alluding to regularity, he remarked that “some fellows might be so regular that they had to lean backward.” This raised a laugh and helped him along immensely with his audience, on whom he was already pro- dueling a good effect. Thus fortified, he ap- pealed to the Convention to do justice, to nd- mit the contestants, to heat all dls- scnstons, and not to barter away the party’s birtheicht for a aniserablo moss of. pottage, Becoming more quotatlye, he warned the doubtful Stato that if there was to be any “ deop damnation” of the .party's “taking off? thoy could not “shake thelr gory locks’ at the aforesaid Solld South, for it would do Sts best by tho ticket, whoover was nominated, If tha party failed this timo it would fall through the at- titude In November of tho doubtful States, and “if it did fail the sun might never raise on it again, With’ this final warning, he poured Ing closing plea for falr dealing, and retired with the good opinion of a Jarge part of the Convention. + _ABTER THE CONFUSION resulting from the reglly powerful epeech of Gov, Hubbard, tho Convention was addressed «in support of the majority report by John R. Fellows, of New Yqrk, Ho declared that he was not an orator; that he did not come to appeal to passion and prejudice; ina word, that he proposed to appeal to the heads and not the heels of the Convention, He then proceeded to discuss the facta of the case, those technical polnts treated so slightingly PRICE FIVE by Gov. Hubbard, and showed, what was not dented by the eloquent gentleman from Texas, that there was no single ele- ment of -regularity wanting in the ease of the sitting members. He was as dull throughout as he promised to be in the open- ing, but when he sat down there wns nothing left of the Tammany claim but an empty sentiment. He said that the Kelly faction np- peared here “guilty of having walked over the slaughtered body of the Democratic party,” and that it “had no claim except the fact that it had had strength enough to de- feat {ta own party in {ts own State? He charged that Kelly had sald hero in this elty that ha The whicago Daily Cribune, ; “WOULD NOT SUPPORT SAMURL J,.TILDEN' in theevent of his nomination, and that, In the event of such nomination, the Kelty fac tion would make a bolting nomination. His personalities lost him the ear of the audience, and he retalintec by sneering at the galleries, He closed by dpfying the Convention to deny to tho soverelgn State of New York the right held sacred by every delegation on the floor. “Dare you,” exclaimed he, ‘violate her sa- cred person?” ‘This pecullar stylo created a laugh. Ho recovered himself In an elucida- tion of tho great doctrine of Staterights, and retired amid generous applause. F. L. Westerbrook, of Kingston, N.Y., closed for the minority. Hedefended Tammany Hall, culogized Jobn Kelley, and pleaded for harmony. His speech was dull, and had no effect upon elther the Convention or. the audience, and the delegates began to caucus actively on the approaching vote. Peckham, of Albany, supported the ma- jority report. He opened by echoing the statement of Ilubbard, of Texas, that “It fs votes that we waut’’; but declared the ques- tion to be “how to get them.” Referring to the “election of Tilden! {n 1876," ho was greeted with great cheers from THE TILDEN Couorrs on the floor and the galleries. He proceeded to review the history of New York Demo- cratic politics, reflecting seriously upon Kelly nnd the Tammanyites, . These refer- ences to history and reflections upon Kelly were, recetyed with mingled cheers and hisse$. He contluded with the stereotyped promise to “give tho thirty-five Electoral votes of the Empire State to the nomines of the Convention.” Gen. Young, of Georgia, Chairman of the Committee, was given three minutes to close the debate. His chief point was that the sit- ting delegates were the only ones possessing credentials. Itwassaid that ‘ thecontestants would bolt Tilden; but Tilden wasn’t before thisConventlon. 1forone,” the Georginn went on, * would to God he was.” : Of course this was only another Tilden feeler, and the yells in response told him how to talk. In closing, he read tho call for the State Convention, and made the point that Kelly had threatened then and since to bolt Tilden. The Convention was apparently glad when the speeches from tho platform were over, and the Chairman announced the question to be on the substitution of the minority for tho majority report. There wasa GOOD DEAL OF BUZZING around among the delegates previous to and during the taking of the vote, and the prose- lyters on both sides were busy as bees, Tho votes of a comparatively few States, how- ever, soon showed how it was golng, and after that but very little interest was taken in the result. The Clerk finally announced the death-knell to all of John Kelly’s hopes in this Convention in the overwhelming vote | of 467 nays to 205}¢ yeas. Tho minority re- port was smashed; John Kelly was out in the cold, and the majority report went through moment ‘Inter with a rush, Tho killing kindness of the victors allowed tne Tammany fellows to swelter on the wrong-side of the railing separauink the délegates from the bedy of tha hall, Having finished this rather disagreeable piece of business, the Convention lost no time In adopting the report of the Committee on Permanent Organization and in sending “Hamburg” Butler and Senator McDonald ont tnto the open alr to hunt up Stevenson, the Permanent Chairinan-elect, They wero gone so long that somebody suggested thoy had crossed over Into Kentucky to tell him the news. When they did come in they ap- peared without him, and the Convention took a rest. WILE THEY STOOD TOORING ANOUND For he was discovered at last drinkingsomething that wasn’t Ohio River mud, and was brought in, Judge Hondley presented him to the Convention, and turned over the gavel to him Ina handsome ‘speech, Gov. Stevenson 4s not a prepossessing looking individual. Ilo has the appearance of 4 bulldog, and a bull- dog of a vory fierce aspect. Ills speech was of the most commonplace character, deliv- ored hesitatingly ina very unoven voice. It came out in jerky. periods, sounding occa- slonally not unlike the park uf the canine tha speaker so much resembles. Io attributed the honor of his selection to the old Com- monwealth of Kentucky rather than to any personal merit, Jn the courso of his re- marks he made tlio startling declaration that “ parties cliange, mon change, but principles nroeternal.” His speech consisted of 1 se- ries of platitudes not of the lenst interest to anybody, and they were recctyed Iu silence by the Convention and the audionce. Having finished his speech he announced that tho Committeo on Resolutions was requested to meet immediately in a side room, Breckin- ridge, of Kentucky, jumped up and moved that the Convention proceed at once to the business of NOMINATING A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE. ‘The proposition was hailed with cheers, but it had to give way to the windy effort of a young Democrat in front who had a resolu- tion of thanks to the retiring Hoadloy. Tho resolution was adopted, and the Temporary Chairman gracefully acknowledged the formal compliment, Kentucky renewed its motion, The young orator moved'to adjourn, That motion was yoted down by a decided majority. Great confusion hgre ensued, Bfotions were mada to adjourn, fo proceed to place Presidential candidates In nomination, but finally the latter motion prevailed, whereat thore was a yell of applouse.., The order of procecding was to call the roll of States, and proposers of candidates to have five minutes Jn which to set forth the claims of their re- spective favorita, ‘The call proceeded, and, California being reached, Mfr, McElrath took the platforin and read a speoch in support of Judge Field, whose name he presented, He indulged in a good deal of gesticulation, which waa funny, rather than lmpressive, since, as his arms went up, his eyes went down to the manuseript which Jay on the desk before him. He remarked, something about ‘tho star of Empire taking ita way ‘Weatward,” spoke of the Rocky Mountains enthpsisstically, aud INDULGED IN OTHER ¥LIGHTS that the Convention did not }uuderstand, ‘The best that can be sald of Mr, MoHlrath ls that he {a 4 young man and will doubtless have time to improve hls style before Field, of California, is elected to the Presidency. Colorado, in the person of one Brown, a gentloman with something of the woodchuck description in his. make-up, seconded the nomination. The gallarles made it so dis- agreeable for him that he turned around and addressed the Chairman confi. dentlally and appealingly even, Then he wes howled at by cries of ‘Time,’ - well he did know him, going over much of the Chalrman- crowd that “ the ey them,’ and that “1 - do." The galleries and the: floor evidently didn’t care,a rush for the “eyes of the world,” and tho old gentleman was finally gind enough to retreat to tho calla of “Time” and yells of ‘approval as ho stepped. down and out. BAYARD, 5 At tho call of Delaware there was immensa cheering, and the Hon. George Gray took tho platform to presont the name of Senator Bay- ard. Mr, Gray is man of 40, a handsome man, tall, erect, with oan imposing presence; but he fs notan orator, for he defiantly placed some shoots of papor on the desk before him, and from time to time his eyes sought the manuscript. When in the middle of his oration ho alluded to his candidate by his full name, Thomas Francis. Bayard, thore. was very hearty applause, This speech was falrly good in matter and manner, but no reader can hold an andiencd however, well ho may read, and ‘signs of weariness in the galleries began to appear in. afew minutes. It is to be noted that Mr. Gray made no mention of Mr. Sarena: ts secession speech of 1861. - Iilinots each Mk inols wos reached and Sam Marshal took the stand to present the name of Little \e Morrison. It wns suggested, not in the Cone : vention proper, that his late letter to Chapin & Gore, of Chicago, would be a better intro~ duction than Mr. Marshall could give him. , Mr. Marsball made a little speech appropri- ate to the presentation of the name of a little man, and it was received with occasional little cheers delivered in a little voice, Ho sald nothing about Morrison’s having boon‘ favorably mentioned In goneral orders ., Upon one oceasion during his career as ao Colonel, nor did he -say anything of his service in the Mexican war, both of which circumstances Mr, Morrison referred to his letter to Chapin & Gore., The confusion became very great nt the ‘close of Mr. Marshall’s efforts, and calls of “Time” ' “Time,” ete. were frequent, But Marshall |" |? did not lose his presence of mind. He pulled up his coat-sleeves in frontier style and re- marked that “Morrison was a man of integ- tity, firmness of purpose,” ete. There, were if more cat-calls, whereupon a delegate cama ‘: |! to tho rescue of the speaker and threatened = * the expulsion of the audience. Thon Sam managed to come to the point, and presented ‘| his little man. HENDUICKS, h Indiana was the next on the rojl-call, and 8 yell went up as the clerk announced her. It was noticeable that the noise came from the rear of the hall and the galleries, and not L from the delegates to any great extent. The /. cheers were repeated n3 Dan, Voorhees, the “Tall Sycamore of the Wabash,” mounted, the platform to nominate his fellow from Hoosierdom, Ha know ali those who had been put In nomination, he said, but he knew better than all Thomas A.
