How the Nominatious Were Received Here. Washington was lively town yesterday, andthe seven successive editions of THE STAR, announcing the several ballots at Cincinnati, were read with eager interest. The Extra STAR, with the result of the first ballot, was on the street a few minutes after the dispatch was {received, and met a lively sale, and from that time until the result was known, the succeeding editions—one for each ballot—were sold by an army of news- D ys as rapidly as our fast press could throw then off. The newspaper and telegraph offices, the Capitol, the hotels, and every place where telegrams were received, were besiegei by &nxious crowds. The sudden announcement, late In the afternoov, of the nomination of Hayes, was not on by many repud- lica..s who bad closely wateued the course of events at Civcinnati. These, and others who had counted on the nomination of Blaine as a foregone conclusion, with the friends of other candidates, all seemed equally satisfied in a short time, and ani versal @xpressions were heard on every hand toat the copvention had acted wisely, and the ticket was bound to win. After the news of Hayes’ nomination had been received, and @ great crowd had gath- ered about THE STAR bulletin board and a large assemblage at the teiegraph office cor- ner of 14th street and Pennsylvania avenue, Mr. Blaine rode down the avenue, and was the observed of all observers. His cordial letter to Hayes, published in our last edition, ‘Was warmnly praised as characteristic of the man, and every way worthy of his name and fame. We bave not seen so little difference of opinion among republicans for many a long day as there was in regard to the nom. ins Lions; after there was time to think them over.

Henry Browa, or New York, Making the first camparge speech. VIEWS OF THE PRESIDENT AXD GENERAL SHERMAN. When the news of the nominations was communicated to the President he satd that it Was @ good ticket, that both the gentle- men were worthy of the lence and sup- pert of the republicans In every part of the country, and he had no doubt thelr elec- tion. Gen. Sherman, in speaking of Gov. H , Said be was an excellent officer in ibe war. He said, “I know Governor Hayes, ard there never was & purer, better man in public or private life.

Saturpay, June MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT. SENATE.—A message was recelved from the President calling attention of Congress to the near approach of the close of the fiseal year, and the failure of Congress thus far to make appropriation for the ortinary and necessary expenses of the public service. Toe President quotes the 9th article of the Con- stitution and the sections of the revised statutes bearing on the subject, the effect of which, taken together, is, he says, to prohibit any ontley towards defraying the ordinary and necessary expenses of the public service, exerpt so far as provision is made by permanent appropriations, which are very limited. He points out the evils that moust arise from the failure of the appropriation bills, and urges some action to avoid ihe evils that must result should no provision be made for carrying on the government, and suggests asa remedy the passage of 2 joint resoiution extending temporarily the provisions of the last appro Priation bills for the legislative, judicial, and executive expenses, consular aid diplo: matic, post ¢flice,army and naval service, the expenditure made under this resolntion to be deducted from the regular appropria- tion when made, and submits the draft of a Joint resolution to that effect. The message was ordered laid on the table for future action and to be printed. THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL, The Senate then proceeded, after procia- mation by the Sergeant-at-Arms, to the trial of the impeachment case. Mr. Black, counsel for Mr. Belknap, said their witnesses were many of them at a dis- tance, and some time would be required to bring them here. Tnere were reasons that must be obvious to Senators and understood and appreciated by the managers, which made it proper that there should bs a post- ponement of the trial tili the middle of No- vember. With the consent of the managers he conld confidently = to the Senate for & postponement. In order to test the matter he entered a motion to postpone the trial to some convenient day in Noyeraber. Mr. Lord said under the circumstaaees the managers asked leave to cqnsult the House, whereupon the court adjourned to Monday- At 12:45 p. m. the Senate adjourned.

In 1867, when the republicans of Ohio were looking for a candidate for governor who would mateh Judge Thurman, the democratic nominee, they pitched upon Hayes. He resigned his seat in Congress, went home, made a superb canvass of the state, and defeated the strong- est demoerat in Ohio. A few years later he was pitted against George Peudle'ton, @ shining light of the Ohio democracy, and also whipped him out of the fleld. Bat he is best known to the country on aceouut of his oeny over William Alien last November. Allen hat been elected governor In 1375 after @ tremendous fight, and his election was actually the first sign of that tidal wave which yy se over the country the pext year, and sent @ democratic majority to the House of Re} ‘ntatives. In 1875 his party renomi- inated him, and the republicans turned once more to the man who beaten Thurman and Pugh, placed him on ahard-money piat- form, and started him out to conquer Allen. The campaign that followed was as memor- able a one as aay that ever occurred in a single state of the Union, Both parties brought in the abiest speakers of vheir side from all parts of the country, and the state was ge gt canvassed one end to tne other. It was Hayes and hard-money versus Allen and the rag-baby. It is scarcely porsible that even in @ Presidential caai- e in the excitement ran higher than it did in Ohio last fall. The democrats had the prestige of victory and ——— of thé gov- ernment, and it was quite a serious question Whether the delusive attractiveness of green- back platform would not draw off so many ieans that Allen would surely be re- elected. But Hayes led the fight with inim- itable pluck and energy, and when the votes Were counted it was found that ihe voice of been strangled. The majority was small, but itwasenough.

CxRIcaGo, June 17.—The Zri>une in an edi- torial commenting on the nominations at Cincinnati says the convention won adoubdle victory for the country in nominating a Ucket which will be heartily accepted and endorsed by the republicans aud reformers all parts of the country. The convention it asserts, earned the thanks of the erican people for the courage and aevo- lion which it brought to the selection of a teket entitled to the respect and confidence of the nation, and for the manner with which it rejected the others. The nomina- ton is the triumph of reform, the triumph of the popular demand Jor the purification Of the public service, the restoration of re- sponsibility and accountability in the ad- ministration of the government. Mr. Hay in all that pertains to the great principies and policies of reform and retrenchment, snd the integrity of the administration,is as acceptable as Mr. Bristow. Less kuown to the people, perhaps, he is widely known a8 @ man With a clear head, sound judgment, pa tie record, and, above all, clean banus, @ stranger to the lobby, and with no eniangiing business alliance with subsidy seekers or gamblers In the national credit. For the nomination of a man so pure pudlicly and privately,and at the sametime So identifec with the great reformatory pol- itics that the prevailing corruption has made 80 essential, the convention will deserve and receive the grateful thanks of the coun- try. We have no fears for the result of the election. The battie was practically won at Ciocinpati. It is immaterial who may be bominated at St. Louis. The republican rty has been saved from the only defeat oat Lnreatened it.” The Times says:—“The nomination of R. 3. Hayes for President by the Ciucinaati convention is 8 surprise to the whole coun- try and a bitter disappointment to the party managers, whose combinations have thus been brought to nought.” Tae article speaks of him as a qaiet and rather obscure Obio gentleman, who has fatied to improve his opportunities to become distinguisned. «His candidacy will create no such fervor as would that of Blaine, the magnetic partisan leader. Whether he can be beaten will de- pend on whether wisdom or folly shali pre vail at St. Louis.” The Inter-Ucean, after reviewing his polit- ical life, ple popularity in Ohio, and standing ability. declares that “Mr. Biaine excepted, Gov. Hayes has as many elements of positive leadership as whose name came before the cox vention. His name is more intimately associated with recent victories. No man could bring out the full strength of the party more than he wili;on no man can the warm partisau of other candidates unite so readily. He is able and ced, & man to be proud of; @ candidate that wil! arouse asm and call out ail the loyaity lican masses. Te local press agree that the nomination of Mr. Wheeler for the second place on the ticket was the best aad strongest Unat could be made. The firstannouncement of the nominations Was not recsived witu the most marked e thusiasm, but there is & feeling amor thinking men that the nominatiou will prove wise, and that the support they will receive here will be of the strongest kiad. What the New York Tribaue Says. New York, June 17.-To-day’s Tribune says: “The action of the Cioctanati coavea lon yesterday was something of a surprise, but It will command the approval of a large majority of republicans, and the ticket will have the cordial support of the whole party. Gov. Hayes is a man of whom {t is impossi- ble to say & Word of evil. Personally he is not only above reproach, bat above susp!- cion. ‘There are no dark corners in his his tory which need investigation or have ever Set the tougue of scandal wagging. The Tvi dune, certainly, which supported him so strenuously when he was fighting his —— fight for hard money against @ Allen and Cary madmea, last r, can find po fault with his nomination now. Tae liberals and independent re formers who lent &li their strength to his eanvass in 1875 will sustain him io the trials of & broader but easier field. Tae reform element of the party will feel that its just demands have been consnuited in his nomination, aud those who belleve in goot money will see in his namea better pledge for speedy resumption than any resolutions of @ cenvention could give, and an ample com: jon for the vagueness of the piat- form.

The Tribu says it supported Blaine because it was o r that he had been unjustly attacked. most ardent friends must now admit, tbat he haa bitter enemies in ais own party; and, secondly, that his campaign, if be had been nominated, Would of necessity be a de- fensive one. There are no such odjections to Messrs. Hayes and Wheeler. ‘They will unite all the hitherto jarring factions The Times aisO gives the ticket entuusias- tic support.
