Few meno were more generally or favorably known at the national capital than Dr. Hail, and the death of but few persons would leave a wider or deeper gap.

The Outlook Uncertain, Cuicaco, June 7.—The morning 1s bright and cool. The hotels and city have been materially depleted of their crowds Since Saturday. At 10 o'clock the delegates are_comfng in slowly and the galleries rapidly filling up with spectators. Speculation as to the result of to-day is very di- verse. The Grant men profess confidence but do not look it. They admit their vote will fali below 300 on the first ballot, but urge that it will increase on sar cauent Toll-calls, and they Will win as soon as the friends of Sherman and the other nominees who are lower in the lists Sball see that the contest is between Grant and Blaine. The friends of the latter do not talk but appear equally confident and resolute. It looks to-day as if their vote might lead Grant's on the first ballot, but no prediction will be Safe In the present condition of affairs, Opening Proceedings.
