He was unanimously elected. Chas, H. Lichman, of Mass., and Perry P. Max- fon, of Kan., were appointed temporary secre- taries. About 650 delegates, representing ail the states of the Union, were present,and nearly 1,000 spectators. Chairman De La Maytr, on taking the chair, explained the principles of the party, and spoke of Gen. Garfleld’s reference in Congress to the Weaver resolutioas as the last spawn of a dying faction as a false simile and an untrue statement. The convention then prceceded to the appointment of the usual com- mitrees. During the call of states,all of which ex- ceptOregon, responded, a delegate fron NewYork moved that the painting of the late Z. Chandier, Conspicuous over the stage, be removed, as ov: noxious to the feelings or the convention. ‘The chairman ruled that the motion was out of order, but promised the removal of the obnox- fous portrait.

A strong anti-Chinese resolution was offered and referred, when the convention adjourned until this morning. The Pomeroy faction resolved to disband and merge itself into the regular or- ganization.

Mr. Morrill said Bennington was the first revolutionary victery and should be commemo- rated. Mr. McDonald opposed the bill.

Mr. Harris stated that nis side of the House did not desire any time for debate, but were willing to grant a reasonable time to the re- publicans, Before an agreement was arrived at, ademand for the regular order put an end to further ne- gotlations. ‘The Speaker then proceeded to call commtt- tees for reports, but the only bill reported was one from the committee on mines and mining, for the survey and disposal of the mineral lands of the United States. It was referred to the commit tee of the whole. On motion of Mr. Welborn, the Dill was poe creating the northern judictal district of ‘Texas.

Ingersoll expressed himself in regard to Gen. Gui field as follows: think Garfleid’s presentation of Sherman wa3 admirable in every respect—candid, fair, kind to all parties, and upon an exceedingly high plane of thought. One sentence in his speech struck me as par- {cularly fine: ‘His hand was in the workman- ship of the statutes that restored and brougnt back the unity and married calm of states.” I think, too, the figure with which he opened ex- tremely beautiful: ‘It is the calm level of the sea from which the heights and depths are measured.’ When we take into consideration what Mr. Garfield was talking about, and the Subject that inspired his remarks, we must admit that the effort was an immense success, Ishall always believe, as long as I live, that Gantield, while describing Sherman, was think- ing of Blaine or himse! If any outsider is taken, I hope it will be Garfield. If Ohio wants a man, let Ohio ask for her best.” The Markets. - BALTIMORE, June 10.—Virginia sixes, old, 20 do. deferrea, est do. consoles 89x: a>. sstond seri 3g: do. past due coupons, 9434 askel; dc. ce ied 41: do. ten-forty coupons, 95 BALTIMORE, June 10.—Cotton quiet -midaling, 11%.

Lonpon, June 10.—The British, French, Rus- slan, Austrian and Italian ambassadors resident at Berlin and Prince Hohenlohe, of the German foreign oftice, will meet there on Wednesday next, aided by experts. who are to compose the elimitation Commission. The conference, after determining the mode of procedure in ascertain- ing the boundary line, will probably instruct, the technical commission to proceed to the spot, the conference meanwhile adjourning. ‘These preliminary labors will consume about two Weeks. When the technical commission 1s ready to report the conference will reassemble and draw up the final protocal, giving an authori- tative interpretation of article 24 of the treaty of Berlin. This will be the basis of the col- lective mediation of the powers. The confer- ence has no control over the attitude of Turkey and Greece, as they will not be represented.
