Ae F 1U sincchgsbabe NOTES. ‘What Was Said of the Conven- tion Last Night. “4 eee GENERAL DISAPP’y ‘SINTMENT. heise! Chgse the, Favorite of the People. Atér the adjournment of Taesday it was coni- acatly expected that the name or Chief Justice Chase ould be placed before tue Gonvention on ite re- wesembling yester@ay morning; but people were Bound %o disappemtment, and still more so later in ‘the day, when that gentleman's name, on receiving but half a vote, won a greeting the like of which has ot been beard within the walls of Tammany since ‘ite inauguration; and yet that half vote wae with- ‘@rawn and the name was heard no more during the wemainder of the day. However, both people and “delegates are comfidet that a new man will be put forward to-day—one of such well known ability and influence as will insure a union of all factions and be the successgu! standard bearer of the democratic Peviy. That such a man is desirable at the present moment may he eastly seen from the proceedings of yesterday, when, after eighteen ballots, no nomina- on could be obtained, and the Convention ag- Journed to this morning to the surprise of all inter- ested, who were certain that last evening would see the selection made. It cannot well go beyond to- day, and \t is more than Mkely that by noon the man will be chosen, and wili be one whose name has up to the present been the least conspicuous in the pro- ceedings of the Convention. THE LATEST FORM OF SALUTATION. ‘The standard and stereotyped salutation “How do you #o%” has now given place to the more exciting “How goes the Convention; who do you think will be Dominated?’ This same is in many senses a re- lief: there ie much more sincerity in it, for the man who does not care one jackstraw “how you are” cares a whole and undivided haystack about the “mowination.” Everywhere one went it was the ame, same question, and crowds gathered at every -corner to discuss the answer. At one time it was “Pendleton is going it,” at another ‘(Hendricks is ooking up,” and then in steps @ Hoosier with the exclamation, “Now, strangers, there is no use in your chaffing in that ‘ere manner. Pendleton is all right and would have been nominated if them ‘ere New York chaps did not commence playing their tricky games. Now we'll beeven with them yet; we will, by —.” HOW THE WESTERN MEN FEEL TOWARDS THE NEW YORKERS. That the Western men feel bitter with the New Yorkers is very evident. They say that they came to the Convention to do their best for the country; that they frankly and honestly showed their hands and Publicly declared for their favorite, while at the game time they were willing to stand by any other candidate who should prove himself @ greater favorite with the Convention. On the other hand the New York delegates were con- tinually shuMing and trying to deceive them—evi- Gently treating them more as political enemies than as friends and members of the one grand organiza- tion. The New Yorkers (the politicians) they seem to think are more trained tn the school of chicanery, treachery and trickery than their Western brethren— men who only reached a position in the political at- mosphere primarily by means of hard work in the Heide, behind the counter or at the desk. How much of this complaint may have foundation remains to be Been, but certain it ts that the remarks here quoted but meagrely illustrate the feeling entertained by the great public of the Western men now in this city towards the delegation representing the Empire State. A CAUTIOUS DRLEGATE. ‘When addressing some of the delegates from the far off Weatern States 1t 1s wel! to bear in mind the order, “hands off,” as they are yery suspicious of New Yorkers in general—strangers particularly. Lay a hand, as we saw’ a young gentieman do, on the coat of one, aud he shrinks from you as from fre; tap him on the shoulder, and he laughs at you, but touch or fiddle with his watch chain ang) he jumpe as if you were the very d—! himeeif. This is moO mere imagination on their part. They fully be. Heve in it, and think that any man hailtng from New York requires close and careful watching, and in proof of this it may be here stated that many have left their trinkets aud watches at home. A young gentleman, by no means an appropriator ©1 other people's property, asked a delegate from Missouri for the time, when the otuer replied:—‘‘Now, young man, I don't knew the time, ut rayther guess its past nine, J have a watch. but leftit ‘to hum,’ Not 60 green as to trust it around ina Ngw York crowd. Qan wait till J get hum to know what's the time, and the old woman Keeps the ticker safe mean- times.” DELEGATES IN COSTUME. Standing on the steps of the Astor House, the New York, or others of the prominent hotels, it is more than interesting to study the costumes of the difer- ent strangers who there congregate. The dresses are as varied as the wearers are numerous, and would iD many cases puzzie the most inge- mious tailor to imitate them. There stands one tall Individual Dot lese than six feet two inches in height, corpuient in proportion and equally loud in votce and demonstrative in gesture. A rough straw hat, with awially wide leaves, covered a head more than ‘usually large; the neck was freed from any collar, and a long, straggling white coat decorated his back anc shoulders; mo vest; no necktie, and an tnex- Preseibie pair of inexpressivies ended the tatloring department; ana thts piece of furniture i# particu. larly, excruciatingly queer. It is amy color and every color you like to call it and is made tight and loose ip the wrong places and ends on @ pair of boots undoubtedly Western. Next comes @ dandy from Philadelphia, decorated with @ny amount of badges, tight panis, tight face, tight boots, white shirt, vesi tie and hat and black coat. ‘Then there is the tail Kentuckian, with his rakish siouched bat, leaf turned down, low collar and long tailed black coat, and near by i# a low sized man with dark, yellow face and jet black bair, who wears & short velvet jacket, White veet and snow white shirt and pantaloone: this is @ Texan and shows it in Lis dark ey Then there ts the tall, lean New Englander, the miner from Montana, the trapper from the plaine and the halforeed from Arkatisas. In short, bever did New York @ustain tts commopolig tap character #0 thoroughly a# at the present mo. ment, aud let us ask What are THE DELEGATES’ REFRESHMENTS. Well, they are everything.

STRANGER—Chase? eines eae Chase, Chase will beat them a THE ALABAMIANS also expreased themselves ip favor of Chase and hoped that he would ‘be put forward to-day. One ciaeeenes gentieman of that State said last night delegation ng ee solid for him, but-that it was not their place to him forward; they hoped New York or some other No ‘Northern or Western State would do that and then they would su; re him. eer genleman said he was Mr. Chase in many respects, but that he believed: he was the onlyman who could beat the radical candidate and take the country safe out of its present difficul- ties. Arkansas men spoke almost im the same manner, and in opp old of Pendieton there was not be h uttered @ le word against Chase.” The desire for his no! tion is general among these gentlemen, and ‘should his Dame be presented, there is but very little doubt it will receive a hearty and warm reception. The dele- gate from Caitfornia who gave his half for Chase yesterday was very quietly made to withdraw. on the next ballot, as it was thought he sounded the horn before his time. LETTER FROM MR. CHASE. Many of those who ap d to be best informed, and who were evident y friendly towards the Chief Justice, seemed to anticipate that that gentleman would address a letter. to the Convention ont Morning endorsing their platforas and dealing with other important mattera—such as express- ing his desire to carry out. their views and to form a cabinet in accordance with their wishes, Whether this surmise be correct or not this morning’s proceedings will easily prove it. It may be that wit! ge ds tes who believe in this may be too “the wish is father to the thought;” but etauid Mr. Chase write such an epistie it will but further confirm his chances of success; and then the radical leaders their standard and retire into the bosoms o! and new impeachment articles, and sing to the political memory of their malignant 1 poor Old Thad Stevens.

No new course of action, as far as could pe learned, has been mapped out, and the impression was received that the tactics ‘as originally adopted for the conduct of the delegation had been most suc- cessful in their applicgtion and would be continued to the denweument. e conversation between the delegates was carried on mostly in private groups, and nothing could be learned of their feelings re- specting the different candidates, THE PENNSYLVANIA DELEGATION will support Hancock while there is a chance of his receiving the nomination and after that is passed? “Why, we will have to take ap a new man,” said one of the members. THE KEYSTONE CLUB ON THE RAMPAGE. Yesterday evening the members of the Keystone Club, of rennsylvania, turned out in force, accom- panied by @ magnificent brass band, and made the rounds of the principal hotels and newspaper offices. Tn addition to a number of pantie the too the club exhibited a large placard beart inscription— “We have matched him! Major” General Hancock for President. Give us Hancock and we will mone Pennsyivania thirty thousand majority!” moustration Was not received with wild enthusiasm. A DRAMATIC SCENE. Mr. Richardson, Chairman of the Illinois delega- tion, immortaiized himself yesterday. He is a re: markable and irrepresmble youth with PB dh eyes, yery red face, gray scrubby whiskers and very perspiting features severally. The sieeves of his lipeu duster bore a zel pattern from the effects of intense perspiration, every wrinkle in the sleeve being marked line of cutaneous exudi- tion, and the back of the same ent bore across it similar evidence of his excited physical condition, He arose towgrds the end of the to explain ww the Illinois dele- ke to pieces, one part going for vt Pendieton.
