Mr. WILLIAMS, of Dutchess, said that if this was the result of the labors of this committee, if this was their insight, then this liberal republican party may as well dissolve. He did not think a single delegate here could go back to his constituents, after adopting this report, and Joasiy himself, He moved that the report be recommitted, with in- structions to ask that the Licutenant Governor and Inspeetor of State Prisons be accorded to the liberal republican party. Mr. PisLeY, of Oneida, sustained the motion. He said he believed that if this Convention asked for two places on the State ticket the Democratic Convention would accede. He asked why it was that this report, that had been once voted down in the other Convention, was now again presented by tue Conference Committee? He called upon the Convention to vote down this report, and assured them they would get it.

When the President makes that dec- aration and throws himself upon the country he says what? Why, he says tho policy with which the South has been governed for three years past—by military force, by carpet-bag government, by the suspension of thé habeas corpus, by the power of the bayonet law—will be the policy by which it shall be governed for four years longer, " I means, “I have fastened my “rela- tions ‘upon the ' Treasury, and the ‘country shall support them as "long as I remain!"?

Why, gentlemen, up {n Maine I heard Hannibal Hamlin’ and James Blaine and men of that character and of national reputation telling the republican party that, if Horace Greeley was elected, they might anticipate another civil war and the payment of tho great burden of tho rebel debt; forgetting that, if such a thing was possl- fo) it was in direct contravention of what Horace Gree- e Th ulted the Intelligence of thelr ppreclated what itx Intelll- nilemen of the Gonvention, or else they best Caughter.)

Mr. Creamer moved that tho rt be recommitted, with ictions to re- e Congressman at Large. Mr. Morton, of New York, showed how by trick Messra. Cox and Brooks had been placed in the same district, 80 as to throw them out of Congress. If we agree to this proposition we give coun- tenance to this wrong. He hoped New York city Would have this Congressman conceded to it as an act of justice. ‘THE DISCUSSION GROWING HOTTER. Mr. Beacu, of Queens, claimed that Mr. Creamer’s motion was not germane. He was for the broadest hearing, and would refer back, that no man could that he had not veon heard in that conference. TILDEN said it was not his fault if Mr. Kelly was not fully heard; ke had himself invited him up. The conference was had with the other com- amittee from half-past four to seven o'clock, and as of the committee were present as could be Gol together. He id not know if Mr. Dorshelmer could accept the nomination for Lieutenant Governor. If they had given the Uberals the Lieutenant .Governor then all the candidates for that office would have felt outraged. ‘The liberals at first wanted both offices; but when one only was conceded they had chosen the Con- gressman at ge. Let the Convention, if it chose, refer back and goon nominating the officers con™ | ceded to them, such as Governor and Canal Com- missioner. . Mr. De Wirr condemned the manner in which the Conference Committee was formed, It was a slight the temporary chairman for Mr, Tilden to dic- te who should De on such committee. It was out of taste; but it did not atop even at this point of audacity, Two of the committeemen wore elected who are not members of the Convention. It was rather late, after such startling facts as these, to say it wi isagreeable for these gentlemen to serve on puch fouatie, He was sicl of a leadership at attempted to absorb all the power of the Con- ving away vention, He severely denounced the ork in Con- ofa part of the representation of New iran when Oy @ part of the committee were pre- ent, ‘He held the chairman of the State Commit- tee responsible. cieiadien, 6. aimee anes se , BULLY FOR Cox, nae Mr, KELLY did not complain of the act of Mr. Til- den in any way; it was merely an inadvertence, Other business drew him (Mr. Kelly) from the Meeting of the Conference Committee. He culo- ‘ized the Congressional services of Mr. Cox; he sat y Genaren with him eighteen years ago and watched his course there. No man was then more faithful to the democratic party. With the great experience he had he should be retained. It was due to New York Mr. APGaR, of Tompkins, feared that this discus- sion had already assumed too great a latitude, Ho favored the original métion, but opposed the amendment, It would be lacking in courtesy to the Liberal Convention to send the committee with poaeeans to insist upon any particular nomina- jon. Mr. KINSELLA, of Kings, thought the trouble arose from the manner of the formation of the committee, two members not being members of the Convention, which was unparliamentary in the beginning, He'had charity for the report because it was without friends, He favored making a new committee, LDEN EXPLAINING. Mr, Trupen said it was due to him to make an ex- lanation, The committee originated in the State entral Committee. He did not himself propose a single name, He made the woanestion, Fegarding the appointment of the committee by the request of the State Committee. He was asked to the list to the Chairman of the Convention, but he declined, as it would look like packing, He had never assumed dictatorial airs in this or any other Convention. He believed the insults of the gen- tleman from Kings had no sympathy from the Con- vention. (Applause.) The State Committee had overruled hia, They were the men who had packed the Conference Committee, not he. Mr. KINSELLA interrupted Mr. ‘Hilden to say that the representative of the State Committee from his district substantiated all he said. Mr. TILDEN said he never had, and by the bless- ing of God never would, pack anything. (Ap- plays) Having discharged his whole duty in the atter he should decline to serve further on the Conference Committee. mr, MOAK, of Albany, was aware that the city of New York had important interests at stake. He spoke ofthe importance to the State of the Lieu- tenant Governor, who heads the Canal Board and nearly all the important commissions. He was as- sured that the men in the other hall were honest; they had burned their ships and must go: with us or sink; he was assured that they would go with usin the future in behalf of the country and the democracy ; he asked that they have some recogn!- tion in the Canal Board; he defended the Confer- ence Committee's report. It was Mr. Kelly’s fault that he did not meet with the committee. Mr. KELLY said he never had and never would ask to be put on a committee. Mr, WALRatH, Of Madison, moved the appoint- ment of another committee, and that Mr. Tilden be & member thereof, The Curr decided that the motion was out of order. “ORDER,!! GENTREMEN. Mr. Luprvaton said that tt eNned to him there as a spirit abroad that was sot likely to produce the utmost harmony. He aprece with the gentle- man from Albany that the State of New York was elas in the office of Lieutenant Governor. He thought the liberals had asked very little. He had confidence in the sort of a man for Congress the liberals would select, It had been waid by the Chair that the young men of the party were coming to the front—granted ; but the old men of the party must be treated with the respect due to gray hair. (Applate.) He would endorse the report of the committee and ené the matter now. r. FAULKNER rose to & question of privilege. His name had been brought into this debate. He knew that the Chairman of the State Committee in gregeating names of members of the Conference ommittee had intended no disrespect to himself as Chairman of the Convention. If he had, then he is sufficiently punished therefor. Free trade and tariif were no issue in the democratic party, and never had been. Even if it were so, Dorsheimer was as able an advocate of free trade as Cox. Mr. MaGEE, of Schuyler, explained how the State Committoe came to make the Conference Commit- tee. He declared that Mr. Tilden acted only as an agent in suggesting the names. ir, TILDEN oifered as a Substitute for the pend- ing motions, resoltitions for the appointment of a new Conference Committee of one from each Judl- cial district. The resolutions were adopted amid applause. A recess of ten minutes was then taken, to allow delegates to select their committeemen. nile following were chosen as a Conference Com- mittee :— and First D's'r rge W. Morton.

Mr. Apgar yielded the floor at the solicitation of the Chair to hear from Mr. Arthur 0, Butts, a dele- gate from the Liberal Convention. Mr. BUTTS said he came to learn offelally the ac- tion of the Convention on the report ef the Confer- ence Committee, ‘The CHAIRMAN, In response, stated that a new committee had been appointed to confer with the Libera} committee. Mr. Apgar then continued in favor of his reso- tiol Mr. FARWELL, of Niagara, supported the resain- tion at length.

KINSELLA paid a high culogy to Mr. Cox, but said he ‘opposed the reopening. of this question, which mig t lead to lengthy debate. He move the adoption of the report. Mr. Fox showed how the districts of New York had been gerrymandered, He could not support the adoption of the report, when it sacrificed so able a representative as Samuel 8. Cox.. Mr. FAULKNER advocated the report of the com- mittee at considerable length. He sald this was ae jaaly, basis on which they could agree with the Mr, ArGaR sald the liberals had asked precisely what he proposed to give them, viz:—Licutenant Governor and State Prison Inspector, He regret- ted exceedingly, in this crisis, to see this small spirit of partisanship, which should say that, as democrats, “We should claim this or we should claim that.” (Loud applause.) Mr. Apgst moved the previous question on his motion, which4 #« | carried, and the main question was orderea, “""* ‘The Onam stated the main question to be on non-concurring with the Conference Committee's report, and with the Convention signifying to the liberals a willingness to give them Licatenant Goy- ernor and State Prisan Inspector. TILDEN DEFEATED, The roll was called and Mr. Apgar’s’ motion adopted—yeas 74, pays. 5%. Loud applause greeted the announcement of the result. The Cuatr eppointed as a committee to announce the action of the Liberal Convention Messrs, Apgar, Sf Fomine Russell, of Ulster, and Tilden, of New Mr. Tilden declined, and D. B. Hill, of Chemung, was appointed in his place. : A recess of ten minutes was taken to enable the Committee on Resolutions to agree on resolutions, On being again called to order the CnAIRMAN announced @ committee from the Liberal Repubil- The Convention received the committee rising and with loud cheers. OOCHRANE’S SPEECH, Mr. CogHRANS said:— MR. PRESIDENT AND GENTLEMEN OF THE CONVENTION— My associates and mysclf—a committee of three—have been appointed to wait upon your Convention to inform ‘ou of the reception of your magnanimous offer by the ineral Republican Convention. (Applause) Your com- mittee found our Convention in the midst of a discussion tending yery much to the point at which, it seems, y Convention’ had arrived. ‘The announcement ot’ your proposition was received with an explosion of cheers and ceclamations= (applaase)—and immediately, inthe spirit in which it wag conceived and the cotrtesy which tendered It, our Convention arose, and we are here as the Fepresentatives of its actlon—a ¢ommlttes to tender to Jou our warmest thanks, our cordial co-operation. and to inform you that we accept your offer. Pi rremendous ap- lause.) BALLOT FOR GOVERNOR. Mr. CREAMER moved to take a ballot for Gov- ernor. Mr. DeWrrr, of Kings, after a somewhat lengthy speech, nominated Sanford E. Church. (Immense applause.) Mr. DeWitt said if the Convention tender the nomination Judge Church there is not a shadow of doubt that he wil] accept it. Mr. Farwa tt, of Ni ra, had too much respect for Sanford E. Church to assume that he was play- pa Stee, the part of & trickster or a deceiver. Only two days he had insisted.that he would not be a candidate. He didn’t believe him capable ofasham. A-name distinguished as any other in the State is that of Francis Kernan. (Loud ap- Plause.), Mr. KELLY, of New York, eee Augustus (Applause. Schell, of New York. 5 Mr. Haskin, of Steuben, seconded the nomina- tion of Francis Kernan, of Oneids. Mr. HILL, of Chemung, nominated Lucius Robin- Mr. CORNWALL, of Jefferson, nominated Allen C. Beaoh, of Jefferson. fen FAULKNER seconded the nomination of Mr. ach. KERNAN’S EULOGIUM. Mr, Spricas, of Oneida, was pleased to hear the ee from Niagara nominate Francis Kernan ; hat was the county of his birth—Oneida was the county of his adoption. It was, he sald, at Judge Church’s suggestion that Mr. Kernan ‘became a candidate. Judge Church wrote to Mr. Kernan requesting him tobe a candidate, and Judge Church was the first man to whom Kernan said, if it was the wish of his friends he would, under circam- stances, accept. No man would question Mr. Kernan’s honesty or ability, He was the peer of Judge Church or any man. He did not believe any man in the Convention had any right to say Judge Church would be @ candidate. He did not believe that Judge Church was nominated in good faith; only, perhaps, that some other power, he declining, woild then bé enabled to make the nomination, Mr. DE Wirt said it was a strange fact that, of all the men in this Convention, no one was here to say that Judge Church will deciine the nomination, ex- cept the most ardent supporters of a rival candi- date. He nominated Judge Church, with the firm conviction that he would, if nominated, accept, Mr, FARWELL wanted to know by what authority this statement was made. There is no letter here from Judge Church saying he will accept; yet the (ie from Kings says he feels intuitively that ie will accept. We have candidates here who we know will accept. Mr. GUERNSEY, of Dutchess, nominated Homer A. Nelson, of Dutchess. Mr. TiLDEN moved that the roll be called and that each delegate, as his name was called, rise and name his choice for Governor, Carried. The first ballot resulted as follows K.ernai 10 Beach. i Schell, 6 Sta Convention then proceeded to the second allot. The second ballot showed a largely increased vote for Kernan, whereupon the delegates In rapid succession changed their votes. Mr, Kinsella cl een the vote of Kings county, which nominated Mr. Kernan, Mr. Jonrs, of Steuben, as a delegate from the county which was the birthplace of Kernan, aud as one who had cast his two ballots against him, with great pleasure moved to make the nomination unanimous. Carrled—the whole Convention rising and wildly cheering. A LETTER FROM CLARKSON POTTER. Judge Cochran, of Westchester, wished to put on record the reasons why his delegation had not yoted for the Hon. Clarkson N, Potter, as they were instructed.
