At 3:30 o’clock Chandler, of Missis- “gpl, moved that the convention e a recess until 7 o'clock in the eniag.

Florida gave her eight votes for Grant, the first solid vote. [Applause.] Chairman Hoar announced that he would clear the galleries if thero were any more demonstrations. In Indiana Sherman gained one from Washburne, and in Maryland he gained one from Washburne and ove from Grant. New York stuck to the old score—Grant 50, Blaine 18, Sher- man 2. In Pennsglvania Blane and Washburne each lost a vote, which went to Garfield and Hortranft. In Virginia Sherman gained a véte from Blaive and another from Graot. In all Sherman gained five; Bhice lost threeand Washburne three. Blaine touched the loweet point sq for, get- ting but 279 votes, on the twentieth ballot. Grant's first gain was one from Blaine in Georgis, the vote standiog seven for each of them snd eight for Sherman, as sgamst six for Grant heretofore. In Iudiana Blaine lost thres votes, which went to Wash- burne. North Carolina gave Sherman fourteen and Grant six, a gain of one for Grant. In Tennessee Grant gained another vote from Blaine, and a third in Virginia from Shermsn. When Washington territory wss called, the vote was announced solid for Bliino Chairman Hoar ordered the rcll called again, and the delegate,in a very loud voico, anpounced—two solid votes for Blaine. Haread that anyone adding any remarks to the au- nouncement of voteswes out of order, and coming from a member of the conventivn tended especislly to create a disturbance. [Applausel] Blaino's total in the vote went. taree votes lower—to 276-—and there were wild cheers for Grant, whoso vote was 308. To the twenty-first ballot North Carolina shified back frrm Grant six and Sherman fourte:n to Grant five and Sherman fifteen. This change had been made so mavy times that it had become monotonous and was re- ceived with silence. It was evident that some one in the delegation wes moving backward and forward with everysuccessive vote. Sherman gained one in Virginia from Blaive, and gained Grant's vote in the Distrlct of Columbia. The first change in the twenty-sec- ond ballot was another from Sherman to Grant in Florida. Nerth Carolina swang back to Graut 14. Duiing the roll-call Garfield left his seat in the Ohio delegation, in the centre of the hall, and went down to the front, where Conkling eat at the head of the New York delegation. He leaned over the back of Conkling’s chair and conversed with him earuestly for at least five minutes. Conkling did not appear to be exactly indifferent, but was_coldly polite, and when Garfi=ld finally left, bowed his head in his usually haughty manner. Blaine's vote fell off again, and wa3 275; Grant's remained at 305 and Sherman's was the highest yet. The other ballots patsed with few charges, and adjournment was taken. WHO WANTED T0 ADJOURN. ‘The anti-Grant men were anxious to adjourn in order to gain time. The votes of the states on adjournment waesignificaut as indizating the candi- datcs whose_managers wero working for time. Blaine, Washburne and Sherman votes were almost solidly in favor of the motion. Grant's votes were all against it. The states voting in the negative were: Arkaneas, Florida, linois, Kentucky, Missouri, New York, Peunsylvania, Tenneseco and the Grant delegations from the divided southern states. Those in the affirmative were: California, Georgia, Indiana, Towa, Maine, Massachusetts, Mickigan, Mississippi, North Caro- lina, Ohio, New Jersey, New Hamp- shire, Rhode Island, Virmont and such of the southern states whoso votes have been usually againat Grant. The plan of the Grant men has been to tire out their opponents by _indefi- nite balloting, or to force them to compromise on a candidate. The adjournment was brought about in hopes that the evening and night ‘might enable the anti-Grant leaders to agres amongst themselves to support unitedly some one of their cwn candi- dates. - CONCRESSIONAL.

Sheep — Receipts, Insanity Among Farmers. A careful examination of the last nual reports of the Asylums for the Tncane, shows alarge propertion of their inmates who come from farming sections. * The fict hes beeun noticed in the reports of other ycars, though itis ayyareutly mysterious and quite opposite to the ide u\uully associa- tod with country life. A solution of it may be found in the comparatively sacluded life of many of our farmers. They need mnot necceseatily be her- mits, but it is ofien that they gradual- ly becoms eo by neglectivg tueir ‘means of sociability within their reach, thinking continually of their crpps and brooding over imgiary losses. Man is a gregarious_being, and re- quires to have his social feelings gra- tified. If deprived of ud- pleasure, he becomes morviso or eccentrie. Thiy may be verificd by S et with rural districts, for it luflun in such places that “odd characters” are found. Now, eccentricity is but one remove from insanity, and often ter- minates in it. If this view cf the cave is correct, the life of the farmer, how ever conducive to physical health, is not the most able for the harmo- nious play of the intellectral and mo- ral faculties. There is an instioct in human na- ture, which decla great truth— the necessity of compar proper deveiopement of man. Eveij- body, as is well known, shr.eks froma reserved, sullen and morose person. Everybody is pleased with frank and sociable mauners. Thus the great law of naturs, speaking in the com- mon heart of humanity, preclaims that man was_created for the companion- ship of his fellow. And thus in the case of the violated law, nature aven- ges herself. What, then, 1s the remedy for the evil in question!

This is explained by the fact that Hoar recetved a dispatcn from Wash- ington stating that Secretary Sherman and Senator Blaine were in conference there, and that they desired their frierds here to combine and secure an adjournment uotil to-day, in order that a decision might be reached be- tween Blaine and Sherman, which, if it did not secure the selection of one or the other, would probably insurs the defeat of Graat.

HOW TO BEAT GRANT. Ex-Licutenant-Governor Grosvencr, of Ohio, 3 member of the Ohio delega- tion, and an_ardent Sherman man, said last night: ‘It is absolutely es- sen that we find some man whocan make an ivroad on Grant's strength. Unless we can do so I am convinced that Grant will be the nomivee, aad I confess I do not yetseea man.
