The exciting scene of the day now
came on-lhe voting for Judge of the
Supreme Court. Ii would be the highth
of folly to deny that intense interest was
centered in this vote and that the excite
ment ran high. Joseph R. Swan of
Columbus, was named and VIM. Y.
Gholsoniof Cincinnati. On announcing
The vote it stood as follows: Gholson
pit, Swan 40 and Blank g. The NOM
inaiion of Gholson is one OF The best that
could be made. The location is right;
Hamilton county, by is size and the
amount of law business is entitled 10 one
of the five Judges. Besides Judge
Gholson is knownto be in the front rank
of lawyers, and his nomination will give
enthusiastic satisfaction 10 the South Yves,
part of the State, while, under all the
late excitement on the Reserve, his nom
~inailon will ensure him the full repnbli-
can vote ofihe North.
In this connection it may not be amiss
10 state that Judge Gholson is Mississip
plan, was a large slave hol Ter, but eman-
cipated all his slaves and came TO the
Free State of Ohio to rid himself OF
slavery and lis communicating a~ssocia-
tons.
On the second ballot for Auditor of
Stale, L. w. Tayler, of MdhOning, was
declared nominated, and the nomination
was confirmed by reclamation.
On the first ballot A. P. Stone, of
Franklin, The present incumbent, was
nominated as Treasurer OF State, which
by acclamation was made unanimous.
Among the names presented for Secre-
tary of State were the present Secretary,
A. P. Russell. of Clinton, John S. Herrick,
of Portage, Moses Kirby, of Wyandotte
The two latter, however Withdrew their
names, and Mr. Herrick moved that Mr..
Russell be nominated by reclamation -
This was done, aud the hearty UNANIMOUS
cheer showed that the present able Sec
reinry of State is appreciated for his hon
esty, f.ithfulness and courtesy.
Four ballots were taken for candidate
for BOARD of Public Works, resulting in
the choice Of John B. Gregory. of Sciolo.
The last office ballotted for was that of
Commissioner CT Common Schools, and
the cho.ce fell upon the present able and
faithful Observation-Disclosures Sinyih. of
Lucas. The compl meut of the re-nom
ina'ion was well deserved BY Mr.. Snyth,
who has served The Stale with unswerv.
ing devotion 10 the great and delicate in
terests committed 10 his hands.
The bdilo:ings were not concluded
until after eight o click in the evening,
and the delegates patiently stuck by 10
The end, finishing the baliotings, as they
began them, in the best spirirs, and with
a perfect confidence that their labors had
been well performed, and that Ohio, IN
The autumn, will endorce their labors by
elecling the candidates presented by the
Convention.
Hon. Mr.. Bingham, then from The
Committee on Resolutions, presented the
platform 10 which we refer with great
satisfaction and which carries with lis
own comments.
After the labors were concluded, vocif-
erous calls brought Tom Corwin TO The
stand, and after HIM, AIR. DENIM on, but
the ~lateness of The hour precludes any
synopsis of the speeches. As we write,
at len o'clock, the Armory where the
Convention was held, is jammed full of
enthusiastic Republicans who make the
welkin ring with their shon,s.
Meyer, in the history of political con
ytniions has there been one as fully at
tended as this. Every county in the
Stale is represented, aid all day long
threw its full voie. In this respect it is
in broad contrast 10 the thin and spiriiless
gathering of the Democrats, a few days
since, in The same hall. Adv one who
expected a turbulent scene has been
wofully disappointed, for the only dis
Iurbance has been from the enthusiasm
v hich found vent from time to time
The Republicans of Ohio have never, in
Convention, been in better spirits, and
never had a better prospect for a glorious
than to-day. Locofocoism has
stood aglasi al The frmuess, ~magnani-
nifty, and sacrifice of personal Prejudices
exhibited To-day. and their hopes that
late excit ne su cts would rend the Re-
publican parry, have been blasted. II
This Convention can be taken as an
augury, Ohio will roll Up Inc steepest
