Correspondents of the Ohio statesman.l


Everybody of the political schools,
whether Democrat or Radical, looks for
ward to the morrow with all-absorbing
interest. The Convention is the one great
object. The delegates have nearly all ar
rived. From the East, the West, the North,
the South, these representative men come.
to sit down in fraternal council under the
friendly shadows of st. Tammany. They
are warmly received by their brethren here.
The Pendleton Escort from Cincinnati
406 men, attracted great atten-
tion yesterday as in column, with flags
flying and with music, they marched up
Broadway. Each one connected with the
Escort had suggestive badge, having the
appearance of a So greenback printed on
silk, bearing the words: "The people de-
mand of the United States payment OF the
bonds in greenbacks. and equal taxation.
One currency for ALL" This was affixed to
the coat by a small silver clasp, ON which
was engraved "Pendleton, Cincinnati" :"
In the evening the Pendleton Club of Gin
cinnati, numbering about 400, arrived by
the Erie road. This evening the Demo-
cratic Empire Club, Captain Rynders, Pres
ihent, and their auxiliaries will escort the
Young Mems Democratic keystone Club
and the Americus Club, OF Philadelphia,
to their headquarters. Many of the dele
gates and other good friends of the cause
visited the new Tammany Hall yesterday,
where the Convention is to be held. All
were delighted with the preparations made,
The beautiful hall Is ornamented in the
national flags are used in the decorations.
In the afternoon Grafulla's Seventh Regi-
ment Band of 30 pieces took possession of
the platform add discoursed sweet music
to large crowd of elegantly dressed ladies
and gentlemen. "The Star Spangled Ban
ner,n Hail Columbia" selections from
al 'Africaine," Ernani," "Grand Ouch
esse," &c., were given with fine effect.
A mass meeting will be held this evening
under the auspices of the Metropolitan
Democratic Club. Hon. Montgomery Biair,
Col. E. NJ. Yerger, of Mississippi, Gen.
Black, of Illinois, Hon. Henry Clay Dean,
of Iowa, Hon. Stilson Hutchins, Of Mis-
souri,, Hon.J. H. Murphy, of Iowa, Hon.
w. w. O'Brien, OF Illinois, Hon. J. 81. o.
Neil. of Iowa, and the Hon. Robert S. Nc
Donald, of Missouri, have been invited to
make addresses.
The National committee held meeting
yesterday, and confirmed the appointment
of Mr.. E. A. Moore as Sergeant-at-Arms,
he having previously been selected for that
office by the Executive committee, and
some of the ordinary prelimi-
nary business of the Convention. When
this National committee was appointed in
1864, none of the Southern States were
but before proceeding to busi-
ness Yesterday, the COMMITTEES added to its
number one from each of the Southern
States, who had been designated by the
delegation from those States.
Some of the delegations perfected their
yesterday. Others will meet
to day.
And now as to the candidate. The World
says: yesterday was very busy day, and
with the friends of Pendleton
being very confident of his nomination, so

on the result. A casual glance at the field
gives them some show for this confidence,
which closer scrutiny will not bear out"
The Radical Tribune says: "A careful fig
lring of the votes has satisfied Pendleton's
friends that out of 632 votes in the Conyen-
ion, Pendleton will receive 334 on the first
formal ballot, and that If the Pennsylvania
delegation finally conclude to 60 for Pen
lleton he will receive 1856 votes on that bal
ot. From certain indications made yester-
lay it is believed the delegations from the
Keystone State will cast their votes for
9endleton, thus rendering his nomination
almost a certainty. Assurances have been
made that as soon as Pendleton shows a
majority of delegates in his favor the Con-
'ention will at once proceed to make his
nomination unanimous by acclamation."
Che same journal says !" An Indiana gen.
leman just from Washington reports that
le saw Mr.. Hendricks yesterday, and in
with him learned that the
senator is perfectly willing to have his
lame proposed in the Convention, provided
he delegates find that Pendleton has no
nance" Governor Seymour is probably
he first choice of the delegates from this
ity, but he has strongly pronounced
gainst the use of his name. He may, how
ver, consent. Next to Governor Seymour,
chief Justice Chase will have strong sup
,ort here. An effort will be made to get
Mayor Hoffman upon the ticket for the
7ice Presidency, provided the candidate
or the Presidency comes from some other
,tate.
Although there is uncertainty as to the
andidates chosen, the Convention will act
and the hopes Of the Jaco-
IONS OF discord or even of disruption, will
ome to naught. The Convention will
move bravely on to its self-appointed work,
nd make united and determined effort
