THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

NEW YORK, May 18.-The Commercials dis
patch from Chicago says the New England and
nearly all the Western delegations have reach.
ed here, and avery large lobby from New Y rk
All State delegates so far arrived have held
caucuses and close personal consultations.
There is no question about the nomination of
Grant by reclamation. The chief interest turns
upon the nomination for the Vice Presidency.
A disposition is manifested to give the Vice
Presidency to Fenton, SO as to conoiliate that
STATE and win it hack from Democracy next
fall. There is division of opinion however,
among New York Republicans, and strong
opposition to his nomination from that State
has nlpped the Fenton movement, and the
New York delegates after casting him a COM
pllmentary vote will take up a stronger man.
Mr.. Colfaxs chances are increasing In conse-
quence OF the result of impeachment, which
has demoralized the supporters of Mr. Wade.
The contest will probably rest between him
and Mr.. Wilson. The views of Gen. Sickles
are anxiously looked for as representing the
latest conclusions of party managers at WASH
lngton. Gen. Sickles will probably be chosen
chairman of the convention. The feeling in
relation to the Presidents acquittal Is very bit
ter, and the acquitting Republican Senators
severely denounced. The more cautious Re-.
publicans are trying to prevent the adoption of
any impeachment plank in the platfol M, which
is being urged by the radicals.
Second Dispatch.-A special TO the CONNER
oial Advertiser from Chicago says:
sooa ho "p'onuancc Is rdpluly increasing. over
5000 strangers have arrived since this morning
The contest for the Vice Presidency is increas-
ing and is the absorbing topic. Candidates are
also increasing. On the first ballot the contest
will be between Coliax, Wilson, Hamlin and
Wade, o. G.. Van Zandt, of Rhode Island,
has the best chance for permanent President
OF the convention. Gen. Sickles, who had the
inside track, has withdrawn and will preside
over the soldiers convention Tomorrow. There
is great deal of discussion as to the proprie.
ty of passing resolutions to exeommunicate
the Republican Senators who voted to acquit
the President, but the more prudent counsels
will probably prevail.

NEWS FROM DEMOCRATIC SOURCES.
New YORK, May 1S-A Washington special
says there is a scheme to pass impeachment by
votes of Senators to be admitted from South
