The NEW YORK DEMOCRATIC CON.
VENTION.
The Reform Delegates Claiming TO be
Admitted

, ROCHESTER,, Oct 5.-Tbe convention was
called to order at ii a. m. Several members of
the reform delegation from New York made
vention, among them Tilden who said he did not
dare 60 home without lifting his voice in favor
OF hearing this delegation. He charged that the
concocted at midnight and sprung upon the con-
vention. He spent the silent watches of last
night to prevent these gentlemen from issuing
Tention voted to give the delegation hearing CON
Ottendorfer, the first speaker, said it was not
the purpose of the delegation to throw a brand
of disturbance in the convention, but was its
purpose to have in the convention a delegation
from New York which denounced and abhorred
the corruptions of Tammany Hall. He thought
the action OF the committee yesterday would re-
to prevent this his delegation asked a hearing.
Abram X. Lawrence was the next speaker.
he said the delegation came here with a view
of setting back the tide of condemnation which
was setting in against the party over the mis-
deeds of Tammany. The Tammsny delega-
tons came admitting there was a cloud hanging
over them: He sid If the delegation was adj

LETTER FROM CHARLES o'coNNoR,
which was, on motion, read. 1t says 80 New
YORK presents to mere personal greed a proms-
ing field for enterprise in many forms. Among
them the very convenient instrumentality of
legislative acts and administrative management
could have been overlooked. It has of late
been sedulously cultivated by selfish indi-
yiduals processing every variety OF public
opinion, and the parties which have alter
nately possessed the reins of power, as well as
the citizens who generally take little part with
either may be, probably, alike censured for
not devoting more attention to constitutional
safeguards by which the public interests might
have been efectually protected. All have been
more or less censurabie in a somewhat yeniaI
degree, and, as consequence, evils have grown
up. On framing the present constitution of this
State, the remedy for the supposed injustice was
magnanimously, but unwisely, conceded TO the
opposition, from which incalculable evils have
resulted. This is all OF the letter we received
before going to prcss.l
