New YORK July / The committee APP
pointed by the St. Louis convention to notify
Governor Tildeu of his nomination TO the
presidency by the Democratic party waited
on the governor tonight at his residence
Delegates from nearly every state in the union
were present The governor gave the com
mittee cordial greeting General McCler-
nand addressed the governor, and outlined
the work OF the St Louis convention. II
was august in Character, patriotic in senti-
ment, and met at a time when civil authority
was exposed to fresh encroachmenis from the
military, when hard money WAS dishonored
and virtually hanished from circulation by
vicious legislation, when pecnlation and cor
ruption were sapping the foundation Of the
government The convention determined 10
save the country, and chose for lis standard
hearers tried true aud trusted men. General
McClernand Then read the address of the com
mittee conveying the official information Of
his nomination to Governor Tilden. 1t stated
that he was nominated because his name was
prominently identified with reform, reduction
of taxation and the maintenance of the rights
of the laboring masses, and his record is one
of untarnished purity in the eyes of his
country.
Hon. W. B. Hanna, of Indiana, also de-
livered lengthy address 10 the governor on
behalf Of the Democratic party of Indiana
and pledging him their united and entire
support.
Governor Tildcn replied, accepting the
nomination and said he would soon transmit
Them formal letter of acceptance. He said
he believed his nomination was not a mere
personal preference between citizens and
statesmen but rather declaration III favor of
administrative reform with which events had
associated him in ;he public mind. Demand
for reform in all governments and chiefly in
the feoeral government have led to n series Of
surprises in popular assemblageS, and peA.
haps in the convention itself What we have
witnessed may be an augury of what we may
witness in the election about TO take place -
The labor of reforming a system of govern
ment is great, and it elected ! should enter
upon the great duties not as on holiday
recreation but much in thai spirit Of conse-
creation in which soldier enters battle. We
now see the dawn OF better day for our
country. The republic is yet TO he renovated
to live in all future. Governor Tilden wound
mp by cordially thanking The committee, after
which a collation. WIS en- !uyed.

the disabled were carried twenty miles TO the

Cen Gibbons cavalry followed The Indians
for about ten miles, and ascertained that they
had moved to The south and west by several
trails. A good deal of property had been
thrown away by Them to tighten their march,
and was found scattered for many miles over
the prairie. Many of their dead were also
discovered secreted in ravines a long distance
from the battle field. Among them were
Arapahoes and Cheyennes as well as Sioux.

Republican special from Springfield
Illinois, says ex-Solicitor of the Treasury
Department Buford Wilson, whose resgna-
ton took effect July /, arrived to-day in that
city He says he gave the order dismissing
William B. Moore, the "wounded soldier"
which removal caused Yaryan's decapltation,
and that he did so because Moore had been put
ting up job on Yaryan. Moore was adjutant
of the Second Illinois cavalry, but the adju-
tant generals reports make no mention of bis
having been wounded. 1t is understood that
during the Babcock trial he was in ST. Louis
ready TO swear that he was in Washington
when Babcock received one of the letters from
Joyce, in which Everest testified he had seen
$500 bill was placed, and that when Bah
cock received the letter it contained only blank
paper, but as Magill swore he removed this
letter from the lamp-post box before it had
been sent off, Moore's valuable evidence was
not called for.

A W ashington Murderess.

A negro woman named Georgiana Turpin,
who killed her husband in Washington on

came. The woman says he seized a short

blow, and when he dropped the axe she seized
it. He struck her on the head and she re-
piled with IL blow of the axe that ieled him
TO the floor. He seemed unable to rise and
groaned as if in much pain, bnt she alleges he
still continued to threaten her, saying, "wait
till get up, Ill.kil you and hang for you"
He never did get up, but groancd awhile and
then died. She admits that on finding he was
dead she cut up The body and secreted it,

Charles Francis Adams, before the St. Louis
nominations were made, said that Mr.. Tilden
has shown himself reformer, and bias in
CURED active opposition in his party; that if
nominated for the presidency he would have
to encounter the opposition of corrupt men,
but that he would prove a powerful candi-
date, rs he would receive large but quiet
support of the independent voters. The en-
thusastc reception which the nomination
has met shows that Mr.. Adams was quite
right in saying that Mr. Tilden will be a
powerful candidate
