81. n LOULS-TILDEN THE CANDE
0''.. ''H DATE.

It was on the second ballot that Mr..
Tilden was nominated as the Demo
cratic candidate for President at st.
Louis last night The first ballot had
given him majority Of nearly one hun
dred over the combined vote of the other
five nominees; and on the second ballot,
after there had been number of
changes in his favor, his vote was thirty
nine ahead of the requisite two-thirds
majority. The result cotresponded al
most precisely with that foreshadoWed
in the table of estimates published in
these columns on Tuesday last.
The balloting did not begin till after
eight O'Clock in the evening, and a very
short time snfiCed for its completion.
The New York adversaries of the sue
cessful candidate kept up their opposi-
ton till the last moment, and John
Kelly went even so far as to make q
speech against Mr.. Tilden after his NOM
ination; but all these efforts were not
only unavailing, but failed to produce
any effect whatever. e.-
There had been a severe struggle in
the Committee on Resolutions, which
lasted from Tuesday afternoon till yes
terday afternoon, over the financial
plank of the platform. But an agree
ment was brought about satisfactory to
all parties, and when the platform was
reported to the Convention it was adopt
ed by vote not far from unanimous.
The financial plank, as it stands, is at
least as satisfactory as that of the Re-
publican Convention. But, from first to
last, the watchword of the platform
which we should say was altogether too
long if it were not so full of pungent
truths--is Reform. In every paragraph
it demands reform-reform in every de-
partment of the Government and every
branch of the public service. This meets
the great public demand; and is the
fundamental necessity Of the times. @
w The st. Louis Convention did a good
days work when it gave us Samuel ].
Tilden as the Democratic reform candi-
date for President.-N. Y. Sun.

he brings all his talent skill and long experience.
1t will, therefore, not surprise those who are in
telligent enough to discern, that physician who
treats the diseases of one organ to the exclusion of
all others, must be superior to those who pretend

the human body On its prorer functions depends

SPEECH OF JOHN KELLY ENDOR
.r n SING THE TICKET.

When the vote was announced, Mr.
John Kelly, of New York, arose and
spoke as follows Mr.. Chairman and
Gentlemen of the Convention-There is
no man holding seatin this convention
who has worked more strenuously against
the nomination of Samuel j. Tilden than
myself. did it in the full belief that it
was impossible to carry the election with
an eastern candidate. gave my opin-
ion to this convention yesterday that this
nomination should have gone to the
Western States. The convention has de-
cided otherwise. I submit my opinion to
the decision of this convention (cheers),
and now that Mr.. Tilden is the candidate
of our party, / promise you and l tell
you that l am capable of working; Jap
plause) that there is no man in the con-
vention who will work harder for his
election than myself. In the conviction
that had upon this question, my mind
ran toward that eloquent, that honest,
that upright statesman ofIndiana. ZAP
plause.) heard him twenty years ago
In Congress. have watched his course
from that day to this. Is there an indi'
vidual in this whole country who can as
sail the purity of that mans character
(Cries of no one, and applause.) Since
the nominations of this convention have
been made, it becomes the duty OF every
Democrat in the country to use his best
endeavors and exertions to elect him.
(Applause.) l believe if that be done
there can be no doubt upon that ques-
ton. We should now bury all our opin-
ions (applause) that we entertain in IA
vor of the candidates who were presented
to this convention. Lot US now look to
the objective point, and that is, that if
perpetuated, all understood and easily

The question has been asked whether,
in case of Governor Hayes resigning be-.
fore thirty days previous to the, October
election, new election for Governor
would be necessary this year. Certainly
not. The Constitution, article 8, section
Is, provides that "in case Of the death,
impeachment, resignation, removal, or
other disability of the Governor, the
powers and duties Of. the office, for the
residue of the term, or until he shall be
acquitted, or the disability removed, shall
deyolve upon the Lieutenant Governor"
When Governor Hayes resigns, Lieuten-
ant Governor Young will will become
Governor until January, 1873.

A GREAT fallacy underlies and gives rise
to the delusion, that the prosperity of a
people depends upon the amount of cir
culating medium. The fallacy dictates
assertions that better times will be had
by an Increase of the currency, and that
the panic Of 1873 was caused by con-
traction Of the currency.
