ST. LOUIS, June 40, 1876.
Eatt0r Dem0crat-At 10 40 to-day the
lhbors OF the National Democratic Oon-
vention terminated, aud an ndiournm ment
sine dte followed. Though at the close
everything was harmony, there were
many adverse viows and some bitter
feuds that required the best efforts Of.
the best men to conciliate when the del
| egate5 lrst came together. Tammany
opposed Tilden vigorously aud it's rep
resehtntlyes were curly In the field, but
when the unanimity OF the sentiments In
Illden . favor became evident they nc
| Iqulesced with such grace as they could
ana VIII now give him something more
than lukewarm support. The accept.

Inc juggling tricksters who cDntended
Mt Cincinnati for the first place ON the
hadical ticket thought ii beneath their
dignity 10 accept nomination for an
ounce that has been filed by some Of
the abiest and purest Of American
patriots.
There has not been, for two decades Of
years, National Convention that called
forth such a hearty feeling OF good will
among both parties and all classes of
people as that which has i1st met. On
every block one can meet weli.known
Republicans who say "It il u good
ticket and will get my support" The
Gerlnan voters OF the country will now
divide their strength with every proba.
biIty OF Tilden receiving the great buik
OF that vote. The general depression Of
every Industry has had It's natural in
iluence upon the honest Teuton, and he
signs for something OF the prosperity
mat lured him from his fatherland
u score OF years ago, The tide
Of emigration has also now
turned the other way, many returning
% make their bread aud butter with less
sxertlon in the lind OF their nativity.
Thinking Republicans, too, have at
ast, through suffering, learned that 1t
IS impossible to sacrifice the interests Of
my section without having the cTects
u the injustice to recoll apon It's authors,
Hayes, they say, lis man' Of unex-
'eptionable character and presumably
honest, but ii elected he would only
prove part Of the same machine that

uncomfortable. Republicans are n,I-
nerous who will vote the ticket nomi-
'ated here, and | have accidentally met
nd talked with dozen such In the last
wenty-four hours.
Tilden and Hendricks will carry Rev
(ork, Connecticut, and New Jersey:
'robably Indiana, and California. and

inning with Illinois aud ending with
Massachusetts,, and such other chosen
elds of Radicalism.
St. Louis has never borne such an air
I festiyity, or seemed to be 50 radiant
". 0verilowingly good natured For
llles the streets are masses OF bunting
nd small ilags and other decorations.

ranching chandeliers, each having d

esterday evening when the assemblage
n the streets were full OF the great
vent, and wild with enthusiasm over
le nomination Of TildeD, the econe was
le most brilliant ever witnessed In the
vest. The thov9ands on the sidewalks
ere too thickly crowded for comfort.
nd this not for few blocks, but over
10 whole area Of the streets in the main
art Of the city. The brilliant illumina-
on, the lavish display Of the flags
all nations, the profuse decoration OF
l kinds, the fireworks from the dome
the courthouse and the boundless
'od humor Of a half million people
emed ut accompaniment OF an event
lat marks a new political era. Louisi-
IA has everything to hope for In this
'ent, the first scene In line Of such,
at will make her one OF ssterhood
stead OF the agonized slave Of set OF
satiate harpies. B.
