ALLEN NAMED-THE WORK COMPLETED ON THE
SECOND BALLOT.
IBY TELEGRAM To TIE TRIBUEg.l
ST. LOUIS, June 2S-The platform once con-
structcd the artificers of delay at tho end of
their devices. There was nothing now left to do
except to name and to nominate. The Secretary
read the rule under which nominations were to DO
made and called the State Of Alabama. Alabama
had no candidate, nor had Arkansas. Delaware was
the first to respond. Ex-Congres5man whitley
proposed the name of Thomas Francis Bayard,
which drew out enthusiastic plardts. Illinois
allowed its name to be called in silence, and yet
David Davis was candidate. Indiana came next,
and the Hooser yelling broke out. 1t was the
Morton yell of Cincinnati over again, shifted
in longitude but undimiuishcd in volume
and intensity. Gen. Williams OF Indiana
proposed the name Of Gov. Hendricks, end VI. w.
Fuller of Illinois seconded it, and Gen. A. W. Camp
bell Of Tennessee further seconded IT, each ronsinY
the genuine enthusiasm winch the followers Of Hen
dricks always show When these speakers had
ceased their praises there was a curious slip of en-
| thusiasm. A typographical blunder on the lists
put New-Yorll before Now-Jer7cy. and when the ear
of the Convention had set itself TO hoar euloes OF
Joel Parker the clerk called New-York. There was
great burst Of cheering that renewed itself again
and again. half of the Convention being on it5 feet
shouting and cheering, the galleries echonS every
cheer with interest. Then it was found TO bo all
mistake, il was New-Jcrsey's turn. Lon Albeit
proceeded to present the name OF Joel Parker IN an
ncislvc speech, III which he reminded Pennsyvania
that Joel Parker troops to her when the territory
| of that State was invaded. Some one called out,
Parker ld SEYMOUR "Yes, )" said AbbeitGuckly,
but Parker had his troops in the streets OF Phla-
dclphia 4s hours after he got the call from Curtn
The point told, though the mere mention of Sey-
| mour's name had reused a storm O. applause.
THEY 60 WILD OVER 1ILDEN
! When Senator Herman appeared o. tie platform
to present the name of Gov. Tildcn, hr Ind warm
reception first for himself and then for the man he
was to nominate. The first emphatic point he made
was when lie called the Republican party the party
| which had promised reform, and Gov. llldcn the
| man who had done the reform. He traced Gov.
! Tilden's record in breaking up the Tanmd-y and
! Canal rings and in reducing taxes. lie urged the
| Convention to nominate the man who wonld do in
Washington what he had done in Ncw-fork.
When Mr. Herman closed, John Kelly, hot and
flushed stepped forward at the side OF the Ficsi-
dents chair and great storm of Kisses tel on nm
Hi friends met it with cheers anl applause but
the Kisses rose highest. lie had hardly spoken LIS

rose to second Gov. Tilden's nomination, and
brought out another storm of Kisses and applause

might be heard. Smith Weed made this appeal on
bohalf Of the New-Yorl delegation without avail
and the pandcmonium went on. IL was not ann!
Senator Herman himself pushed forward and begged
in behalf of the friends Of Gov liiden
that Mr.. Kelly might be heard that he
was heard. lie had an excellent hearing
when he announced himself for Hendricks but The
temper Of tue crowd at time let him get through
a sentence without dcrsiye cries and hisses. His
announcement that IL delegates in the New-iork
delegation were opposed to Iildon's nomination
drew forth equal disapprobation and applause
Finally when he thanked the Chairman aud the
Convention for the hearing they had given hln' by
grotesque contrast he did so in the midst oi an up
roar which only allowed his voice TO travel q half
dozen feet.
Col. Flournoy of Virginia seconded the nomina-

lowed in speech, of which thc peroraton was =

SCENES or THE FIRST BALLOT.
The excitement Of the Convection was at its high
est mitch when Senator DoJlitte finished his speech
and the voting began. The universal tendency of
the crowds 10 applaud the States they indicated
their choice was suppressed by the secretaries, who
utterly refused to any vote east unless the
| roar Of voices was hughed. The excitement, too,
WAS of that deep a-absorbng kind that IL not best
EXPRESSED in shout and ciappng of hands, IN stand
ing on chairs, and throwing hats III ar. lhe vote
| of Alabama was surprise to many. Inc
delegates from that state had been very quiet and
| mysterious and had been unwilling to give any
| pnbljc announcement Of their standing. The cheer
with which It's l3 votes for Tilden were received
s,on died away, aud the other states were called III
their order. Arkansas and California were lilden
States aud threw their votes solid. Colorado wlch
appears for the first time in National Democratic
conventiOn was also counted i"r liiueU'
| and a murmur of disappointment ran through
tba Tiden ranks when the yote was
announced. Az it had not been generally known
that as a compliment TO one of the delegates OF that
state who desired to honor his old friend the dele
ration had agreed to cast one complimentary vote
for CIV Hendricks. Florida wheeled into line for
rIJen with it's votes; but Georgia, which was eX-
n,ed IN give him about 10 the first ballot, cast
that number for Bayard and gave llden
only r. Illinois, too gave Hendricks more votes
than had generally been accorded nun III the ldeh
| canyass. and cast only 10 for Iilden Inc hearts
| of some of Tildens friends began to fail them lhe
soutb was "a unstable the sea, and tho falling OH
| avon of a few votes was an ominous sign. When
Kentucky was reached and contributed her 2i votes
| soId and Louisiana from which little had been
e,pected. gave more, tho outlook was much more
