Republicans here In very quiet man.
ner. No demonstrations were made en-
except such as were prearranged, and
would have taken place in any event.
These were faint anu soon over. The
general tenor OF the conversation among
Republicans Is that they will never be
able to arouse any strong enthusiasm, or
make very aggressive canvass. 1t Is be-
lieved that the ''bloody shirt" will have
to come out Of the canvass and be laid
aside. while the church and school ques-
tons will be pushed to the front.
DEMOCRATIC SATISFACTION.
.lDelnocrats receive the nomination with
satisfaction. Some OF them regard 1t as
forcing the issue Of the canvass into the
October States, and 1t Is q severe backset
to those who have been insisting that
New Y ork alone must be the key to the
contest. Even the Tiltlen men admit
this and recognize that the nomination Of
Hayes forces the Democracy to contest
every inch of ground in both the October
States, Indiana and Ohio.
SETS THURMAN AHEAD.
Thurman stock has gone up five hun
dred per cent. since the announcement of
the Cincinnati result. Already several of
the most prominent. Allen men in the
Ohio delegation have avowed readiness
to support Thurman. They believe that
Thurman could carry the State Of Ohio
against Hayes.

seventh ballot was reported Blaine sat
down and wrote his congralulatory dis
patch to MIR. Hayes. and it was on the
wires to Columbus before the fOotings OF
the ballot were received at Washington.
Immediately after the formal announce
ment, Mr.. Blaine rode out with his eld-
est son and was received with loud cheers
! wherever crowds were assembled on the
J streets.
Blaine received dispatches throughout
the day in his library ia company with
some dozen friends, whom he continually
assured that Hayes would be ultimately
nominated. He was fully Impressed
with the probability OF successful COM
binaliOn against him, and, except dur
ing the twenty minutes following the
sixth ballot, did not expect the noInina-
ton. He was altogether the coolest ant
least excited Of the company.
WHAT BLAINE SAYS.
During this evening his residence was
crowded with callers, whom Blaine re-
ceived with cheerfulncss, exhibiting nc
traces whatever OF disappointment, ani
discussing the events of the day. Tie
says the immediate cause OF the failure Of
his friends to secure his nomination was
the holding back Of votes for him from
Pennylvania after the third ballot. This
he attributed to fictitious strength TEN
porarily lent to Hartranft from time tc
time by Conkling forces which made it
possible for the minority of Pennsylvania
to urge that their candidate couldn't
properly be dropped while he was still
apparently gaining votes.
Senators Morton and Conkling and
Secretary BristOw acquiese in the result
with many complimentary expression.
