JERSEY DISTRICT.
HACKENsACK, n. j., Sept. 26.-The face of
Colonel Feowes. of the Southern Confederacy and Tam
many Hail. was suffused with an oeagenOus smile as he
walked into the convention to-day and nodded 10 his
chairman to pull open the throttle Of the machine. In
the forenoon there had been some sporadic clnching
among delegates which indicated "feeng" between
Mr.. Cutters friends and the New-YOrk managers who
had slaughtered him. Then the Passaic caucus
went to pieces in a storm. and things were
badly mingled. But towards noon, after much
diplomacy, conditional alliance was cooked up be-
tween Bergen and Passaic according to the terms Of
which both Cutler and Miller TO be dropped and
fresh candidate named This why Colonel Fellowes
looked happy. But when Mr.. Howard Ellis Obedently
called the convention to order the delegates at once
began to act the Democrat Colonel Feowes made sew
eTal speeches, but the convention hurricane
OF confusion Then Captain Isaiah Rynders walked up the
aisle and seated himself the low platform before the
helpless chairman The chairman made sOme inaudble
remark, when the Captain leaped up and made his first
speech. C d. your he roared in large capitals,
addressing the chair CO d. yOu You lie, sir %
The chair at begged the Captains pardon and the
Captain after wagging the back Of his head for awhile
accepted the profered hand of the chair and harmony
restored between the brethren. But business
impossible, and the convention adjourned itself for
rest.
After recess Passac continued to be riotOusy Inclined
but an informal vote at last reached which proved
nothing for Morris voted blank Just here Mr. Cutters
friends could have w0n after ALL for the coalition had
weakened during the adjournment but the same lack Of
leadership left them helpless to-day II left them two
weeks ago. 10 took an hour longer hour Of wild dis
order and many speeches from Colonel FelOwes before
the convention could be adjusted for fOrmalEote and
then, the hrstbaot, Thomas w. Demares Of Bergen
was chosen. Passalc refused TO vote a unanimous
Endorsement and refusing listen TO the candidates
