SYRACUSE, Sept. 1.-THE Tammany dele
gates, upon retiring from the convention, met
in Shakespeare hall, and the auditorium was
soon filed. As Dorsheimer, sohell, Kelly and
others entered they were received with cheers
and great enthusiasm. Samuel G.. Courtney,
| who succeeded Daniel s. Dickinson in the
Office of the United States district attorney at
| New York, called the second convention to Or
| der, saying that the representatives of 10000
voters in New York and 20, 600 voters in Kings
| county have met here tonight to vindicate
their manhood, and arraigned Gov. Robinson
as a man owned by the great trickster of Cipher
| Alley. David Dudley Field was chosen chair
| man. He said this committee was an assem-
blage of Democrats of New York City and other
parts of the State. who sympathize with them
in their work of the past two days. This dele
CATION all through had been called the Tam
many delegation, yet it was the only regular
| delegation in the State convention from that
city. No Democratic ticket had ever been
elected, or could be elected, without the
sents. What. he asked, have
you done3 You have been offended by Cover
nor Robinson, and you said 50. You said MORE
that you could not support him for Office, and
you had the right to say this, and it was your
right to say this. What has the majority said

taken the only steps your manhood could die
tate. They have said to you, ''You shall take
that nomination and none other" 1t has been
said you would not take this step; that
within twcnty-feur hours you would be throw
ing up your hats for Gov. Robinson. Never
never. 1t remains for you to say whether you
will or not.
Four secretaries were appointed, two from
New York and one each from Westchester and
Kings. committee was appointed to report
what action the convention should take and
while the committee was celebrating John
B. Haskins, of Westchester, who was intro
duced as the chief of the Tuscororas, made a
speech addressing the audience as fellow
Democrats and fellow traitors. He had per-
haps contributed as much as any one man in
New York to the election of the cross between

in sackcloth and ashes for the remainder of his

Mr.. DOrsheimer, from the committee on plan
of action, reported the convention recon-
mended; ..... ..... a.
First-Tbat the convention proceed to nomi-
nate candidate for Governor.
Second-That a committee of fifteen be ap-
pointed by the chairman and announced in the
future, which shall be constituted with power
with reference to the remainder of the ticket as
may seem to them proper.
He said in nominating a candidate to be sup
ported for Governor, it became proper he
should speak of his qualifications for the Office.
He
.. NOMINATED JOHN KELLY,
Of New York, (applause) and went on to eulo-
gize him as public official. He closed by pro-
posing to nominate John Kelly by acclamation.
(Applause.)
The nomination was promptly seconded with
the expression that if John Kelly should be
elected New York would never have had more
honest more capable more faithful Gov
ernOr. .... -.-
The nomination of Kelly for Governor was
made unanimous by rising vote with great
enthusiasm.
JOHNS THANKS.
John Kelly being called for was received
with three times three cheers. he thanked
the convention for the compliment paid him.
He regarded it as a compliment coming from
the heart and not from the lips He didn't ex-
pect to be elected Governor, but he did expect
the defeat the man who had committed great
outrages upon the people of New York. He
expected to convince Gov. Robinson after he .
has retired to private life, that he has
committed great wrong on the peo-
pie not only of New York, but of the State.
He had surrounded himself with a. bad class of
people, who were using him for bad purposes.
He hoped he would be able to see the wrong he
perpetrated the 18th of March last when he re-
sorted to the plans of a
MIDNIGHT ASSASSIN AND BURGLAR
to secure possession of public Office. Kelly
then reviewed the circumstances of getting pos
session of the Office of county clerk of New
York. This being the way Lucius Rob-
inson discharges the duties of his Office
he asked if it was not time that
he be removed. (Cries of Eyes," ''yes.'D He
related other incidents of like character in
which the Governor had taken part He said
it might be asked why he laid these grievances
before this assemblage. It was because they
were grievances which affected the very founda-
ton of the government, and unless they were
redressed, unless they were resisted, that
foundation would be undermined and the
government destroyed. Let the convention
and those connected with it, he
the party. He hoped those who heard him
would 90 to the polls with full determination
that no such man as Lucius Robinson shall be
perpetuated in Office. He said the convention
was, in fact, nothing more than caucus
and he hoped the judgment of the
people would not be swayed by its
action. 1t was amusing to him, seeing the
numbers of little men employed on canals and
in the State Offices running about this city en-
deavoring to sway the Judgment of delegates.
In 1878, he said, it will be recollected there
were but five counties in the State which gave
Democratic majorities, and these men ought to
know that this year it would be as much as
the party could do to get majority in the
State, even with union and harmony prevailing.
Hepromised that in New York the usual Dem
ocratic majority would be secured. Voice,
We will vote for you outside the city, too
Now, said he, I accept this nomination

Hall will do all it can land it can do much) for
the election of our county ticket. promise
you we shall elect it from top to bottom. These
men who have attempted to tyrannize over you
will be beaten $4,000, and they ought to be
beaten and forced to give place to men of
judgment When nincompoops undertake to
lead the rarity, they always lead it to
defeat. They ought to be beaten
because the party ought to be purified, and it
was time for change in the government of
this State. I hoped that in the near future
| they would meet again and the party be vivi-
| fed again and rise phoenix-like to new life
| and power.
Dorsheimer's proposition for committee
of fifteen to decide whether full ticket should
| be nominated was adopted and the convention
adjourned sine die.
