: those who now shout in tho galleries shall
| bye and bye be reposing under the influence
Oft summer sun, but the followers of the
grand old silent soldier will still be
! found wideawake and watching by
their camp fires and carrying the ban
ners of the sluggards." The scene which
followed and continued for several minutes
was most exciting, part of the galleries and
! the Grant u,en in the convention standing
and shouting-the uproar partially diving
away, then breaking out again. This scene
OF xctement WAS continued for Il longer
time, and it was clearly apparent that it was
not participated in by so large proportion
of the audience rs upon the occasion of Mr..
Pixlays alusion to Mr. Blaine. Mr.. Couk-
! ling was conspicuous in leading the cheers,
hrsl by waving his handkerchief ana later by
standing on bis chair and waving an illumi-
nat d little banner placed to designate seats of
! the New York delegation, Finally some one
started the campaign song, "We'll rally round
! the Fling, Buys, shouting the battle cry of
! freedom
| A New York delegate called for three
cheers for Grant, which were given with u
will; three cheers for Blaine were called for by
some one on the floor and the shout that
sprang from thousands of threats WAS more
deafening than anything which had preceded
| IT, The Grant men on the floor evidently
were not aware of the cau,, of the fresh out.
break, and so were on their feet aiding in she
pandemonlum of noise and coDtusou At
this time nearly every pr" son within the hll
was on his feet, each cheering for his own o.
vorlte, Flags, umbrellas. hats, and all other
movable things within reach were
/ swinging furiuusly to and fro
Robert Ingersoll, Selling Ia,
dies shawl, waved it frantically from the
pl storm. 1t may be safely said that no
public assembage before witnessed such
scene. People seemed actu,lv 20 have lost
their senses in the whir of cyclt ,men, Half
an hour elapsed before the Chair made my
efforts to call the convention to order. At
this time Mr.. Hale of Maine, WAS seen
standing above the surging crowd on the
shoulders of some friends waving the banner
of Maine nd with banners
of Blaine States grouped closely about
him. AT last comparative order was restored,
when three cheers were asked for and given
to the nominee of this convention, and Mr.
Storrs resumed his remarks, to be inter.
rpted by renewed cheers upon his referring
TO Mr. Sherman. He closed with an earnest
invocation for justice and unity as n presage
to secure success.
The Chair announced that the time of the
minority had expired, and that twenty min
utes' time remained to the majority.
There were loud cries for fngersoll, who
declined to respond be ause he was dele
gate only by proxy.
Mr.. Pixley said he came 5000 miles to at
tend n delberative convention. [Cries of
$1,000 oh, oh, Mr.. Pxloy."] We'll, | have
added thousand miles to accommodate
myself t. the class of oratory that has gov

commune. II WAS time that this
child's play should cease and the convention
attend to business.

Ohio. moved adjournment until 10 O'clock

declared to- be lost.
