A Boon, for Sey mOur.

The Democratic State Convention Of
Illinois met yesterday in Springfield
Ex-senator Trunbull made an address,
in which he said the Republican Presi-
Dental nominees would command the
votes of the Republican party, and the
Democracy had that party to defeat,
and not its nominees. A state ticket
was nominated, headed by Lyman
Trumbull, of Chicago, for Governor, and
Lewis B. Parsons, of Clay county, for
Lieutenant Governor. A resolution de-
claring for Horatio Seymour for Presi.
dent was received with great applause,
but referred, by vote Of 373 to 273, to
the Committee on Resolutions. Dele
gates at large to Cincinnati were then
chosen and Electors nominated. The
platform adopted declares against a
protective tariff, against third term,
against Federal interference with the
Constitutional functions Of States,
against land grants, against repetition
of the Electoral frauds Of 1876. and for
substantial reform Of the civil service
and "a Constitutional currency Of gold
and silver Ofpsper convertible into
coin."

These Bogus Circus Agents.

People in Wilmington will renembe
bogus circus agent, claiming 10 be a,
advance man for 0'Brien's circus wht
was in town victinizing people some
weeks ago. The same fellow whose
name is Frank McGovern and com.
paniou named C. +. Lamar have gotten
into trouble, as the following from the
Harrisburg "Patriot" will show:
"They had called upon bakers and
other business men making contracts
for bread, meat, hay, oats, ETC., and in
return asking for cards to be inserted
in programme they promised to fur
nish, and demanding payment of such
cards In advance. Upon searching Nc
Govern loaded revolver and a lot of
documents were found upon his person.
1t is said he was formerly a lawyer of
the Northampton county bar.
Wood had number of bogus
orders CONTRACTS for bread, feed,
etc. for O'Brien's circus in his pos
session and quantity Of bogus jewel
ry. He had forged contracts on persons
in Alliance, Ohio, and Johnstown, Pa,
for meat, provisions, etc., and one on a
Harrisburg butcher for $95, also one on

LAKGE EXCURSION.
The Union M. II, Sunday SehOOI's
Trip to Bombay. Hook and Back.

1
! The Union N. =. Sunday School spen
that part of yesterday not spent on thu
"Clyde," at Bombay Hook, hereafter t.
be known as Woodland Beach. The
new City Cornet Band under the lead
ership Of John Wallschmidt headed
the school in its march from the church
at Fifth and Washington streets, to the
"Clyde" at the foot OF Freuch street.
Some two or three hundred members Of
the school had already preceded the
crowd and boarded the steamer, but
there were about 450 remained in line
and as they passed through the streets
attracted general attention. At 725
the boat steamed magnifoently down
the Christiana and ont into the Della
ware with over 1900 souls on board
enjoying the stiffenina sea breeze.
The noble steamer as If conscious Of
the precious burden she bore spread
her flags and psnants to the breeze and
moved down the bay like thing Of life
and joy forever. Stopping at Delaware
City William Reybold, President of the
Bombay Hook Association, and William
R. Bright, President of the Levy
Court, were taken aboard. After
passing Fort Delaware, the steamer
passed through q rain on the Bay
by way of change, but soon after
wards the sun blinked from behind the
sombre clouds, giving assurances that
the shower was just to lay the dust,
wash off the foliage and make things
more pleasant at Bombay Hook.
The boat reached its destination soon
after 10 o'clock, and in a short time
the thirteen hundred excursionists were
swarming over the lawn in front of the
hotel and taking possession of the
small pavilions in which there were
anything like seats and tables. The
remainder of the party, headed by the
band, went to tbe woods little farther
on, in which were numerous tables,
seats and swings, but not enough of
tables, and the water was rather
scarce.
The woods were grand, nona better
on the bay for excursionists. The old
tree which will hold sixteen persons
at once was measured and was found TO
be IA odd feet in diameter. The tables
we're here spread, the swings kept in
motion, cake eat, lemonade drank, and
yellow logged chickens pulled to pieces
in true methodist minister style until
about two o'clock when the woods were
deserted and the crowds gathered on
the beach to watch the bathers.
Pinding that a saloon in the main
pavilion was open and that liquors and
beer were too freely dispensed the COM
mittee Of the excursion and President !
Reybold waited upon the dispensers of
spirits and after warning them that it
would be to their interests to close very
suddenly the request was complied
with. AT half past four o'clock the
excursionists were all aboard again
and the noble Clyde walked the waves
up the bay arriving at French Street
wharf at y o'clock. All expressed
themselves delighted with the pleas
ures of the. trip. Financially the ex-
cursion was a grand success, the school
making clear Of all expenses over 800.
Great credit is due to the new City Cor
net Band, which discoursed excellent
music, and by their gentlemanly de-
pertinent showed that they were all
