REcoNp BALLOT.

There was some more discussion as to
whether the proxy in West Virginia could
be cast, but the chair decided in the
negative at the conclusion Of roll cal,
when the vote was announced, that he had
ordered the names Of the delegate and
alternate in West Virginia to be called,
and neither being present the vote could
not be announced. Butterworth rose,
but stating that he did not appeal from the
decision, the chair said there was nothing
before the house.

When 7 o'clock arrived, the hour to
which the convention adjourned, but few
delegates were in their seats, but the gal
leries were filled. The first maniiestion
Of public approval was on the arrival o'
Gen. Logan, who received generous ap.
plause. Later on came Mr.. Conkling and
Gen. Garfield, who pretty equally divided
the honors. 1t was twenty-five minutes
past when the Chair called 1t to order.
Mr.. Hoar again requested the galleries
10 refrain from spplsuding, and promised
that they should be cleared. The roll was
then called,

rwENrY-pouRru BALLOT.

This ballot showed an unusual change
in the vote in the Southern States. When
Louisiana was called, the Chairman Of the
delegation, after announcing the result,
asked to have delegations polled, but
as no delegate questioned the correctness
OF the vote the Chair refused to order 1t.
The changes were: In Louisiana two votes
from Sherman to Blaine; in Mississippi
one from Sherman 10 Grant; in North
Carolina that delegate returned from
Sherman TO Grant; In Tennessee one vote
from Grant to Sherman in West Virginia
one from Washburne TO Blaine.

spes!al Dspa,ch TO the Iutslllssncer.
The convention sat TO day from 10 A. NJ.
to lOp. N, with recess from half past
Sto7 I, for dinner.
Twenty.eight ballots were taken with
out nomination and without developing
the probable outcome Of the contest. The
situation is as cloudy tonight as 1t was
this morning. Blaine did not pan out as
well as his friends expected, while Grant
got about the vote that Blaine's friends
expected. They changed placesas it%ere.
The vote Of Grant varied between BOZ and
SO9, leaving OF at 3O7; that Of Blaine be-
tween 275 aud 2S5, closing at 279.
Sherman did not reach the 100 that was
eIpscted for him at the last moment. He
has a reserve Of strength, however, in
several delegations, particularly Massa'
chuse,tS aud New Jersey. The trouble Is
they are a!rSd to 90 to him, for fear oI
stAmpeding otEer votes to Grant. sher
