THE CHICAGO NOMINEES.

The Republican National convention
at Chicago yesterday afternoon, after a
session of six days, nominated General
James A. Garfield, of Ohio, for Presi-
dent on the thirty-sixth ballot, which
stood as foil VS.: Garfield 800, Grant
800, Blaine AZ, Sherman 3, Washburn B..
On motion of Senator Conkling the NOM
nation was made unanimous. General
Garfield was a member of the conven-
tion-chairman of the Ohio delegation
and the champion of Sherman's cause.
He received from one to two votes on a
number of the ballots until the 35th was
reached when his vote was so and upon
the next ballot was nominated. After
the nomination of President the conven-
ton adjourned until o'clock in the eve
ming. Upon reassembling the conven-
ton proceeded to the choice of candl-
date for Vice-President, resulting In the
nomination of Hon. Chester A. Arthur,
of New York, on the first ballot by the
following vote Arthur 46S, Washburn
10, Maynard 80, Jewell A, Bruce So,
Woodford 1, Davis 2. The ticket is hail
ed with satisfaction by all classes of re-
publicans, and is even admitted by demo-
Gratis to be strong selection. With such
a candidate as General Garfield to lead
the column, victory is assured to the re-
publicans of Wisconsin in November. ]
After Gen. Garfield had been nominal
ed by the convention, speeches were
made, Senators Conkling and Logan,
and others endorsing him. Senator Conk-
ling said, Mr.. Chairman: James A. Gar
field of Ohio, having received a majority of
the votes of this convention, also to move
that he be unanimously presented as the
nominee of this convention, and being on
my feet avail myself Of the opportunity
to congratulate the Republican party up
on the good natured and well tempered
manner which has distinguished this con-
vention. Mr.. Chairman, | trust that the
zeal and the fervor and now the unanim-
ity seen in this convention will be trans
ferred to the field and campaign, and
that all of US who have taken part
against each other will find ourselves
with equal zeal bearing the flag, and with
equal zeal carrying the lance of the Re-
publican party into the ranks of the enc
my. Applause.
The following congratulatory kilograms
were received by the nominee.

Sells Brothers Worlds fair of Won
ders, and WOrld-famous Menagerie and
Circus, which Is to exhibit at Cleve-
land on Saturday Oct. 2nd, is as pre-
eminent for truthfulness as for every
thing else, and pridcs itself upon filling
its vast tents, not by wholesale mlsrep-
resentation, but through h%Onorably
filing It's bills in every respect, and
presenting everywhere every feature
advertised. This is the secret of its
tremendous popularity and success, and
iustifies the press everywhere In lend
ing it the aid of its powerful voice. 1t
gave exhibitions in Louisville on Sep
TENDER 81 and 18th, and here is what
the Courier Journal says Of it:
''The audience last night numbered
at least ten thousand. The advertise
mcnt of the circus put forth big claims
that were fully justified. The show
stands for itself. 1t is the best beyond
question, on the road. The living hip
pOpOtami were made to walk around
the ring and show their beautiful feat
ures to the crowd. Aherd of six per-
forming Colorado cattle, presented a
novel spectacle, and gave evidence of
good intelligence. The human sized
ape, which rode bareback, was another
remarkable constituent of the show. 1t
went through nearly all the feats done
by human horseback riders, and was
greeted with great enthusiasm. The
performing dogs had several fresh acts
in their repertoire and pleased the
crowd immensely. Fourteen perform
ing thorOughbrcds presented Il beauti-
full sight. The show concluded with
IN excellent bareback exhibition, full
of wild and daring featS. The Sells
Bros. are to be congratulated on the
excellent circus and %menageric they
have collected. In no respect have they
failed to give what they promised, and
their exhibition is heartily recommend
ed to the patronage Of other cities as
n that is worthy of all that is claimed
for it."
The Louisville EUeRing Post of Sep, 4tl
cOncurs, in the following strong words:
"Ihe procession yesterday and to-
day were certainly the longest and
best ever paraded our streets. Last
night the immense tent was filled COM
plctcly with Il crowd numbering six
thousand eight hundred by count, many
had to be turned away at the entrance.
Everything was given according to the
announced programme and the crowd
was we'll pleased and enthusiastic. The
principal features of the arcnic per-
Torrance were the daring bareback
of James Robinson, the wonder
FIJI and hazardous feats in mid-air of
of the trapcze performers, and the fun
NY tricks of the trained monkey and
the trained oxen. The slack rope
walking by the Japanese was the best
ever seen in the city"

Stock Show.

EDITOR HERALD: From conversation
with II number Of stock owners | find it
is desirable to have another show OF
stock this fall even if it be imprOmpta MS
was the one held last season. Poor
harvest and general lack of funds is
perhaps a fair excuse for not going in
to the matter Systematically this year,
and il is best to do what we can, that
public spirit concerning so practical Il
subject as the Improvement OF the
stock Of country, may be stimulated {;
and it is no question that much good
comes from such meetings as the one
held last October.
| have no desire to assume hOnOrS not
belonging to me, nor to appear big
headed, but it seems like some one has
to start the matter: aud having been
requested tC do so by several who are
interested, hereby call II meeting of
the farmers and stOck-raisels of Brad
ley, Polk, James, Mcigs and adjoining
counties, in Cleyeland, wednesday
October 10th, and earnestly urge all to
lenG Il helping hand by bringing in
their stock of all kinds, and let us see
if we can not beat all the politicians
combined by having an old fashioned
good time that will rouse the real bust
ness within us, and add to our knOwl-
edge of the matters of everyday impOr-
lance while strengthening ties of neigh
boIly good will. Efforts will be made
to have better facilities for showing
than last year, but that cannot be prom
ised yet. W. o. Virgins. V. Pres. for

The Chancery Court setting at Dcca-
tur last week decided the jolly Island
case in favor of Crutchfield heirs. This
ease it will be remembered was Crutch-
field heirs VS. heirs of Thos. II. Gallo
way. In 1874 the complainants recov-
cred S2-l00 Of the Island, and then sued
for rents froln 1850 to 1874, making
about $l50,000. In his decree Judge
Bradford allowed Hopkins heirs rent
of the island from 1850 to 1867, aginst
Calloway's estate and against the
Crutchlield's and C%allOway's heirs
Jointly from 1867 to 1873, and the ac-
counts of the rents are now being pre-
pared. ItIs believed that they will ag-
grcgate nearly $40, 1000. 90. The decree
has been appealed from to the Supreme
Court by the defendants.
