cordingly came on, eight hundred strong, occu-
pyiug twenty-eight sleeping cars. The cars
were festooned with flags, and bore various in
soriptions in the shape of banners extending
the whole length of the cars. The first car was
marked "Tammany Hall Special Train" " Then
followed such notices "a those:
"No Credit Mobilie,." "No De Golyor

Wisdom of our Democratic Convention.
Beware of Electoral Commissions; they Usurp

wore blue and gold badge, on which was in
scribed, "rammany Hall, 1880; Unite and

mingled WITH them fully, passing through the
entire train looking for the typical Tammany
boy, but found quiet, orderly men, ranging from
2l to 80 years old. There was little political dis
cussion, aud no bOisterOusness. 1t was much
more quiet delegation than the anti-Tilden
crowd at st. Louis four years ago. One man

numbers of others openly declared that they
would support any man but TIldeu, but would
defeat him If he was nominated. All along
the route, at the leading towns, Gro VIDA were
gathered by hundreds to see and cheer the
train. At Dlytoa several thousand were at
the depot As there was no halt for dinner
there were loud expressions of sadness over
the Dayton Sunday laws which forbid the sale
of beer. That was the only incident which
disturbed the equanimity Of Tamanay during
the entire day.
At Cincinnati five or six thousand people
were at the depot to greet the train upon its
arrival at five o'clock. 1t had been run in two
sections until a few miles out when it was
united and came in, drawn by two engines

is claimed to be authority for stating that

most prominently of any one and Thurman is
already practically thrown overheard. The
Ohio delegation is instructed for him, but they
will not support him for more than one ballot
and may withdraw him altogether before the
nominations are reached. Hancock and Bay
ard have little but hopeless b1oms rattling
around. Next to Payne the Hendricks and
Fields bOoms are the big thing. The question
of who will he nominated seems to be as unset
tied as it was at Chicago.
There is no such fever heat, aud though the
attendance is large, the crowd seems small in
comparison with the ofice-holders' mob at Chi
cago. The utmost confidence is felt as to the
result in November, and everybody is good IA
tured and in the best of spirits. Later in the
evening, when l know more, 1 will tell you
