President Hayes at Gar1ie1d's Home The Latter's Speech to a Priest. CLEVELAND, Nov. 4.-President Hayes
 Mrs. Hayes and Webb Hayes left Fremont this morning in special car and made a call
 on President-elect Garfield this afternoon.
 The visit was informal, President Hayes re- turning to Cleveland in the evening to be present at Republican publication. Gen eral Garfield received but few other visitors during the day, the weather being very
 stormy. Among the small number of callers were Rev. Father J. P. Thorpe and three associate pastors of the Catholic church bear ing an elegant cane which had been voted to
 General Garfield at a fair in Cleveland.
 Father Thorpe made speech. to which Gen.
 eral Garfield responded as follows:
 Father Thorpe-I receive this beautiful cane from the people whom you represent, gratined not merely that they chose its recipient but the fact that the spirit behind their choice in the line

THERE is a striking contrast, re-
marks the Harrisburg Patriot, be-
tween the worldly wisdom and craft
Of the late james A. Bayard, of Della
ware, and the lamblike innocence of
james A. Garfield, in the matter of
the Credit Mobilier. When General
Garfield was solicited to take some of
the Credit Mobilier stock he consent
ted and took his share of the profits,
as the Poland committee reported,
though he afterwards pretended to be
entirely ignorant of the nature of the
operation. In his extreme simplicity
he never supposed he would be called
upon to act as n representative on q
question in which the interests of the
corporation would be involved. When
Mr.. McComb invited Senator Bayard
to invest in the Credit Mobilier he
made the following reply dated jan
uary IA, 1868, which is printed in the
report of the committee on the inves-
tigation:

AT the recent serenade given to
Gen. Garfield, at Washington, after
his return to that city from Chicago,
ne appeared before the department Of
flee holders, who made up the crowd
in attendance on the occasion. leaning
upon the arm Of Secor Robson, Sec
retary of the Navy under the Grant
administration and at present Re-
publican member of Congress from
New Jersey. There was propriety
in Garfield and Robeson thus parad.
ing themselves arm in arm before the
public that will be duly appreciated.
Robeson's management of the navy
department was the most corrupt and
scandalous in the history of the gov
ernment His career of eight years
as head Of that department was a con-
tinued series of corrupt jobs and vio.
lations Of law. II was therefore emf
nently proper that so notorious a rep
resentative of the principle of official
debauchery should present to the ad-
miring place holders of Washington
a candidate for the Presidency tainted
with the disgraceful scandals of the
Credit Mobilier and the De Golyer
paving contract.

Democratic National Convention.

The Democratic National Conven-
ton met at Cincinnati on Tuesday,
and shortly after twelve o'clock was
called to order by Ex-senator Bar
mum, chairman of the National Com
mittee. After an impressive prayer
by Rev. c. w. Wendt, Senator Bar
mum, by the unanimous request of the
committee, announced that Hon. Geo.
Hoadly, of Ohio, had been selected for
temporary Chairman. As Mr.. Hoadly
ascended the platform he was received
with hearty cheers. He made ring
ing speech which was received with
great applause by the convention. The
usual committees were then appointed
and other preliminary business trans
acted, when, at o'clock, the con-
vention adjourned until 10 o'clock,
A. NJ, Wednesday. The convention
met yesterday pursuant to adjourn
ment and proceeded Immediately to
effect permanent organization. The
committee on organization reported in
favor of Ex-Gov. j. II. Stevenson, of
Kentucky, for permanent Chairman,
with one Vice President from each
State and continued the Secretaries,
reading clerks and other officers of
the temporary organization. This
report was adopted and the perms-
nent officers assumed their duties. The
first business taken up by the conven-
ton was the consideration of the re-
port of the committee on contested
seats, there being two reports from
the committee in the case of New
York-the majority against giving
seats to the contestants and the minor
ity In favor OF seating twenty of
them. After q sharp discussion of
the merits of this case there was call
of the States on the minority report
and it was rejected by a vote of 205
in favor and 457 against its adoption.
The report of the majority was then
adopted, and the committee ON resolu-
tions not being ready to report it was
decided TO receive nominations for
candidates for President and the roll
of States was called over for that pur-
pose. The following are the names
presented in the order in which their
States were called: Field, of Califor-
MIA Bayard, of Delaware; Morrison,
of Illinois; Hendricks, of Indiana;
Thurman, of Ohio; Hancock, of
Pennsylvania. A ballot was then
taken resulting as follows: Hancock,
l61 ; Bayard, 165 +; Payne, 80 4; Field,
65; Thurman, "a; Morrison, 81: !:
Hendricks, AZ; Tilden, 80.
After this first ballot the conven-
tion adjourned until Thursday morn
ing. The vote of the Pennsylvania
delegation was cast for the following
candidates: For Jewett, | Field, !;
Seymour, 3; Randall, l. Hancock,
% ; Bayard, z; and Tilden Is. At this
writing-Wednesda evening-it is
impossible to predict who will be nom-
mated. 1t is gratifying to be able to
state, however, that while the contest
is earnest and animated, the best of
feeling prevails and everything bids
fair for results that will be entirely
satisfactory to the party. The nomi-
nees will be such as cannot fail TO
lead the party to grand victory In
November.

ALL efforts, says the Washington
Post, to explain away the ugly facts of
MIR. Garfeld's record serve only to
make them more conspicuous, and to
demonstrate their utterly indefensible

guilty in his hehalf and appeal to the
generosity Of the voting masses to COW
er his transgressiOns with the broad

GENERAL BEAVER said in his rati.
fication speech, that prominent Geor-
gian told him in Chicago, that if Cen
eral Grant was nominated, FELTON,,
Stephens and Speer of that State,
would support him. These gentlemen
are all Democratic members of Con-
gress. We question the veracity of
General Beavers distinguished" in
formant as to Mr.. Speer. Stephens
and FELTON, might have, and possibly
will, throw themselves into opposition
to the Democratic party. FELTON, is an
independent" and Stephens is a de-
cayed monument of the past, but
Emory Speer is a Democrat, and his
whole career in Congress refutes the
imputation that he will under any cir
cumstances, be found acting in oppo-
sition to the universal sentiment of his
people.

A WAsHINGToN despatch to the Re
publican newspapers asserts that "Gen.
Garfield as soon as he ascertained that
the Credit Mobilier scheme was in con-
fiict with his duty as a legislator he
dropped all connection with it." The
trouble with Garfield is that he did not
drop all connection with it" until the
disgraceful scheme" was exposed and
received, as it deserved, the righteous
indignation of the public. He held
OH to his dividend for long time.
