BAYARD's NOMINATION..
The call of Delaware was greeted with tu-
multuous applause. George Gray of that
State presented the name of Thomas +. Bay
ard. Delaware was small in numbers, but
was proud of her history and her position in
the sisterhood of States. She was here to-
day to do her best in behalf of the common
cause. Who will lead best in the struggles
for constitutional Government and popular
rights, they were here to-day to decide.
[Cries, "Bayard, Bayard."l When the
speaker mentioned the full name of Thomas
Francis Bayard it was hailed with sponta-
neous burst of applause. He was no novice,
but man of experience and craftsmanship.
His name and record were known wher-
ever our flag floats or the English
tongue is spoken. With private
character spotless as snow, a Judgment clear
as sunlight, keen as flashing saber, honest
the people all know him. and need not be told
who and what he is. In whom more than
him will the business interests of the country
find trust? Who better than he will truly
represent the Democratic party, or give
higher direction to its aspiration, than he
whose name is very synonym of opposition
to corruption in every form? Who has con-
tributed more to the present commanding
strength of the Democratic party? Don't
tell us. who admire and honor him, that he
is unavailable. Tell US that he is not too
good man to command the suffrages of the
Democratic party. Tell us that brave party
is to be led by brave man, who will never
falter in any emergency. His nomination
will be the prestige of victory from gulf to
ocean. [Applause.l

shall latter somewhat tiresome general po-
Iitical speech, in which he was interrupted by
impatient calls of "Time time," and confu-
sion) said the American people now de-
mand as leader man worthy of the cause
one of infexible honor and indomitable cour-
age, man of the people, one who is legis-
lator-and finally, on behalf of unanimous
Illinois, he named the gallant soldier, VIM.

A Virginia delegate protested against out
side Interruptions and said if they were re-
peated, he would demand that the hall and
galleries be cleared of all except delegates.
HENDRICKS NAMED.
The call far Indiana was the signal for the
most enthusiastic cheering outside the dele
gates seats, renewed wildly as the banner of
Thomas A. Hendricks was waved from the
rear of the platform. Voorhees, of Indiana
desired to present the name of distinguished
citizen of Indiana, who was fit to be Presi-
dent After complimentary allusion to all
the candidates already presented, all of whom
he knew were worthy of every honor, he said
there was none, however, with more COM
mendation in the works of his life than at
tached to Thomas A Hendricks. [Great
applause Indiana had for twenty years
been an important battle-ground of
the Democratic party, and she had never
faltered under Hendricks in the front. APP
plause.l There were no divided councils in
Indiana. They were unanimous and cordial
in their presentation of the gentleman whom
he had named He was worthy of all sup
port, and his administration, if nominated
and elected, would be as pure as his admins
tration in every station he had filled in the
past. To the South, who had been more
faithfuls To the North, who has been
truer, Indiana nailed his colors to the mast.
and would stand by them and go down with
them in honor if need be, but if Indiana's
hopes were realized here, it would be the
prestige of q great victory. Applause
BAYARD's NOMINATION SECONDED.
When Massachusetts was called, Dalton
stall took the platform to second the nomina-
ton of Bayard. [Applause.l They all de-
sired candidates who would elevate the sta
tions to which they would be called, who
would honor their ofices-more than that
they would be honored by them. Such a
man was Bayard His nomination would
excite throughout the land the greatest en-
thusiasm, and attract hosts who have never
heretofore voted the Democratic ticket. No
act of his could be pointed at which admits
of doubtful construction. In such nomina-
ton the country would fad relief. He had
~ =, - -, h or
right. The country was weary of merely
available men. They wanted the best man,
and the best would be the most available.
Applause. Without & blot on his life, pub
lie or private, like his great prototype, with
out fear and without reproach, he was most
ft candidate for President of the United
States.

NOMINATION OF THURMAN.
When Ohio was called NcSweeny of that
State took the platform and read speech in
which he said the Democracy of Ohio, in
State Convention, with absolute unanimity,
had determined to present the name of Allen
G. Thurman. He would forbear any eulogy,
for that need not be grateful to the man
whose name he presented, nor would he con.
sumo the time in rec;ting useless biography,
All know his public life and services. Never
theless, he proceeded with eulogistic refer
ences to Thurman's record. The times de,
mand ticket that shall be clean, one around
which no dirty scandals cling, man whose
name will be of itself the platform. Such
a man was Thurman, az all well knew. [Ap-
plause. He had fought the good fight, he
has kept the faith. Under him the rights of
all-rich and poor, capital and labor-would
be protected and the rights of sections also
carefully preserved. He denied that Ohio
was Republican State [applausel, and ar
eued that Garfeld's nomination was an ad-
mission by the Chicago Convention that Ohio
was not Republican. They had already a
son of Ohio at Washington in Tilden's chair
Iapplausel, and yet they took another.
" Insatiate archer, would not one suffice %
Laughter and applause.l The speaker
continued at considerable length with great
rapidity and much humor, and was honored
at his close with hearty round of applause,
and as he returned to his seat the Ohio dele,
cation rose to receive him with cheers.
