Hail Columbia" The result having
ven passed to the throng outside their
shouts drowned the noise within the
building.
C)nkllng, Logan, Hale, Harrison, and
others desired, in feeling remarks, that
the nomination should be made unani-
nous.
kilograms came pouring into the Con-
vention from Washington and all parts
of the country congratulating the Con.
vention or the result. The House 81
Washington appointed a committee o
five Of It's Oldest members to congratulate
James A. Garfield on the result.
VICE PRESIDENT.
The Convention took q recess to
o'clock, and upon re-assembling nomina
ted Gen. Chester A. Arthur, of New
York, for Vice President on the frs
ballot. He received 46s votes, to l9S fol
Washburne, and the balance scattering
between Jewell, Bruce, Woodford anC
two or three others.
1t is doubtful If a ticket could have beer
selected from all the prominent men IL
the country that would have given sucl
universal satisfaction and confidence O
success. The friends of the leadiag can
didates who have been looking cross-eyeC
at each other for month past, and woulC
scarcely speak, now walk right up an,
shake hands as heartily as in reviva
meeting.
