boom. The Indiana delegation and great
many others of the convention, together
with thousands of the audience, rose to their
feet and rent the air with cheers. Hats and
handkerchiefs were swung, and for couple
of minutes there was an uproar of hearty ap-
plause. The applause was renewed, though
in less degree when Mr.. Hendricks appeared
ou the platform with the permanent presi-
fient.
Gov. Hubbard's introduction of his sue
cessor was most gracefully done and with the
wods, 81 invoke for him that consideration
which is far less necessary than for myself, !"
he handed over the gavel to the representa-
tive of the young Democracy of the north
west. AS the GLOBE presents Col. Villas
speech verbatim do not need to note it in
detail. 1t was eloquent and clearly,
forcibly and slowly delivered, SO
that every word was heard by the
entire convention. He had just concluded
sentence denouncing the spirit of personal
ambition which would wreck the country
to achieve its ends when
there was stir upon the left hand side of
the platform and loud cheers went up from
the galleries which were taken up and re-
peated from END to end of the building. The
speaker paused and cooled his throat with
glass of water, while Ben. Butler, dressed in
black broadcloth and looking in extremely
hearty condition, walked up the aisle and
took his seat with the Massachusetts, dele
fret in fho
convention and he did not remain more
than half an hour, leaving in few minutes
after Col. Villas had concluded.
AT IT AGAIN.
1t seems that when Gov. Hubbard asked
''If there were any more resolutions the
convention was only halting to get its breath
and while Col Villas was speaking they had
spit ON their hands and caught fresh hold,
consequently when Col. Villas reached, ''what
is your further pleasure" resolutions were
being wildly swung in the air once more.
Mr.. Mumford, of Missouri got in the first
word and he wanted the Indian Territory re-
claimed from barbarism and thrown open to
civilization. Sweet of Georgia didn't like so
much surplus in the treasury, at least not
under Republican administration. Lane
of California dashed my hopes for clean
shirts by relegating the Chinese to oblivion
and Winter of Michigan proposed
scheme of internal communica-
ton which would paralyze all of Bill
Windom's efforts at the head of the senate
transportation committee, before he retired
in favor of Sabin.
GETTING AT WORK.
1t occurred to Mr.. Sowden. of Pennsvl-
vania that it would be good time to begin
some work, and he accordingly moved to
proceed to name candidates for the presiden-
cy. Clunie, OF California, probably wanted
another opportunity to go for the Mongolians,
and he opposed this and moved to adjourn.
This motion went to the wall, the galleries
joining in the negative vote in lusty man
ner. This was followed by motion to lay
the resolution for call of states for nomi-
nations on the table, and the roll was called
1t seemed to be an unexpected order of bus
ness to proceed to nominations so soon, and
delegates were protesting that they ought to
have platform first so that the reading clerk
before he could get response. Half dozen
delegates were on their feet, but the chair
brought down the gavel, saying, 'the roll call
has commenced and l can recognize no one
until it is completen Alabama opened the
ball with nineteen votes against laying on
the table and Arkansas came in second with
fourteen more on the same side. California
broke the ranks with fifteen yeas There
was no significance to the vote until Indiana
was reached when Mr.. Hendricks cast thirty
yeas, showing they were OF ready to present
their man just yet. When New York was
reached there was the usual row, of course
Naming commenced ''72 no'' and Grady was
on his feet in second shaking his finger at
the chair, and the galleries were yelling
"Gradym 'Grady" "put him outr' and
Kissing according as they sympathized or op-
posed the Tammany crowd.
The chair declined to recognize Grady and
declared him out of order, and again the cry
of ''Grady," "Grady ''and the counter cries
and Kisses went up. When the roll was
completed Grady was on his feet again, amid
the yells of his admirers in the galleries,
and this time he was recognized. 81 deny
the correctness of the vote as announced by
the chairman of the delegation He said,
''there are only 49 noes, and i ask to have it
so recorded"
The Chair-'I will call upon the chairman
of the New York delegation to restate the
vote.''
Mr.. Manning-''72 no." Loud cheers. !
The chair ruled that Grady's protest was
out of order and announced 2S2 yeas and
521 nays on the motion to table. The motion
to call the states for nominations was amend
ed so that there should be no vote on a can
didate until the platform was adopted, and
then the motion prevailed.
Motions for recess until eight p. m., for
adjournment until eleven a. IN. tomorrow,
for recess to 7:30 p. m, all went down,
the galleries joining in the proceedings and
voting more steadily against adjourn ment
than the convention itself. The galleries
had come there for all day and they wanted
to hear the nominating speeches, and they
did. In fact, before they got through they
got more eloquence than they bargained for,
and few thousand went out to refresh them
selves with liquids or otherwise.
California was the first state on the roll that
wanted to name a candidate. 1t was not a
favorite son but Thurman of Ohio they were
after, but their orator had gone out and CAL
ifornia made it euchre and passed" but
asked leave to ''order it up again" at fr-
ture time.
BAYARD.
When Delaware was reached Geo. Gray
responded and presented Thos. F. Bayard in
n very commonplace manner. The applause
was only moderate, and the author of the
Dover speech was not set afloat in the presi-
dental tide in very attractive manner.
MCDONALD.
''IndianaI shouted the reading clerk
and greatMout went up, which lulled a
