WAIT FOR THE BALLOT.

There is much speculation as to the outcome
of the Republican National Convention and
not few estimates as to the first and second
ballots.
1t will not be, in all probability, until the
third ballot that the forces will get down to
solid work, and the real struggle between
the giants will begin.
The first ballot may probably be called,
in one sense, one of merely complimentary
votes, and the second will be sort of pre-
liminary skirmish along the whole line
for the purpose of testing the enemy's
strength. and the third "favorite sons" will
be ordered to the rear, and the fight will
then begin in dead earnest The man who
shall be nominated must depend for his
votes upon the combinations that will be
made then and there on the floor OF the
convention, and among the remnant of dele.
gates who are ready TO abandon their first or
second choice and take third. The show
OF hands on the second ballot will most
likely determine the real original strength
of Blaine, Arthur, Edmunds, Logan and
Sherman, and the figures will tell with mathe-
matieal accuracy what union of force will
push a certain man to the front. and place
the laurel wreath Of victory upon his brow.
And, OF course. speculation has already
actually commenced Ia regard 10 what COM
blnations are possible under the circum-
stances. As we have said In former arti-
Gle. will Arthurs friends go 10 Edmunds in
case the former has no hope Of success, or
will Edmunds furnish the votes that Arthur
may lack ia order to snake the rifle ?"
Will Blaine, Logan and Sherman pool their
issues, or will some one not yet named en-
ter and cross the wire many necks ahead ?
This latter query appears at present most
probable.

The efforts made by leading politicians
from different sections of the Sixth Con
gressional District TO induce exGov. Ham
ilton to permit his name TO be used in con
nection with the Democratic nomination
for Congress have failed, and the ex-Gov-
erner is now outspoken in his determine
ton not to be candidate. He, as well as
many of his intimate friends here, are in
favor of the nomination of some active
young politician, one who would make a
vigorous campaign. This state of feeling
has brought TO the surface the names of
Col. H. Kyd Douglas, of Washington coun-
ty, and Col. j.. V. Baughman, OF Frederick
county. Both of these gentlemen have
many warm friends and supporters here,
and II is conceded that either Of them would
make gallant fght-Hagerstown Cor. Bal
tiDs0re San.
In the matter Of presenting a candidate
for this nomination, Allegany and Garrett
have not yet been heard from, and perhaps
neither of them may not have an aspirant.
Montgomery seems TO be lsrgely in favor Of
Hon. Frederick J. Nelson, of Fire derrick II
there is no change, her vote will, from pres
ent indications and expressions, be cast in
the convention for him.

Richardson's Dramatic Combina-
ton played three nights at the College
this week, beginning Wednesday even>
ing with "The Bachelors" which was
rendered so happily that the small
audience present we're completely
captured and enthused. They spread
the news the next day to such good
purpose that the house was filed to
see the Bankers Daughter" on
Christmas night. when the company
confirmed themselves in the good
opinion of the audience. Miss Blake
won hearty and frequent applause by
her lifeslke representations; Miss
Nelson rendered her part happily, as
was shown by the audience time and
again; Mr.. Stewart made most ex>
cellent impression by his superb
characterization of difficult part;
Mr.. Richardson is versatile, fine &C.
tor, and Mr.. Schultz "brings down
the house" whenever he chooses. All
the players are very fair, and the
company is above the average seen in
Milan. The band and orchestra are
indeed superb. They would do credit
to city opera house. Under the
direction of the accomplished leader,
Prof. Clair, a number of difficult elias,
steal compositions were rendered, and
occasional cornet solos were given by
him, to the delight Of all. Numbers
Of cultivated people told us that the
music alone was well worth the price
of admission, and we freely agree
with them. Last night the popular
American play, "rhe Danites," wa!
given to well pleased audience
The series of entertainments wer,
given for the benefit of the college

Another beautiful day at the campground, with
cool, keen air. prophetic of the coming autumn.
An eloquent sermon was preached in the morning.
by the Rev. John Short, from Deut, xiii, 8: '"rhou
shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet,
or that dreamer of dreams; for the Lord your God,
proveth you to know whether ye love the Lord
your God, with all your heart and all your soul."
The noon prayer meeting was conducted by Bish
op William Taylor. The childrens meeting was
well attended. and the children manifested great
degree of interest Many of them testified of their
love for Jesus. Mrs. Dr. Jones, who lsbors
ingy among the little ones, leaves Old Orchard
tomorrow, with her husband. These energetic
workers will be much missed
Key. D. A. Wood preached at $50, taking his
text from Matthew V, 8; BLESSED are the pure in
heart for they shan see God" The doctrine of no.
illness has no more earnest advocate than this Mas
sachusetts clergyman.
The days exercises closed with sermon by the
Kew. MI. Whittier, whose text was II Timothy, ii,
q: II man, therefore, judge himself from
these, he shall be vessel unto honor, sanctifed,
and meet for the Masters use, and prepared unto
every good work..
The meeting closed with an altar service, after
which many of the people went singing and shout
ing TO their tents. One by the lights went out,
