 PROVIDENCE, May 3.-The Republican state and the two district conventions for the choice of delegates to the national convention in Chicago, in June, were held in the Provi- dence Opera house. The names of the four delegates at large were acted upon sepa- rately, and two of the nominations were contested, but all were elected, as follows:
 The following resolution was adopted:
 'We deem it expedient at this time to put on record the fact that the newspapers pub lished by The Providence Journal company have long ceased to represent the Republican party of this state. They have factiously op- posed wise and we'll considered acts of legis- lation which were devised in the councils of the party, and have been approved by the consent of the people; they have wantonly misrepresented the acts and the motives of honorable gentlemen by whom those laws have been conscientiously and laboriously framed; they have, without either jus tiication or excuse, charged upon the party a selfish and corrupt use of the elective franchise; they have falsely and ma- iciously traduced the good name of the state; they have betrayed the party which they pro fessed to support, and they have forfeited all claim to public confidence"
 The delegates are practically a unit for Blaine, but will be guided by the action of any pivotal state. It is believed, however, that sooner or later Rhode Islands delegation will be found voting for Blaine

 HARRISBURG, May 4.-The state Prohibi- tion convention selected A. A. Barker, A. A. Stevens, James Black and Charles s. Wolfe as delegates at large to the national conven- tion. Electors and district delegates were also chosen. James Black, of Lancaster, was nominated for supreme judge. A resolution indorsing Clinton B. Fisk for president was adopted, and the convention adjourned. At a meeting of the executive committee the chairman was instructed to enter upon an active canvass of the state on or about June 1. The committee also instructed him to procure four wagons with tent outfits. at an expense of s40O each, to be used for prohibi- tion missionary work.

shersdan's Memoirs.

New York, May 31--A year and hall
ago Gen. Sheridan began writing his
memoirs. Last winter ne Submitted his
manuscript 60 Ohas. L.. Webster & TO-,
the publishers, but when he heard that
his book would not be issued until next
December he asked to have his manu-
script back and he revised il. The
manuscripts was ready again on May 10,
and his brother, Col. Michael Y. Sheri
dan, took it to the publishers, who an.
nounced yesterday that they had his
book in hand. A member of the firm
said last night that Gen. Sheridan had
written very interesting narrative OF
his life. He had used the fret person
and his book read like romance. 1t was
full Of the generals adventures from the
time of his graduation ut West Point at
81 to the Franco PrussiRn war, of which
he was spectator. In simple language
he has given graphic account OF his
Indian fights and his part in the late
war. The book was not statistical, he
said, and was 30 much like story. that
il would sell, even II the generals name
was not connected with 1t az the author .
Whenever Gen. Sheridan had found it
necessary to use statistics he had put
them in the form Of notes. go that the
narrative was never broken. Frequently
the writing was strong and showed q
clever literary hand, He had given o
mas!erly account of his memorable ride
from Winchester. The memoirs, when
bound, will contain two fine cngrayipgs
OF Gen. Sheridan; cuts OF his generals
and twenty.six maps prepared by the
waf department, The book will be in
two volumes. The date OF publication
had mot yet been determined upon.

from Blsine's withdrawal letter number

suit in dividing up the Blaine support

son, and Alger, and Harrison will ell get

New England end New York is to favor
either Gresham or Sherman. II is un-
derstood that in Pennsylvania Simon
Cameron has said Governor Alger would
be 3 good man to select. His state has
been strong in support OF Blaine while
Alger personally really inherits the
Logan support. Mr.. Sherman will nc

GRESHAM AND SHERMAN.

The Leading Candidates, Now That
blaine Has Withdrawn.
Washington, May 3l-The republican
congressman are actively canyassing the
situation in view OF the retirement o..
Mr.. Blaine, which all now consider final.
The very few who wish to give the
letter contrary Interpretation scarcely
have the courage of their convictions.
One question has already been pretty
we'll answered. That is, the Blaine
forces as whole cannot be transferred
to any one. II the second letter has
been 30 long withheld in order to afford
an opportunity for transfer OF the
Blaine forces as a whole, those who have
thought such transfer possible are
greatly mistaken. The Blaine men have
no common bond OF union except their
devotion to Blaine. With Blaine de-
tinltely out of the field they are con-
trolied by geographical and personal IN
huences which will be quite certain to
prevent them from all uniting upon one
candidate at the outset. The
leaders are quite generally disposed 60
the opinion that the contest as it will
first shape itself at Chicago, will be be-
tween Shermap and Gresham with Sher-
man leading on the first ballot. Allison
and Alger are looked Hpon as reserve
candidates.. Depew is not regarded ss o
candidate who is likely to receive any
serious consideration in the west. His
connection with railroads, the republic
can congressman from the western STATES
say, would make it certain that he could
not receive the nomination. But il is
also admitted that New York may have
q determining voice IN the choice OF o
candidate, and that it is now possible for
New York or New England or possibly
for one Of them TO decide who shall be
the choice OF the convention. The Sher.
man men will now rely with great
| confidence upon Pennsylvania although
the representatives of Gresham believe
that they will have following in tha,
state of which the rival candidates nov
have little knowledge. It is expected
that the south will be pretty generally
for Sherman, and that the delegates from
south OF the Potomac who were favor.
able to Blaine will now return with
eagerness to Sherman as the second
| choice. The friends OF M-. Sherman are
| very confident that he will receive q
larger vote than is now conceded by his
rivals. II il nndeniable shat as between
Sherman and Gresham, Sherman haf
much stronger support among the re-
publicana OF Washington. The latter
are spprebensige that il would be
difficult to heal the difference il
Indiana between the Harrison and
the Greshem men. It is not at all i'm
probable that the change in the situa-
tion may result in bringing some new
candidates into the field. Some OF the
Maine men, for instance. have indicated
| that it is possible that Maine may sug-
gest to the convention the propriety o
nominating Senator Fry. One Of Mr.
Fry's earnest friends says that If such 9
nomination should be made il would mol
be necessary for any man in the country
to ask who the nominee is. As the situ.
alton now appears from this point OF
view, however, the leading candidate,
appear to be Gresham and Sherman.

after next. The people of Dakota are
| evidently terribly in earnest about this
great question. If no principles of right

an obstruction to admission, regardless

Gresham In Michigan,

Kalamazoo Telegraph: The frat love
of Michigan republicans is upqaestion-
ably Blaine, and under ordinary circum-
stances the delegation from the state OF
