Elaine Stock Weakening; No Ballot Yet Union of Opposition to Him The Epencsr Delegation Excluded Few Spectators Woman Suf fragists on the Floor A Bogus Vote Reported Rules for the Bal lot. Washington, D. C, June 15. The wires are so occupied with specials that the Cincinnati gossip did not reach here until early this morning. The summary complied at 2 o'clock is as follows : Blaine has weakened, but the defections from him do not centre on any particular-eandidater Blaine's letters haTe been widely distributed and the defection is attributed to careful reading of them. 263 votes are now considered his hiehest point. Louis iana may vote for Hartranft. Indiana will adhere to Morton. He is gaining South. Conkling's friends have been more active in taking from Blaine's strength than adding to Conkling's. A union of opposition, no matter for whom, seems their present object. The friends of Ilaycs are encouraged and Bristow'a cheerful. Gov. Alcorn, of Mississippi, is square for Bristow. The Committee on Credentials voted out the Spencer delegation from Alabama. The Committee on Rules have adopt ed a new rule, forbidding change after once cast during a ballot. This is to prevent stampedes, mistakes and frauds. Cincinnati, June 15. The Commit tee on Credentials had a considerable discussion before excluding the Spen cer delegation, from Alabama. The vote was 24 to 17. Bristow's friends are rejoicing over this gain of 20 votes. The Convention is engaged with com mittee reports. There will be no bal loting till evening, possibly not till to morrow. The Committees on Rules are debating a proposal to reconsider the vote by rule against changing votes once recorded. Half the seats in the spectator's portion of the hall are va cant. Geo T Hoar, of Massachusetts, pre sented a memorial of the National Woman's Suffrage Association, and moved that Mrs. Sayler I Spencer bo heard ten minutes. Applause. At the conclusion of her speech the Com mittee on Rules reported. The Atlantic & Pacific Company have the first ballot bulletined as fol- ows : Conkling 135, Blaine 2S1, Bris- tow 140, Morton 121, Hayes 50, Hart ranft 52. This must be bogus, as the Western Union have a wire running into the Convention hall and report no ballot yet. By the rules, the States were called alphabetically ; next the Territories and the District of Columbia. The Territories have 2 votes. The vote of each delegation will be reported by its chairman. The report on credentials will be disposed of before the Platform Committee report. The platform and resolutions shall be disposed of before the nomination of candidates. When any State has announced its vote, it shall so stand until the ballot is an nounced unkss in case of numerical 1 1 i error, a ten minutes speecn win dc allowed on each nomination. aiutim iinnf. cotton TO rc-r.is rr doztn: veiy fine EwifcS Muslin SO ecnts per . - - - - - . i isfni Rir.k Pir,. mr.i wide, at 124 cents (a great bargain,); unequalled Stock J UJ U 1, X. l VI I J I 14 ' k.

A letter from Jef ferson Davis was read at a meeting at the residence of Earl Shrewsbury, for the furtherance of Church and Uni versity education in the Southern States.

The Judge of Ko Ballottins Until To-Day Jewell, Morton, Bnstow, Blaine and Conk ling, Put in Nomination Immense Enthusiasm Over Blaine's Name Tke Platform Adopted Inclination Toward Specie Hot Speech from Ingersoll. Cincinnati, June 15. There was a minority report in the Alabama con test; the vote on the adoption of the minority report was yeas 354, nays 375 rejected. Hawley, of Connecti cut, from the Committee on resolu tions, reported. Tho report opened with congratulations ou the part of Republican party, since under Provi dence it was called upon lo"Iptrrg country of slavery and establish the government by the people for the peo ple. He declared that the United States is a nation, not a league; and the Republican party is the defender of popular government. He proceed ed to state in detail the action of the party in protection of our citizens ev erywhere, to steady progress, and to specie payment. Applause. Sena tors and Representatives should not dictate appointments; fitnes3 and ca pacity should be passports to office, and its maintainance. Unfaithful of ficers to be swiftly punished. Recom mends a constitutional amendment agaiust appropriations for schools un der sectarian control. Applause. The latter was read in response to loud calls and cheers. Renew and re affirm our opposition to further grants of lands for railroad purposes. Asserts the duty to protect immigration. Sug gested very moderate resolutions rela tive to urging into effect of the Mon golian immigration on moral political grounds. Favored respectful consid eration of woman's claims to partici pation in the government. Re-aifirm-ed the duty of suppressing poligainy; the duty to soldiers. Recognized and deprecates sectional strife as argued. The Democratic party as the same in character and spirit as when it sym pathized with and allied to treason, and accused it of being unworthy and incapable. Grant deserves the con tinued gratitude of the, people for his patriotism and services. The ques tion was next stated to be on the finan cial resolution. Davis, of Texas, from the commit tee on resolutions, reported a substi tute rcsolutiondeclaring distinctly that thereshall be no further postponement of specie resumption beyond the date already fixed by law for such resump tion. He thought the resolution of the committee too indefinite, and in effect only remitted the question in volved to the domain of promise. Hawley replied that he thought that in declaring the principles to govera a great party during four years, it was better to confine ourselves to declaring tho fundamental principles without going down to the specific de tails, but leaving the latter to be ad justed in accordance with events. Ap plause. When he said "resumption at the earlest practicable moment," he meant it. Applause. The resolution was voted down. The resolution reported was adopted and the whole platform was also adopted. The Chair announced that the next business was the nominations. A movement to adjourn was voted down. Kellogg, of Connecticut, nominated Marshall Jewell, and briefly stated his record. R WThompson, of Indiana, nomi nated Oliver P Morton. He gave him a fine record and denied physical un fitness for position. Great applause. Pinchback seconded the nomination. Gen Harlan nominated Bristow, Great applause. Judge Poland, of Vermont seconded the nomination. Curtis also seconded the nomination. Richard H Dana, of Massachusetts, also seconded the nomination. He knew no one so sure of carrying Mass aschusetts. Applause and hisses. Blaine was called up in a scene of the wildest enthusiasm, the delegates and spectators rising to their feet, waving bats, fans, cheering long and loud dy ing away only to be renewed, and closed with three cheers for Blaine. Mr. Ingersoll, of Illinois, took the platform. He said he, too, was satis fied with the loyalty of Mr. Bristow, but if Massachusetts cannot carry any nominee of this Convention, he was not satisfied with the loyalty of Mass achusetts. If they cannot carry it by 76,000, they better sell out Fanuel Hall for a Democratic hall, applause and remove the monument from Bunker Hill. He urged that the party demand now for President, a reformer after as before the election; a man of political estate, alman experienced, applause a man of integrity, one who knew en ough to know that the national debt must be paid through, the prosperity of the American people. That money must be made not by law but by laber. Nothing could be more effective and impressive than the speaker's state ment of the requirements of the peo ple and the Republican party ,growing out of the necessities of the hour. Each sentence was forcibly epigram atic, and elicited its round of applause, especial- not demand that he shall present a certificate of character from the Con federate Congress. Frye followed in support of the nom ination of Maine's ideal son. Mr. Woodford nominated Conkling. He presented the honored name of Roscoe Conkling. Great applause. He said : "Broad in culture, eloquent in debate, wise in counsel, fearless in leadership, true to the old Republican party as the needle to the pole, he needs neither defense or eulogy." Washington, June 15. The Conven tion adjourned after the nominations, without proceeding to take a ballot. W. R. BUR WELL, & CO. A Contention of Southern colored men ia to be held in Augusta, Ga., on the 26th of June, the purpose of which, as announced in a circular inviting attendance, ia " to confirm a final de- from the -republican party, with its loathsome corruption, and forever hereafter cast our vote for bet ter men and a better fTarty." It is not likely, however, that such a movement will gain much qeadway, for the pres ent at least, as the republican mana gers may be expected to hold their colored forces well inthand through out the South during the approaching campaign. Texas Progressing. Who shall say that Texas is not progressing, when it is known that a bill providing that no man shall act as a juryman, unless he can read and write the Fnglish lan guage, has passed the Senate with but live dissenting votes. Let it pass both houses and be approved by the Gover nor. It isn't good republican radical ism, it is true, which puts the ignorant f.eedmen of the South not only on juries, but on the Bench, but it is com mon sense and decency, and that is enough.
