By reference, to our telegraphic dis patcher It Will be seenlthat twenty eight ballota were taken yesterday at the Chicagoimyentioi and - so far without any . practical Result.'- Grant commenced with 305 vote3, and on the last ballot he had 307. On the fifteenth ballot he went up to 309, but quickly fell back to the starting point. On the other hand. Blaine led off with 284 votes, and on the last ballot had fallen to 279. The friends of Sherman, Wash burne, Edmunds and Windom manfully: bring up the rear for their respective fa vorites, apparently without any hope of success. Grant has been in the . lead from the beginning, and in all human probability he will carry off the honors if his friends possess the pluck and en- durance which they claim. We anticipate a change in the pro gramme to-day. BoWi Edmunds and fV. ...4 Washbufne are known to be for Grant, X and if they can influence their friends in the convention the combined vote of these two candidate will bring Grant up to within five votes of a nomination, and he can be nominated without a single vote from Blaine or Sherman. On the other hand the Blaine and Sher man vote combined cannot nominate their man. By reference to the table of votes by States it will be, seen that Noi UiCaAiina 'gives'ilrant six votes while SfoermaHgetMr- Ifc is believed in the event of a break-up that these fourteen Sherman votes willbe immedi ately transferred to the Grant columns, when it oOmes - to a choice between Blaine and the "man on horseback." And the same may be said of other Southern States. As the reader has al ready perceived, The Observer still sees Grant as the probable nominee of the Chicago convention. THE GRADED SCHOOL VOTE. 1 ' Reference to our local columns will showthat the graded school question has not been carried with that majority which settles the: matter beyond ques tion ; in fact the result is claimed by friends as well as the opponents of the measure. The law under which the graded school was to have been established, provides that the board of aldermen of the city may order a new registration, and as it was claimed that it was de feated the last time because of the in correctness of the registration lists, the board decided to have a new registra tion for this particular election. Ac cording to this registration the follow ing is regarded as a possible vote: Ward 1 .532 Ward 2... 895 Ward 3 450 Ward 4 285 Total 1,662 According to this it requires 832 votes to adopt, and the following was the vote cast : ; Ward i . . . i . . . .; 242 Ward 2 218 Ward 3 231 Ward 4 124 Total . 15 Or 17 less than a majority of the reg istered vote? 'Only one vote was cast gainst ithrthetrity. The friends)f the measure claim that enough-Njmtoperfy? registered names can be eliminated from the registration y books to make the vote cast yesterday a 4 majority of the possible vote, but this is a question of doubt in the first case, and a question of legality in the second. We do not know where the matter will end, but we have good reason to believe if the law Ss attempted to be carried out, it will be tied up in the courts, and pro bably lost in the maze of legal techni calities. Seventeen more votes for the meas ure would have settled it. Is it not a shame and a disgrace that a measure of this magnitude shall be lost by the lack of so small a -number of votes? The Observer for five years has advocated this or some similar measure in the in terest of popular education, and now reaches tbe.conclusion that the people of the city do not desire public schools. It is a step backward which will do more to retard the advancement of the material interests than any other one thing, as we see it ( .Someof , our best and most progressive men have oppos ed the measure from the beginning, and we have sometimes doubted wheth er we bave not bdeiunistal&n in its ad vantages. If ' we know ourself we would do nothing, nor advocate any measuie,whicJLjypuld work injury to thecity, but it seemathat a majority of our people do not think as we do.

The nroDositioh made by The Obsek- VER.to put up Gen. Scales, as the" Dem ocratic candidate for: Governor, has been caught by the mocratip. State press, and at this writing tne iaea prom ises more than a meaningless boom, but we may as well say to the friends of Gen. Scales that there is little nope of his nomination, without a .very ac tive canvass, in., his ; interest. Public sentiment among Democrats has al ready crystalized to a. very great extent towards either Go jr. Jaxvjs or Judge FowleV and with tbings as they now ntAntMCiAv. Jartfs will probably he nominated oh the first ballot. This is as the matter now stands, but of course it may all be changed in the next ten days. This is, however, not likely, without hard work. Counties that have instructed will hold their delegates up to Lthe instruc tions, and there is not time to arouse public sentiment to such an extent as to create a feeling in favor of uen. Scales we very ranch fear; Hlii admir ers are handicapped- hy the fact that their chief, so far from desiring to en ter the race, has steadily discouraged the use of his name, and indeed it is clear it would be an actual sacrifice on his part. These facts cannot fail to have their in fluence in any canvass that can be made in his interest. In addition to ,this, late yesterday envening The Observer received the following telegram which only confuses matters further: o GREENSBORO,N.Cnne 7,1880$ p.m. To the Editor of The Observer: fti M The foflowing is a cop a- tele gram received from Gen. Scales at 4:41 to-day : "You are right, I am not and will not be a candidate for Governor. (Signed,) A. M. Scales Geo.1 TL Gregory. Ch'm DenL fix Com6thDist- In the letter which The Observer published last Friday from Gen. Scales, he said substantiallwbat he says in the above telegram, "that he is not and will not be a candidate," but in that letter he said he would take the nomination if it were tendered him, and he does not say to the contrary in the telegram, but we shall probably have something more definite ina day or two. - -: One thing we notice With "pleasure, and that is that the tone of the Demo cratic press has been very much modi fied within the last few days. The bickering and bitterness between the rival candidates that was exhibited ten days ago seem to have been discarded to a certain extent, and if the introjec tion of Gen. Scales's name into the can vas has had or can have no Other effect, that much at least will have been ac complished. JUDGE SCHENCK AND CONGRESS. A knowledge of the fact that the Ca barrus vote in the Rockingham conven tion is a Schenck vote in disguise; the arrival of a part of the Cabarrus dele gation to that convention, and the simultaneous arrival of Judge Schenck from Lincolnton, yesterday evening, set the politicians, to surmising why was all this thus. The' knowing newspaper man is aware of the fact that an injunc tion case between the Carolina Central and the Richmond & Danville Railroad companies, is to be tried to-day at Chambers by Judge Schenck, and that Col. Paul B. Means is attorney for the Richmond & Danville Railroad com pany, but whether this explanation goes far enough is another matter. Judge Schenck has for some time been regarded as a possible "dark horse", in the congressional race, but it is be lieved that he has done nothing to help the boom forward. It is understood that Col. Hoke has made his canvass with an eye to this very contingency, and that under no possible circum stances could the Hoke vote be thrown for Judge Schenck in the convention. With all the conflicting interests and opinions which are to be brought to light at Rockingham, the nomination of Judge Schenck can hardly be enter tained. Of the 305 votes that Grant seems to have a mortgage on at the Chicagoon vention, 153 are cast by Southern States, Which in all probability cannot give him a single electoral vote in case of his nomination. Queer, isn't it? - Speech of 9lr, Voorhee on tbe Negro Exoda. Cor. Richmond Dispatch. Senator Vborhees this afternoon madA a lengthy speech on the negro exodus, which will be widely circulated and ex tensively read. He Showed' from the testimony of numerous Republicans, lireen backers, and Democrats that it was a conspiracy gotten ud secretlv bv Republican leaders to introduce into Indiana 12,000 negro Republican voters with a view of coritrollinr that Sfcafc in November. He drew a striking picture of the condition of Indiana, and declar ed that its citizens, without regard to party, had testified that it did not need laborers from abroad on its farms or in its workshops, because there are more there now than can find profitable em-. pioyment. while Indiana did not in vite the negroes to come within her bor ders neither did North Carolina drive them away. He quoted from the testi mony of intelligent colored men to show how kind the white people of "the North State"havebeen to.the color ed people.and also to show that colored people seduced from their comfortable homes there to go to Indiana to better their condition were the victims of a heartless political conspiracy. Southern members listened with a good deal of interest to this capital speech. Savannalt Sc Charleston Road lion of Directors. Elec- Charleston, S. C, June 7.

The Grant men profess confidence, but do not look it. They admit their vote will fall: below three-hundred on the . first ballot; but urge that it will increase on subsequent roll calls, and they will win as soon as the friends Of Shermait and ithet other nominees, whoare loiter in the lists, shall see that the .contest is between Grant and Blaifie. The f rieads f -the latter do not talk, but appear equally confident and resolute. It looks to-day as if their vote might lead Grant's on the first ballot, but no prediction will be safe in the present condition of affairs. 10 :30.

Campbell, of West Virginia, attempted to make a state ment as to the vote, but it was ruled out of order, and he then cast the vote. Immediately afterwards, Butterworth, of Ohio, attempted to make a question of privilege of it, and stated that Camp bell's object was to present the vote of the alternate, but he, too, was ruled out of order.

SYNOPSIS OF YESTEUDAY'S PKO- CEEOINOS. Washington, June 7. Senate. The Senate proceeded . to consider the calendar bill to ascertain the amount of tbe claim of Jos. R. Shannon, of Louisiana. It was recommitted. The bill to reduce the price of public lands within railroad limits from $2.50 per acre to $1.25 per acre, after discusr sion, was passed. The morning hour having expired, the unfinished business, which was the Kellogg-Spofford resolutions, was taken up. Mr, Gall supported the resolutions and argued that in seating Mr. Jonas, the Senate decided the Nichols Legisla ture to be the legal Legislature of Lou isiana, and, therefore, the Packard Leg islature could not nave been alawlul body. He then read an elaborate argu ment against the applicability of the doctrine of res adjudicate, to this case. Mr. Johnston also supported the reso lution,-concluding that Kellogg was not constitutionally elected and was guilty or currupt practices, lie also argued that the former action of the Senate might and should be revised. McDonald gained the noor but gave way to other business, lie will speak oji the resolution to-morrow. ecK, irom tne committee on appro- priations.reported with amendments the ci ii appropriation b 1'. Placed on the calendar. The House bill providing govern ment suits against timber trespassers on public lands prior to March 1st, 1879, and" enabling defendants in suits now pending to settle them by acquiring title to lands under existing laws, was called up and advocated by Jones, of Florida. The reduction from $2.50 to $1.25 per acre of lands whose price was raised more than 20 years before the passage or this act on account ot grants of alter nate sections for railroad purposes, was stricken out. As thus amended the bill was passed. House. A very small number of bills was introduced and referred this morning under a call of States. Haskell, of Kansas, moved to suspend the rules and pass the Senate bill rati fying the Indian agreement, with amendment of the House committee thereto. After an hour's debate the motion was agreedto and the bill passed Adjourned. NOMINATIONS. The President sent to the Senate to day the nomination of Wm. C. Gorgas, ot Alabama, to be assistant surgeon m the army. A DUEL IIS VIRGINIA. W. C. Elam, Editor of tbe "Whigr," and Col. Tbo. Smith have a Hostile IHectiuff Elanl Seriously Wounded. IRiChmond, June 7 Warrants were issued to-day for the arrest of W. G Elam, editor of the Whig, and Colonel Thomas Smith, son of ex-Gov. Wm Smith, on a charge of engaging in a duel, and Joseph B. Walters, business manager or tne Whig, and Gen. W. H Payne, for encouraging and promoting said duel. The meeting took place yes terday morning near this city, almost on the identical ground where the fatal McCarthy-Mordicai affair occurred sev eral years since. Elam fell at the first fire of his oppo nent, the ball taking effect in the centre of his chin, splitting the bone and frac turing the right jaw bone. The wound is severe but not considered dangerous. Warrants were served on Elam and his alleged second, Mr, Walters, but Elams condition precluding nis re moval he was paroled. Walters was arrested but subsequently bailed in $1,000 for his appearance next katur day. ' Col. Smith and his party have not been arrested. It is reported that they immediately after the duel proceeded in the direction of West Point where they intend to take the steamer for Balti more, thus getting beyond the jurisdic tion of the state. Tne meeting nad its origin in an article which appeared in the Whig last Tuesdny, headed r -Political Powers." and which denounced in unmeasured terms the funders or so much of the conservative party as have utterly repudiated the old name under which it nad masqueraded and assumed a new style, the Democratic party of , V irgmia. This denunciation embraced all the leaders since 1840. and included the Governor of Virginia, Wm. Smith, who was the chief executive of the State at the close of the war, hence the implication or nis son m the present anair. Resignation of Col. Polk. Ralelgb News. , Col. 1. L.
