The National Democratic conven- " tion, which assembled in the city of "... Chicago last Tuesday, closed its delib erations yesterday by the nomination of Grover Cleveland, of New York, for Resident, and Thomas A. Hen- -: dricks, of Indiana, for Vice President, ,, a ticket which possesses all the. ele merits of strength, and will be hailed with ; a responsive 'echo - from the : Democracy and independent reform - element of the Republican party, and , of the'independent voter Who belongs to .no party in the four quarters of mm tt . rm rvi i ; ids itepuDiic. ; x ne victory ior Cleve land was not won without a struggle. Although he was manifestly from the hfleriTminfir th r.hnieA of a Vftrv lare-fi . number of delegates, with by far a larger following than any of the other six candidates named, there was a determined and uncompromising op position to him, arising4 from a fac tion known as the Tammany organic . zation, within his own State, led by John Kelly, Mr. Grady and Gen. " 'Cochrane, three leaders of that fac tion. Their opposition was a factious ; one, and so unreasonable that it met . with but little sympathy in the con vention. : even from those who Dre- ferred another candidate to Mr. , Cleveland. Their allegation that they " were opposed to him because he could nofr rftrrr'Nflw York. the Wbrkinff men beins hostile to MnL was a mere pretense, a garb to cover theirreal cause of hostility, and the convention bo saw it and voted accordingly. - Kelly: and his faction were ignored V because they undertook to do what - they had not the power to do, to die - tate the candidate of a National con- - vention, and instead of . defeating Cleveland, their unreasonable opposi - tion really made : friends for him.: When he was declared the nominee, -John Kelly retired from the hall chagrined and disgusted with his dis comfiture. ::; y :-- lr "AU Is weUthat ends welt" The strife of three days, waged by deter- mined, resolute men, enaea at last in the fortunate selection of New York's - great reform Governor by 683 'votes 137 votes more than necessary, and - . the nomination was . promptly, amid frrflftt AntliilRiftflm mnilo linanimnna.

Chicago, July 11. The convention was called to order, at 11 o'clock. Prayer was offered' by ' Rev." Dr. Clinton Lock, of Grace church, Chi cago. He prayed that the - consulta tions of the body be for the further ance of just and equal laws, for the preservation of liberty, for the pun ishment of wrong doers and for the praise of those who do well; that every delegate should be kept from being guided by his own selfish gain, by his own pride of by his own- lik ings or dislikings. - He prayed, that in the great and noble contest which was opening before" te ; American people; there would be a cessation from strife and anger, that mens eyes should not be blinded to that which is just and fan", that aU corruption, -bribery and illegal voting be kept far away, and that after the election the whole people may join in the support of the President. ' : a gavel presented. The chairman said he had received, among other letters and telegrams from all parts - of the country, : one from , Goodwin, of - Massachusetts, with the presentation of a gavel made up from wood and relics from differ ent parts of the world. Adelegate from Pennsylvania moved that the convention now pro ceed to a second ballot. "" 1 - RANDALL WITHDRAWN. Then Snowden, of Pennsylvania, with thanks'to those who had voted for Samuel Randall, withdrew that gentleman's name. v The second ballot commenced at 11:20 with the following result: - - . . SECOND.

' y ENTHUSIASM FOBHEjNDRIKS. J 1 Here there suddenly. broke out shouts of wild, general and enthusi astic cheering, and: the waving of hats, fans and handkerchiefs. It was impossible for the chair to suppress it, although he tried.' Most of 'the delegates and spectators, took part in it. It was the first of general enthu siasm m tne Convention, it was renewed again and again, and finally the band joined in the demonstration with -' 'Hail Columbia" and other pa- triotic airs, and banners were carried around. In fact the Blaine . demon stration of five weeks 'ago fwas re peated con amore. The ' intetWiption of the proceedings must have occupied fifteen minutes. Hendricks himself was not present, having left the hall just previously. At the end of a quarter of an hour and while' the uproar was at its height, Voorhees mounted the platform and announced that at the request of the Indiana delegation he withdrew the name of Jos. E. McDonald for the purpose of and at the proper time of casting the vote of. Indiana for Thomas A. Hen dricks. " ; This renewed the cheering, which was kept up for several minutes longer. - - At length the rest of the vote of Illinois was announced - as follows : Cleveland, 38. - -: . , . ' - : CHEERS FOB CLEVELAND. This was an opportunity for the friends of the New York candidate, and they availed themselves of it, the delegation from that State rising to their feet and cheering lustily. While fans, hats and handkerchiefs waved, the band joined in with, "We. won't go home till morning,'' which seemed to . stimulate the enthusiasm. This scene lasted three or four minutes. Illinois continued: Bayard S; Mc Donald 1. (Illinois cast one vote less than the full number). Indiana gave Hendricks 30 ; Iowa gave Cleveland 22 Hendricks 4. :.

The Missouri delegation announced a change of its 32 votes solid for Cleveland. This set off the enthusiasm : again. The cheering was deafening. : s ' Flowers were carried to the New York delegation and a stuffed eagle was carried in the procession. : ; The band struck up a more patri otic air and flags and banners were waved and the excitement gained a fever point, because the Cleveland vote had nearly reached the necessa ry twethirds.

The .Tammany braves, 600 strong, took a special at 5 o'clock. .. Some of the members took the outcome jocu larly; but in the main the delegation showed bitterness of spirit, and some of the marchers showed bits of crape in their buttonholes. - ; . ." "I think the Democratic party has committed hari kari," said one of the sachems.' - A number of opinions are printed as coming from John Kelly, but he declared positively that he had not conversed with any newspaper man and that he has not ' expressed any opinion upon the situatioa and is not responsible for any statements com ing from Tamrnany members who may feel that they have encountered personal defeat. , - r : Manning and the majority; of '. the New York delegation are exuberant but moderate in their speech. - Man ning says Cleveland will surely carry New York." -. . - . , "By what majority f ; . .

(Cheers for-Black.) Judge Black' expressed his appre ciation of the high and unmerited compliment paid him.1 - It was almost absolutely a surprise to him, but he had come here as a spokesman and a representative of another citizen of the Republic, had put his hand in the hand of Joseph E. McDonald and while that gentleman's name vwas before the convention he (Black) could hot appear as hisrival for any Sosition.. He, therefore, respectfully eclined the nomination. - Munn. of Illinois, hoped that the declination would not be accepted He paid a high compliment to Gen. Black. Pinlow, of Kansas, 1 presented the name of Geo. W. Glyck. - A delegate from Missouri seconded the nomination of McDonald. " Faulkner, of Mississippi, seconded the nomination of Gen. Rosecrans.

Hendricks. " (Cheers.) Waller, of Connecticut, seconded the nomination of Hendricks, and said that the Democratic party would in defiance of fraud and in accord ance with the law place him in the chair of the Vice President. : The presentation of Hendricks' name was greeted with enthusiastic cheers, the convention repeating in a lesser degree the scene which took place at the moaning session in honor of the same gentleman. . Menzies, lot Indiana, declared em phatically tnat Hendricks was not , and could not be a candidate for the Vice Presidency. - He had . been au thbrized by Hendricks himself to say so.- He therefore warned the con vention not to do that which it would have to undo. . . Walsh, of Georgia, " asked Menzies whether he was authorized to say that Hendricks Will not accept a unanimous nomination of the nation al Democratic .convention for the office of Vice President. ' Menzies repeated his statement. -; Waller, of Connecticut, said his State had surely no desire to force upon Indiana a candidate against its will, but this was . not an Indiana convention. It was a national con vention. - The Democracy ; of the country had a right to make its choice. - (Cheers.) If any man said that he knew that Hendricks at this time was not patriotic enough to take the nomination tendered under those circumstances he would with draw his name, but with humiliation. .Wallace said that Hendricks had once been chosen Vice President and had been despoiled of the office. The Democracy; of the Republic demanded of him the use of his name as a can didate and they would not take "no" for an answer. He moved to suspend the rules and nominate ; Thomas A. Hendricks as the candidate for Vice President by acclamation. (Cheers.) ; Harris, of Virginia, united the voice of Virginiawith that of the Keystone State. (Cheers.) Searles, of California, withdrew the nomination , ef Rosecrans. The other nominees Jwere all with drawn, one by one, so that Hendricks alone remained before the convention. ' Hubbard, of Texas, made a spirited speech in favor : of giving to Hen dricks the office out oi which he had been cheated. ' ' -. v y Weed, of New York, suggested that the roll of States should be called so as to put on record the unanimous vote for Hendricks Wallace accepted the suggestion and withdrew his motion to nomi nate by acclamation. . ...

' - " . Tliis.' was at the close of the-. call, making the result a unanimous vote. A scene of wild enthusiasm follow ed the announcement surpassing any similar demonstration during the convention. Cheer followed cheer and with waving Of handkerchiefs and flags, the bands struck up spirit ing airs, "Old Lang Syne," "AmeriJ ca," and other airs, the chorus, being sung by several thousand voices.

As the meeting was rather Impromptu, and mat ters of great Importance were to be acted upon, it was -deemed advisable that a, full meeting of those Ukely to take part in the movement should be in vited to participate.
