BERNARD. WILMINGTON, Ni C. Thtjesday Evening, July 10, 18 34. EVENING EDITION. ; V BLAINE'S RECORD. We shall not knowingly lend these columns to misrepresenting Blaine's and Logan's records. "We shall give from time to time such information concerning their political life as we . - . t. may find in reputable papers and un- j questioned documents. It is right and proper that the acts of politi- cians should be published and scru- tinized. The people must have in- formation in-order to choose wisely and to vote for the best inter- ests of themselves and the country. vWe nave already copied some- , thing of Blaine's connection with the Mulligan letters. There will be a great deal more of this forthcoming before the election. We propose to day to refer to one of his other acts. He has been a prominent actor for . perhaps a score of years or more and he has said- and done a great tdany objectionable and . censurable things and it is altogether proper that his record should be thoroughly over ; hauled and thoroughly aired. ' f Mr. Blaine was an active anti Catholic agitator in 1 1854. . In that .year he became the editor of the Kennebec ' (Maine) Journal, y'Jae -lading rgahTof thpanti-Catholic oi-sranization in'tfeat State. In his Jtpbroved of 'prescriptive Lion against foreigners. This - - was, it may be saida long time ago. :! Bat Blaine had not changed twenty one years af ter wards. He was con nected in 1875 with an anti-Catholic organization. Gen. Grant, in ; a speech at Des Moines, Iowa, in that year, made -direct reference to the Catholics and' the school question. - . Very soon after that a letter- from . Mr. Blaine appeared upon the same subject. It was dated October 20, 1875. Here is an amendment he pro posed to the Constitution of theUni; m ted States: - "No State shall make any law respecting ; : an establishment of religion i or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, and no money raised by taxation in any State for the sup . port of public schools, or derived from any - . public fund therefor, shall ever be under the control of any religious sect, nor shall ; any money so raised ever be divided be tween religious sects or denominations. " - Why the speech of Grant ' and the . letter of Blaine, with his Constitu tional amendment? Light has been ' ' thrown upon the movement. The ' editor of the An gusta Maine Stand- p ard received -through the postoffice ';' the following letter: " ' 7 "Office of Evesino Coubikb, . "Newark, N. J., Nov. 9, 1875. f "Mr, J. O.

He originated & law that was ; passed'by the Legis lature of Illinois that is well calcula- ted to endear him to Fred Douglass and all negroes of his class. Here is section third of an infamous law: "Section 3. If any negro or mulatto, bond or free, shall hereafter come into this State and remain ten days with the evident intention of residing in the same, every such negro or mulatto shall be deemed guilty of nigh misdemeanor, and for the first ofiense shall be fined the sum of fifty dollars, to be recovered before any justice of the peace in the country where said negro or mulatto may be found. Said proceedings shall be in the name 6f the people of the State of Illinois, and - shall be tried by a jury of twelve men. ... If old Fred freedom in the has struck out for direction of Logan he . would have been compelled soon to I flee to other parts to Canada or to his friend jlorace Gfeeley whom he maligned in our hearing in 1872. We heard the in grate declare in I Metropolitan Hall. Raleigh, that was I .A7;..- o I nacked wiih negroes mainlv. in 1872. that Greeley was the best and truest friend that he had ever found that -when he was a fugitive from his mas ter it was Greeley, who stood by him and befriended him. And yet the ungrateful old miscegenist warned the negroes against him and said that he was not to be trusted since the Democrats had taken him up. Old red will pe lurid in this campaign or the author of the above law. He will be found praising the. very man who put his foot on him and all other negroes, j , But let us look farther" still auto Logan's ugly recordt 7ehaYj&b? fore given a-brief account of his re cent aesigns against tne yums. vve turn to his earlier record as a member of the Congress and, justf before the war. In the year 1859. and on 5th of February, John A. Logan, now Republican candidate for the Vice Presidency, made a speech in the House that; puts "to shame for the bitterness of its invectivej most , recent speeches. He was not "loyal" in 1859, at least, to the platforms of the party he af terwards joined. He was a red-hot Democrat,'who believed in the rigid enforcement . of ,the fugitive slave law, the jextension'of slavery to the Territories, and that the North was, by its encouragement, of Republican ism, hastening the break up of the Union." That was sound talk, but not of the latter-day Republican sort. John howls quite another doctrine now. He has "pented himself" and now he is beating the air in denunci ation of the very party that held the same views that he held. But; you. know that the mighty Logan I "Has been bred in the wars, ! . and is ill school'd. In boulted language : meal and bran to- - getner . He throws' without distinction.'.' Shakespeare with his prophetic eye saw John pawing and snorting in the Congressional arena, and he hit off hiss utter ; disregard of all grammatical restraints ' and his icon: tempt for the records of the past. In 1859, in his speech the Zuni Chief struck out right and left after this style, Said the demagogue: v - "Sir, are there not hundreds ? and hun dreds of fugitive slaves passing through Ohio, and . Illinois , and the great North, western States who belong to the ; con stituency of the , people here representing me eoutnern Btates on. this side or the House.

And still John is the candidate of "that side" for the second place on the Republican ticket. Oh shame, where; is thy bl ush I John was i a fugitive slave catcher, according, to his own confession. He is as nice' a man for the negroes to vote for as Blaine is for the Irish Catholics to vote for. But the latter will not support Blaine whilst the .negroes will fairly yell and howlforrLogan.

By Telegraph to the Morning Star.l Chicago, July 10. The Convention was called to order at 11.10 o'clock. ; ; The proceedings were opened with prayer by Rev. George C. Lprimer, of the Baptist Church of Chicago. He rendered thanks for the country where liberty has found a refuge, labor an opportunity, domestic vir lune a shield, and humanity a temple. - He craved that the nation mav be awakened to realize that not in material prosperity, nor in wealth, lay z greatness and salvation, v.-.4. 2 - :a.- A MtnMAinlaa on. through : ceiturte,, .tta . to . thU. coun- try nnerty may not aegeneraie into license, nor authority into tyranny, nor capital into oppression, nor labor into riotousness, nor conviction into bigotry and superstition, He asked for a blessing on the Conven tion.that the high sentiments and ennobling orinciDles. that fell from the lips of the speakers of yesterday may become the gov erning principles of this great party; and that its affairs of to day may be so or dered that the nominee of the Convention will be a man of lofty character, of resplen dent reputation, whose attitude t before the people shall he an inspiration to the growing manhood of the country; and that if such nominee be elected he may be a blessing to the nation and not a scourge. Carter Harrison, of I1L. rising to a per sonal explanation, repelled the intimation made by one or tne speakers yesteraay, that he had packed the hall with a clique which applauded his speech in seconding the nomination of Grover Cleveland. A communication was received and read from the chairman of the committee on Resolutions, stating that the committee, notwithstanding constant and patient ef forts, had not yet been able to complete the platform, and would not be prepared to make a complete report beiore 7 p. m. The unfinished - business of yesterday, being the call of States for nominations, was resumed. Mr. Munser, of Mo. , came to the plat form and made a nomination speech. He said Missouri would have given 32 staunch Democratic votes for the old ticket, headed bv the sage of Grammercy, and his vene rated friend from Indiana, Gov. Hen dricks, but as they could not have the old ticket, . he had been casting about to see who was the man who, m their emergency, should lead the embattled hosts of Dem ocrats to a grand aad glorious victory. Nothing short of a blunder could make the Democracy lose the election. ' With ; 25 Democratic Governors and 23 Democratic Legislatures, representing 253 electoral votes out of 401, nothing but a fatal blunder could make the Democrats lose. The man in his mind was spoken of as the "noblest Roman of them alL" Allen G. Thurman, of Ohio. I Cheers. He therefore seconded that nomination. He had looked in Thur man's face yesterday, and recognized in him the "colossal Democrat" of the coun try. With Thurman as their standard bearer, the Democracy could carry Ohio, New York and California: and in proof of this statement he repeated a conversa tion he had had with Gen. Spinola and other Tammany men, and read telegrams from Ohio and California, in conclusion he declared, before God, that the Dcm ocratic party was hungry even unto death, not for the venal spoils of office, but for the glory of doing good to their fellow beings. I Laughter and appiausej. Mr. Livingston, of Missouri, rose to second the nomination of Cleveland, but the Chairman stated that it would reauire unanimous consent. "No matter, said Mr. Lavingston, "we have got our w ork in anyhow." (Laughter!. Thomas E. Powell, of Ohio, came to the platform to put in nomination George A. Hoadly, of Ohio. He declared that If the Democratic party was true to itself its suc cess in the coming struggle was already as sured. Within the last few years he said the State of Ohio had overcome a Republi can majority of over 100,000, and at this hour the government of Ohio was in the keeping of the great Democratic party The man who had been the acknowledged leader in bringing about that changer- was the candidate who he now presentedMGor. Geore A. lloadly, of Uhio.J I Some ap plause.! Gov. Hoadly had received the largest endorsement ever given to a Demo crat in Ohio, haying received 19,000 more votes than Hancock had? received in, 1880. He was known to the nation as a great lawyer, a wise man, fearless and aggres sive leader, and a man of acknowledge abu ity, of undoubted integrity, a man of cour aare as well as of wisdom. , The State of Pennsylvania having been reached in the call, senator w m. u. Wal lace, of that State, came to the platform to nominato Mr. Randall. He. said, "by 1 di rection of the Pennsylvania delegation I come to present the name of a candidate for the great office of President of the Uni ted States, The name wmch I bring you I is found on every page of your country's and your party's history in the last two de- i cades. lAppiause.j it is mat oi no tyro in political affairs; it is mat oi a man in the prime and vigor or , his man- hoad, with every faculty trained in practical government. An official life of twenty years lies behind him clear, lu minous, and; pure. "-No dark action.no corrupt practice, has ever stained his hands. Applause. 1 While many oi his contem poraries in 'official, life have grown rich through devious and unknown means, he is still a poor man, tcheers, whose highest aim has been fitly to serve his people and his republic, a Democrat grounded in the faith and tried in the stern crucible of his party's service. ' Cheers. 1 ; The pathway of expediency lies behind us strewn with the wreck of our failures. Let us be honest now; let us stand by the record of our own pure public men ; let us boldly ap peal to the people on that record, and spurn the delusive promises of our bitter toe. The name of such a man we bring you. ma practised hand, his experienced fore sight, his conversance with public affairs, will lay the foundation of your return to power so broad, so wide, so deep, that they will be permanent. Applause. ' He has been practically the leader in the National House of Representatives for seventeen years, favoring a reduction of taxation and an economical administration of govern ment. He has boldly opposed a lav ish expenditure of the money of the people, waste of the ; public do main, and the unconstitutional and tyrannical force bills. Applause. His iron-will has put the knife to corrupt ing extravagance, and has . compelled a re turn to comparative purity of administra tion. Earnest in purpose, pure in life, the grand tribune of the people and a states man, no favor sways him and no fear can awe.. This man. (her son).

He said that there was a conviction in the land that if wisdom ocntrols the councils of the Dem ocratic party in making1 a platform broad enougn ior every Democrat to stand upon. and in placing upon it a candidate of trans- cendent ability and pure life, success lies in the result of its deliberations. rIIe believed that with Samuel J. , Randall as the candi date, bewould receive the controlling .vote in the pivotal.1 States more certainly than any other of the distinguished men named. tie asKea, wnere; aoes succesa uct not in Minnesota' not in Iowa, or in other of the; confirmed Republican States ; but in those close States which' were carried by Tllden in 3876.

There are practical efforts for re form. Mr. ! Randall would- sweep New Jersey like a great c political: cyclone.-He is the, friend - of ' the ; laborer every where, and the Convention could do no better than to nominate him." : : ' ;! : The call of the roll of States, for nomina tions was then resumed. - , ; Rhode Island beine .called the chairman of that delegation announced that Rhode Island had no candidate to offer. f Mr. Abbott, chairman of the Massachu setts delegation, said that! when the State .SfeK that delegation, he asked that John W. Cummmgs might second the nomination or Mr. Bavard. Mr. Cummings then came forward to the platform and addressed the Convention in support or the nomination . or 'inomas P. Bayard, of Delaware. It had been said that the electoral vote of the South , was sure for any Democratic nominee. The South had kept its faith unfalteringly and unflinchingly; but it must be' seen to that no Democratic Convention committed it self to a nomination that would in some degree imperil those I States in ' tho f uture. The best man j whom the De mocracv could give would be none too good to carry the l banner- or. lie mocracv. and none too; pure or high, for the great Democracy of the South. And pure and high and exalted as the nominee could be, no one couia be more so than Thomas F. Bayard, of Delaware. Cheers. They came to put tne garment oi success on their nominee. It must not be a rent and tattered garment, like that which New York presented; it must be a whole, entire, faultless garment, f Applause! A . large part of the New York delegation was bound hand and foot in this Convention. He himself represented a fighting . labor dis trict of -Massachusetts, and he could tell the Convention that if it forced upon the Democratic party a man who had rent the government of success in New York, the party would lose the State of Massa chusetts. His district was populated with working men opposed to the grasping grip of monopolists, and he declared to the Convention that if they tried to put the torn garment of New York on the candidate of the Democratic party, they would banish the labor vote and lose the election. rCheer8l. Leroy r . Yoeman. of South carotma, also seconded the nomination ' of . Mr. Bayard. I Mr. Kose. of Ark., stated mat after much consultation and consideration, the Arkansas delegation had determined unan- lmousiy to cast lis vote ior urover uieve land of New York. Applause. As to the objection that Mr. Cleveland had ene mies at home, the reply was mat no man could, with fidelity to principle, admims ter the office of Governor of New York without making enemies at home. If they found a man without enemies, they would find a man who had not that elevation of character necessary to a candidate of a great party. j When the State of Wisconsin was called it was announced that a majority of that delegation had voted to support the nomi nation of Gov. Cleveland, and had assigned its Chamnan, Gen. Bragg, to second his nomination. Gen. Bragg declared that the Young Democracy of Wisconsin loved and re spected Cleveland, not Only -for himself, for his character, for his integrity, judg ment' and iron will, but they loved him most - for the enemies that he bad made, Enthusiastic applause. CONVENTION NOTES. Chicago. July 10. 10.40 A. M. The Convention is assembling. There is an im mense crowd. It is said six of the Idwa delegates have changed from Cleveland. four going to Thurman and two to Bayard. Randall is developing- a good -deal of strength this morning. me Massachusetts delegates held a secret caucus last night. - The members are reti cent, but they admit that Butler had recon sidered his decision to withdraw from the field as a candidate and would be presented alter me second ballot.

That customs duties should be levied for the purpose of raising money for me necessary expenses oi . the government and to protect and foster American indus tries ana protect American labor; mat raw, materials, manufactured in this country,' should come in free, as should also the necessaries, which are used on the poor man s table, such as tea, coffee, etc. : and that, the tariff on luxries should be placed at me highest urmt. The weather is clear and pleasant. It is thought that a ballot will be reached mis evening, and that the final adjourn ment win xaKe piace to-day. It is said that the committee on Resolu tions nave agreed on a piatiorm. it says that no tax, direct or indirect, can be im posed upon the people except to meet the expenses , of the government; and provides that me necessaries or jire, including tea ana coffee, snail come in iree. The Tribune says the friends of Judge Field are hard at wof k and he stands well as a dark horse. I Hewitt's name is also mentioned this morning. i it is said mat a numher of Indiana and Western men favor bringing out Hendricks alter me first ballot. u Some . papers claim I that . Cleveland's strength is waning and mat Bayard is gain ing. The general impression' though is that the. situation is unchanged, and that Cleveland . will probably get the nomina tion. The Iribune puts him down for 897 on tne nrsc oanot ana uayard 147. : The Times says Bayard is looming up and that Butler has withdrawn from the contest and will support Bayard. Its esti mate is, Cleveland 850, Bayard J 192 Mc- uonaiu oa, Thurman y4. Carlisle 28, others scattering. . -j .- -. The sub-committee on Resolutions has completed a full' draft of the Platform. which it commenced to read to the full Committee at 10.80 this forenoon. The draft does not meet the approval of Gen. Butler, and he has prepared a minority "report, wnicn win ue Buomuiea to me uommittee. out it is expected mat his report will be re jected by a-heavy-voteH It is anticipated that the regular minority report may ; be submitted to the Conventiom, in which event a sharp discussion is expected to fol low, ; This may consume a great portion of to day's session. t - . . - : The following dispatch has been received irom new i ork by Mr.- Manning, ; chair man oi me Hew York delegation: New York: July 10. To Daniel Man ning, Esq., Chairman of the New York leiegattom Chicago : Reading to-dav's pro ceedings and Mr. Grady's remarks concern- ; ing lioyernor , Cleveland, 1 telegraph you mat i was a representative Irishman before Mr. Grady was bora; and as such believe I know the sentiments of -my countrymen ana Co-religionists. And Place my assertions against his. ' Nine-tenths of the Irishmen I meet are in favor of Governor Cleveland's nomination, - and the universal , sentiment expressed in this city to-night is that Mr. Grady has utterea a vne calumny against the Irish Catholics of America. n:-J .v TXr. . TJ T- i ; The hour ior tne meeting is long past and the delegates are still coming in. There are : occasional cheers and music by the band. The visitors seats are fully occupied. and the scene . is . an animated one. The Cleveland men - confidently .predict his- nomination if a ballot is reached to-day. J Among the distinguished, .gentlemen, oc cupying seats oh the platform are; Speaker Carlisle, .and lion. VV m. ll. isaglish, of Indiana, the last Democratic candidate for Vice President Hon.- Samuel J. Randall is not present. ,' ;r, -1;, ' It was manifest from the applause with which the name of Senator Bayard, was re ceived this morning, that at last the opposi tion to Cleveland has found a strong leader who is steadfastly organizing to stem the tide that has been sweeping New York on towards the goal of success. Heretofore the opposing delegates had been striking wildly : and harmlessly. The threats . of Grady and 3ochran only served to isi crease the strength of Cleveland. . When .Massachusetts appeared on the platform in the person of Mr. Cumming. to second the nomination of Bayard, it Was evident mat uen- jt. Butler was the .leader of the organized opposition, and that he expected the South to present a solid front in Bayard's support, under the leadership of Senators Hampton, Vance. Lamar and others of the States of that section. The delay in perfecting the platform is felt to be a part or me scheme, as it gives time for organization. The sub-committee of the committee on Resolutions made its report to the General Committee shortly before noon this morn ing, me majority report or me sub-com mittee was signed by all of the members with the exception of Gen, . Butler, who presented a minority report. -; The .two re ports now (12.45 if. A.) are under discus sion, and it is not expected -. that the Flat- form will be submitted to j the ; Con vention until 7. o'clock this evening. Messrs. Converse, Hewitt and Watterson were appointed a committee to punctuate and burnish up me final report: before it is sent into the Convention. The members of the committee seem to think that the platform, as it will be presented, will be satisfactory as a whole. . The situation mis morning does not differ materially from that of vesterdav morning. The second day's events of the Convention have developed only one thing. This was a stubborn determination to beat Cleveland at any sacrifice and by any means. It was generally conceded that , the action of the Tammany men in openly opposing Cleveland, was 4 without . precedent, but that it had done the New York Governor . no material harm. The Cleveland men are strong in their behalf that they can bring matters to a crisis at their option. They Could therefore afford to be generous in asking the Convention to indulge Grady in his attack upon Cleveland yesterday. " Chairman Manning was !only carrying out the policy of me Cleveland men, which is to create me impression that they are safe in their strength and can aurora. to grant a few concessions. FINANCIAL.
