That there is much dissatisfaction with thc tleket, the BSBt.tl.ae ci Messrs. Scott, Gorman ant Hi-ice to tho contrary notwithstanding, is shown bj the attitude of W.

Columbus, Ohio, June 7. 'Special!.--Judge Thur? man's nomination for Vice-president was not a surprise to his fellow-townsmen nor to h'm. When the news wns carried to him to-day ut his home on Ea?t Rlch-st., the " Old Roman" was sitting quietly in his library, which he delights to cal] his " den." " Have yon any p-nrtieulnr*. ?" he ashed, nddlng: ** Please excuse mo from getting up from my chair. I nm not so decrepit an old man as thc papen have mndc me our." ? Of coursi** you will accept, Judge"" Tlie candidate wiped his face with thc famous bandanna, and laughed as he said: " Oh, yes. But you know I have not been a candidate; and as honestly as a man cnn say lt, I must say that 1 have had no ambition or desire to be the nominee. It has come to me as a surprise. I will write my letter of acceptance some time soon. There is vu hurry about it." The Judge was rending a history of Greece, but laid it down along with ti book coiled ? Parallel I-_.sag.is of Shakespeare and the Bible." He became quite enthusiastic in his refer? ence to the Democratic party, and forcibly denied that his heall li was bad or his age an impediment. ? Why, Palmerston was over eighty when he rode horseback euch titty.1* he said; "Gladstone is several years older than I am. Years ago he was in Peel's Cabinet, when I wns a member of thc XXTXth Congress." HavJn<,* resolutely defend? ed his health, Judge Thurman was interrupted with several telegrams of congrntuhition. the first, from James E. Neal, of Hamilton. Others followed from all over the country, lie read to his friends several telegrams and letters a day old, condemn? ing him for taking the nomination. ** Well, I did not want it," he saul, ** nnd I worked honestly to refuse it, but I shall not decline if requested to serve my party." Thf conversation turned on the pamphlet abusing the President, and Mr. Thurman said: " It is infamous. I never saw a man who so dot.d up__i his joung wife, and I have met them very intimately nt Washington. Thc stories of Cleveland's drunkenness are foolish. I know him well enough to call such stories Calla" Next week Judge Thurman got! to Washington with a committee to invite the President to attend the Columbus Centennial in September. He will then confer as to the policy of tho campaign, and the letter of acceptance. Hi*, health is Pta good, snd he is personally very much pleased with tho nomination. He showed his callers to the door to-day with sprightly vigor, and was extremely hapfpy In his stories of old deys in thc Senate, referring especially to the bandanna given him by Mr. Conklirig, which Mrs. Thiirmun has laid awny. As to the Republican nomination, he thinks his candidacy would nal wully aid .Sherman, but ho added: ** I am told thnt Govern.,r I'orakcr has been, as old Tom Corwin would sty, badly bitten by the Presidential spider" To-night a serenade wa* given in Mr. Timi man's honor by the Ihunnaa Club.
