Be fore the convention enters on the important duties that have called us together, 1 ask your attention for a single moment. During the convass just ended, there has been mani fested in many sections of the country, con siderable bitterness which I trust will entirely disappear before entering upon the grave du ties devolving upon us. Let there be but one motive governing our action, and let there be a determination to place in nomination the strongest possible candidates, not strong in themselves, but strong in the confidence and affections of the people, and men who will command the respect of the whole civilized word. When the nominations are made and the ccnvention hi s completed its woik, let there be but one sentiment animating all earnest, sincere and unselfish Republicans, and let that be that each shall vie with the other in carrying our grand old party through the coming contest to victory. Mr. Cameion then nominated Hon. G. F. Hoar, of Massachussets, temporary chairman. The nomination was agreed to with great applause. Mr. Hoar in taking the chair said: Gentlemen of the Convention: I $12.001 thank you for this distinguished mark of your confidence. It is twenty years since the Republican convention met in this city, which, alter a stormy but friendly contest put in nomination Abraham Lincoln and Hannibal Hamlin. Lincoln has gone to his rest His companion upon that ticket, in a decidedly fresh and *1.00@3.00 $3.20 vigorous age, is present with I'" day to give us counsel from the store of an experience gathered from a life of honorable Service. The Democratic party was ruled then as now by the south. 1 lie single purpose of its being was to (five political supremacy to the oligarchy of the south and office to its sub-servant northern allies. In the pursuit of that end, every great public interest was sacrificed or disregarded, expanding little for public improvements, eiuw-r iu the west or in inland rivers or lakes. '1 lie Democratic uaity confronts us to-day, as I BiiW, unchanged in purpose, in temper, iu chancier, united in nothing else, proposing no other measure of policy, it urges its war fare jjpou the safeguards which the nation hits thrown arouud the purity of its elections. It call see no other evil except that a free man should east a free vote under the pro tection of national authority. In Louisiana and Mississippi it is the accomplice of the White league and the ku ,klux. In South Carolina it takes the honest ballot from the box and stuffs the tissue ballot. In its plat e hi New York it issues fraudulent naturaliza tion papers, three score thousands in number. Iu Maiue its ambitious larceny tries to piller a whole State government at once. Iu Delaware it looks with complacency on the whipping post. As in war it found in the con atitutiou uothing which could protect the na tion, so in peace it fouud nothing there which oan protect the national honor. Can you tind in the history of the Democratic party for the past sixteen years anything that the Demo cratic party has either done or tried '.o do, ex cept to break down legal safe-guards so as to inake these things possible?

Mr. Hale of Maine offered a resolution that the roll of the states be called, and that mem- r\f tha AAmmWtaa /v*% for members of the committee on permanent organizations, rules, credentials and of resolu tions. When the names of Senator Conkling and Gen. Garfield were reached by the secre tary in calling the committees there were loud cheers, which were repeated with great hearti ness. The Territory of Utah was omit ted from the roll by mistake of the Secretary. This caused a little discussion and explana tion, when Utah was placed on the roll. A resolution was adopted that all contests should be referred to the committee on cred entials without debate or recommendation by the convention. When Illinois was called a contest was re corded in behalf of the ten Congressional dis tricts of that 8tate, by Mr. Henderson, a dele gate to this convention from the State of Iowa. The various States were called and the chairman gave notice as a rule, that the cre dentials of the regular delegations had been sent to the desk of the secretary and where contests were announced in the same manner of the other delegations, as in the case of Pennsylvania, by the chairman, and gave notice to the same efiect In Penn sjlvania two contests in congressional dis tricts, sixth and ninth, were recorded. This business being nearly concluded, Mr. Conk ling, in behalf of the Republicans of Utah, pre sented a protest and contest from that body, which was, according to the rule, sent to the committee. The committees on credentials, ruleB, busi ness and permanent organization and resolu tions were assigned rooms, and at once pro ceeded to transact business in the quarters ad- r% Mr. Conkling obtained the floor and said one or two of these committees might report this p. m. or evening, but at least one, that on credentials, would not be ready to report un til to-morrow morning.

He therefore moved marked that this seemed to be proper action as nothing could be accomplished by an even ing session which would not be done as well or better in the early hours of the morning. The June 3, avast, expectant crowd was present at the opening of the convention at 12 M. Rev. A. Noble D. D., in eloquent words invoked the divine blessing on the day's pro ceedings. Mr. Conkling asked the committee on credentials if they were ready to report The chair understood they would not be ready for several hours. Mr. Conkling said it was and who were not members of the convention before proceeding to business. He moved an adjournment to six o'clock in the evening. The motion was opposed—a debate ensued. A vote was taken and was largely against ad journment The committee on rules, at its session last night, adopted the Cincinnati convention of 1876, with three exceptions, one of them im portant First—The order has been changed. Second—A section has been added to rule eight which will do away with the unit rule, allowing individual delegates to vote as they please. It now reads as follows Rule eight—In the record of the vote by States, the vote of each State,Territory and the District of Columbia shall be announced by the chairman, and in case the votes of any 8tate, Territory or the District of Colum bia shall be divided, the chairman shall an nounce the number of votes cast for any can didate, or for or against any proposition but if exception is taken by any delegate as to the correctness of such announcements by the question.

Mr. Frye then withdrew his motion, and moved to adjourn till five o'clock p. m. After remarks by Mr. Frye, the chair put the ino tion and declared the recess taken till 5 o'clock p. m. The convention met at 5 P. M-, pursuant to adjournment and was called to order by the chairman. Mr. Henderson, of Iowa, said: I understand that the committee on credentials will not be able to report at this session of the convention, 1 therefore move, Mr. Chairman, that the committee on rules be now requested to make their repoit to the convention, sc that we may proceed with the business The motion was discussed at considerable length, and with a good deal of spirit, and was lost, yeas 318, nays 406. This vote is considered a test of the Grant and anti-Grant strength in the convention. The committee on amend ments not being ready to report, the conven tion adjourned until Friday morning, June6l. to await their report A special of Thursday afternoon, June says: There was another notable incident Garfield came in about fifteen minutes late, and as he walked down the aisle he was greet ed with great applause. This applause was significant, because it came from the delegates and not from the galleries. Again when he rose to explain the situation of the commit tee on rules, the applause was great Ohio is playing fast and loose with Sherman, and if there Is a general break up, I would rather have Garfield's chances than Sherman's. I met Garfield this morning aud asked his views of the situation. He replied Grant is defeated beyond peradventure, and beyond that every, thing Is at sea. If Grant is defeated, he is quite right in saying ail is at sea, with almost a cer tainty that it will be neither Blaine nor Sher man. Much rain having fallen during the morning of Friday, June 4, the third day «f the convention, the day dawued cool aud cloudy. The delegates were well tired out by attendance 011 committee meetings and by the active canvass of the previous evening, and were slower than ever in getting to their seats. At 10 45 A. M. the convention was called to order. The chairman called on Rev. Arcliur Little of the New England Congrega tional church, who ottered prayer. The chair at once recognized Mr. Conkling, win* -offered a resolution which he hor",d would be unanimously adopted, otherwise he would call for a division. It was as follows: Resolved, As the sense of this convention, that every member of it is bound in honor to support its nominee whoever that nominee may be, and that no inan should 11 old a seat here, who is not ready to so agree. The vote was taken, one or two negatives being heard, Mr. Conkling suggested a call of the roll of the States. Agreed to. Mr. Conkling ottered the following resolu tion. Resolved, That the delegates who have vot ed that they will not abide the action of the convention don't deserve and have forfeited their votes in the convention, (loud and con tinued applause After a long, excited and angry debate iaterrupted with cheers and hisses the resolution was withdrawn. The re port of the committee 011 credentials was called for, but the chairman not being pres ent, the report of the convention on rules were called for, with the understanding that no action be taken upon it until after action on the report of the committee on credentials. Mr. Garfield, chairman of the committee on rules, then submitted the report. Mr. Sharpe of New York then presented a minority report. Both reports were laid aside for the report of the committee on credentials. Mr. Conger, chairman of the committee, presented the port Mr. Fessenden, secretary of the committee, then read the report. In the State of Louisiana the committee re commend the admission of the delegation with their alternates, headed by Henry C. Warmouth, and the exclusion of the delega tion with their alternates headed by Taylor Bettier. The committee flnd that this contest rose out of two rival conventions. The facts the Louisiana case are already familiar to the public. a Second—The committee recommend on the Fourth Congressional district of Alabama, James T. Rapier for admission as a delegate from said district. The committee found that Mr. Rapier had been requested to pledge sop port to Grant, and upon his refusal the presi dent of the convention was requested to with draw his credentials unless he would within twenty-four hours give such pledge. This was refused. Third—The committee in the Seventh Con gressional district of Alabama recommended that Wm. H. Smith and Willet Warner be ad mitted in the place of Arthur Brigham aud R. A. Mosely. The facts in the case of Messrs. Smith and Warner are substantially the same as shown in the case of Jas. T. Rapier. Fourth—The committee recommended the admission of the following delegates within the State of Illinois in place of the sitting members: First Congressional district Wm. Campbell, Elbridge G. Keith Third Con gressional district Washington H. E. Sing, Elliot Anthony: Fourth Congressional district, W. Marsh, Lot B. Smith Fifth Congress ional district, Robert E. Logan, W. H. Hol comb: Sixth Congressional district James H. Edsall, John P. Hand Ninth Congressional district John A. Gray, William Telden Gay Tenth Congressional district, John Fletcher, Henry Tubbs Thirteenth Congressional dis trict, F. Low, E. D. Blenn Seventeenth Con gressional district. Wm. G. Koettner, D. E. "OOOlHIge. The committee find that a State Convention was held at Springfield, Illinois, on the 29th day of May, to elect delegates to the national convention. During the convention the del egates from each of the foregoing Congress ional districts assembled and organized a dis trict convention and elected two delegates and two alternates to the Chicago convention by a clear majority of all the delegates elect ed to the State convention in each of said dis tricts, as is shown by the credentials accom panying this report. The State Convention by means of a committee of one from each congressional district selected, and afterward assumed to elect two delegates to the nation al convention, including the sitting members from the foregoing districts, the delegates from each of which tiled in the State Conven tion protest against said election by the State convention. The committee report against the validity of the contests in the second dis trict of Illinois, of the seats of sitting mem bers, A. M. Wright and R. S. Tuthill. Sixth—The committee report against the objections to the seats of the delegates at large from Illinois. Seventh—Kansas: The committee recom mend the admission as delegates, frem the second district of Kansas, T. C. Sears and L. L. Day, and from the third district, Thomas Anderson aud John M. Steele, and that the ten present sitting members be allowed to vote in their seats and to cast six, votes. A State convention was held at Topeka March 31,1880, and all the sitting members elected by one resolution. During the convention, district conventions were notified by the chair man, and in the Second ana Third districts the contestants were elected in such district at the time and places mentioned and certified, and the committee find that they were the choice of a majority in those districts. Eight—Pennsylvania: In the ninth congres sional districts of Pennsvlrania the committee report against the validity of the contest made by A. Klein, and E. K. Martin. Ninth—The cemmittee report against the contestants D. H. McKinney and H. H. Mc Dorran iu the Nineteenth Congressional dis trict o iPennsylvania. J* V* Tenth—West Virginia: In the Third Con gressional district. The committee recom mend that the sitting members, C. D. Randell and S. A. Martin, be allowed to retain their seats. MINORITY REPORT. The minority report was then read. The minority while concurring In so mnch of the report of the majority, as reports the names of the delegates and alternates, whose seats are not contested, beg leave to state that they ditler from the opinions of the majority in respect to their application of the principle of district representation in a national conven tion. The adoption of the views of the major ity resulted practically in changing the tradi tions and practices of the Republican partv in many States where from time immemorial,the State conventions have selected deleagtes to na tional conventions. When Republicans in na tional convention assembled shall lay down a system to govern future action in the selec tion of delegates, it is probable that the Re publicans in every State will cheerfully con form to such rule, but we declare as our de liberate judgement that the majority propose for the adoption of this convention an expost facto rule which will operate with great in justice and virtually arrests the power of this national convention seating delegates chos en in violation of the long established usages of the Republican party of the State to be af fected thereby. This action we affirm is cal. culated to subiect this country to the criti elsm of deciding contest, with a view of af fecting the final result of the nominations for President and Vice President. In reference to the contest of the three seats from A abama, we report that Jas. T. Rapier, Willet Warner and Wm. P. Smith, are not del egates to this convention from Alabama, and that 11 vacancy iu the delegation exists as tothe place claimed by Mr. Rapier, which it is pro per should be tilled by the duly elected and accredited alternate in attendance at the con vention, and that the places claimed by Mr. Warner and Mr. Smith are properly and regu larly filled by Arthur Bingham and Robert A Mosely, Jr. (Here follows in the common ie port a long review of preliminary proceedings in the conventions, which gave rise to the contests). With reference to the State of Illinois the minority submit through the convention to the country a brief prepared by counsel which reviews the circumstances of the primaries, county and State conventions, declaring with the minutest detail for the standpoint of sit ting members. It would ocucpy about four newspaper columns. The point made are al ready well known to the public and have been published a nnmber ofijtimes. It is signed as follows: B. F. Tracy, New York Powel Clay ton, Arkansas W. E. Concur, Webster Flan negan, Texas Green B, Raum, Illinois: Wil liam J. Hooper, Maryland Isaac Hayman Alabama George 8. Clark, Colorado Rich mond P. Stoll, Kentucky H. E. Havans, Mis souri J. M. Thomburg. Tennessee Jno. Cessno, Pennsylvania Charles C. Tompkins, Virgina. The minority report disagreed with the Utah case, and in regard to West Virginia. Mr. Conger presented, in behalf of the ma jority, a corrected roll of members to accord with the report, and asked that the conven tion now consider the Louisiana case. Discussion followed- The Illinois case pro duced angry and excited debate. Storm on the wires prevented the receipt of a full re port. The conclusion of the day's proceedings CBnuot here be given. The/ollowing special of June 4, and the ear ly hours of June 6, gives an impartial and suecient summary of the proceedings on the leading and important points, up to 2 o'clock Saturday morning, June 6: CHICAGO, June 4.—The convention was in session to-day, from half-past ten to after 4 o'clock. The session can be styled as interest ing, but unimportant. Conkling opened the ball on offering resolutions pledging each member to support the nominee whoever he might be. A call of States was ordered on the resolution, and it was passed with but three negative votes, these being given by delegates from West Virginia. This was quite a point for Conkling. For a week past the Blaine delegates have been foaming about the hotels, declaring they "Would not luptKirt Grant if lie was nominated. The Grant men nave maintained party discip line by declaring that they were prepared tc stand by the nominee of the convention. The chair tiret put Conkling's motion viva voce, and although no negativa votes were heard the af firmative votes were not loud and hearty.Conk ling then asked to have the roll called, and there were numerous shouts of "No," "No." The men who had been threatening to bolt did uot like to be compelled to probably eat their words. The roll was called, however, and none announced themselves as bolters except three from West Virginia. Conkling followed up his first point by offering a sec ond resolution declaring that those who vot ed in the negative did not deserve seats in convention. This brought the bolters to their feet, each one protesting that he intend ed to support the nominee and professing the most stalwart Republcanism. Still the feel ing of the convention was against them, and several delegate-* advocated Conkling's reso lution. Gen. Garfield finally took the floor and turned the tide. He said those men had declared they would support the nominee, and objected to the ferm aad tone of the resolution. He urged Conkling to withdraw it This idea seemed to take with the convention. Conkling said he didn't understand that he had made any such point, but rather than run any ri6k or do any injustice, he would withdraw the motion. The majority and minority reports of the com mittee on recess were ready for presentation, and after an informal credentials of half an hour the lengthy majority and minority reports of the committee on credentials were read. These eports she wed six contests on which the com mittee couldn't agree they were from Alabama Illinois, Kansas, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Michigan. Logan objected to the report which allnded to the contest in the Illinois delegates at large, declaring that there had been no contest, and it should not be so recor ded. A sharp tilt occurred between Logan and a California delegate which grew quite per sonal. After debate of an hour the report was amended, and the Hlinois delegates at large was not alluded to as contested. The uncontested portion of the report was then adopted and the convention Ltook a recess un til 7 P. M. After the recess the convention assembled for an all night session. CHICAGO. June 6.—1:30 A. M: Tote on First Illinois district resulted in 387 for removing sitting members and 353 for retaining Grant members. This gives Blaine two additional votes. CuICAGO, June 5,2 A. M.—Talk about your scenes, this midnight session beats them all. Emory Storrs is speakingfor the regular dele ation from Illinois. He said if Blaine was nominated the Grant men would support him. Then he paid a tribute Grant, and Jlie convention and gal- to leries went wild. The Blain scene, earlier in the evening, was us nothing 'n comparison Those wha-thiBk- GFa»t- 4b- tee- fteM ought to have been here. Conkling mounted on a bench waving his pocket 'kerchief, Long John Wentworth higher up, waving both hands over his head, a cane in one hand 'ker chief in the other. Delegatas tore the state tandards from their fastenidgs on the bent li es, and waved them high in tne air,umbiellas were raised and swung"about, hats posted up on top of canes. The convention met June 5th at 11:45 iu., the attendance being samewhat smaller than at the opening of previous sessions, caused undoubtedly by weariness from the protracted session the night before. Mr. Bout well offered the following: Resolved, That the National Republican ex ecutive committee be requested to prepare and present a method for tne election of dele gates to the National Convention to beheld in 1884, and to issue instructions in conformi ty therewith Several objections being made the resolu tion was laid over. The Convention, by a vote of 478 to 184 un seated four of the sitting delegates from Kan sas and gave their seats to the four Grant con testants Then by a vote of 417 to 330 the two con testants from West Virginia were seated, who were understood to b« one Grant and one Sherman man In the Utah contested case the two Grant contestants were seated by a vote of 426 to 312. The convention abolished the unit rule and adopted the report of committee on rules. The platform was then adopted and the con vention took a recess until 7 :'-0 o'clock. The roll of States was called and a National Committee selected. The roll of States was then called for the iresentatioa of candidates for nomination for President by the convention. Mr. Joy, of Michigan, took the platform and presented the name of James G. Blaine. Mr. Conkling presented the name of U. S, Grant. E. F. Drake, of Minnesota, presented the name of Wm. Windom. Mr. Garfield presented the name of Sher man, and Mr. Billings, of Vermont, presented the name of Edmunds. Mr. Cassidy, of Wisconsin, presented the name of Washburne. Each name was received by cheers and waving of hats and handkerchiefs, the most marked demonstrations being given when the names of Blaine and Grant were presented, which were greeted with tremendous ova tions. Without ceming to a ballot the convention adjourned to 10 a. m. Monday. The continuance of the severe storm pre vents the! transmission of everything but a mere outline of the proceedings, the platform, reports of committees, resolutions, etc., not having been received up to the hour of going to press with this side of our paper. Salt Lake City. BY MAX ADELEB. Salt Lake City, the Mormon capital! Letus look at it! It lies deep in the valley, in a valley which is 6,000 feet above the level ot the sea. To the right, to the left, to the north, to the south, the east and the west mountains 1 Lying in the midst of them the city. America has no other like it. Surveyed from the dis tance, it wears a distinctly Oriental ap pearance. So we ot the far West, who have only dreamed of the East, imagine how Damascus may look. White houses shining amid rich masses of green foliage A dome, a tower, a spire, that may an swer for a minaret, deep gardens, build ings with flat roots, a taint mist of dust marking the line of a( traveled street, sky of more than the Oriental softness overhead, and an atmosphere so pure that to breathe it is a luxury, and to look through it is to gain such power of vision that the peaks of the Wasatch Range, twenty miles away,seem within the reach of the' pedestrain who has five minutes to spare. Tn the city there are broad streets cot ered with gravel. Upon each side where the gutter should be there i« a stream of pure and delicious water, hurling fiercely along with the impetus gained at the top of the Twin Peaks. The dwellings of stones, of wood, of adole or sunburnt bricks, are far apart and are enshrined among mighty trees. Shops here and there thrust themselves out to the edge of the footway, and offer their wares to the passers-by. It is a queer throng that is thus tempted.

When sufficiently near, the hunter takes his aim, and making a slight noise with his foot on the ground, which causes the deer to turn toward him, has a good chance to hit it in the middle of the tore head. But if he misses the mark, or his gun misses fiTe, then the fun begins in earnest, and one ®f the finest races in the world can be wiinested—a naked Indian and a frightened deer at full speed. If the deer should happen to be more than year old, ic is of no me following it, as it will then outrun any Indian, and ran longer without giving out: but if two or three years old, or older, a good runner will bring it down in a tew hours, or certainly within fifty or sixty miles. good runner among the Apaches can ran one hundred and twenty-five miles in twenty-four hours easily. The deer starts at full speed, making long leaps of from ten to thirty feet. At first he gains rapidly f,n the Indian, bat the latter follows, evtry now and then uttering frightful yells, but never for a moment halting or losing sight ot the trail. The deer, when out of sight, halts and looks back, but soon his persuer comes into sight, when he bounds en with longer leaps than before finally he makes for water, a spring or a stream and when he gets there, he stops and drinks all he wants. Now there is no hope tor him, tor after he drinks he can not run so fast nor leap so far. Pretty soon the Indian comes in sight again, while the tired deer stops to rest a mo ment but tbe tired hunter never halts to drink, not if his mouth is as dry as ashes for by so doing he noi only loses time, but be cannot run so fast after wards. On he goes, never resting, either on the hill or on the mountain. If the deer takes to the top of the highest mountain, right on his track the Apache follows. By-and-by he sees a blood stain on the rock, where the poor, hunted deer has stumbled and skinned his knee or struck his nose. He knows now the race will soon be ended, and runs faster than at first, whi'e the deer looses ground every minute. When tee deer sees the Apache close upon him, he stops suddenly by a rock or bush, and turns. Sometimes as soon as he stops he drops down fainting or even dead from fatigue. If not dead already when the Indian seizes him by head and bind legs, he makes but little resistence, and is dispatched with the knitc. The hunter now cuts out a fine piece and eats i^ taking not a moment's rest for fear of getting stiff, but puts the deer on his shoulders, or. if tea heavy, a part of it, placing the rest in a secure place, and trois back to camp, having traveledj a hundred miles without resting.

When Dr. Franklin was in Paris, as he sat quietly and alone at his breakfast one morning, he saw a number of black ants busy with the contents of the sugar-bowl. He drove them away, but they returned. Again he dispersed them in a few min utes they were seen climbing from lump to lump, as if nothing happened. Tb try their ingenuity, he had the sugar bowl suspended by a 3trine from the ceil ing. They endeavored to reach it by standing on each others back several mounted in this manner and reached up wards, but in vain the chain of the ants fell fast as it was raised. After repeated attempts they went away and he sup posed they had given up the matter, but presently he saw them descending the string, and dropping down upon the lumps of sugar. They had scaled the walls, traversed the ceiling, and diaMH*^ ered another road to the treasure. 1 %r:ii
