Total number of votes 80 820 Necessary to a cholee 517 547 Grover Cleveland, of New York _ 392 81 Thomas F. Bayard, Delaware 18-S 81JÍ Allen G. Thurman, of Ohio... W 4 Samuel J.

Hendrlcks, of Indiana 1 4ö!4 On the second ballot an attempted break was made for Hendricks, for the first place on the ticket, but the whole afl'air proved a lizzle, for the Cleveland nieu were in the convention to force the nomination for tueir favorite, in spite of Tammany and everybody else. They won, and Tammany is pretty bacfly disgustod, trom all aupearances; then, too, Jíutler, the nominee of two conventions, tbe Greenback and Anti-Monopoly, was suubbed, and, between the two, together with nunierous other disaffected elementa of the party, Messrs. Cleveland and Hendricks are going to have a hot time of t; n short, are " our next victims " It is perhaps thouglit by inany Democrats that Hendricks, tbe tail of Ihe muchtalkedof ticket of 1870, will pull them throughif nothing else will, but there ii no oscasion whatever for alarm on the part of Republicana. It is doubtless a question with many of his own party, ly the bye, whether Mr. Hendricks isn't a candidate for almost auy position lic might be oflered. All in all, the ticket is an easy one for lïlaine and Logan to handle, if we tnistake not, and witli the hosts of their supporters throughout the country we expect them to come in"at the dcath '' of tlie nominees of the late National Democratie Oonvention.
