John a McClernand, of Illinois, was elected permanent President of tiie Cour vc-ntion. Fum tl.e telegraphic reports, the delegates have no idea that they can place in nomination a ticket having any show to lieat Hayes and Wheeler, -and therefore there J no. eutlmsiaMn manifested. " The next President, Gov. Ilnyes, of Ohio, has thrice been elected. Governor of his ttate, each time runnii. against the most popular Democrat that could be found in the State. lie was twice elected to Congress, where he served liis constituents well and a.blv. Now i he is the Republican candidate for the highest office in the gilt of the people, and he will certainly, be elected to that office. Count one for the women! Old Connecticut has cut the Gordiau knot that tied the women down to silence, or at least tied them so that they could not vote. The House ot Representa tives ot Connecticut has passed- a bih allowing women over twenty-one year of age and possessing property to th :unount ot five hultdred dollars, to vot in'scbool, borough, and town elections Now will the Senate pass the bill ami will the Governor sign it ? A young lady from. this cjty, who at tended the Cincinnati Convention, write that there were seven hundred and fifty five de'egates in attendance, and that there were about 5,003 spectators pres entonly those having tickets (other than delegates)heiiig permitted to en ter the hall where the Convention was held. The excitement after. the ballot ing commenced .vas tremendous. After the final ballot, and Hayes was declar ed the choice ot the Convention, the hall was the scene of the wildest enthu siasm, delegates and audience joining in cheers and shoots that entirely drown e4 the music of the brass bands in at tendance. It is generally conceded to bave been the largest and most enthusi astic Republican Convention that , ever assembled. At the outbreak ot the war, Gov. Haye was appointed Major of the 23d Ohio Infantry. For bravery and meri torious service he was severally promo ted to a Lieutenant Colonelcy, Colonel cy, Brigadier Genera'cy, and. iu 1S64, for bravery at Fisher's Hill and Cedar Creek, he was breveted ;Major General. As a soldier he was one of the bravest and mostdaring,winning laurels wherev. er Le went, j In the spring -of 1865 he was given command of an . expedition against Lynchburg, and was preparing to cross the mountains of West Virgin ia when the' war was brought U a close. Officers Elect. At the regular meeting of Albany Lodge, No. 4, 1. O. O. F., Wednesday evening, the follow ing officers were elected ; P. . HV Ray mond, N. G.; Jas. K. Weatherford, V. G. ; J. II. Burkhart, I L Seel ; Geo. F. Simpson, p. Sec, ; A, M. Iioop, Treasurer. , "Any good reliable Democrat, re marks the Mobile Register, "can carry Missouri ; but what Democrat-can car ry New York? That is the question." The Italian circa . is At Portland, . Zieading this way. - SAHCEl J. TILDES On Wednesday, as the telegraph in- forrqsos, Samuel J. Tilden, ot New j Yctk, was nominated as the Demo cratic Presidential candidare, on the third ballot.. Mr. Tilden is probably tlie strongest man the Convention could have nominated out of the Democratic party.. Immediately after nominating Mr. 'lilden, the Convention' adjourned n:ii il ThiTi-wlay, when a candidate for the Vice Presidency will be nominated. VV ho this will be remains to 1k seen. If the telegraphic reports ate to re- ceive credit, the proceedings of the Con vention wero decidedly inharmonious, the majority shown g anything but fair play to the minority. The platform is entirely too lenctliv for our eo'utnus to-day we will try and give it room in our next. It is very distasteful toa large number ot the delegates, who already predict the utter annihilation of the men put upon it. In fact it is a kind of ' double entendre. capable ot almost any construction to suit the views of the citizens of the difl 'brent sections of this great country. We are not disappointed in either the nomination or the platform. No mat ter who is tacked on to the ticket will rrden, Hayes and Wheeler will be th. next President and Vice President of the United States, just so sure as there is an election. i The diptheria has been prevailing at Seattle, W. T., for some weeks, proving very fatal. Hy it Mr. John Denny lost four children in three weeks, and many other families, felt its fatal embrace W last arc-nuts the disease was assum ing a milder form. Poor sewerage one ot the causes ftl e peva ence ot'tlie disease. Physically, the nest President, Gov. Hays, is a powerful man. He weighs ISO to 190 pounds, and, his friends say, ho can jump any fence he caii place his hands on He is also a splendid horse man, a crack shot, and , can swine a scythe with any Granger of the conn- try. Delegates in attendance on the St. Lous Convention tredicted that it was the last National Democratic Conven tion that would ' ever be . held. Well, to sjieak the unvarnished ' truth, there was blamed little use ot holding the one on the 27th. Tire President has nominated Albert M. Wayman, Treasurer of the United States, vice New resigned, and. Wm. P. Titcomb, of Massachusetts, Assistant Register of the. Treasury, , 1 m m A fellow. appeared in the San Fran cisco police court the other day, broken out with small pox. There was a scat terment of that court at once and hur riedly. Hon. Jas. H. Foster, and . family ex pect to return to this city about the first of August. From lettees received, we learn that tbey have been enjoying, a splendid time while visiting in the Eastern States. Twenty-four thousaud five . hundred and' twenty-six:, idiots . in the. United States, not counting in. those ii attend, atice at the St. Louis Convention. A man has invented a shoe sole that will not squeak. It is made of dried apples, and in wet weather it gets thick. er on its own account. Mr. Edward Goings, miller, of - this aty, and Miss Clara,. Botcher, of Syra cuse precinct, were married on the 25 th ioat .Bully for Ed. RKGHSTEli. . HEXOBHWI. Just before going to press we learn that Gov. Hendricks, ot Indiana, is the nominee of the Louis Convention for the Vice Presidency. , As between Hays and Wheeler, awl Tilden and Hendricks, Oregon will cast her electo ral vote for the two first named the Republican nominees. Our Democratic friends employed the band and burned some owder, and had our long.faced Governor on for a speed i lnst "''-Xht, but with all their efforts the Democratic heart wouldn't fire there wan t anything' to enthuse over, and the "leaders" couldn't make the rank and rile see it in any other light. T e Democracy never put in the field a tick et which they at least the better in formed of that party looked upon, as so hop lwS f o'ection as the preseu. national Democratic ticket. Seven States will have their electioi before the presidential vote is cast it Novemlier. These are Arkansas, Yci- niont aid Maine in Sep'embtr, ano Ohio, Indiana, West Virginia aim Georgia in October. Pennsylvania winch formerly gave the .key in Oetoliei no.v holds her state election in Novem ber. If any one ever doubted the unfitness of Democracy to rule, the doubt must have been dispelled bv this time. Si months' control of the House of Iiepre sentatives proves Democracy to be little batter than an imbecile iu the manage ment of pnb'ic affairs. While the in dustries of the country are languishing tor needed legislation, nothing bas been done to revive them. A Big Game of Draw. Recently in Washington, John Chamberlain, Un well known turfman, and a metnljer o a great London banking house, quietly set down to a little game ot "draw." The game soon became interesting, and was. prolonged thirty-six hours. Lhau-berla-n got up from the game winner to the tune of $140 ,000. Raise a charge against a -Republican official and the news will travel from Maine to California before the ink is dry. Investigate the charges and find them 'a'se, and the news of the acquit tal travels with snail-like pace to d . tardy justice where injustice has been done. How true the old snying, 'a he will travel around the globe while truth is pulling on its boots." Prominent delegates to the Demo cratic C onvention aro already predicting the defeat ot Tilden and Hendricks. They predict that New York will give a rousing Republican majority and we do not doubt the prediction. Mr. Sam. Hannah, collector of cus toms for, the Portland , district is re ported dangerously ill at his residence in Union, Union county. We have been requested not to say anything about the. picnic at Ilackle man's grove on the 4th, and wo won't, as most evcrybody,.is going to Portland. It -is thought the Senate will yield on the appropriation bills, and the wheels of Government will not, there fore, be stopped. Weather fearful hot in the Eastern cities Sunstroke is of frequent occur rence, and mad .dogs are rather numer ous. . : "- " The famous . impeachment trial of. Warren Hastings, before the British Parliament, lasted eleven years. A IMM0BIHEAIED CHILO, . According to a correspondent of' the I etaluma (( ai.) Arjia?, in the redwood country, about twen'y miles from Peta luma, resides a' family who have a little eight year-old girl who has two wpII. developed aid perfectly 'formed heads ana necks, j ie nnite at the point where they joi the backbone, and from that point downwards, apj.arei.tlv it is the body of one child. One head s called Dollie and the other O lie, the first having rich brown hair, dark hazel eyes, and is a brunette, while the other has auburn hair, fair skin and bine eyes. The two heads can converse on dillerent -ubjects at the same time, and both are well informed and inte'ligent. This is a most marvelous cast, and it is strange that nothing has ever been heard of it before. A IXiren FImIs. We give twelve g od points-why the Uqmiihcaii party shonl.l I preferred o Democracy. A hundivd eqnal y a ;od could be given : 1. It represents the intc'iigente and yalty ot the i.atim . 2. it is the champion of free educa tion, and an advocate of the rights ' o' ialMr. 3. It preserved the Republic i the ace ot the greatest rebellion of mod tii times. 4. It restored through its legiida iive wisd.m-lhe SouMiem States to r- all their former rights ai.d privileg es in the Union. - , 5. It abolished slavery. 6. It made freedom universal. 7. It settled the vexed San Juan boniidary question. . , ! 8. It obtained 15.000,000 from England, and se ttled amieab v the Ala bama depredation question. 9. It gave to the nation a good na tional hacking system. 10. It has paid nearly $600,000,000 'fthts. national debt , 11. It built the Pacific railroad. 12. ' It has opened a pr fitable com merce with Eastern nations through fa vorable treaties. The .fire of 7,000 cannon at Gibralter can be concentrated upon any hostile vessel that attempts the jasMige of the straits. . .- Eastern journals announce 'that Blaine's friends are alarmed about bun fearing sof.ening of the brain. The Derm rats were to have a rat ification meeting last night, to be ad dressed by Gov. Grover.
