Logically the last acquittal, like the first, was secured by a prostitution of the machinery of justice te serve the exi gencies of the Republican party.

Lat evening a strawberry festival for tlu- benefit of St. Mary's orphanage began in the " old .stone church," en "West Vine street. The ancient and time-worn build ing was entirely metamorphosed in its in ner appearance and presented a thorough ly attractive spectacle in its tasteful deco ration, and the scene partook of additional zest by the animated faces of the scores of ladies anl pretty girls who are in supreme command and brook no masculine inter ference. Entering the deer at the west end of the room the visitor's attention is fust arrested by the cigar table immediately en the ieft. It is .surmounted by an arch decked with white tarlatan and ivy, and set oil' with a pair of American ilags, and is in charge of Miss Marie Uryant, assisted by Misses Lizzie McGevcrn, Laura Masker, Katie Habcr btish and Lillie llaberbush. In addition te an abundance of excellent cigars and fragrant cigarettes, which are disposed of at the most enticing terms, the table is supplied with a number of articles, useful and ornamental, te be chanced off, among them a handsome satchel, gentleman's lantern for lighting cigars, set of field croquet, a ten of coal, etc., and the most prominent article en the table is a beauti ful gipsy bucket which standi in the cen tre, and is tilled with cigars. Adjoining this cigar table en the left is the fancy table, where Misses Reekie Mc Mc Mc C'oiiemy, Annie Deaner and Mary Licbty are in charge, and their corps of efficient aids includes the foil 'wing young ladies : Misses Lizzie Malene, the Misses Royle, Lucy McCoueinv, the Misses Rcilly, Mary Harry, Hcckie Rhe..'ls, Jennie Murphy and Lizzie Shealf. There ::". a large number of useful and fancy articles in sale and for chance here, among the latter being a very h;indseine cut glass inkstand, a pretty clock, a box of line Havana cigars, silver cake basket, etc. An elegant begonia oc cupies a central position of the table, and adds materially te its appearance. There is a bazaar attached te this table, in charge of some of the ladies above men tioned wheie visitors are afforded an op portunity te ' try their luck" for the low price of ten cents, or three chances for a quarter. At the east end of the room is the flower table, which, of course, presents a most at tractive appearance, and wheie elegant bouquets and charming bnutennieres arc sold cheap for cash. There is a large fruit stand in the centre, surmounted by a sujMjrb horse-shoe, composed of rare and beautiful tlewers,aud a handsome pyramid of buttonhole-bouquets en the north end of the table. There arc for chance here a locking chair and a dell baby, a pig and a ten-dollar geld piece. Te-morrow evening, when admission te the' festival will be free, there will be a "package auction " at this table, when doubtless there will be plenty of amusement for bidders and spectators. Miss Altick is in chief command, and her assistants are Misses Keller, Lant, Wcntz, Wade, licnnawir, I Iarbcrger,Mazie Malene, Ceylo and O'Neill. At the south-east corner of the room is the table where big plates of ripe red strawberries are served by the accomodat accemodat accomedat ing ladies in charge at the low price of ten cents. The luscious fruit is temptingly dis played, and the appearance of the table is enchauced by several bouquets with which it is decorated. An elegant geld-band china tea-set is te be chanced off here. Miss Mary Dougherty is in charge and her assistants are the Misses Sullivan, Helland, Tedd, McDivitt and Quinn. The confectionery table along the south wall is gorgeous in its patriotic panoply of red. white and blue, and the arches erected above it arc handsomely trimmed with tarlatan. Several sweetly-singing cana ries carol forth their invitations te the visitor, whose mouth is fairly made te water by the abundance of geed tilings under which the table groans. Cakes and confections and nuts arc here presented in tempting array, several large and handsome iced cakes being notably prominent. The customer here is afforded en opportunity of trying his luck in "chancing' for a beautiful toilet set anil pair of vases. Miss Annie Ueyle, is in charge here assisted by Misses Dennelly, Doerseni, Nerbcck. Fitzpatrick, Delia and Katie Deyle, and Sallie Kauffman.

The ice cream here dispensed is delicious in llaver, and the size of the plates is monumental. A feature of interest at this table is the contest for a Bible, which is being voted for between Misses Maggie Maleney, Maggie Delan, Katie Daly, Mary German and Annie Lawrence. The table is prettily ornamented with fern plants and bouquets. The festival is certainly a delightful place te spend a leisure evening. An at mosphere of welcome pervading the vener able yet gaily decorated room greets the visitor as he enters, and the stranger is quickly put at ease by the obliging man ners of the fair chiefs and pretty lieuten ants in charge of the several tables. The festival will probably continue for ten or twelve days, and nothing has been left un done te make it a successful and pleasant affair. The managers extend an invitation te their friends and the public generally te conic early and stay late. Festival at St. Paul's M. K. Church.

The committee en credentials has just reported, and recommends the ad mission of the Warmoth (anti-Grant) delegates from Louisiana. Worse and 31 ere of it. The report of the credentials committee further recommends the admission of Rapier, of Alabama, who refused te obey the instruction of the convention that the stale vote should be cast as a unit : rec ommends that the contestants from the 7th district of Alabama be admitted recommends the admission of the con ants from Illinois in the 1st, 3d, 4th, 5th, Gth, 0th, 10th, 13th and 17th districts; favors the contestants from the 2d and 3d districts of Kansas, and rcceniiucuds that the ten delegates be allowed te retain scats but only six votes te be cast. Reports against the contestants in the 9th and 19th districts, Pennsylvania, and reports in favor of district representation instead of by states as a whole. There is a contradiction in this despatch ; the fust part indicates the seating of Kautfiuaii aud Seltzer ; the latter part their exclusion. Ens. Int.

The minority reports against the prin ciple of district representation in a national convention and against the contestants from Alabama.

A Repert that was Changed. Chicago, June 4. At 2:20 this morning the committee en credentials concluded their labors by voting te report in favor of the sitting delegates from West Virginia and Utah and the contesting delegates from the 9th district of Pennsylvania (E. Iv. 3Iaitiu and A. Kline), and the 13th dis trict of Illinois. It refused te interfere with the delegates at large or these from the 2d district of Illinois. A resolution de claring that the Springfield (111.) conven tion was a legally constituted body and in selecting delegates te the national conven tion acted in geed faith, was rejected by a vote et 27 te 17, two net voting. The Convention. While the interest in the convention and its business continues, there is a visible abatement of the excitement this morning. At 10;- there were few delegates in their seats, and the galleries were net half filled. Spectators, however, arc still pouring in and as the weather is cool, there is no doubt that another hour will see the house cram med te its utmost capacity. A Het Discussion. Ill the discussion of Conkling's motion te exclude the West Virginia dissenters. Mr. Hale, of W. Va., who voted "aye." defended the rights of his colleague te vote as he saw fit applause ; te utter his sentiments as an individual delegate. Mr. Brandagec, of Conn., said the question was net one of free speech ; no man here will seek te hinder any delegate's free speech ; it was only a question as te what any man would de for the support of Republican principles. He continued at considerable length and was greeted with hisses A'Fierce Thrust at Conkling. Mr. McCormick, of West Virginia, avowed himself one of the disscutants ; net because he did net expect te support the nominee of this convention, for he did intend te de that no matter who he sheu'd be. He was as geed a Democrat as tl e gentleman from New Yerk and whereas the latter made only one speech for the nominee of the last national Republican convention, he ( McCormick ) made ena hundred. Great applause and cheers. He opposed the resolution only because it de clares that men arc unlit te sit in the con vention if they differ from ether members of it. A Colored Brether Wants te Knew. Yeung (Tcnn.), colored, supported a resolution and asked why, if these who voted " no " meant te join the Democratic party, they should be helping te cheese the nominee of the Republican party ; if it was a mere question of personal independ ence let them keep it te themselves, but let them leave the Republican party te take care of itself. Garfield's Grave Apprehension. Garfield (Ohie) expressed his fear that the convention was about te commit a grave error. He would state the case ; every delegate save three had voted for the resolution, aud the three gentlemen who bad voted against it had risen in their places and stated that they had expected and intended te support the nomination of the convention ; but, that it was net, in their judgment, a wise thing at this time te pass the resolution which all the ether delegates voted for. Were they te be dis franchised because they thought se? (Cries of "no," "no.") That was the question. Was every delegate te have his Republi canism inquired into before he was allowed te vote ? Delegates were responsible for their votes, net te the convention hut te their constituents. Cheers. He himself would never in any convention vote against his judgment. He regretted that the gentleman from West Virginia had thought it best te break it. i ii . mu uariuuuy ui me convention l by their dissent ; did net knew these gen tlemen nor their affiliations, nor their rela tions te the candidates. If this convention expelled these men, the convention would have te purge itself at the end of every vote, and inquire hew many delegates who had voted "no" should go out. He trusted the gentleman from New Yerk would withdraw his resolution and let the convention proceed with business. (Cheers.) Pixley (Cal.) moved te lay the resolution en the table. Applause. Conkling demanded a call of the Tell. Hisses, long and furious. The call of the roll was ordered. Conkling inquired whether the three gentleman from West Virginia did say that they would vote for the nominee of this convention. The chair said it was net his province te answer the question. Conkling said he would net press his resolution if his question was answered iu the affirmative, aud finally he withdrew the resolution as he said there seemed te be some doubt. Applause and hisses. SiulnefM. Sewcll (X. J.), moved that the commit tee an credentials new report ; adopted. The chair called the galleries te order for disturbing the convention, and said if there was any mere hissing he would clear that part from whence it came. The chairman of the credentials commit tee net being In the house, en motion of Sewell the committee ea rules was ordered te report, with the understanding that no action be taken upon their recommenda tions until after the report of the com mittee en credentials and action taken thereon. Itruce in the Chair. The chair called Senater Bruce, of Mis sissippi, one of the vice presidents, tem porarily te the chair. As Bruce came for ward he was received with applause. Garfield, from the committee, reported the rules commended for the government of the convention. The rules were read by the secretary. The one which forbids any unit rule was received with applause. Uarhcld said he iiidTiet understand that the rules were new up for discussion but only for information. The only changes from 187G were verbal merely, or effected their rearrangement in a mere convenient order, except that the committee had added te what was new numbered as rule 8, a prevision clearly aud explicitly em bodying the uniform precedents of all previous Republican conventions te the manner of taking the vote of states that are divided. Hear resumed the chair. Sharpc (N. Y.) presented a minority re port of the committee en rules, signed by the delegates en that committee from Ala bama, Arkansas, Flerida, Arkansas, Miss issippi, Missouri, Kentucky, New Yerk, Tennessee, Virginia, Illinois and Colerado, recommending the adoption of Rule (J el' the convention of 1870, in the same lan guage as in 187(5, as fellows : "In the record lit" the votes by states tbe vote of each state, territory, and the Dis trict of Columbia, shall be announced by chairman, aud iu case the vote of any state, territory, or the District of Columbia, shall be divided, the chairman shall an nounce the number of votes cast for any any candidate or for or against any propo prepo sition." The minority express belief that the addition made by the majority of the committee is unwise, that it tends te in vite dissension which might net etheiw isc be forced, that, as a protection of the rights of individual member.'', it is unnec essary, and that it gratuitously and in ad vance casts an imputation en the chairn e.i of resf ectivc delegations. Action en the report of the committee en rules, and the views of the minority was withheld for the present. The Platform. The committee en resolutions have no J reported but have agi esd en their wert g The platform rehearses the great benefits of Republican rule te the country ; it has resolved solidity te national finances, lifted the credit of the country ; has etj st i red prosperity of the future. It advocates popular education, adherence te the con stitution, prohibition of the use of public funds for sectarian schools, favors the pro tection of American labor, commerce and industries, denounces polygamy, renews the obligations of the country te the Union soldiers, opposes unlimited Chinese immi gration and suggests congressional medifira tien of existing treaties te remedy the evil, commends Hayes's administration ; ai migns the Democratic party aud holds it de be the duty of the Republicans te har monize the whole country. The Contested Seats at Last. A message was received from the com mittee en credentials that it would be ready te report iu thirty minutes, the con vention accordingly waiting idle for the committee's report and many of the dele gates are leaving the hall. After about an horn's delay, waiting for the committee en credentials, the conven tion again came te order at 1 p. m. Con Cen ger (Mich.) presented the report, apolo gizing for the length of time they had been compelled te detain the convention, and explaining the necessity. They had been continuously and laboroits laberoits laboreits ly engaged in the duties ever since they were appointed with the exception of a recess of three or four hours. The numerous questions before them had been discussed with can dor aud frankness, and settled without dispute in the committee is te thciractien. no matter hew much they differed as te the merits. The recommendations of the committee respecting contests are given above. In addition thereto the committee reported that the final decision of many of the con tests depends upon the adoption by the con vention of the principle of congressional district representation. This the commit tee believe te be sound. Applause. The report cites Hen. J. Den Cameren's support of the right of individual district representation at the convention of 187C, under precisely similar circumstances and a similar call for a national convention. They cite the form of a call of the convention in 1858 as evi dence that it was the pur4)0 e of the Re publican party te establish the principle of district representation. This was sustained, also, by all prece dents in the party down te date. In no case has the fair action of districts, in s lecting its rcpicscntativcs, been overruled or changed by any state or national con ventien. Applause. The committee de net believe that this right of congressional district representation should new be in vaded for the first time by the action of national convention. If a state convent i? i can by bare majority overrule the will of the people fairly expressed in the selection of district delegates it might as well appoint at once all delegates. Great applause. Nominations made though such misrepresentations were net likely te be ratified by the people. It was the duty of the convention te disapprove emphati cally all attempts te override high moral customs of party. (Applause.) Clayten (Ark.) presented the minority report. It differs with the report of the majority as te the application of the prin ciple of district representation. The recom mendation of the majority, if adopted, would work as an ex-pest facto rule, re versing the long-established usage of party in many states. Applause. WKATHKR INDICATIONS. Washington, June 4.
