I Khidl never eease to rejrret that slanet have lieen sueli as t t'nedutv upon mvself to eireum impose make a nomination of a eanslidate to this eonvention. 1 have heeii ahsent from the country for the jiast two months, and arfiveil home hut just hefore this eonvention. Since the eonvention has In-en in session I have heen emjiloyttl upon the lloor all the time; if, therefore, words of mine are important for the candi date who shall ho proposed, tliev win hencht him but little. I will,. However, lirm him hefore the audi ence the convention in ashriefa manner as liossilile. That it will he very brief will, 1 presume, satisfy the convention and the audience," be cause we are now all impatient for the voting. It was in 'ISM, I think, that a then young man, born iu the old Keystone State, but a resident in the State of Maine, entered the House of Representatives. It was a time when the sky was lowering, when the horizon was filled with clouds indi cating a temjR-st. It was just ln-fore the war. The clouds, the temiiest burst upon the country, ami the war ensued, which raged for four long years. Fortunately for us, there was, at the holm of the ship of state the right man, and it was manned with the right crew. After the whirlwind of war had raged for four years, the elements of strength of one of the contending parties gave away, and peace at length settled down upon the country. Then ensued the contest for reconstruction, and it occupied nearly three or four years more. During all that timi that young man, always true, always brave, always eloquent, applied his talents m all the achates and in all the procedures which were necessary either to carry on the war or to bring aliout reconstruction upon a projier oasis. When reconstruction had been secured, and during the jieriod ol those controversies, Jus reputa tion nau neon emerging, growing, towering, until at hist, when, in LSiiS, reconstruction had been practically ; secured, his'rcputatiou was towering j hefore the country, and his name I was tine of the great names of the country, that had been spread abroad all over the land. It had lie come a household word ; it was fa miliar in every corner; it was look ed up to from every part of the country. That name was Hon. James C. Elaine, the Senator from Maine. Great outburst of enthusi asm'. When the stormy jieriod of Andrew Johnsons administration had passed away, and the nomina tion of General Grant was made to the country for the Presidency of the United States, all eyes in the northern section turned to the Hon. James G. Blaine. He was called upon to canvass the country. He canvassed the country from Maine to the Mississippi and beyond. He made himself familiar with the great Xorth and the great West , the peo ple became familiar with him in the Xorth and in the great West, and he had about him the wonderful pow er of attraction which half a century ago was josSfsed in a most emi nent degree also hy another great man of this country, the great son of the great State of Kentucky, Henry Clay. On the second nomi- nation of General Grant, in 1872, he was called upon in the same way, and traveled the country exercising his power, his ability, and his clo I quence for the cause of his country J over the same extent of this Xorth ern territory. .He had become so well known, the people of the coun try had become so well acquainted with him, he had fastened them to him by attraction so great that in the convention which was held at Cincinnati four years ago, he had bc- tvme the leading candidate of the X'orthcrn people lor the Presidency of the United States. He was the fav orite candidate of the State which I re present in this convention. Its dclej.'ates went to that convention with .1 view of urging and securing, if it ere jxissible, his nomination. He can ie within a few votes of suc cess, wh en for some l oasons, his col umn bro ke and the result was anoth er nomini vtion which had not been before the country. You all know the disappointment; you all know, jcrhaps the astonishment which was created in so. ne sections of the coun- try at that result By the StatO j j I j . t,e honor to reorCSent mcn 1 nave UJt iioutu w iuiu iui upon this flooi ' it Was considered al- most a caLimi.fy to the indi-idual niembcw of the KepuMicaji party of that State ; the V kit it almost OS a personal blow : "b ut, while he might have been disapp ointed reasonably set ESTABLISHED, 1827. SOMERSET, PA., WEDNESDAY, in the results, when the canvass came, and when the liirht was a close lone, and when it was doubtful ! whether the Ilepublieans would sn--j eeed in electing their candidate, al though he had Keen repudiated at j the convention, he buckled on his i harness and he entered the ranks : he traversed the country, he fought manfully, gloriously, vigorously, un til the battle was won applause, though by a small majority. The result was he endeared him- self tenfold more to the working Ke ! publicans of this Northwest than he had ever boenlefore "louder", and, when this convention was called, the people of the State which I repre sent, and which had so earnestly ad vocated him before, determined again to place hitn before this eon vention. I am but executing their wish when I do go. Xow, gentle men, I will say in regard to the State of Michigan: It is no doubtful State. It is a State which stands by its banner all the time. Applause. It will not matter, so far as the vig or and the energy which that State will put in the contest, whether he be nominated or not. We stand by the Hag there, whoever may be the standard-bearer. With these remarks, gentlemen longer than I intended I have the honor to present to this eonvention as the candidate for the Presidential chair for the, ensuing term, to be voted for by the jieople, the name of the 1 Ion. James G. Blaine. CO.NKLIXtl NOMINATES GRANT. The Secretary then proceeded with the call of the States until Xcw York was reached. As . that State' was called. Senator Conkling arose amid loud cheering and proceeded slowly to the reporters' platform. Stepping upon a table, he waited quietly until the cheering had ceased, and then spoke slowly and very dclilierately as follows : Ami when askcil wlmt State lie liailivl from. Our stile rely fliall lie, He hails from Aitpomnttox, Anil its faminis nppletree. In oliedienee to instructions, which I should never dare to disregard, ex pressing also my own firm convic tions, I rise to propose a nomination with which the country and the Ue jmblican party can grandly win. The election lefore us will be the Austerlitz of American polities. It will decide for many years whether the country shall be uIlopublican or Ctissack." Applause. The extreme need of the hour is not a candidate who can carry Michigan. All Re publican candidates can do that. Applause. The need is not of a candidate popular in the Territories, localise the T eritories have no vofe. Applause. The need is of a candi date who can carry doubtful States Cries of "Gtiodl" and cheers not the doubtful Suites of tho Xorth alone, hut doubtful States of the South cries of "Good 1" and cheers which we have heard, if I understood it aright, ought to take little or no part here, because the South has nothing to give, but everything to receive. Cries of "Good! good!"' and cheers. No, gentlemen; the need that rests ujhiii the conscience of this convention is of a candidate who can carry doubtful Suites both North and South, anil believing that he more surely than any other can car ry New York against any opjKinent great cheers, and can carry not only the North but several States of the South. Xcw York is for Ulysses S. Grant. Tremendous cheering, waving of hats, handkerchiefs, and umbrellas. At the same time a flag, bearing a portrait of General Grant, was let down from the west gallery and hung over the bust of Daniel Webster. Never defeated in peace or in war, his name is the most illus trious Iwirne by living man. Cheers. His services attest his greatness, anil the country, nay, the world, knows them by heart. Applause and hisses. His fame, was earned not alone by things written ami said, but by the arduous greatness of things 'done. Cries of "( Jood for you !" and cheers. And jierils and emergencies will search in vain in the future, as they have searched in vain in the past, for any other on whom the nation leans with such confidence and trust Applause. .Never having had a Ioliey to enforce against the will of the people cheers and cries of "Good ! good !" he never betrayed a voice, "What? Never!" laughter and hisses, a cause or a friend cheers and the jK-ople will never desert or betray him. Cheers. Standing on the highest eminence of human distinction, modest, firm, simple, and self-Kised ; having filled all lands with his renown, he has seen not only the highborn and the titled, but the poor and the lowly, in the uttermost ends of the earth, rise and uncover before him. Applause. He has studied the needs and tne defects of many systems of govern ment, and he has returned a better American than ever applause with a wealth of knowledge and ex- jK-rience added to the hard common sense which conspicuously distin guished him in all the fierce light that beat upon him during sixteen vears, the nmst trying, the most por tentous, the most ieril5u3 in the Na tion's history. Applause. Vilified and reviled," truthlessly aspersed by numberless presses not in other lands, but in his own ; assaults upon him have seasoned and strengthened his hold mon the public heart Ap plause. The ammunition of calum ny has all been exploded, the pow der has all been burnt. Its force is spent, and the name of Grant will glitter , a bright and imperishable star in the diadem of the republic when those who have tried to tar nish that name have moldcrcd in forgotten graves applause and when their memories and epitaphs have vanished utterly. Applause. Nev er elated by success, never depressed bv adversity, he has ever in peace as in war shown the very genius of common scsc. " lhc terms he pre scribed for Ixhj's surrender foreshad owed tho wisest prophecies and principles of true reconstruction. VICTOR, IN THE GREATEST WAR OF MODERN TIMES, he quickly signalized his aversion to war and liis love of jieace by an ar bitration of international disputes which stands as the wisest, most JUNE 16, ISSO. majestic example of its kind in the world's diplomacy. Applause When inflation at the height of its jiopu larify and frenzy had swept lniih Houses of Congress, it was the veto of Grant, which single and alone overthrew expansion and cleared the way for sjiecie resumption. Ap plause. To him, to him immeasurably more than to any other man, is due the fact that every paper dollar is as good as gold. Applause. With him as our leader we shall have no defensivecampaign. Great applause. No, we shall have nothing to explain away. Applause and laughter. We shall have no apologies to make. Cries of "No !" and applause. The shafts and the arrows have all been aimed at him, and they lie broken and harmless at his feet. Tremen dous applause, chorus, and confus ion. Life, liiK'rty and property will find safeguard in him. When he saitl of the colored men in Florida, "Wherever I am they may come also" applause and cheers he meant that had he the power, the poor dwellers in the cabins of the South should no longer be driven in terror from the homes of their child hood and the graves of their murder ed dead. Great applause and con fusion. When he refused to receive Denis Kearney in California ap plause, he meant that communism, lawlessness, and disorder, although it might stalk high-headed and dic tate law to a whole city, should find a foe in him. Great applause. He meant that, juijiular or unjiopular', he would hew to the line of right, let the chips fly where they may. Applause and cheers. HLs integ rity, his common sense, his courage, his unequaled experience, are the qualifies offered to his country. The only argument, the only one that the wit of men or the stress of poli tics has devised is one which would dumbfound a Solomon, liecause he thought there was nothing new un der the sun. Laughter. Having tried Grant twice, and found him faithful, we are told that we must not, even alter an interval of years, trust him a third time. My coun trymen, my countrymen, what stul tification does not such a fallacy in volve. Applause. The American people exclude Jefferson Davis from public trust. Why? Why? Because he was the arch-traitor and would be destroyer, and now the same peo ple is askeil to ostracize Grant and not to trust him. Applause. Why? Why? I repeat. ISecause he was the arch-preserver of his country ap plause ami because not only in war but twice as civil magistrate he gave his highest, noblest efforts to the republic. Is this an electioneer ing juggle, or is it hyjxicrisy's masquerade? There is no field of human activity, responsibility or reason in which rational leings o)y- ject to an agent because he has been weighed m the balance and not found wanting. Cries of "Time," "Order" and "Go on." There is, I say, no department of human reason in which sane men reject an agent lioeause he has had experience, making him exception ally competent and fit. From the man who shoes "our horse to the lawyer who tries your cause, the offi cer who manages your railway or your mill, ' the doctor into whose hands you give your life, the minis ter who seeks to save your soul what man do you reject lioeause by his works you have known him and found him faithful and true? At plause. W hat makes the iTesidentuu ot fiec an exception to all things else? In the common sense to he applied in selecting its incumlient, who dares, who dares to put fetters on the free choice and judgment which is the birthright of the American people? Applause. Can it' be said that Grant has used on official power and place to perpetuate his term? He has no place, and official power has not been used for him. Applause. Without patronage, without emissa ries, without committees, without bureaus laughter in the galleries without telegraph wires -cries of ':Good'' running from his house to this convention, or running from his house anywhere. Applause and loud and prolonged hisses, which the ; speaker deprecated by raised hands. lAt me finish. . Mr. Bishop of Montana I rise to ask the American people to listen to the gentleman when he says : "Let me finish." Remember that we arc here to do right. The Chair The gentleman will proceed unless some member of the eonvention makes the point of order. No member, of the convention has manifested a disposition to do it. Mr. Conkling And, Mr. Chair man, let me say to the Chair that I shall lc carefui and not exceed the forty minutes which, without objec tion, were given to those who pro posed and seconded the last nomina tion. Cries of 'G'ood" and cheers. I say this man without bureaus, without appliances, without election eering contrivances hisses and loud cries of "Oh," "Oh," and laughter without effort on his nart his name is on his country's lips laughter and hisses and "he is struck at by the whole. Democratic party cries of "sit down," "sit down," and hisses because his nomination is the death blow of Democratic success. Applause. He is struck at bv others who find offensesjand disqual ification in the very services he has rendered, and the very experience he has gained. SHOW ME A BETTER MAX ! Name one ! f Cries from the galleries of "Blaine," "Blaine," and general laughter and applause. Gentlemen, this does not come out of my time, and therefore does not annoy me at all. Laughter and cheers. I was about to say, name a better man, but do not point as a disquali fication to the very experience which makes this man fit beyond all oth "crs. Loud applause. Let no ex perience disqualify or excellence im peach him. There is no third term in the case, and the pretense will die with the political dog-days that en gendered it. One week after the Democratic convention we shall hear the last of this rubbish about a third term. Nobody now is really wor ried about a third term except these cries of "Oh," "oh," and laughter eralc hopelessly longing for a first term, 'it is the men who lung lor a iiist ' term. Great ch. ering. Without cU'ort or intrigue on hi- part lie i; the candidate ves, t'ne candidate whose friends hav threatened to lmlt unless tho never conveii - tion nominated him. ireat ap - piause.j Jie is trie candidate whose friends havo never tlueatened to lndt unless this convention did as thev said. Applause ami cries of "good." He is a Republican who never wa vers. Applause. He and his friends stand by the creed and the candidate of the Republican party. They hold the rightful rule of the majority as the very essence of their fait-K and they mean to uphold that faith against not only the common enei.iy but against the charlatans, and jay hawkers, and guerillas, the men who i deploy between the lines, and forage now on one side and then on the other. Gioat applause and lamrh ter.l This convention is master of a su preme opportunity. It can name the next Iresident of the United States. Applause. It can make sure of his election. Confusi n and hisses. I will wait. Cries of "Go on," Go on,". It can make sure not only of his election, but of his certain and jieaeeful inauguration. Applause. It can break that pow er which dominates and mildews the South. It can overthrow an organi zation whose very existence is a pro test against progress. The purpose of the Democratic, party is spoils. Its very hojie and existence is a sol id South. Its success is a menace to prosperity and order. Cries of "Good," "Good.'" 1 say this con vention tan overthrow that povur. It can dissolve and emancipate a solid South. It can speed the nation in a career of grandeur eclijasing all past achievements. Wild and long continued applause. Gentlemen, we havo only to listen above the din, ami look beyond the contest of the hour to behold the Re publican party advancing, with its ensigns resplendent with illustrious achievements, and marching to cer tain victory with its greatest marshal at its head. OA 1! FIELD ON SHERMAN. Mr. President : I have witnessed the extraordinary sevnes of this con vention with deep solicitude. No emotion touches my heart more quickly than sentiment in honor of a great and noble'charaetcr, but as I sat on these seats and witnessed these demonstrations, it seemed to me that you wore a human ocean in a tem- P pest. I have seen the sea lashed in to fury and tossed into spray, and its grandeur moves the soul of the dull est man. But I remember that it is not tht; billows, but the calm level of the sea, from which all heights and depths are measured (applause); when the storm has passed and the hour of calm settles on the ocean, when the sunlight bathes its smooth surface, then the astronomer and sur veyor takes the level from which lie measures all terrestial heights and depths. (Applause.) Jentlenien of the convention, your Iiresent temper may not mark the lealthful pulse of our people. When our enthusiasm has passed, when the emotions of this hour have sub sided, we shall find that calm level of public opinion below the storm from which the thoughts of a mighty jeojle must lie measured and by which their final action will be de termined. (Applause.) Not here in this brilliant circle, where 15.(XHJ men and women are ! assembled, is the destiny of the Re publican partv to bo decreed. ( oices "That's so.'") Not here where I! sec the enthusiastic faces fit" 7"o del-! egatcs waiting to cast their votes into the urn, and determine the choice of the Republic. (Applause.) But by 4,(KX),(l(M Republican firesides, where the thoughtful voters with wives and children about them, with the calm thoughts inspired by Jove of home and love of country, with the history of the past, the hopes of the future, and the knowledge of the great men who have adorned and blessed our nation in days gone by. There God prepares the verdict that shall deter mine the wisdom of our work to night. (Applause.) Xot in Chicago, in the Imats of June, but in the sober quiet that conies to them lietv.een now and November, in the silence of deliberate judgment, will this great question Ik? settled. (Cries of "Good.") Let us aid them to-night. (Great applause.) But, now, gentlemen of the convention, what do we want ? (A voice "Garfield ;" followed by applause.) Bear with me a moment, hear me for this cause, and for a mo ment, 1k silent that you may hear. (Cries of "Good.") Twenty-five years ago this Republic was WEARING A TRIPLE CHAIN of bondatie. Lomr familiarity w ith traffic in the lHHli, and souls of men' had paralyzed the consciences of a ; majority 01 our jieopio, the baleful d.K-trine of State . sovereignty had , ,,, , , ,,tr...1, , ...l 1 -.1. shackled and weakened the noblest j placed on our statute books without am! most benoficient powers of the national government, and the grasp- ing power oi siavcrv was seizing tt.e virgin lermonos oi ine nesi ami dragging them into the den of eter- nal bomlage At that crisis the Re-, publican party was born. It drew jts first inspiration fn.ni .that fire of; liberty which God has lighted in ev- cry human heart, and which all the : lxnvers of 'ignorance ami tyranny can never wholly extinguish. (Ap plause.) The Republican party came to deliver and save the republic. It entered the arena where the lieleag- I ured and assailed territories were to gold.

( Applause.) 1 hen. after the storms ot battle, were heard the sweet calm words of peace sjioken bv the conquering nation, and saving to the conquered toe that lay pros trate at its feet : "This is our only revenge, that you join his in lifting into the serene firmament of the Constitution, to shine like stirs for ever and ever, the immortal princi- pies of truth and justice that all men, white or black, shall be free and stand equal before the law." ( Loud applause.) Then came the questions of reconstruction, tho public debt, and the public faith. In the settle ment of these questions the Ropuli liean jKirt v has completed its twentv five years of glorious existence, and it has sent us here to prepare it for another lustrum of duty and of vic tory. How shall wo do this great work? We cannot do it, mv friends. by assailing our Republican broth- ren. (Great applause and cries of "Good.") God forbid that I should say one word, cast a shadow upon any name on the roll of our heroes. The coming tight is our Theniiopyhe. We are standing ujkhi a narrow isthmus. If our Spartan hosts are united, we tan withstand all the Greeks that the Xerxes of Democra cy can bring against us hold our ground, this one "the stars in their course" us.

The Republican party offers to our brethren of the South the olive branch of peace, and invites them to renewed brotherhood, on this su premo condition : that it shall be ad mitted, forever and forevermore, that in the war for the Union we wore right and they w i re wrong. (Cheers.) On that supreme condition we meet them as brethren, and on no other. We ask them to share with us the blessings and honors of this great re public. (Applause.) Xow, gentlemen, not to weary you, I am about to present a name for vour consideration the name of a man who was the comrade, and as sociate, and friend of nearly all these noble dead, w hose faces look down iiixin us from these walls to-niirht.

Most oople here are troubled with what they call "soroche," headache, nausea and sometimes bleeding at the nose, mouth and ears, iiie runs so rare lit is difficult to breathe. At the invitation of the roadmaster I took a ride with him down the road. We were just ahead of the regular train, and we started off like a streak of lightning. 1 have been in a good many tight places in my life, but never in a jiosition to make my hair literally- stand on end as it did in coming down the Andes on a hand-car.
