At MOOD the organ played a medley of National Airs, with excellent effect, elic iting much applause. About two-thirds of tpe delegates were In their seats and the platform end galleries were Oiled. ??x-Senntor Barnum, of Connecticut, imirman of tho Democratic National Committee, called the Convention to order at .12.46 p. m., and presented tho Hov. Charlea W. Wcndte, of tho Unita rian Church, who invoked the throne of Grace. He spoke of the young Democ racy of America, having bc-x?me the refuge and asylum for the distressed and down-trodden throughout the world, and the light and hope-) of the Nations, and prayed that with unfaltering band every unjust law On tho Statute Book might be erased and our political life purgea from evety evil that keeps back the people from the highest measure of virtue and happiness. Above all, he continued, let there be an end of all sectional divisions and strifes. Let every root of bitterness, every occasion of estrangement be re moved, and let our whole p sople, forget ting the things that are. behind, and tressing forward to the things that are efore, be united, heart ana hand, in bonds'of mutual' confidence and good will. Help this Convention to choose for leaders in the approaching and honorable struggle men of large wisdom and expe rience, of lofty character and irreproach able life, men true and fearless in tho hour of trial, yet ardent lovers of justice and peace. Enable the members of this Convention tn rise above all self-seeking and personal preferences and discreet party zeal into the larger sentiment of public good, of. American nationality and human bfoiu?ruou?. Let them remember that ho serves his party best who best serves God. We ask thc. our action to-day may be well pleasing in the sight of Goa.

McHenry were appointed to conduct him to tho chair. Judge Hoadley's approach to the plat form was greeted with applause. The Judge proceeded to address the commit? . tee and Convention. He thanked them for their complimentary action in putting him in the chair. He pledged himself to the strictest impartiality in the admin istration of the duties assigned to him. This was: tho- only adequate method by "which he could testify his gratitvde as chairman. He would be neither the friend or foe of any candidate, though he had bis favorite in whose behalf he was both earnest and partisan. He took the ground that the representatives here wero not delegates of Congressional dis tricts, but representativo of indestructi ble Staten. [Subdued applause.] He ^ proceeded with some laudation of the * Democratic' party, for which this Con vention' t.'?ula make no new creed, whicb baa its own vitality and which would not depend for its future on tho success of itt ticket, or be crushed out by its defeat, Their duties-here were simply to declare the party will. The occasion was one ol great interest and importance. At St Louis four y cara ago they placed ir nomination two of the foremost men o the Nation. [Grent applause.] A sub sequent repetition of tho name VSamue J. Tilden" waa the occasion for nnothei outburst; tho - delegates-rising in theil neats and cheering and waving their fans Ho asserted that they were aa certainly elected as was Washington or Monroe [Subdued applause.] He denounced tin Republican party as one of fraud, whiol cheated tho people out of their choice thus proving their infidelity to Republi can principles. But if the Democrat!' party should again bo successful no CUD ning dovico of dishonest' arbitrstioi ?li nu ld rob thora of tho - fruits of thai victory. [Applause] Although tb Democrats failed' to inaugurate thci candidates,- their1 cause was not wholl; '.ost. They defeated the attempt to slea the State Government, in Florida, and n trace remained of tho carpet-baggers i: thu South except $170,000,000 of Stat debts accumulated by thom as a b?rde upon the people, and the'fact that Lou kiana hos only one rightful senator i Congress.

The committeo on credentials re assembled at 7.80 last, night. An hour and a half waa allowed for the presenta tion of the case of the Tammany con testants. All that Tammany asked was that its representative be allowed equal represen tation in tbe Convention with the sitting delegates, and this waa asked in the name of harmony in the party in New York with the statement that were it refused it would endanger the national ticket in that State, and the Democratic party was not in a position to lose one chance. The sitting delegates replied that the admission of Tammany would lose aa many votes for tho Democracy as Tam many could bring it. At ll o'clock the committee closed its doors, and went into the secret consideration of the case. TI"r_ - J ": _ _ -~ -- ~e .u"-i__ asked Kelly whether if his delegation was admitted, he would pledge himself to support the nominee of the Conven tion, whoever he might be, saying that his voto on the contest would bo influ enced by Kelly's answer. Kelly replied 1 that sneaking freely and frankly for himself alone, he would aay if ho was admitted to the Convention, and Samuel J.JTilden were nominated he would and could not support him ; but that if any 1 Other man wero nominated he would work his best for the nominee's election. Judge Comstock replied lo the same ouMtion that he would support the ; nominee of the Convention unless he was a murderer, thief or felon. At 12.15 tho committee by a voto of 82 to 4 (Arkansas, Colorado, Now Jersey . and Delaware voting "no") voted in favor of allowing the sitting delegates from New York to retain their seats. 1 M ?Ba Susan B. Anthony, Mrs. Mere wether and other representatives of tho Woman's Suffrage Association, were 1 allowed to present their case aud make 1 arguments of considerable length. The ' representatives of different States then ] submitted resolutions which they desired to be incorporated io the platform, and one or moro were submitted from most of ; the Staten All wero referred to a 8ub* 1 committee ot nine. At 10 o'clock, not twenty-five delegates : were in their eeata, and the galleries only two-thirds full. The usual demonstra tions of applause were made as the 1 prominent gentlemen came in, and when ; the banners of the Bandall and other political clubs passed up the aisles. The < fact is unmistakable, however, that there ' ia here much leos of this sort of outside < pressure for individual candidstet than there was at Chicago, The circular of the National Woman's Suffrage Associa-. lion was distributed through tho Hall, 1 signed by Mrs. Cage, as Chairmar; . Susan B. Anthony, as Vice President ; 1 Mrs. Spencer, Corresponding Secretary ; Mrs. Sheldon, Recording Secretary ; Mrs. j! Jane K. Spofibrd, Treasurer ; and a Vice ' President from each State. It demand1.? the recognition of women's rights, and thc insertion in the platform ot a plank 1 filedging the Democratic party to use all ts Dower to secure to tho women of the nation protection in the exercise of their 1 rights of suffrage. Tho woman's suffrage representatives were honoied with sar castic applause from the audience ns they 1 took their sears. After a brilliant voluntary on the ergab, the military band -played vari?os nation's)! and operatic airs; "Yankee ' Doodle" alone seemed to arouso tbo au- 1 dionce. Tho Convention was called to 1 order at 10.40,'when eli. the delegates 1 appeared to be on bandi ' Prayer was ' oflercd by the Rev. Dr. Chas. Taylor, of Covington, Kentucky. He prayed for 1 harmony, and the yielding of all personal 1 preferences to the general welfare. ' ? Mr. Stantenberry, of Indiana, moved a ! refution that cu-'iving soldiers of the 1 Moxican war, .'.id their widows and ; orphans should JO put, by Congress, ob the same footing as the soldiers of 1812. Referred to tho platform committee. The chair announced that tho first business in order was tho report of the committee on credentials, aud asked if lt : was ready to report. There was an in- , tcrval ot several minutes before there j waa any response. Meantime the chair I ordered to bo read a telegram from Rey nolca Basin of Now York, saying : "Bon fir."? are ready to be lighted with three - cheers for the Democratio nominee." [Laughter and applause.] At. 10.64 Jud?0 Hoadley announced that tho chairman of the credentials committee wai not in the house, and called ou the committee on permanent orptaniiatiou. rid>.-MartIri, ehs'rman, then-submitted tl-? report, unanimously agreed upon by tho committee, naming Ex-Gov. Steven son, of Kentucky, as permanent Presi dent. Mr..Stevenson's name was received with applause. When the report had beeb read. Mr. Young, of Georgia, as a qucstlrn cf privilege, demanded to. be permitted to present the report of the committee on credentials. The chair said tho report on permanent organisa tion was beforo tho house, and asked the couventiou'a will. Mr. Martin moved that his report bo adopted, and on that asked tho previous question, which ho v.ubseqnintfy!v;ithdr8W. Mr. Jeffries, of vjcuiaiaua, moved to postpone further proceedings on the re port un pciuiaiiDiit organization Until the Convention had received and neted on the . credontlar?' committee rcport.

They admit both dele gations by agreement1 between the two, ?he united delegation to cast thc vote of the State. They abm reported in favor of the sitting delegates from thoTwcnty rixlh District of Pennsylvania. In the case cf New York, the comr?tttee bod carefully weighed the whole evidoneo. and with singular unanimity bad voted tn allow tho r'tting members to retain their scats. '. (Great applause.} There were no ot*xr contestants anywhere, and tho enmmihee report a full list of dele gates entitled to seato. Mr. Carroll, of Kunian, presented the minority report.' it was. proposed to have tl:;; Teeing clerk read it, but tho chair said the gentleman from Kansai should have bis own way about it. [Applause.] Mr. Carroll proceeded to read bis re port, interrupted with boisterous cries of "Louder, ioudor. Let the clerk read it." The following is a synopsis of tho majority and minority reports : The ma jority report of the committee on creden tials was read as follows : Massachusetts -two delegations are present from >Ias sachusetts, one known as the Fanciul Hall delegation, and the other ns the Mechanics'.Hall Convention. By joint request made by the delegation to the -,^amittee on credentials, we earnestly -..om mend that both delegations bo admitted to scats in tho Convention, the united delegations to cast the vote tc which the State is entitled. [Applause.] Pennsylvania-In tho case of tho con testing delegations from tboTweuty-sixih Congressional District of Pennsylvania, we report that the sitting delegates arc entitled tc retain their 6eats as membert of the Convention. New York-Tho committee have care fully examined all the evidenco brough! before it bearing on the contested eas? from the State of New York. It rare fully and patiently considered all tl? facts in the contest, and weighed tin evidence presented by both sides, a u) b] a singularly unanimous vote if allowi the sitting <aembers to retain th tl.- seats [General applause, except from Tarn many benches.] With these exceptio <;, there was uo contest before the commit tee, and wo herewith submit a list o delegates daly entitled to seats. The minority report was read by Mi Carroll of Kansas, one of the committee os follows : "After heaving tho contesting delega tiona from the State of New York, w find that the State is divided into tw factions, each having all essentials c nnrfA?t Murty or?i?.!?\?iit!'_'?? and each sa Buming* to 'represent regularly a larg body of Democratic voters of that State that each of said party divisions hus bel a State Convention under & regular cal and has duly elected delegates to renn sent the State of New York in the Cori vention; that the attitude of these fa< tiona is precisely analogous to that of th Democrats of that State in 1856 ; that I unite the party at that time, the Nntiom Convention divided the delegations, a lowing each to cast half the votes 1 which the State was entitled in that Cot vention ; that such action united the part in tho State of New York, and eventuate the election of a Democratic Presiden We believe that a similar course at th time will result in n kindred success, ar we therefore recommend the adoption i the following resolution : "Resolved, That the Faulkner bronc nf Democratic delegation from the Sta if New York be allowed to cast fifty vot in this Convention, and that tho Sbak ipr ar 3 Hall Democracy be allowed cast twenty votes in said Convention, ai that each of said divisions shall dote min J its methods of counting BUI votas." After the reports had been folly ai freely discussed, a vote was taken on tl substitution of the minority report, whi Btood 205} for and 457 against. So t minority report was rejected. The question recurring on the adc tion of the majority report, it was adc ted by a rira voce vote amid grent s pl ouse. A resolution was adopted inviting t contestants from New York to seats the floor of the Convention during session. On motion of Martin, of Delaware, t roport and resolution from the commit on permanent organization was th adopted. The chair appointed a co mittee to conduct the permanent prc dent to the chair, consisting of Senat McDonald, of Indiana, Bntler, of Soi Carolina, and Thomas O'conner, of T< nessee. Mr. Stevenson not being present, i band entertained the audience while \ committee went after him.: It was 1 whon Mr. Stevenson arrived, and i Sresented to the Convention as its pn eut. Judge Hoadley In handing t tho gavel os a symbol of authority s it could fall into no worthier hands, said he accepted tho chair with high predation of the honor and responsit ty of tho trust confided to him. knew that ho was not indebted for 1 compliment to any personal merit-, bu s tributo to bis grand old Common wei and its devotion in sunshine and sb to D?mocratie principles. In the ni af Kentuckyv therefore, ho presented thanks. He then wc*tornea represei tivo men of the Democratic- -party Cincinnati.. There was' joy in t! coming. He saw ici the faces before-I that tho 'flag which they pnt out vt be borno triumphantly to victory. [ plauso.] He proceeded at some kr to extol the Democratic party, itt his and its mission, butas his faco vina tut away from the reporters .little of it c< be beard.

Hia nomination will be the firesage of victory in November,- from bo Qulf to the Ocean. [Applause.] Tho call for Indiana was the signal for the most enthusiastic cheering outside the delegates' seats, which was renewed wildly as the banner of Thomas A. Hen dricks moved from the rear platform. Senator Voorbses, of Indiana, desired to present the name ol a distinguished citizen of Indiana, who was fit to bo President. Aftrr complimentary allu sions to all the candidates already pre sented, all of whom he knew were worthy of every honor, he Haid, that there was none, however, with more commendation in tho works of his life than attached to Thoa. A. Hendricks. [Great applause.] Indiana bad for twenty years been sn important battlo ground of tho Demo cratic party and alie bad never faltered with Hendricks in tho front. [Applause.] There were no divided councils in Indi ana. There waa no treachery here. Thoy were unanimous and cordial in their pre sentation of the gentleman whom he had named. He was worthy of all support, and hts administration, if nominated and elected, would prove as successful as his administration in every station he had filled in the past. To tho South, who had been more faithful ? To the North, who had been truer ? Indiana bad nailed bia colors to the mast, would stand by them and go down with them in honor if need be. But if Indiana's hopes wero realized here, it would be the presage of a great victory. (Applause.) When Illinois was called Samuel S. Marshall, after a somewhat tiresome, funeral political speech .in which he was aterrupted by impatient calla of "lime, time," and confusion, said the American people now demand as their leader a man worthy of the cause. Onoof inflexi bio honor, indomitable courage ; a mnn of the people : one who is a legislator, and finally, on behalf of unanimous Illinois he named the gallant soldier, Wr,. B. Morrison. When Massachusetts was call?id on, Mr. Salstonstall ascended the platform to second tho nomination of Bayard, [Ap plause.] They all desired candidates who would elevate the stations to which they would ho called, who would honor then offices more than they would be honored by them. Such a man was Bayard His nomination would excite throughout tho land the greatest enthusiasm and at tract hosts who bavo never heretofore voted the Democratic ticket No act o: his could be pointed to which admits o: doubtful construction. In such a nomi nation the country would find relief. - Hi had courag? to act all times according t< his sonso of right. Tbe corin try wai weary of morely available men. It want? tho best, and the beat would bo the mos available. [Applause.] Without a bio upon bis life, public or private, like hi great prototype, wi thont fear and wi thou reproach, he was the most fit candidat for President of the United States. New York being called, voices in tb galleries called "Tilden 1 Tilden I'* an were greeted with furious hisses. Who; Ohio was called, Mr. Sweeny of that Stat took the platform and read a speech, i which he said that the Democracy < Ohio in State Convention, with ob&olut unanimity, had determined to presec the name of Allen G. Thurman. H would forbear eulogy, for that would nc be grateful to tho man whose name L presented, nor would bo consume tin in useless biography. When Pennsylvania waa cnlled; ii chairman said that they had no candida to present, but ono of their delegates di sire to present a name. , Mr. Daniel Dougherty, of Philadelphi took the platform, as he said, to nomma one whose name would reconcile all fa tiona aud' carry Pennsylvania, lydian Connecticut,.

The names of the Hendricks, Thurman ard Hancock, were received willi conalueraldo applause, that of Hancock bel?g greatest, taoet enthusiastic and apparently, most spun taneous and natural. Mr. Breckenridge moved that the Con* vention procc-rd to ballot, and urged the importance, of proceeding with. business ana setting through with it as quickly as possible. Some oat? urged they should flrst adopt tho platform. Mr. Breckenridge Insisted on having a ballot now. There were no differences of opinion in the party now which made the adoption of a platform before ballot* lng a necessity. Judge Hoadley moved that the Conven tion adjourn until 10 o'clock to-r-jrrow. Amid great cries of "no, r j." "call roll," "call roll," Mr. McGafferty of Maraachusetts. charged that in the viva voce vote on toe motion to adjourn jibe galleries had joined and be asked a vote by a call of the roll. ! The Chair said that ho.bsd ??4 yet announced the result of tho voto on the motion, and ordered a call of the St**** on adjournment, which resulted as fbi-' lows: Ayes 817}, noes 895}.- So the motion to adjourn was lost.

How to defraud the Treasury of the vast > amount which waa tbe difference between j theso two Bums, was ti e problem whiph " puzzled Ames and his follows. Ho soir?

Thia company - should take tbe contract for building.the read, should pay the coat thereof out cf tho government grant, and divide among ita stockholders the immense profit remain ing.

Now began threats of investigation by Ccdgrcss into tbe conduct of the work. A. Mr. Mc comb entered ault for tho possession of some Btock he claimed, and by tho pub lication of certain letters from; Ames called public attention to tho matter. Ames was empowered to bribe what in fluential member*! of Congress he could, and aeon reported that the had "placed three hnudred and forty-three shares Of stock wbot? tho* would da viS-sS good.'-" One of the prominent members so bribed waa James A.
