Cbicaoo, Ii.ly JuIj 10.—The deaki
are cleared for the balloting which be*
gini wheu the democratic national
cooTention reauemblea at 10 o'clock
today. The real itiuggle ofleni with
the delegatee wrought to an intense
pitch over the aeneatlonal develop*
mint! Of jeeterday, when the Bryan
wave swept through the convention
and threatened for a time to stampede
it then and there. It has disturbed all
calculations and has thrown the ranks
of other candidacies into confusion.
The day opened with a continuance
of cool weather which has attended
the convention from the beginning
The wind of the prairies toward the
lake, yet it is as balmy as that of early
spring or late fall. There is a haze in
the air like that of an Indian summer
The sensation of yesterday and last
night had been contagious both within
and without the convention ball and
the public at large was eager to see its
expected development when the con
vention opened today. Chairman
White and other executive officers con
ferred early in the day as to the desira
bility of closing the doors against the
unruly crowd, in case of repetition
of the disorder and diecourtesy of last
night, when Senator Turpie, Senator
Vest and others who made nominating
speeches, battled in vain against the
confueed murmur oi hurrahs sad cat
calls. While there was no disposition
to check the expression of exuberant
feeling at proper moment, yet there
was a determiaatioa to prevent it tak
ing absolute eoatrol of the coaveatioa
sad to preeeat it from transecting
baeiaeea.

excitement when the second ballot
started and thousands of pencils were
at work taking down figures.

A lady In Sylvenla. Q»., relates the
followliig-teue story of e most thrilling
experience through which a friend of
hers paused some years ego, end which
hui never been published :
It weu near Mtlledgeville that this
friend—a beautiful young lady—lived.
Pauline was her name. She was en
gaged to be married to a gentleman
from another State. The eppolntet)
time had come, and the large house
wan filled with guests for the occasion.
There was one very particular friend,
however, a young lady, whom the
bride-elect wished to have present, but
it was impossible for her to get there
before the morning after the night ap
pointed for the marriage. Shipiflele-
graphed her friend to come, and post
poned the wedding until the following
morning.
- That night they held a large recep
tlon at the bouse, and numbers ot the
guests ‘remained over, so that they
might be present next morning. The
house being crowded, the young lady
gave up her own room to friends, and
with her maid went over into an unused
chamber, somewhat separated from
the other part olthe house, and which
was called the “blue room." It was up
on the second floor, and" wits connected
by lattice work with the'main building
Her father proteuted against her going
there, but she said she was not afraid.
The little maid, after straightening
up the room, lay down on a pallet to
sleep, and the young lady, extinguish
ing the light, sat before the dying
blaze on the hearth, lost in revery
Soon the maid began to sob, and said
•he felt au uaoasy that she was afraid
to sleep in the room. Not wishing to
he disturbed further, the jrouag lady
told her she could go, aed the girl
hastily sought other quarters.
Seated before the fireplace, the young
bride soon felt a strange uneasiness
herself, as If the air was charged with
someth lag. Mb# •Tied to dismiss it,
but la vain To still ber feeilag she
managed, with a groat deai of effort.

wblla it is dry in Aikou, Kdgnflnld nnd
over portions of tba western counties
generally, tbs raias have been more
copious than crops needed ip Chester-
field, Berkeley and the eastern counties
generally.
Farmars are generally up with their
work, and such fields as are being laid
by are in a well cultivated, clean con
dition.
Old corn is shout made and premises
good yields, except that locally in a
few counties, notably Anderson, New
berry, Aiken, Edgefield, Union, Clh-
rendon, York, Spartanburg, Laurens
and Lexington, it has been too dry,
end in a few of the lower counties it is
tiring badly on sandy lands. Later
planting has generally a good, healthy
color, and is being laid by, free from
grass and weeds, in tine growing con
dition, The corn crop, as a whole, is
now,in a better condition than it was a
week ago.
Cotton, as a rule, continued the im
provement noted a week ago. There
are a few localities where it has not
done well, but generally it is growing
and fruiting satisfactorily. In Chester-
field, owing to too much rain, the lower
leaves are turning red and dying.
Itain was needed in a number of
counties. Lice have about all left cot
ton, but it is apparent that they did
considerable damage, especially in
Darlington and Orangeburg. In Pick
ens and the western counties generally
it looks wonderfully green and healthy.
in portions of Greenville it is begin-
nlBg to bloom on top.——— —_
There was too little sunshine in
Berkeley where it has a yellow color,
blooming too much, and gives signs of
maturing too early. The plant is large
in York, but fruiting proportionately.
There are local reports of poor cotton,
but on the whole its condition is very
promising. Sea Island cotton is in
good condition and growing rapidly.

HOW BHK UK AT UKR RIVAL.
A Rapid Voyage Over the Sea Re
gained Her Husband.
In New York they *re talking over
the quick and successful generalship
of Mrs. Franz Molineaux, who beat
hpr rival over the sea by four hours
and won back her husband's lover-The-
story is quite Interesting.:
Molineaux had been wealthy in Ber
lin. He had married the daughter of
a rich grain merchant. When he
failed in business he quarreled witn
„his wife, for she made some remark
about his poverty which angered him.
He left her, saying that he would go
to America and begin life over again.
They nera both proud, and she per
mitted him l) go alone, although in
her heart she loved him. Women as
well as men are stubborn sometimes.
The man came over hero, and by
hard work established himself and was
in receipt of a pood salary. Ho
thought sometimes of the woman over

he would never speak to her again,
and in a spirit of pique he sent across

The first yell of triamph was give*
wbca Keatochy cast ber vote for Bryan
When Louisiana was coeated th* vot*
stood Bryan. 160; Bland. 16
It was thee a ruth for Bryaa.
Texas remained (oval to Blend.
When Virginia wan counted tba vote
■tood Bryan 369, Blaud 91.
8tocc of Missouri took the platform
and asked pertriasioo to read a letter'
fiom Bland. Tkia letter from Bland
asks that bis name be withdrawn at
any time when it appetra that some
others caudidate seemed to be the
choice of the convention. Acting on
thia letter Governor Stone withdrew
the name of Bland and cast the vote of
Missouri for Bryan.
Then followed a break to Bryan
until all wondered if any name had
been before the convention.
Then followed motions to make the
nomination unanimous and amid the
confusion the chairman announced the
nomination unanimous. This, seemed
to break down the delegate* and a mo
tion to take a recess to 8 o’clock was
about as unanimously adopted.
KVKNINO SESSION.
It is gossip that the Ohio break to
Bryan was made in the interest of Mc
Lean for vice president. But there is
a wheel within a wheel. It is argned
that two western men will not suit and
Hibley, of Pennsylvania, William*,
of Massachusetts, and Sewell, of
Maine, will be prominent candidates.
Howell, of Georgia, is also a p issibil-
ity, while Daniel, of Virginia, is
tzlked about. McLean, of Ohio, with
his barrel oDmone? see|ns to be the
favorite.
BThen the convention met this even
ing General Bragg of Wiaconsin rose
to a queet{5n of high and exalted
State privileie He taid aoma one

In critical moment*, a* at the battle

of the man *howed at the best. The
territtic collision with the Union troop'
had thrown the Confederate line into
disorder. The gallant nnd lamented

a death wound Captain Armstrong,
with the instinct of the true soidio

was to attract the attention of the men

The check was for but a few hours, for
the Union lino of battle presented an
unbroken front from the Appomatox
river to Dinwiddle, and was only await-.,

capture of that important point a gen

were bursting, about our ears the bul

utes ~»e lay wounded and helpless.
The hours of anxious suspense which
followed, before the ambulance came
up, the deeoeniug of twilight into
night a* we lay in the field hospital,
the brief examinations of the surgeon
and then—utter darkness, complete
unconsciousness, and a hasty awaken
ing to the work of the knife. It was
ail over, and we were maimed for life.
The momentrry bitterness soon passed,
and from that hour the deprivation
ha* occasioned no regrets. Thus we
dreamed ; and dreamed too of the won
derful kindness of the good people of
town as they ministered every day to
our comfort. A quiet night in the ho
tel, “ Colonial Inn,” only deepened the
impressions of the afternoon.
We were glad to be alone. An old
resident showed us all over the battle
fiqld, which was about a pile out of
the town. Having himself participated
in the fight he was fully posted as to
movements of both armies. Our inti

all dead or removed. Not one of them
