Mr. Grady moved to place upon the roll the names ot certain delegate elected by the Westchester delegates, and an adherent of Tammany hall. This waa opposed on the part of Irving hall. Col. Wood made a strong speech in favor of the motion of Mr. Grady. Mr. D. Cady Herrick, of Albany, moved that the delegation of the Fourteenth district be divided. Mr. Grady showed, in a powerful speech, why this proposal should not prevail; that seven of the twelve delegates selected the ticket of delegates and elector, headed by Col. Wood. Mr. Herrick made a bitter retort, intimating tut Tammany hall wanted to secure more than her share. BLAINE AND LOGAN. POLITICAL DRlff. BISHOP SIMPSON DEAD. A JUBILEE SERVICE. The New Tricycle.

London, June 19.—A most impressive scene was presented at the Metropolitan tabernacle, at Newington-Butts, in this city, the occasion being the jribilee service in celebration of the fiftieth birthday of the Rev. Charles Haddon Bpurgeon. The vast edifice was packod In every part with a congregation which was especially notable for the large number of evangelical clergymen which it contained Almost every Baptist minister in the city was present, and there were also clerical and lay delegations from Baptist churches in all parts of the United Kingdom. The principal event of the evening was the discourse by Mr. Spurgeon. This was mainly personal and reminiscent, the pulpiteer giving an outline of his miniST trations from the time when he had, as "the boy preacher," conducted revivals in his native county, Essex. He said that it was true that these ministrations had been blessed with a wonderful degree of success in bringing souls -to salvation, but the secret of the suocess was simple. It was due solely to the blessing of the Holy Spirit attending his work, and this blessing had been obtained, and could only be obtained, by earnest, continued prayer, supported by absolute belief, both of the mind and -heart, in the efficiency of prayer and the reality of Him to whom it was addressed.

Y, June 19.—The truce be- Bangor, Me., June 19.—Blaine and Logan arrived here from Ellsworth, accompanied by Senator Hale, at whose home tho candidates have been visiting. They were met at the depot by a delegation of citizens under the direction of Postmaster Farnham. Their arrival was announced by firing of cannon, ringing of bells and blowing of whistles. They were escorted to a large square on Broadway, where 3,000 people assemblod, and where a platform had been erected. Mayor Humphrey presided, and speeches of welcome were made by ex-CHlef Justice Appleton and Hon. S. S. Blake. Mr. Blaine was then introduced and said:' tween Tammany and the County Democracy, of New York, reduced the convention to rather a tame affair. There was nothing like a struggle in tho earlier proceedings. The only contest of consequence was that when tho Purcell and Raines delegations from the second district cf Monroe came up. Mr. Purceli'a action in the convention forced the issue squarely. The compromise effected by the state committee, giving both contesting delegations seats in the convention, with half a vote to each, was rejected by Mr. Furcell, speaking for himself and colleague. "We decline to take any part in the proceedings of this convention," said Mr. Purcell, "until the question of our regularity is passed upon by the committee on contested seats and by tho convention." This was a quiet, dignified statement, yet it was a kind of small bombshell, and left the state committee without the satisfaction of having their scheme tried. In the preliminary proceedings the name of Gov. Cleveland was not pronounced, and consequently there was no chance of a demonstration in bis favor. Indirectly, indeed, the temporary chairman alluded to the wise and economic administration Cleveland had rendered the state, and the allusion was applauded, but nothing comparable to the enthusiasm manifested over the nartes of Samuel J. Tilden, John Kelly, John C. Jacobs and others. An attempt to get up a boom for Flower was made, but It proved a failure. Some maladroit person in the gallery at a most inopportune time cried out: "Three cheers for Flower," which was responded to by a feeble effort at two or three delegates. To most of these who had closely observed the situation here from the start, it was evident that there was moro wind than substance in the Flower canvas. If there were at atime a majority of the delegates pledged, to his. support, they have cooled in ardor pretty fast, and though Mr. Flower A motion was offered by CoL Wood to refer the matter to the nine uncontested delegates. This was lost. Fits: All iiu stopped tree by Dr. Kline's great nerve restorer .No fits after first day's utD4 Marvelous cures' Treatise and $2.00 trii 1 bottle sent free to fit cases.

Go to 't- Mr. Grady then moved that it is the sense of thi i convention that Tammany hall is entitled to one vote in tha Twenty-fourth assembly district of New York. This wa s to simpli y the matter, and prepare the way for a final motion. Ex-Corporation Counsel Wi liara C. Whitney seconded the motion of Mr. Grady, aud state J fvrther that the list ha uled up by CoL Woo l was undoubtedly the le; al one. ., Mr. Grady's motion was carried amid great applaise. The succeeding motion to adopt the list was c irried without dissent. Judge Samuel Hand offered a motion nominating for judges of the court of appeals, the two presen. incumbents, and Andrews and Rapalo, whose terms expire next December. Fagin, of Rensselaer, opposed the motion. Delano C. Calvin, of New York, made a powei :'ul speech in opposition to the effort to make he matter partisan, and paid a high compl ment to Judge Andrews. Tennessee Democratic Convention. "I yon, my friends, for the hearty welcome you have given us this evening. I have been a visit to Ellsworth a9 the attendant of Gen. Logan. Our trip is not a political one, but it seems the sturdy Republicans of Maine could not permit the opportunity to pass without manifesting their ardor for the principles of Republicanism and their esteem for the gallant soldier who accompanies me. I do not attribute this demonstration as personal to myself. No man can play the hero among his friends and neighbors. That must he reserved for strangers and other states. We are here to do honor to our distinguished guest, and I invite the hosts of Maine Republicans to join with me in paying tributo to a soldier, who, as a Democrat, wns one or the first to take up arms in defense of his country." Nashvii.lk, Tonn., Juna 19.—The Democratic convention was one of the largest and snost enthusiastic in the history of the stato. Ex-Crongressman 'Atkins was permanent chairman, and came out strongly on a tariff for revenuo. Judge D. L Snodgrass was temporary chairman. Hon. John F. House, Hon. Albert F. McNeal, Hon. S. A.

Pray without ceasing. Pray upon entering your pulpit, during the service of song, and buring your sermon. While preaching to the unconverted, imploring them to torn to the Savior, prelnde each appeal to them with a petition to God to add the force of divine conviction to your words, and thus your tongues will become those of men and of angels, irresistible in their potency."*akim6 Washington, June 19.—Congressman Finerty, of Illinois, editor of The Chicago Citizen, denies the truth of the published statements that he has indorsed Blaine and Logan. He says this is, as usual, the season of political lies, but ho cannot allow deliberate falsehoods to go uncontradicted. Neither his paper nor himself has "indorsed" any political ticket. Tho Citizen is entirely independent in politics. The Season of Political llta BISHOP MATTHEW SIMPSON. Philadepiiia, June 19.—Bishop Matthew Simpson, tho venerable prelate of the Methodist Episcopal church died at ton minutes to 9 o'clock yesterday morning. Several times during the night breathing almost ceased but he rallied again and again. He passed away calmly without a struggle. Mr. Gad H. Lee nominated Rufus W. Peekh im. of Albany. At the conclusion of Mr. Blaine's remarks, Gen. Logan was Introduced. He thanked the people of Maine, and Bangor in particular, for the hearty welcome he had roceived, and congratulated the people of Maine upon the nomination of one of her sons as the standard bearer of the Republican party. His nomination at Chicago was the legitimate outgrowth of the popular will. By a vast majority of the delegates to that convention it was decided that the time had come when America and Americans should be placed in a more favorable light before the nations 9f the earth. Ilia people of this country, under our form of government, have claimed the right to express their views and make their choice of the man who shall hold the highest office in the country. Mr. Dwight L. Moody, the American evangelist, followed Mr. Spurgeon. After a few words of congratulation to the pastor and the people of the Tabernacle, Mr. Moody said he dteired to heartily and thankfully testify faD j inspiration he had obtained from the preachings of Mr. Spurgeon and from a contemplation of the example afforded by his life work. Mr. Grady strongly and eloquently deprecated the admission of partisan feeling into tha question. Cadiz, Ohio, gave thn eloquent Bishop Simpson to the world, June 31, 1811. At 21 be graduated at Allegany college, Meadville, Pa. A oourae of medical studies was then pursued for about a year, and in 1833 he started in business as a physician. Boon, however, he abandoned medicine to enter the pulpit, and the same year obtaipod license to preach in Methodist churclioe, and since then few preachers have accomplished as much good through their eloqurnca as Bishop Simpson has. It is somewhat remarkable that he achieved such success as a preacher, when it is known that in early youth he was agarae. to speaking in public, and a knowledge of this (act ouglit to make conspicuous the valt#of hard work as one of the chief lessons of his career. His mastery of English speech and his attainments as a scholar were the products of laborious application under the stimulus ol on inextinguishably teal in tho causa to which he devoted his life wbu in 1828, at the ago of 18 years, he was received into the Methodist church. After his graduation, his first pastoral work was in the* Pittsburg conference, whore he was soon recognized as a young man of unusual abilitv and zeal. He was professor of natural science in Allegheny college from 1837 to 1839, president of the Indiana Asbury University from 1839 to 1848, and editor of The Western Christian Advocate from 1848 to 1853, the latter year being the date of his ordination as a bishop, in Boston. For thirty-two years ho has performed the work of the bishopric with distinguished efficiency, and his life of seventythree years has been one of the most useful of his time. Mr. D. Cady Herrick withdrew the nomination of Judge Peckham. Mr. Lee, of Poughkeepsie, withdrew the name of Judge Barnard. The motion to nominate Judges Andrews and Rapallo was then carried, amid gkeat enthusiasm. Bangor, Mr, June 19.—The Democratic fourth district convention in this city nominated John P. Lynch, Machias, for congress, Joseph F. Snow, of Bangar, presidential elector, A. J. Chase, of Sebec, and John P. Donworth, of delegates to Chicago, and Calvin Chamberlin, of Foxcroft, and Jefferson Swett, of Eastport, alternates. The name of Cleveland v/as loudly cheered. The delegates are for him. All for Cleveland. Brief addresses were also made by Mr. Pentecost and other evangelists, and the utmost enthusiasm was manifested by the vast congregation. has undoubtedly a devoted following, the large vote vhich was supposed to be sure for Hiiyi has rapidly fallen off. The strongest contributing cauec to this remit was the sodden pacification of the Tammany malcontents, by being conceded more than their demands. The list of presidential electors recommended by the committee was then read It was headed by Oswald Ottendorfer and William Purcell, whose names were received with cheers. The list is as follows: Robbed on a West Shore Train. For Elector?-a t Large—Oswald Ottendorfer, of New York; William Purcell, of Monroe.Syracuse, June 19.—Dr. Albert Mayermoss, of Minneapolis, Minn., left the Aster house in New York, for home. He had 93,600, and publicly dtvttsd it before leaving the house, putting CUO in his watch pocket, and the remainder in tfc* Inside waietcoat pocket) where he pinned It in. He took the Cortland street ferry for the West Shore train. He saw two men on the] boat, and again in-the can who wore in the hotel when he exposed his money. Upon maring Kingston two man began playing thr»jaard monte. Mayermoss held aloft from the game, but consented to change money for the gamblers. As he did so, seven or eight men gathered ground him. One grabbed his C800; in the scuffle his waistcoat was oat open and the 13,200 extracted therefrom. An alarm was raised, but the men left the train at Kingston. Mayermoss was told that there was no police there, and in his excitement be came on here and related his' story to the police with tears in his eyes. Chief Wright advised him to go back to New York and lay his case before Inspector Byrnes. He left on the 9:80 train on the Central road for New York. Mayermoes has a good mind picture of the men. "The action of the convention was but the voice of' the people announcing in unmistakable terms that your honored citizen was their choioe for tho position. The people know who they want and what they want, and if I was to describe the man it would be something in the way. They want a man at the head of the nation who is ahle to perform the duties of that position; they want a man who has examined into and has knowl - edge of the form of government; who understands the interests of this great people, and who will use all means for their protection; a man who jinderstands the wants of the laborers of the country and will use his influence to protect them; they want a man to practice commercial interests; they want a man who understands the present relationship of this country with Mexico and the South Amerioon states, and the capacities of thoee countries and rich valleys of tlie Congo, and also will endeavor to increuM our business with Other localities; they want a man who will nutke the country honored at home and respected abroad; tliey « ant r. man who will in a peaceful way ra ke the citizens of the United States to lie "p -otectod at home and abroad, they want a man who understands the provisions of the con ;iitutions and laws that have beeu enacte 1 under the aame—a man who will not only tfitey that instrument but will enforce tho laws enacted for the protection of American people.

Decrees are also filed iu the United States court perpetually enjoining them from interfering. The deeds are in favor of the Mowry heirs and those who have obtained titles from them. This case has been on trial in the various courts for five or six years. The following is the state committee: first district, Moyer, jr.; second district, M. J. Coffee; third district, James W.

Wood made a strong speech in favor of the motion of Mr. Grady. Mr. D. Cady Herrick, of Albany, moved that the delegation of the Fourteenth district be divided. Mr. Grady showed, in a powerful speech, why this proposal should not prevail; that seven of the twelve delegates selected the ticket of delegates and elector, headed by Col. Wood. Mr. Herrick made a bitter retort, intimating tut Tammany hall wanted to secure more than her share. BLAINE AND LOGAN. POLITICAL DRlff. BISHOP SIMPSON DEAD. A JUBILEE SERVICE. The New Tricycle.

London, June 19.—A most impressive scene was presented at the Metropolitan tabernacle, at Newington-Butts, in this city, the occasion being the jribilee service in celebration of the fiftieth birthday of the Rev. Charles Haddon Bpurgeon. The vast edifice was packod In every part with a congregation which was especially notable for the large number of evangelical clergymen which it contained Almost every Baptist minister in the city was present, and there were also clerical and lay delegations from Baptist churches in all parts of the United Kingdom. The principal event of the evening was the discourse by Mr. Spurgeon. This was mainly personal and reminiscent, the pulpiteer giving an outline of his miniST trations from the time when he had, as "the boy preacher," conducted revivals in his native county, Essex. He said that it was true that these ministrations had been blessed with a wonderful degree of success in bringing souls -to salvation, but the secret of the suocess was simple. It was due solely to the blessing of the Holy Spirit attending his work, and this blessing had been obtained, and could only be obtained, by earnest, continued prayer, supported by absolute belief, both of the mind and -heart, in the efficiency of prayer and the reality of Him to whom it was addressed.

Y, June 19.—The truce be- Bangor, Me., June 19.—Blaine and Logan arrived here from Ellsworth, accompanied by Senator Hale, at whose home tho candidates have been visiting. They were met at the depot by a delegation of citizens under the direction of Postmaster Farnham. Their arrival was announced by firing of cannon, ringing of bells and blowing of whistles. They were escorted to a large square on Broadway, where 3,000 people assemblod, and where a platform had been erected. Mayor Humphrey presided, and speeches of welcome were made by ex-CHlef Justice Appleton and Hon. S. S. Blake. Mr. Blaine was then introduced and said:' tween Tammany and the County Democracy, of New York, reduced the convention to rather a tame affair. There was nothing like a struggle in tho earlier proceedings. The only contest of consequence was that when tho Purcell and Raines delegations from the second district cf Monroe came up. Mr. Purceli'a action in the convention forced the issue squarely. The compromise effected by the state committee, giving both contesting delegations seats in the convention, with half a vote to each, was rejected by Mr. Furcell, speaking for himself and colleague. "We decline to take any part in the proceedings of this convention," said Mr. Purcell, "until the question of our regularity is passed upon by the committee on contested seats and by tho convention." This was a quiet, dignified statement, yet it was a kind of small bombshell, and left the state committee without the satisfaction of having their scheme tried. In the preliminary proceedings the name of Gov. Cleveland was not pronounced, and consequently there was no chance of a demonstration in bis favor. Indirectly, indeed, the temporary chairman alluded to the wise and economic administration Cleveland had rendered the state, and the allusion was applauded, but nothing comparable to the enthusiasm manifested over the nartes of Samuel J. Tilden, John Kelly, John C. Jacobs and others. An attempt to get up a boom for Flower was made, but It proved a failure. Some maladroit person in the gallery at a most inopportune time cried out: "Three cheers for Flower," which was responded to by a feeble effort at two or three delegates. To most of these who had closely observed the situation here from the start, it was evident that there was moro wind than substance in the Flower canvas. If there were at atime a majority of the delegates pledged, to his. support, they have cooled in ardor pretty fast, and though Mr. Flower A motion was offered by CoL Wood to refer the matter to the nine uncontested delegates. This was lost. Fits: All iiu stopped tree by Dr. Kline's great nerve restorer .No fits after first day's utD4 Marvelous cures' Treatise and $2.00 trii 1 bottle sent free to fit cases.

This wa s to simpli y the matter, and prepare the way for a final motion. Ex-Corporation Counsel Wi liara C. Whitney seconded the motion of Mr. Grady, aud state J fvrther that the list ha uled up by CoL Woo l was undoubtedly the le; al one. ., Mr. Grady's motion was carried amid great applaise. The succeeding motion to adopt the list was c irried without dissent. Judge Samuel Hand offered a motion nominating for judges of the court of appeals, the two presen. incumbents, and Andrews and Rapalo, whose terms expire next December. Fagin, of Rensselaer, opposed the motion. Delano C. Calvin, of New York, made a powei :'ul speech in opposition to the effort to make he matter partisan, and paid a high compl ment to Judge Andrews. Tennessee Democratic Convention. "I yon, my friends, for the hearty welcome you have given us this evening. I have been a visit to Ellsworth a9 the attendant of Gen. Logan. Our trip is not a political one, but it seems the sturdy Republicans of Maine could not permit the opportunity to pass without manifesting their ardor for the principles of Republicanism and their esteem for the gallant soldier who accompanies me. I do not attribute this demonstration as personal to myself. No man can play the hero among his friends and neighbors. That must he reserved for strangers and other states. We are here to do honor to our distinguished guest, and I invite the hosts of Maine Republicans to join with me in paying tributo to a soldier, who, as a Democrat, wns one or the first to take up arms in defense of his country." Nashvii.lk, Tonn., Juna 19.—The Democratic convention was one of the largest and snost enthusiastic in the history of the stato. Ex-Crongressman 'Atkins was permanent chairman, and came out strongly on a tariff for revenuo. Judge D. L Snodgrass was temporary chairman. Hon. John F. House, Hon. Albert F. McNeal, Hon. S. A.

While preaching to the unconverted, imploring them to torn to the Savior, prelnde each appeal to them with a petition to God to add the force of divine conviction to your words, and thus your tongues will become those of men and of angels, irresistible in their potency."*akim6 Washington, June 19.—Congressman Finerty, of Illinois, editor of The Chicago Citizen, denies the truth of the published statements that he has indorsed Blaine and Logan. He says this is, as usual, the season of political lies, but ho cannot allow deliberate falsehoods to go uncontradicted. Neither his paper nor himself has "indorsed" any political ticket. Tho Citizen is entirely independent in politics. The Season of Political llta BISHOP MATTHEW SIMPSON. Philadepiiia, June 19.—Bishop Matthew Simpson, tho venerable prelate of the Methodist Episcopal church died at ton minutes to 9 o'clock yesterday morning. Several times during the night breathing almost ceased but he rallied again and again. He passed away calmly without a struggle. Mr. Gad H. Lee nominated Rufus W. Peekh im. of Albany. At the conclusion of Mr. Blaine's remarks, Gen. Logan was Introduced. He thanked the people of Maine, and Bangor in particular, for the hearty welcome he had roceived, and congratulated the people of Maine upon the nomination of one of her sons as the standard bearer of the Republican party. His nomination at Chicago was the legitimate outgrowth of the popular will. By a vast majority of the delegates to that convention it was decided that the time had come when America and Americans should be placed in a more favorable light before the nations 9f the earth. Ilia people of this country, under our form of government, have claimed the right to express their views and make their choice of the man who shall hold the highest office in the country. Mr. Dwight L. Moody, the American evangelist, followed Mr. Spurgeon. After a few words of congratulation to the pastor and the people of the Tabernacle, Mr. Moody said he dteired to heartily and thankfully testify faD j inspiration he had obtained from the preachings of Mr. Spurgeon and from a contemplation of the example afforded by his life work. Mr. Grady strongly and eloquently deprecated the admission of partisan feeling into tha question. Cadiz, Ohio, gave thn eloquent Bishop Simpson to the world, June 31, 1811. At 21 be graduated at Allegany college, Meadville, Pa. A oourae of medical studies was then pursued for about a year, and in 1833 he started in business as a physician. Boon, however, he abandoned medicine to enter the pulpit, and the same year obtaipod license to preach in Methodist churclioe, and since then few preachers have accomplished as much good through their eloqurnca as Bishop Simpson has. It is somewhat remarkable that he achieved such success as a preacher, when it is known that in early youth he was agarae. to speaking in public, and a knowledge of this (act ouglit to make conspicuous the valt#of hard work as one of the chief lessons of his career. His mastery of English speech and his attainments as a scholar were the products of laborious application under the stimulus ol on inextinguishably teal in tho causa to which he devoted his life wbu in 1828, at the ago of 18 years, he was received into the Methodist church. After his graduation, his first pastoral work was in the* Pittsburg conference, whore he was soon recognized as a young man of unusual abilitv and zeal. He was professor of natural science in Allegheny college from 1837 to 1839, president of the Indiana Asbury University from 1839 to 1848, and editor of The Western Christian Advocate from 1848 to 1853, the latter year being the date of his ordination as a bishop, in Boston. For thirty-two years ho has performed the work of the bishopric with distinguished efficiency, and his life of seventythree years has been one of the most useful of his time. Mr. D. Cady Herrick withdrew the nomination of Judge Peckham. Mr. Lee, of Poughkeepsie, withdrew the name of Judge Barnard. The motion to nominate Judges Andrews and Rapallo was then carried, amid gkeat enthusiasm. Bangor, Mr, June 19.—The Democratic fourth district convention in this city nominated John P. Lynch, Machias, for congress, Joseph F. Snow, of Bangar, presidential elector, A. J. Chase, of Sebec, and John P. Donworth, of delegates to Chicago, and Calvin Chamberlin, of Foxcroft, and Jefferson Swett, of Eastport, alternates. The name of Cleveland v/as loudly cheered. The delegates are for him. All for Cleveland. Brief addresses were also made by Mr. Pentecost and other evangelists, and the utmost enthusiasm was manifested by the vast congregation. has undoubtedly a devoted following, the large vote vhich was supposed to be sure for Hiiyi has rapidly fallen off. The strongest contributing cauec to this remit was the sodden pacification of the Tammany malcontents, by being conceded more than their demands. The list of presidential electors recommended by the committee was then read It was headed by Oswald Ottendorfer and William Purcell, whose names were received with cheers. The list is as follows: Robbed on a West Shore Train. For Elector?-a t Large—Oswald Ottendorfer, of New York; William Purcell, of Monroe.Syracuse, June 19.—Dr. Albert Mayermoss, of Minneapolis, Minn., left the Aster house in New York, for home. He had 93,600, and publicly dtvttsd it before leaving the house, putting CUO in his watch pocket, and the remainder in tfc* Inside waietcoat pocket) where he pinned It in. He took the Cortland street ferry for the West Shore train. He saw two men on the] boat, and again in-the can who wore in the hotel when he exposed his money. Upon maring Kingston two man began playing thr»jaard monte. Mayermoss held aloft from the game, but consented to change money for the gamblers. As he did so, seven or eight men gathered ground him. One grabbed his C800; in the scuffle his waistcoat was oat open and the 13,200 extracted therefrom. An alarm was raised, but the men left the train at Kingston. Mayermoss was told that there was no police there, and in his excitement be came on here and related his' story to the police with tears in his eyes. Chief Wright advised him to go back to New York and lay his case before Inspector Byrnes. He left on the 9:80 train on the Central road for New York. Mayermoes has a good mind picture of the men. "The action of the convention was but the voice of' the people announcing in unmistakable terms that your honored citizen was their choioe for tho position. The people know who they want and what they want, and if I was to describe the man it would be something in the way. They want a man at the head of the nation who is ahle to perform the duties of that position; they want a man who has examined into and has knowl - edge of the form of government; who understands the interests of this great people, and who will use all means for their protection; a man who jinderstands the wants of the laborers of the country and will use his influence to protect them; they want a man to practice commercial interests; they want a man who understands the present relationship of this country with Mexico and the South Amerioon states, and the capacities of thoee countries and rich valleys of tlie Congo, and also will endeavor to increuM our business with Other localities; they want a man who will nutke the country honored at home and respected abroad; tliey « ant r. man who will in a peaceful way ra ke the citizens of the United States to lie "p -otectod at home and abroad, they want a man who understands the provisions of the con ;iitutions and laws that have beeu enacte 1 under the aame—a man who will not only tfitey that instrument but will enforce tho laws enacted for the protection of American people.
