Henderson of Missouri Per manent Chairman. Ali Candidates Still Confi dent. Chicago, June 4th The temporary chairman as soon as elected attracted great attention. Mr. Lynch is a slender man of aver age night, with narrow shoulders, long head, and high forehead. Besides be ing an easy, graceful and terse speaker, he is a man of fine executive ability. intolerant of the slightest disorder, but with all bis decisiveness and persist ency, he is amiable, firm and patient. That Senator Clayton felt his defeat keenly was evident, for as he passed the writer, escorting Lynch to the chair, his face was deathly pale, hi9 hand trembled, and the tremor of his lip was perceptible from behind his heavy moustache. As he returned from the rostrum after the address of Mr. Lynch, he was greeted by scores of friends. Gov. Oglesby and ex Gov. Beveridge reached over the stage gal lery to shake bands with him, and even Norman Williams patted him on the back and told him to be of good cheer. FROM THE IT. S. SEKATE.

It was something after 11 o'clock when the convention was called to or der. A prayer was offered by Rev. Dr. John II. Barnes, of the First Presbyte rian church, in the course of which he spoke of the vast moral and political changes which the nation had under gone, as indicated by the presence ot him who now so worthily presided over the convention, and he aked a blessing on iho race and the common wealth and the cause, which that gentleman repre sented. He prayed that when the con vention had dissolved it would have presented to the suffrages of the na tion for the highest office in the peo ple's gift a candidate who, in personal character, in devotion to duty, in loy alty to American institutions, in cour age and experience and wisdom should woithily eucceed to THE CHAIR OF WASHINGTON, and thus help the nation to become not only more prosperous and just and peaceful, but also to be an inspiration and a blessing to the struggling people of mankind. Gen. Geo. & "Williams, of Indiana, chairman of the committee on perma nent organization, reported that th committee had selected G u. John B. Henderson, of Missouri, for permanent chairman, and would request the secre tary to read the list of vice-presidents and secretaries. Charles W. Clisbee, of Michigan, was selected as principal secretary. The report was agrcpd to. The chair appointed Galusha A. Grow, of Pennsylvania, Geo. F. Hoar, cf Massachusetts, aud George B. Wil liams, of Indiana, a committee to con duct the permanent chairman to the platform. SPEECH OF GEN. HENDERSON. jGen Henderson was received with cheers. On reaching the chair he sptke as follows: Gentlemeu of tiie Convention: We have assembled to survey the past history of the party, to rejoice as we may because of the good it has done, to correct its errors, if errors there be; to discern if possible the wants of the present, and with patriotic firmness provide for the future. Our past his tory is the union preserved, slavery abolished, and its former victims equal ly by our sides in the convention; the public faith maintained, unbounded credit at home and abroad, a currency convertible into coins and the pulse of industry throbbing with renewed health and yigor in every section of a FRCSPEROC and peaceful country. These are the fruits of triumphs over adverse policies gained in the military and civil conflicts of the last twenty four years. Out of these conflictsjhave come a race of heroes and statesmen, challenging confidence and love at home and respect and admiration abroad, aud now, when we come to se lect a standard bearer for the approach ing conflict, our chief embarrassment is not in the want, but in the abund ance of presidential material. New York has her true aud tried statesmen upon whose administration the fierce aud even unfriendly light of public scrutiny has been turned, and the uni versal verdict is, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant." Vermont has her great statesman, whose mind is as clear as the srystal springs of bis na tive state, and whose virtue is as firm as its granite hills. Ohio can come with a name whose history is that of the republican party itself. Illiuois can come with one who never failed in the discharge of a public duty, whcthei in the council chamber or on the field of battle. Maine has her honored favor ite, whose splendid abilities and per sonal qualities have endeared him to the hearts of his friends and the bril liancy of whose genius CIIALLENGKS TIIE ADMIRATION OF ALL. Connecticut and Indiana may come with names scarcely less illustrious than these. And now, In conclusion, if because of personal disagreements or the emergencies of the occasion, anoth er name is sought, there yet remains THAT GRAND OLD HERO of Kenesaw Mountain and Atlauia. When patriotism calls, he cannot, if he w,ould, be silent, but, grasping that banner to him so dear, which he has al ready borne in triumph, he will march to a civic victory no less renowned then those of war. I thank you gen tlemen, for this distinguished mark of your confidence The allusious to Arthur, Shermau, Edmunds and Logan were heartily ap plauded, but when Blaine was alluded to as a man whose splendid abilities and personal qualities had endeared him to the hearts of his friends, and whose brilliancy challenged the admi ration of mankind A STORM OK APPLAUSE broke out, and on the stage, floor and galleries, men stood up and, waving their hats and handkerchiefs, cheered again and again. The women also took part in the demonstration, and waved their fans and handkerchiefs. After the first storm of 4 applause had worn itself out, it was again renewed, and once again, and was intepse, and the enthusiasm was as marked and in tense as that which characterized that of 1880, at the time of Garfield's nomi nation. It was five minutes before the chairman was able to resume and finish his speech. Mr. Stebbins, of Arizona, presenieu a resolution to the effect that the ap pointments of territorial officers by the president of the United States should be from actual residents of such terntery, Referred to the committee on resolu tions. A delegate irom Colorado presented a resolution to the effect that the com missioner of agriculture be made a cab inet officer. Referred to committee on resolutions. Mr. noar. ot Mass , offered a resolu tion, which was referred after being read, as follows: Whereas?, The women of this couu try are citizens, producers, tax payers and are amendable to all the laws of the land, civil and criminal, which they thus far have had no part in making, therefore be it Resolved, That we favor the riebt of women to vote. Adjourned till 7 p. m. COMMITTEE ON CREDENTIALS. Thfi committee on credentials has been in session continuously for twenty four hours, and up to 4 o'clock this afternoon had only disposed of the Seventh Alabama, First Georgia, Fifth Kentucky, Second Illinois, and the Dis trict of Columbia cases, leaving two New York, two Pennsylvania, and the remaining Kentucky cases undetermin ed, and also the Virginia contest. In the Seventh Alabama, R A Moseley and Arthur Bingham, the regulars, were seated over Warner and Hamlin, contestants. The seated delegates are Arthur men. A M Wilson and James Blue were seated in the First Georgia district over Johnson and Green. The men admitted arc Arthur delegates. In the Second Illinois district there was a sharp contest, but Henry Jtuger and Charles Piper, adherents of Logan, were admitted. Two hours were ex pended before a decision was reached in the Fifth Kentucky case and the contest resulted in the seating of E A Wilson and Michael Arnton, Blaine men, as against John Mason Brown and Silas F. Miller. The vote stood 26 to 21. It is believed that the fight in the case will be renewed in the conven tion tonight. POWELL CLAYTON. Gen. Powell Clayton, in an interview today, said: "The assertion has been made in certain newspapers that I had pledged myself and the Arkansas dele gation to Arthur and am now unfairly leaving him. The fact is that I have never spoken or written a word to him on the subject of his candidacy. I wt. f riendlv to him and do yet, and if he had developed sufficient strength in his state and other northern states that give republican majorities, I would have supported him, and I think the Arkansas delegation would have joined in this conclusion, although three of the delegates have from the first been ADVERSE TO HIM. Our state convention was the second one held, Louisiana holding the first. At that time no northern stato had voiced its wiuhep, hence we had no light on the subject of northern preferences aud for that very reason our state con vention gave no indication whatever as to how its delegates should vote, it be Ing generally understood that our un -pledged delegation at Chicr.go should be governed by the result of the con ventions jn the states that gave electo ral votes. Wrheu I ascertained that Arthur had carried only about twelve republican congressional delegations in the nnion and had failed to carry his own state, I reluctantly came to the conclusion that his candidacy was hopeless.
