HOUSE—opened with prayer by the Rev. Father O’Brien. ~ Petitions referred—Petitions of Ebenezer- IIill, ct al. in aid of petition for the incorpo- ration of the Gregory Point Marine Railway; Charles Olmstead of Norwalk, and 500 oth- ers, in aid of petition of George G. Bishop, et al. for a railroad. The following came from the Senate refer- red. and the House concurred: Miles Bradley, ct al. for the incorporation of the Saugatuck Railroad; Fitch’s Home for Soldiers, for the extension of State aid; Cur- tis Finch, for an act to hasten the trials in courts. A resolution to recall a resolution permit- ting the New York and New Haven Railroad Company-to increase their stock, came from the Senate rejected, the House having passed it. Mr. Minor moved at the House vote to insist and ask fora c mittce of conference. Mr. Eaton moved indefinitely postpone. He did so that the House might, if they chose, vote against the resolution and to con- cur. Hc had no interest in the matter, but he saw no reason why the New York road should not have their wishes granted. Discussed at great length. Mr. Phelps, of New I aven, was at loss to account for the strong opposition to the re- hearing of this case. Some of the public were dissatisfied and wanted the mattcrrc- opened, but here was a strong opposition. .Ilc belivcd the movement was an entering wedge to a grand plot to establish a great in- telcst in the State that would make the peo- ple pay them large dividends. No road in the country asked for such a capital as the New York road. It had $1,000,000 capital far every six miles of road. He thought there was something deeper in the matter than appeared on the surface. Mr. Reid, of Suifield, thoilght the matter was resolved into one point, which was that if the company wished to be fair about the matter, why make so strenuous an opposition to the return of the bill. Some of the mem- bers from the country had got mixed up amid the fine periods of the city members, and he wished to have them come down to the naked facts, so that they might understand it. The motion to indefinitely postpone the resolution was lost by a large vote. The motion to insist and ask fora commit- tee of conference was then passed, and Messrs. Minor, of Stamford, and Phelps, of New Haven, were appointed the committee of conference. _ A bill for an act relating to public shools, changing the scho )1 year, was referred. A bill for an act repealing an act passed in 1867, relating to highways and bridges, was referred. FRIDAY, May .22. SENATE—Prayer by Rev. Mr. Start.

Resolution appointing a, committee of con- ference on the part. of the Senate to meet the committee already appointed by the House to confer concerning a resolution increasing the capital stock of the N. Y. & N. H. R. R. Co. Mr. Street moved to appoint. Mr. Aus- tin seconded. Mr. Gallagher oqucted ; he did not wish to be captions, but he wanted to know a reason. Mr. Austin said the an- nual meeting of the road had now. been ' held; now he was in favor of reohearing. Mr. Street said the vote Of the railroad Co. yesterday was apacked one; any opposition to the resolution at the stockholders’ meet- ing would have been futile, as everything had been arranged beforehand ; that any stockholder who should attempt to be heard would have been in the same condition of a stockholder in one of the Hartford banks, some years since, who, being belated, in- quired of the-inspector if he was too late, when the inspector replied that “Mr. Brown had voted and his vote would make no dif— ference.” . Mr. ,Austin offered a new resolu- tion for reading. The pending resolution \vaslaid on the table. The new resolution was a. substitute for the original resolution for the increase of capital stock ; it set forth that not one cent of the $3,000,000 should be used for any other purpose than the re-lay- ing of the road with steel rails, the purchase of necessary land and rolling stock, the erec- tion of buildings, etc. and that the new stock should be apportioned pro rata among'the stockholders, they to be given sufficient time to purchase.

FOR VICE-PRESIDENT, Schuyler Colfax, Of Indiana. CHICAGO, May 21st, 1868. EAR GAzu’r’rE—Yesterday and 10-day have proved days ofbencdiction and prophe- cy, for the cause and the comm-y. Especially also, have they been days of pride and glori- fication to every Connecticut man here. To Gen. Joseph R. Hawlcy, the patriotic sol~ dier and Ex-G 0v. of Conn, as President of our Convention, is the nation indebted not only for the speedy completion of business and adjournment, but for the good order and good nature which has characterized one of the sublixnest delnonstrationsof popu- lar enthusiasm and national gratitude this continent has ever witnessed. With a dig- nity of demeanor that. commanded respect froul all, and a voice of thunder that could be distinctly heard iii any part Of the vast amphitheatre, when he demanded “ORDER” from the flowing, turbulent sea of - impetu- ous voices, there was such a decisive tone of “command,” that quiet was at once restored. It reminded one of the days when, amid hail of lead and schrapnell, far above the din of battle his voice was heard “romvann TIIE' sisvnNTII I” And as he is to-night, after the adjournment, complimented 011 all sides by everybody for his masterly handling of the Convention, Connecticut men feel that they too, with State pride, shpre in his well-carn- ed and deservedly acquired national reputa- tion. His friends, after a severe though honorable contest in committee, between himself and Gen. Sickles, were fortunate enough to secure the position for him of Permanent President of the Convention: and it is not too much to say that at this hour there is no man beyond our candidates, l0 universally recognized as a national f2 - vorite. All hail to “J 00 Hawley.” . It became very earl . apparent that our Governor Buckingham could more readily unite all the New England and Middle States than any name under canvass, but he had addressed us a letter positively declining any use of his name. He was repeatedly telegraphed as the prospects of success grew more hopeful, urging him to allow the bring- ing forward- of his name, but he tenaciously adhered to his first determination. While no one. will desire to change the result, yet it is very generally conceded that the Vice Presidency was at one timc,within the grasp of Connecticut. Rough and bluff and brave old Ben.Wadc, as you will see by the telegraph, led the van. But the abandonment of him by 4 then 5 and last 6 of the Ohio delegation, in violation of instructions and all State pride and decen- cy, made it clearly apparent that he must come short Of the goal, while the steadily advancing line of Colfax, as clearly indica- ted his ultimate triumph. The deadly breech made by the reversal of Pennsylva- nia’s vote, carried the crst barefooted and fatherless newsboy of New York, who used to wash his mother’s dishes when she was ill, swept the Convention with a wild and mighty wave of outbursting joy and enthu- siasm. Cheer upon cheer, swinging of hats, streaming of handkerchiefs, and in every possible way did the mighty mass swell the power and volume of the demonstration. Even the nomination of the great soldier and leader, and the dramatic effects of un- veiling his life-sized portrait,seated on a ped- estal at the eastern portico of the White House, by the goddess of Liberty, with the unloosing and flying over the Convention of a carrier pigeon in national colors—produce an equal outburst of approving enthusiasm. The great state of New York presented the name of her great son, and nobly stood by him with majestic dignity to the end, casting her solid and imperial 66 votes for Reuben E. Fenton, but graciously, at the last, moved the nomination of Colfax be unanimous. The organization of 'the Connecticut Dele- gation was perfected as follows :— Chairman—B. Bent, Jr. Vice President—Gen. IV. S. Pierson. Secretary—Horace Smith. ‘ Com. to wait on Candidates and announce. nominations—Charles Parker. National Committee—H. H. Starkwcather. So, now, the Republican bark is launched under mOst assuring auspices, and it now re- mains for the honest: patriotic millions of America to consumate the work so glorious- ly begun, by a crowning, and as’ we believe it will be, an overwhelming VICTORY IN No- vmrnnn! ' B. National Union Republican Con- volition. ‘ . CHICAGO, May 21. ‘ The National Union Republican Conven- tion has assembled, and adjourned, after having transacted the business for which it was convened, to the great satisfaction of the delegates, the people who witnessed its. proceedings, and undoubtedly to the accept- ence of the great masses of the Republican party throughout the land. The Convention was a grand one in every respect and one of which all Americans may well feel proud. The temper of the Convention throughout was simply splendid. Perfect good nature and wonderful unanimity of sentiment pre-' vailed at all time; there was literally no personalities or ill nature shown in debate, no clashings of sectional interests, and noth- ing whatever to mar the harmony of the Convention. Of course in the sharp contest for the Vice Presidency, a dozen candidates were brought forward and urged by the dif- ferent delegations with all their ability and great earnestness, but the candidates nomin- ated were men of unexccptionablc character and in the discussion of their merits the dele- gates, in no instance, sought to build up one man by decrying another, and when it be— came evident that Mr. Colfax was the choice of the majority, each delegation made haste to record their votes for him, and his nomi- nation was made unanimous amidst the most intense and prolonged enthusiasm. The doors of the Opera House were thrown open about 11 o’clock, Wednesday A. M. and all fortunate holders of tickets were admitted The police arrangements were excellent, and but little confusion ensued. The body of the House was occupied by the delegates, seats for each state having been assigned, cOm- mcncing nearest the stage with Maine, thus giving the delegates from Conn. a row ofthc best seats in the House, reporters, editors, Committee men, &c., accupied the large space on the Stage in rear of the chairman; alternates and spectators the galleries, or wherever they could find seats or standing room. A few ladies occupied seats in the 'boxes of the Family Circle. At 12 1-2 the Convention was called ' to order by Gov. Ward, of New Jersey, chair- 'man of the National Committee, in a brief speech, which was received with great en- thusiasm. He closed by calling upon Bish- cp Simpson to offer Prayer, which he (lid in his usually impressive manner. General Carl Schurz, of Missouri was unanimously elected temporary chairman, and amidst long continued applause he was escorted to the platform, and made a telling speech. He was very frequently interrupt- ed by loud applause from the entire assem- b lagc, and his most earnest and radical enun- ciations were the ones which were received with the greatest applause. The Com. on Credentials, consisting of one, from each State was appointed, of which Mr. W. G. Coe, of Winsted, was the member for Conn. The Com. on Permanent organization was next appointed, on which com. Mr. Bying- ton represented Conn, with what ability and credit to the State may be judged by the "nominations made by that Com. The Com. on Resolutions was then ap- pointed, Mr. J. M. Woodward, of the New Haven Courier, alternate of ' S. W. Kel- logg, of Waterbury,represcnting 0111:. This Com. held their meetings in the room of the Conn. Delegation at the Sherman House. A Com. on Rules was appointed—Mr. S. L. Sayles, of Killing, for Conn. The Con- vention then adjourned till 5 o’clock to give the committees time for their duties. AFTERNOON SESSION. Convention called to order at.5 o’clock. Thc.com. on Permanent Organization not being ready to report, a series of resolutions from the Union League were read, and a gen- eral talk indulged in for a short time, when the com. appeared and reported the name of Gen. JOSEPH R. HAWLEY, of Connecticut, for permanent President. The announce- ment was received with wild applause, and he was unanimously elected, and escorted to the chair and amid :thc greatest applause, and cheers, by ex-Govs. Solomon, of Wis- consin and Brown of Georgia. The Gov. was formally introduced to the convention by Gen. Schurz, and on taking the chair made a very able and forcible speech. The Gov. was continually interrupted by the most enthusiastic applause. His allu- sion to the payment of the National debt, especially, was received with round after romd of applause. Gen. W. H. Pierson, of Windsor, was elected Vice President, from Conn, and Bartlet Bent, ofMiddletown, Sec- rotary. An effort was here made by an impatient member to nominate Gen. Grant by accla- nlation, but while the name of Grant was re- ceived with the wildest enthusiasm, it was decided to postpone his nomination until af- ter the adoption of the Resolutions,‘ and while waiting for the Report of the com., on credentials the com. (Tom the Soldiers and Sailors Convention was received, and their. resolution asking for the nomination of Grant was read, when more trouble was had to curb the impatient members anxious for im- mediate nomination by acclamation. The balance of the afternoon was'devoted to speech making, no business being before the house, and the audience was very enthusias- tic. Gen. Brown, of Georgia was called for, and made to take the stage. He was cheered and applauded constantly and in the wild- est manncr. I had met him at the dinner table that day, and heard him express him-g self confidentially to some of his fellow del- egates his pleasure at the action of the Con- vention in admitting thcdclegatcs from the reconstructed States, and his gratitude for the good feeling thus manifested towards thcm,and was somewhat prepared for the tone of his speech. I have met him several times since and he ’seems well pleased with the doings of the convention. He called at the Com. Room to-night, and was introduc- ed to quite a number of Conn. people. And, by the way, another honored visitor graced the Com. Room to-night—no less a person- age than the Rev. Petroleum V. Nasby, Post- master. &c., who was most cordially wel- comed. The Second Day. A large number of tickets had been issued for Thursday, and long before the opening of the Convention all the standing room was occupied by impatient men—pushing and crowding, all trying to obtain seats or to se- cure a position where they could get an un- interrupted View of the stage. Soon after 10 o'clock, partial quiet was obtained and the Convention was called to order. Rev. J. P. Gulliver, formerly of Norwich, Conn., offer- ed prayer. The Committec on Resolutions not being ready to report considerable time was occupied in speech making, during which time the committee marched into the Hall, and the chairman reported the follow- ing - PLATFORM. The National Republican party of the United States, assembled in National Con- vention in the city of Chicago, on the 20th day of May, 1868, make the following declar- ation of principles :— FmST—Wc congratulate the country on the assured success of the reconstruction pol- icy of Congress? evinced by the adoption in the majority o the states lately in rebel- lion of constitutionssecuring equal civil and political rights to all, and it is the duty of the government to sustain those institutions and to prevent the pcople‘of such states from‘bc- ing remitted to a state of anarchy. SECOND—The guarantee by Congress of equal suffrage to all loyal men at the south, was demanded by every consideration of public safety, of gratitude and of justice, and must be maintained, while the question of suffrage in all the loyal states properly be- longs to the people ofthose states. THIRD—We denounce all forms of repu- diation as a national crime , (prolonged cheers) and the national honor requires the payment Of the public indebtedness in the utmost good faith to all creditors, at home, and abroad, not onl according to the letter but the spirit of the aw under which it was contracted. FOURTH—It is due to the labor of the 118.- tion that taxation should be equalized and reduced as rapidly as the national faith will permit. FIFTH—Tile national debt contracted as it has been for the preservation of the Union for all time to come, should be extended over a fair period for redemption : and it is the duty of Congress to reduce the rate of in- tercst thereon whenever it can be honestly done. SIXTH—That the best policy to diminish our burden of debt is to so improve our credit that capitalists will seek to loan us money at lower rates of interest than we now pay, and must continue to pay so long as repudiation, partial or total, open or covert, is threatened or suspected. SEVENTH—The government of the United States should be administered with the strict- est economy, and the corruptions which have been so shamefully nursed and foster- ed by Andrew Johnson call loudly for re- form. EIGHTH—We professedly‘dcplore the un- timely and tragic deathbf Abraham Lin- coln, and regret the succession of Andrew Johnson to the presidenc , who has acted treacherously to the peop e who elected him and the cause the was pledged to support; who has usurped high legislative and judicial functions, who has refused to execute the laws, who has used his high office to induce other officers to ignore and violate the laws, who has employed his executive powers to render insecure the property, the peace, lib- erty and life of citizens, who has abused the pardoning power, who has denounced the national legislature as unconstitutionaldwho has persistently and corruptedly resisted by every measure in his. power every proper attempt at the reconstruction of states late- ly in rebellion, who has perverted the pub- lic patronage into an engine of wholesale corruption, and who has been justly im- peached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and pronounced guilty by the vote of thirty- five senators. NINTH—The doctrine of Great Britain and other European powers, that because a man is once a subject he is alwa s so, lnust be re- sistcd at every hazard by t c Uniicd States as a relic of the feudal tunes, not authorized by the law of nations, and at war with our national honor and independence. Natur‘ alizcd citizens are entitled to be protected in all their rights of citizenship as though they were native born, and no citizen of the Um- tcd- States, native or naturalized, must be» liable to arrest and imprisonment by any foreign power for acts done or words spoken in this country ; if so arrested and imprison- ed, it is the duty of the government to inter- fere in his behalf. TENTH—0f all who were faithful in the trials of the late war, there were none enti- tled to more especial honor than the brave soldiers and seamen who endured the hard- ships of campaign and cruise,and imperillcd their lives in the service of their country. The bountics and pensions provided by the law for these brave defenders of the nation are obligations never to be forgotten. The widows and Orphans of the gallant dead are the wards of the people, a sacred legacy be- queathed to the nation’s protecting care. ELEVENTH—Foreign emigration, which in the pasthas added so lunch to the wealth, development and resources and increase of power to this nation, the as lum of the op- pressed ot all nations, shop d be fostered and encouraged by a liberal and just policy. TWELFTII—This convention declares itself in sympathy with all the oppressed people who are struggling for their rlghts. Each Resolution was received with ap- plause, and several with cheers and long confinued applause, and it, was evident that the Platform as reported gave universal delight and satisfaction, and it was adopted without debate, with entire unanimity and great enthusiasm. Carl Shurz moved two amendments which were adopted, and the platform declared complete. GRANT NOMINATED. . Soon as the platform was adopted Gcn, French, of North Carolina, moved to‘ pro- ceed to nominate a candidate for the Presi- dency, and then commenced again great ap- plause, which continually broke out throu h- out the proceedings. Gen. Logan, of li- nois, very deliberately in a clear ringing voice, amidst profound silence, addressed the chair as follows: “In the name of the loyal citizens, soldiers and sailors of this great re- public of the United States of America; in the name of loyalty, of liberty, of humanity and of justice; in the name of the National Union Republican party, I nominate, as the candidate for the Chief Magistracy of this nation, ULvssEs S. GRANT." [Here there was a storm of applause. The mass of ‘ the people rose to their feet, and in all the hall there was the waving of hats and kerchiefs. Alady in the gallery of the house, at this point of time, let loose a tri-colorcd pigeon, which flew through the room to the stage. Three lusty cheers were given, upon motion of a delegate, for General Grant, and the band played “Hail to the Chief.”] Soon as quietness could be restoredta mo- tion was made to nominptc by acclamation, which was cried down, the rules providing for a call of States. The Secretary called the roll, and as the name of each State was called, the chairman of the delegation rose in his seat, and generally in a few short, pithy sentences announced the vote of his State, and as each vote was given the ap-- plausc was great. ' . The names were called alphabetically, and when Alabama was called that State gave all her votes to Grant, and every state and ‘ territory followed suit,over_2/ cote, 644 in num- ber being given for the great Captain of the age. The announcement of the result by the chair was received with the wildest enthusi- asm, all the people rose to their feet, and the applause and cheers were prolonged, amidst which the curtain of flags at the rear of the stage was removed revealing a splendid painting ofGrant, sitting on a pedestal on the steps of the White House, with the Goddess of Liberty at his side, pointing to him with pride and saying to the democratic conven- tion “Match Him.” The Band played, and the immense audience sang “Rally Round the Flag,” and other-patriotic songs. Tun VICE-PunsmnNov. A long time ensued before quiet could be obtained, when nominations were made for the Vice Presidency in ten minute speeches, seconded by five minute speeches. Virginia nominated Henry Wilson, of Mass. ; Colfax by Indiana; Ben. Wade by Ohio; Fenton by New York; Jas. Speed by Kentucky; John A. Creswell by Maryland ; Curtin by Penn. ; Harlan by Iowa ; Hamlin, of Maine by Wisconsin; S. C. Pomeroy by Kansas ; South Carolina in a strong, earnest speech seconded nomination of Wilson ofMass. and voted for him strong. The names of almost ‘all the candidates were received with loud cheers, but the cheers for Colfax from all parts of the house were perfectly wild, while the names ofWil- son, Fenton, Ben Wade, were received with great enthusiasm. ' , After 3rd ballot Gov. Curtin was with- drawn. On the Fifth ballot Penn. gave 30 for Colfax, when everything broke, and the audience broke in with the wildest applause and immediately every State hastened in the greatest confusion to record their votes en- tire for Colfax, with only one or two excep- tions; The vote was read, Colfax 522, Fen.- ton 75, Wade 42, Wilson 11, and Colfax de- clared nominated, when Gen. Sickles rose amid cheers and after order was restored, moved to make the nomination unanimous, which was done, and the applause was tre- mendohs. The officers of the Convention were appointed to wait upon the candidates to inform them of their nomination, &c., and Gov. Hawley leaves to-day for that purpose. The National Executive Com. was. ap-. pointed, thanks to the ofiicers passed, &c., and the Convention adjourned at half-past 5 o’clock, having been in session over seven hours. It is but justice to Gen. Hawley to say that he made a splendid presiding officer; his voice could be heard distinctly in all parts of the assembly; he was very prompt, quick in decision, and to his able management is due in a great measure the promptness of the. nomination for Vice President. It was not thought possible to complete the business yesterday, but be pushed business rapidly and sueceded. He was universally liked, and is highly complimented on all sides. Last evening the city was given over to jollifications. Ben-fires illumined the streets, cannon roared, bands played everywhere, meetings were held in several places, and en- thusiasm and delight with the nominations were everywhere expressed, and the ticket universally pronounced the strongest that could have been made. Among the people here, now, or formerly, from Connecticut, in' addition to the dele- gates, arc Hon. Marshall Jewell of Hartford, whose pleasant face. attracts the attention of all, and whose ever cheerful good nature wins friends for him wherever he goes; Henry Smith, 2nd, of Ridgefield, to whom your correspondent is indebted for special favors; Oliver Hoyt, of Stamford, who is here with his brother, Rev. W. C. Hoyt; Capt. Tucker, of Watcrburry, who is drivinga sharp busi- ness in Grant medals, of which he has a great variety, and is “ pushing” with true Yankee energy; John Tweedy, of Danbury; Rev. R. K. Diossy, of New Orleans, formerly of Norwalk, and Rev. L. P. Perry, of Rye, both in attendance on the Methodist Conven- tion, which will not adjourned until June. Among the ladies were Mrs. and Miss Coe, of Winsted,Mrs. A. H. Byington and Miss Annie Hill, ofNorwalk. The room of the delega- tion is constantly visited by natives of Conn. now living in this city, or in attendance 0 the Convention, and we are continually meeting familiar faces. Gen. J. B. Rogers, father-in-law of Wm. R. Smith, of Norwalk, is here with the Ten- nessee delegation, and I was most happy to meet him. The General was an outspoken, earnest union man through the war, who suffered severely in the loss of property and had t9 flee the State for his life. He is now a member of the Tennessee Senate, and .a very prominent candidate for Congress, and I sincerely hope that he may obtain agent in that body, for certainly that State could not send a better representative. Most of our Connecticut people have gone home, but a party of about fourteen, includ- ing your correspondent, start this, Friday, p. m. for a trip on the Union Pacific Rail- road, m‘a the Chicago and North Western. .

It is of rare occurrence to find so fine an as- sortment of confections outside of our large cities, and our people appear willing to sup- port a first-class one here in their midst. The liberal proprietors, determined to keep up with the age in everything, have just put in one of Seaman’s Patent Ice Cream Freezers, with which they are enabled to freeze 40 quarts in 40 minutes.

This is one of the foremost and most successful institutions of the kind in the land, and as life insurance has become to be considered an almost indispensiblc pro- vision, and its safety and profitableness as an investment so well established, the claims of a company ’of this character should be well considered.

Speaker Colfax visited Gen. Grant before the result of the vote at Chicago was known. The Speaker was smoking a fine cigar. “Where did you get that cigar, Colfax,” said Grant. “ I get my cigars of a man in Dan- bury, Conn.; he makes them himself,” an- swered Colfax. “Well, that is one of the bestgigarsI have seen in some time,” said Grant, “I will order some.” Thereupon the Gen. sat, down and wrote to the Danbury man to send him one thousand Colfax cigars.

WAmong the many restoratives which nature has supplied to relieve the afilictions of humanity, there is no more favorite one for a certain class of diseases than the “medicinal gum” of the Wild Cherry Tree; but however valuable it 15, its power to heal,to soothe to relieve and to cure, is enhanced ten fold by scien- tific and judicious combination with other ingredients in themselves of equal worth. This happy mingling exists to a remarkable degree in Dr. Wlslar’s Belgium orwua Cherry, whose value in curing Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis, Whooping Cough, Croup, Asthma, Pulmonary Affec- tion, and Incipient Consumption is inestimablc. Strong testimony. From anJAMIN Wnnnnnu Esc., Depot Master at South Royalston, Mass. .“In the 5 ring of 1858 I was most severely afilictcd wrth altar , dry coughnvith its usual accompaniments of night sweats, completely prostrating my nervous system, and producing such a debilitated state of health that after trying medical aid to no purpose, I had given up all hopes of ever recovering, as had also my iricuds. At this stage of matters I was prevailed upon through the influence of a neighbor to try Wis- tar’s Balsam of Will Cherry, and before using two but- tles, the cfi‘cct was almost magical. My cough entire- 1v left me, the night sweats deserted me. hope once more elated my depressed spirits, and soon I had at? tained my wontcd strength and vigor. Thus has this Balsam, as has often been remarked by persons con- versant with the above facts, literally snatched Inc from the yawning grave.
