Three months later he resigned his position at home to accept the Professorship of Mathematics in Uuion Christian College, the institution from which he had graduated only six months before. He was next called to superintend the public schools of Ilagers town, Wayne County. lie labored here for two years with good success, when he relinquished the profession of teaching, in which ho had advanced so rapidly, to pursue his chosen profession—law. In March, 1870, he re entered the ollloe of I. N. Pierce, where he remained until the following October, when he entered the Central Law School of Indianapolis. Having entered the .senior class, he graduated last April, with the highest honors of his class. His valedictory, published in full in the Indianapolis papers, was a production of decided merit. At once, after graduation, he commenced the practice of law with Col. Thos. H. Nelson. He has a literary turn mind, and delights in debate and public speaking. While teaching he delivered numerous addresses and lectures.

Houses and barns were wrecked, and trees two and three feet thick, that stood in the center of its track, were twisted into splinters. In some places the ground was plowed up in ditches several feet wide, afoot deep and fifty to a hundred yards long. Three miles from Somerville Gibson County, James 3IcGregor was killed and his wife and eight children all badly injured by the wrecks of his house "and barn.

The Majbliiiie Rppaiti£--Hoar Chairman, 1

LOGAN AND GEN. KTLPATRIGK MAKE SPEECHES FOR THE VETERANS.

GRANT MEX SANGUINE.

Special Editorial Telegram. CHICAGO, June 2. The situation up to 12 o'clock to day, was not much changed from yesterday It is now generally understood that Hoar is to be temporary chairman. This was fleeted by argument of the Grant and anti Grant men.

At 11:30 o'clock the delegation filed into the Exposition which is very beautifully decorated.

The press is very much dissatisfied with the-arrangements as there were no press tickets issued until 11 o'clock to-day. The Daily NEWS was fortunate and is well seated.

The Blaine men make a great deal of noise, but there will be considerable strength from the Sherman element which will go to Grant. Conkling,. Cameron and Logan are confident of Grant's nomination. E. P. BEAUCIIAMP.

TIIE VERT LATEST.

The convention was called to order at 1:10 p. in. this afternoon by Don Cameron Dr. Kiltredge, of the tlnrd Presbyterian church, opened with pr^er. This is first blood for Grant, as Dr. Kiltredge is a Grant mau, and has been entirely ignored by the Tribune.

After prayer, Cameron ordered Secretary' Thomas Keigh to read the call of the National Convention after this was done Cameron addressed the Convention and asked the delegates to. nominate the strongest man the strongest within themselves a man who commanded the respect of the whole world (cheers).

His speech was received with un bounded enthusiasm. Geo. F. Hoar was then unanimously elected temporary chairman, and was loudly applauded when lie made his ap pearance.

The chair then appointed -as secretary Frey, of 3Iaine, Round of Illinois and Davis of Texas.

Mr. Hoar then said: "Gentlemen of the Convention accept my sincere thanks," and proceded to read his speech saying: "the function of this Convention is to nominate one of the two men who will be electcd President, and referred to twenty years having elapsed since the immortal Lincoln was nominated.

He thpi proceeded to pay a fitting tribute to the memory of Lincoln, which was received with such enthusiasm as cannot be described.

He referred to the result of the war, showing the weakness of both army and navy: arraigned the Democracy, showing the outrages in Louisiana, Alabama, tho bulldozing by rifle clubs the fraudulent votes of New York: the Maine public larceny, and wound up his address with a eulogy upon tlie Republican party and a tribute to Grant and Sherman.

After some little delay, Eugene Hale offered a resolution making permanent organizations, credentials and rules, the order of business resolution was adopted.

New Hampshire delegation reported the name of Wm. Chandler on credentials. (Applause.)

Ohio, committe on rules and organization, J. R. Garfield. (Applause.) Pennsylvania, committee on credentials, John Cessna. [Applause.]

Some one asked why Utah should not be called.. The Chair ordered it called.

Conkling made objection but the chair said that the roll as,made by the National committee should be followed but that by a motion Utah could be added. Here quite a tilt took place between Conkling and Hale.

Logan then offered

a

resolution that

the chairman on tickets be requested to furnish 500 tickets each day to the veterans, war-worn and patriotic soldiers.

Gen. Kilpatrick followed Logan. The motion was carried unanimously with the exception of one "no."
