GENERAL JAMES A. GARFIELD. The man whom the Republican party has nominated as Its candidate for President stands to-day the ablest man In the House of Representative-*, and one of the ablest of American statesmen.

General Gartleld was born in tbe village of Orange, Cuyahoga County. Oblo, a few miles from Clcve and, on tbe l&tb of November, lKjl, tbe youngest of four children, who were orphaned by tbe death of tbeir father within two years after the birth of this last of them. Botb bis parents were of New England extraction. The father, Abraham Garfield, though born in Otaego County, N. Y„ was of a family that bad resiled in Massachusetts for several generations. The mother, Eliza Ballon (niece of Iier. Hosea Bh.Iou. tbe noted Universalis: clergyman) was boro in Cheshire County, St. H. The death of Abraham Garfield in 1KB left tbe widow and her four young ebiidren without fortune in the baokwoods. Hut there WBB a little farm and on this they worked, the youngest by and by coming to be able to bear a sha of the burden. In the winter Mere was a villcge. school with such small store of books a* the neighb rbood afforded for private reading. So tbe winters and the summers passed till tbe family had grown up. and the youngest, when sixteen years of age, had learned a little of the carpenter's tra,ie.

But this did not prove very remunerative. 80 In hi- seventeenth year young Garlleld secured em pi lytnent °n the Ohio Canal, and from driver on thy tow-pnth tose after a time to be a boatman. This irreirular life disagreed with him, aiid the fall of l'HH found him Lack under mother'* roof, slowly recover^ lng from a ihree-moriths' aleye of the fever and ague. Up to this time be would seem to have cher.Bhed little amtdtion for anything beyond the prospects ottered by tbe laborious lilobehad entered. But it happened that the winter scho.d was taught by a promising young man named Samuel Hates. He had attended a high school in an adjacent township, known as the "Geauga Seminary," and with the proselvt'ng spirit comrtion to young men in the backwoods whowere beginning to taste the pl( asures of education, ho was very anxious to take hack several new students with him. Garfield listened and was tempted. He had ititendo I to become sail'jr on the lakes, but he WHS yet too ill to carry out this plan, ami so ho fliiaily resolved to attend the high school one term and postpone sailing till the next fall. That resolution made a scholar, a Major-General, a Con-.TCHSinan, a Senatorelect, and 11 Presidential eand dateout of him, instead of sailor before the inast on a Lake Erie seJn toner.

Tbe boy never dream el of what the man

would

Early in March. 1849, young Garfield reached Cheater (the- site of the tieauga Academy* In company with his cousin and another young rnun from his villas*. They cic-ied with them fry lug-pans and dishes as well as their few school books. They rented a room in an old. u: tinted fintn-i House near the academy and Wi ut to work. Gartleld bought the second Algebra he had evoreeen, and began to study it English Grammar, Natural Philosophy and Arithmetic were the list of his studies, llis mother had scraped together a little sum of money to aid him at the start, which she gave hitn with her blessing when he left his humble home. After that he never had a dollar in his life that he did not earn. As soon as he began to fell at homo In hi* claB*eshe -ought among the carpenters of ti.e village tor employment at his trad. lie worked morning*), evenings and Saturdays, and thu* earned enough to ray his way. Wh"n th-summer vacation ine he had a .'on- -v interval fo-work and 8t hen th ft.L Miiod opened he had enough money laid up to p.ty hl» tuition and give him a si art ut aln.

Hy the end of the fall term Garfield had mnoe sin-h progress that, though a lad of eighteen, bo was able to teach a district school. Th'n the futine seemed eiv-v to him. Tbe fru.ts of the winter's rcn-'hlng wen' enough, with his unnieil inn-mgi'tent to pavtheexiKMisesof thespring and fall terms ut e* academy.

It was so 11 in his own c.ise. With a detlhite pun OS la Tore bun he began to sav*.' all his earnings and to sh ipo all his exertions to the one end. Through the summer vnc tlonor I8WJ h' w»rke«l at his trade, helping to build houses, with.I) a stone's throw id the no idemy. l.'uiiog the next wsion o!'tin-acini in. he was aslo to abandon lami-iiing himself, hav ing found a boarding I O1H0 winee h" tound th" ueee-:jar!es of lite for *l.nt' per we -k.

even with the world. 'lU-Ougti the school year of lbS54« he even began to save a little money. At the same time he commenced tbe study of law. Meantime be had begun to draw attention through wider circle* than tho-e in whlch'he had btwn a cent eras a teachfr, and his oratorical powers had brought him prominently before the public. As President of the ln«titute. it was natural that he should secure a prominent position among educated men. and his iepu at!on irrew very rap liv until. ii it-W. tbe people of his county thought him a proper n:«m to represent them in the State Senate. He was elected by a large majority, aud '00k an influential part*in legislation and debate.

It i-» generally supposed that General Garfield was once si clPtgymaii. This is notstrictIvtrue: ho frequently appc4red in the pulpit of the liisciplesChurch, in accordance with tbe liberal u^airesof that deno ninatlon. but never entertained any idea of liecoming a minister, nor did be ever take holy orders. Fince his entrance into politics as a member of the Legislature he has not performed any ministerial duties, but has turned his attention more to the practice of the law. When the war broke out General Garfield was a leading member of the Ohio State Senate, and was the foremost of a email band of Republicans who thought it impolitic to adopt the Constitutional amendments which had been sent by Congress to tbe States forbidding forever legislation on the subject of slarerr. He took the lead In revising an old *tntwto about treason. ar when what was known as tbe "million war bill" citiue up. he was the most conspicuous of its itdvoc ite«. Troops were being raised In Ohio early In l?8l, and General Gartleld at once not itied Governor Depnison of his desire to enter tbe service. Garfield was sent to

New

York by Governor Denrlson to secure arms fo.-tbe* equipment of the Ohio tro ips, and upon hi* return was offe-ed a Lieutenant-Colo-nelcy in proposed regiment which was never org inl/.cd. In Aumis.. Ihdl, however, after McClellan's West Virginia campaign. General Gartleld was appointed Lieutenant-Colonel of the Fortv-Kecond Ohio Begluiont. for which had been recruited many of his old pupils at the Hiram In*titute. General Garfield went dlllg.-ntlv at work study4ng tootles, and after five weeks of camp life was promoted to the Colonelcy of his regiment and sturted Tor the field.

The resriment went fl-st to Kentucky, whore it reported to General Buell. and Garfield wa-{ at once assigned to tb* eommand of the f-ev-enteenth Brigade and ordered to drive the rebel foVces. under Humphrey Marsh ill. out of Eastern Kentucky. Up to th it date 110 active operations had been attc np ed west of the blue »1 luo Mountain*, and General iartleid found himself' in eunmaud of four regiment* of infantry anrt eight eomVanies of eayalrv. charged «lrh tbe iiniK^rt'Oit work of drivinirout of h1* native state in officer reportt to be the ablest that K"iituckv had given to the rebellion. Gene id Gartl-Id had nevcsTii a litin firt*d in notion, ami had no knowlcdire of in ia r- leo except what had lieen «alncl In a f'-w tn -nths experience. (Jardeld inood rapidly 11,• the valley with a foco numbering only .,\0'to meet an experienced oibcer with 'AKI well-e uipp-d men. but Maishall etrea'od before hitn. and after a slight skirmish Garfield found him*olf In p«isposun of the enemy's ini)'and' agirure He pushed the p.irsul'. and wa rei tore by atfiut 1.000 men.

He reabtned from tbe army under tbe belief that the path of usefulness, to his country lay in the direction of Congress rather than the military service. Mt- sacrificed what seemed to be his pers»oal Satecest, and restgnine his jx)mapIssWi*! he entered the Tblrty-ebtbth Coafres^ Before takinghts se«rbe wta pn-Knosed to be Major General of volunteer*.

IsCQBBttt General Garfield at once to^t high rsA. He ttaOe mesber of tbe Committee oa ALilitarr ASTairs. where b. his

Kctiiur, jnausrry, ana ramiuarny witn tne army, he did signal service, as in the field. He soon became known as a poweiful speaker, remarkably ready, and always effective, in debate. He was renominated by acclamation by the convention of the party in nis strict, for tne Tairty-ninth Congress, and was re-elected by a majority of over twelve thousand. So highly was he now ranked In the House that he w»s given a pLtoe on ft *y* and Means. He studied the whole range of financial questions with the assiduity ot his old coLege dayo, and was spokcu of by the re^retary of the Treasury as one of the best-informed men on such topics then in public lift. During bis Congressional career some of his most notable speeches were made upon the favoring of the Constitutional amendment prohibiting slavery anywhere within the limits of the I nited States, 0:1 recoustructi »u and treatment ut the negroes, ar.d later upon financial topics. In 1W® he was renominated by acclamation, and was elected in the fall election by large majority. Thiough the contests of the Fortieth Congress with the President be was firmly ou the radical side. His health was seriously impaired by his laboiious dl-charg.* of public duties, and at the close of the summer se*sio bj* tbe advice of his physician, he sailed for Europe. bin jo his flj eleciion General Garfield has served const:,utnely »u Cou^r^ss, aud has been th!.- lender outtio iepub.Ie*ui side tor t^ie last five years his ip hes are amoug the ablest and most e!Iee.i»«. ever delivered by any mau in any par.iamentary bovly, and, while as a leader he hh8 not been considered sufficiently aggressive, his adviye has always been carefully heeded, and bus been effectual iu holding back the mo radical of tbe Kepu'dlcans. General Gar eld's mllluir.- career did not'subject him to tr als of a large scale. He *bo«-od himself a jiood independent 00mluandur in tue sma.l operations in Sandv Ya.lcy. His campaign there opened ourteries of successes in the Wi^t. As a chief of staT he wa-- uurlvaled. Th'. re, as elsewnere, is .e idy to a rep. the gravest resp.msibllii.e- 11 following hi* eonv.ctions. Tae bent of his uiind was Juu.c.al. aud his judgment of military mat ers go d. His r-eord li stuno for hun a monument of cou age. and his indue* at ChicKumauira wilt never be forgotten bv a nation of br.tve m?n. In po icall fe ho is boM, Qltnly and uu^poken, noi factious, and without ever surrendering his Inrlcpeudt nc of judgment, he has a iys bet am ng the most trusted of the Hepubli-c-a party.

Personally he Is gene-ous, warm-hearted and genial. No man Keeps more cordial relations with his political antagonists, aud 110 tn«n ba»"warmer or more iiUiiie »jus peisonal attuc iments. For coiitprehensix 0 ami critical scholarship few men in puWie life can compare to hUn. It Is ild, while I11 t.ie army, ho carried the late-t lition-i of the GreeK aud Latin classics, reading th tn fo.- leisure, as oihers would the novt I of ie day.

His Washington residence is a modes' one,'Standing at tho corner of Thirteenth and 1 streets, and is the resort of the most cultured of Washington soc.ety.

HON. CIIESTElt A. AKTHUIL A The Hon. Chester A. Arthur, of New York, the Republican candidate for Vic-.' l'rvsideut. was born October 1", 1K1(I, at Franklin, t.,uud is now In the fiftieth year of his aire. He is about six feet two inches in height, rather portlc. with most dignified and gracious presence. His hair Is slightly gray, and ho wears side whiskers and a tn-u^tac.ie, both slightly, tinged with gray also. His eyes are dark brown and his face is very winning. Probably no man 111 America has a linger circle of personal friends, and no uftin bet 1 or deserves tnem, for he Is a? steadfast to them as the needle to the pole. Wiiileyeta very young lad. his parents removed to the State of Ne» York, and he attended school at Greenwich, on the Hudson, until he wa-t'ourteei. at wuich earlv ago he entered Union College aud graduated weil up iu his class at eigntei-n. In a few months ho went to the Cit of N'ew York and entered the ofliee of toe Hon. E. 1). Culver, then member of Congress iroui the First District of that St ate. Mr. Culver was at that time 0110 of the leading anti-slavery men of the dav, and it wax here that Mr. Arthur imbibed those firm Hepuollciinsentlinentsand principle* which he ha-i since so ably and tioldlv maintained in good and evil repoit. At the age of twenty-three he was delegate t»i the first Republican Cmv^ntion ever held In the State, which met at Syracur..-, an 1 he almost immediately took a posit.o'i hs an earnest, active and determined worker in the Republican cau»c. When the celebrated Lemon siave case came up lu the State and United States Court there, young Mr. Arthur was the unanimous selection of the anti-slavery people for the defense of the fugitive and the prosecution of those who sought to force him into slavery. This thing he fought to the bitter end, and when it Was over he was already a tn trked man. Up to the lK?irinnlng of the war he was engaged lu the practice of law, and wa 011 the way to a competency when the war broke out. At that time the militia' of the State of New York, as, in fac most of tne various States, was in a very por condition. It earn necesuary to at once put it in shape, and Governor Morgan called upon the energetic young lawyer to abandon his practice end come to tho aid of his State. He was made Quartermaster and Inspector General, an I with his usual Impetuosity threw himscl: he.nl and soul Into his wora. and w.ihin less tha 1 a wonth the foops from New York la-grin to go forward arme I. equippe 1 aw. sup.uicd In am ain tuat was asgrutitylng to themselves as itwato th» military auihorlt-.fs at Washington. For ur.y iree years be worked night and day at this task, and made a most sa l8fa"tory cord for himself ami bis 8uit-c. At the close of tbe war ho returned to bis practice, and was known as a hard-worker, persistent sjiident. and as a citizen whoa ways took 11 omln'jnt pirt In po iticlu tact ha •anneof tho«o men who Oclieve that everv American citizen, old and young, should be ir his Share of the political bu den. and not only Inform themselves regarding municipal and national affairs, but should also take sn active wording Inicre-d in eve.-yihing that tends to Insure goud government, and that affccts forgivid or evil the interest* of th«' po pte. He was selocted b. President Grnii I11 1871 as Collector of the Port of New York, which position ho filled untir when was removed by President Hayes for. a« w»s alleged, violating tho Civil Service rules, notwithstanding tbe fact that an Investigating Committee reported that bis office was model, and not the sllgrttnst complaint was .ard ag&fnit It. He Is uow engaged In the practlc or hU profession. He has two children, a son of fourteen and a datiirhter of eight ye its of age. He b.«l tho misfortune to k»ae bis devoted wife last January, whose death wa* sudden and unexpectco. Mrs. Artnur was a daughter of the late Captalu Kerndon. of tbe United States navy, the Intrepid explorer of tbe River Amazon, who was lost at sea while in command of tbe s'eam-hlp Central Ameri

on ber trip between Havima mid New YOrk in 1857. General Arthur will add strength to tbe ticket, and when elected will fill the biirh position for which he has been nominated with abiilty. dig-nity and Integrity.

THE JiOMlXATIXG SPEECHES.

The following nominating speeches were made in ihe Convention:

JAMKS G. BLAINE.

Mr. Joy, of Michigan, in presenting the name of Mr. Blaine, saiil:

(Jentiemon of tho Convention: I shall never couse to regret th.it che.i.u »v*cs have been sin-h 11s to auiK.se the duty upon myself to matce the noiuinatioa of a candidate to this Convention. 1 have beeu absent from the country for the past two months, and had but a rived home 3ast before this Convention, since the Convention ha« been in session I have been employed upon tbe floor all the time. If. therefore, words ot mine are Important for the candidate who *aball be proposed, they will benefit him but little. I wid, however, "bring bim oefore tie Convention in as brief a mauner as poisib.e. That it wll! be very brit-f will. I presume, satisfy the Convention an 1 tho audience, Itecuuse we are now all impatient for the v.»:tug. It was in I860, I thiuK, tuat a then young man, born in tbe old Kevstone State, but resident in the State of Maine, cut red the douse ot Representative?. It was at a time wnen the sky was lowering, when the horizon was titled with clouds, indleatour a tempest, it was just before the war. The tempest burst upon tbe country, and the war emU'Mt. which raged tor four long years. Fo tun.it Jv for us, there were at the helm of tbe ship of state tho rUht men. and it was manned with a right crew. After the whirlwind of war had raged tor four year*, the elements of strength in one of the contending parties gave wa, and pe ice at length si tt ed down upon toe country. Then ensued ihe contest, of reeonst ruction, which occupied nearlv three o- four years more. During all that perio ot time tn it young man, always tiue, alwavs brave, always eloquent, applied his talent in all the debet ai iu all ih procedures wuich weie ne.es ary either i.. ea.ry on the war or to br:ng about 1 ecousiioction upon a proper basis. And duriujrtbc pc iod -f these controversies his reputation had been emerging, growing, towering, until at last, wnen, In 18tW, reconstruction had been practically secured, his reputation was towering bofore the country, and,as one of the great names of the country, had bucomc spread abroad all over the land, li had become a household word, it was familiar in every corner. It was looked tip to from every part of the country. That name was the Hon. James G. Maine, the Senator 10111 Maine.

When tho stormy period of Audrew Johnson's time had passed away, or was passing awuv. and Gen. Grant was nominated by the country for President of the United States, ail eyes in"tne country tunica to the Hon. James G. lilaine, who was called upon to canvass the countvv. He cau\ased the country from Maine'to the Mississippi, and beyond. He made himself familiar witn the great North and tho great West. The people became familiar with him iu the North an 1 in the great West. And he had about him that wonderful power of attraction which a half-century e.irller was possessed in tho most eminent degree also bv another groat mini of this country, tue groat son of the" great State of Kentucky—Hurry Claw On the second nomination of Gen. Grant in l*sT2 he was called uion in the same way, and he traversed the country, exercising his power, his ability and his eloquence In tho cause of the country over the same extent of this northern bonier. He had become so well known, tho people of the country had beco me so well acquainted with him, he had fastened them to him by attractions so great, that in the Convention which was held at Cincinnati four years ago he had become the leading candidate of tbe Northern people for the Presidency of the United States. He was the favorite candidate of tho State which I represent in this Convention. Its delegates went to that Convention with a view of iii-gin* and securing, if it we.e possible, his nomination. He came within a few vote- of success, when for some reason his column broke, and the result was another nomination, which had not been befo the country. ou all know tbe disappointment, you all kno.\' perhaps tho astonishment, which was created in sonic sections of the country ut that result, lit the State wh eh I have trie honor to represent upon this i.ooi it was considered almost a calamity to the Individual mciiiJ ers of the Republican par ty of that State. They felt it almost as a pe sonal blow. Hut while he might, have Decn disappointed reasonably in the results, when tho canvass came on. and when the tlghtwaa olose one, and wnen It was doubtful whether the Republicans would succeed I11 oleCfTiig their candidate, although be had been repudiated at the Convention, he buekLd on bis harness, ho entered the ranks, ho traversed the country, and fought manfully, gloriously and vigorously until the battle was won, though by a small majority. Tho result wa^ that bo endeared himself tenfold more to tho workftig Kopublleans of this Northwest than he had ever don» before. And when this Convention was called, the people of tbe State which 1 represent, and which had so earnestly advocated him before, determined again to place him before this Convention. I am but cxocuting their wish when I do so.

Now. gentlemen, I will say, with regard to the State of Mlculgan. It is not a doubtful State. It is a State which stands by its banner all the time. It. will not matter, so far as the work, the vlu-or and the energy which that State will put Into the contest, whet ho ho be nominal'd here or not. We stand by tbe flag there, whoever miiv be the standard-bearer. With these remarks, uontlemen. longer than 1 Intended. I have the honor to present to this Convention, as a candidate for tho Presidential chair for the ensuing term, lie voted for ly the people, the name of the Hon. James G. limine, of the Stuie of Maine. [Applause.]

GENERAL U. S. GRANT.

Mr. Conkling, of New York, in presenting the naaicof ex-i'residentGrant, ?aid:

"And when asked what State he hails from, tur sole reply shall be, He hail* from Appomattox

With it* famous apple-tree." In obedience to insti uoti -ns I should never dare to disregard, expressing also ray own firm conviction. 1 rise to propose« nomination wit 11 wbiciithe country aud tho IKpiMiean pa*ty can grandly win. The election before us Is to be the Austerlite of Anierlc politic*. It will decide for ni 'iiv years whether toe country shall be Repubdean or Cossnck. The suprem need of tne hour is not a candidate who c».n carry M.chigoi. Ail Republican candidates can do thili. The need 1* »t of a candidate popular In the Territories, b"cnu«e ihey have no vote. Tne need is of a candidate wno curry doubtful 8t ites Not the doubtful St.ues 0! the Nor h, bin doubtful Sates of tne Hot th w.iich we tiave -ard. if 1 understand it aright, ought to take little or no prt he.e. been use the South ha* no'h ng to give, but evervthlnir to receive. No. gentlemen, the no-d that presses upon the consci -nee of this Convention is at a can lldate wuo can earr* doubtful States l»otn North and South. And believing that be, more surely Ui «n any her man, cut carry Ne* York airalnst any opponent, aud c.sn earn* not only the North but several States or the South, New York Is, for Ulysses S. Grant.
