The Detnoerttia Couvstitloti, which eras adjourned to lO o'clock this Moralaf. did not mm together till 2JO P. Ji. Ths delay wm cftOMd by th unusual wwat of work lmpoewd oa th Cottunltts en Contacted goats, which wm la miiIdd nearly all sight, sad did aotcompUto Ua labor until 2 F.JL to-day. The commltto, which wm made up by the delegate from CoBfTmaioaal districts, Mth district ehooalnir ox, did sot provs to hs so atlraly la ths intret of Tub-essay Hall wm booed and expected.

It bad a clear aati-TUdea majority, bat a majority of lu members eoald aot bo prevailed oa to carry oat oho Kelly's programmo to the extent he desired. After the Bstos conflict of yootorday and the bad blood a rendered, they doomed it prudsnt to pttrsu a conciliatory policy, aad. whllo they readily admitted the Tammany delegation, they could sot bo iadaeod to reject their bittsrsst enemies the lleLsvug-hlla delegation from Brooklyn, la fact, they mado no change whatever la the delegations that occupied seats la the convention yesterday, bat decided against the contestants la each aad overy case. A strong; Sort was mado by the Tildea men to got the Onondaga, delaratlon rejected, which eras a bolting delegation aad entirely Irregular, bat It did aot succeed. If It bad, it would bar given the lid en men a majority in the convention, and the committee wm strong enough aati-TUdea not to permit that.

Tammany made a streaaoos effort to got the Porroy delegation admitted from Westchester, bat wm ably resisted- by Pardy, and defeated by 1 majority. On the reassembling of the convention this afternoon, Mr. Laning, the odious temporary Chairman of yesterday, was loudly cheered by the Tammany men on taxing the chair, aad wm htaaH with equal rigor by the other side. When the turn alt bad subsided. Gen.

McQuade rose to a question of pririlega. Bs alluded to the excitement and Ill-temper that prevailed yesterday, during which, he many thins were said and done that would not meat the calmer judrmsnt of their authors. While he agreed with his colleagues that they were not fairly treated In the rulings of the Chair, yet he did not approve of the resolution passed at their meeting la the opera-house, and particularly of that part which east aspersions upon the Secretaries of the convention. It will be recollected that the resolution denounced them thieves," aad accused them of cheating In the count. Two of these Sec retakes, be said, were appointed on his motion, and he believed all of them were honorable men, who would not be guilty of falaif jlng the count, or 'doing any other corrupt thing.

No reply was made to this dsfsnse of the Secretaries, aad the eoavention proceeded to affect a permanent organisation by escorting Era st us Brooks, who wm agreed upon last evcaiag, to the chair. HOX. ERASTUS BROOKS SPEECH. llr. Brooks did not get much applause either oa taking the chair or during the delivery ef his speech.

The convention appeared to have in mind, his former Know-nothing record and viewed him askance as a sort of traitor from the enemy's camp. Nevertheless, his speech, which he had prepared, was well delivered, and en the financial question wm sound, too sound. In fact, to meet the views of a large portion of his hearers. His speeeh wm follows: Where there are differences of opinion in essentials, let there be salty an aoa-esaeBtlala. and in all thing charity.

Having coneluded the reading, Mr. Peekham, after telling the Convention that the committee bad spent a great deal of time over it aad bad discussed it thoroughly, moved the previous question on Its adoption, thereby catting off debate.

This proposition wm received with loud protests from a dosen voices, bat by the adroit management o. the Chair It was carried by viva voce vote, much to the disgust of the soft-money Demoerata. Soma supplenaomtary raeo- latlons were then offered, one by Peter Mitchell, favoring the abolition of the national banks and the substitution of greenbacks for their issues. But all of thesoj wore squelched, after a short wrangle, by the decision of the Chair, that under the rule they must go to1 the Committee on Resolutions without debate. There they were sent, and there they will lie buried, as Mitchell said of his bantling, until the next btate 'Convention.

I I AN EFFORT IjTO CAPTURE THE STATE COMMITTEE. The apprehended row wer the platform haying been thus avoided, everything prom ised unity and 'harmony for the remainder of the Convention. But Just st this juncture, John F. Seymour, a brother of the great Horatio, hurled a bombshell Into the assembly in the shape of a resolution that Addison Gardiner, Horatio Seymour, Homer A. Kelson, Hesekiah Stunris.

and be. Witt C. West, be added to the Democratic. State! Committee. for the coining year, as at.

large. He proposed the resolution in a eunninglyfeoneeived speech, in which he excused his extraordinary action, on the' plea that some plan ought to be devised to avoid the ever-recurring coateets or seats In Democratic conventions, which' yearly come up from the Counties of New-York and Kings, and that the old. experienced candidates and Impartial Democrats named his resolution were just the men to devise tt. The real purport of the resolution, which was the work of Tammany and! the anti-Tililsuitcis, was interpreted to it undoubtedly was, to enable them to make sore of an I anti-Tilden State Committee for the coming! 3rrr- They were already sure of a majority bf three, but lest Tilden might capture some them, as they charge he has done of the last State Committee, they wsntod to make their (majority secure beyond perad-venture and have men on it who! could not be bought. Fou out of the five names mentioned in the resolution Sturgisis theexeeption are known tc be anti-Tilden men.

so that this inangturre, if successful, would add four more to their majority on the State Committee. As soon Seymour had completed the reading of his resolution. Senator Eeclesine sprang to his feet and ascended it, and moved the previous question on its adoption. "Not Nor rang out from dozen voices, and Smith Weed jumped up in great excitement but being reminded by the Chair that th motion wm not debatable, xte bad to be content with expressing his hipe that the Convention would not permit itself to be gagged into the passage of such a and, ln.ordsr-that it might be known who were cowards and slaves, and who were not, he -demanded the yeas nava. This was conceded, and the Secretary 'began calling the Mr.i Peekham, of Albany, was tUe first to avail himself of the privilege of ekplsinlng his vote, which he did by saying there was 00 necessity for the action sought by (his.

resolution, and without mincing -matters, hejwpuld say that its object, as every one knew, was to capture a State Obmmittee. Applause from the Tilden id.) Mr. Hill, of Chemung, was the next to explain, and he objected to fureing the resolution on the convention without discussion or amendment- If these men named in the resolution were such valuable adjuncts to the State Committee, let them be put oa by the delegates from their respective districts. The attempt to force them on the convention in this manner he branded whereupon he wm called to order by the Ljisir. Smith Weed? came next, with an explanation of his vote.

Be said that after the scenes of yesterday and the submission, by what he believed to bo pi majority of the convention, to the unfair rungs of the Chairman, they had gone to work and elected fa State Committee, each Congressional, district selecting the man of its choice. The resulti of that election did not suit certain, parties, and now this trick wm sprung upon the oouventiou, and the honored name of HoraVio Sejtnour (had been lagged in here by his! own brother to eeare hn unholy purpooe. Apleueev Frank Mclaughlin, of Albany, explained hia vote by Baying that the only time members "at large of the State Committee had been elected wm when there was a Congressman at large" to be elected, and then Mr. Tilden was added to the committee. He Warned the eoantry delegates, tnaJ If 'l they submitted to this innovation, lithe day would come when It would be used by the great Cities of Kew-York) and Brooklyn against them aad for their disfranchisement la the councils of the party.

McLaughlin's hint set the eoantry delegates to khiaklag, aad Faulkner, ef Livingston, took I up the same cry when his name wm called. and repeated the) warning to his country frienda It began now to look though the resolution would bo defeated if the roll WMssJled through. The mover e( It got frightened and jumped up, aad asked tie privilege of withdrawing it, giving as anj excuae that bis motives in offer-tag 1 it had I beea entirely misapprehended and mis rs presented. A question arose aa to his. right to withdraw a resolution while the vote was being taken on it, bat on the sngges-ttoa of Mr.

Boob, the convention allowed him to do i as a matter of courtesy. Half a dosea Tammany men stood ready to renew it, but borons they could do so. Bee be moved that the evavantien proceed to the nomination of a Judge of the Court of Appeals. The motion waa carried, and thus the anti-Tildenltee ware eavexl the mortification of a diagmoeful defeat la their cuaaiagly-devieed trash to lacrosse their majority oa the State Committee. 1 1 -THE COURT OF APPEALS JUDGESHIP.

The Tammany votes were all east for Sawyer, which eohnnned the charge made by ha Tilden men that a had been made with the I St. Lawrenee and Franklin County delegates for their support of Tammany yesterday.

Mr. Bradley spent his early life on his father's farm, but removed with him! to Chenugo County, where he received a good edheation, was admitted to practice, and became well-known en the "Southern-Tier." In 1871 he was I a candidate for the Sate Senate, but was defeated by the Republican candidate by a majority of seven votea.

In 1 872 be was a member of the Constitutional Commission appointed by Gov. Hoffman and the Senate.

THE REJECTED DELEGA1ES RETVRK. ARRIVAL Or TEE AJTri-TAatatAXT HEN THIIB OPINIONS OP THE TAMMANT TACTICS IN THE CONVENTION. When the-train from Syracuse bringing the Antl-Tsmmany delegstss srrivsd at the Grand Central Depot at 7 of clock last evening, about 50 of the men whoae sddrSe had been rejected got off and started for theit homes. Among the number were Mr. Andrew H.

Green, John B. Haaklaa, ex-Senator Bixby. Hon. Jaiea Daly, John D. Cougnlin, Timothy Sheay and odhers.

Sir. Wsterbary and the rest of iae delegation came by a later train. The telegraph had outrun them, and they wars received by a large prty ot diasppoisted thSf talk of newspaper reporters, who gsve the politicians a welcome. While the delegates waa tinged with at the unfair manner lu disappointment which they had ibeeu treated by Tammany Hall aad Its eoantry allies, they were by no means dis-soursged, Ther came back with all their opposition band Intensified, snd not a man of them healiatsd to declare that the opposition to him end his candidates this Fall will be stronger and mere vigorous than svsr. From conversations held with several of the more prominent delegates it ws understood that the Kelly tactics were forasjiadowed from ths moment the convention assembled In Syracuse.

The attempt of Kelly to have! the opponents of Tammany Hall ignored completely and tor all time proved distasteful to the Democrats is the country, who are by no means admirers of Kelly, or Tammany Hall either, tor that matter! Mr. Andrew fl. Green said that hs went to Syracuse as a delegate of the Anil Tammany Party, but did aot enter tlj convention. He did not expect that Kelly would be allowed to direct what a majority ef the convention, ontaide of ths Tammany delegation, should to about sdmlttinr contestants. He waa diseatianea with the result of the contest, as any fair-minded man would be.

it was outrageous that, in' suehj a eaae, Tammany should have been allowed Ito vote, while the Anti-Tammany delegates had no voice. Tne dociaiou tiiat Tammany Hai abould say whether its representatives aiOae ahouid come in. waa made by a subservient Chairman, and the decision, whether sustained by precedent or not, waa unjoat. if bothdeie-gationa sad been deprived of the privilege of voting upon the admission of the eontestsnts, the srrsnge-ment wonld have been fair. Bat Kelly saw that sneh an arranKemept would not do.

It would have been disastrous to him to permit it and he de-mended that te 63 vote of hia followers anonid be counted while-those of his opponents meat be excluded. The vbte announced was 1U5 to 154. Take Tammar 'a vat away aad the Anti-Tammany delegation would have been admitted, aa a plain majority waa In their favor. Mr. Greea aaid that Mr.

Wed a bravej flght for the admission of the Ant 1-T am many delation bad been a gratifying one to them, lie alau expected that the Anti-Tammany Demoerata oil Id now organia for good woTk thia Fall, and tnat tnere would be au frittering or waatta away of etrengta- lie hoped there would be a cordial and honest combination with the Kepublicaaa so elect City officers. Mr. Jamas lialy said Yet, we come back badly beaten la the convention i shamefully beaten: bat we nvot give lie eatd tost ta perform snnes of Kelly at Syyeeaa ought to convince all Democrats of his determination to be supreme In control, regardless of epaaequeaees. As for submitting after Shi rebuff, that was aot to supposed for aa instant- The eppoaeote ef Tammany Hall aad the domination of.

HERB AUOUST WTLHELMJ. Last night the Fall and Winter series of concerts commenced In the most brilliant way st Steia-wsy Hall.

The occasion waa rendered remarkable by ths first appearance of Herr August WuhelmJ. the violinist. Stelnway Hall was filled by an audience remarkable alike for numbers and refinement. Perhaps from dearth of music durimc the Summer, th people present, were much more enthusiastic tbsn one generally witnesses in a Kew-York audi-snes. and all the performers were cheered and recalled- The reception of Herr WQhelmj waa aneh aa an intelligent audience give only to an artist of ths very highsst order.

Herr WUbelmJ, whose repertoire is known to be exceedingly varied, seems to have chosen for hia debut three compositions of the most different style. He performed last night the concerto in (first movement) of Paga-nini. nsxt a paraphrase on tha Pri sailed from Wagner's -MetBtareinger," snd lastly, Ernst's Airs Three more different schools of ths violin, snd further apart, could not be imagined. It wss a bold attsmpt to bring ths psst Italian, the later Viennese or French schools in jnx- ta position with tha present, the most positive inter pretation of Richard Wagner. The accomplishment of these thre moraesuz, the perfection with which the varied styles were aaaamed.

was a triumph for Herr The violinist Is, perhaps, somewhat ovsr six feet in height, well built, and has a head which ra calls somewhat that of Beethoven. The pose Is.of ths easiest and most natural kind. Ths body hardly sways st all. Whsn the vioiin calls for some coup arcJut of extraordinary vigor, it la ths artist's head and arm which moves alone. Endowed with a singularly powerful physique, Herr Wllhelmj is enabled to draw from his instrument its utmost vibratory -power.

Tha volume of sonority pours out In am pleat measure- There are no strident sounds, no sacrifice of delicacy. Complicated movements, where the fingering mnat be perfectly jutt, are never impaired by a falae visor, but are given with crisp accuracy. Apart from mechanical excellence, that mere tmettria At Varehtt. Wllhelmj a musical art la pervaded with a broad and noble feeling. Those-exec ling difficulties which are known to extst ln ilhe Paganinl concerto seemed to play themselves, ao little perceptible were they.

It was In the paraphraae of the Pre is lied of Wagner that ampleur and noble sentiment were most distinguishable. It was masculine art in lu grandest conception which took vthia taenia snd. without, false ornament or a single trick, brought it auperoly through to ita conclusion. Applause here was gives without stint, for the beat muaical interpretation we have ever had of Wagner waa now beard for the first time. Ernst's better known Airs Hongrois," replete with quaint melody, though bristling at tins' es with difficulties, silo wed the srttst to give i that true sad and penaive style which distinguishes these touching melodlea.

What can ws say of the tone Herr Wllhelmj produce from hia violin Hia Is not a school of violence. The vibrations are ao true, must be so acoustically correat, that their purity alone gives them their perfect Intensity. The bow movement, the returning of the ardut on the strings, la Imperceptible. The great distinguishing trait of thia master is the truthful, uoexaggerated sentiment which he possesses. Mat.

Julia Kiv4-Kin, the pianist, performed the Beethoven concerto in minor snd Haberbier-Guillmant prelude and ague with great excellsnee and precision. With sufficient power, the lady possesses exceeding delicacy of, touch. The pianist was frequently recalled. Mia Kate L. James gave Er-nsnl lnvolaml" snd the Jewel Song with marked success.

Endowed with a good and well cultivated voice, her efforts gave undoubted pleasure to the audleaee. Under Dr. Damroweti. as conductor, the excellent orchestra performed Mendelssohn a "Becalmed at Sea and Prosperoos Voyage symphony snd Beethoven's Egmont" with sdmiraLle effect.

The Irish ProtesUnt Benevolent Boctety presented aa address to Lord Duif sria te-day. la tha course of his reply his Ex-eelleaeT aaid: I am well aware ef the ueefnl nature of the task you have aet yourselves, aad ef the broad and' liberal spirit in which yea execute It. aad It la. therefore, to you aad through you to th rest ef our Irish tellow-eountryma tn Caaada.

that 1 feel irreeiatibly com pelled to eoavey a last aad parting entreaty. No one can have watched the recent course of events without having observed, aimoat with feelings of terror, the unaccountable exacerbation aad recra-; deeceae of tboee party feuds and religious animosities from whiea for many a long day we have been comparatively free. Now. gentlemen, this Is a most serious matter. its import eanaot be exaggerated.

and I would, beseech you. and every Canadian In th land, who exercises any influence amid tha circle of hia acquaintance aay, every Canadian woman, whether1 mother, wife, aister. or daughter, to strain every nerve, to exert every faeuity-tney possess to stifle and eradicate this hateful and abominable root of bittern from among it Gentlemen. 1 have had a terrible experience lu the matters I have seen one of the greatest and most prosperous towns of Ireland the City bf Bel faat helplessly given over for an enure week into the hands of two contending religious factions. 1 have rone to the hospitals snd beheld the dead bodies of young men in the prime of lire lying stark end cold upon the hospital floor delicate forme of innocent woman writhing in agony upon hospital beds, and every one of theae atruck down by aa unknown billet by those with whom they had ao personal quarrel, towards whom tbay felt no animosity, snd to whom probably, had thsy encountered them in the inter course of ordinary life, they would have desired to show every kindness and good-wilL But where theae tragedies occurred, sense leas aad wicked aa taer were, the occasions which produced them had long existed between the contending parties traditions of i animosity and 111-' will, and the memory of I ancient grievances.

Bat what can be more Cain-like. more insane, than to import into thia country, unsullied at is bjsny evil record of civil strife itsinless paradise, fresh snd bright from the hsnde of ita maker, where all have been admitted upon equal terms the bloodthirsty strife and brutal quarrels of the Old World. Divided aa you are into varioua powerful religious communities, none of whom are entitled to claim either pre-eminence or sscendeney over ths other, but each of which reckons among Ita adherents enormous masses of the population, what hope can you have except in mutual forbearance and a generoua liberality of aentimentt Why, yoor very existence depends upon the disappearance of theae ancient feuds. Be wise, thereforo. in time.

I aay. while It la still time, for It is. the property of these hateful quarrels to feed- on their own excesses. If once engendered, they widen their bloody circuit from year to year, till they eugutf. the) entire community in internecine strife.

Unhappily, it is noj by legislation or statutory restrictions or even by the interference of sn armed executive that the evil can be effectually and radically remedied. Such alternatives, even -when successful at the time I am opl alluding to anything that haa taken place in Canada, but to my Irish experiences ax apt to leave a aenao of injustice and of a partial administration of law rankling in the minds of one or the other of the parties but, aurely, when reinforced by such obvious con-- aiderationa of aelf -preservation aa those I have indicated, the public opinion of the community at large ought to be sufficient to repress the evil. Believe me. If you desire to avert an Impending calamity, it is the duty of every human, being among you, Protestant and Catholic, Orangeman and Union man. to consider with regard to all theae matters, what la the real duty they owe to God, their- country, and each other.

Applause And now, gentlemen. I have dons. I trust that nothing 1 have aaid haa wounded the susceptibilities of any of those who nave listened to me. God knows I have had but one thought, in ad--dreaains these observations to you, and that is to make the beat of thia exceptional occasion, and to take the utmost advantace of your good-will, with which I know yen regard me, in order to effect an object, upon which yonr own happiness and the happiness if future generations ao greatly depend. 1055 OF A XEfT BRITISH STEAMER.
