Legaa for Viea Fresident. Cuicago, June 6. One hour and a half before time for the Convention to assemble vast crowds of people were in front of the entrauces waiting for the door to open. It seemed as if there had been no change from last night when thousands demanded admittance to a hall already crowded. The doorkeepers, policemen and sergeants at arms exercised great patience, and there was little irritation.

One of the doors being opened, aud the crowd being in a measure repressed, the hall filled up rapidly. At 10:30 a. m. nearly 10,000 people were in the hall, and outside the doors and in the immediate vicinity 3000 to 4000 more were standing, eager for admittance. It was twenty minutes past the hour for meeting when the gavel fell, and Chairman Henderson announced that the Convention would be opened by prayer by Rev.

Dr. Scudder, of the Second Presbyterian Church. At the conclusion of the prayer the Chairman in accordance with the order of business adapted, directed the Secretary to call the roll of States on the first ballot for a candidat for President of the United States. The progress of the roll call was watched with excited interest, and announcements of the votes of various States was received with cheers. FIRST BALLOT.

McFar-land, aged twenty-two, a coal merchant at the town of Northumberland, two miles from here, committed suicide to-day, by shooting himself in the right temple. He wrote a farewell note to his mother. Then he bade his friends good-bye, who were with him at the time, but were not quick enough to frustrate his intention hen he drew a Smith fc Wesson revolver from his pocket and committed the act. They at first thought he was jesting. lie had been with them to a dance last niht, ami seemed as gay as any one resent, and no cause is known for is action.

Love spells have not "gone out'' altogether even in this prosaic age. At the crass-examination of ex-Senator Sharon at San Francisco, in a suit of breach of promise brought against him by Miss Hill, it was made known that this young lady had sought to bew itch the ex-Senator by putting his socks into a new-made grave, having first charged them not after the manner of Santa Claus, but with cabalistic papers and locks of her own hair. This mystic rite seems to have been quite effectual or something else was since Miss Hill confessedly charmed her admirer to considerable purpose, if not up to the point of marriage. The intelligence will naturally produce much excitement among ladies who may wish to expedite the alleged purposes of their admirers by devices like those which Erabanti imputed to Othello.
