Washington, Nov. 26.—Secretary La ment today had occasion to over-rule tho decision of the army quartermaster at the West Point military academy. Some time ago this officer advertised for a road roller.

New York, Nov. 28,-JTho sale of tho $50.000,0<» new government 5 per cent, bonis to the Stowart oyn.ileate. Is grat- Ifjtng to the treasury officials here, as the members of this syndicate have ar ranged to procure all of tholr gold out side of the treasury. The officials estimate that the treasu ry wlU gain at least $50,000,000 gold on this account Already members of the syndicate have begun to deposit gold. There Is only one unfortunate feature hi the sale of the bonds to the Stewart syndicate. Fewer bonds will go abroad, as between $1*,000,000 and IM.MO.OM would have been taken by foreign houses out side the syndicate If the Stewart deal had not been mode. There are a number of foreign houses represented ln the syndi cate, but as the disposal of the bonds will be solely In the hands of four mem bers already mentioned, few of the bonds will be sold abroad, and for that reason the check to gold exports will not be so great as was expected. The weakness of foreign exchange today shows, how. over, that aome portion of the bonds will be planed aboad. There was a brisk demand for government bonds -oday, and at the last call the Uvea of the January Issue advanced l per cent, to 113 3-8. Nd, for the registered and 3-4 for the coupon to 113 t-l. bid.

Tho court reserved its deeds on, but will probably lUo an opin ion tomorrow. This is said to bo the beginning of Senator Butler’s plan to contest TAhnain’s seat hi tho senate. Tho count tonight granted tho order to than- cause anil sot December 5 as the time for hearing argument. The same points against tlui law wised by Senator Butler were raised by E. M. Bmyton, a Republ.can, last spring, but, oiVIng to various reasons, the case was never brought to a con clusion. • It Is the general op'nion among law yers that tho law Is radically defective and that it will be so declared. The supposition Is that Senator But ler intends to contest Tillman’s seat In the senate;’to which he will doulrtedly be elected by the legislature Which meets ■foinmTow. Tills is lull one' of •Ids plans of defeating T.llmau, as the senator ctitius that the last elec tion was carried by the greatest frauds.

They Name.t a Ticket to Ba Defeated by the Democrats. JUUIedgevlIle, Nov. 26.— (Special.)— The Ponnlists -held a convention here itoltunlay for flip nuroose of selecting ctndldates fur county offices. Tho convention tvss cxl'ad to order at 11 «. in. by Chairman W. I. Harper, ■with J. 31, Htembrldtje secretary. About 200 Populists were present, two of them being negroes, who evented to b.tve as much cjntro! over the meal ing as the Whites, their liberties nelng unlimited. After several minutes of discussion they decided that a eonimlt- tee of ten, five Decrees end five whites, be appointed to select from twb to four oandi.Isles for each office, who were to go Into nomination, the suc cessful mar. for each office to oppose the Democratic nominee. After an ab sence of twenty imlnutc* the committee made the following report: For sheriff, D. W. Bronjh nnd N. C.

Theta? was some bird work on every side, tout before . the no-ml- n ttion. about every man had decided iand depressed hlmnelf as to wtoo he •thought would make the beat- race, and voted nccorarngly. which resulted as follows: Sheriff. D. W. Brown, with •William Anderson vis deputy; tax re- celver, J. WeiU; f ix ««olleclor, W. It. Stembrhlge. A motion was -ttoen carried ‘to send a committee to* see the Democratic nominees for the offlcea whlcfh they hAd left vacant and require them to pledge themselves not to -Work against tliq Interests of the t'hlrd party they would nominate men to oppose them. It \b currently reported that the object of the Populists ln not opposing the IreiiH'Uivr, clurk and curonrr jTT present Is • to get support from some Democrats In tho January elections for men who ore now claiming to be Democrats and are Populists. The pcmocnUic nominee for treasurer will no doubt find, this to be true In his case. The Popultsts are working every ■scheme to. guln the confidence of the negro. In all of their meetings tho negro Is nrm in arm with the whites, and it Is amusing to see how the only intelligent men of tho PopuMst party, who are office seekers, handle tho Ig norant negroes unci whites. It Is a well proven flact that the Populist party of this county Is composed of nothing more than ;i Jot of office seekers and poor, Ignorant whites and negroes. A' ■person present at tJheir meeting yes terday . could, well see that all of the supposed ttelllgent men wanted office, but as' things are now settled with the Democracy of the county what few of them who hnve a Chance will be the worst disappointed men that • ever lived, nnd While they now slug: "On Populist ground we mow stand; '•All other ground Is sinking sand." ’'After, the January election Ui over the tune wli? be changed to » "Lord, the 'Populist ground I now for- OTor la’lid omold Democracy, which I will never again try to shako." The 'Deom^mHc primary will take place hefe <!»tv. Wednesday, the 28th, and whtt^Kerybfldy is now working hard for the nomination, the men dom inated will receive the support of his opponent. It is hard to say Just now ■w»ho will be nominated, but whoever they will be it means defeat for the Populists. Everey Democrat now seems to be aroused end Is working for the. parly and not individuals. In the race for sheriff W. J. Brake has en tered the nomination; C. W. Ennis, deputy, and H. E. McfJomb is oyt of it entirely, (leaving only two men ?or this office. With everything working ns It is now, old Baldwin' can be placed with safety in the Democratic column. VALDOSTA’S ENTERPRISE.

Today tho debate was upon tho an- nroprlatlons to tho State School at Technology, and the lunatic asylum. In the first case the report of the finance committee will stand, and In tho latter the house will amend It. Chairman Boynton agreeing to the change, which adds $40,000 to the ap propriation. The committee recommended $22,600 for the technological school. Mr. Hurst of Walton, tlie watchdog of the treas ury, wanted this cut to $18,000, olalmlng that this was tile amount heretofore received by tho Institution, exoent In 1802, when an extra $4,500 was allowed to pure ham: machinery. Chairman Boynton of the' committee, however. pnUucod the records, and showed that he was mistaken, nnd. after some further debate, In which Speaker Fleming, Mr. Brannnn of Fulton and Mr. Humphreys of Brooks strongly ad vocated the recommendation of the committee, Mr, Hurst withdrew his amendment. So the technological will get the $22,500, The school wanted ten thousand more than this, but the finance committee, ln view of the hard Umc», adopted the rule of Incrc.islng no appropriations when It could possi bly be avdldcd, and declined to mako ouch a recommendation. FOR TUB ASYLUM. An appropriation of $200,000 for each of the years 1835 and 1806 was recom mended by the committee for tho luna tic asylum. Mr. Hopkins of Ncwnnn amended by making It $210,000 for 1835 amt $250,000 for 1836. Ho delivered a strong speech' in favor of this Increase, showing that tile amount recommended by the oom- mlttee would not support the institu tion. Mr. Willingham of Monroe also entered a convinclug plea -for thei asylum. He quoted tho record, showing that the'Institution Is run on a plan/ of such economy ns to place lho cost per capita of maintaining lta inmates far below that of any other slmlkii Institution in the United States. Ho also took up the Increase in tlie num ber of Inmates, nnd lho huge numt.e| of applications now pending, hut which omnot be received on account of lack of accommodation)), aud showed mo plainly that the appropriation roemtr m*nd*d would h- Insuffi i-nt. that nt the conclusion of his argument Chair man Boynton arose and said the com mlttoe had made Its recommendation under a misapprehension of the situ ation. When the hill cornea up again tomoirow Chairman Boyuton will agree to the increased appnoprlsllor for the asylum, and It will lu all proh ability be made. Chairman Doynion said tho finance oomnlttce had waited to hair a recom mendatlou from the lunatic asylum committed; but had heard nothing about the needs of tho InsUtutian, nnd therefore concluded that the Mine no. pioprlattan hs made for last V.i,r would bo sufficient.
