The Facts Reported to the llrttlsh Govern
ment by Minister Phelps.
WabiiiontON, OcL 27.—In reply to an in-
qnlry ns to what steps have been taken by
this government in regard to tbe letter of tbe
British minister, Secretary Bayard eaid to
day: “We simply laid the facts at once, and
tie a matter of course, before our minitter at
the court at St. James, to be communicated
by him tu her majesty's government ”
In regard to a cable dispatch of this morn
ing stating that the report is current in Jsm-
don that Lord Sdiabury favors the recall of
Lord Sackville, the secretary said: “That is
mer. ly a London rumor, of which I know
nothing.”
west's recall demanded.
London, Oct. 27.—Tne Sackville letter iu
cident has caused considerable stir in diplo
matic circles. Mr. Phe p«, United States
minis'er, has gone to Hatfield, Lord Salis
bury’s country residence in Hntfordshire, to
see Lord Salisbury. He called first at the
foreign office and, finding tbe prime minister
gone, be immediately followed him to his
country seat. It is said L->rd Salisbury
favors the retirement of Lord Sackville.
Lord Salisbury remained at the Hatfield
hou-c, his country borne tidav. He received
several cable dispatches from Lord Sackville,
British mia ster at » nsbingtnn, admitting
tho farts in connection with Ihe Murchison
letter mid saying that he regretted them. A
number of dispatches from Secretary of Stae.
Bsyarn were forwarded to Lord Salisbury,
io’wht h the Secretary of State urged
that, in view of the coming na
tional election in the United States,
it wits necessary that there
should be n change in the British represen
tative ut Washington, in order to cnlm popu
lar excitement.
Mr. Phelps, the American minister, snd
Mrs Pnelps visited Uatfield House this after
noon, and will he the guests of Laid Sdis
bury till Monday. Mr. Phelps and Lord
Salisbury bad a long consultation in the
library. Mr. Phelps enlarged on the neces
sity of prompt action on the part of the
British government in order to repair tbe
evil. Mr. Phe pa made a spe- ial point that
by treating Murchison as a British subject
entitled, to ad vice, despite the fact that be
stated in his letter that he was a naturalized
citizen of the United States, Lord Sackville
had disregarded and violated the
understanding of September, 1371
when Mr. Fish, then Secretary
Side, obtained from tbe English govern
ment lecogniiion of the American doctrine
of nsturdizitinn. Lord Salisbury ad oitted
that this was the must se i-ius point of tbe
view of Lord Saekvilie’s conduct. The mat
ter ii mure annoying to Lord Salisbury, iu
asinuch ns Lord Saekvilie’s appointment
originated and wan attributed to the infill
tsee of hit titter, who was the second wife
nf the late Marquis, of SnlL-bnry, and wh
has since been tuarried to the present Karl
of Derby.

Our manufactories are all doing nicely,

<*1 FVil lo a Fltt**«*n Dollar Vow,
Butuer, Oct. 27.—For several d.ys our
iifireliy quiet town has be*n remarkably
qniot, nntil ytslerdsy. Several gentlemen,
rith your correspondent, were seated
round a geni.il fire in the ordinary's
dice, when one of our oldest—and I mat
ay one of our most reliable—citizers
to speak of a
cotton seed,
that Ilia father-in-law raised in the year
1810. His relation of the won
ders of this very remarkable
cotton seed, and tbo very extravagant
price at which they sold soon attracted
• he aiiention of aii present. He said the
seed sold at one hundred dollars per
bosh I, that he atul his fa her-in-law
bought one peck., paying twenty-five dol
lars for the peck. He said lie planted
them, and that he dropped them re thin
that he made them-plant one acre; that he
gathered trout this acre K97 pounds of
lint cotton, making about f >rty five
bushels of cotton seed. At one hundred
dolla s per bushel, they were worth forty-
five hundred dollars.
The most remarkable factconnected with
this wonder i» that the gentleman stated
that he feeds these valuable ootton seed to
his milch oows.
I challenge the world to beat this yield.
Take the lint and the seed together and
we have a yield of about $-18fi0 97 from
this one acre, and the most of it fed to
co«s worth $15 a head. Injustice to our
sister state ( Alabama) I will state that we
Georgians do not claim this very wonder
ful produ -turn. But we have tho hero—
he is a bona fide citizen of Butler.
Washington, Oct. 28.—[Special.]—Rep
resentative McMillin ol Tennessee returned
today from a stumping tour through New
York Btate. He goes to Indiana tomorrow
to make several speeches there, and at the
close of the week will proceed to his home
in Tennessee to cast his vote.
Speaking to yonr correspondent tonight
Mr. McMillin said: “I have been for the
second time in New York state, aud from
what I have been able to see and bear I feel
absolutely confident of a large democratic
majority in that state. They arc just os much
interested in the tariff question now as
they were at the beginning of the
cnmpdgn, nnd will listen to nnth
iug else. While in that snMeot they
will give the closest attention to the speaker
for as long as he cares to In k to them. The
democrats will make large inroads Into the
republican majorities iu various parts of tbe
states. Iu Altuny tin y will gain at least a
thousand votes. Herkimer, Miller’s borne,
will go democratic, mid in southwestern
New Yo-k their gains will be considerable.
Every where I spike i was given enthusias

leaders hopeful and ennti rent.

Ye-tenlay I witnessed tbe grand parade

grandest ovation ever tendered a man iu this

Conference Retwe-n Hillihurj Bncl Phelps
- Illunder. Worse .hen Ctlmc.
London, Oct. 28.—Lord Salisbury had
private conference with Minister Phelps at
1! a'fie Id today In regard Vo the Kat-kvUle
affair.
The Daily News says: “Lord Sackville
has done noth ng oi whioh an honest man
need be ashamed, but there are blunders
which are worse thun crime.” ;
The Daily Telegraph says: "Nothing osn
excuse the incontinence of Lord 8sckvllle’s
pen except his transparent good faith and
candor. He cannot, however, after such a
blunder be allowed to embroil two nations.”
Tbe Standard says: “It would be
incorrect to say that the Ameri
can government " has already asked
for the recall of Lord Sackville,‘but it has
token a step little short oi that extreme
measure. It does not follow that expulsion
will be resorted to, either at all or at once.
The matter, however, is a delicate one. II
would be best lor Lord Sackville to resign
In order to avoid further unpleasantness.’”
The Chronicle says: “The singular
folly of Lord Sackville could hardly
be matched for indi-cretion, but it fs mnnt-
fesily impossible for the loverr-incnttoyielii
to a pressure such as a Now York paper de
clares will be applied. When the excite-
mfeut ia calmed, it may be found necesBary
to transfer Lord Sackville."
The Times snya: “It seems to be certain
that the American government has taken s
step that will rend, r it impossible for Lord
Sackville to remain at W asbington. We
are not prepared to cen-ure Lord
Sackville. A British miiiise.’, whelb-
Waahington or else-
were, must be an English gentleman and
may be forgiven if hois not up to all the
dirty tricks of American politilions. If the
Americans were not in the thick of a politi
cal struggle it would be impossible that
sunie of them should uot enter a protest
against the undignified vulgarities and in
terested unfairness isliown by both [parlies.

The ministers were divided among the dif
ferent tblirches this morning. Rev. Alex

Stewart Superior Court-A Wttneaa HU.ml
With a Ulstory.
Lumpkin, Oct, 28— Lumpkin enter-
taimd tbe superior court last wetk. Judge
Fort presided and Charlie Hudson, the
popula'solicitor, has been as bnsy asa
bee. Among tbe virillng lawyers were
CoL Willis, of Talbotton; Corey Thorn
ton and W. A. Little, of Columbus and
Edgar Simmons of Americas.
During the session of conrt the wirter
was struck with the peculiar “witness
6taud’ used. It was a two-story arm
chair, and as the “high-chair” bought for
the first baby in the family, and large
enough for twins.
It was discovered that these chairs have
ahistoty. When Judge Dave Howell
came to the bench he had them made, not
fur witnesses to be exalted in, but aa seats
of dignity for his bailiffs and sheriffs. At
each gate to the bar a bailiff', high in air
above his fellows, in one of these high-
chaire, holding in his hands across bis lap
a long pole as a badge of his dignity and
authority, and no one #onld enter that bar
without consent of that bailiff. Those
were days of red tape. The war had not
been long over, and men needed more
governing than now ( and the state never
had a better disciplinarian on the bench
than Judge Dave Howell.
The county authorities of Stewart, eco
nomical in habits,allowed not these chairs
to fail into “innocnons diene tide.” and
now they are used fur the “witness stand.”
I.umpkin is not behind in educational
advantages. She never had a better high
school than now. It b under charge of
Prof. A. 8. Harris. Bill Arp’s lecture
here, a few evenings since, was for the
purpose of raising money to purchase a
luller outfit for Prof. Harris’ school. Maj.
Arp sustained his reputation. He gave a
few glimpses of Mrs. Arp’s domestio econ
omy, ana be always makes Mrs. Arp out a
most shrewd and sensible woman.
