M. deBrazza, who once tried to ex

Central Africa by “perfidious Al
bion.” _
It will be some, and even a consid-
European accounts for some time
past, especially since the dentil of the
late Emperor Frederick Charles of
Germany, evince a concatenation of
events which indicate revolutionary
movements and changes in the social
and political structures of European
society. The young Eiaperor, Wil
liam of Germany, seems to have been
on the go most of the time to Russia
and Austria, to be followed by a visit
to King Herbert of Italy and the
Pope. Bismarck is evidently the
prime mover in some groat scheme to
put Germany in the lead in European
Governmental policy. It is said that
Emperor William is hostile to Eng
land, although liis country is so close
ly allied to 11 mt country by marriage
ties. It will probably not bo very
long before Bismarck’s plans are fully
understood. One thing is evident
that the policy of this great minister
is to strengthen arbitrary power, us
contradistinguished from the rights of
the people under those governments.
A drama is certainly being opened, if
not with a brilliant and startling
flourish, that will almost certainly
lead to a general European wai.
There is boldness in the design with
Germany, Russia and Austria on the
one hand, and England and France
and probably Italy and possibly
Spain on the other. The smaller
States may be involved as their inter
ests may be at stnke. There is cer
tainly boldness in the design, and the
object is not to give greater freedom
to the people but to subject them to
violence and terror by arbitrary in
stitutious established by violence and
terror. The young Emperor of Ger
many, William, seems to bo influ
enced by a warlike disposition, which
plays into the hands of Bismarck who
is anxious to crown bis long career
with a master stroke that will make
(Germany the master power in Eu
rope, He thinks, doubtless, that
England cannot check his ambitious
aims. England’s vulnerable points
are the wide spread possessions she
holds in almost every section of the
world. She lacks the means and
forces to resist tire assaults of three
great powers upon her possessions of
the world, especially in Asia, where
her dependencies may be easily led to
rise against her. We look witli great
interest to the present aspect of Eu
ropean uffairs. Tho spectacle is not
frightful as yet, but the prospect is
both terrible and frightful if we have
formed a correct idea of the policy
and movements of the three great pow
ers of Germany, Russia and Austria
trapping me. In a few days I expect
to be in a position to make public the
manner in whioh the affair was plan
ned and the identity of the persons
concerned in it. The efforts, which
are being directed to the discovery of
the tricksters, were instigated by me,
and I think I shall succeed in making
everything plain.” We are making a
very brief statement from much that
has been published about this un
pleasant matter. The President and
Cabinet have taken steps to have
Lord Sackville-West recalled by the
Britisli Government. We regret this
but the circumstances seem to de
mand it. The administration must free
itself from tho slightest appearance of
any connection witli the Minister’s
great imprudence, though his sympa
thies were enlisted in its favor. Wo
do not. know what tho English Gov
ernment may say or do, but its Min
ister bus brought tho difficulty on
himself. The result is the more un
pleasant as he was actuated by kind
ly feelings towards our government in
the policy manifested in his letter to
“Murchison.” We will furnish our
readers witli such disclosures as may
be made on the subject. We believe
the President and all the members of
his cabinet were united in asking the
withdrawal of the present Minister.

Every Democrat entitled to a vote
should go to the polls to day, the 6th,
and cast his voto for Cleveland and
Thurman. Of course we expect to
give them a unanimous Southern vote
but let the people show in every

if the result was doubtful in our sec

deeply interested as if the result was
doubtful in any Southern State.
Senator Evarts has a new bat. He
has long been famous for bis shocking
bad hat, and for many years his well
worn old tile has attracted notice in
the streets, and 1ms been a theme of
jocularity in the courts. The glossy
tile in which he now deports himself
is worn too far back on his head, as
the old one was, but be thus gives a
good display of his Gladstouian brow
and Ciceronian features.
Some one, over the Signature of
“Murchison,” wrote to tho British
Minister, Lord Sackville-West, profes
sedly, to ascertain from him what he
thought Englishmen should do as
they preferred to voto for Mr. Cleve
land, if they could ascertain that lie
was not unfriendly to English views
on the tariff. Lord Sackville-West re
plied to the letter from Beverly, Mass.,
under date of September 13th, in
which he said: “You are probably
aware that any political party, which
openly favored the mother country at
the present moment, would lose pop
ularity, and the party in power is ful
ly aware of this fact. The party,
however, is, I believe, still desirous,
of maintaining friendly relations with
Great Britain, and is still as desiious
of settling all questions with Canada
which have been unfortunately re
opened since the retraction of the
treaty by the Republican majority in
the Senate, and by the President’s
messsage, to which you allude. All
allowance must, therefore, be made
for the political situation, as regard 8
the Presidential election, thus created,
It is however impossible to predict
the course which President Cleveland
may pursue in tho mutter of retalia
tion should he bo elected, but there
is every reason to believe that while
upholding the position he has taken,
he will manifest a spirit of concilia
tion in dealing witli the question in
volved in his message.”
In this extract is found the whole
extent of Lord Sackville-West’s in
terference in tlie question of the
American election. The general be
lief now is, that “Murchison” is a
cheat and that the object was to in
jure Mr. Cleveland and impair the
chances of his election. Lord Sack
ville-West, himself, says; “The letter
sent me from California was undoubt
edly written for the purpose of en-
From tho New York Graphic.
It would bollard to find a happier
man than Justice Lamar of the Su
preme court. Ho is in Ids element.*
He was never contented while in tin-
cabinet. Executive duties were not
congenial to him. It was not long
after giving up his seat in the Senate
that lie discovered his mistake. How
ever, lie seldom complained and did
the best he could. He worked hard
and aimed to school himself in hiB
new place. President Cleveland
thought a great deal of the distin
guished Mississippian, and he was
among the foremost men in the South,
and it was an honor tliut no man
could refuse—going into the first
democratic cabinet in twenty-four
years. A friend of Justice Lamar,
who had spent an evening with him
this week, remarked to-day: “I shall
never forget how worried and perplex
ed Secretary Lamar was during the
year 1885. Applicants for positions
were then coming to Washington by
the hundreds. Droves of the uspiring
ones used to liaunt the corridors of
the interior department building
every day. They would remain for
hours, each and every one clamoring
for an audience with the Secretary.
They were all loaded with recom
mendations, and many had influen
tial friends to accompany them to the
department. They seemed to imagine
that tlie oidy tiling necessary to do
was to pick out the office they want
ed. Secretary Lamar had heard the
appeals of about twenty men in one-
day. Ho was worn out, and inquired
if there were any more men on tho
outside who wanted to see him on
that day. Being told that not less
than forty were hanging around tlie
portals of his office, yearning and
begging to present their claims, he
jumped up, ran his hands through his
long, thick hair, and exclaimed in a
fit of' desperation: ‘Open the doors,
and turn ’em in on me; them, turn
’em in on me. Let me get through
witli this business as soon us possible.’
The great amount of routine business
was terrible enough on Secretary La
mar, but when it came to satisfying a
horde of office seekers, he hardly
knew wlmt to do. I was joking him
recently about his experience that
day. Secretary Lamar was anything
but a happy man; Justice Lamar is
another being. He is now in his ele
ment, and being a man of strong judi
cial mind, the country will be satisfied
witli his service before he retires. He
is a reading, thinking man, and will
make a great judge.”
Washington Letter,
From Our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, Oot. 20, 1888.
Editors IJnion-Rkcorbkr:
Mr. Cleveland lias once more proven
himself equal to the occasion, and the
occasion wus a most extraordinary
oqe. For tlie first time in the history
of the United States, the representa
tive of a foreign nation lias attempt
ed to take part in a political intrigue
in this country. Lord Sackville-West,
the Britisli minister, wrote a letter
under date of Sept. 18, to an alleged
correspondent in California, in which
he took occasion to Fay that the Pres
ident did not mean a word of his re
cent Canadian retaliation message,
and that after his election he would
prove himself a true friend of Eng
land and English interests. He furth
er advises his alleged correspondent
to vote the democratic ticket in tho
interest of England. The purpose of
this letter is very clear. It was writ
ten for the express purpose of being
made public on the eve of the elec
tion in the hope of driving the Irish
vote from Mr. Cleveland. In this
olty, where it' is well known that the
relations between the administration
of Mr. Cleveland and the British Min
ister have been strained from the
first, there is no difficulty experienc
ed in arriving at the cause of this ac
tion on tiie part of Lord Sackville.
lie had given up all hope of controll
ing Mr. Cleveland, hence bis desire to
defeat him if possible. There was al
so another inducement; Lord Sack-
villound Mr. Harrison, the republican
candidate for tlie presidency, are
warm friends, and have been for
many years. When Mr. Harrison
was in tlie Senate they were con
stantly together. When the letter
was first published, few people be
lieved it to be genuiue, so very fool
ish did it appear for a man in Lord
Sackville’s position to have written
such a letter, but its authenticity was
fully confirmed by Sackville, and to
rnako matters worse be allowed him
self to be interviewed for publication;
and tlie language he used was just
about as obnoxious as it could possi
bly have been to patriotic Ameri
cans. As soon as Mr. Cleveland as
certained that Lord Sackville admit
ted having written this audacious
meddling letter, he instructed Secre
tary Bayard to cable a demand upon
tlie English Foreign Office, through
tho American Minister in London, for
tins immediate recall of Lord Sack
ville. That such a thinly veiled fraud
as this letter will have any effect up
on the Irish vote is not for a moment
to be believed by any one at all famil
iar with the leading characteristics
of that race. They are practically
solid[tor Cleveland and will remain so.
As for Lord Sackville, he will be ex
tremely fortunate if begets out of the
scrape with no worse punishment
than a recall by his government, In
any other country but the United
States his impudence and audacity
would have put liis life in danger.
Mr. Cleveland by his prompt action
In resenting the insult to himself and
the American people by this English
meddler, lias shown that he is the
right man in the right place, and the
people will show their appreciation
before long .by giving him another
term.
Time, it is said, evens all things. It
would certainly seem so, wlten the
republican Supreme Court is almost
constantly handing down opinions
upholding the doctrine of “States’
Rights” to a greater extent than was
ever claimed by its most radical adhe
rents previous to the late war. If
these decisions were being made by a
democratic court, the republican edi
tors of the country would all be call
ing it revolution, but now they hard-
ly/H%ter to tlie decisions, except as
Items of nows.
Mr. John J. Mahoney, of New York
has bet $20,000 against $10,000 with
Mr. Frank J. Huutoon, of the same
city, that Mr. Cleveland will-be re
elected. Mr. Mahoney's name indi
cates that he is ,an Irisli-Ainerican.
He doesn’t seem to think that Mur
chison can scare Irish democrats.
It is probable that the effort of the
London Times to injure Mr. Parnell
will be followed by giving an impetus
to the Home Rule movement. It is
calculated to destroy what is termed
the Liberal Unionist party and great
ly advance the Home rule policy.
Common Sense
Should be used in attempting to cure
that very disugreeabie disease, ca
tarrh originates in Impurities in the
blood, local applications can do no
permanent good. The common-sense
method of treatment is to purify the
blood, and for this purpose there is
no preparation superior to Hood’s
Sarsaparilla. That this peculiar
wedicino does cure catarrli is shown
by the many testimonials from people
who have found relief upon using it
