ELECTION NOTICE For Madison County FOR STATE OFFICERS AND MEMBERS OP THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY. THE ASSASSIN'S CA8E.

Ma lalortereas wllh the Jeateae'. Washisotox, June, 24. The Cabinet divided not to interfere with tbe sentence of the assasain, and the Attorney Uenerul, this morning, instructed the Marshal of tho District and Warden of the jail to keep the prisoner in strict eoulineiiieiit, ami allow no one to see him accept his spiritual ad-viwrs, his physicians and the officer of the jail. Tho Attorney General to whom all npM-al and Mtitions thai were presented to the President, Iteming on Hie assassin's case, had been referred, submitted an elulsirale re-Nirt to the Cabinet last evening, reviewing alt tho points presented in favor of a respite, and recommended that it be not granted, on the ground that the sanity of the prisoner had Imhmi fully established at the trial. The rcMirt was generally discussed and unanimously approved by the Cabinet all members of which were present.

An understanding was reached that nothing should he discliMed as to the decision of the Cabinet until ufter it should Is' known lo the prisoner. THE ASSASSIN AllVISKII OK THE ories of ths past, and our hope for the future, that discarding all private ana personal prejudice and disappointments, if any exist, and with an eye single to the promotion of the public welfare, you adhere firmly to the principle of our party, and seek vindication ot those undying principles In the triumphant election and faithful service of our nominee. Having done this, and when two year hence, we again take the reckoning of our Ship of State, we feel confident that our euemle and opponents shall find noth lug to cavil or complain at except that another successful Democratic admin istration has again belied all tlieir prophecies of evil.

Let every one who has the welfare of his county and State at heart turn out, Saturday, and take a hand in send ing good men to the Convention for next Tuesday.

We appeal to every Democrat in the lunty to go to the precinct poll on Saturday and express his choice for delegates. Thus we are sure to have g.xxl selections. Geore E. Spescek, who is still charged to Alabama, has been appoint ed by President Arthur as one of the Government directors of the Union Pacific R. R.

Company. If you do not take a part in the pri mary election of delegates you will have but little right, if any, to complain of, or criticise the action of the County Democratic convention. It is greatly to be hoped that Mr. W. P.

Cbitwood, nominee for tbe Sen ate from Lawrence and Colbert, may be elected. He is an able lawyer and a gentleman of statesmanslike cliaracs ter. State politics is the absorbing theme, in Alabama.

from VhT. day tb AiZZSZ UDinii S3 L. H. Coulson, chairman of the Ke publican executive Committee of Jack son, publishes a call for a mas meet ing of tbe Republicans of Javksoi oouuty at SoolUboro, next Saturday. "til select four delegates to attend the Depubllcan State Conventiou." Coul son, however, with wonderful, maiden like modesty keeps the important part of his "commuuioation'' for tbe postscript, a follows: 6.

It Is very probable that Hon. Wm. M. Lowe will be here on that day, a he will be in Soottsboro several day next week, and It will be a good opportunity for the people to see him." Thl certainly I one of the best jokes of the hour. Coulaon has larruped Col.

Lowe unmercifully, not for being a Bourbon, not for being a Democrat. Oh no, it was since that Innocent era in the Colonel's history that Coulson laid bis licks on his political back Coulson's castigation was given to him that he might expel the Greenback demon. Yet, scarcely had a season or two passfd, and Coulson begins to lick not the Colonel's back but his boots. Ah you forgotten the manuscript mince-meat into which you converted the Colonel? Or. is there a better understanding? Addrraa the llrnmrailr and ouaervatfveaiiu Kxeeullve Couiualtle) To the People of Alabama: In behalf of the Democratic and Conservative party of Alabama we con gnitulate you on the continued ascen dency of that party in our State, lint still more do we congratulate von on the grand achievements of our party itli exultation we isiint to these and say to ikM the ptuple, "Bv our fruits let us be judged.

You have stvn how that our htate. since that irrent conflict with an conquest over the malevolent spirit aud jsiwer of Radicalism in 1-S74, with our government reclaimed from the strangers and money-changers, our altars of home-rule and self-government rebuilt, our ueitt nnuceu to manageable pn.Hir-tions, and with all departments of the government economically, wisely and faithfully administered, has taken rapid and giant strides forward to meet its high destiny, and that to-day her people art' in the enjoyment of nciirly all the substantial bciit'iits of gooit government rightly administenil. Starting with that great era in our history our State has Isinn.u-d forward in a career of prosperity anil development which has iist.iu tided the most sanguine ot ttie people at home, and respect of those abroad. To issurc a continuance of these favorable conditions, ami to promote tbis progress and development, and to eipetiiate this good government, the reprcxcntivCH of our party have recently taken counsel together. The work of the convention is before you.

The platform of principles iidont- ed by it gives earnest that our party bases its confident hopes for a coutinu-imne of your favor upon its puipose and ability to rve the projier end of government, which is declared by our constitution to lie the protection of the citizen in the enjoyment of life. luiertv ana proiiertv. 1 lie admiral, ticket of worthy, capable and patriotic gentlemen which it presents for vimr suffrages for the high executive offices is likewise an assurance of its devotion to these principles. We sincerely trust, therefore, that you will ratify this work of the convention bv ail overwhelming majority at the polls on tne nn unv oi August next. And we congratulate you, fellow cit izens, that at present there seems to Ik? no good reason to doubt that this Democratic ascendency will continue and that under it our State will go on prospering and to prosper.

What a delightful vista of progress, prosjicrity and development seems oiK-niug to our view? What probabilities are being realized what possibilities suggested! This is no figment fancy, no enthusiast's dream. DeTocipieville, viewing our country with calm, philosophic eye. wrote: "The valley of the Mississippi is, upon the whole, the most magnificent dwelling place prepared ny uou tor man alsKle. Why should Alabama not he the choicest part the Eden ssit of this great expanse of territory? She is endowed by nature with every element of State wealth, and happiness a genial, healthful, uniform climate a soil easily requiting the labor of the husbandman with a generous yield of almost every diversity of product ex-haustless mines pouring into her lap rich treasures of those black diamonds of commerce, and that ore, which more than any other subserves the purposes of mankind vast forests and regions of magnificent timber, and abundant waterways, like great arteries, penetrating and traversing her territory. And when, in the coming years, her thrifty, industrious, intelligent and patriotic population encouraged and protected by the benign genius of Democracy, shall have improved her systems of agriculture, developed her mineral resources, established factories, her cotton mills with their million spindles, a pillar of cloud by day her blazing furnaces, a pillar of tire by night, built a net work of railroads sufficient for all the demands of her commerce and the convenience of her people, caused her horu of plenty to be full and overflowing, and guneral public education to encircle her brow as a laurel chaplet.

who shall say that Alabama will not become the brightest star in tbs constellation of the Union, the most substantial column in the Parthenon of Liberty? This glorious consummation is the grand mission of the Democracy. And in view of the start it has taken, and the progress it has made, it does seem that it ought to hive encouragement from all, and opposition by none. All the people are piotected in all their civil and political rights, the burdens of governmen, are less seriously felt than formerly, and with a continuanoe of honest, economical and prudent administration, they will be lightened still more, and no check be suffered in our advancement. But notwithstanding the assurance which the present and past history of the Democratic and Conservative par ty gives of its future, and notwithstanding it has redeemed all the pledges it made when It came Into power again in 1874, we may expect and will doubt less have opposition. Our very pros perity win excite tne envy and allure the cupidity of Radicalism, and its half-brother, Independentism.

Tbe field is too Inviting, the temptation too great for Republican virtue to resist. liven as Satan Insinuated himself Into the bowers of Parajise, aud tempted man to bis fall, and Brought death into the world and all our woe," so will our unscrupulous adversary, wnic.n would nave thrust upon us the infamous Civil Rights Force Bill, re gard no place secure against Its pollut ing presence, nothing too stern! for its desecrating touch, it may not dare to present its Mokanna face unveiled, bnt may protrude it hydra bead in tbe tbin disguises Independent Ism, Mr. Henderson Mooretville, will run him for the Legislature in Limestone.

Bate tor Governor on platform which provides for paying tbe debt ot Tennessee at a leas rat of interest and principal than the at Jo men of the General assembly provide for. The convention was a very large and in telligent body of men. After the Adoption of what is called tbe low-credit platform, about one hundred of tbe delegate -bolted." These held a conference next day, agreed to stand by the present settlement, appointed an Executive Committee) for the State, and designated July 11, as a day on which to meet and nominate a candidate for Governor. We nave no disposition to interfere with the internal matters of our friends and neighbor In Tennessee, but we do think that all true democrat are called upon to accept the nomination of General Bate. It I specially natural that Democratic member of the Legislature who voted for tbe -'sixty and six" settlement (as we ourselves would have done) should oppose any other, revised settlement; but there is so val id reason why they should divide thf party and hand the State over again to Repnblicans.

The platform passed at Nashville, last Wednesday night, was passed after a prolonged, heated wrangle. Democratic members of the next Legislature will still be at liberty to represent the will and best interests of their people, under later and better Information, (if you chose to put It that way) and refuse to repeal the existing statute ttling tbe debt. This could not be called treason to the parly. To vote against the manly, earnest, pat riotic, love-inspiring nominee. General William a.

Hate, would certainly be a nearer approach to party disloyal ty. With the Balalaeaa a Mheea A recent corresiondcnt of the Nash ville American, hiding behind the anonymous signature of "Agricola" and still further concealing himself by tak ing pains not to give either the timeor place of his writing, concluded a letter which treated of tho State Convention as follows: "One of the most commendable fea tures of the convention was the ease and promptness with which it slaughtered "dark horses." A larfte array of these animals were tethered near the capitiil, impatiently awaiting the im portant crisis in the conflict, to snatch victory from the clutches of the wearied combatants. The countv of Limestone fought bravely to produce this crisis, but, alas, in vain. Out of all the sixty-live counties in Alabama, it was sadly remarked that not a single candidate, acceptable to the delegates from Limestone, could lie found." A later date of the American has a second letter anent this subject, sug gested and reasonably provoked by the first. This second letter is dated at Athens, June 19, and signed "Dele gate.

It certainly smacks a great deal less of concealment than the first. We make from this second letter the following extracts Mr. Prvor, however, was not a can didate, did not want the office, stopped newspapers trom urging him for the place, forbid delegates to offer his name in the convention, refused, on demand from various regions, to consent to take the nomination if tendered, remained at home attending to his private affairs, and this is probably the dark horse that haunted the mind, im- iienled the plans and aroused the vio lent resistance of our patriotic corres pondent. The hero in the "Georgia Scenes affords the only parallel to such dauntless courage." As "Delegate" draws to the close of his communication, he administers the following plump pounce "Mr. Editor, of such folly, short sightedness and iMilitical crime the Democratic party in the beautiful Ten nessee valiev lies heeding to-dav, and resurgam is soon to be inscribed over its mutilated body, it will have to be relieved of such butchers as the mod ern Agricola." It is known to us that Mr.

Prvor never gave encouragement to any movement on the part of his friends to bring him forward for Governor. The haste with which "Agricola" wiped out all trace of his own name and place and rushe-l into print, in another State, to administer an uncalled for, unwar ranted slap to one whom, in our opin ion, he does not understand, is not to be admired. It does not show any pro found affection even for those whose political fortunes he would probably like to see prosper. While we are on this subject we will take occasion to remark that it is not by any means the highest evidence of manhood to make anonymous personal flings. It is not the higl est degree, to be tempted by a sense of secure disguise to give utterance to thoughts that one would not publish over his own name.

The frequent abuses In this line that have come under the public eve, here about, have led us to make these re marks, which are not intended to be pointed with any personality, for we do not know any of the anonymous, doughty knights who have thus covered themselves with galvanized glory. We regard the suggestion made by Vox Populi" that we hold a primary to determine upon a candidate for con gress as unwise and, under the circumstances, not in the least practicable. Instead of having the anger and dis satisfaction incident to a primary, with many contending candidates, as we would have, we should meet in convention, nominate a man bv acclama tion and go back to our homes deter mined to elect bun. Ihere is a man who can easily thus be elected. Ol (Mute lotaartaaee.

If it is, some one of the ri'sirters will, doubtless, catch it on the fly, anil chum it as his personal property. As to the murderer himself the editor says "He told us he had no hope from the Court in Banc, and, in fact, since lie has seen clearly what his fate would be, lie has toned down and bei-ome much more quiet.
