Morrissey's Illness...Fears Of his
Death.

New York, Jan. 1G.--The friends and
constituents of Hon. John Morrissey are
at last alarmed lest he should never re-
turn alive to the city.
Since the beginning of his illness varl-
GUS reports have been circulated tending
to show that he was recovering; but
these favorable reports have been repeat
cdly offset by news of further re'apsess,
which demonstrates that the Senator'S
condition is extremely critical.
He is at present in Jacksonville, ria:
where he went upon the advice OF hi
physicians. He has recently been joined
hy Mrs. Morrissey. Whether or not
however, the Senator returns to this CIT,
or remains in Florida, there is authorlt!
for stating that he certainly will not bt
able to take his seat in the Senate Cham
Der during this session.
DISPATCHES received in this city as lat
as 3 o'clock to-day express but little hop
of the Senator's recovery. -.
Certain friends of his here have thi
afternoon been summoned from this cit
TO ioin him at Jacksonville, as it is fea'
ed that his death will not much longt
be delayed. They left for there to-nlgh

NASHVILLE, August 5.-Morris, Glenn,
Power, and Miller, defeated candidates on
the Peoples Independent ticket, to- day filed
protests with the coroner against the issu-
ance of certificates to their successful Demo-
cratic rivals, on the ground of fraud and ir-
regularity in the election. 1t is believed,
however, that they will not be able to make
out their case. Glenn and Morris laid their
protests before the governor against his is

told them that he could not take their pro-
tests into consideration, because having no
power to investigate election. His powers in
respect to elections were purely of ministe-

issue commissions upon all properly-authen-
ticated certificates of election. The governor
will issue commissions to the officers elect

struction to sewers and cellars of business

it resembled rapidly flowing river. Hun
dreds of sparrows were killed by hail. Shade

BOLIVAR, Tenn, August 5.-Our county
convention met to-day and appointed dele
gates to the gubernatorial convention, and
adopted resolution in opposition to repudia-

Young addressed the convention in appropri-

appreciation of our people. He attacked the
papers that have been assaulting him for his

of said charges. The people are for Young,

MONTGOMERY, ALA, August 5.-The
Democratic State ticket polled nearly or quite
one hundred thousand majority. Perhaps a
half-dozen Independents and Radicals are
elected to the legislature, which secures a
Democratic majority in the legislature of at
least one hundred and twenty. Many ne
groes voted the Democratic ticket. The cleo
ton was quiet all over the State.
The Democracy on Top in kentucky.
LEXINGTON, August 5. The election
passed off quietly. The entire Democratic
ticket for county officers was elected by ma
jorities ranging from four hundred to fifteen
hundred and fifty. The most exciting contest
was for county judge, resulting in eight hun
dred and thirty-nine majority for kinkead,
Democrat.

BATON ROUGE, August 5.-The Democratic
State convention assembled to-day. General
Andrew S. Heron was chosen permanent
chairman. The nomination of state treas
urer will probably not be made until to-mor
row. Hon. J. 81. Acklen, a Democrat prom
inently connected with the late Washington
scandal, has been renominated by reclamation
to represent the third district in the forty
seventh congress.
The Illness special from Baton Rouge
says that the convention has COM
pleted permanent organization and
adjourned until noon tomorrow. The
committee on platform and resolutions will
then report and congressional nominations
will have been made. There is some excite
ment tonight over resolution by ]. D.
Houston, of Orleans, to expel four members
of the tenth ward, New Orleans delegation,
for offering to sell their votes. After an ex-
citing discussion a committee was appointed
to investigate the matter. Auditor
Junel and Secretary of State Strong are said
to be working against Major E. l.. Bourke,
who is a prominent candidate for state treas
urer. Very grave comments are made on the
fact of State officers taking such a part in a
State convention. 1t is generally understood
that the issue is on the funding board. They
do not want Bourke. The opposition to Ellis
in the second congressional district seems to
be deep and earnest. Elan will be repomi-
mated for congress in the fourth district.
