the Proteetorate.

LONDON, May 3l.-Gladstoue has n
article in the MinkeaA Century, entitled
aI.iberty In the East and West," dealing
with the 'current political questions. IL
the course OF the article reference Is made
to the alleged intention Of the govern
ment to assume Q Protectorate over Ash
atic.Turkey. Gladstone opposes any
step Of this kind and says that such =
Protectorate could hardly end otherwise
than in the total destruction Of the Tur.
kish Power and its disappearance from
the face Of the earth.
LONDON, May 3l.-A Belgrade dis

been strongly reinforced n 8 measure OF
precaution.

POLITICAL NOTES.
Alabama Democratic Convention
Tho Platform Adopted.

MONTGOMERY, ALA, May 3l.-The
Democratic Convention adjourned sine die
last night. The following Is the plat
form:
The Democratic and conservative peo-
ple Of Alabama in convention assembled
re. asserting the principles adopted in
our Convention OF 1876 do resolve and de-
clare thst the Democratic and Conserva-
tive party Of law and order Is the only
party Of the country, and to ia patriotic
and unceasing efforts under the bleesing
Of God is due the defeat OF the Radical
leaders in their wicked designs maniies-
ted from the inception Of the reconstruc-
tion 10 destroy the peace, happiness and
prosperity Of both races in the South BY
involving them in ceaseless turmoil and
collision.
That the financial distress, extending
In many localities to misery and want,
is the necessary outgroWth Of the proai.
gate expenditures, fraudulent practices
and class legislation, which was the
marked course Of the Republican party.
That by creating new and useless Offices
and endowing those already created with
princely perquisites, inconsistent with
the simplicity Of our system Of govern
ment, they have organized an army
OF officials now attaining the strength
which Daniel Webster warned rs forty
years ago would endanser the liberties
Of our people.
We denoupce the methods, the meas
ures and men who are responsible for
them as unworthy the support of an hon.
est and free people.
We congratulate the whole people OF
Alabama upon the reign OF good will and
conciliation-the sense Of liberty and
security which peryade the entire limits
Of the state-and while we renew our
pledges OF protection TO all the colored
people, We recognize and hold essential
Thai, without abridging the rights Of any
class, these great results have been
achieved and can alone be maintained by
. union Of the great governing race-the
white people ot the land.
That Il Is the purpose Of the Demo-
cratic and Conservative party Of this
State to preserve inyiolate its obligations
to the people and to the bona 6de credi'
tors Of the State.

Decline In Prices.
LONDON, May Sl.-A dispatch 10 the
Times from Liverpool says that serious
trouble in the grain trade is feared In
conseouence Of the heavy decline In

LIVERPOOL, May Sl.-The leading
grain circular says that trade at the Bri-

fully a shilling per quarter was generally
conceded, without inducing buyers TO

Maize met with slow demand at a

Reported Interview with the
President NJ Gettysburg Dis
credited.

WAsHrNeroS, May 30.-The reported
interview with the President at Gettys-
burg Yesterday, in regard to the Potter
Investigating Committee, is pronounced
at the Executive Mansion to be predicated
on very slight foundation, II II has any
basis at all. Il is said that the President
was so continuously occupied with cere-
monies and services connected with hia
visit that there WM no time for inter
views, and besides language Is attributed
to him which he could not have uttered
under any circumstances, especially as he
now, as during the electoral counting OF
FloridR and LouiSiLaa, takes no part In
the question, being content 70 leave the
investigation where Il Ii now lodged, and
10 await the result without iuterterenee
on his part in any way whatever. II is
also said at the ErecatiSe MAnsion that
Postmaster General Keys open letter
was not submitted to the President
and Cabinet before It was furnished for
the press and that its preparation and
publication rested with himself alone.
