ACTION OF THE SENATE.

There is little doubt :hat the de .
bate in the Senate will lead TO such
notifications of the rider on the
army bill as may be shown to be
necessary to accomplish the put-
poseto keep troops from the polls
IL anticipation of disorders. and to
do no more than this, and with
such notifications, the President
will scarcely venture on veto Of a
measure which was approved by
the leaders of his party ut the last
session, and now again, and the
tac&lng of which to the army bill
has been declared by Gen. Gan field
himself TO be an orderly and con-

Presidential Talk.

New York, Sept. 15.-The World
prints an interview with Congressman
Chalmers in North Carolina. He thinks
Tilden a sharp, unprincipled, tricky
lawyer. They did not want is vote for
him in Mississippi the last time, but
felt bound to support the ticket This
time he would be still more unpopular.
The convention should nominate a
man who stood a fair chance of elec-
tion. With Tilden> there would be
no such prospect.
I'VE should nominate man of un-
doubted loyalty and unimpeachable
record. Hancock is such man."
During the war, while Conkling, Blaine
and Sherman were staying at home,
and Tilden was doing worse by virtual
ly espousing the cause of the south in a
northern state, Hancock was sealing
his loyalty with his blood. After the
war he endeared himself to the south
by declaring that civil power was great
er than military and refused to carry
arms any longer against the southern
people.
Chalmers expects to join Lamar on
an electioneering tour in Mississippi.

OUR SHIP CANAL.
The Project Assuming Shape-Grant's
Acceptance.

Acceptance.
New York, Sept. 10.-A Worlds
Washington special says: Admiral Am
men was in the city to-day. Yesterday
he found awaiting him at his country
home, sixteen miles from here, letter
from Gen. Grant, formally and over his
signature, declaring his interest in the
Nicaragua canal enterprise and his will
lingness to accept the presidency of the
American company. Grant writes that,
latter careful consideration of the mat
ter, he has concluded that company
properly formed and influential enough
to secure the needful concessions from
the Nicaraguan government should, in
his opinion, be successful, and he is
willing to lend his name and to devote
his energies to the advancement of such
an enterprise" He approves entirely
Of the route, and agrees with Admiral
Ammen that it is the only sensible one.
The Nicaraguan government, Admiral
Ammen says, is willing to make all
reasonable concessions. It has been
spurred on to say as much by the scare
it had during the Lesseps congress, and
he thinks that on that account there
will never be a better time than this to
clinch the matter. He is highly elated
over Gen. Grants letter.

A FEW FIGURES
FROM way DOWN IN MAINE.
A Republican Victory That Heralds
Future Sussess for the Ma
tional Party.

New York, Sert. 10.-The following
are the very latest figures from Maine:
The election vote cast for governor in
376 towns is 124 ,274, divided as follows:
Davis, 62,552; Smith, 1924; Garcelon,
1859; scattering, 249.
The same ratio of increase of the
vote in the towns not heard from, as
in those whose vote has been received,
would carry the total vote of the state
at the last election nearly to 139, 900,
against the total vote of last year of
126, ,169, and an equal ratio of republi-
can gains in these 123 towns, would
leave Davis lacking from 800 to 500
votes of an election by the people.

POLITICAL.

New York State Democratic Convention.
Syracuse, Sept. 10.-The tickets for
admission to the democratic state con-
vention were not. issued until nearly
noon, consequently it was long after
noon before the delegates assembled in
large numbers, Tammany evidently
being In the ascendant. Gen. Baldy
Smith was greeted with applause when
he appeared in the hall, and the en-
trance of John Kelly, chief of Tam
many, was the signal for loud and long
extended applause. Augustus Schell,
Purcell, chairman of the state COM
mittee, Erastus Brooks and other anti
Robinson leaders were greeted with
demonstrations of favor. The conven-
tion was called to order by the chair
man Of the state committee. State
Senator John c. Jacobs, was made
temporary chairman. Jacobs, in taking
the chair, said he would 80 act as to
promote an early and harmonious con-
clusion. One of the great questions to
be presented to the people this fall Is
whether we deserve success. Our
deliberations here will have good
effect in the settlement of this issue.
If in the choice of candidates and in
the construction of a platform we do
not forget to indorse the great reform
accomplished by the democratic admin
istration in this state, and by the DEM
ocratic congress as well, we shall COM
mand the approval of the people.
A recess was had, and on reassem
bling speeches were made advocating
harmony and unity of action. Tilden
received sly thurst which was received
by the convention in a manner indicat-
ing his waning strength. The conven-
tion then adjourned until $50 to-mor-
row morning.

the English mission to Afghanistan OBJ
literates the scientigc frontier between
that country and India and makes nee
essary the occupation Of the whole Of
Afghanistan by the British. But this
is incompatible with the assurance
given by England to Russia, with
whom there must be an understanding
in regard to the measures of satisfac-
tion to be taken by England.

by the partition of Afghanistan SO as
to bring the English and Russian do

Prince Gortschakoff's interview with
its correspondent at Baden, disclaimed
the slightest concern at the attacks of
the Berlin newspapers. He had always
deprecated any undue weakening of
France, and hence Bismark's hostility
to him. The friendship of the Russian
and German emperors would certainly
suffice to smooth any slight differences
which NAV arise.
