WASHINGTON, 0ctobea S.-A very prom

ested in the Iron business in A!absma,
writes to gentleman 10 this city to the
effect that never before have business men
Of bis section Of the South felt such .
deep interest Ia The result Of presIden.
tial election. The gentleman Is Demo.
crat Of the new Echool, which Is against a
continuation Of iibe Bourbon rule as Ii nov
exists down there. He takes the ground
that while he Is not by any means In

domination as introduced by the Republi.
can party right alter the close OF the war,
be still maintains that the war Of political
ACTIONS now going on there
:! almost Is bad In It's effects on
the material intereits Of the Southern
country. For this reason he says the
election OF Gen. Hancock, with the poli,i
cal Ahairs controlled, as they are, by its
worst e!enents, would DO most dlsastf fous,
10 business pointo view. With men OF his
class, he argues, the question Of canli.
iates enters very little Into consideration.
What they want is peace aud security, 50
that capital and emigration will come 10
the South aud help develope lis great In.
iustrial resources. To DO this the Demo.
cratic parry, as understood by his people.
must be destroyed. Aud u the people oi
he North will only realize this by the
sleetion Of Garfield, the political troubles
y this section will not last much longer.
A new election will come 10 the front. A
new set oi political leaders will take the
cad, and the business interests Of the
North and South In a few years will be as

though the whole country by spontaneous
action had come to hear Gibson. About
one hundred horsemsn with torches, from

hundreds on foot with torches. The pro-
cession was over one mile long, with two
bfass bands aud two military bands. Not
less than 10000 strangers were here. The

for one hour, making a most telling
speech, which was loudly cheered, bul
when the grand old patriotic soldier and

wild with hurrAhs. He spoke as he only
