alguuo .en Il lG abinete hasta otono.
Los debates % las Cortes demues-
tran que el Sc. Cdnovas tiene mayo
rfas compactas y firmes en- las CANA
ras y que el general Martinez Cam
pos desaprutba Ia actitud violenta
de sus amigos militares dispuestos a
echar mano de todos los medios, bue-
nos 8 malos para derribar al minis
terio.
Ri ,Rey Alfonso acaba de dar una
lecciou severa q los descontentos mi
litares, diciendo 4 uno con altivez y
aspereza Si Sc intentase algun
motin en- las GALES no vacilare en-
ponerme personalmente al frente de
mis- tropas y guardias para probar
que soy rey Constitutional. Quiero
que todos, grandes y pequenos, en-
tieadan que nadie ha de perturbar
impunemente la paz del reino."
La situacion para las oposiciones
smuY dificil, pues la corruption
electoral LENA las C6rtes de d6ciles
mayorfas, y Ia dnica probabilidad
que tienen los liberales de llegar al
poder esttiba en- que ell Sr. Canovas
dimita untariamente para evitar
que Sc e.uen en- brazos de los demo-
cratas revolucionarios de CASTELAR, y
Martos.
Anoche terminaron los debates
en- ell Congreso, despues de tres dias
de un fastuoso duelo de oratoria en-
tre ell gabinete y los llberales diuas-
ticos, 10 que ha causado mucha sen-
sacion, pues los varios incidentes
ocnrridos derralnaron mucha luz So
bre la situacion politica de Espana.
En- uno de eilos, en- nombre de los
iinasticos hberales coligados bajo
Martinez Campos y Sagasta, este dl-
timo declare que apelaban al Rey
Alfonso como ell Inico medic legal
de obtener campo igual & impartial
juicio para eHos, pnes los abusos,
los vicios cronicos y la corruption de
las elecciopes en- Espana que datan
de medic siglo, no dejaban camino
para llegar al poder sino ell de la
fuerza 6 ell de la apelacion al regia
prerogativa. Rechaz6 este argu-
mento el Sr. Canovas declarando que
la actual mayorla habia sido tan IL
bremente elegida como cualquiera
otra en- Espana desde 1886, y no
podia ser dlsuelta durante ell termi-
no de la legislature. Pr6ximo 4 ter
minar ell debate un diputado ultra
montana, ell Sr. Pid4l, dljo maliciosa-
mente que el Sc adheria al voto de
con6anza del Gabinete pues consi,
deraba que todas las masas conser-
vadoras y aun las honradas masas
carlistas del Norte de Esp ma deblan
coligarse su vez contra la revolu-
cion disfrazAda de " liberalismo di-
nastico. Surgio inmediatamente
una escena de ruido y confusion.
D. t>dos lados Sc gritaba 6rden, y
aun las galerlas apoyaban a la IL,
q'lierda en- sus energicas protestas.
Et Sr. Canovas y ell presideute del
Congreso trataron de apaciguar al
orador ultramontano, pe:o este Sc
puso aun mas agresivo.
Entonces ell Sr. Sagasta en- uno
de los mas esplendidos y energicos
discursos que Sc oyeron en- las Cor
tes espanolas, vindico al liberalismo
contra las calumrias ultranontanas,
retando al Gabinete q que dijera 81
aceptaba la alianza con ell carlismo,
y declaraudo fnalmente por su par
te que antes que este Sc haria repu-
blicano. Pidal y la mayoria, que lie
aplaudi6, Sc mostrarou muy satisf>-
chos de las declaraciones de Sagasta.

The stock speculation to-day had to contend not
only against the inherent weakness Of the coal
stocks but also against rumors Of probable railroad
wars both at the East aud West Particular stress
was Land upon an alleged disagreement about oil
rates (which probably has more or less foundation
In fact), and it was urged that this traffic was tho
most profitable portion Of the business of the
Eastern railroads There 10 no doubt that these
rumors. coming at this particular time. after
the market had had 80 large an advance. created
no little uneasiness and caused o good deal Of
realisng" And It Is probable that until after the
result of the meeting Of railroad officials to consider
the subject ia known the stock market will remain
feverish aud unsettled. But IL the managers. at .
time when they arc making such splendid returns
Of earnings now, precipitase war of rates. tho
public will draw Its own coneluslona concerning
the reasons.

The weekly Floridian. [volume] (Tallahassee, Fla.) 1867-19??, 1880-07-30

The Republicans of Hillsborough
county held ratification meeting at Tam
pa on the 10th instant, which was presided
over by DIR. II. r. Benjamin. The chair
man, Judge Magbee, w. w. Hooper,
Isaac Howard and Mac. Hamilton pre-
sented as a committee resolutions eek
pressive of the sentiments of the Republi-
cans of Hillsborough county," which were
adopted, the report says, unanimously"
The resolutions ratify the nomin atoms of
Garfield and Arthur, but, in effects con-
denim those made at Gainesville in the
following words:
6. ResOlced, That it is the opinion OF the Re-
publicans of HillsbOrough county that nothing
has 80 much injured the party in this State as the
nomination of men who have no interest in the
State and who have obtained their nomination
by working on the sympathy Of the inexperi-
enced masses; and that we do hereby pledge
ourselves to use all honorable means to correct
the evil.
This is a severe thrust at DR.. Conover ;
but then, as the DIR. says, the Republicans
who object to his candidacy are only
SUTe-neaus ana don amount TO much
any way. lie has a curt manner of dis
posing Of all opposition to him in his own
ranks, while be is not 80 simple" as to
be ignorant of its strength. The resolu-
tion quoted above is equivalent TO mott
ication that his vote in Hillsborough will
amount to little or nothing.
The weekly Floridian. [volume] (Tallahassee, Fla.) 1867-19??, 1880-07-30

Nail the Lie.

A friend living u remote part OF our county,
writes that Il Is reported In this section that
Hon. w. d. Bloxham sold out TO the Radical
party eight years ago, when candidate against
Hart, and there are some people silly enough 10
believe it." The manufacturer and retailer of
this base charge is q liar and calumniatOr. While
we do not think it worth q denial yet the de-
PRAYED author and vendor may have influence
enough to poison the minds Of his neighbors !;
and we nail the lie to the counter. and ask the
editor of the Tallahassee FLoRrDIAN, to whom
all the official records in the case are accessible
and who Ia in daily communication with Judge
lawyers, who conducted the contest on the part
of Governor BIOxham, to give this malicious
falsehood such public treatment as they may
think IL deserves
The Sam does well to snail the lie to
the counter" No one ever heard of it
before and the party who originates it
now has simply evolved it from mag
goty brain. Hart was the Republican
candidate for Governor in 1872 and Blox-
ham was the Democratic candidate. 1t
was the year of the unfortunate Greeley
campaign and the struggle ended disas-
trously all along the line" Captain Blox-
ham, however, as he always does when a
candidate, made vigorous but unavail-
ing canvass, though he polled larger
vote by over $500 than had up to that
time been given to any candidate of any
party. There was no contest in the courts
over the result, as there had been two
years previously when Bloxham was
counted out, and that before the Return
ing Board was as to the construction to
be given to certain provisions of the cleo
ton laws. The defeat was patent fact,
no matter how accomplished, whether by
ballot-box stufiiDg or by honest voting,
and Bloxham had nothing to sell or was
CucIc auyCuIng cor the victorious candI-
date to buy. The story is simply ridicu-
lous, as unjust TO Hart who is dead as it
is maliciously false towards the other who
will be indicated from all ISLANDERS in
November by a triumphant election to
the chief magistracy Of the State. So
mote it be.
