nOuncc ~ Platform.
MILWAUKEE, WIS, September 2l.-The
Trades Assembly nominated George b.
Goodwin for Congress. Mr.. Goodwin is n
Republican but has strong Greenback pro-
clivities and will not be endorsed by the
Republicans. AS the Senate will undoubt-
edly be Democratic there will be three
cornered fight in this district, i'll which all
the chances are in favor OF the Republican
candidate. The platform of the Trades
Assembly is strongly socialistic, saying:
The alarming development and aggression
OF aggregated wealth which, unless checked,
will inevitably lead to the pauperization
and hopeless degradation OF the toiling
masses, renders it imperative il we desire
to enjoy the blessings of life that
a check should be placed upon
its power and upon the unjust
accumulation, and system adopted which
will secure to the laborer the fruits Of his
toll and this much desired object can only
be accomplished by the thorough unitica-
ton OF labor and the united efforts OF those
who obey the Injunction, that "by the
sweat of thy brow shall thou eat breadH
The trades and labor organizations OF Mil
wankec have determined to place work
ingman's ticket in the field with the view
OF securing to the organization the power

The rebel entertainments at kafr-el-Dwar,

LONDON, September 21.-The Times on
the SueZ Canal declares that in an age
when control of a nation over the arms OF
the sea passing through or commanded by
their territory, is being everywhere abol-
ished, it is impossible that we can allow the
directors of a company to arrogate powers
as extensive as were ever claimed by Den
mark over the Sound. The naturalization
of the Suez Canal in its reasonable sense,
is understood to mean that it shall be re-
garded as an arm OF the sea. There is no
question of the enlargement of the canal or
the construction of new one. The prac-
tical question just now is, how to secure
ourselves in case OF complication which
may possibly arise, against being thwarted
by D. Lesseps. Tie subject of the canal
will, we believe, seriously engage the at
tcntiou of the government.
CAIRO, September 21.-About two hun
dred thousand pounds sterling was taken
from the treasury by Arabi Pasha. Eigh-
teen thousand we're discovered at the war
Office.
PoRT SAID, September 2I.-Nearly all
the garrison of Fort Ghemileh fled before
the surrender. Gunboats have gone to
down their arms. Abdallah Pasha and
Aboulat Pasha, with small escort, have
gone in the direction OF Cairo.
CA1Ro, September 2l.-Arabi Pasha and
accomplices, military and civil, will be
tried by court martial. The officials
and troopers OF Soudan and upper Egypt
will proifer loyalty to the Khedive. Thirty
six prisoners of war escaped from the cita-
del by rope. Abdallah Pacha's negotiations
relativesto the surrender of Damietta, are
regarded as intended only to gain time. 1t

The IForld considers Folger respeeta-

publicans could nominate, though he has
never shown much executive ability.
Truth says: "F olger must make defen-
siye campaign, and the key OF the situation
rests with the Democrats"
. The Star considers Folger's greatest
weakness is in the fact that he cannot eE-
list the favor of single anti-monopolist

ATLANTA, September. 21.-There is ex-
element at Athens over the mortal stab
bing of Randell Brown, colored, by Mat
Davis, the colored postmaster, at Athens,
and strong supporter OF Congressman
Speer. Brown is an advocate of the cleo
ton of Allen D. Gambler, Democratic nomi-
nee. Both negroes have taken lively
hand in the political contest. At Speer
meeting Monday night, Davis applied q
low epithet to Brown, adding he had sold
his vote to the Democrats and should not
be recognized by his old family: Tuesday
after the mte.ing Davis and Brown met
and got into a dispute over the offensive
language of Davis. A scuffie followed and
Davis fatally stabbed Brown. Davis is
