Third District Politics.

Special TO the indianapolis Journal.
SEYMOUR May 12.-The Third district congress
sional Democratic convention will be held at
North Vernon on the 18th inst. If the hand that
shaped the Third Indiana district intended to en-
brace a long line of Democratic congressional as
pirants it was the hand of an artist in that par
ticular, but the only gentlemen whose names are
likely to agitate the convention are Hon. Jonas
G. Howard, of Clarke; Hon. S. NJ. Stockslager,
of Harrison and Hon. Jason b. Brown, of Jack
SON. 1t had been the understanding that Mr.
Stockslager would not be candidate for re-
election. He.is at least maneuvering 1t is the
ambition of Mr.. Browns life to occupy a seat in
Congress, and he realizes that in few days
his political star will either shine with
increasing splendor or 'darlzle in the trackess
void" 1t is evident that Mr.. Brown
and Mr.. Stockslager are aiming to unite their
forces at the proper time to defeat Mr.. Howard.
Mr.. Brown has made no effort to secure the del
egatious in Mr.. Stockslagers strong counties,

of Jennings county, will be chairman
of the convention The selection of North Yer

order to secure the Jennings county delegation
for Mr.. Brown it was understood that Jennings
county should have the nomination for joint SEN

it was understood, would favor a court house re-

Frazier, leading farmer Of that neighborhood.
Both men had been in this city the previous day,
and drank freely. In consequence. Frazier was
sick on Sunday, and in the evening sent for
Hupp, who resides near to come and visit him.
Hupp complied. He entered the room, advanced
to the bed where Frazier was lying, and spoke to
him, when the latter, without replying, drew
thirty eight caliber revolver from under his pill
low and fired at Hupp the ball passing through
his heart. Frazier has been arrested and lodged
in the county Jail, in this city, to-day. He re-
fuses to talk about the affair, and no reason can
be assigned for his murderous assault The par

SPEECH BY GLADSTONE.
The Prime Minister Takes the Floor i'll De-
fense of His ErYnfian Policy

The Prime Minister Takes the Floor i'll De-
Tense of His Egyptian Policy.
LONDON May Fin the Commons Sir
Michael Hicks Beach, Conservative. moved
again his motion of May 2. that the
House regrets that the course of the gov
eminent has not tended to promote the sue
cess of General Gordon's mission; that steps to
secure his personal safety are disregarded. This
action was received with prolonged cheers.
Mr.. Gladstone. rising to speak in defense of
the governments course, was greeted with hearty
and long continued applause. He congratulated
Sir Michael Hicks Beach on his forcible speech but
strenuously denied that the government had de-
serted General Gordon. The demand of the
honorable gentleman he insisted, amounted
to a war of conquest against people struggling
to be free. The war which the Mahdi was wag
ing was war for freedom. 1t is that which the
honorable gentleman wishes England to put
down Continuing. the Prime Minister denied
that the government had failed in one
single act that not for the safety
and success of General Gordon The
charges which the honorable gentleman
had just preferred against the government are
absurd. They can only be accounted for by his
lack of knowledge of the true facts The real
object of the motion, whatever may be its os
tensible aim is to displaee the government
Dir. Gladstone then referred to the official dis
patches to prove General Gordon's security and
Justification of the steps the government had
taken. He eontended that the charges had
failed to note the fact that General
Gordon had orders to resort to mill
tary force if peaceful measures should
not prove successful. Il have a duty Mr.
Gladstone further said, ito General Gordon and
a duty to my country. Both will be performed
despite the scoff of the honorable gentleman at
the climatic danger and difficulty. 1t may be
the duty of the government to plant British
force in that terrible country, but the govern
ment declines to be driven on without consider
ing the blood, the honor, and the treasure of
England, and the government also declines to
enter upon vast scheme of conquest to please a
captains opposition

of the Wabash are not sufficient to meet

interest to be defaulted If this default is
permitted to continue for a period Of six
