CRooKsToN, Mimi, April 10, 18S4.-The
Nelson wing of the grand old party held
their city caucus last evening and elected
delegates to the county convention. After
the caucuses adjourned the delegates met at
a saloon on Broadway to have love feast.
The outside world heard nathing Of the pro-
ceediugs at the feast, and only surmise the
character from the fact that the saloon keeper
was fined $25 to-day for harboring such com
pany after II o'clock. That liquor dealer
made the first sacrifice in the northwest for
the grand old party. 2. S.

A DrsTTNG UIsRED NAN IDENTIFIED

A DTSTTNG UISRED MIN IDENTIFIED
During the past few weeks the world and
the readers Of the GLOBE have been startled
by an occasional telegrapical allusion to
''Gen. Denver'' as the coming Democratic
dark horse for president. It was announced
that he had established literary bureau for
the purpose of setting these para
graphs afioat but he apparently as
sumed that "Gen. Denver" was so much
of a national parsonage that the mention Of
his name was a sufficient introduction.
When Franklin Pierce was nominated by
the Democrats for President in 1852, there
was general profane remark, "Who in he'll
is Frank Pierce.n The response that he was
not located Gin he'll" but came from New
Hampshire, seems to have quoted the public
pulse sufficiently to have secured
his election. The mention of Gen.
Denver's name appears to have provoked
a comment similar to that accorded Pierce,
and he has accordingly extended the efforts
Of his ''bureau'' to acquaint the world with
the fact that he is an "Ohio man. He &C
companies his biography in Cincinnati pa
per with an Illustration of himself which is
evidently designed to give him a
Tildenish cast of countenance. A
distinguished member of the Mime
sofa legislature from Rice county was
in the habit of giving his ''dime biography
to the reporters in the forcible terms: 81
tend horse in the summer and come to
the legislature in winter.'' The distinguish
ed "Gen. Denver appears to have heard of
our Minnesota biography, and this is the way
he is done up in the Cincinnati paper:
General James W. Denver is a resident of
Ohio He is one of the largest farmers of the
state and is extensively engaged in raising stock.
During the winter he practices law in the city of
Washington, D. c.
1t is cheerful to obtain even this amount
of information relative to the coming dark
horse, and we hasten to give the readers Of
the GLOBE the necessary knowledge to enable
them to appreciate the future efforts of Gen.

WITH the active cooperation of United

CATION to the Republican National Convep-
ton has been secured for Arthur. The sec
ond choice of this delegation is said to be
John A. Logan. The delegation was secured
for Arthur by the use of patronage, dis
pensed by the marshal who is charged with
being very dishonest man, and who, but
for Arthnr's intervention would be under
arrest for criminal malfeasance in office.
Months ago grave changes were preferred
against him at Washington, but they were
ignored by Executive command, for the rea-
son that he was needed to secure delega-
ton to Chicago for Arthur. The President
has lost vastly more than he has gained

CURRENT COMMENT.

In the memoirs of Thurlow Weed, published
by his grandson, is given an interesting state
ment made by Mr.. Weed himself, which declares
the secret of the accumulation of the modest
fortune he acquired as the editor, and for quar-
ter of a century part owner of the Albany EUen
ina Journal. This narrative is as follows :
"When the Journal was established, and for sew
eral subsequent years, L gave my time and
thoughts wholly to the advancement of our
cause. Aware of my Indifference to pecuniary
matters my friends, Seward and Whittlesey,
looked after my worldly affairs. At the instance
of those gentlemen the proprietors of the Jour
nal increased my salary as editor annually from
$3.50 in 1880 to $4,000 in 1888. Subsequently,
when the Journal became the state paper and 1
partner, Mr. King kindly became my pecuniary
guardian, taking the same care of my interests
as of his own. Under his auspices, during the
next twenty years, he saw, as he used to say
with much qualification, 'the acorn grow into an

MASSACRE.

PARIS, April 21.-A Fguro correspondent
at Cairo sends the following details of the
recent Shendy massacre. Three hundred
Egyptian troops and 600 non-combatants,
preferring to make the hazardous attempt to
march to Berber to starving inside Shendy,
set out from the latter place on the 18th inst.
part of the number went slowly by steamer
down the river, while others marched along
the rive bank. When two hours march
from Shendy they were attacked by the
Arabs, and after q short fight all the troops
excepting a few were massacrad. The
Arabs afterward captured Shendy. The
Egyptian troops there had discarded their
and uniforms, in hope Of being spared. A
few, however, escaped the general massacre.
Two thousand men, women and children
were slaughtered, many OF them refugees
from Khartoum.

The Times publisees interviews with proha-
inent Irshmen in the French capital, among
them Patrick Casey, of the 1HoHtelr UHigeT-
sal, who is strongly in favor of the dynamite
policy, and upholds the Isish inyincibles in
the doctrines they avow and the course they
pursue. He declares it probable that the
dynamite policy viii be extended to the
blowing up of passenger steamers and mer-
chantmen, thus running E1Sflands COM
merce. James Stephens, formerly fenian
head center, condemns the principles and
practices of the dynamiters, and advocates
an armed revolution. The continuance Of
the dynamite policy, he thinks means GER
tain death to revolutionary agitation during
the present generation, and perhaps forever.
1t may besides this lead to the expulsion of
Irishmen from England. Jno. OLeary,
formerly editor of the Irish People, likewise
disapproves of the dynamite policy
on the ground of its mex
pediency and criminal character. He
favors open rebellion. War between Eli
gland and Russia, he thinks, would give the
Irish chance to strike an effective blow.
He was sorry to say the people in America
were not adverse to the employment of dy-
Mantle. Father Hogan of the st. Sulpice

Ireland no good, but ALLEVIATE from the
