MADISON'S DEMOCRACY.
Gen. Bullock, Senator Call and Other
Prominent Men Speak.

Gen. Bullock, Senator Call and Other
Prominent Men Speak.
MADISON, FLA, Oct. 2s.-Friday was a
red-etter day in the history of the Madison
democracy. Perhaps larger crowds have
turned out on similar occasions, but never
was there more genuine enthusiasm. The
independent movement Is dead in Madi-
son county. The procession, composed
of mounted men, the carriage with the
distinguished speakers, the wagon with
the splendid band from Quitman, ETC., was
over a mile along, and the number of
mounted men alone was estimated at over
one thousand. Every man carried the
famous bandana. The speakers stand was
handsomely decorated, as was also several
private residences, and the stores were all
closed. The procession was under
command of Capt. c. B. Ashley
with A z. Fralegh, +. Epps and
C. H. Dickinson as aids, and reflected great
credit upon them. After the parade was
over, Maj w. H. Dial, chairman of the
Madison county democratic executive COM
mittee, called the meeting to order.
Livingston Vann, Esq, was elected chair
man. Mr.. Vann made short, spicy
speech, and INTRODUCED Gen. Robert Bui-
lock, candidate for congress from the
Second district. The speeches were
all good and attentively listened to.
The other speakers we're Senator WIKI Call,
Presidential Elector B. II. Palmer, j. NJ.
Barrs, and Theodore Randall, candidate for
state senator. The speaking lasted until
about O'Clock p. M, but everybody left In
a good humor. The speakers all made men
tion OF the fact that everywhere they went
they met with grand demonstrations, but
Madison county's surpassed them all.
The citizens party have their pow-wow
tomorrow week.

SACKVILLE UNDER FIRE.
NEARLY EVERY LONDON PAPER
LOOKS FOR HIS RECALL.

The Inexcusable Nature of His
Blunder Almost Universally Admit
ted-The London Chronicle Declares
it Impossible for the British Govern
ment to Yield to American Pressure.
LONDON, Oct. 2S-Lord Salisbury had a
private conference with Minister Phelps at
Hatfield house to-day in regard to the Sack
vile affair.
ONLY BLUNDER.
LONDON, Oct. %, A. M.-The Ddity
NetoS says: Lord Sackville has done moth
ing of which an honest man need be
ashamed, but there are blunders which are
worse than crimes"
THE MISTAKE INEXCUSABLE.
The Daily Telegraph says: Nothing can
excuse the incontinence of Lord Sackville's
pen except his transparent good faith and
candor. He cannot, however, after such a
betise he allowed to embroil the two
nations"
RECALL NOT ASKED FOR.
The Standard says: at would be incor-
rect to say that the American government
has already asked for the recall of Lord
Sackville, but it has taken step little short
of that extreme measure. 1t does not follow
that expulsion will be resorted to either at
ali or at once The matter. however, is a
delicate one. 1t would be best for Lord
Sackviile to resign in order to avoid further
unpleasantness."
SPIRIT OF OPPOSITION.
The Chronicle says: 1.-The singular folly
of Lord Sackville could hardly be matched
for iudiscretion, but it is manfestly i'm
po sible for the government to yield to
pressure such as New York paper declares
will be applied. When the excitement is
calmed it may be found necessary to trans
fer Lord Sackville"
HIS RETENTION IMPOSSIBLE.
The Times says: "It seems to be certain
that the American government has taken
steps that will render it impossible for Lord
Sackville to remain at " ashington. We
are not prepared to censure Lord Sackville.
A British minister, whether at Washington
or elsewhere, must be an English gen.
teman, and may be forgiven if he
is not up to all the dirty tricks of American
politicians. II the Americans were not in
the thick of a political struggle, it would
be impossible that some of them should not
enter protest against the undignitied vul-
garity and interested unfairne s shown by
both parties"

Journals Omaha correspondent telegraphs
tha Patrick Eagan, ex-president of the
