ENGLISH ELECTIONS.
Gladstonians Lucky in the Glamorsan-
shire Contest.

Gladstonians Lucky in the GIamorgan-
shire Contest.
LONDON, March 29.-The enormous Lib
eral losses shown by the result Of the cleo
ton in the Cover division of Glamorgan-
shire are due to a serious split in the Glad
stonian ranks upon the original nomina-
ton for the parliamentary seat. The
miners revolted against Sir Horace Dayey,
the first nominee, and nominated Mr..
Llewellyn as their candidate. Mr..
Davey, alarmed at this detection with
drew from the contest unhesitatingiy
explaing that he did so to avert Liberal
defect. The Whig section of the Gladston-
ians then divided in the new candidate,
Mr. David Randall, and many of them fol-
lowed the miners in support of Mr..
Llewellyn, who is noted Tory. The only
wonder is that the seat was not
lost TO the Gladstonians. and they
have reason 10 regard themselves as
extremely lucky to have elected
their candidate In view of the result, as
showing the danger OF putting up candi-
date who cannot command the full voting
strength of the party, together with the
danger of permanently in'pairing the par
ty's local influence, Mr.. Hardy, the Labor
candidate for the mid-Lanarkshire division,
will probably withdraw in favor of strong
er man.
The translation of General Boulanger's
cipher kilograms, showing him to have
been connected with movements of ex-
treneiy questionable character, leaves little
room for the Generals defense upon any
grounds. The telegrams show that he not
only gave orders TO his election agents, but
actually convened committee meetings to
nominate himself in vayious departments,
while at the same time he was
publicly denying any connection with
his candidacy and disclaiming any desire
to occupy a seat in the Chamber of Depu-
ties or have his name used as a candidate.
In spite of these disclosures. however, he has
a large following of men who insist that he is
the victim of jealous persecution and many
go so far as to assert that the kilograms are

Some person sent special dispatch from
Columbus, Tuesday night, to the New York
Tribune, in which we find the following:
Today at Springfield, in the Eighth dis
trict, ex-Speaker Keifer and William Law
renee. both devoted Sherman men, were de-
feated for delegates BY John Foos, of
Springfield, and Festus Walters, of Circle
vile. Lawrence has been, more than any
other man in Ohio, the advocate of Sher-
man, and wrote the recent Sherman biog-
raphy. He was defeated today overwhelm-
ingly.
1t being universally known that the edi-
tor of the Tribune is great personal and
political friend OF Blaine, the writer of the
dispatch supposed that it would please Mr..
Reid, but it certainly conveys totally false
impression. Messrs. Fo0s and Walters are
as good friends of Sherman as Is Judge
Lawrence, and either one of them will be
as effective in his behalf as heJudge could
have been. The Tribune'S heading to this
dlspatch-''Sherman's Friends Not Cho-
sen"-was written under misapprehen-
sion, and is, therefore, a mis-statement
The convention was for Sherman as our
candidate, heartily and unanimously; yet it
was at the same time enthusiastically
friendly to Blaine.

This. from Thursdays Dayton Journal,

This. from Thursdays Dayton Journal,
is true and forcible:
A queer political mistake was made In
the Eighth district in offering the name OF
Hon. William Lawrence for district dele
gate to the Chicago convention. He lived
in the same county from which the candi-
date for congress was taken, and in the
nature of things he was clearly unavaila.
BILE. The other counties naturally demand
ed a distribution of hon0rs. Clark county
was conceded one delegate. and Pickaway
had a title TO the second delegate. Good
managers ought to have foreseen that re-
suit. We don't understand how an old
campaigner like Mr.. Lawrence allowed
himself to get in that plain trap. That is
all there is in it. Bob Kennedy in congress
was enough honor for Logan county at one
time.
Major Bickham also says, further:
There is question whether Mr.. Sher-
man directly requested the election of any
particular persons for the Eighth district
We know that Mr.. Sherman very decidedly
objects to interference in local political af-
fairs No doubt he said in reply that II
would please him if certain old and able
friends were elected, but we doubt if he
ventured further than this mere politeness,
excepting perhaps in his own district.
