| apoplexy while preaching in Winchester
| Cathedral, England, is dead.
CONGRESSMAN HERBERT has been renom-
mated by acclamation by the Democrats
| of the Seventh Alabama district, this max
ing his seventh successive nomination.
MAJOR MCKINLEY, the Ohio Congress
man, addressed the Georgia Chautau-
qua" at Atlanta on the 21st in defence of
high protective tariff.
JUDGE THURMAN was at Detroit, Mich,
| on the 21st and took boat ride on Lake
Erie.
The Republicans of the Ninth Indiana
district have renominated Hon. Joseph B.
Cheadle for Congress.
THE English press thinks the return of
General Boulanger to political prominence
| any thing but reassuring to the peace of
Europe.
JUDGE THURMAN delivered his first great
speech Of the Democratic campaign at
