Talking from Rosemount Verandah.
Saratoga, N. Y, Sept. 1S.-Although
there are many well known democrats
here tonight the absence of some of
the foremost leaders, who will be most
influential in the selection OF the ticket
to be nominated at the democratic
state convention, which begins here at
noon on Tuesday, prevents the situation
from taking any definite form.
Everybody, regardless of particular
political affiliations, agrees tonight
that no definite settlement has been
reached as to the nomination for gov
|ernor. 1t is conceded that so far as
actual pledged delegates are concerned.
John B. Stanchfield of Elmira has the
lead. On the other hand the name of
Edward NJ. Shepard Of Brooklyn is the
one which most of those here tonight
seem in clined to place at the head Of
their speculative ticket with Assembly
man George M. Palmer of Schoharie
for lieutenant governor. The Tammany
people who are here mention four
names, any one of whom would be ac-
|ceptable to Tammany Hail. Shepard,
Palmer, Judge d. Cady Herrick of Al
bany, and Judge William ]. Gaynor, of
Brooklyn. They express themselves as
opposed to Mr.. Stanchfield, and equally
SO to Comptroller Edward M. Grout
of New York. There is no movement
here in evidence in favor of the nomina-
tion of District Attorney William Je-
rome.
w, Caryl Ely, president of the In
ternational railway trolley system Of
Buffalo and Niagara Falls, and Daniel
N. Lockwood Of Buffalo were also men
toned by those who favored Charles
Goodyear, who declined to allow the
use o. his name.

In December 1872. months after activi- ties had progressed on the northern frontier, Jackson put two thousand infantry on boats he had built at Nashville to float down the Western waters to the government rendezvous Natchez. He directed Colonel John Coffee tomarch overland with the cav airy to meet him there.
 After sixty-nine days voyage, the troops reached Natcriez. Jackson re- ported his arrival to General Wilkin- son at New Orleans. No orders came. Weeks of wearisome waiting promised no active service. The Tennessee smili- tia General complained direct to the Secretary of War; he begged to be al- lowed to take his command North. to the field where service might be had. The reply came to disband there at Natchez, volunteer troops that had been foated down stream hundreds of miles. but could not be fioated up stream to their homes. At the same time recruiting officers from General Wilkerson came to .le camps seeking volunteers. Jackson summarily order ed them out of camp.

 General Jackson led three expeditions of Tennessee troops to the Southwest in the war of 1872 It Is the purpose here to consider rather the effects of his military operations upon the country than the soldierly qualities in which the commander conducted himself. Suf- fee 1t to be said that the British sent the great Tecumseh from Ohio, accom- panied by his brother. the chief proph- ct, into the Mississippi Territory to incite the Indians to a massacre. The word sent by Tecumseh was, that tho Americans were preparing to drive out all the tribes and seize their lands. If the British succeeded in the war.
 they would not disturb the Indians
 but would take possession of all the Americans owned. In this spirit the Indians fought. taking and giving no quarter. Jackson's Indian campaign, from October 1873 to the spring of 1874, when the Creek nation was destroyed
 at the battle of the Horse Shoe, was the most complete success of any campaign against Indians known to American history. Space is insufficient here for details He started out from Thomp-
