He said: “I did talk with the President on that subject, because I am actively engaged in the canvass and I wanted to know how to handle the question in my future speeches. The President told me that Ineed not worry at all; that it was not neces- sary to unde: e any defense, and he cau- tioned me against assuming the defensive. He said that the people of the country have evidence of the sincerity of the Administration. You may state,” continued the democratic leader, “in the most emphatic terms, that Minister West will notremain here. No, I don’t know that he will leave or be re- called before the election, because there is a course of etiquette governing these diplomatic matters that must be observed. Ican tell this much, however, the President has ad- dressed to the British government a vigorous protest, couched in the he knows how to use, against the conduct of Minister West, and I think it is strong enough to remove him from here,” DISPATCHES FROM MINISTER PHELPS.

Albro, of Fredonia, New York, the newly-appointed superintendent of Indian schools, arrived in the city yesterday. To-day he was at the Indian Office, and he told a ‘Star reporter that he wanted to make himself somewhat familiar with the office before taking active charge. “He was introduced to the clerks by Indian Commissioner Oberly. Mr. Albro created a favorable impression among the officials of the Indian Bureau by his ap- peerance and manner. He is a man of medium height, inclined to be somewhat stout, and has the clear-cut style of expressing himself char- acteristic of a practical man. He has been en- gaged as an educator all his life and was prin- cipal of the Normal School in Fredonia and re- cently one of the lecturers of the Teachers’ In- stitute. He is now about fifty years of age. While he has not given special attention to the subject of Indian education, yet he evi- dently considers that it is an important feature of the Government policy in dealing with the Red men. . 4 TALK WITH MR. ALBRO. In the course of a brief conversation with a Srar reporter to-day, he said that if Indian children were educated the Indians would then be in a fair way of becoming citizens and able to care for themselves, A sufficient number of children should, however, receive the bénefits of education to prevent the slipping back into uncivilized habits, which is natural when a child is sent from a school back to its home. As far as literary education was concerned, he onees that only the elements should be cought, and in this wa: would be set in the path of civilization and their onward progress would be in accordance with the natural development of the human mind. He expressed himself as being epee. to what might be termed over education as tending to unfit the Indian children for the life they must lead when returned to their homes, ENLARGED POWER OF THE SUPERINTENDEXT. The office to which Mr. Albro is appointed has been in existence for the past six years, and has been to a certain extent a division of the Indian Bureau. A clause was inserted in the Indian - ropriation bill during the recent session 0: fsbo which entirely changed the character and scope of the offe>. The sd intendent under the new law is requi to yisit the schools where the Indians are taught in whole or in part by Government appropris- tions, and to report to the Secretary of the In- terior any defects in these schools atid what changes are needed to remedy them. The superintendent can, subject to the approval of the Secretary of the Interior, employ and dis- charge superintendents, teachers, and any other person connected with schools wholly supported by the Government, and with like approval make such rules and regulations for tie condash if. sack cokoals oa ta tie judgment ae hg fixed by the law at $4,000 per annum, w! is an in- crease of $1,000. It is not decided whether this office shall be entirely under the direction of the Secretary of — Hergw! hehe the —_ a4 = superintendent s] e performed thro machinery of the Indian Office. How About Michigan? SENATOR STOCKBRIDGE SAYS HARRISONS’ PLU- RALITY WILL BE NOT LESS THAN 10,000, A private letter just received from Senator Stockbridge, as alo one from his secretary, Mr. Olds, who has been for many years secretary of the republican state central committee of Michigan, conveys in very positive terms the assurance that Michigan's plurality for Harri- son will not fall below 10,000, and that the republicans will gain at least two 2 ib}; made by Mr. their good may require.

Special Dispatch to Tae EvENINe StaR. Norrorx, Va., Oct. 30.—This district, the second, though not attracti#g so much atten- You | tion just now, is quite analogous to that of the | much talked of and closely watched Peters- burg district. As in that, this isin the “black belt” and largely republican, but both the Ma- hone and anti-Mahone factions have strong candidates in the field and each is unrelenting, —determined to fight it out to the end, let the result be what it will. Congressman George Bowden is the “regular,” or Mahone candidate, and is making a desperate effort for re-election and has the larger part of the white republi- cans and no mean portion of the colored peo- ~ behind him. While the white republicans this district, and especially in Norfolk and Songeer ye have wi - ly ee ope eae much for party ey have always managed to havea Trhite iaeteed of acolored man as their candididate for Congress. The colored leaders have borne this with a good deal of fortitude until two — ago, when they concluded it was high to some recognition of their race, which is in a jor- ity in the district, and the revolt against Mahone. THE LANGSTON CONTINGENT of the fourth district has its counterpart in the second in the Norton family, with the advan- tage in favor of the latter in having spent all their lives in Virginia and been influential in local politics ever since the celebrated Under- wood convention and the first session of the legislature after the war, in both of which one or more of the family were representatives. They are residents of the ancient Yorktown, well-to-do, and one of them, Dr. Daniel M. Norton, has represented his district in the state senate, and his brother, Robt. Norton, the coun- y in the house of delegates, if not continuously, ince the adoption of the present constitution. Until two years ago their admiration and sup- port of Gen. Mahone was extreme, and it is oe conceded that his election to the nited States Senate was largely, if not entirely, due to their influence. From ardent ogee they have become his most powerful and irre- conciliable enemies, and their antagonism is represepted in the candidacy of Andw. Williams, the colored sheriff of Elizabeth City County, for Congress. The Nortons make no disguise of the fact that they would ¢ sagt the election of a democrat to Congress the success of the Mahone ticket. one’s fight against and abuse of Langston, their brother in color, has only intensified the situation and made a com- promise or concession utterly impossible. THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE is Richard C. Marshall, of Portsmouth, who made such a gallant fight a few years ago, and who is pushing a very vigorous canvass again. very large increase of registration is shown, and it is announced that the whites gained in six wards out of nine in this city, only two wards showing colored gains. If the Nortons succeed in dividing the repub- lican vote equally with Mahone the democrats will certainly elect their candidate. At the last election the republicans polled about 20,000 and the democrats very nearly 14,000, so it can be readily seen how easily Mr. Marshall van be. — the republicans divide anything like evenly. 2 Gen. V. D. Groner, thé republican elector on the John 8. Wise (anti-Mahone) ticket, has withdrawn and will support the one elec- toral ticket in the interest of Harrison and Mor- ton, but in his letter of declination, just pub- ss clearly intimates and his fri nds as- sert that he will stand by the Williams ticket for Congress, It is not among the impossibilities that the democrats may corey every congressional dis- trict in Vi ough they will probably only get eight out of the ten. —————_ THE TALK OF LONDON.
