TAPPINU TUB W1HEN.
Tbe Grand Army of the Republic have
given tbe intent and meaning of “Memorial
Day” in the resolution spread upon their
minutes, “that the Grand Army of the Re
public seeks by this memorial means to pre
serve tie memories of those who fought in
defence of national unity.” Hayes, Devens
and Key, in their Boston march, are on the
same line precisely.
A dispatch from Father Mesplie quotes a
talk of the Indians in the Walla Walla
valley as saying that they will never give up
the valley which they are resolved to keep
at every hazard, and it is the opinion of the
priest, who has for thirty years been a
Catholic missionary among tbe Indians, that
the war will be a prolonged struggle.
The Montenegrin army, according to a
late dispatch, is concentrated in a strong
position opposite Spuz and Podgoritza and
determined to fight for every foot of ground
occupied by the advancing Turks. Other
dispatches represent tho condition of the
Montenegrin army as quite desperate.
The New Hampshire Legislature is in ses
sion, and a resolution declaratory of ap
proval of the restoration of local self-gov
ernment in tho States of South Carolina,
Florida and Louisiana, submitted hv a Demo,
eratic member of the House, was referred to
tbe Committee on National Affairs.
The population of Rustohuk are flying
to the villages in the neighborhood
to escape the terrific fire of the Russian
bombardment, which is said to be very
heavy and destructive, and which has re
sulted in the injury of the Consulates of
Franco, Greece, Germany and Belgium.
The position of the armies in Asia Minor
remains unchanged. The Russian centre
has been reinforced by eighteen thousand
troops from the vicinity of Kars. The Turk
ish centre has also been reinforced by a divi
sion of eighteen battalions, and has ad
vanced two miles in front of Zewin.
When an officer of the army wants to raise
funds be can dispose of his pay roll at a dis
count of twelve and a half per cent., but the
poor fellows of the navy have to submit to
twenty-five per cent, discount. Such is the
discrimination between the two services.
The destruction of the English Consulate
at Rustchuk has been before the English
Commons, and notice haB been given by
Mr. Cowan, Radical member, that he will
ask to-day whether such a state of facts is
a breach of international law.
Packard, who went to Iowa for his health,
has so much improved in that particular
that he can inflict a senseless Bpeecb upon
tho citizens of Des Moines who senselessly
serenaded him.
The Consuls at Rnstchuk are drawing
np a protest against the Russian bombard
ment of tbeir residences, as being a viola
tion of all tbe principles of international
law.
The Ronmanian Cabinet‘are in favor of
crossing the Danube, with the exception of
the Minister of Foreign Affairs, who strong
ly opposes the movement.
Harvard University has conferred the
honorary degree of LL. D. upon Attorney
General Devens, Thos. F. Bayard and Ruth
erford Burchard Hayes.
Tho Grand Vizier has ordered the release
of the civil prisoners confined at Rustchuk,
numbering four hundred, whose lives are
endangered by the Russian bombardment.
It is said tb&t the object of the Russians
in the bombardment of Rustchuk is to com
pel the capitnlation of the city and thus
avoid a lengthened siege. '
The Russian army are fully settled in Bul
garia, in all 230,000 men, who are supported
by 118,000 quartered in Roumauia.
The Turks have evacuated Tchernsvoda
and Medjidie, and telegraphic communica
tion with Bababadgh has been cut off.
The Cossacks were, at seven o’clock yes
terday, in the vicinity of Papal, eight miles
from Tchernavoda.
The fast train on the Pennsylvania Rail
road will be discontinued on Monday next,
aud the old scbednle of May 15 be resumed.
Two complete Russian army corps, the
Eleventh and Fourteenth, now occupy the
Dohrodscba.
The army of the lower Danube is to be
reinforced by another army corps.
The Czar has ordered another army corps
from the interior to the lower Danube.
Giurgevo has been partly destroyed by the
Turks from their batteries at Rustchuk.
Ckiaes fbom Bbazil.—If a regular line
of steamers is established between this
country and Brazil, as is now being talked
of, one of the results, says the Boston
Commercial Bulletin, “may be the intro
duction, to a still greater extent, than at
present, of Brazilian cigars, which con-
noiseurs report equal if not superior to
the best Havanas. A tobacco trade of
thirty-six million pounds per annum has
a'ready grown up between the Brazilian
Empire and tbe United States, and the
competition with Cuba will tend, proba
bly, to lower the price of the world-
renowned cigar of that island. There
was a good display at the Centennial Ex
position of the variety of cigars grown
and manufactured in the province of
Bahia, and costing there from twenty-five
to thirty dollars per thousand, and hav
ing all the characteristics of Havana
cigars.”
Mb. Tildes to Visit Eubope.—The
New York World says : “It is understood
that Mr. Tilden has taken passage on the
Cunard steamer Scythia to sail for Europe
on the 18th of July, and it may be safely
inferred therefore, we presume, that he
agrees with the great majority of Demo
crats thioughont the United States in
thinking that it is hardly worth while to
waste much energy in making an ex. post
facto war even on a de facto President.
Mr. Tilden has already traveled in Europe,
and his tastes and habits of mind are
such as to make foreign travel eminently
agreeable to him. He will reach London
too late in the season to embarrass by his
presence his hospitable classmate, Minis
ter l’ierropont, who would have been at
his wits’ ends over the question how to
arrange the precedence of a President un
questionably elected and yet never in
augurated.
St. John, the city so nearly destroyed
by fire, is the commercial metropolis of
New lirunBW'ck, having a good harbor
which is kept clear of ice by the high
tides of the Bay of Fundy and the sweep
ing current of the St. John river. Its
population, with that of its suburb, Port
land, is about 50,000. Its wate works
have a daily capaoity of 5,500,000 gal
lons, and its fire department has three
steam engines. St. John was a city of
enterprise, but unfortunately it hp.d too
great a preponderance of wooden build
ings, hence tbe magnitude of the disaster
which has overtaken it. In proportion to
the city's size, it was a more disastrous
conflagration than either that in Chicago
or Boston.
The postmaster at Toledo has been
notified to resign, but he has compla
cently planted himself upon the civil
service platform and refused. He says
he is honest and efficient and wants to
know what the Washington people will
do about it, which they don’t seem to
know themselves.
Pertinent query from the New York
Sun: “Will ex-Judge Hilton exclude
Jewish women from the unfinished
Home for Working Women, upon which
Alexander T. Stewart expended so much
money?”
The Bullock and Blodgett Indictments.
What with the misrepresentations that
have been made in reference to the re
cent proceedings in the Bullock caso and
Hon. B. H. Hill's assuranoe of Foster
Blodgett that ho could not obtain a fair
trial in Georgia, an impression has gone
forth in regard to these prosecutions as
prejudicial to our courts and to the good
name of our State as it is unwarranted
by the facts. Based on these misrepre
sentations and Mr. Hill’s statement, the
Radical organs of the North are endeav
oring to convince their readers that the
fugitives, Bullock and Blodgett, so far
from being culprits deserving of
punishment, are injured innocents,
victims of rebel persecution and
injustice, who have been and are
still denied an opportunity of prov
ing tbeir innocence of the charges
against them. The Washington Star, in
an editorial on the subject, says:
•‘After an exile of eight or nine years,
ex Governor llufus B. Bullock, of Geor
gia, comes to the front and insists on a
speedy trial. He has repeatedly been de
nounced as a thief aud a swindler, but,
strange to say, the court at Atlanta seems
indisposed to tiy $he case. Perhaps the
case of Bullock is similar to that of Fos
ter Blodgett, who went boldly forward for
trial on tbe charge of swindling the State
a few years ago. Every time he went to
court he carried with him a tin box sup
posed to contain papers of the highest in
terest to certain prominent Georgians.
The certain prominent Georgians are
said to have regarded this Pandora’s box
with the greatest alarm. At any rate Mr.
Blodgett was never tried, aud consequent
ly there was never any necessity for open
ing the little tin box.”
The story of Blodgett’s tin box does
not tally with Mr. Hill’s advice to that
individual not to trust himself within tho
jurisdiction of the Georgia courts, from
which he could not expect an impartial
trial. If Blodgett is indeed innocent,
and if his tin box is such a Pandora’s
box as it is claimed to be, he might at any
time have defied his persecutors, and Mr.
Hill would hardly have advised him to
remain away from the State, a sus
pected criminal. Blodgett has had
ample opportunity for asserting his
innocence in court and of
opening his tin box any time within the
last four years, but whether he acted on
Mr. Hill’s advice or was influenced by his
own consciousness of guilt, he has never
insisted upon a trial of the indictment
against him.
So much for Blodgett’s case. Now for
the facts in regard to the alleged recent
demand of Bullock for a hearing of his
case. According to our information they
are as follows:
When Judge Peeples held his first
court during the spring, the Attorney
General went to him and informed him
that he was anxious to dispose of all the
cases aj^iiist parties who had been in
dicted on account of official frauds con
nected with the Western and Atlantic
Railroad. The Judge on account of
feeble health was unable to take them up
at that time, but promised to have a
Judge at someday during the term to
bold court for the purpose of
trying these particular cases. Judge
People's death prevented this arrange
ment from being carried out. On Judge
Hillyer’s accession to the bench the very
first day of his holding court it was an
nounced by the State, through tho At
torney General, that the State would be
ready in a few days to try the cases—
Bullock’s in particular. Subsequently a
motion was made by Bullock’s counsel to
put a domand on tbe minutes for trial.
This motion was opposed by the Attorney
General. First, because it was not made
either at the first or second terms of
the court after the indictment
was found, as required by law.
Second, because Bullock had fled
the State and had to be brought here on
requisition. Third, because the State
would be ready to go on with the trial
as soon as Col. Hawkins, one of tho asso
ciate counsel, could be notified to attend.
The court, in refusing the motion to put
the demand on the minutes, announced
publicly that tbe Attorney General, rep
resenting the State, was ready to try
Bullock, und that the only reason why
tho trial could not take pluce then was
that the Judge had given a different di
rection to the business before tbe court—
that he could not call the criminal docket
until a later day of tho term. Reporters
of the press were present at the time and
heard this public announcement, and yet
by failing to state tbe facts, have created
the impression that the State is not ready
to try Bullock, that the indictment against
him is a farce, etc.
We have the best authority for stating
that every effort will be made to push
tho trial to a vigorous conclusion in
August, the earliest day at which the
State can possibly move in the matter by
the order of the Jadge.
Notwithstanding Chief Justice Waite’s
denial that he met with discourtesy at
the hands of the Charleston people, dur
ing his late sojourn in that city, the New
York Tribune persists in harping on the
subject, and casting slurs upon tbe “chi
valry.” Of course such remarks are not
worth noticing, but they do seem to be,
to say the least, in exceeding bad taste.
The citizens of Charleston have a right to
cultivate social relations with whom they
please, and to avoid whom they please,
and all ^the Northern papers in concert
cannot force them to do otherwise. It is a
matter that concerns themselves only,
aud we think the Tribune will find out
that on that point they are not to be
bulldozed. Having bad much better
training in good breeding than either Jay
Gould or Whitelaw lteid, it is not likely
they will consult either of these gentle
men on the subject.
Mormonism is drawing recruits from
foreign countries. One hundred and
eighty of that faith from England, Wales,
Scotland and France arrived at Castle
Garden, New Y'ork, on the 21th instant,
and started almost immediately for Salt
Lake City. Inability to obtain employ
ment at home, coupled with tho belief
that Salt Lake City is an earthly paradise,
are the chief reasons given by tbe immi
grants for tbeir exodus.
The Picayune philosopher makes the
reasonable remark that there are ten
chances to one that the first man you meet
will say, “It is hot.” It is an original re
mark,and to n man puffing and perspiring
it seems assuring, as it were, that in think
ing the weather warm he had made no
mistake. It gives a man confidence to
have his feelings backed up by hearing
repeated what everybody knows.
The Manchester (N. H.) Union says:
“There are vague rumors that approaching
Republican State Conventions will pass
or try to pass resolutions in condemna
tion of the Democratic policy adopted by
the Hayes administration in its dealings
with thrf South, but every day makes it
less likely that there will be in any State
a serious attempt of the kind.”
Afbioa and the Slave Tbade.—The
International African Commission at
Brussels has concluded its labors. It has
decided upon the organization of stations
in Africa for the suppression of the slave
trade. It also decided that an expedition
shall leave Zanzibar in the direction of
Lake Tanganyika. The King of Belgium
was elected President.
The Charleston Election—A Demo
cratic Victory.
The election which took place on Tues
day for delegates from Charleston to the
South Carolina House of Representatives,
was a perfectly quiet one, and resulted in
a complete, straight out, Democratic tri
umph. The Radicals had put a ticket in
the field, and it was anticipated that they
would make a vigorous aud energetic
contest; but, contrary to expectation,
they made no opposition at all, but gave
up the fight and permitted an ea-y victo
ry to the Democracy.
The Neics and Courier gives various
theories for this apathy on their part.
One is that “they had no hope of win
ning, and saw no benefit in an opposition
that would aggravate ill-feeling in the
countyanother is that they had no
money to spare to defray the expenses
necessary to eleet their delegation, which,
even if elected, would have no influence
in Columbia; while still another is that
the old Republican leaders have deter
mined to abandon a hopeless cause, and
thought the present a good opportunity
for stepping down and out.
Whatever the reason, it is very certain
that the result is a glorious triumph for
the Democracy, whose organization was
perfect, and who elected a full Demo
cratic ticket, nominated solely by Demo
crats. Several good names had been
placed on the Republican ticket, men
whom the Democrats would not have ob
jected to voting for; but it was deter
mined to make a square contest, and vote
for seventeen Democracts chosen outright
by the party, rather than for ten Demo,
crats, selected, with seven Radicals, by
the Radical party.
A largo number of negroes voted with
the Demooracy, but many others stayed
at home and abstained from voting at all.
These were influenced by wild reports of
what it was the intention of the Demo
crats to do when elected. They feared
that their children would be excluded
from tbe public schools, and that they
would ba deprived of every right, even
that of walking on the battery. It is
needless to say that such reports were all
foolish, and the fears of the negroes en
tirely groundless. On this point, the
News and Courier says:
“ The responsibility of the Democracy
is commensurate with their power. Upon
them, not upon th3 Republicans, the
burden now rests. In the hand* of the
Democrats is the future of Charleston.
Their conduct will shape the relations of
the races in this important eouutv,
and we are satisfied that if their
policy be liberal and just, in big things
and little, the colored people will speedily
become staunch upholders of the Demo
cratic administration in the county and
the State. The Democracy have prom
ised tbe colored people that they shall ba
treated, in every public matter, as the
equals of the whites. It is now time that
promise become performance. The power
to act must be followed by tho act itself.
So will theDemocracy cement their newly
gained power, and make tho Democratic
fabric solid aud enduring.”
The majority for the successful ticket
is estimated at eight thousand—only
about one hundred less than the vote
polled for General Hampton in Novem
ber. This is worthy of special comment,
inasmuch as it shows that there was no
intimidation practiced. Nearly the full
vote was quietly brought out, and “even
the bitterest enemies of the South will
be forced to admit that the ticket was
fairly elected.” There was only one dis
turbance reported during the entire day,
and that arose from a difference between
two Democrats.
The following is a list of the Represen
tatives elected: C. G. Memminger, B. H.
Rutledge, B. O’Neill, C. H. Simonton, F.
Melchers, J. F. Ficken, G. L. Buist, D.
W. Erwin, S. C. Eckhard, R. D. White, R.
B. Rhett, T. B. Hacker, B. K. Kinloah,
E. O. Hall, J. C. Cain, J. C. McKewn,
Henry Harper.
In addition to this triumph, the grati
fying news was received that at an election
for State Senator in Darlington county, the
old stronghold of the cadetship peddler,
Whittemore, resulted in the choice of
Coker, Democrat, almost without opposi
tion.
Too much importance can hardly be
ascribed to these victories, they show
that Radicalism even in South Caro
lina is dead. Charleston was its last and
greatest stronghold in the entire South,
and if there, and in Whittemore’s old
domain, it could make no headway, it
may be safely considered as not only
dead, but buried. And when all this is
accomplished without any pretext for the
charge of intimidation, the fiercest blasts
which Blaine, Morton and their satellites
can blow in future will be powerless to
effect its resurrection.
Mr. Hayes is persuaded that Federal
office holders should not engage in “ the
State-making business,” and so the fol
lowing memorandum has been prepared
for his use in carrying out his rule :
“Gov. R. C. McCormick, Secretary of
the Republican National Committee, is
now Assistant Secretary of the Treasury.
“The Hon. Will Cuinback, member of
the same committee, is Collector of In
ternal Revenue in Indiana.
“ Capt. Elibu Eaos, of tho same com
mittee, is Postmaster at Waukesha.
“ Cbauneey I. Filley, of tbe same com-
tee, is Postmaster at St. Louis.
“Gov. Edward F. Noyes of the same
committee is to be Minister to Franco.
“E. W. Keys, the efficient and able
Chairman cf the Republican State Cen
tral Committee of Wisconsin, and through
whose exertions that State was saved to
the Republicans, is Postmaster at Madi
son.
“Daniel Shepard, the lively Secretary
of the Republican Committee of Illinois,
holds a position in the Chicago post
office.
“Gen. A. T. Wickoff, who so gallantly
led the fight in Ohio as Chairman of the
State Committee, is Pension Agent.”
Besides these active politicians, every
Radical knave who took a prominent part
in the returning board frauds has been
provided with a lucrative office. If Hayes
has made any change in the old Radical
practice of making office the reward of
partisan servioe, it has only been iD tbe
substitution of the bargain and sale plan,
by which the offices of the country are
disposed of as bribes by commissioners
appointed to make the bargains. Thus
far Hayes’ civil service practice is uo im
provement on that of General Grant.
Grant held the offices of the government
as personal perquisites with which to re
ward his friends: Hayes holds them as
political stock in trade with which to
bribe his opponents.
It is now rumored that A. Oakey Hall,
determined to seek perfeot seclusion, has
gone to the Danube as war correspondent
of some English newspaper. His family
are said to be ignorant of his whereabouts
and very dejected in spirit in conse
quence.
Packard has already opened the cam
paign for 1880 in Iowa. He made a
speech at DesMoines yesterday, in which
he waved the bloody undergarment quite
vigorously.
Campbell, one of tbe Mollie Maguires
lately executed, had much honor shown
his remains. A great many friends as -
sisted at the wake, at which a barrel of to
bacco was consumed, three boxes of clay
pipes used, while a half gallon measure,
frequently replenished from a convenient
ly located barrel of the ardent, was made
to do ample duty on the occasion. The
next day an immense but orderly crowd
of men, women and children followed the
body to the grave, and after the ceremo
nies quietly dispersed.
The Height of Ridiculousness.
Surely we had reason enough, before
tho Grand Army of the Republic held its
j late reunion in Providence, Rhode Island,
to have imagined that the acme of Ameri
ca; i impudence and disgusting snobbery
had been reached; but it seems that it has
been left to that august organization to
find yet a point from which Americanism,
or. more properly speaking, Yankeeism,
could be exposed to the ridicule of tbe
civilized world.
The dispatch announcing the pro
ceedings of this Grand Army of the Re
public states, they were “ intense.”
They were indeed “intense”—intensely
foolish, and intensely ridiculous, and will
stamp the members of the body con
cerned in them, as the most “intense”
idiots in all creation.
Of oourse, no one would object to
these people indulging their idiotic
propensities amoug themselves os much
as they pleased, so long as they kept
them to themselves. There is no harm
done to auyone by their assembling to
gether for the purpose of bloviating over
battles they never fought, and imaginary
victories they never won, but when it
comes down to parading their foolishness
before the eyes of the world, and making
themselves, under the Dame American,
the laughing stock of Christendom, then
it becomes a little serious.
Could anything be more utterly absurd
than the following dispatch sent by tbe
“Grand Army?”
“Out. U. 8 Grant, care of Iler Majesty
Queen Victoria, Buckingham Palace,
London:
“Your comrades in annual encampment
assembled at Providence, R. I., send the
heartiest greetings to their old comrade
and desire through yon to England’s
Queen to thank England for Grant’s re
ception.
“[SignedJ John F. Habtranft,
“Commander-in-Ckief G. A. R.”
Is it possible for snobbery to go further
than this ? With what supreme disgust
must such a proceeding have tilled the
mind of lier Majesty, the Queen, when
she received the message, and with what
contempt should its authors be regarded
by every sensible mau both at home and
abroad. We can readily imagine how
Englishmen laughed heartily at this exki
bition or impudence, ignorance, snob
bishness and buffoonery.
Happily thougb^he Grand Army of the
Republic aro not the American people.
They form a very small proportion of that
people, and represent a very small part of
the population of the different States of
the Union. The press of the country
ought, out of respect for their several
localities, make this fact known, and then
Americans, as a people, will not be snf
ferers to any great extent by such
foolishness. The only State which
will be made uncomfortably promi
nent, as a State, will ba Pennsylvania,
which enjoys the uncov-stable honor of
having such a man as John F. Hartranft,
“Cominander-in-Chief G_ A. R.” for her
Governor. The best thing she can do to
restore her credit for intelligence is to
disown the action of her Chief Executive,
and remind him that he h.as enough to
attend to in arresting, prosecuting and
executing the murderous Molly Maguires
of his jurisdiction, without wasting his
time, or making himself a laughing stock,
by sending absurd dispatches to “Gen.
U. S. Grant, oars of Queen Victoria,
Buckingham Palace, England.”
Y TEMUPB
Doctor Grant in London.
Speaking of Grant in London, a coire-
spondent, seriously, remarks: “Wherever
the General goes, etiquette makes great
concessions in his favor. If the conces
sions are not made, he does not go.”
“Now, in the name of all the god3 at
once, upon what meat doth this our
Catsar feed, that he has grown so great ?’’
And where did our worthy ex President
get his magnificent ideas ? There was a
period in his life, when he was not so
grand in his pretensions. Indeed, in
olden times, when he was bnt an obscure
officer in the army, so vary careless was
ho in the choice of his associates., that he
actually brought his profession into disre
pute, aud was forced to abandon it. Aud
we all kaow that, afterwards he engaged
in the very plebeian occupation of tan
ning hides, and most surely he was not
then so particular on the subject of
etiquette that he would refuse a dinner
unless certain “concessions” were made
to him by the distinguished company he
was likely to meet at table. A man who
soaks hide3 in a tany&rd is generally only
tooanxions to indulge in the vulgar oc
cupation of satisfying the cravings of the
appetite,to take time to consider whether
this or that one—Tom, Dick or Harry—
pays him special reverence, and wo have
no reason to imagine that His exalted
Excellency was then an exception to this
rule. But now, behold, all this is changed
—wonderfully changed. Think of it. One
who formerly guzzled down his drink with
anybody who would stand treat, and who
would not hesitate to partake of food with
his follow tanners, careful for nothing
except to get enough to eat, such an one
note even declines to accept the invita
tion of royalty, unless he can be recog
nized as an ex-sovereign, and ba
permitted to eater the dining room in
company with princes and potentates,
and on equality with royal dukes, duchess
es and foreign snobs of high degree.
The contrast between the past and
present career of the Doctor is Indeed
wonderful, surpassing oven the wildest
vagaries of romance or fiction. If his
ideas continue so to expand, fie will real
ly become so very exclusive that, after a
while, when he sets foot once mors upon
his native heath, he will neither eat nor
drink unless he can do so in company
with a rich post-trading Secretary of War
or a wealthy whisky thief. True it is
that the whirligig of time brings about
many changes, bnt history records few so
marked as this.
But, after all, what if the
conduct of the Doctor be not ex
actly in keeping with the republican
simplicity of which he claims to be a
representative, whose affair is it bnt his ?
Let him then ignore the vulgar herd, and
refuse even to dine with noble men unless
“concessions” are made to him. It is
only a matter between him and them, and
if they are mutually satisfied with their
mutual condescensions no one else has a
right to complain. Lat titled flunkeys of
England toady to him as the man who
“wielded the sceptre of the American
commonwealth for eight years,” if they
so desire. Here he will be always re
membered simply as a President whose
administration was conspicuously marked
by fraud and corruption, and who, on
the 5th of March, 1877, retired in dis
grace from his office, amid the general dis
gust of his fellow citizens.
One would not suspect from the cable
dispatches and bis daily engagements to
eat “swell” dinners, that ex-President
Grant ever participated in a domestio
dialogue like this: “Is dinner ready, Mrs.
G. ?” “Yes, nearly; but you musn’t come
into the house, Ulysses, with those boots
on: they smell too strong of the tannery.”

Pesth, June 27.—Minister Tisza, speak
ing in tbe Hungarian Diet yesterday, said:
“If the government had yielded to warliko
counsels a year ago at tbe most, the coun
try would have insured tho protection of its
interests which has been attained already
without sacrifices. Their policy from the
beginning bad been to preserve peace, and
wore this not possible, to localize the war, to
maintain cordial i elations with other pow
ers and preserve freedom of action
so as to prevent any terri
torial transformations, which might
be contrary to the interest of the monarchy.
The government had frankly communicated
to the European Cabiuets its view in this
respect. There was no danger of their sus
pecting Austria of ambitions designs. Aus-
tro-Hungary had no alliance with this view
anywhere, and no obligation with regard to
what Bhe might think fit to do for the pro
tection of her interests. Relative to mili
tary preparations, he said in the face of
certain contingencies such had indeed been
talked over, but uo actual resolution bad
been come to. Hs could as jure the House
chat among those with whom the decision
lay, there was no one who deemed the ob
ject or aim of foreign policy to make terri
torial changes on frontiers of the mon
archy [long and loud cheering], and that no
one dreamed of forming projects in the in
terest of such a pohey. He could give no
assurances that circumstances might not so
turn that tho army would have to cross the
frontier.”

PACKARD HEARD FROM IN IOWA.
DesMoines, Iowa, Juno 27.—Gov. Pack
ard last night, iu response to a serenade,
spoke as follows: “Kind Friends—I am
gratiiid at this exhibition of confidence and
friendship to me. I represented the canee
which you hold dear, as Republicans and as
American citizens, discharging, as well as I
could, the simple doty that fell npon me as
Governor of the State of Louisiana, trying
to assort my authority, and faffing. I did
not fail because tbe principles have
failed, bnt I believe that the prin
ciples cf the Republican party will yet
save Louisiana to the Republican
party. [Loudcheers and applause.] Since
I havo arrived in your beautiful city, and
even before I got here, I saw tbe evidences
of loyalty which abound In this groat Slate
to the Republican parly. I see all around
me thrift. I see around me intelligence. I
tound kind friends who had a word of en
couragement to Bay, a word of comfort and
cheer to give, aud a word for me to take
beck, as I return to my Southern home in a
few weeks, to cheer my companions. Many
of yon have met in this city as delegates to
a convention which is about to make nomina
tions for State officers. The men that
attend as nsual are men of more practical
experience and intelligence than myself, and
for this nothing need be said ; bnt I wish to
ssy that I am none the less tbe believer in
Repnblicanism now than I was while I was
claiming the offite of Governor of Louisiana,
and I am glad to see in Iowa evidence that
an election which is to coma off this fall will
be one in which the old time majority will
be repeated. It will be an election of the
whole Republican party; an election in
which, by ihe reminiscences of tbe majori
ties of past times, those majorities will be
repeated if the Republican standard
is kept up. If we have tbe Old Guard on
duty in the Republican parly heroaftor, as
wo have had it heretofore, there will be no
danger of a Republican defeat three years
from this time. It tbe Republican party is
defeated yon understand that it is the
Democratic party that succeeds, and if tbe
Democratic party succeeds it is the Confed
eracy that is in charge of the government,
and you all know what that means. [Loud
applause aud cheers, and cries of that's so.]
I shall contribute ail I can in the fu'ure,
as I have in the prist, to avert that
calamity. We need the encoaragoment
of tho round majorities from this State and
others in which the ltepnblican party has
been in tbe habit of giving, to encourage ns
to make the Republicans fee 1 Ihere that
their hands are strengthened. In concin-
sion, hoping we may have iu the future the
same sterling, strong and resolute action
as have always beed bad in this State, 1 pre
dict that the other States will follow,and that
this country will be saved to the Republican
party for years to come. I thank yon for
yonr attention.”

San Francisco, June 27.—A dispatch
from Boise City says: “The Rev. Father
Mesplie, for thirty years Catholic mis
sionary among the Indian tribes, and now
Chaplain of the United States army at
Fort Bois, makes the statement that in
1875 the Indians held a council, and tbe
proceedings were sent to Senator Mitchell,
bnt failed to reach Washington. Father
Mesplie was the medium between tbe In
dians aud Senator Mitchell. Father Mesplie
says if the matter had been attended to the
afiair might have been arranged, bnt
now it is too late. He qnotes a
principal chief, that the Indians
laughed at General Howard and bis fine
speeches, saying they would never persuade
them to give up the Walla Walla valley,
which they were resolved to keep at overv
hazard. Father Mesplie says tbe chiefs anil
principal men who inaugurated this war are
rich and influential, and they will be able to
draw to their support all the disaffected In
diana belonging to the various tribes, and
that these constitute a majority in every
case. He is of tho opinion ihat tho war
will be general and prolonged.”

THE CABINET AT HARVARD.
Boston, Juno 27.—At the Harvard Alumni
dinner President Eliot, in fitting language,
introduced President Hayes. Mr. Hayes
arose with apparent diffidence, standing
for some moments before commencing to
speak. The association favored him with
nino vigorous “rahs,” waived their handker
chiefs av him, aud in many other ways ex
pressed their enthusiasm and respect for
him. He blushed like a boy, and evidently
was laboring under intense emotion. When
he bad obtained sufficient control over bis
faculties to enable him to proceed he
said slowly and with evident diffi
culty: “Graduates of Harvard University,
this is your day. I may Hot, I ought not, to
take np any particle of your valuable time.
You will, therefore, excuse me, I am sure,
if I take my seat after saying in the brief
est way what I feel in my heart. lassuro you
that 1 have a very grateful appreciation of
this hearty greeting. I know how little it is
deserved. God grant that daring the re
mainder of my term I may be able to do
something to deserve it.” [Deafening and
long continued applause.]
George Bancroft, the historian, said be
had graduated sixty years. In the course
of his speech he said that more than one-
third of his class were stiff alive.
Gen. Key, who was received with warm
applause, said: “Mr. President, the cordial
greetings which I have met to day are
characteristic, it seems to me, of you,
people of New England, and convince mo
of the truth ot what I have beard of you.
[Cheers.] My friends, I feel that we have
now oDly one country. There is no North
and South, we are one and undivided; one
and inseparable.” [This sentiment pro
voked a renewal of applause, which was not
silenced for some moments.]
The next speaker was Carl Schnrz, who
was presented to the audience as a graduate
of Bohn in a neat speech by General Devens.
“Mr. President and gentlemen,” said Mr.
Schnrz, “there is no more comfortable and
pleasant institution amoDg men than a good,
well regulated admiration society. [Laugh
ter.] Let me assure yon that tbe members
ot the present Cabinet always speak pleas
antly of one another [laughter]; aud in
this respect we are the healthiest and hap
piest family that ever existed.”
THE MEXICAN REVOLUTION.
San Francisco, Jane 27.—By the arrival
of the Colima from Panama news is received
from Acapulco that on tbe ICth instant,
after a bombardment of nearly ten days by
Diaz’s gnnboatB, Alvarez capitulated. He
surrendered the fort wiiu two hundred and
fifty men to the naval forces,who thereupon
entered the town. The terms of capitnla-
tion are yet secret, from some reason known
only to the opposing commanders, bnt it is
known that amicable relations exist between
the two forces. The soldiers or the quondam
opposing armies are holding high carnival in
the streets of Acapnlco. Arm in arm they
are drinking and caronsiDg, and apparently
tho best of friends. It is said that Alvarez
has gone over to the enemy, bnt the infor
mation is extremely meagre. Tbe American
residents of Acapulco are nDdecided whether
to leave the place or not. They have so far
escaped without serious molestation, but
they announce their intention to appeal to
the" United states if they are subjected to
the insults or hardships of a civil war.
SETTLING UP THE CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION.
Philadelphia, June 27.—The Secretary
of the Treasury, after due deliberation, has
allowed tbe claim of the Centennial Board
of Finance for twenty thousand dollars,
which they had advauced to pay the salaries
of special customs officers in the early days
of the exhibition. Some other little trifling
matters were settled, and then a balance of
tweuty-eigbt or thirty thousand dollars was
paid over, and John Welsh, as President,
aud Frederick Fraley, as Secretary and
Treasurer, received a receipt in fuff from
tho Secretary of the Treasury for fifteen
million dollars. The money is in the inde
pendent treasury, and cannot go into the
regular treasury accouuts until authorized
by resolutions of Congress.
YELLOW FEVER IN CUBA.
New Orleans, June 27.—A dispatch to

An Elopement Spoiled.
[From the London Truth, June 7.]
Whitsuntide bas not been without its
romance this year within the charmed
circles of society. The story of an elope
ment, which was brought about by one
of the “parties” concerned in a very in
genious sort of way, is being told. A
young lady by no means unknown in the
world of fashion and engaged to be mar
ried to a gentleman of the long robe,
accompanied her parents to stay at their
home in the Midland counties during the
Whitsuntide recess. The gallant barris
ter ran down from town, too, after his
innamorata. During his stay an invita
tion arrived, asking the young iady on a
visit to some relatives living] about fifty
miles on the other side of London. A
note accepting the invitation and
arranging the very day and train was
penned and apparently dispatched; but
the wily man of law waylaid tho
letter, substituting another written in
good imitation of the hand of his
ladye love, which, with many regrets, de
clined the proposed visit. Trusting to
his knowledge of the lady’s relatives, that
no answer would be sent to the apparent
refusal, tho culprit went back to town the
rollowing day. Two days after, the fair
fiancee also came up, eu route for her
felalives’ place, and innocently expecting,
as arranged in her note, to find the fond
uncle standing, bovine-faced and eager,
on the Euston platform, ready to chape
rone his charming niece from ono London
station to another, and so on to her desti
nation. bat imagine her Astonishment 1
No uncle; only Master Barrister, some
what sheepish of aspect, and with a
lame tale about waiting for uncle at
some rendezvous where the latter
intended to call. The upshot of
the adventure, however, was that as
evening wore on, without dear uncle put
ting in an appearance at the rendezvous,
Master Barrister confessed his stratagem.
Ultimately, it is believed, the deceiver
prevailed upon the indignant damsel to
consent to its being made into a real
elopement by marrying him some few
days later. She stayed at the hotel; he
at his chambers, that is ascertained.
Some say that she was furthermore in
duced to write a dissembling letter home
the very next morning informing her pa
rents that her hosts had come suddenly
up to town for a few days, and that
she was staying with them, and thus
preventing any letters arriving for
her at her uncle’s in the
South—that, however, is not ascer
tained. The result, nevertheless, of the
escapade was this: The clergyman to
whom application was made by Master
Barrister for a license demurred at the
young lady being under age, which fact
a knowledge of the penalties of the
laws against perjury had doubtless
caused the learned knight to disclose. A
delay was politely suggested by the par
son, certain awkward inquiries instituted,
and all knowledge of what followed is
distorted in a terrific and kaleidoscopic
jumble, in which a deeply-injured parent,
a horsewhip aDd a barrister’s chambers
are eclipsed by one prominent figure of a
man with his hair rubbed all ways and a
coat ripped down the back.
