The Turco-Ruosian treaty leaves a good many points open. The question of the btraits is to be determined by the Congress, and that of the southern frontier of Bulgaria by an international commission. The ques tion of the annexation of the port of Kavaia is also to be left to the «ame commission, and thus serious difficulties will be avoided. Mr. Edmunds, of Vermont, has reported in the Senate adversely on the House bill to remove certain l«*gal disabilities of women.

Kossa, however, has secured St. Patrick’s Hall, but if he appears, he will be attacked beyond donbt. The police force and picked men from the “Queen’s Own” will be on hand to preserve order. A large and excited meeting of Cubans opposed to surrender has been held in New York. W. Greaves A Co., cotton manufacturers of Manchester, have failed. SL Patrick’s day was enthusiastically ob served in various sections of this country and Canada. In Washington especially it was celebrated with great eclat. A revolution recently broke out in Port-au- Prince during the absence of the President. The palace, arsenal and fort were attacked and the latter taken, 'flic navy remained faithful to the government, and at last ac counts was bombarding the position of the revolutionists. Thomas C. Anderson, of Louisiana re turning board infamy, has l»een released by the Supreme Court of the State of Louisiana on the extraordinary ground that the altered election returns of Vernon parish wa* not a public document, and the indictment was, therefore, defective. Mr. Vance, of North Carolina, intioduced in the House yesterday a joint resolution providing for the payment of mail contrac tors in the Southern States for sendees per formed previous to the time that the Con federate States Government took charge of the mail sendee. Mr. Harris, of Tennessee, presented a memorial favoring liberal sub sidies to* American lines of ocean steamers for carrying the mails. •Mr. Hayes has approved the bill to aid Jame.' Cordon Bennett’s Polar expedition. The run on the Boston savings hanks still continues, though the excitement has some what abated. The Home Committee on Ways and Means have placed the tariff on bagging for cotton, composed in whole or in part of hemp, jute, flax, gunny bags, gunny cloth, or other material, at twenty-five per cent, ad valorem. The illicit distillers who recently were released from jail by a mob in Pickens county, S. C., have been recaptured and several more illicit distilleries broken up. The citizens turned out in numbers to the aid of the revenue officials. The late destructive fire ic Panama, an account of which was published when it occurred, was started by a clerk In a drug store throwing a lighted mutch in a measure of bay rurn.

Mr. Hayes is highly gratified at the action of the Supreme Court of Ixiuisiana ip the returning board case. He thinks the whole Union will applaud. The report that Russia did not object to Greece being represented in the coming European Congress is confirmed. The only question raised was that of the footing upon which the Greek representative should be admitted. Will Not Mert With Encouragement The London Economist doe9 not think the proposal of the silver bill for an “in ternational bi-metallic conference" will meet with much encouragement in Eu rope. It says it does not for one moment apprehend that cither France. Italy, Bel gium, Switzerland, or even any of the smaller States interested in the Latin Union, will, at an international con gress convoked upon the invitation of the .President of the United States, be persuaded to fall hack into the retrograde and ineffectual system of a double standard, proved, as It has lieen, to be full of errors and inconveniences; and as to England, Germany, Sweden, Denmark and Norway, or other countries which have the advantage of a single standard of gold, or as to India, which has the next best thing to it, a single standard of silver, there is no proba bility of their entertaining so vision ary a project as that of a bi-metallic money and a see-saw standard. The anti-silver ring may find comfort in this assurance from the Economist but even if its predictions should prove true, and the conference contemplated by the Senate amendment to the silver bill should reject the bi-metal ic standard, its action will not affect or change the deter mination of the people of the United States to utilize silver as coin, and to moke it a legal tender with gold in the transactions of both the govern ment and people. It was hard ly to be expected that the bond holders of Europe or the governments of the non-silver producing countries, com prised in the Latin Union, would be de sirous of giving currency value to silver equal, proportionately, with that of 1(1 ’ Their disinclination to such an adjustment is. however, no reason why the silver hill should lie repealed, the American dollar discarded, and gold es tablished as the sole ami delusive stand ai-d of value in the United States. {ownnee of Koekville. a nta Constitution announces 11 shortly commence in iu , e the publication of a serial the above title by our friend ociatc, Sir- J.

With our for his eminent success, we interest the appearance of the af BockviHe." .es- . of vho General Toombs and the Gubernato rial Question. General Toombs agrees with us the agitation of the Gubernatorial tion by the press at this time is pr ture. In a recent interview with © the editors of the Atlanta Constitution informed him that some of the p *ers wanted to make him Governor, remark ing that there was considerable discussion on the subject, the General said: “Ye*, “much more than ought to be. The election is three * years off, and no one knows the changes that will take place in that lime. I will be seventy years old, if alive; then I agree with the views expressed in the Constitution a few days ago, that the dis cussion of the subject is premature." The General admitted that he was dis qualified from bolding office if the four teenth amendment is law, but he main tains that the amendment was made a part of the constitution by force and fraud, and that it was never adopted by Legislatures of three-fourths of the States, nor by conventions of three-fourths of the States. “It was,” says he. “born of the reconstruction acts, and lias no great er validity than these acts." Being ask<*d if he had any desire to be a candidate for Governor, he replied: “I have neither desire, wish or expec tation ever to re-enter the public service in any capacity whatever, or to hold any office* civil of military, either under the Government of the United States or the State of Georgia, but as long as my life may last I will consider myself equal to the burthen and would re-enter the pub lic service in any position which I may be called by the people and in which, in my judgment, I would promote the good government of the human race, ana es pecially of that in which Providence has cast my destiny. My determination on such a question would not in the least be affected by the fourteenth amendment. It cannot bind my conscience, and there fore can never control my action. I have nothing to make in public life. 1 would consider it a public calamity to me. I want to see the new generation that is coming on take charge of matter*. If I ever conclude to run the people will know it, because they will have to de mand it, but I don’t intend to kick be fore I am spurred.” BY TELEGRAPH. NOON TEL E GRA A1ST FROM DARIEN. Wrwk of the Ship Americano The Cargo All Saved. Special Telegram to the Jtaming .Vein*. Dakien, Ga., March 18.—The British ship Americano, which cleared this morning, en countered a heavy gale off the north break ers, near Sapelo Island, and went ashore.

London, March 18.—The Tunes has the following from 8t. Petersburg: **The treaty leaves a good many points open. It reserves the question of the straits for the Congress and leaves the southern frontier of Bulgaria to be determined by an international commission ac cording to. the nationality of the inhabi tants. The question of the annexation of the port of Kavaia is left to the same com mission, and thus serious difficulties on that point are avoided. Lord Derby will proba bly receive the treaty next Saturday, as a courier for London will leave on Tuesday.” Paris, March 18.—General Berthaut has been appointed to the command of the Eighteenth army corps, with head quarters at Bordeaux, In place of General DeGrimaudet DeRochebovet, transfer red to the reserve.

THE O’DONOVAN ROSSA TIKE. LEC- A Riot Impending in Toronto. CBLKBKATION OF ST. KICK’S DAY. Returning Board Anderson Rescued from the Law. It will be seen by our dispatches this morning that Returning Board Ander son, convicted of perjury ami forgery, has. by the intervention of a technical decision by the Supreme Court of Loui siana, been rescued from the clutches of the law and the just punishment of his crime. Since it was a matter of political necessity that* the perpetrators of the fraud by which Mr. Hayes was counted into the Presidency,.should Ik? protected, it is perhaps as well that the outrage against law, right and justice should be accomplished in this way as by any other means. It at least relieves Governor Nidi oils from the performance of n disagree able. office, and, though based on bal l technicality, is equally as gratifying to Mr. Ilnyes as a pardon would have been. pccially as the decision that an election return is not a public document, covers I cle in law the cases of Wells and the other conspirn- -* f wo “ en P 1 * 4 tors. In reaching this remarkable deci- ion. the Supreme Court 1ms reversed the loctrine of the electoral commission, for while the “eight-to-»even” maintained that it was aliumle to go lieliind the count of the returning board to consult r the validity of the returns, the court goes behind the evidence and the decision of the court below to declare that the altered election returns were not public documents, and therefore it was no crime to alter and falsify them. Well, well' What next? LONG STRIKE AMONG THE OLD HAM WEAVERS. Congressional. Sitting Bull Preparing for War this Spring.—The information received at the array headquarters in Washington about Sitting Bull, his intentions, and the condition of his followers is directly opposite to the press reports. Phim till information it appears that Sitting Bull and his people are not on the verge of starvation as represented, but are in fine condition. The winter has been very mild where he is now living, buffalo and other game plentiful, grass plentiful and comparatively fresh, and their ponies in fine condition. His followers have pleu ty of arms and ammunition, and are daily increasing in numliers. He does not want to surrender, but evinces a strong de-ire to go on the war path. In ail the pledges he has made to the Canadian au thorities he has never promised anything more than not to make war on the United States while on Canadian soil. It is lie lieved that he Is preparing for another war next spring, and will be joined as soon as he crosses the liorder by all the roving and disaffected bands of Indians in the northwest. A Female Forger.—Facts have come to light which show that Miss Mary Hampton, a teacher in the public schools at Memphis, Tenn., has been guilty of forgery in several sums, aggregating pro bablv $.1000. She used the name of J. T. Heath, Superintendent of the Public Scuook, in the indorsement of notes which she got cashed by the Emmet Bank and various individuals. Her forgeries extend to school warrants, and include the name of her own spiritual adviser. Rev. Father Walsh. Both Miss Hamp ton and her widowed mother are re spected teachers of long service. Flight ok President Baez.—The French mail steamer from St. Thomas, Biarch 10th, arrived at Havana Friday News had been received at St. Thomas that President Baez, of San Domingo, with his family, arrived at Mayaguez. in the Hand of Porto Rico, on March 5th. The fact of his arrival is all that was known in St. Thomas when the steamer left. No further particulars had been received from Porto Rico to explain the President's departure from San Domingo, and no news whatever of late events in San Domingo hud reached St. Thomas There is now pending before the House Coinage Committee a proposition to amend section three of the silver dollar law so as to provide for silver coin cer tificates of the denomination of one, two and five dollars. The lowest de nomination provided in the existing law is tcc dollars. Mr. Stephens, Chairman of the committee, will urge an amend ment providing for certificates of de nomination of one dollar, and a bill em bodying ilia? provision will probably lie reported at an early day. The letter of Secretary Evarts to our Ministers at the various foreign courts comprising the Latin Union encloses a copy of the silver bill, and contains the following paragraph: “You will observe that an early adhesion of at least three of the European nations to the project of a conference isof the first importance. This being secured, it will be in the power of the President to appoint the commissioners provided for, in such case, by the act of Congress. ” Opening of Navigation.—Naviga tion on the great lakes is practically open a month or six weeks earlier than usual.

Washington, March 18.—Mr. Edmunds, of Vermont, from the Committee on Judi ciary, reported adversely on the House bill in relation to certain legal disabilities of women, and moved that it be indefinitely postponed. It provide- that any woman who shall have been a member of the bar of the higher court of any State or Territory «>r District of Columbia for a period of t&ree y»-.ir-. may I»e admitted to practice in the Supreme Court of the United States. Mr. Edmunds said the ground of the ad verse report of the committee was that by the law of the land, as it has existed since the organization of the government, the Su preme Court, as well as all other United States Courts, were authorized to make their own rules touching the admission of attorney*, so that there was no ohsta- prohibiling the admission ractice in tue United State-. Jit depended entirely upou the discretion of the court.’ The Committee on the Judiciary thought the act would make a discrimination iu favor of women, a- it compelled the court to admit women to practice when it was not bound to admit inen. • On motion of Mr. Sargent the bill was placed on the calendar, with the adverse report.
