April 18.—Nino thousand op- tntire* are idle to-day at lirunliy. Tne fpionrr* ere willing to accept tho redne- ,1'p tut the weavers refusing, all have suuct. Labor at other points is onset* tkd. Ljndon, April 18.—Voesels waiting for flight for Indie neve been invited to n*ke bids for the conveyance of troops to tho Mediterranean. The dispatch of troops from India to jlsluiatho leading topic of political di<r.utsion. The supporters of the gov, rrouu-nt regard it ae cnly a natural ac- ooapaniment of other precautionary oieaturer, and notan indication of bellig erent mt- ntione. The opponents of the government regard it as another step in the development of a warlike policy. Tuty point to the fact that the nows was announced the day after the adjournment of parliament for the Easter recess, thus preventing criticism or explanation of the measure for three weeks. The opinion is expressed that this is cno of the dr terminations of the Cabinet fchieb Lord Derby referred to in his re- Btiksin the House of Lords on the 8th iattast se inducing his resignation of tho tcroign secretaryship. The royal yacht Osborne, has been or- dtied to the Mediterranean immediately is bring homo the Dnke and Duchess of KJinbnrgb. Orders have been received at Porta* moaib for ships of the first reservo to be •arveyed sod prepared, with all dispatoh, (or a six month’s cruise with the channel iqaadron. Chief ofBoers have been ap pointed to the Oyalops, Gorgon, fleets ted Hydra—all iron armor plated turret •tups of 3,480 tone burthen, and carrying (onr guns eaeb, and the Prinoo Albert of foar gone, an iron armor plated torret -liipe of 3,906 tons. It is reported that they will he shortly c.uiminioned for coast defense, reliev- ing the aea going ships now noting as a coast guard. A chattered steamer left Plymontb yos tttday with 2,600 tons of ammunition aud stores, tbnty steam lannohea and tor pedo hosts for the Mediterranean fleet. Accounts from Berlin and Vienna are ■till hopeful that the Congresa will meet shortly. Priace Bismarck left Berlin last even lag for bis I.uaenberg estates, but it is not thought that this will interfere with diplomatic negotiations. The persistence with which England sad Russia are maintaining their posi tions concerning the Congress, is hold to mesa that the difference is a radical one sod that each power sees in the other’s proposal an attempt to prejudice before hand the character of the Congress, fiance, probably, the willingness of the St. Petersburg cabinet to revert to Prince Bismarck u original idea of tho Congress discussing the treaties of I860 and 1871 rather than the treaty of San Stefano. If this suggestion is acceptable to England, the difficulty of oesombling tho loagreaa without wounding Russia's dig* sity is hinted at in a semi-official utter ing in yesterday’s organ of the Russian ministry of foreign affairs, which said, “tc cars little about tbu way of getting into congress, provided tho door is largo rLouph to admit all without any one having to stoop, might bo oasily over come. But the belief does not gain ground that the congress will eucceed in averting war, even if it ever meets." Tho cabinet crisis at Constantinople continues It is believed Ahmed Veiik Effendi, President of the Conncil of Min isters and Minister of the Intorior. ad heres to bis resignation; but this is not certain. A reconstruction of the cabinet is said to be impending, but no successor to Ah med Veiik Effendi is mentioned. The contest is between Raisin and England tor mpcmacy. The Turkish people and army are said to ba bitterly hostile to a Russian alli ance. Tbo Turkish ministerial council yester day deliberated on a reply to the demand of General Nelidorff, the Russian charge d’affaires, for tbo evacuation of Shum- la. Varna aud Batoum.

I will keep the beer ice-cold all the time. It will be ship ped here in Gaff & Co’s fine refrigerating cars, and will be as good when it arrives as when first made. I will handle both kegs and bottled beer. This beer is made especially for the Southern trade, and is pronounced by all who try it to be the best in the country, Messrs. Gaff & Co. arc men of ample means, and have used every facility they have to make the AURORA BEER second to none in the United States, Below I annex statements from reliable merchants of several Southern cities who are handling these goods: I hava bean handling the Aurora Beer lor four years, and consider it second to none in America. J. J. HENSOR, Nashville. Tenn I hare sold thirty thousand kegs of Gaff A Co's Aurora Beer in three years, and it has given perfect satisfaction. J. F. DOLL, Vick sburg. Miss. Messrs.
