Russia has acted, hat advanced, has waged battle, baa taken terri tory, tut Rnaela has said nothing. Eugland has done all the talking, and has made all the expla- nations. Hence it is that the cm has had no retrac tions to make, but Gladstone's necessity for making excuses hss been so supreme that in the eflort to talk against blows last Monday evening be succeeded without saying auythlug lu making tho greatest speech of his life, and for making got from a completely silenced opposition an un limited credit and <55,000,000 in cash. For forty- London, April 27—Mr. Gladstone, in tho VIT .„ )lllwtmr|Wl r VW ,„ TrnT .„ iurfc _ house of commons, bringing up the subject of I dgbThoun“afto^ m^eUoui a vole of credit of £55,000,000 asked for bjr the government on the army and navy account, said he hoped that the motion to divide tho credit would not be pressed, The government, he said, would not devote any portion of money voted for particular purpose! for use in the Simian, but would reserve! discretion to apply the money taktn.from tho Soudan ac count for the purpose of spooial preparation, Ha urged the house to vote the government the entire £55,0*00,000. The proposal to aepar ate Soudan credit from “the credit tor special preparations” was rejected by a vote of 229 against 180. The home then entered into committee of supply and Mr. Gladstone proceeded to explain the object of the voto of credit. His voice was very hoarse, but his speech was one of the most powerful and telling that he ever delivered. When he had concluded, the commons, with out discussion, aa suggested by Mr. Gladstone, Toted entire credit ot £55,000,000 asked by the government. Edward Tempely Gomty, rad ical member for Sunderland, asked whether the government would endeavor to have the dispute with Russia referred for arbitrament to the United States ol America. Mr. Gltd- atone answered: “The government are seosi ble of their heavy responsibility to maintain the bcuor and good faith of the country! the one hand, and on the other to use every means consistent with that honor to avoid war. I can give no moro particular reply than this.” This utterance wet accepted as signifi cant and was received with cries of “heart heart” The premier was cheored to tho echo bop. during the delivery and at cloie of oration, every jingo in Eugland was a Glsditono man, and every quaker prayed for him as a man of peace. Tho war party were sure he meant simply wipe Russia out of Asia. The peace folk* said: “There Is a statesman who realize* the value of human life." After Are days it is fonnd that the premier's address is still an oracle. If it Is to be peace, the speech urged every honorable eflort to seenro an honorable Ft tee. II it is to be war tho speech dwelt upon the necessity oi maintaining British honor. So it happens to-night that here, the very can* ter of the old world'* news, no more can with any degree of certainty be said than that the anglo- Butsian situation is otnc or uNcxaraiKTr, It is probable that the situation will remain just as it is to-night until after the second council at Gstschlns. Two Indications as to the nature ot what will be changed ustion when It comes, will present themselves to a careful observer. London newspapcis, which ofteuest apeak by ministerial inspiration, began to day to disparage 6ir Peter Lumsden, tho chief of tho British Afghan bouudary commission. It was Sir Peter's word which Gladstone took upon which to base the charge that the Russians had violated faith with England by occupying Pull KoUU. Sir Peter also furnished the report that the esar'a troops had advanced upon Meruchak. Both o! these reported actions constituted the powerful elements to tho war fever among Englishmen. London, May 8.—Tho eabinot council Saturday had under consideration tho dis patch received from Sir Edward Thornton, British minister to Russia, atating that M DtGicrs, Russian minister oi foroign affairs, asked for time in which to discuss and in gpeccht He was also most onthu.iutioelly I '"I" 1 the .grctmc tof Mereli 17th, before cm.red when leaving hou.e of common, dee ding whether irbitnUon wo. retired to after the speech. 1 EFFECT OF GLADSTOXl'8 8PRKCII, The government has no information with reference to the report that the esar is going to Moscow conservatives had intended to move an adjournment of credit debate in the house of commons, but seeing the effect of Mr. Glad stone's speech ref reined.

RUSSIAN PREPARATIONS. Sr. Pareuauaa, April 27.—Seven million roubles in gold have been sent to oeutral Asia. The decision as to peace or war is expected to morrow, or, at latest, by May 1st. A lecture by Captain Tnrakboil, of the Giur-is, is much commented upon. Tho speaker referred to the eventual conquest of the Afghans, which would bo as dilficult as tho conquest of Caucasus. It is estimated that the ameer's forces number 50,000 men and 00 guns. ^ London, April 28.—The commissary denari- courier, with the official written reply l warns its renders, ho •gainst the hasty conclusions that peace assured* IheNsva From Panama. Panama, April 28.—Cambil Combina, tho messenger of tho diplomatic corps of Bogota, arrived at Panama this morning with tho national trrops, who consist chelfly of volun leers from Cancan, under command of Mon toga, who has sent Aispura notice to leave the city in forty-eight hours. Aispura now says he will fight. If he does not evacuate tho city the national troops will try to dislodge him, and unless the United States troops inter fere the city will stand a poor chenco. If Airnura remains in the city the struggle will bo indefinitely prolonged. There is no doubt in the public mind horo _ut that the asfcly of tho city is due to tho prompt action of Commander McCalla in uking ebargo of theplaco at the time when formidable barricades were being erected and preparation on a large scale were going on to resist the national troops when they arrived.

The Louisiana Senator » Little Too Hasty. Washington, May 3.—Senator Eustti sharply criticised by all the prominent demo crate here,and finds no sympsthising^iouls,ex cept among that little band of growlers who linger forever in the barrooms and sneer at the administration, whether republican or democratic. Senator Ransom says the admin istration is doing well; that its caution is coni- mexdable, and that it will eventually bo everywhere commended, lie thinks the ap- i ointmentof Kelley and Morgan wero mistakes but that the administration cannot be expected to be infallible. Senator Morgan says i “I have no right to oiticizeMr. Eustia's action, but it certainly shows a bad spirit as well as bad taste. If the interview is correct. I think Mr. EustJs is « very candid man. Ho could oppose the pres ident** nominations in tbe senate, but I think bo is too big a man lor anything like that. No matter what his opposition to the president might be, he would hardly oppose himself to an la- dividual whom the president had selected for office merely for a personal grievance. A re- publican would cot do that. I havo known Mi. Eustis for a long time, and he has always been an ablo and a successful man, aud I hardly think ho will attompt to turn things upside down. 1 have perfect confidence In tho new president, and believe his polioy is ap piovcd by the people ol the south.” Sepstor Crockroll says that “he who expects tbe offices of the government to be changed in a year is foolish.” WhUo he would ba glad to lee more celerity of action in romorsli, he saya that the warp and woof of the government is republican, and that it uses its intrenched power to resist tbo democrats. Of tho presi dent he say•: “He is a good and strong man; I am constantly astonishedjn my contact with him by his wide and intimate knowledge of every subject with which ho has any possibil ity of dealing, ;i venture the assertion that ho knows more of the workings of tho depart ment and of the whole system and maohinory of our government at this moment, when not two months since his inauguration have elapsed, than any other president knew in a year thereafter. When I called on him, in company with Mr. Rroadhead, for tho purpose of having tho letter sent to Franco in official connection with the Frenoh spoliation claim, I took a copy of tho law relating to the subject. I found that the president haa in his heed a perfect digest of tho law and of cvery- tbiag+iktrtainiag- to •hedsrtn. On aneiksr occasion I went to tee him about an unimpor tant position in tho treasury department, the Incumhent of which I had gooi reason lelievo deserved removal. Tbe ouo was no sooner alluded to than it wu evident that the president was familiar with it throughout. In conclusion, 1 tell you that, ia my judgment, the administration is bound to go slowly.” Senator Call says: “I do not think that tho president merits this criticism.” Senator Vance says i “Ol course I do not share In any degree the sentiments imputed to Senator Eustis.” Representative Cobb, ot Indiana, lays that 8enator Eustis did not express the sentiments of tbo doraocratie party. Repre sentatives MorrUon, Holman, and others all range themselves with the administration,and gainst Eustis. STRANGE COMBST1C REVELATIONS vised oltba receipt of such an order.
