The Massachusetts legislature defeat ed the prohibitory liquor bill by a vote of 118 to 93. their number the following were the pall bearers who bore the honored sol dier and citizen to his last resting place : G. B. Lake, J. W. Savage, E. Wakely, E. Eatabrook, B. E. B. Ken nedy, G. W. Doane, J. I Eedick, and G. Armstrong. European Xeirs. A synopsis of U. S Senator Howe's great speech, is printed on the fourth page of our paper this week. The State Journal intimates that the greenback paper of that city is in spasms and will "kick the bucket" within a brief period. The storm prevailed over a great part of the northwest. In Illinois there were heavy snow, rain and sleet, yet the fruit buds are reported as un harmed. It is said that SenatorKirkwood, of Iowa, is. a little crooked sometimes In his voting ways in the Senate. We always thought Kirkwood true as steel that he could not be swerved in duty to the Republican party. Late reports say Packard's prospects for appointment as Collector of Cus toms at New Orleans have greatly Im proved within a few days. About all the candidates for the position have withdrawn in Packard's favor. Some of the big Hayes papers have extremely witty things to say regard ing Howe's speech, aud others are cruelly sarcastic, but as the Senator's positions are impregnable none are fools enough to undertake a logical refutation. The temperance oause at Lincoln, lost valuable ground by a division in the ranks in a partisan dquabblo over the municipal election. If people ir respective of party would meet at temperance convocations on the plat form of temperance, and at the polls as Republicans, Democrat and nation als, voting their respective tickets as freemen should.they would meet and aot with more sense and better suc cess morally and politically than to do otherwise. Emilio Caatelar, in a late speech to the Spanish Cortez, urged an increase of the army aud a participation in the present European complications. He said that Spain had two wounds, one being at Gibraltar and the other on the Tagus. Gibraltar, he insisted, should, as a part of Spain, belong to It. He alsosaid thut the German and Latin races would ultimately fuse, an intimation probably of his expecta tion of future aid from Bismarck in realizing Spanish autonomy "Gad" is one of the prominent can didates for Secretary of State, and to all appearance is likely to capture the prize. Hastings Journal. O, give us a breeze. We believe that office can be tilled with better material. Tccumseh Chieftain. We are willing to trust such things to the wisdom and discretion of a Ttepublican convention, and should B. D. Slaughter get the nomination we could give him cordial support. ""Gad is a young man of sterling qual ities of head aud heart. But we don't Want any more Bruno Tzschuck in ours. The cool judgment of most republi cans, after betting Howe's speech in print and having a day to talk it over, is that he has made a great mistake. Springfield Republican. That was what they said about Conkling after the Rochester conven tion when he opened the war on Hayes. Yet that war saved the re publican party in New York, and Howe's speech Is of the same sort. Cincinnati limes. It is never a "great mistake" or any other kind of a mistake, to tell the truth as well and straight as Howe and Conkling have told it. Another moBt bare outrage was com mitted by the Democrats in Congress, on the 28th ult., by unseating Field of Massaohussetts, and putting Dean, his Democratic competitor, in the place. In every contest for a seat in this Congress, the Democratic con testant has been successful. It does not make the least difference about the vote or the majority obtained by the Republican, If his opponent contests he gets the seat. The Confederates have possession of Congress and they are going to keep possession, in utter disregard of majorities. There seems to be a conflict of au thority at BIsmarok, D. T. A dis patoh says Judge Stewart arrested Ansiey Gray, attorney, for contempt of court, and sent him to jail ; the Mayor ordered his release, when the Judge sent him up again for six days. The bar petitioned Governor Penning ton to pardon Gray, and as quick as lightning came a pardon from Yank ton at midnight. Gray now begins a suit for $10,000 damages for false Imprisonment, with Stewart's arrest and lodgment in jail as the sequel. Stewart, on the other hand, propos es to find out what authority Gov. Pennington has to issue a pardon in such a case. The London Times, In a leading ar ticle lH6t week says: "Russia has adopted an utterly indefensible atti tude, and, unless she Withdraws, it may bo necessary for us to be prepar ed to fully assert our rights." Lord Derby has tendered his resig nation as Secretary of Foreign Af fairs, which has been accepted by the Queen to take effect as soon as a suc cessor is appointed. It is thought that Lord Lyons or the Marquis of Sa's burry will succeed Lord Derby. Troops and material are being got in readiness at Kingston, Jamaica, for transportation to England. A special dispatch from London says it is stated that that a Russian array of 200,000 men is forming at Khokand destined to operate against India. A Constantinoplespecialsays: "It is thought Safvet Pasha will request England to withdraw her fleet, as Russia and Turkey are now allies. The Russians have issued a procla mation inviting the Mussulmans to return to their homes in Bulgaria, and warning the Bulgarians to preserve tranquility. There is a bitter feeling of dislike springing up between Roumanians and Russians. The latter are very tyrannical. A Vienna correspondent says, "a sudden and unaccountable change in the government's attitude is reported. It is said Count Andrassy has only been feigning concurrence with the court party, and is now preparing to oppose Russia openly, with the entire Hungarian party at his back." Russia has contracted for the deliv ery of GOO new locomotives, aud 13, 312 railroad cars, by the first of May. Measures have also been taken for the laying of a second track on ail the railways running south, and to the Black Sea. A great number of loco mbtive engineers, and railway labor ers have been engaged in Belgium, Denmark, and other neutral States. This would indicate that preparation for war is not all on the side of Eng land. The Russian General, Ignatieff, failed In his recent visit to Vienna to obtain a promise from Austria to sup port Russia. The Russians are fortifying lines of Chataija and erecting entrench ments at all,6trategical points. Os mau, Fuad and Reouf Pasha have gone to the Turkish camp at Maslak. Moukhtar Pasha has been appointed chief of the general stall", aud Osmau Pasha commander of Constantinople. Odiuau and Reouf Pasha have be come more Russian than Euglish. Turkish and Russian soldiers fratern ize, the latter going about Constunti- noj.lir in uuifoim vltbuui luvuKlug animosity. If war comes England must contemplate the possibility of having to fight Turkey and Russia. At least she would get from Turkey one-sided neutrality of little or no substantial use. A cable dispatch to the Inter Ocean from London, March 30th, says : The Pall Mall Gazette of yesterday (Fri day) afternoon printed an article en titled "The New Turn of Events," in which, after reviewing Lord Derby's resignation, it says: "We fear that it must be assumed that diplomacy has sniiJ its beet word. England and I Russia are too definitely committed to the positions respectively assumed to allow any withdrawal. The differ ence is so essentially one of principle, that it Is impossible forany third pow er to suggest an acceptable comprom ise. The advance of the Russian troops to the Bosphorus and to GalU poli may be Immediately expected." These words gain great significance when ills remembered that the Pall Mall Gazette is the property of the Rt. Hon. W. H. Smith, First Lord of the Admiralt. A special from Constantinople, March 27, via Syra, sa3's : "General Nelikoff has addressed a note to the Porte demanding the withdrawal of British fleet from the neighborhood of Constantinople. Safvet Pasha com municated the note to Minister Lay ard, who, injaccordance with instruc tions of the British Government, re plied that the fleet would remain un til after the departure of the Russians from the environs of Constantinople. The Porte handed the reply to Gener al Nelikoff without remark." There is considerable excitement in Russian official circles over the action of the Euglish Cabinet calling out the reserves. War is now looked upon as inevitable. The press places the re sponsibility on Eugland. A London dispatch of the 29th says, It is reported the Russian army about Constantinople is being reinforced. There is great excitement in this eitj' and throughout the dominion gener ally over the prospect of war with Russia, the course pursued by the government being generally applauded.

Their newspaper organs and their orators have "been making lpud noise over the millions which the rigid Democratic economy has saved to the public treasury but the numerous deficiency bills, which they are now engaged upon and which have resulted from their blundering work in cutting down appropriations, show their much boasted economy to be a sham and a fraud.

Strickland "was a good soldier In the war for the Union, and won the stars on his shoulder by his bravery and merltor Boua conduct on the field of battle. He became a citizen of Nebraska In 1854, and ha ever 6ince been an hon ored and useful citizen. Being a re spected and able lawyer, the Bar As sociation of Omaha attended to the preliminaries of the funeral, and of Judge Whitakei's refusing to re lease Gen. Anderson, on demand of the prosecutor, Ogden, forarehearlng of the case, the Supreme Court of Louisiana made the following order.

Mr. Sherman has the frankness to admit that lie erred in his opinion as to the effect of the silver bill, aud he sets a strong example to the goldite newspapers which theyought to have honesty enough to follow.

A young Georgian married a girl sixteen years of age. The father of the girl claimed her as a minor, and the husband claimed her as hi wife. A Georgia judge decided that both were right. tie ueclueu that ice woman was legally the young man's wife; but that, as she was a minor, she must remain with her fathpr un til she was twenty-one years old. A glance at the map will show that the Russian lines along the Sea of Marmora and the Bosphorus are bo arranged that the divisions could, with Turkish co-operation, posess the whole coast line, from the Dardanelles to tho Black Sea, in a few hours. In fact, they could do this without Turk ish co-operation. When it is remem bered that all of tho Russian army which orotsed tho Balkans is still near Constantinople, aud that the rem nants of the different Turkish armies are being concentrated there, presum ably witli Russian approval, the situ ation, to bay the least, has a queer as pect. It must be admitted that England has some grounds for feariuir that there are seeretarrangements between Russia'and Turkey. It may be re membered that there were secret pro visions iu the famous treaty of Tilset between Napoleon, Alexander, and the Sultan. By the open treaty it was agreed to restore the Danube princi palities to Turkey, but tho secret trea ty entered into at the same time pro vided that Russia should take the whole of Wallachia and Moldavia, and that the British Ambassador should be expelled from Constantino ple.

The House Committee on Post-offices and Post-roads has discovered that one mail contractor receives from the Government $40,000 for a contract whioh lie sub-lets for $13,000. A bill recently passed the House, how ever, which entirely does away with this system of sub-letting. The general verdict seem to be that the speech of Senator Howe, Monday, was the ablest effort of his life, both those who agree aud those who disa gree on the policy of the arraignment coinciding in thisoplnion. Mr. Howe is a cool and dispassionate reasoner, and the evident candor aud sincerity of his utterances, a3 well as the unde niable nature of the facts presented, relievo his speech of the flavor of un due bitterness which it might other wise possess. That his earnest utter ances will strike a responsive chord in the heart of Western Republicans, it is unnecessary to state. Thfer Ocean. Purchasing Horses for the old Country.
