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withdrawn in Packard's favor.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

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

Odiuau and Reouf Pasha have be

Turkish and Russian soldiers fratern

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.
