Paris and London have urgent orders from
their government to entreat France and Eng.
land to abstain from any demonstr alton, at
least until the return Of the maritime media
torial mission to Naples; and further, that It
is said the estern powers, in consideration
for Austria have given their assent
TheYetis considerable letter writing but no
new facts respecting the Belgrade boundary
question.
The German papers assert that Great Brit
ain has addressed q second note to Russia on
the subject of the Isle of Serpents, more
peremptory than the first; but that the result
is unknown.
Great Britain has proposed as a plan of ad-
lustment Of the Montenegrin difficulty: that

than half a century II is most gratifying result that
It's great servant and leader has been riumphany elect
edan event be celebrated the Of the nation
from destruction But great this victory is there Is
still another which ranks it in importance and sodi6es
the conquest The law-making greater than the ad-
illustrative power and therefore II is matter OF still
greater congratuaon that entire change has been
made the political complexion Of the national legis-
lAture Congress has been wresed from the control OF
the enemies OF free government aud the legislation Of
the Union will be In the hands Of the democracy. The
democrats will have large majority in both houses
and every branch Of the government will be under their d.
recton The fifty anti-Nebraska factioniss who disturb
the present Congress- who mady resisted the Senate bill
for the paccauon Of Kansas and all other pro-
posed to terminate the difficulties there and who insaney
opposed the armysppropriation BILL and ready to
the army and military establishments Of the country bro
ken up and disbanded have been Indignantly hurled from
the councils Of the nation and their places supplied by
liable democrats The democrats will have majority from
10 in the Senate and from rs to 35 in the House Of
Representatives In the elections Of Sc they have gained
ten in New York. ten In Pennsylvania eight in Ohio four
Indiana in New Jersey, two in Missouri aud one in

the policy Of Mr. Buchanan This Is triumph, indeed
triumph won in the sunshine play ola holiday sport
in the unobstructed march Of osenatous and
mental troops, but in struggle against malignant
enemies in the bitcres strife that has occurred in the
history Of the democratic party-a contest that will be
remembered aggravated in the trial and decisive
in the result than the conflict between the republican and

WHAT HAS BECOME OF THE AB0LITIONISTS?
The New York Journal of Commerce, in the subjoined
the above question: furnishes some facts and
figures which tend in remarkable to enhance the
of the victory which has just been achieved by
the democratic party;
"At the presidential election In 1884, Brney the abolition
candidate received &C. 304 votes of which nearly half
from New York. Pennsy vanis and Ohio At the preden-
al election in 1852, John p Hale the abolition candidate
receive 57 96 votes of which 65 535 from the
mentioned States At the election, the States
gave Gerrt Smith the abolition candidate only 1874 votes
viz New York, l60; Pennsy lyania, ls Ohio 1856 Now
the question is what has become of the 80 900 abson
in the above States who voted for Birney in 1874 or the
600 who voted for Hale in 1887 Are they all aoi
except 1884 what has become of them? Surely cannot
be that they part and parcel of the republican
party and that they have found there csngeniL
home than their soil for told by individuals
party that they he individually eminenty
sentative and it is not easy for vinegar and nitre dwell
geher unity. But leaving this nice point be settled by
the parties in interest will only remark that the abo-
now that of the leading opposition candidate
Scott would have within So 900 CO. 900 votes Of
election Again If in 1874 the abolition vote had been add
ed now that of the leading opposition candidate Henry
CLAY would been elected instead Of Polk Yet in 1856
Buchanan elected by than 500 900 majority
leading opposition candidate, although the latter lived
the united support OF all the abolitionists except
handful 1t to take this into the before
justly appreciate the greatness Of the triumph accv.
ed by the democrats"

THE BANQUET OF THE PENNsYLyANIANs
CINCINNATI.

The Cincinnati Enquirer OF Thursday last has short
but glowing account Of the banquet recently given that
city, by resident Pennsylvanians in honor the election Of
Mr. Buchanan We make the following extract:
"The reunion Of the Of the noble old Keystone state
Tuesday very joyous and edifying affair. The
engagements admirable scale, and the whole
duct OF the s in good The speakers were
markedly feicitouS 1t late hour before the
and responsive speeches got through with
consequently, the veest feature in such arsthe

"The speeches struck US as admirable. Those Of Or.
Fries, Messrs Quinn, Long, and Gallagher all PennsyA
mans, appropriate, judicious aud pointed.
George H. Pendleton valiant young member Of Con-
gress from the 6rst district paid very eloquent tribute
the beauties Of Pennsylvania country, her greatness
State, her noble historic associations and her never a

peeoh awoke great enthusiasm In the company by whom
well by all the democrats OF the STAFF his recent gal
liant contest and virtual victory is held among nobe
achievements Of the campaign.
The toast to victorious neighbors Indiana and W
noS very felicitousy responded by the Hon Mr.
Marshall from the southern district Of Illinois, EGYPT
The speeches Of the Hon. George L. Pugh Judge
Hart very spirited and appropriate Our bold and
egeto senator spoke out with his usual fearless and
earnenes uPbraidng the weak kneed OF party urging
upon the democracy Of Ohio open manly progressive
and national course, and ascribng past tho
timid, hesitatng conduct Of Of politicians.
Judge Hart in his pleasant STYLE referred the achieve

State built his cabin.
