EFFECT OF THE EUROPEAN WAR; Wash
,uqton, july 1.-THE European situation
ahsorbs what little of domestic interest is
lefI in Washington. Nothing else of IL pub
lie nature is talked of. The opinions cX-
pressed by home aud foreign officials agree
that the war will be of short duration, even
if two battles are fought, and that i'll any
event it will be Of benefit to this country
by creating large balance of trade in our
favor, by increasing the credit of our ma
tional securities abroad, and in the end low
ering the price ofgold. Secretary Boutwell,
takes this view of it, and looks for an adj
vance in the price of bonds in the European
markets ut an early day.

|" ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE IN VIRGINIA.
A letter from Harrisonburg to the Balti-
more Sun says:
"About twenty years ago an infant, aged
about five months. was abandoned by its
mother and left at the door of the residence
of q gentleman near HarlisonburS. A note
was left with the child stating that it had
been born the previous December, and re-
qucsting that it be named Maria Catharine.
1t was well dressed, and gave evidence of
having been under the care of person OF
taste and refinement. The gentleman ut
whose door the little wifi had been left,
having sufficient family of his own, sent it
to the county almshouse, where it was left
in the tender care of pauper nurses, and i'm
short while it disappeared from public in
terest and sight. Last week letter was ad-
dressed to the clerk Of Rockingham county,
from the mother Of the child, making in
ouiry as to its whereabouts. The mother
says she was compelled, from the fear of
losing her own and the child's life, to leave
it us She did, intending to reclaim 1t when
free to do SO. Twenty years have passed,
and only few weeks ago death relieved her
of this fear, and she Immediately took steps
to recover her child, who is now, il living,
q grown woman. The mother dates her
letter from the White Sulphur Springs,
where she is spending the summer. The
letter Is well dictated, but Is evidently

TeIegraphic Summary.

CHICAGO, June 9.-The tax and tar
iff bill was under consideration in the
Senate Finance Committee four " i've
hours to-day It's general characteris-
tics were discussed but no votes had on
any of it's provisions. Indications are
strong that the whole sections relating
to special or license taxes will be re-
iected SO as TO abolish all taxation un-
der that head. and do away with nu-
merous officials. The chances seem
even that the committee will set aside
Sehenck's tax bill entirely and report
Sherman's brief bill of last month.
WAsHINGToE, June 9.-The Sen
ate Com mittee on Commerce has agreed
to subsidize the Australian steamship
line, which looks favorably for the Pa
cifc mail subsidy.
The Red Cloud delegation had an in
terview with the President TO day.
Red Cloud made speech similar to his
previous one. The President promised
to use his authority for the protection
of the Indians on the Reservations as
we'll as for the whites against the red.

dietary Committee, reported bill es.

Of citizenship three years residence

zen, except in case of aliens who en-
listed in the army and who were homo
rably discharged, who may become cit,
izens upon one years actual residence
The bill was discussed at length.
Among its opponents were Sargent,
who opposed it unless the amendment
offered by Fitch, excluding Chinese
ane japanese, was agreed to. Fitch
and Axtell closed the debate. The bill
was tabled by 102 to 62.
CoNsTANTISoPLE. June o. The
fire in Pcra district is subdued. Near.
ly 10000 buildings of all sorts were
destioyed--many of the best in the
city. The loss of life greatly exceeds
the estimate. The remains OF $50 hu-
man beings were found. II is supposed
| this number represents one-half OF the
actual loss. The total pecuniary loss
is computed at twenty five million
pounds sterling The English under
