PLYMOUTH, Eng, Oct 20. 0.-Orders
have been received at Davenport dock
yard to complete repairs on four turret
steamships, Cyclops, Hydras, Gordon,
and Hecate, each carrying four guns,
and the ironclad steamer Agincourt, car
ryirg % guns. Three composite gun
vessels are building here and two others
in private yards are being prepared for
commissions
Cabinet met yesterday. All the min.
listers were present.
The Times says the meeting was rem
dered necessary by the critical state of
affairs in Europe, for the negotiations
which have occupied the last twelve
months are virtually at an end, and war
between Russia and Turkey is supposed
to be unavoidable. The Cabinet did
nothing which eau Justify prevailing fears
of the British participating in the war.
The Times Paris correspondent says
there is no doubt of accord between
Russia, Germany and Austria. 1t can
be easily seen that England and France
will not break neutrality; therefore Rus.
sia has only Turkey to face.
LONDON, Oct, 20.--A dispatch to
Reuters Telegraph Co., from CONSTANT
nople says Gen. Ignateii, Russian Ambas-
sador, will to day present his credentials
to the Sultan.
1t is believed that negotiations are
about to reopen between the Porte and
Ambassadors of the Powers, ON the basis
of the English proposals.
A Times special from Belgrade reports
that it was rumored there yesterday tha
20, 900 Russians had crossed Preutarch
The French, Italian and Austrian Con
suls- Generals went to Orseva to ascertain
whether the report was true, No confirm

The Irish Address.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. 20.-It il
found that court etiquette requires
that the addres from the Irish people tC
the President of the United States
which was to have been presented tC
him in person b, OConner, Powell anC
Mr.. Parnell shall reach the Presiden
through Sir Edward Thornton, British
minister of the State department There
are some phrases in the address which
make it awkward for Sir Edward and al
concerned. 1t seems likely now that the
bearers ofthe address will carry it back
with them.
A dispatch from New York representa-
the Irish citizens there much disturbed
and anxiously awaiting remedy.

The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1876-11-19

The jacksonville Fla. Union Of The
sth inst says: ''The long, bitter. and
harasslDg political contest which has
ragged in this State for the past four or
five months ended last highland end
ed in a glorious and substantial Repub-
lican victory. While the returns thus
far received are comparatively meagre,
they are yet of such 4 character as to
leave no doubt of the general result.
They show large increase in the Re-
publican majorities in every Republi-
can county, while there appears to be
no corresponding increase of tie Demo-
cratic majorities in the Democratic
counties heard from. The Second Dis
trict elects Colonel Bisbee to Congress
beyond a doubt. The Republican ma
jorities in this district already heard
from aggregate nearly 5000, with Mas
sau county, which will give at least 100
more. yet to hear from. The highest
estimated Democratic majorities in the
Second District, claimed by the Demo-
Gratis themselves, do not aggregate over
$500, and their estimates are much
higher than any reasonable figures will
warrant. The Second District can fairly
be claimed for Colonel Bsbee by from
800 to 1000 majority. In the First
District, the Republicans have not held
their own, but they have made large
gains over former years. That the State
has gone for Hayes and Wheeler, for
Stearns and Montgomery, and for Pur-
man and Bisbee, is beyond question.
The highest aggregate majority which
the Democrats can secure from all the
Democratic counties in the State can
not by an honest possibility exceed 1000
while the actual Republican majorities
already reported exceed 7,700, with
Jackson, Nassau, and Monroe counties
yet to hear from. These counties ac-
cording to the votes of former years,
should give from 600 to !, 900 more to add
to the Republican aggregate. The Re
publicans have fought manfully, and
deserve the victory which has crowned
their banners

Meeting Of the Cabinet.

\ regular cabinet session Friday last
was attended by all the members aud
lasted about two hours. There Was a
general Interchange of views as to the
present political situation. Various
questions that have been raised through
out the country concerning the eligi-
bility Of certain presidential electors,
and contingencies that might arise in
connection with any possible vacancies
in the electoral vote, were Informally
discussed with a view 10 full un-
derstanding of federal and state laws
bearing upon these subjects. Subse-
quently the member rs of the cabinet visit
ed the law library of the department of
justice to consult the statutes and de-
cisions affording the desired informa-
tion. No action, however, was taken on
any of the points, as no question calling
Observation-Disclosures or immediate
consideration has thus far been pre-
sented

In Time Of Pence Prepare for War.

\ telegram to the New York Tribune
from Washington says: In military
and naval circles, it is believed orders
will soon beissued directing preparations
to be made for concentration of sufii-
cient force at Washington, to quiet all
apprehensions that are felt in the coun-
try Of fear Of revolution or demonstra-
tions occurring to interfere with the
counting of the electoral vote, or the
Inauguration Of the legally chosen presi-
dent Army officers state that force
of II, ,00U infantry and artillery could
in two or three weeks time be assem-
bled in the forts near Washing
ton, and well informed officers in the
navy department, say that about 80 OF
the most formidable ships of war in
service are now in harbors on the coast
between Maine and in the Mississippi,
comprising all the iron clads fitted out
when hostilities with Spain were con-
sidered imminent, all these vessels could
readily be brought to Washington If
any emergency should arise requiring
their presence 1t may be stated pcsi-
lively that the administration don't re-
gard the clustering of politicians, or the
threats of parties or newspapers, as in
dicating a purpose on the part of any
considerable body of citizens to resist
the consummation of the election in
case the legally ascertaiiied result don't
correspond with their wishes. Presi-
dent Grant and his advisers believe that
the masses of the people of both parties
will acquiesce in the result whatever it
maybe. Needless expense will not be in
Cured for groundless fears aroused by
the concentration of armed forces at
the capitol, unless n step should be re-
quired by a menace to the public peace,
which ought not to be disregarded. At
the same time, 1t may rs well be known
to all men who imagine lawlessness may
install u president whom the laws don't
elect, that any attempt in that direction
would be madness. The president, mind

The Complication in Europe.

The London Times of the 18th inst.
publishes the following in an official
form:
We believe it probable that after the
coming council at Constantinople, the
Porte will accede TO the English propos-
al for conference. Dispatches from
Berlin concur in representing that Rus
sia is raising fresh difiicnlties with re-
gard to the line ofdemarcation, demand
ing that It be pushed farther back on Dri-
na. A Berlin correspondent says it ia
expected that Turkey will place on rec
ord solemn protest against the mob
ilization of Russian troops. 1t is stated
that an order has been received at
Woolwich for forty million cartridges
to be ready in Is Sweeks and forty thous-
and ammunition boxes, in Which to
pack cartridges for transportation. A
Vienna correspondent of the Times says
the British Government is so convinced
that conference is the only means of
bringing about pacification, that it has
Observation-Disclosures possibility that
a conference may be held even without
Turkeys participation, if her refusal is
persisted in. These representations
have not been without effect ON the
Grand Vizier and the Minister of For
eign -tffairs. They seemed convinced
that Il conference is inevitable.

Dom Piatt and the Dynamite Fiend.

We sailed from Liverpool on the 14th of
October last, in the steamship Celtic.
Among the passengers, and our room
mate, was the late aad now infamous
Thomas. He was a stout man, weighing
probably $40, had tawny red hair and
beard, and wore gold mounted glasses.
We remember him as handsome, socia-
bic sort OF man, and, looking back now,
as about the last on sMpboard to select
as one capable of such crime. The facts
come to us so horribly unnatural and hid
eously grotesque that they resolve them
selves into sort Of nightmare, and we
cannot realize that the man we sat with
and talked to was the tiend events have
since proven him to have been. We had
an unusually smooth and pleasant voyage,
and about the decks young girls and
mothers and beautiful children were prom
enadipg and playing all the while in the
sunlight; and how that man could have
looked on and listened, and yet kept un-
altered or mistaken in his terrible pur-
pose, is more than we can compre-
bend.
To those who have crossed the Atlantic
in these steamships the crime is doubly
horrible. To have such freight of liv-
ing humanity suddenly hurled into eter-
nifty, leaving behind no wreck, no trace by
which the tragedy could be told, envelop-
ing the loss in an impenetrable mystery,
makes one shrink and shudder more than
any other crime known And yetthatman
ate heartily, slept soundly, and to all APP
pearance enjoyed life as happily as the
most innocent child on board, What
made the matter the more striking was
that the fiend had failed in his design on
the very people with whom he associated.
Had he succeeded in getting his internal
machine insured he would probably have
left US at Queenstown, after winding and
setting his boxed up death, and the doomed
vessel and her unotfcnding freight of pas
sengers never would have been heard OF
after Washington Capital.

PerilOus Nightmare.

Last evening a robust and gentlemanly
looking stranger arrived at the New York
Exchange. His life has been an eventtul
one, including many passages at arms
with border ruflians, his business for
many years being that Of a thief-taker.
Previous 40 entering the Exchange he
took IA couple OF drinks. Soon after seat
ing himself near the stove he dropped of
into troubled sleep One by one the
guests retired. and yet he slumbered. 1t
being near midnight the Waterman OF the
hotel concluded to awaken the sleeper and
show him up to his room. He stole 10
the strangers side. grasped him by the
shoulders, and announced that it was
time to go to bed. In a moment the slum-
berer awoke and bounded upon him, with
the exclamation: 81 will run this
ranchn Fortunately, Officer Ferring-
Nn entered at that instant and
joined in the struggle, which for some
minutes was terrific. They had great
difficulty in preventing the stranger from
securing pistol which was in his belt.
Pennington finally got chance TO sound
his whistle, bringing Officer Pritchard to
the scene. About this time a change
came over the stranger, and, looking up,
he exclaimed, as if puzzled: Is itpos-
sible that ! am drunk sr dreaming?
Where am =" Then seeming to take it
all in at glance, he asked II those
around him were Officers. Being an
swered in the affirmative, he accompanied
them without further resistance. Upon
arriving at the City Hall he gave brief
synopsis of his life, and said that at the
time he was clapped on the shoulder by
! the watchman OF the hotel he was IN the
midst OF terrible nightmare, in which
he fancied himself surrounded and at
tackled in a Kansas bar-room; that he was
not really awake until after the second
policeman arrived All hands were sat

graduated themselves that the conse-
quences were not mere serious.-ISdn

PHILOSOPHY.

So soon the end must come.
Why waste in sighs our breathf
so coon our lips are dumb,
SO swift comes death.
SO brief the time to smile,
Why darken we the air
With frowns and tears, the while
We nurse despair.
Hold firm the suffering will
And bravely thrust II back;
Fight with the powers OF Ill.
The legions black.
Stand in the sunshine sweet
And treasure every ray,
Nor seek with Stubborn feet
The darksome way.
Have couragei Keep good cheer
Our longest time Is brief.
To those who hold you dear
Bring no more grlef.
But cherish blisses email,
Grateful for least deli ut
That to your lot doth fall,
However slight.
And 10! all hearts will bring
Love to make glad your days;
Biessings untold will spring
About your ways.
So shall life bloom and shine,
Lifted Its pam above,
Crowned with this gift divine,

Tho New York Thie Y 80.

Ex-Judge Fithian, son-in-law of Rich
ard b. Connolly, has purchased villa
at Ferney, about five miles from Geneva,
Switzerland, and will turn it into mag
nificent place for his own and his friends
delectatlon. ''The price paid" says a
note to the New York Graphic, "was
4O0, 900 francs ($so, ,ee0), and it will cost a
good deal more before he is done with it.
UpholsLerers from Paris wild make it a
gorgeous clubhouse; pictures of the
Becker and Gerome stamp and sculpture
wild adorn it; the grounds will be turned
into an Elysium; and being SO near the
beautiful Lake OF Geneva, tile place may
console tor the loss of the old Americus
clubhouse looking out on Long Island
Sound. The ex-comptrolier was seen
nereabouts the other day, and likely
enough more Of the old guard wall turn
up soon. They have quantities Of money
at their disposal; and Fithian is proba-
bly, acting as their business agent" We
shall probably hear from Boss Tweed in
this locality presently; and shortly
thereafter somebody Will put the Swiss
Republic in ais vest pocket and run
away With it.
