The EASTERN QUEsTIoN--AN ASSURANCE
FROM Count yANpRAssY.--PeSth, May 2l.-,
The Austrian delegation has been engaged
in discussing the estimates Of the Foreign
Office. At the sitting yesterday Count An
Grassy, in reply to questions, said y 81 am
now able TO state that the peace Of Europe
will not be disturbed. The proposed re-
forms have been accepted by Europe and
Turkey, and joyiully greeted by the insur-
gents, who now only desire guarantees for
their execution. The present action OF the
Powers is directed towards the peaceful re-
mova OF obstacles preventing the accom-
plishment OF the reforms" Count An
Grassy said he was personally convinced
that England would join in the agree
ment when the purely pacific Intentions OF
the Powers became manifest. The result OF
the conference at Berlin was that the Powers,
setting aside NIL individual interest," had re-
solved to make the maintenance OF Eu-
ropean peace their guiding principle, and
to confer together on each case as it might
arise. t.a.
The Count declared that he would guar
tee that no injury to Austro-Hungarian in
tercsts would result from the conference.
He repudiatcd the charges OF Austrian con-
niyance in the insurrection, and opposed
the idea OF military occupation by Austria
OF the insurgent provinces. Austria, he
said, in conclusion, had no enemies, stood
on the best terms with all foreign countries,
and might confidently anticipate that her
efforts to defend peace would be SUCCESSFUL.

peculation, and every species Of official
malieassnce; these will all be bulletined
that the world may know them in good
time. The Democrats feel that their
policy OF secret investigation has been
triumphantly vindicated in the success
Of Mr.. Clymer's committee. The GRIM
inals they are after have not committed
their dark deeds In daylight, or on hill
tops, and there could be no more absurd
farce than to Investigate them with ban
ners and tomtoms. 1t is not probable
that sny futute discovery will possess
the unique e1ormity, and be followed
by the tragic denouement that made
the BIknap Hhorrorn so conspicuous.
In the camp Of the enemy every effoIt
is made to distract attention from the
real trail. The same tactics Of intimi-
dation that were employed by the
whisky-ring, are now employed here by
what was supposed to be the more re-
spectacle pertien Of the press and states
men Of the paftJ OF "moral ideas.n In
their frantic desperation, they catch at
such siraws es the departure Of the wit
ness Marsh, and invent baseles5 lies
about gentlemen OF the. investigating
comfilittee, and, especially about the
chairman, Mr. kClymeF, VINO has been
the consnieuous and able leader Of this
investigation. There has bsen power
ful effort by press and party to intiml-
date him ,iatO silence or lax pursuit,
with no other fcsiilt than to elicit his
latent strength, courage and deterflir1a-
ton, as we'll as sterling ability as a
speaker aud dehater, which o contempt
for aeefage. nGtofist5 has treFented him
from displaying. Never was man placed
in a more trying and delicate
situation than Hon. Hester Clymer, OF
Reading, Pennsylvania, chairman OF
the committee on war claims, and the
gentleman to whom tho country i5 in-
Indebted for the Belknap erpose. He
was not only college mate, but 2 room
mate at Princeton Of the falleh secre-
tary Of war. They then, and have ever
since, maintained the most friendly re-
lations, and the conflicting bitter emo
tions of the man, when he was called
upon in this double ordeal of statesman
and friend, may ither be imagined nor
described, they could be felt only by
him. How rrisnfulIy he did his whole
duty, ignoring individual ties and re-
cognizing only his moral responsibility
to the millions, was an exhibition of an
tique virtue too rare in these evil days
to be overlooked.

The Payne Bill Agreed TO as n Finale ON
the Financial Question.

WAsRISGToN, March 15.-The DEM
ocratic financial caucus was in session
until nearly twelve o'clock tonight, and
finally agreed upon the Payne bill by
vote of sixiy-nine to fosty-six. This bill
provides for a gradual resumption Of
specie payments by making it the duty
OF the secretary of the treasury annually
to retain in coin an amount equal to
three per cent. of the legaI-ender notes
outstanding, to constitute resumption
fund, aud also requiring the ma
tional banks t. set aside an
amount of coin equal to three per cent.
Of their circulating notes. The bill, in
addition, provides for the repeal of 30
much Of the specie resumption act Of
Jannary IA, 1875, as designates the first
of January, 1879, as the date Of restimp-
ton. Many amendments were voted
down; including that Of the minority Of
the caucus committee for a simple re-
peal Of so much OF the act of 1875 as
fxcs the first Of January, 1879, as the
time for resumption. This received only
forty-tWO votes.
