THE PROPOSED ARMrsrroK.

-
LONDON, Oct. 10.-A dispatch dated
Constantinople Oct. 10, evening, says
AT the sitting of the extraordinary
Council to-day 1t was decided that
Turkey should grant an armistice
for six months, viz, until the end OF
March. 1877. The decision and its
conditions will be communicated to
the European powers tomorrow.
The Porte is now prepared to carry
out the promised reforms. 1t re-
mains to be seen what Servia will say
to the Unexpectedly long armistice,
but Minister Ristics said only to-day
according to a telegram from Bel
grade, that the Servian Government
had for some time desired an armis-
tice for a month or so, and would
doubtless accept one"
LONDON. Oct. 1O.-The Times, in its
leading editorial this morning, says
IF it is true that an armistice has
been granted, there is still hope for
peace, and Turkey has placed herself
right Should Servians refuse armis-
tice she would forfeit all claim to con-
sideration. If this armistice is con-
cluded there will be sufficient time
for patient and thorough consider
alton, and time is OF incalculable val
ue for war, and war on a gigantic
scale will certainly follow, unless
some scheme for good government
in the provinces Of Turkey is guaran-
teed."
THE LAST OF LEE.
SALT LAKE, Utah, Oct. 10.-At
Beaver, Utah to-day, Judge Bore
man passed sentence upon John d.
Lee for participation In the Mountain
Meadow massacre nineteen years ago.
In doing so he called attention to the
atrocity of the crime; the inability
heretofore of the authorities to pro-
cure evidence that the conspiracy to
murder was widespread: that he was
finally offered up as sacrifice to popu-
lar indignation, but that others equal
ly guilty might hereafter expect pun
ishment. The prisoner having the
right under the laws of the Territory
to choose death by hanging, shooting,
or beheading, and having chosen to
be shot, was sentenced to be shot TO
death Jan. 26. 1877.

in the whisky frauds. One of McKee's
who is i'm the city, has said

during this week 1t is quite proba-
BILE that Avery's pardon would follow
should Mckee be pardoned
