his authority claims Florida for Tilden, is
as much mistaken in the politics of Sawyer

condition of affairs, the desperate lead
ers OF the Republican party have got up
another scarecrow in the shape Of
Southern wal claims. From carefully

ments compiled from the records, as
shown by Col. Ellis in his speech in this
town a few evenings ago, it appears
that the claims of this description here
t"fore presented to Congress, most OF
which were in behalf of Republican
claimants, amount in the aggregate
to about twenty millions of dollars.
OF this sum, thanks to the late "Con-

Of those already passed upon

Republican XLIII Congress, and in no

who did not stand by the Union during
the war. Bnt we have recently read a
speech delivered at Marietta, Ohio, by
Senator Sherman, and which is being
Circulated as a campaign document, in
which he rather feeblv asserts that the
. mount involved in two southern claim
bills, introduced In the last House by
Mr.. Wiltshire of Arkansas, and Mr..
Riddle of Tennessee, is no less than
tWo thousand Jour hundred and ten mit-
IONS of dollars. Now WI will venture
the assertion that Mr. Sherman does
not place the slightest confidence in his
own preposterous figures, and that be
knew them to be a gigantic fraud.
However. he evidently thinks that it
will be a good enough scarecrow until
after the election, but we opine he un-
dsrrates the intelligence of the Ameri-
can people, who will not be very apt to
take his bare assertion against the fig
ures of the record.

EUROPEAN NEWS.

Our European dispatches yesterday
were to the effect that England has de-
cided to leave the Ottoman Empire to
its fate. She will hold Constantinople
to the last extremity, but the territory
an be divided up among whatever
nations are able to subdue and hold it.
Eng!and's plan now is to make Con-
s'antinople a second Gibraltar. Her
Majesty's Cabinet Thursday night re-
solved that the invasion of Turkey by
the Russians shall he a signal for the
occupation of Constantinople by thirty
thousand troops and the movements
of the whole fleet of ironclads in
Beyska bay to the Golden Horn. To
provide for such emergency transports
will at once carry three corps of regu-
lars to Malta, where enormous quanti-
ties of military stores and provisions
have been accommodating for months
past. Should the non-b elligerent Pow
ers, such as Germany, Austria and
France oppose Britain's policy, there
will be the occupation Of Egypt. This
course il rendered necessary by the
vital importance to Great Britain Of the
Suez Canal. Some prominent English
men say the Khedive would be very
willing to hold his title under the SOW
ereignty of the English throne, much
the same az do the royal princes
of india. The command of the British
troops in the East has been consigned
to Major General Sir Charles William
Dunbar Starely. Il. G. b., an expert.
enced Indian officer. One hundred
and fifty half pay officers of the British
army have applied for permission to
join the Turkish forces.
A general impression appears to
prevail in London that a general war
is improbable. Nevertheless, it is be-
lieved that the existing war must con-
time unless Turkey comedies TO Rus
sia's demand, and it may be made to
linger along slowly until Russia shall
be assured that its formidable invasion
of Turkey will not bring her into col
lision with the other Powers. That
the Gar is unwilling to push the cam
paign until assured of this, is evidenced
by the diplomatic movements
at the continental capitals, the Czaro-
visit, etc.
Meantime none of the Powers have
an alliance with either side,
but all hold themselves in reserve.
England alone having committed her
self to the Turkish armistice PROPOSE
lion, the rest are free to urge the Porte

warlike preparations evidently look
only to a readiness OF protecting her
Indian interests against the possible

ed Outrage.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 81.
The publication of the so called
black list, containing the names of
over 1900 foreign born citizens whose
naturalization papers are imperfect,
in consequence of which their votes
will he challenged and thrown out, has
given rise to an immense amount ofex-
element and hard swearing. The
Democrats assert that the publication
of the list was part OF a deliberate plan
to crush out Democratic voters; that
the plot was intended to hit the labor
ing men of the city who had no time TO
spend three or four hour at the polls
furnishing proof their being American
citizens. They also charge that the
scheme was got up by the Republican
managers, with the view OF keeping
it quiet until just before the election,
when the trap would have been sprung,
but that the Democrats got wind OF it
and forced the publication at once.
The Republicans claim that the
action of the Inspectors OF Election
is only what is required by law or
justice; that there are hundreds of
men being registered here who have
no DuSfD6SS DcI0 hu hoNO O'iNOiitiy
been imported. The black list will be
the means of stopping this sort of a
thing and put the election on a fair
basis.
Upon the street a good deal Of growl-
ing was heard concerning this vote
quashing proclamation from persons
in both parties. The list is said
by those who have examined 1t to
contain about four hundred Repub-
licans and thirty. eight hundred DEM
ocrats.
The nominees OF both parties are
taking active measures to supply the
defects in registration as rapidly as
possible.
