TURKEY.
Il lac Position al the Powers.

LONDON, Jnne 19.-I5 may be inferred that
the European powers are determined to remain
spectators of what passes between Turkey and
her subjects and vassalS. This does rot mean
that the paciication of Turkey is an accom-
plished fact, or that we are on the eve of its
being effected. The insurgents do not seem
disposed to lay down their arms, nor MOntene-
gro and Serva to abandon their pret9nsions of
anneXing, the one Herzegovina and the other
Bosnia, with the consent of Turkey herself.
What is known today appears to indicate that
none OF the European powers will support the
insurgents and their neighbors, though none
will endeavor to thwart their designs, and when
the insurgents and the Porte come face to face
and Europe is seen to remain a spectator, this
instruction will perhaps finish as it began,
that is, without anybody knowing the reason
why. At present the powers are convinced
that peace will not be disturbed beyond the
frontiers ct Turkey.

from taxation, permit Bible-reading and wor-
ship in the public schools, enforce a Sabbath
rian observance of Sunday, and so FORTH Over
$1700 have been paid in to defray the expenses

FIRES.
The 81. John's Confagratien.

ST. ALBANs, June 19-There is but little
news to report concerning the st. Johns fire.
majority of the people there think the fire
was set by spark from the engine of the Bos.
ton night train, but it is claimed on the other
hand that the engineer of that train discovered
the fire as he came in. Two tramps are in Gus
toay who are thought by some to have set the
fire.
The st. Johns fire department is acknowl-
edged to be inefficient but as the water was
shut off when the fire began. of course they
had to work at disadvantage. Aid was i'm
mediately summoned from Montreal but the
steamer from that place did not arrive till H. 30
o'clock, as the firemen had to wait long time
for an order from the Mayor before they could
leave. Word was not received here till about
IL o'clock, and our iremen reached there too
late to do much good.
Only one person persisted in the flames. The
amount of losses cannot be ascertaned with
certainty, but it is said they will not exceed
$5Q0,00
Large Fire at Hudson. N. ".
HUDSON, June 19.-The White Elephant de-

The final result, however disappointing it
may prove to the supporters of the defeated
candidates, will be welcomed as tue best posi-
BILE means OF concentrating the entire strength
of the party in favor of the nominations, and
assuring the retention of the control of public
affairs in Republican hands. 1t will be very
likely to alter the programme Of the Democra-
cy, and occasion the substitution of Western
inflatlonist for Northern contractionist by the
ST. Louis convention. If so, we shall have
fair stand up fight between the friends of hon.
est money and the advocates of further tam
pering with the currency. 1t would be pre-
mature reflection upon the intelligence and
good faith of the American people to doubt tue
issue of such contest or to question the proba-
bility of the triumph of the Cincinnati ticket
Too much praise cannot be accorded to the
delegation from Maine for the fidelity and
manliness with which they conducted the cam
paign in behalf Of Mr.. Blaine. Messrs. Hale
and Frye won the regards of the whole audi
ence by the tact, discretion and courtesy which
characterized their management of the cause OF
their eminent associate. If success had
been possible under any leadership, they would
have accomplished it. They did not miss
point at any stage of the proceedings. The
sympathes of the house were with them from
first to last They were ready, adroit and fer
tile of resources, all the time. 1t was only be-
cause the feeling prevailed that another cand-
date would provoke less aDtagonism, that they
did not win the battle they fought so manfully.
If the convention had been governed by its
sympathies instead of its sense of the danger
of being carried away by them. nothing could
have prevented the nomination of James G.
Blaine 1t is of no use now to discuss the ex-
pedency of the final action; but it is creditable
to your distinguished representatives that in
their prompt acceptance of the Situation, they
showed themselves as heroic in the trying mo-
ment when victory was snatched from them as
they had when their prospects were brightest
of achieving it. YARMOUTH.

nifficnIfy with Perm

LONDON, June 19.-In the House of Com
mons tonight Mr.. Bourke. under the Secretary
of the foreign department, stated that Lord
Derby had recently written to the Peruvian
minister in regard to the continued deten ton
of the captain and mate of the Tallsman, as fol-
lows:
81 have demonstrated in the strongest manner
in the name of her Maiesty's government,
against the continued detention of the prisoners
and the unfriendly conduct of the Peruvian
government and unless the matter is brought
to sneedy termination it is impossible that
friendly relations can continue.
To this the Peruvian minister replied reca-
ptulatng the facts in the case and defending
the conduct of Peru, but not really altering the
situation.
Mr.. Bourke said in conclusion sit appears
to the government that the further detention of
the prisoners is unjustifiable and we consider it
our duty to request their immediate release"
This declaration was received by the House
by loud cheers.

WEST INDIES.
Cause of the BarbadOes Disturbance.


LONDON, June 19.-The bishop and arch dea-
con of Barbados and "a cergymen, consisting
OF the entire body of Barbados clergy, and
four Moravian missionaries, signed statement
for presentation to Earl Carnarvon the Colon
ial minister, detailing the outrageous character
of the late riot on that island. They say the
riots were not caused by suffering among the
people but by general impression among the
negroes that the land and property of the
planters would be divided among them with
the Governors consent. They state that they
cannot tell how this impression was created
but it was undoubtedly general, and the belief
is still prevalent that all this property has been
awarded to the negroes by the Queen at the
Governors instance. and is being wrongfully
withheld from them. Consequently the feeling
against all property holders is intensely bitter
and hostile, and it will require firmness and
judgment'on the part of the authorities to re-
move this impression, even if it is removable
during the present generation.
