Whittcmoro, the cadet peddlor,
rose in tho Senate on Tuesday, and
in reply to charges published in The
Neecs and Courier that ho had
been in tho habit Of quaffing cham
pagno and smoking choice Havanas
at tho public expense, made an ems
phatic denial of every accusation pre-
ferrod against him. Ho then pro-
.ceeded to make Il bitten attack upon the
proprietors of ZNe ,Neacs a,ad Coz
rier, in which ho read certain letters
purporting to be from Messrs.
Riordan and Dawson, relative to
tn @ public printing and certain 9TH
er matters, by which ho cndeavored
to connect them with the corrupt
practices Of the ring. The Neaus an0
Couricr promptly repelled the
charges, aud Captain Dawson has
tened to Columbia to demand IN in
vcstiSation. He makes u good do
fence. We trust the public will
defer judgment until further devel
opments are made. IHe Ncaus and
Courier has been of immense SER
vice in overthrowing corruption, and
its reputation should not bo in tho
hands of every baflled Radical ring
thief. While q number of the best
people of the State oppose, The .Ncscs
and Courier, it is well known that
all tho Radical thieves, big and little,
denomceit bitterly. Whittcmorc is
a swect-scented scoundrcl to be pre-
sorring charges against anybody.
We predict that ho will soon bo in
the ponitontiary, where he can be
slime nobody.

The War in Europe.

The war in Europe up to Wed-
nesday had not assumed any new
phases. The Russians had opened
siege on Kars, q town in Turkish
Armenia.
England and France will remain
neutral unless Russia besieges Con"
stantinople.
Forty thousand Circassians have
joined the Turkish army of the
Danube.
The Russians are strongly fortify-
ing Galatz, and are putting together
small gunboats brought there in
sections.
Tho "Golos," Russian news-
paper, has been suspended two
months for attacking the admins
tration.
The Russians, fearing England's
occupation of Crete, have ceased to
excite patriotism there, and have
stopped sending supplies.
Hungary sympathizes strongly
with the Turks.
The Sultan is on his way to
Shumla, in Bulgaria, one Of the keys
to Constantinople.
The Khedive of Egypt Will assist
tho Sultaaa with money and troops.
The London Times continues to
deprecate unnecessary alarm, and
says that even if we had the most
positive assurance that Russia i'm
tended to besiege Constantinople,
there would be ample time to take
needful; precaaltion after her army
crossed the Danube, but to assum Q
that the Russian leaders have any
such design is to suppose they have
taken leave Of their senses. It is
not Turkey alone they woul& have
to meet, nor Turkey and England,
but the whole of Western Europe.
We may safely assume that Russia
is not altogether devoid of common
sense, and meanwhile we may keep
ourselves cool.
