THE EAsTE Ry QUESTION.
The Porte Obstinate

CoNsTANTINoPLE, Jan. AT Monday s
sitting of the conference, the Turks in addi-
ton to the points already mentioned, refused
to accept the proposal that the official language
of each district should be that of the majority
of inhabitants thereof. The Marquis of Sails
buy addressed the conference with warmth,
condemniug the obstinacy of the Porte. AL
though another sitting is appointed for Thurs
day, but little hope OF an understanding is en-
tertained. The plenipotentaries lave intimated
their intention, II the Porte persists in resisting
the proposals Of the powers, to quit CONSTANT
nople.
Reports are confirmed that Ignateif and
Salisbury will quit Constantinople Immediately
if the Porte refuses the proposals OF the pow
ers. Military preparations are proceeding with
activity

Gov. Hayes Message.

COLUMBUS. O., Jan. 2.-The General As
sembly met this afternoon. The annual mes.
sage of Gov. Hayes was presented. 1t shows
that the local indebt edness of Ohio now is S36.
59,987. The reimbursable debt is S6.4S4 303.
and the irreducable debt 50, 2O7,716. The mes.
sage in pointed manner suggests that while
separate political parties seem necessary to
national politics, yet there is no more reason
for the antagonsm OF political parties in NUM-
cipal government than in a bank or a railroad
company. In the administration Of such a
government all honest citizens should cooper.
ate. Among other recommendations are the
following: That a registration law should be
passed. and that an amendment to the consti-
tuition providing for holding the state election
IN the years in which the Presidential election
occurs should be presented to the people.
