England's Position.

LoNDoN, May Is. The debate in the House of
commons on Mr.. Gladstones resolutions, against
interference i'll favor of Turkey, although it has
lost great part Of its interest by the modification
al the original propositions and the statement of
The Governments policy made by Mr. Cross on
Monday, has still been the chief political topic dur
my the week. The Conservative journals contend
That the debate will become futile and not end in
Well-conSldered opinion side or the other
but il Il mere formal counting of heads on a fore
gone conclusion They argue that it is not desir
able to embarraSs the Government at the present

Jealous partlSallS on either side are anxious to
avoid collision with Russia or Turkey and that
'rosss statement satisfied the House. because it
showed that the Ministers We're united in the de

Gadstones resolutions merely barren affirm
alton OF an abstract sentiment. The opinion of the
moderate or official wing of the Liberal marty is
very well represented by Goschens speech Friday
night. They argue that it was Il mistake of Mr.
Gladstone to put mis- third and fourth resolutions
on paper, but that Necessity for motion of some
kind shown by the eXtravagant rumors which
were disturbing the public mind. There has been
too much reticence on both sides of the House too
much drifting and too great readiness to RELY on
the chapter of accidents. Nh Gadstone's resou-
tons have helped TO clear the air by exciting dis
cussion, by eliciting an unqueStlonable protest
from the public against assisting Turkey, and
above all by causing the Government to specify
particular interests which England would defend
Inc Radicals are angry at what they term mutila
tlon and constellation of Mr. Gadstones policy
They say MIR. Crosss speech declares neutrality
benevolent toward Turkey and hostile toward
Russia that the policy of the Liberal leaders is
feeble, wlstful policy, policy Of regrets and

A w ar Map.

We present to each subscriber to the
Journal this week, a large and handsome
map of the region involved in the war be-
tween Russia and Turkey. The scene of
hostilities is so far distant and little known
to Americans that a pretty close study of
the geography of the region is needed to
enable readers to follow Understandings
the progress of the war. The map which
we present comprises two sections, one
representing Turkey in Europe, and the
other Turkey in Asia, each of which is
now the scene of active operations. This
map, kept at hand and referred to as the
war progresses, will help the reader of
the Journal to d much clearer idea of the
situation. This handsome map has been
obtained at considerable expense, and is
presented to subscribers without cost to

Sometimes it's well enough to see our
selves as foreigners see us, and this is the
way the political situation here looks to
the London Pail Mall Gazette: "The dis
appearance of the negro question makes
it certain that the South will in a few
years be broken up into sections upon
questions of tariffs, taxation and the like
and probably the Union will be strength
ened by alliances between Northern ana
Southern States upon all the ordinary
issues of politics."

RUTLAND, VT, May H. About ten o'clock on
Saturday morning the village Of Brandon was

a man was shot on the road leading To sudbury
about n mile and half from the village. The
victim proved to be Frank Brasscr Il Young man
about Is years old, in the employ Of [. NJ Wins
low. he had gone out on hunting expeditions
carrying breech loading rifle belonging to his EN-
ployer. His body discovered by IA passer by
lying i'll IA ditch near the road. The alarm was
soon given and the authorities We're notified and
the body was placed in the care of DIS Wood
ward and Peck for examination. \ bullet hole
was found entering the right side between he
ninth and tenth ribs, and passing out on the left
side, going completely through his body A bullet
was also taken from near the surface in front of
the upper part Of the left lung. About o'clock
on Saturday night John Pendergrass IL track
walker on the Rutland Railroad, while going north
from Pittsford on the track met a man with a rifle
who attempted to shoot him A sculle ensued
and the rifle was taken from the unknown man.
and Pendergrass, with the rifle proceeded on lis
way until he met another track walker from the
north, who told him about the murder of vonng
Brasser They both Immediately proceeded to
Brandon, where their surmises proved correct A
force at once started with a hand ear and when
near the scene OF the scuil1e shot was heard and
they soon found the unknown tramp between the
rails dead, he having just shot himself with Colts
revolver, which was found near him, The bullets
in the revolver matched those found in the muir

nothing found on the remains, which were con

He dressed in blue suit, checked shirt felt

been recognized by Eugene Williams the one

Hubbardtown, eight miles from here. He also
came to Williams Thursday night last and stayed

The marriage of Miss Lizzie Porter
Admiral Porter's eldest daughter. and
Lieut.. l.. c. Logan, in Washington ON
Wednesday, created a ilutter in the fash
ionable circle at the Capital. The Church
OF the Epiphany, where the ceremony was
performed, was filled with the tairest and
best OF Washington society. and was hand
somcly decorated with flowers. There WAS
q large number OF officers Of the army
and navy present, many of them in full
uniform, which gave Il most brilliant eff
feet to the scene. The groom, with his
best man, Lieut.. Colby, entered the chan
eel from the vestry and the ten ushers,
walking up the aisle two by two, met him
at the chanccl and awaited the arrival Of
the fair procession moving up from the
door. This was Il beautiful siyht-ten
charming girls, in the loveliest OF dresses
made Of tulle and blonde lace dlapcd
with sprays Of lilacs. They We're followed
10y the bride, leaning on the arm of her
father, who was in full uniform. At the
chancei the groups disposed themselves
on either side, and the bride and groom
knelt before the altar. The bride was
superbly dressed in white satin, covered
with the richest of Oriental embroidery.
The only jeweIry she wore We're solitaire
pearl earrings Her bouquet was OF lilies
OF the valley and orange blossoms. Miss
Porter was one of the bridesmaids of Miss
Nellie Grant at her marriage three Years
ago, and of that lovely band she is the
third or fourth who has since made the
central figure on a like brilliant OCCASION
This marriage has created us much of Il
sensation in Washington circles as the
Grant Sartoris and Sherman Fitch mar
rlages which preceded it, and it is worthy
OF remark that within three years the
daughter of the President, the daughter
of the General of the Army and the
daughter Of the Admiral of the Navy, all
associated together from their childhood
in the society of the Capital, have been
