AUSTRIA.
The Policy of The Government as Stated i'm
the Hungarian Diet.

PEsTH, June 27.-Minister Tisga, speaking
IN the Hungarian Diet yesterday, said if the
government had yielded to warlike counsels
year ago, at the most the couLtry would have
insured the protection of its interests which
have been attained already without sacrifice.
Their policy has been from the beginning to
preserve peace, and if this were not possible to
looalIze the war, to maintain cordial relations
with other powers and preserve freedom of ac-
ton so as to prevent any territory transforma-
tons which might be contrary to the interests
of the monarcny. The government had FRANK
ly communicated to European Cabinet its views
in this respect There was no danger of their
suspecting Austria of ambitious designs. Aus
tro-Hungary had no alliance with this view
anywhere, and no obligation with regard to
what she might think best to do for the protec-
ton OF her interests. Relative to military pre-
parations he said: In the face of certain con-
tngencies such had indeed been talked over,
but no actual resolution come to. He could as
sure the house that among those with whom
the decision lay there was no one who deemed
it the object or aim of foreign powers to make
territorial changes on the frontiers of the mon
archy, Cloud and long cheerirg); that no one
dreamed of framing projects In the interest of
such policy. He could give no assurances
that circumstances might not SO turn that the
army would have to cross the frontier in one or
the other directions, both because the monarchy
would not allow itself to be hampered in its

men. Davis losing most by it. At this point
fauikner was slightly in advance, and main-
tained his lead to the end of the first mile when
Davis put on fine squirt and passed him. Da-
Wis turned the mile and half stake about two
lengths in advance. In the next half mile

THE INDIANS.
The Cause of the Idaho Revolt,

SAN FRANCISCO, June 27.-A despatch from
Boise city gives the following information in
regard to the Indian troubles, from Mr. Mes
pile, q chaplain of the army:
1t seems that in 1876 the Umatillas, Cayeses
and Walla Wallas met Mr. Mesplie and ex-
pressed desire to cede the Umatlllas reserva-
ton to the government and remove to Walla
Walla valley. Representations to this effect
were made at Washington, but no notice was
taken of them. Some two months ago, Wam-
poo, one of the chiefs present at the council,
and the principal chief of the Umatillas, passed
through Boise city. The chief told Mr.. Mes
pile at this time that the Umatillas were dis
satisfied and had decided to leave, as the si.
lence and neglect of the government left them
nothing to hope for from that quarter, and
thatlthey would join Chief Joseph in the Walla
Walla valley, who had already resolved to 90
to war. They added that if the government
had attended to the matter in time. everything
might have been amicaby arranged, but it was
now too late, the Indians would certainly 20 to
war.
In speaking of General Howard, Wampoo
said the Indians laughed at the General and
his fine speeches, saying they would never per.
suade them to give up Walla Walla valley,
which they were resolved to keep at every haz-
ard.
Mr.. Mesplie says the chiefs and principal
men who inaugurated this warfare, are rash,
but being influential, they will be able to draw
to their support all disaffected Indians belong
tute the majority in every case. He is of the
opinion that the war will be general and pro.
loDged, as the Indians have been long deliber-
ating and preparing for it, and have staked
everything upon the issue.
Renegade Indians Joining the Hostile
Bands.
Dispatches from Lewiston, Idaho, 26th inst,
say that renegade Indians are joining the hos
tiles and runners have been sent to Palause,
Spokane and Columbia rivers, and the Umitilla
tribes, whom they claimed would JOIN them,
and they would then clear the whole country
from Boise City to Lewiston. The hostles
have crossed Salmon river at Horse Shoe bend
with all their plunder, and will make for Pay
ette and Wesser valleys with all their warriors
They number 800.
Gen. HOward's Forces.
Dispatches from Gen. Howard are to the
effect that Col. Perry met him at Cottonwood
and his force is to move tomorrow morning to
the old battle grounds. The Indians are in
force at Borse Shoe bend on the Salmon river
between White Bird and State creeks. The
following named forces are now in the field;
Regulars-Perry go men; Whipple 100; Mil
ler 100.
Voluntesrs-Chapman 25; Page %; Hunter
25: Elliott 25; Williams Is.
The whole force have gone to Salmon river
except Elliotts, which have gone up Snake
river to lead off the Umatlas who may try to
cross to join Josephs band.
