Accounts from both sides describe some
fighting in Asia Minor. It appears that the
Russians made an attack on the defences OF
Ardahan. and they claim to have captured
two outworks with some nine guns. The
Turks, on the other hand, assert that the
attack was repplsed. We are inclined to
believe that the Russian story is correct
as to the capture of the outworks and the
Turkish report so tar as it claims that
the town itself is still held. curious
story comes from Erzeroum regarding an
attempted bombardment of Kars by the
Russians. 1t is stated that the Russian
shells dew over the city owing TO a miscal-
culation Of the range, and that the guns had
to DO withdrawn. This overshooting the
mark reminds one of tho comment of Paul
conbridge at the siege OF Anglers when
Philip OF France and the Archduke Of Aus
tria proposed to lombard the town from
opposite sides.
prudent disciplined From north 10 south
Austria and France shoot In each others mouth
II the Russians are investing Kars they
must have run some danger from their
own guns. But We do not believct tho Turkish
story. Moukhtar Pacha is beginning to teel
the pressure on his TANKS. Already he has
suffered loss by attacks from the converging
Russian columns. On the Danube, accord
ing to our dispatches, the Turks are murder
ing women and children to keep up the
courage Of the army. The shrieks OF the
victims ut Turtukai could be heard across the
river at Oltenitza. Meanwhile the Russian
corps are steadily concentrating for grand
crossing in force. The next dispatches will
probably inform US of great battle in rear
of the Souganlu position in Asia and for
ward movement Of the Russians on the

We hear that Colonel Pelton is still en-
gagged in an attempt to procure a seat for
Mr.. Dudley Field in the next Congress-. He
is reported to be trying to get some demo-
cratic member to resign and give Mr.. Field
chance. Out Of friendship tor Colonel
Pelton we repeat our advice to him, given
some time ago, that he try the republican
side we think he would be more successful
there. Mr.. Field was favorite among the
shrewder kind Of republicans in the last
Congress. His course pleased them, because
they saw that though he pretended to have
gone over to the democrats he was in fact
constantly engaged in the manufacture of a
very good quality of republican thunder.
There is o general impression that the
democrats can get on without Mr.. Field
in the next Congress, but the republicans
may need him, and it is only fair that some
republican Congressman shall resign and
give him chance. There is rumor that if
Mr.. Field should get seat he would bring
forward some measures intended to carry
the Presidential title into court. Of course
that is nonsense; but we suspect it is put
forth in order to induce the republicans to
make room for Mr.. Field. If they could get
from him a guarantee that he would do so
foolish thing as this they should not hesi-
tate moment to make m opening for him.

Once more Governor Hamptons influence
has been felt for good in South Carolina.
The repudiationists, consisting mainly Of
the extreme Bourbon element, were yester-
day handsomely beaten in the lower house
of the Legislature. where Hampton demo-
Gratis and republicans united to appropriate
the sum necessary to pay the January and
July interest due the creditors Of the State.
Our correspondent telegraphs that the vote
has given great satisfaction to the merchants
in Charleston. who were anxious about the
credit of the State. Tho Senate is certain to
pass the House bill, and committee of men
of high character will also be appointed to
investigate and report on the States obliga-
tons Those who ere interested will find
some information in our dispatches on the
subject
gratifying evidence of harmony and
good feeling appears in the unanimous cleo
ton OF Mr.. McIvor, an eminent lawyer, to
BE- Judge Of the Supreme Court. He re-
ccived every ballot, republicans uniting
with democrats and black with white. Such
spectacle Of harmony has not been seen
before in South Carolina since the war. The
Presidents policy bears good fruit

The failure Of the carnival has put those
who originated it on the defensive, and no
one wishes to take the responsibility. Had
it succeeded we should have seen scores of
persons rushing forward to claim the honor.
But naturally there is now a confusion
Of accusation and recrimination. We
have received letters of an extraordi-
nary character charging different persons
with causing the tiasco, and some truth may
be found in the conflicting statements. But
il is unjust to seek out a single scapegoat
for the disgrace. When the carnival was
first proposed we suggested that our citizens
should see that it was in proper hands,
and pointed out that only under
able management could the experiment
be fairly made. These precautions
were not taken, and the carnival proved an
immense failure It is useless now to seek
to throw the whole weight of blame upon
single scapegoat when SO many persons
were concerned in the enterprise. Those
who allowed the speculation to 60 on under
the sanction of their names must take their
proper share of the public cersure and
attribute their misfortunes to their own
want Of prudence and foresight.

anybody to Yell why giving single heads in
stead of plural heads to departments would
deprive the city of the management OF its
own affairs. While local self-govern-
ment is sound principle within
reasonable limits it must not be
pushed to ridiculous extreme. Until
the constitution is amended the city can
not be governed at all, except in accordance
with charter passed by the Legislature ;
and rs the present charter of New York is
confessedly imperfect, and was never more
strongly denounced than by Governor Rob-
inson's democratic predecessor, there is no
good reason why the Legislature should not
undertake to amend it. 1t is unwarrantable
to veto bill passed for that object on the
ground that it is q meddlesome interference
with the locaIg right of self-govern-
ment, because the present charter, all
past charters and every possible charter
must Of necessity prescribe a form Of gov
eminent for the city. Self-government Is
i'm possible in the sense Of entire indepen-
dence Of the Legislature. Neither the
Mayor nor the heads Of departments have
any power which the Legislature has not
conferred upon them, nor can they acquire
power through any other source. The de-
fects of the present charter have been an
. incessant topic of complaint and this bad
charter having been fastened on the
city by the Legislature there is no valid
reason why that body should not amend it.
We believe as strongly as Governor Robin
son that this city has been a victim Of
Albany interference with it's affairs; but we
cannot see that spring election or vesting
the sole power of appointment in the Mayor,
or dispensing with unnecessary officers,
would in the slightest degree impair the
right Of selt-government. Our charter must
necessarily be an act OF the Legislature until
an amendment of the constitution takes this
subject out OF its hands, and even then our
form OF local government will be prescribed
by the State.
We wish the Legislature would remain
long enough in session to pass a new act
containing the really unobjectionable tea
lures Of the Omnibus bill, and put upon the
Governor the responsibility Of vetoing them
be compelled to take ground so clearly un-
tenable that he would injure the prospects
OF his party. The present veto has SO many
good points that the Governor can afford to
stand upon it in spite OF its absurdities.
But if bill were sent to him which left
nothing but these absurdities as the grounds
OF veto the case would be considerably
altered

For the past few days we have been ex-
periencing remarkable temperature for
May. From gradual and natural thermo-
sudden fall Of temperature occurred which
brought back memories Of winter and caused
many to anticipate rather late spring. On
the 10th and nth the thermometer at New
York, where exposed in the afternoon to the
air in free circulation, recorded only So de-
grees. At the same time of day on the 18th
it rose to 81, and on the 18th to 65 degrees
But during these days it was noticed that q
remarkable rise Of temperature was taking
place in the Northwest, where the pressure
was low, as we'll as in the Southwest,
where the heat of the afternoon had in
creased to over eighty degrees. At this
time we received intelligence that vol
canic disturbance had occurred in the Pa
cific Ocean, causing a series of earthquake
waves to break on that coast The enor-
nous liberation of heat resulting from this
disturbance has undoubtedly much to do
with the phenomenal temperature that fol-
lowed. On the 14th the isotherm Of 20
degrees ran northward of the Middle and
New England States and across the lower
Missouri Valley, but northward still,
smaller detached areas of high temperature
were moving eastward. On the after
noon of the 18th the isotherm of
70 curved into Canada and across
the lakes into Dakota, giving North
ern Minnesota higher temperature
than New Orleans. Thus the heat area be-
came more clearly outlined and now COW
cred the United States from the northern
frontier to the Gulf On the 18th the iso-
therm of 70 moved southwark in the North
eastern districts. but still maintained its
position in the Northwest. The heat de-
creased in Nova Scotia, the st. Lawrence
Valley and Northern New England, but in
creased decidedly in the Middle States, the
afternoon record at New York being 70
degrees. In Missouri considerable varia-
ton Of temperature took place, and violent
tornado resulted between Fulton and Alton.
The heat in Wisconsin rose to S5 degrees
when it was only II at Cincinnati. On the
18th still more extraordinary variations oc-
Cured in the West, far northerly points
being extremely warm. while more south
erly places had comparatively cool weather.
The temperature at New York fell to rs and
at Boston to So degrees. But yesterday it
rose again here to the highest yet recorded
namely, SO degrees, and still higherat Phila-
delphn, Pittsburg and Baltimore, being 90
degrees at the last named city. The great
heat area is, however, passing off the CONT
nent the temperature is falling rapidly in
the North and Northwest, and though We
now experience a midsummer heat We shall
after few days feel proportionately chilly
when the cool wave is passing over us. Dur
ing the heated term here the temperature
varied only slightly on the Pacific coast.
