ENGLAND AND AUSTRIA.

London dispatch of July Sls', says
"Much interest was manifested to-day
in the proceedings ofthe ministerial conn
Gil at Vienna.
As | surmised, the immediate future
action of England may depend in a great
measure upon whether Austria shall de
part from the policy of neutrality which
she has hitherto pursued Commnne ca
tons have recently been passing between
the governments OF England and Austria
and it is even asserted that a conyentlo I
has been entered into by them regarding
the mutual defence of Constantinopie.
However that may be, England has
already shown indications other growing
hostility to Russia. The dispatch OF
troops from Portsmouth will continue
as fast as ships can be prepared. Rumol
assigns ten thousand men as the present
limit of the force, but that applies only
to troops sent direct from England. In
dia and Gibraltar will be called upon for
their quota"

Quick Work.

An effort was made at Carrolton, Mo-,
last week to see how quick wheat could
be cut, thrashed, ground, made into
bread, baked and eaten. From the time
it was standing in the field till If was on
the table in biscuit was only eleven min
utcs, as follows:
Commenced cutting with the reaper
at 3:0l p. M: finished cutting 3; OF; be-
gan threshing at 3:024; finished one bush
ell at :034. Commenced grinding At
8 :0ii !; finished at 3 :063. Mrs. Lawton
began making bread at 3 :08; finished al
3 :0S5. Griddle cake bake at 3 ;09t and
biscuit baked and eaten at 3 :l2-the
whole accomplished in IL minutes. The
reaper, thrasher and the mill were though
" cleaned out before the trial commenc.
ed and not a particle Of flour was used
that did not come from the wheat cut in
the above trial. The witnesses kept
separate time, and in the result all time
agreed.

The Oregon Senatorship- False Witness
Indicted for Perjury.

Ever since the seating of the Fraud
ulcnt President, an attempt has been
made to blacken the fair name OF Gov
Grover, of Oregon. The investigation
us tituted by Morton and others of the
U. S. Senate, has failed in every particu
lar to attach to the Governor, or his
friends, anything disreputable in the
means used for his election by the Leg
slature of Oregon, to the Senate of the
United States. A Portland, Oregon, dis
patch of the LIST. says;
"For several days past the United
States grand-jury has had under invest
CATION the case of W. H. n. Stiles, who
testified so positively and pointedly
against Senator Grover before the con
gressional committee. Stiles testimony
in relation to having overheard a CONVEX
sation between Grover, Watkins and Gil
| fry, during which Gilfry stated to Gro
yer that they secured good man al
Umatilla, but that it had cost 81 900, anc
other very damaging statements in con
nection herewith, was most emphatica
! ly eontradicted by these persons when
on the stand before the investigation
committee. Several witnesses have been
examined before the grand jury, and af
ter careful investigation of the case true
bill was returned today against Stiles,
charging him with perjury, with bonds
fixed at S2,500 In default he was com.
mitted. The grand; jury has found two
indictments against other witnesses in the
Grover investigation business, charging
them perjury. The names of the per.
sons are not known, as no arrests have
been made yet. Stiles case will be call
ed for trial in few days in the U. S
district court. Senators Grover, Wat
kins and Gilfry are the principal witness
es for the prosecution. These indict
menis have produced a stir in politica
circles here"

The European War.

Summary of news to the lst Of August,
by the st. Louis Republican;
An official telegram from the Turkish
commander at Plcvna reports 4 fight OF
ten to fifteen hours on the 30th, the Rus
slams retiring from the assault at ten
O'Clock at night. The Russian force, &C
eording to prisoners taken, numbered
10000 infantry and three regiments of
cavalry. Confirmation is almost daily
received of the preparation of the most
shocking barbarities by the Bulgarans
and Russians upon Mussulmans. The
sultan through the British minister at
Constantinople has appealed to the queen
to use her influence with the car to pre-
vent the war from becoming war ofex-
termination Two war vessels are to
proceed to the Danube to protect British
interests and to assert England's treaty
right to maintain two gunboats in that
stream. An engagement is reported in
progress near Yeni Saghra. 1t is claim
ed that Mehcmet Ais vanguard is with
in twenty miles of Tirnova. A Brus-
sells telegram says ii is learned from Vi
emma that the cabinet council of Austria
has virtually ordered the mobilization
of the army-wh;ch is very significant
move. An Erzeroum special reports
that the Russians arc again advancing on
that point from Arabian. A Turkish
steamer cruising in the Danube near o.
tcnitza was sunk by Russian batteries.
London date Of the I'd, says:
A telegram from Bucharest says l00,-
600 troops were engaged on each side a,
the battle of Plevna, which resulted 80
disastrously to the Russians. The vic,
tory of the Turks is confirmed by adj
vices from Mr.. Layard, British minister
at Constantinople. Another important
Turkish success is also reported at Elk
Saghra on the southern slope of the Balll
ans. The place was retaken from the
Russians, according to Turkish oilicia
dispatches, who lost several guns. A
London telegram rport the capture O.
two Turkish monitors at Nikopolis. The
Grand Duke Alexis, it is announced viii
command the Russian fotlla in the Dan
ube. Intelligence from Tirnova is to tn
effect that the Russians are preparing t.
retrieve their recent disasters. TIL
grand duke has gone to Plevna. Tn
Russian position, however, is considare'
serious. A telegram to the Londol
Times, received after midnight, bring
rumors that the Russians have occupies
Plevna.

Just as il Should Be.

The St. Louis Republican ofthc 30 ult
says:
The Georgia convention has adopted
the tax-paying qualification for voters
1t requires all persons on presenting
themselves to vote to swear that they
have paid all taxes which, since the adop-
ton of the new constitution, are rcquir-
ed of them. Of course this debars all
who fail or refuse to pay apoittaX, ana
it will, therefore, have the effect ofprac-
tcally DISTINGUISHING a considerable bo-
DIV of colored voters, for the colored vo-
ter in the South is generally averse to
paying all taxes. 1t was argued in OPP
position to the measure that it was an in
fringement on the inalienable rights OF
freemen but this was answered by the
remark that freemcn have certain inalen-
able duties to perform, among which was
tax -paying, for the support Of the state.

who asked him if he was not the cham

The interrogation observed. II knew you

the highest compliment We can pay a

position on the public hogging question
Criminals have no right to dictate to the
State what punishment it shall innict for
crimes against its peace and good order.
Society owes protection to the innocent,
and to this end the guilty must be
punished, and that punishment should be
