Reference was recently made in publish
ed statement to dispatch from Portland,
Oregon, which states that Chaplain Collins
of the United States navy, who was pass
lnger on board the steamer California from
Sitka, brings information of deplorable
state of affairs at Sitka since the withdrawal
of troops from that place. From the ac-
count given by Mr.. Collins there would ap-
pear to be no protection at Sitka either for
life or property, and that unless some pro-
lection is afforded the white settlers they
will either be murdered or compelled to
leave the place. The accounts of the con.
dition Of affairs at Sitka appear to be very
conflicting. Representations of the charac-
ter now made by Mr.. Collins were made
some months since, and in consequence there.
of the treasury department dispatched the
United States revenue-cutter Thomas Cor.
win, Captain White, to Sitka, to ascertain
the true condition of affairs, and, if necess-
ary, to remain there, for the purpose Of
affording protection to the inhabitants.
The report of Captain White was received
at the..treasury department on the Sd instant
Captain White does not consider that the
affairs at Sitka were so critical as to demand
the continued presence ofthe cutter at that
place. A telegram has within few days
been sent to Captain White at Astoria,
Oregon, inquiring when, in his opinion, it
will be necessary for the cutter to return to
sitka. To this he replied that the Indians
have festival at Sitka about the last of
October. and that it might be necessary to
have cutter there at that time.

The Indians then shook hands with the
president and secretary of the interior, ap-
pearing satisfied with the remarks Of the
president.
Tomorrow they will visit the tomb of
Washington, and before leaving here will
be presented with overcoats and other warm
rainment and small amount of money.

to be not only an act of injustice to
the company, but breach of faith
towards tho community, to whose
liberality the organization is in.
debted for the facilities now in it's

pointed to take into consideration

ing somo means for recruiting the
depleted ranks of the company.
The committee consists of Messrs.

THE CONFERENCE NOT YET A SUCCESS.
CoNsrANrINoPLE, Jau. 16,--At the
Conference yesterday a modified propo.
sition by the Powers was discussed, but
met no favor from the Turkish repre-
sentative.
The Powers now propose that the an.
pointment of Governors OF the Provinces
be subjected to their approval only dur
ing the next five years, and that instead
of an International Commission a mixed
body, composed OF Europeans and Turks,
be established.
. After making his communication Lord
Salisbury announced that if the Porte
did not agree to the proposals now
made, he had instructions to quit Con.
stanunople.
Sir Henry Elliott said he also had
been instructed, in that event, to with
draw and leave the British Embassy in
care Of the Charge D'AffAires.
All other plenipotenLiaries, In Success
sion, made similar declarations, some of
them laying stress on the fact that it
was to the Porte's interest to accept the
proposals.
Satvet Pasha replied. he expressed
regret that the decision Of the Powers
should require him to refer the matter
to the Porte before giving final answer,
but he would say he did Tot think it
possible for Turkey to yield upon the
question relative to a Commission OF
Supervision and the appointment of
Governors, those proposals, which affect
the independence OF the Porte, having
already been rejected. The Porte, how
ever, r,would examine tho communication,
and reply definitely thereto at the next
sitting.
The Conference will assemble on
Thursday il the Turkish answer is then
ready.
