ex element is occasioned by the cowhid-
ing of Alexander X. Mcclure, editor OF
the Times, by Nathaniel Mckay, who, it

The affair occurred on the south side of

blow with the fist, which broke the skin

stantaneous large swelling.
Mckay was arrested as was also man
named Curtis, who, it is alleged, was in
his company, who also struck Mcclure,
and were taken to Central station, whe,e
a hearing will take place as soon as couu-

MORE OF PHGNIxvILLE's RICH PAUPEI
SENSATION. From Louis G. Prindle
Esq, city editor of the Daily Stdndart
o. BRIDGEPORT, Connecticut, we learn the
following facts in reference to Sarah L
l., Walker:
"Che woman, Sarah E. L. Walker lived
at Long Hill, 1rumbull County, s miles
north of this city. She was born and
raised there, her father dying a good
many years ago. Her mother lived unii
within few years, and with her daugh-
ter Sarah remained on the old homestead
never going anywhere, never receiving
company and living like hermits. A
year or two this same daughter went
away on an expedition selling stencil
plates, and after long absence her home
was broken open to see if she might not
be inside dead, az nobody knew where
she had gons. She comes of a very res
spectacle family in Trumbull. and has a
great many relatives living, all of whom
are comfortably offfor this world goods
She has always been considered eccen.
tric and odd, but ] believe nobody ever
considered her insare or particularly
miserly. This is about all L can give yon
on the subject.

THE EASTERN WAR QUESTION

WHAT THE FOREIGN MINISTERS THINK
ABOUT THE SUBJECT.
BY Telegraph to the GAZETTE.
WASHINGTON, d. c., April 16.
The National Republican this morning
prints an interview with several Foreign
Ministers on the subject of the impend-
ing war in Europe.
The German Minister bad no official
information in regard to the subject, but
expected instructions next week. He did
not believe that Bismarck had notified
Turkey to reject the recent demands
of Russia, and he also thought
that Germany would not be much atfec :
ed by the declaration of war between
Russia and Turkey. Germany, he said,
wants peace, and can stand less war than
any other country in Europe, because
when war comes she calls upon every
man TO be ready to march, and that un-
settles the State very much.
He also thought that sensational tele-
grams about the difficulty were sent here
in order to cater 10 the desire of this
country for war in Europe.
The Spanish Minister thought war was
possible, but if hostilit es were declared
Spain would keep out of the trouble and
would not be affected, commercially or
otherwise. He thought that bostilities, if
commenced, would be confined 10 Tur-
key and Russia.
The Austrian Minister could not
see how Austria would be directly
interested in the matter, the fServian
trouble having been ended, though if
the trouble should be renewed it is
difficult to tell what would be the
result. He did not think the commerce
of Russia would be seriously crippled
by Russia-Turco war.
The daily gazette., 1877-04-17
THE wAR-wHo is TO FIGHT?

Turkeys response to the protocol is in
substance this:-''ln 1856 the nations of
Europe agreed on certain principles with
regard to me; now in 1877 they agrse on
certain other priucip pies. also with regard
to me. In my opinion their agreement
of 1856 was far more favorable to me than
the later one; therefore 1 respect, honor
and applaud the first and scorn the last.
believe and declare that the first was
just, upright, virtuous and valid, and the
last is without force and void" But it
was not regardedas of great consequence
what Turkey would say unless she. said
yes. Her acceptance was the only way to
peace, her objectio on insured war without
regard to the form of the rejection, aud
thecefore, the world Will pfss without
notice the slightly irrational process of a
nation pretending to choose what set of
principles other nations shall be guided
by, even in their conduct toward her.
1t is within the bounds of posi- bil lty,
before the summer is over, and the drift
of opinion is that way; but we should not
be surprised to see the war fought to
legitimate end and not a shot fired by
other troops than the Sultan's or Czar's,
save only the Czar's Persian allies in
Asia. 1t "a hdeclat ed to be "the inflexible
resolve OF France to remain neutral"
This may well be believe. 1t could
scarcely be otherwise. Without F.ance
beside her what sort of figure would
England have made in the Crimean war?
and will she 60 to the East alone now,
with a tremendous opposition at home?
England is not foolish enough TO nlunoe
into great war withouts ONE faint hope
tor success, and where is that hope in
this ease without allies? Can she deal
with Austria? In the conference of the
three Emperors at Berlin, out of which
the Berlin note grew, Austria was made
aware of the necessity of cooperating
with her northern neighbors. and her
relations to Prussia constitute material
guarantee that she will not forget the
necessity. In the partitioning of Euro
pean Turkey Austria will be treated with
a consideration that will satisfy her, and
it is only through any doubt on that
pc mt that England could approach her.

A French authority recommends the
use OF sawdust instead of hair in mortar
to prevent its peeliug off. His own house,
exposed to prolonged storms on the sea
| coast, had patches of mortar to be renew
ed every spring, and after trying without
eject number of substitutes, he found
sawdust perfectly satisfactory. 1t was
fist thoroughly dried and sifted through
an ordinary grain sieve to remove the
larger particles. The mortar was made
by mixing one part cement, two lime,
two sawdust, and five sharp sand, the
sawdust being first well mixed dry with
the cement and sand.

TODAY.
NEW ORLEANS, April 10.
Much better feeling is already mani
fest between the rival parties, and the
disposition 70 consolidateis very general.
Immediately after the new consollda-
ton the election for United States Sena-
tor will be gone into and very spirited
contest may be expected.
LATER-ADoPTED BY THE HOUSE,
The House caucus adjourned at eleven
o'clock tonight after adopting the adjust
ment resolutions unanimously, and thus
the last obstacle 10 setting the Louisiana
difficulty is removed. The commissioners
are very much elated tonight at the full
success of their labors.
THE WITHDRAWAL OF THE TROOPS.
There is no doubt that the troops will
be withdrawn from New Orleans, as inti-
mate friends of the President say that it
is not 10 be expected that he will pursue
in Louisiana a course different from that
in the case of South Carolina, but it is
an open question when it will be best to
act; therefore, no time is fixed for the issu-
ance of an order for the withdraw of the
troops. 1t is the desire Of the President
that the commission shall have the fullest
opportunity foe the completion of their
work and therefore, he has made no sug-
gestions as to the period of their return.
