Gortschakoff has requested the Roumani
an government to repress the bitter tone OF
the press regarding Bessarabia and the two
years occupation of Bulgaria.
.cur ULTIMATE EFFECT a
of Gortschakof's circular is not reassuring.
1t is pointed out here that the government
cannot accept the invitation to formulate
counter proposals, that the questions must
be settled by the powers jointly. In
Vienna. where only telegraphic summary
has yet been received, the most serious de-
duction is that the hope heretofore held out
from St. Petersburg of renewal of confer
ence negotiations, is not confirmed by. Gorts-
chakoff's circular, which says nothing about
accepting England's condition for going to
the Congress. Without some such conces-
sion on the part of Russia, no step can be
taken towards peaceful settlement.
The suddenness with which the circular
was telegraphed to London, during the de-
bate on the address to the queen, excites re-.
marks. The special edition of the Times
containing it was issued about 8 O'Clock
Tuesday night. Sir VIM. Vernon Harcourt
and Leonard Courtney, liberals, distributed
the papers in the House of Commons. The
text of the circular was published in the
original French. The inference is that the
| circular was specially framed with the view
of influencing public opinion here, and hur
ried into the hands of members of Par
lament in the hope of affecting the vote or
the address.

WASHINGTON. April 1.-THE President does
not seem to be the least disturbed by the ac-
ton of the recent Republican caucuses. Those
nearest him, socially and politically, say there
is no probability that he will, as requested by
the resolution of Senator Sargent in the caucus
last night, rescind the order forbidding the
participation, in political meetings of officers
in the executive branch of the civil service and
these friends do not think it probable that any
such request will be made by the congressional
President on political affairs generally, in view
of the approaching election. They say the
President declines to listen atteatively to a
suggestion, but when he makes up his mind as
to the rightfulness of any measure, he adheres
to it. The Republicans in Congress-. for the
greater part, will endevor to avoid direct is
sue with the President, however
much they disagree with him in
some of his political measures.

by both parties to secure majority in the

con. ested. and although they obtained certif
Gates of election, the old members of the coun

the qualifications of new members, prevented
the council from organizing, and, until to-day
! prevented any legislation.
There is a metropolitan police in East 81

are opposed to Mayor Bowman. To meet thi
condition of things Bowman appointed larg

Surface Boundaries of Quartz Claims.

The only United States law regu-

claims upon the public domain shall
be located, and a Government title
thereto obtained, is that passed by

sequent amendments, (which provides
that when the claimant to a mineral
vein has made the requisite improve
ments upon his claim, he may file in
the local land Office diagram of the
same, 50 extended laterally or other
wise, as to conform to the local laws,
customs and rules of miners, and en-

the vein or lode with its dips. angles

it may enter the land adjoining, which
adjoining land shall be sold, subject
to this condition. In constituting this
act the Commissioner of the General

Grumblers.

Some people are so in the habit of
grnmbling that they are never happy
except when doing it. Nothing is
ever quite right to them unless it is
just enough to enable them to com
plain of it. 1t is better, however, not
to finger every rose with the certainty
that if you search long enough you
will find the thorn. The end of such
a habit is well put in the following
lines:
He finds he has sorrows more deep than
his tears,
lie grumbles to think he has grumbled for
years;
He grumbles to think he has grumbled
away.
His home and his fortune, his life's little
day.
But, alas It's too late; it is no use to say
That his eyes are too dim and his hair is
too gray.
He knows he is wretched as wretched can
be;
There is no one more wretchedly wretchei
than he.

Itch arrived at Geneva in disguise
two days ago. She relates an extra
ordinary story respecting her adven-

burg upon the charge of shooting Ire
|poff, the Prefect of Police. During
the riot which followed her acquittal
she was seized by some secret agents
of the police, who were disguised as
medical students, and who persuaded
her that they were her friends. They
hurried her through an unfrequented
passage way to carriage standing
near, and she was driven with them
to house in the suburbs of ST. Pc
tersburg, where she found herself de-
tanned in sort of honorable confne-
ment. AT length 1t was lntlmated to
her that she was to be transported to
Siberia, but the same informant told
her that for a certain consideration.
which she consented to give, he would
arrange for her escape. She was pro-
vided with the attire of Sister of
Charity, and with papers showing that
she was authorized to visit Paris on
a mission. With these aids she man
aged to cross the Russian frontier, and
to find her way TO Geneva. Her arri-
val here was made known to certain
Russian exiles now here, and caused
some excitement.
