DEMOCRACY In MAINE.
PROCEEDINGS OF THE STATE
CONVENTION.
AIonzo GarceIOn Nominated for Gov
ernOr-A Platform OF Sound
Democratic Principles.
The European Congress.

LONDON, June lS.-Berlin correspond
ents send very contradictory accounts o.
| dongs in the Congress. Some assert
that Lord Salisbury proposed the sdmis
sion Of Greece, supporting his proposal
in a speech which occupied the entire
sitting. Others declare that the sdmis-
sion of Greece was not discussed at all
but was postponed TIL Wednesday. Ii
Is said thst,when Count Andrsssy intro.
! duced the question OF the boundaries OF
Bulgaria, he made an earnest speech urg-
ing the division of European Turkey
into districts on the basis of nstionsli-
ties, thus rendering reform possible
without severing their connection with
the Porte.
Fhe Tunes correspondents say that the
repres entatives of England moved for
the admission of Greece, and tie repre-
sentstives of France supported the mo-
ton, but the debate was adjourned till
the next sitting.
The Congress sat less than two hours
yesterday.
Whatever may be the vote OF the ms
iorIty cf States, it is not believed that
Congress will undertake 10 compel by
force the exchange of Besssrsbis for Ds-
brudga, or sanction Russia In coerclng
Roumsaia If the latter, after an eI-
preston of opinion by Congress, contin. g.
ues TO refuse to make an exchange, Eng
land will insist upon rigorous limitation
OF the pTincipslity of Bulgaria to the
territory north of the Balkans.
LONDON, June lS.-A Berlin corre-
spondent says: 1t is not certain that
Russia will even succeed in getting Sofia
included. 1t Is fully understood that
Roumelis shall only have sea border
on the Euxine, and shall retain over
that province her sovereignty, and that
she shall have the nomination with the
consent of the powers OF Christian Gov
ernor of the province; that the Russian
element will neither figure in the sd-
ministrstion nor the government, and
that in al the frontiers Of RoumelIs on
the northeast and west as we'll as on the
sesboard Of the Euxine, Turkey shall be
able to strengthen the boundaries of
the province and protect herself by gar
ri.oning all fortified positions OF her
new borders, This is how she will be
neutraIized by the destruction
OF the Ottoman Empire, which
was the ultimate aim of the San
S.eiano treaty. These are points which
England deems so essential to the safe
guarding of her interests, as not to allow
of her making any concession thereon
whatever, without playing false to her
duties and sacrificing the rights of the
nation.
LONDON, June lS.-A Berlin cores
pondent states that Beaconsfeld has re-
solved to remain until the close of the
Congress.
Bismarck, in Mondays sitting,
sketched the general plan for the ar
rangement of the pending questions, and
opened the debate on Bulgaria. An an
imstcd discussion followed. AS no re.
suit was reached Bismarck proposed an
adjournment to allow the representatives
of the States Immediately concerned to
meet privately. 1t may be assumed that
even more recourse will be had to
private conference between the repre-
seHthlINes LOT tue adSeueuI VI Eue
differences than was at hrst supposed.
The agreement between England and
Russia has disturbed certain other ar
rsngements and the present relations OF
some OF the powers are such that lack
of modtlS Qperand, for smoothing the diff
terences would almost certainly lead to
dangerous consequences. The condition
Al admission of Greece to the congress is
certain,
