HUNGARY opposes the annexation of
Bosnia aud Herzegovina to the Austrian
Empire tor the same reason that the pro-
slavery party opposed The admission of a
free state. The Hungarian section of the
empire does not wish the Sclay popula-
ton increased, whereas Austria proper
favors the annexation of Il territory that
would increase tile power of the Sclavs
as compared with that OF the Magyars or
Hungarlans. Count Andrassy is Hun
garian, and hence his recent assurances
that the government will take no steps
looking to permanent occupation Of the
Turkish provinces.

A LONDON telegram to the Chicago
Times says the situation grows more
threatening. A conservative member Of
Parliament says he hopes war will not
come, but has grave doubts that the coll
gress will meet. and is certain that in
case it does meet England will soon
Withdraw. Hopes of peace are based
wholly OH the belief that Russia will re-
cede and grant what England will de-
mand. The same gentleman also said
that England is opposed by Germany
and Austria, and that if she fights she
will have no other ally than Turkey.
1t makes n difference what Turkey may
have agreed to in the treaty with Russia,
she will break the treaty the moment she
finds England will fight.

TIE House having passed a bill to
further reduce the revenues of the United
States by allowing the manufacturers OF
whisky to pay their taxes when they
get ready-will proceed to discuss, and
probably pass, an income tax. 1t will
exempt from taxation incomes of $4,000
and under. Incomes of over $4,000 ana
not more than $4,000 are to be taxed two
per cent. Incomes of not more than
$4,000 and not less than $4,000 are 10 be
taxed three per cent. and all incomes
over $4,000 are to be taxed four per
cent. In all cases where an income tax
is collected the amount of rent and other
taxes paid is TO be deducted from the in
come. Everything which favors whisky,
and taxes prudence and fruga,ity, is sure
to be popular in The present Congress.

A WASHINGTON telegram announces
that the Treasury department had made
some very large purchases OF silver bull
lion during last week, 1T price very
much lower than the bonanza ring offered.
Almost simultaneously comes dispatch
from London announcing the departure
thence of $4,000 worth of silver for
America, Has these two things any
connection? Is it possible that Mr..
Sherman is getting his silver from the
bloated gold bugs of England: This is
supplying a market for our home silver
product with vengeance, There is
nothing in The law~to prevent the treas
ury from getting all its bullion abroad,
where, from the present at least, it can
be got much cheaper than in America,
and in comparatively unlimited quanti-
ties. and thus utterly breaking: the do

ENGLAND evidently believes it prudent
III time OF peace TO prepare for war. The
money voted by Parliament is being put
to good use in the navy-yards, and the
busters of warlike preparations contin-
ues. Although nothing of a public ma
ture to awaken fears has TRANSFERRED for
several days, British and Austrian wrath
at Russia is continually coddled, to keep
it warm. A Russian newspaper laughs
at The possibility of any secret un1er-
standing between the Gar and Sultan,
but the aggrieved powers don't propose
to be taken in by any unreliable run0rs.
TIE Cincinnati Gazette has returns
from sixty different points in Ohio: Inli-
ana, and Kentucky in regard to the crops
especially the wheat crop. Without ex-
ception there is premise of larger crop
this year than last. which was the largest
ever raised in the country. Other crops
also promise well. The pest and insects
are ali that is feared now. The prospects
are that the country will never be so rich
rs it is this year, and its prosperity ought
to be assured. From present appearan-
ces only that condensation OF human fol-
ly known as the Congress at Washington
can prevent it.

The Assassination of LincOln-Fate OF
John wilkes Booths Statement.

LOUISVILLE, June 21-Mr John T. Ford, In
his statement Of the assassination of Presi-
dent Lincoln, does not tell the whole story.
Inc package containing the statement of John
Wilkes Booth was delivered to John F. Coyle
then editor of the National IateEtigencer, but
IL was never opened, but was destroyed in the
presence OF very distinguished company.
An eye witness relates that on the night Cf the
assassination OF Mr.. Lincoln a private dinner
party was in progress in back room at
Wormley's restaurant in Washington, at
which were present Gen. Baird, Robert John
son, Hon. Samuel Randall, John Morrissey,
John F. Coyle and one other gentleman
During the progress of the dinner waiter,
who had been out on the street, returned and
stated that the President had been shot at
Ford's Theatre The news created great con-
sternation in the party, who at first thought
the waiter was drunk or crazy. Later on,
when they were assured that it was fact,
and that John Wilkes Booth was accused of
the crime, John F, Coyle, with blanched fea-
tures and trembling lips, said, "My God, gen.
tlemen, this very day I met John Wilkes
Booth in the market space. He was on bay
mare, and rode up to me and handed me
sealed envelope, saying as he did SO. IF You

THE PRESIDENTIAL TITLE.
Cen. Butler Thinks That 1t Can he Ques.
toned.
TChicapo Tribune

WASHINGTON, June 18.-Gen. Butler, as an
Individual member Of the judiciary Commit.
tee, to-day submitted at great length to the
House OF Representatives his reasons fol-
dissenting from the resolution and report OF
the majority In regard to the inviolability of
the Presidents title. He thinks it remarka-
bic that In the face of the sixth section of the
act establishing the Electoral Commission,
the committee should have come to the CON
clusion that the proceedings of committee
OF OF Congress subsequent thereto constitute
an 1mmovable tinality, when the
law itself declares the contrary,
and the contrary was emphatically as
sured by the House Of Representatives. In
stead OF constituting finality these proceed
ings were on their face and in express terms
merely temporary expediency or device to
avoid the contingency OF lapsed election for
which the constitution had made no provis-
ion. Congress, he says, by express words Of
the law, declared that It's object and effect
were provisional only. The President entered
upon his Office with the express notice that his
tenure was questionable in character, Of
doubtful validity, not made absolute by the
interpO5ition Of an extra constitutional COM
mission, but to be examined and adiudicated
upon by the courts.
He agrees with the committee that Congress
has no power, under the constitution, to con-
fer upon the Supreme Court Of the United
States the original jurisdiction sought for it
in the Blair-Kimmel, bill, but he says: "The
question at issue is whether the actual Presi-
dent Of the United States has just and legal
title to the Office he holds. A condensation
upon that question, If it were possible to be
had before a court, would make case
which may well enough be defined TO be a con-
troversy between contending parties under
the forms Of law before court"
