AUSTRIA.
Vienna, March 25.-The fulltexl Of the
treaty of Sau 6tefano, has renewed strong
anti-Russian feeling here. There is no
difference of opinion about the real mean
ing ofihe treaty. II Is not Russian pre-.
p,nderance, but Russian rule iu European
Turkey. aud 1t is just because such alter
a,ioo, 10 would remoxs<ats feature, would
entirely destroy the treaty, that less. con.
fllence is felt 10 the efficacy Of the congress
since Its publication. While Count An-
drassv will demand the revision Of the en-
tire treaty, he will decline to DO 60 IL COM
btnstion With England, because their in-
,erest is not idenufed.
London, March 25.-In London and the
provinces yesterday the weather was fine
a I'd bright until about $3.50 o'clock, when
almost general change ensued. Short and
violent gusts of wind, accompanied by snow
and dust storms of very unusual character
brief as sudden, followed rapidly from near
ly the opposite points Of the compass. At
four o'clock in the afternoon when of Den
nose, and proceeding under full sail, squall
struck the Eurydice and she capsized and
sank Immediately. The schooner Emma,
passing the Eurydice at the time, rescued
five persons, including 1t. Francis II. Tabor,
a., I, ~
Three Of these died soon. The survivors of
the disaster are Benjamin Cuddiford, able
seaman, and Sydney Fletcher, tirst-class boy.
Boats went out last nigh. to search for the
bodies, but none were found. Several gun
boats are to-day cruising in the neighbor-
hood. An effort will be made to raise the
vessel. There is NO doubt that the Fury
dice was carrying too much sail. She had
her lower aud upper s,udding sails. 1t is
feared, that with the men embarked at Ber-
muda, and probably from Admiral Key"
squadron, North American and West Indies,
the Eurydice hnd nearly 400 persons on
board.
The following 10 Cuddiford's statement
The ship capsized in squall and snow
storm, about four o'clock in the afternoon
when five miles from Dennose. There were
over three hundred persons on board, all Of
whom, except myself and Fletcher, were, l
believe lost. was one Of the lat on the
ship. Capt. Hare was with me when she
went down after capsizing, and she carried
with her large number Of men clinging to
her, or were drawn down in the vortex. A
man near me said that vessel was close by
when the squall came on, and therefore We
will be sure to be picked up. 1 was more
than an hour in the water, being first-rate
swimmer, and very many Of my comrades
cried TO me for help. tried to assist two
or three, but At Last there was four clineing
to me, and l was obliged to kick them of.
Our ship left Bermuda three weeks ago. We
passed the Lizard county of Cornwall and
the most southern part Of Great Britain yea
terday, and expected to anchor at spithead
about Eve o'clock in the afternoon.
