No change for the better took place
in the European situation, during last
week, and the present week opens with
a not improbable rumor that the British
Indian contingent of troops will be land
ed in Egypt, while nOminally en- route
to the Mediterranean. This rumor, if
true, develops policy of which England
has all along had the credit, and it will
at once nullify the effect of the announce
ment just made by the Porte that in the
event of war between Russia and Eng
land, Turkey will be neutral. This dec
laration, however, on the part of the
Porte is pitiable for, with her capital
under the guns of Russian siege batter
les, on the one hand, and of British
iron clads on the other, neutrality would
be a difficult matter. Chakir Pasha and
Prince LabanOff have respectively been
appointed ministers at st. Petersburg
and Constantinople which is an addi-
tional phenomenon of the situation, see
ing that the late belligerents are still in
negotiation as to the surrender of for.

Cotton is we'll known in the State, and
has had large legislative and business
experience He would do honor to the
position.
If the State shall see fit to turn cold
shoulder to our just claims in this coun-
ty, there are other gentlemen on this
side of the mountain that we could
cheerfully support for the Office mention
ed. Among the most meritorious are c.
S. Page of LamOille county, G. E. Ben
ton of Essex, Col. Farnham of Orange,
and o. E. Butterfeld of Windham. All
of these gentlemen are eligible to the
position, on account of ability, natural
fitness and legislative experience.

AS a matter of course the prospect of
hostilities between England and Russia
has given an impetus to the Fenian
craze, and half forgotten "Head centers"
and Generals" of that patriotic clan
are once more arranging for an invasion
of Canada. The proceeding would, we
suppose, be very irregular, but we wish
that our own Government and that of
England could arrive at a secret under.
standing, and let these irrepressible
Irishmen organize all the force they can
muster and invade the British dominions
to their hearts content The result
might be a very salutary lesson to them
and we could we'll afford to pay the
board of survivors in Canadian jails,
since their capture and punishment
would rid US of some of our most trucu-
lent statesmen" We are sorry to see,
by the way. that some of the leaders who
were captured and imprisoned in the for
mer raid have been pardoned by the
Queen and released. Of course they are
at their old tricks again, and will nc
doubt be among the first to cross the
border should raid be undertaken.

Wyoming Governorship.

Washington, March 2s.-The nomi.
nation of Mr.. Hoyt for Governor OF
Wyoming still hangs fire in the com
mittee on Territories, and judging from
intimations of members of the commit
tee, will receive an unfavorable report.
Senators Chaffee, Saunders, Garland
and Grover are not favorable to con-

the removal of Gov. Thayer insuffi-

against Gov. Thayer for signing the

stated to Gov. Thayer last Saturday
that there were no other grounds for
his removal than the one above men
toned. The Wisconsin Senators seem
to have had no voice in Mr.. Hoyt's
Gov. Thayer is still in

NEW YORK.
Savings Bank Scramble.


New York, March 2S.-Early this
morning crowd began assembling in
front of the Six Penny Savings Bank,
and by noon it had swelled to about
1,000.' Only the stockholders and Off
GERS were admitted. \ number of
persons keeping stores on Third and
Fourth avenues and Broadway in the
immediate neighbood had discount and
deposit business with the bank, and
drew out their money when needed
on checks, and without presenting
their books. The secretary of neigh
boring Savings Bank said it was known
for some time past that the Six Penny
Bank did that sort of business, know
ing that IT was contrary to the spirit of
the law regulating saving institutions.
His impression was that they would
pay about so cents on the dollar. Much
indignation was expressed by the crowd
at the rumor that the bank continued
payment yesterday to favored deposit
tors for nearly three hours after the in
junction to close had been served. The
officers will be held responsible by de-
positors if the facts as reported are
true.

The Pope's Nominations.

Rome, March 2S.--A consistory was

SIANA.
A Deeply Laid Plot.
true.

New Orleans, March 2S.-The ultra
Democrats here, including Judge Whit
taker, have formed conspiracy, which
it is generally supposed is secret mat
ter, to defeat justice and keep Ander-
son in prison. When the Supreme
court overrules Whittaker's decision
again, as it will, and orders Anderson's 8
release, Whitaker will refuse to write
the order for release. The Supreme
court will then direct the sheriff to re-
lease him; but the sheriff having left
the town purposely to avoid the man
date, Gov. Nichols will be called on TO
release Anderson, but the militia,
which is under orders of a rampant,
irreconcilable Democrat, will refuse, and
Nichols will have to yield or take the
ultra step of calling for United States
troops, which it is believed he will not
dare do. The scheme is well formed,
and has been kept quite for several
days, but it has just leaked out.

/ ne OUTLOOK.
st. Petersburg, March 2S.-A cores
pondent says the British cabinet, in
demanding formal assurance from
Russia, which none of the other powers
support, must have one of two aims,
either to inflict formal humiliation
upon Russia or to get out of the neces-
sity of attending the. congress. In
the former case Russia cannot make
any concession; in the latter case the
congress will not lie held, and Russia
will endeavor to come to an arrange
ment with Germany and Austria.
Thus England condemns herself to
isolation and makes triple alliance a
political necessity, and perhaps rem
ders inevitable that radical solution of
the Eastern question, which she wishes
to prevent.
London, March 2S.-A dispatch from
st. Petersburg says there is an excited
party there who oppose any concessions
to Austria which might impair the
treaty of San Stefano and considers it
sufficiently humiliating for Russia al
ready.
A Vienna correspondent telegraphs:
So long as the slightest chance remains
of real congress of all signatory pow
ers, thus securing the possibility of
European settlement, it will be tena-
ciously clung to. All efforts will be
concentrated on increasing these
chance, and on removing the obstacles
in the way of the congress. The pro-
Russian party is urging the govern
ment to accept Boznia, Herzegovina
and territory on the Aegean Sea.
Another correspondent says A sud-
den and unaccountable change in the
governments attitude is reported. 1t
is said that Count Andrassy has only
been feigning concurrence with the
court party, and he is now preparing to
oppose Russia openly with the entire
Hungarian party at his back.

Looks Very Much Like War.

London, March 2S.-In the House of
Commons the Secretary of War, Gath
erne Hardy said it was necessary to call
out the first class of the army reserve,
numbering $4,000, and the militia re-
serve, which was between 25,0OO and
10000. The Queens message to that
effect would be presented, probably, on
Monday. This would be followed by
proclamation calling out such of the
reserve forces as might be required.
Hardy pointed out that this is not the
embodiment of the militia which would
not take place until it was necessary
to send regulars abroad.
The Press Association says Lord Ly-
ons is mentioned as the possible sue
cessor of Lord Derby, but nothing def
mite is yet known
1t is understood that the Royal mes
sage will not enter into detailed state
ment of the causes for calling out the
reserve.

DERBY SPEAKS.
But Refuses to Explain the Cause of His
Resignation.

Blu, Refuses TO Explain the Cause of His
Resignation.
London, March 27.-This afternoon
many members of the lower House
were present. Lord Derby entered
soon after five and took a seat below
the gangway, instead of on the treasury
bench. He arose almost Immediately
and announced his resignation as
secretary of foreign affairs, which he
said had been accepted by the Queen,
and that he only continued to hold the
office until the appointment of his sue
cessessor. He regretted that under
the circumstances it would not be JUS
titiable for him to follow the customary
course of explaining in detail the diffeI-
ence which led him to resign. The
Cabinet had arrived ut certain conclu-
sions of grave and important charac-
ter, in which he was not able to concur.
To prevent needless alarm he would
say he did not consider these measures
as necessarily tending to bring about
war. His resignation was not on ac-
count of the demand for the submis-
sion of the whole treaty to the Con-
gress.
Lord Beaconsfield explained that
Lord Derby resigned on account of the
calling out Of the reserves. He deeply
deplored that he would not have the
support of Lord Derby when he sub
mitted the measures on which the cab.
met had resolved to parliament. He
had felt of late that the political ties
between Lord Derby and himself must
soon terminate, but he had believed
that it would be in a very different and
more natural manner, namely: that he.
Lord Beaconsfeld, would disappear
from the scene while Lord Derby would
remain to take the leading part in rub
lie affairs. He was sustained Mt the
present moment by confidence in the
policy of the government recommended
to her majesty, would lend to the main
taipance of her empire, the freedom of
Europe, and the greatness and security
of the country.
