The Case of BradEaugh.
LONDON, June 17th.--It is understood that
the report of Bradlaugh's Committee will be
considered on Monday. TIE Government
viii support the decision of the committee.
The report Of the committee states that there
is no precedent whatever for the refusal of
the House to allow member to take the
Parliamentary oath. The committee hold
that mere compliance of Bradlaugh with
the form used, when the oath is taken, would
not be taking the oath, and that the House
can and ought to prevent him from going
through such form. Therefore, the COM
mittee advise that he be allowed to affirm.

LONDON, June 17th-In the House of
Commons today, the Speaker having ex-
plunged from the notice paper = portion of
ODonnelrs further question concerning
Challomel Lacour, O'Donnell endeavored to
put his question in its original form. He
said he desired to bring the Speakers action
before the House. The Speaker threatened
other steps if he persisted. O'Donnel, after
an excited scene, declined to put his ques-
ton, and quilted the House.
The Amnesty Question.
PARIS, June 17th.-The Left Center has
unanimously pronounced against amnesty. A
deputation Of the Republican left had an in
terview with De Freycinet last evening to
urge the Government to take the initiative In
carving forward amnesty. AT the meeting
of Deputies of the Republican Left 65 voted
for the immediate discussion of amnesty, Is
voted against, and Is abstained from voting.
The Porte and the Powers.
VIENNA, June 17th.-The answer of the
Porte to the identical note is better than an
ticipated, as it accepts the decision of the
Powers and places itself on the same basis
eith them. There is, however, a reservation
that mediation should not interfere with the
free decisions of the Porte; but it was never
expected that the Porte would submit before
knowing the decision OF the Powers. The In
ference is that the action of the Powers has
not failed to produce some impression upon
the Sultan as to the seriousness of his po-
sition.
The situation in Turkey.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, June 17th.-It is stated
that the Porte will not openly object to the
decisions of the Conference, but will not en-
force them. The Albanians on the Greek
border are being urged to resist. Large sup
plies of arms and ammunition have been sent
for distribution. The financial difficulties are
increasing. Notwithstanding the scarcity OF
money, constant additions are being made to
the special chest at the War Office, supposed
to be in anticipation of war with Greece. 1t
is believed that Russia is secretly Inspiring
the Sultan with the idea of resistance. There
can be no hope of Turkey accepting the ad
vice of Europe while the influence of Osman
Pasha and Said Pasha, who are simply Rus
sian instruments, prevails.
