The State lige will continue itvSaqucV provinces. - ; - TK.ot-r,Jah;''6.'The Times' Paris correspondent; Quotes -a- letter written by.one of the most eminent members of the conference to show that the complete chige,in the attitude of the Pprte, by wnich it how proposes terms to Europe,' instead of the vice'versa-y is due to. the fact -of wh ich t th e Turks are fully aware; that the Russian mobilize tion has' completely broken down, and that : none . jof the other European powers are. prepared to exert anything but moral pressures. Th e Peru correspondent of the Times heretofore strongly anti-Turkish and pro-Ru3sian writes under date of Jan. 1st : "I am stid of the opinion that the Turks wilLuUiniately give in, but there is no doubt that the great trump card intended to be p'ayed es the last resort that of the declaration of war. hy. Rus sia has suddenly turned out to be no trnmp at all, for every thing in the at titude of the St Petersburg cabinet and the conduct of Gen, Jgnatieff the Rus sian plenipotentiary here, contributes to1 Confirm the belief that Russia is afraid to g') to war. The Russian am bassador in fact, throws out clear'hints that the affair could ohly be' settled by joint European 'execution, thus revert ing to the proposal made by the Czar two months ago. The Turks have not failed to perceive the advantage occur ring to their cause from this irresolu tion of Russia and Europeand are not unlikely to continue unmanageable and stubborn as long as they can flat ter themselves that the conference will break up without any other result than leaving them masters of the situation. WASHINGTON. No Smoking ia the Treasury Wit- no?ses Before Senatoral Com mittee Unimportant; " Business. v Washington, D. C.j Jan 6.-House. Most of the day was devoted to busi ness. "The District of Columbia, Con sular , and Diplomatic appropriations bill was up in vthe Com mittee on the Whole, but no action was taken on it. A bill removing tbe political disabilities of Charles C Scott passed. A cart-load of old telegrams were shipped hence to day enroute for the paper mill. ' The Secretary and Treas ury forbids smoking during business hours. Before the Committee of Priv ileges and Elections Mr, Bunion, of M or tin & Ruuion testified that his firm bad issued checks in the 6th of Decem ber for eight thousand dollars, payable to Lodd & Rush, Salem, Oregon. Run ion declined to auswer fur whom he drew the check, regarding his business confidential.' Mr. Kerson said as Sen ator and lawyer he would advise the witness to answer, vitness persisted in refusing to answer and the matter went over. Afterwards Runion testi fied he had drawn the check for W T Pel ton, Secretary of National Demo cratic Committee. The cheek appears never to have been used. Col. Holli day of Virginia, was examined; was Centednial Commissioner and Demo cratic Elector, and did not attend the electoral college on account of his in eligibility, and the vacancy was filled according to law. FOREIGN. English Papers and their Surmises on the Turkish War. London, Jan 6. The Globe 3tates that Russia has ordered 14 (Krupp) eleven inch guns for Cons'tradt. The Pall Mall Gazette in an editorial note say 8 a telegram and news letter about the conference attitude of the Turks and disposition of Russians only deepen the obscurity of the whole ques tion. It seems doubtful whether any time more uncertainty or confusion had prevailed than at this moment. It was clear that the committee, of foreign statesmen in Constantinople has itself fallen into much disorder and tht iflhe Turks are ; only resolute enough at this hour, and are thereaf-. ter truly' solicitous and gpeedy in establishing reforms of their own and a new constitution, they re ay boastof having defeated and silenced all Europe. The Doty of Messrs;. Hates and Wheeler. The -witndrawal of Mr. Hayes and Mr. Wheeler from a con flict in which they must perceive that victory would - be dishonor is scarcely, perhaps, to be' hoped for, but at least it may be said that two public men coming at the same time to a generous and straightforward resolution, have it in their power to break through the cobwebs of technicalities and trickery. Their country, we are sure, would not forget so noble, a service. ' The presi dential election, whatever the formal result, ohowed a popular majority of some 300,000 votes for the democratic ticket, and the withdrawal of the re publican candidates would only give effect to ?the . will of; the people. It would be for tbe ad vantage even of the republican party itselt, which, under a new republican administration, would irretrievably go to pieces, but which in opposition may hope speedily to renew its strength. The ratification of re publican policy by a democratic gov ernment would be no unimportant gain, and it is certain that tor. Tilden will be as little able or willing to dis turb the constitutional amendments as the conservative administration of tbe last three years was disposed to con verse the legislation of Mr. Gladstone's government. London Times. How the Democrats Propose to get even with Secretary Chandler. A special to the Baltimore American says the democrats of the house are already fixing up the programme of what they would like to see done in the event of Mr Ttlden's inaugu ration, and among their plans is to one give prom inent place to ex-Gov Austin Blair, of Michigan, as a recognition of the " liberals," or rather renegrade repub licans who went over to the democracy in the last campaign. As Austin Btair was and is one of Secret ary Chandler's most implacable political ft.es, they think it would be a measure of poetic justice to let him succeed Chandler as secretary of the interior: They pretend to believe that there are same things in the interior department which ought to be thoroughly Investigated and ven tilated, and they know of no one who would take more pleasure or show more zeal in such an investigation and ventilation than Chandler's old foe.

Rahway, Jan 6.-Last evening Wal ter Lewis, aged 12 years, was adminis tered ether by Dr Westlake in order to have a tooth extracted and in fifteen minutes he was dead. It is believed death resulted from irregulation of the heart, as the ether administered was not enough to render him entirely un conscious.

The'grate sekrat ov popularity iz to make every one satisfied with himself hrst, and alterwards satisfied with yu. The unhappiness of this life seems principally to konsist in getting every thing we kan and wanting everything we bain t got. I hav finally cum to the konklushun that the bast epitaff ennv man kan lay, for all praktikal purposes, is a good bank ackount.
