England has Called Oat Her ReserTe, and Russia is Ready for the. Fray Stock Markets Firmer. London, March 30. The Times' dis patch from Vienna says : "The views of Austria and Russia are so widely di vergent that the feasibility of an un derstanding is doubtful. Austria is certainly opposed to any scheme of partition." 'The Times in its leading editorial speaks of the apyointment of the Mar quia of Salisbury to be foreign secre tary as an actual fact, and considers it may be taken as a pledge that no meas ure of mere hostility to Russia will be adopted, and it should facilitate fur ther negotiations. A special from Belgrade to the Itmes reports that the Servians have received orders from San Stefano to march with all their available forces to Pristana and Albania. A Vienna dispatch to the Telegraph says it is rumored that Bismarck is making further tnorts to assemble the congress, and has asked England to forward the precise statement of her demands. A special to the Telegraph from Pera states that the visit of the Grand Duke Nicholas has ended. All foreign -vessels, except the English, manned their yards as he left in the imperial yacht on Thursday. The Telegraph has the following from Vienna : "The news from England has brought Ignatien's negotiations to a stand still. Count Andrassy will at present listen to no proposal, and would certainly, in the event of an Anglo-Russian war, insist upon the concessions which Russia is now indis posed to make. The committee of Austria, General Staffin, hae reported that the treaty of San Stefano would compel Austria to extend her military power over Bervia, Montenegro, Bos nia and Albania." A special to the Daily Netvsr from Constantinople announces that the Turks haye abandoned Kavak at the Black Sea entrance of the Bosphorus. Russian newspapers state that many advantageous offers for letters of marque in case of an Anglo-Russian war have been received from the Unit ed States and elsewhere, but none have been. accepted so far. J-iOXDon, March 30. At this hour (12:30 p. m.) the stock exchange is quieter and much nrmer with a con siderable recovery in prices. All Vienna correspondents ot Lon don journals concur in the statement that General Ignatieff s mission has failed. The Times' Vienna correspond ent doubts whether General Ignatieff has the power and will so to alter his map of Bulgaria as to suitihe views there, but even should some Kind of agreement be. come to about the map, there will still be a good deal to be said as to the organization of the principali ty by Jtussia, and its occupation by 50,000 men for two years. The desire for an understanding may be sincere, but the views are so widely divergent that it may be doubted whether this will be easy of accomplishment. The Times leading editorial article says: "JNeitner tne objects nussia proclaimed at the outset nor tne events of the war justified her advance upon Constantinople or her approach to the Bosphorus and Dardanelles. As long as she remains in that menacing posi tion, we shall feel that it is necejsary to retain our ships in the Sea of Mar- ihora, and so long, consequently, will peace be uncertain. It is Russia who has trespassed upon the forbearance of Encland. not Enerland who has shown a lack of consideration for her. That forbearance has now been strain ed to its utmost limits, but nothing but necessity would induce us to assert our rights by force, and a timely and tem perate concession on the part of the Russian cabinet would, without in the least degree compromising the inter ests of Russia, insure the peace of Europe." The rera correspondent oi tne limes telegraphs that he believes a thorough understanding between the Russians and Turks has been brought about by the efforts of Reuef Pasha, commander-in-chief, who remoyed the obstacles to Grand Duke Nicholas visit to Constan tinople, and inspired the Sultan with cordial feeliBg towards the Grand Duke. The same correspondent also says he learns on nnn aumoniy inai me lurs ish troops have been so far withdrawn from the positions recently occupied near the. Bosphorus, that the Russians would no longer fand anything to pre vent them from marching to the coast and seizing a fort which commands the entrance to the Black Sea. London, March 30. A section of the Liberals will oppose the Queen's mes sage calling out the reserve, lhe pro bability is that the British fleet will shortly enter the Bosphorus. xne re port that Salisbury succeeds Derby is formally contradicted.

McADENST Presm THE POPE'S P0IICT. He Keturns to the Old Constitution of the Church. London, March 30th. The Timed Rome correspondent telegraphs: "Pope .Leo s allocution, aeiiverea at tne con sistory on Thursday, gives the Italians general satisfaction. The allusion to the church's captivity-is very mild. His Holiness expresses no intention to struggle for the recovery of his tem poralities. The main stress of the alio? cution is laid on the relations which it is intended should exist between the Fope and the Cardinals, the Sacred College and Council of Seventy, called by Moses to be his assistants and. ad visers in the government of the people of Israel. He wishes the Cardinals to be his by-standers and fellow-laborers, and lest it should be thought that merely unmeaning words fell from his lips, he expresses that all the reliance he puts on them is council trusting, and begging that it may never fail him. It was the dearest wish of the Council of Trent that the administration of the Universal Church should rest on the council of the Cardinals. This, "says the Times, correspondent," is a clear hint of a return to the old constitution of the church, and the reference to the Council of Trent seems plainly intend ed as a repeal of the act of the Vatican Council, which by declaring Pope Pius Ninth infallible, entitles nim to dis pense with the advice either of the College or Council. To the Vatican synod itself, to the proclamation of the dogma of infallibility or to that of the immaculate conception and to all the acts of Pius Ninth except the re constitution of the Scotish hierarchy, no allusion whatever occurs in the al locution. The acts of the deceased Pantiff have.been sanctioned by the Church and most stand, but Pope Leo seems to think that the least said about them will be the soonest mended. By his choice of Cardinal Depietro, one of the youngest and decidedly most bril liant of the Cardinals as Camer lingo, the Pope confirms the hope of those conciliatory views which were always thought to animate him, and which were expected to actuate his policy in his dealing with the ciyil powers. WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. Washington, March SO. The de parture of the postal excursion to Ha vana is delayed to Wednesday. The Senate Railroad committee has agreed to report the bill extending the time for constructing the .Northern Pacific Railroad, with the condition that a certain number of miles be built yearly.

During the war our townsman, James B Moore, on one occasion went outiu front of our lines to give some water to' a wounded yankee who was lying in a helpless condition upon the ground but" lately occupied by the Federal forces and from which they had recently been driven. The man was crying pi teously for water, and the bullets were rattling around, irom ootn armies. Moore said he intended to risk the exposure to do a deed of mercy and went out to him. It proved to be a captain of a Pennsylvania regiment, who was profuse with thanks and offered Moore his gold watch .which the gallant Confederate declined. 1 He begged for his name that he might, if he survived the war, remember him. This be wrote down in hia memorandum book. The captain recently wrote here to know if Moore was living saw ne was rich but dying of consumption and wanted to provide for Moore in his will. Mr Moore wrote to him and re ceived a friendly letter in reply telling him there was ten thousand dollars set apart for his use, to be paid in install ments Oi two tnousana eacn. i-ine Federal officer has since died and the other day the first payment of two thousand dollars was received.
