Loxpox, March 25.—The controversy between England and Russia is approachiug that dan- werous stato whare a polnt of honor moroe and ‘more engages the attention. AUSTRIAN PEELING. LosDox, March 25.—Vienna correspondents eny the full text of the treaty of Ban Btefano has renewed a strong antl-Russian feeling there. There {s no difference of oplalcn about the réal meaning of the treaty. Itis not Russian pre- ponderanco but Russfan rule in Europcan Turkey, and ft is just becauso such alteration as would remova this feature would entirely destroy tuo treaty that less confldence is feit intho efficacy of the Congress slnce {ts publication. ‘While Count Andrassy will domand a revision of the entire treaty, he will decline to doeo ln comblnation with England, because thelr fnter- csts are not tdentical, 87. PerEnsouRg, March 25.—The Adqence Russe says Russla having communicated the entire preliminaries to the Powers, having declared that no secret treaty exists, aud having rocog- nized in each member of the Congreas the full right of discussing, proposing, anddeterminiug, tho London Cabinet’s conduct in Inslsting on {mposiog its formula upon Russia can only be regarded as bad chicanery, revealing anoffenaive intentlon. GERMAN OPINION, i . Brneay, March 25,~Tho North-German Gazetts says, considering to-day’s news, the meeting of tho Cungress at an oarly date can scarcely be any longer expected, A war betweon Russln and England, however, nocd not yet be regard. cd s a necebaary consequence of Kngland's at- titude. The Russian army remains at present near Canatantinople, and Its conduct will in the mato be regulated by that of the British flect. ENGLAND SHOULD DX 1GNORED, Brussees, March 25.~The Russlan orgnn, Le Nord, says there (s but little probability that the Congress will mect. It s, in conse- quenco ot Eogland's vlews, more to tho advan- tago of Europo that It should pot. The duty of Europe {s to settle the crisls withcut En- glaod. FRENCH OPINION, PaAR1s, March 25.—The Tempe says tho preva- Ient opinfon in diplomatic circles is that En gland's persistenco in her refusal to participate will cause tho abandonment of the Congress. 1t {s probable that if England refuses to teko part France and Italy will follow her cxample. ‘The Tanps doos not consider that an Anglo- Russian war is the necessary conscquence of England's abstention from the Congress. 10NATIRYY, 8T, IETRRSDURG, March 25.—The Agence Russe reports that Qen, Ignatiefl has started for Vieuna. [ CAUSE OF TIE DELAY. Loxpon, March 20—5 a, m.—A correspondent at Vienna says It s confirmed that Russia has not yet sent her final answor to England, The anawer is delayed pending efforts which Russia s maklog, with the spproval of Qermany, to ‘wean Austria from her last fdea of an English slliance. TOB TORYS EMPERORS. Aontague's Review declsres that it England does not attend the Congress tha three Emplres rust come to an understanding on Russia’s de- maods, 1¢ Engiand then considers It necessary to socure her uterests In the Mediterrancan she will discover that the frecdom of tho scas is, as Prince Blamarck recently declared, esscatially a German Interest. Tho correspondent has good reasons to assert that tho foregolng expresscs the views of Priace Blsmerck, CONSTANTINOPLE, LAYARD'S 8CURMING, * Loxpox, March 25.—A spectal from Pera says Laysrd, the British Awmbassador at Constanti- nople, {s tho hoad of a party who would rather sec England go to war with Russia onany grounds, however trivial, than not at all, The present Philo-Baoglish attitude of the Porte is due to the Intimate friendship botween Laysrd and Vefik Pushe, and the latter's tcmporary futluence over the Sultan. But the Bultsn Is & man of capricious and arbltrary temper, and of inferior capacity and resolugton. A Court or Cablnet Intrigue might destroy Vefk Pasha’s ascendancy sud change the whole Turkish pol- ey, O3MAN PASHA. UONSTANTINOI'LE, March 25.—~The Bultan on Sunday summnioned Osman Pasha to him, and in the presence of tho Minlsters expressed his warmest admiration and gratitude for his herolc defense of Plevna. Osman's public entrsnce 1oto Constautinople Is arravged for to-day, alter which he will reviow the troops at War Ministry, SERVIA, DISSATISFACTION. Lowpox, March £5.—A dispstch from Bel- grade says the publicstion of tha terms of peace has secured universal dissatisfaction in Bervis. The army will reoccupy all the positions 1t conquercd from Turkey, and hold them until the Cougress decides as to tby jwstice of 8ervia's clalms. The Grand Duke Nicholas bas made a pressing demand oo Servis to remobilize her reserves and concentrate them on the northern fronticr, but Servia has not complied.

Ehort and violent gusts of wind, nccompanfed by snow and dust storms of very unusual character, brinf as sudden, follow- cd rapidly from nearly opposito points of the compass. At 4 in the aftornoon, when off Dun- nose, and proceeding under full eall,a squall struck the Eurydice and she capsized and sank immediately, Tho schooner Emins, passiog the Eurydice at the time, rescued fivo persons, fncluding Licut, Francis H. Tabor, alter they had been an hour In the water, Thrco of these dled, 8o thoonly survivorsof the disaster are Benjamin Cuddiford, nble scaman, and Sydacy Fletcher, irst-class boy. A STATRMENT, The followlng s Cuddiford's statement: 4 The ship capsized in a squall and snow-storm, shout 4 in the afternoon, when five miles from Dunnose. There wers over 800 persons on board, all of whom, excopt Fletcher and my- self, were, I believe, lost. I was one of the last on the ship, Cnpt. Hare was ncar me when aho went down, after capsizing, and sha carried with ber a large number of men clineing to her or who woro drawn down in the vortex. A man near moe sald a vesscl was close by when the squall came on, and, therefore, we would be sure to be picked up. I was more than an hour inthe water, belog a first-rate swimmer, and very many of my comrades cricd to me for belp. I trled to assiat two or three, but at Jast there were four clinging to me, and 1 was oblized to kick thom off.. Our ship left Bermuda three wecks ago. - We passed the Liz- ard, in the County of Cornwall and the most southern part of Great Britain, yesterday, and expected to anchor at Spithead about 5 in the afternoon.*! ‘The Admiral commanding at Portsmouth has scnt steamers to scavch in the vicinity of the accldent, but no further report has been re- coived, s 200 refugeces TOE LOST. It is belleved the Eurydics bad about 820 offl- cers aud seamen, of which 370 were young men Intralolng, besides abont twenty officers and men taken oo board at Bermuda as invalids, Dunnose, off which the ship was lost, {aa lofty hesdland, and well knowa to visitors to the Isle of Wight, It s situated a short distance south of Bhanklin Chine, about midway from that voins to Black Gang Chine. TOE XURTDICE was commissioned at Portsmouth la Fobruary, 1877, and went on a practice crulsa to the West Indies, whonce she had been for some days ex- pected at Portsmouth, LITTLR nOYR. The Llogds place the nuinber on board at 815. Two only are known to be ssved, though a tele- gram from Ventnor states that a bark was scen bearing towards Dunnose just befors the squall, and there is somo hopu she may havo rescued others. In consoquence of the strong cbb tide and the north wind at the timo, tho bodics are not expected to como ashore. All bands were mustering on deck for prayers at tho time of the disaster. ¥ROX TOB BIIORE. But’ for a passing schooner nothing would have been known of the dissster, as everything op the sca was hidden from those on shure by & blinding snow-storm, and it would hava heen thought the ship had gonec on to Spithead. At 8:80 tho csplanado at Ventoor was crowded with visitors admiring the Eurydice, which was carrying every avallablo stitch of canvas. She sailed so close to the shore that from the pler- head tho cordage of the rigging was visible, Buddenly the sky becamo overcast, aad snow and slect descended quickly, driving the prom- enaders to cover and hiding the vesscl from view. When tho storm lifted, only the schooner Ewmma lowering ber boats could be seon. PLETCOER states that ho was below when, hearing a nolse on deck, he ntshed up and found tho vesscl on ber side {n a sinking condition. Ho had been in the water scarcely a minute when tho vessel lurched forward, drawiog him aown sach o dis- tance that he gave himsclf up for lost, but the Mfe-buoy drew nim to tho surface. ‘Tho vcesel Jies with ber masts visiblo two miles off Luccombo Uhioe Point, whero the ravine runs down to tho ses, and through which the wind blowe with a force agaiust which only close-rcefed vessels can stand. Doats went out last night tosearch for bodles, but nono were found. Boveral guuboats are to- day crutslug In _the neighborhood. Au effort will be made to ralso the vesacl, T00 MUCR SAIL. A telegram from Cowos says: *“Thero i3 o doubt the Eurydice was carrying too much sall, Bhn‘hfl her lower apd upper studding sails sel.'! NEARLY FOUR HUNDRED LOST. A Portsmooth tolegram says it Is feared that with the men embarked at Bermuda, aud proba- bly from Admiral Koy's squadron, North America, and West Indies, the Eurydics had nearly 400 persons on board. OFFICIAL LIST, Loxwpox, March 26—5 a, m.—The official lst tssued by the Admiralty shows tte Eurrdice's officers and crew bumbered 208 men. HBeven, however, wera possibly loft at Barbsdoes In prison. Al accounts agreo that there were slso from twenty to thirty passengers, officers, fn- valids, men whoso time had expired, etc, on board. ROME, TAR NRW ITALIAN MINISTRY.

HAOWE'S HIOWI., A MALIGNANT IMPLACANLE, Spectal Dupatch to The Tridune, Wasninarox, D. C.. March 25.—8Henator Howe hasdelivered his pronunclamento, accord- {ng to advertisement. It was & vigorous phil- ipple. As an oratorical effort It will undoubted- 1y be claased as the best of Lils Scnatorial carecr. Bcostor Howe s not a pleasing Bpeaker, o may be stiver-haired and silver-tongued, but he does not often hold the galleries. To-day ho did. About every Senator listened, and it was manilcst that a number of the leading Repub- licans {adorsed all that was sald, For two and a hatl hours he held the audlence, which alled every vacant spaco upon the Senate floor and which densely packed the galleries. In the sudience was the army of the alscontent- ed. The ex-Congressmen and disappointed office-hunters wers present In great numbers. Bl Chandler looked down from the galleries: Qov. Packard smiled grimly from a comforta- ble corner bebind the curule chalrs. Tue men who zre not {n the Cabinet, snd who hoped to be; who have been and arc pot; those who sought to be Postmasters and could not be, were all there. The whole army of tho dis- gruntled and the disappointed were thereln full force to enjoy TS HOATILE DEMONATRATION against an unappreciated Administration. The speech 88 such will spesk for ftself. It has been furnfshed the press in advance, It was evidently very carefully preparcd. It was a curfous literory mosalc. There wero logical vresentations of fact interspersed with Script- tursl quotations aud jocular remarks n almost profane proximity. The only custinuous pol- fcy of the spcech was [ts captious, carping critt- clsm of the Admintstration. At first this at- tracted attention, but after the first hour it lost its movelty, and the speaker dragged to theend. The chascterization of Behure, con- sidered as & literary prudluction, was the sherp- cst, as it was tho meancst and the bitterest. It would, porhavs, have somcwhat modficd Howe's rancor had he known that at the mo- ment that fla spoke * CARL BCHURZ HAD BEEX WIRICKEN DOWN at his deak fo the Interlor Departwent with what at firat scemed a severe sttack of heart- diseasc, and was taken home by his physictans. e is better this cvening. Howo's sketch of the Loutsiana situntion was the passage which will give the Adminlstration the most trouble. It was an elaboration of the familiar saging, that if Hayces Is Presidcot Packe ard {s Governor; that If the President fs not & usurper, Nicholls 1s. ‘There are, of course, diverse vlews of tha effect of this speech. What follows doubtloss repro- sents conservative Republican opinlon.

Otner Scna- tors may speak on tho Whittaker resolutious which Judge Howo offered, although this ls not certaln; but there aru po indications of any precoucerted aftack on tho President, or of suy defenss of Lis policy so bitterly assatled. The question is asked, What is Howe's RENOUNORD HIS ALLEGIANCE DEMOCRATIO COMMENT.

Howe's speech bore evidence of prolonged at- Lention to his subject, and onc Scnator was so cruel as to remark to a crowd of friends that i1 the Impression ho received was that Hows he- @an to write it the day Gen. Harlan's nome was sent in for the Suprome Court. Thoss who knew that Howe, in addition to having many Iriends at work for _him to procurs this vacancy on the Bench, was aleo o personal applleant for it, and that [n this line he even went up to the White llouse with the man who had been fized on for bis successor fn the Benate to talk the matter over, were not at Joss to understand this attack. The fact is, Howe was all miniles to the Presi- dent, and had only pleasant words for him up to the time of tho Jallnge of his own application for place. Thero has been nn speclal change in the Southerg policy orthe Loulslana matter since Howe tried to make hiinec)! agrecable at the White louse. The chict significance of his speech lies o the fact that it fs regarded omong Republican Scnators as the first an- nouncemont that they have concluded to try and carry on the party witbout the President, and that they intend to Ignore him 8o far as possible. The speech was not made iithout » very general understanding of its character, and o full knowledge on Howe's part that it would be welcomed by a large class of Repub- licaus ta Congress. TIUR WISCOXSIN DELEGATION, ‘The speech was made without consulation with other members of the Wisconain delega- tion. Bome of themn to-nignt st heart approve Howe's course, but cven those who do say they would wuot lke o try the ex- perfment for themselves. When it wos lcarned from the newspspers that Howo intended to mako this attack.the oroposition was made by some of the Representativts that they should visit him and advise bim to desist, cspecially as they were just about entering upon a campalgn, and should not precipitate such a conflict fu the Btate without somo actfon In the delegatfon. Beoator Angus Camcron, however, supgested that fo would be better, as ho put it “let tho old mian alono.” Matt Carpenter summed up the effect of Ilowe's speech in these words: “ What Horace Greeley sald was true,—*Thero are Republicans envugh for one party, but there are not enoueh for two,' That {s trno of Wis- consin this fall, and of the nation in 18%0." To the TWeatern Ansoctate WasiNaToN, D, Gy Sarch 33.—Ththe Sen- ate, at the explration of the morning bour, Mr. IHowe called up his resolution askivg tho Iresl deat for information In reward to the alleged defaleation of Judge Whittaker, of Louisians, and mude his promiscd speechi, Mr. Howe said: Durlng the past year we have scen here and everywhere throughout the country small but active squads of polttical in- quisitors busy with tho work o1 assaillng tho Republican party, gathering into ballowed gar- ners all those who avow themsclves supporiers of the President's policy, and pounug. un- quenchable fire upon all the rest.
