A vehicles crawled lazily along. Muffed figures about the city like restless shadows, the fog to deaden all sound. Over the River Thames brooded a dead silence. It was a most gloomy depressing day. SUNLIGHT AND JOY. To-day the city is Nooded with bright sunshine, and rs revel in seeing their city and each other more. \ AN EAR TO FOREIGN AFFAIRS. “The first Mush of the excitement after the open- of Parliament is over and the nation is settling to listen to what the government says about it foreign matters. ENGLAND AND TURKEY. Lord Derby, in replying to the Queen’s Speech in House of Lords, defended England’s adhesion to Andrassy note. His principal reason was that, had abstained from joining the three imperial Germany and Austria—the Porte have rejected Count Andrassy’s proposals England would have been called on to defend ¢ Porte from the consequences of such rejection. THR PROSPECTS OF PRACE. Lord Derby doubted that the insurgents will lay their arms, but he said that if Austria ob- a strict neutrality on the seaboard that they it be forced to yield. England remains free for Lord Derby stated that his great anxiety to stave off a religious war in Turkey. ‘THE SUEZ CANAL CRUSADE. + Lord Derby denied that England, in purchasing the Canal, wanted to establish an exclusive protec- over Egypt or a monoply of the canal, but, added, no other country must monopolize the ‘THE COMMONS AND THE CANAL. in the House of Commons Lord Hartington, leader the liberal opposition, doubtee whether the canal will be aseful in securing Engiand’s route India.

In time war the use of the canal would depend solely with Xercise of territorial right by the Sultan or the ive, or both. He hoped the government would the purchase, DISRAELI’S REPLY, Mr. Disraeli made, from an English standpoint, a tly effective speech, the peroration of which ives his views on the subject thus:— “England is the great Mediterranean Power, main- chain of fortresses which she will never juish, extending almost from the gates of the tropolis to India. In this chain the canal is no ean link. The purchase was necessary to prevent canal from falling entirely into foreign hands. ‘was necessary, therefore, for maintaining the Empire, aud thus proper policy for the nation.” | AN APPLAUDING ROAR ON THE PART OF THE LION. ‘Naturally this declaration of the Premier was en- \Chustastically recetved. GLADSTONE'S ACQUIESCENCE. Mr. Gladstone shows magnanimous loyalty tg him- in pronouncing in favor of the fature policy of government regarding Turkey and the necessity purchasing the canal A MURMUR PROM THE DEMOCRACY AND LIBERALS. ‘The session of Parliament thus commences in & amiable fashion.

The Telegraph and Standard editorials on John- son's defence of Minister Schenck have had great influence on the English mind, and sympathy is felt for the latter in the loss ofa “friend in need.” His initiative has doubtiess given the American resi- dents in London courage, in answer to the recent Congressional resolution, to frame the following docu- ment, which is now being signed under the auspices of J. S. Morgan, the banker:— THE RESOLUTION. “We, the undersigned Americans, residents ‘in London, having noticed a concerted assault upon the Hon. R. C. Schenck, Minister of the United States at the British Court, desire to express our continued confidence in his private in- tegrity and public/ usefulness, and also to assert that nothing that has been alleged against him in connection with the Emma Mine has shaken our re- gard for him asa gentleman and statesman, being Satisfied that his evidence on oath, under a severe cross-examination before a judicial commission, has fully vindicated his character against all accu- sations, evidence which satisfied a lawyer so astute as the Hon. Reverdy Johnson.” AN UNSERVED WRIT. Regarding the Emma Mine and Schenck, I have & copy of a writ before me, issued January 10, clalm- ing damages for fraudulent misrepresentation, con- cealment and conspiracy to defraud the petitioning company. This suit was actually issued from the Writ Omice of the Queen’s Bench Division, sum- moning Schenck to enter an appearance within eight days from the time of service. I found no entry of service or appearance. \ : WHAT BECAME OF IT. The fact is the writ is now in Macdougal’s desk and may possibly never be delivered, Macdougal being evidently doubtful about the prudence of such a course, fearing an action for defamation of character, which I have reason to believe Mr. Schenck has been advised to take. 4 REASONS WHY. In any case, Macdougal probably thought more of advertising his paper, the Hour, than of protecting the shareholders when he issued the writ. A VICTIM OF ENGLISH STOCK JOBBING MANAGEMENT. The Anglo-American Times to-day has an able edi- torial on the subject, claiming that Mr. Schenck is the victim of the English joint stock management, and that the hew directors, under Macdougal, have sought as a victim the man who was the chief victim of the conspiracy, if conspiracy there were. The article, written by an English gentleman, is entirely unbiased and honorable in motive. THE PRESSMAN AND THE DIPLOMATIST. Ihave devoted much space to this subject, believ- ing that Macdougal’s real motive was to advertise his paper, which he could not do better than by aim- ing writs at high personages. SCHENCK AND THE VOLUNTEERS. I may add that Mr. Schenck yesterday distributed prizes at the annual meeting of the Twentieth regi- ment of Middlesex Volunteers, at which he made some pleasant remarks on the subject of interna- tional courtesies, and hoped that the English volun- teers would be represented at Philadelphia. THE DRAMA. ‘The only dramatic event of the past week is Tom Taylor’s “Anne Boleyn,” which is a dainty picture ofcourt life and manners, with picturesque Tudor scenery and dresses, rather than a drama entitled to @ fixed place in the English répertoire, OPERA. In English operatic matters the papers confirm last week's announcement of Rosa's intention to produce Wagner’s “Flying Dutchman.” THE DYNAMITE PLOT ON THE STAGE. ‘The Thomassen play at the Josephstadt Theatre, Vienna, seems successful financially, The authors do not stick close to history. Thomassen lives in ex- pensive style in Vienna, His mistress demands $70,000. He orders a clock, sends his wife and child, his mistress, the maker of the infernal clock and his wife, a clockmaker’s journeyman and the clock- maker’s son, who 1s captain of the ship, on board. There is a terrible explosion, and the curtain falls amid stormy applause. The light-hearted Vienese audience was visibly affected. THE MONEY MARKET. The tendency of money during the past week has been upward. First class paper is in large re- quest. A better feeling exists in the market. AMERICAN SECURITIES. i These are fairly sustained, and the demand for them is unabated. It is a noteworthy fact that English newspapers are extolling them and recom- Mending capitalists as well as small investors to buy. The purposes of what may be called the “hard money” party of America have. added not a little to English confidence, and the former have become influential. It is scarcely a matter of question that American bonds will in time be the greatest favorities of this market outside of home securities. Local speculation has been somewhat in- animate, having felt the dulness which generally prevails. AMERICAN RAILROAD BONDS are especially noticeable because of their strength. ‘They also elicit favorable public comment, and are attracting purchasers. The possibilities of the Oen- tennial year, the growth of the country and the known energy of Americans are features that are taken into consideration even in this English mar- ket, and they contribute to the confidence that is every day more or less shown whenever a good Yan- kee bond is offered for sale, TURKISH BONDS. ‘These promise to become the subject of considera» ble Parliamentary discussion. Few people outside of government - circles know their exact status. Much, however, depends on the action of Parliament. Nothing adverse is expected; but if it occurs, even in the shape of delay, it may complicate affairs and afford French speculators an extraordinary opportunity. It is be- Heved that a large number of orders have been put in the market from Paria to buy these shares, and the feeling of rivalry is strong. ' GENERAL BUSIVESS. Commercial affairs are in the main satisfactory. ‘Trade ts improving. The prices of products are firm, and dealers are less despondent than they have been during the past month. It must be confessed, how- ever, that the causes for any sharp improvement are yet ill defined and that speculators are giving to the market its most hopeful tone. Another despatch states that there has been no new feature of interest in the Mincing Lane markets during the week. Buyers are still showing great want of confidence, but prices, with few exceptions, have not suffered further depression. Sugar is very flat, The reported deficiency in Cuba on account of the drought has had no influence here. Coffee ts firm. Ceylon descriptions are rather dearer, but others are steady and inactive. Rice ts quiet. ‘At the Stock Exchange there has been but little doing to-day, though most of the changes in price have been in an upward direction. American securi- ties have generally been steady. ‘There is less demand for money in the open mar- ket, but rates are generally maintained. There has been no bullion movement at the Bank of England PARIS GOSSIP. |BERLIN NOTES. The Shifting Scenes of Eu- ropean Politics.

Tae Haoos, Feb. 12, 1876 Nothing has come to the cognizance of the author!- ties here respecting tho arrival or apprehension of Winslow, alias Clifton, the Boston forger. PREPARATIONS FOR HIS ARREST IN LONDON. Boston, Feb. 12, 1876. It has been definitely ascertained that Exra D. Winslow is to-day in London, and it is probable that he will be arrested before nightfall. Upon the dis- covery of his forgeries a committee of the Boston banks telegraphed to Mr, Spaulding, a banker in Paris, to proceed to Rotterdam and use all possible efforts to secure the arrest of the fagitive. Mr. Spaulding telegraphed to A. 8, Benyon this morning that Winslow was in London, snd the fact being communicated to the police, and then to Mayor Cobb, the latter telegraphed to Hon. Robert Schenck, United States Minister to England, tocause Winslow's arrest, A MESSAGE FROM THE LONDON POLICE AND THE REPLY. Boston, Fob. 12—Night. ‘This afternoon Mayor Cobb received a despatch from the Chief of Police of London asking for a specific charge against Winslow. In response the nature of the indictment recently found against Winslow was communicated to the authorities of London, and in case of his arrest there ‘Winslow can then be complained of ass fugitive from justice and held till the arrival of officers from Boston, ‘The despatch says that Winslow is in London, GERMANY. FRIENDLY GOVERNMENTS TO SUPPORT THE IM- PERIAL RECLAMATION AGAINST CHINA. Bent, Feb, 10, 1876. ‘The Reichsanceiger states that the governments of the United States, England and Rassia have promised to support any steps that the German Envoy to China may be authorized to take in connection with the caso of the German schooner Hannah, which was plundered off Foo-Chow last September by Chinese inhabitants, It ts hoped that from this action satistaction may be obtained for tho outrage, and that the Chinese govern- ment will be convinced of the nocossity of taking in Bismarck Defying a Court Intrigue for His Removal.

MORE GRIEF FOR VON ARNIM. . The physicians declare Count Von Arnim’s son hopelessly ill. His father is expected to arrive soon in the capital. Emperor William has ordered the Minister of Justice to report on Count Arnim’'s pardon. His sentence of imprisonment will, prob- ably, be transmuted into a money fine, Bismarck being said to have advocated the latter course after Arnim’s guilt had been legally established. CITIZEN NATURALIZATION IN AMERICA, The endeavors of Herr Kapp and other legislative Deputies urging the government to a denunciation ofthe treaty of naturalization with America seem fruitless. The government, desirous for a continua- tion of the friendship now existing with America, uphold the efficacy of the treaty. BISMARCK’S POWERFUL ENEMLES. Bismarck, in his allusions during his speech on Wednesday, in the Reichstag, about the secret in- Stigators of the war alarm last spring, said, re- ferring to the Empress Augusta, Princess Radziville and Count Nesselrode, the Empress’ Chamberlain, that “an influential Court clique continues intrigu- ing” against him, and hopes to effect his (Bismarck’s) removal.

All things point to an active participation by Ser- via and Roumanis, before long, in the insurrection against Turkey. Roumania aims at her own auton- omy.

The piece 1s an immense artistic success, but it has a malicious ten- dency of increasing the French proverbial distrust of foreigners, particularly Americans. The drama fs tn other respects a masterpiece. The cast is ad- mirable, particularly Sarah Bernhardt as L’Etrangere and Croizette as the Duchess.

Several losser fatlures are announced at Palermo and at other points fn Sicily in consequence.

Lonvon, Fob, 12, 1876, ‘Tae following isa synopsis of the Adriatto-Harvest Queon inquiry as published in the London Shipping Gasette last evening :— In giving judgment the Court said there was no doubt that the vessel in question was the Harvest Quen, and that she foundered; but after anxious de- Libsration the Coart was of the opinion that the master of the Adriatic was not to blame for the collision, and that he did all that could be expected of him by putting oa. boats and following the vessel to render assistance, The Court therefore retarned Captain Jennings his certificate, bat expressed regret at the want of frank- ness in the eniries in the log book as to the affair, and also at the roticnnoe evinced by the officers of the Adriatic in dence.

GENERAL ORD'S METHOD FOR. STOPPING TRE CATTLE STEALING FORAYS. Wasurvoron, Feb. 12, 1876. Genoral Ord, Commander of the Military Department of Texas, was examined to-day as a witness before the Select Commitiee of the House on the Texas frontier troubles, and gi to the committee a very full and intelligent account of the cattle raids, to which the Fancheros on the American side of the Rio Grande for 500 miles along the river and for 150 miles back from it are subjected, as well as of the remedy which ho would recommend them. Acoording to the General’s statement the country which is the sceue of these border forays is separated from the river by a very extensive belt of undergrowth forest, or chapparal, which forms a screen and shelter for the cattle tlieves, who live by plunder, and which rendors it mext to impossiblo for military patrols qr military posts to interfere with them There are two classes of Mexicans living on the Texas side— the one consisting of intelligent, honest rancheros, who are as much opposed to these raids as the Ameri- can portion of tho population, and the other consist- ing of worthless fellows, many of them outlaws or de- serters from the Mexican army, who work occasionally on the ranches and who act ag spies and informers for their cousins or compadres on the other side when they cross the river on thoir cattle stealing expeditions. . It is the intelligence which they receive from those fel- lows which enables them to avoid the routes by which they might be intercepted on their returm with their booty On their own side of tho river these bands, which sometimes number from 100 to 150 men, are in league with the local authorities, their recognized chief being Cortina, so all the facilities aro given to ‘them for disposing of their plunder, and such @ thing as restoration of the stolen cattle is never thought of, The national government of Mexico is not to be tamed, in General Ord’s opinion, for this state of things; first, because the systom of the government is to fet each State take care of its o rs, and second, because the Mexican soldiers have a strong tendency, whenover they get near enough to the border, to desert their col- ors and cross into Texus, The Mexican government is, therefore, powerless in the matter, and the State gov- ernment of Tamauli seems to regard these frontier forays as part of the established order of things essen- tial for the good of the comminity. The only remedy, therefore, for the evil is—and it is ono which the General is urging on-the War Depart- mont—to increase the cavalry force on the Rio Grande, and give him authority when his troops come on the trail of one of these thieving bands, to let the pursuit be continued to the Mexican side of the river, and let the troops deal out summary punishment on the robbers. He thinks that, whatever opposition the local authorities might make to such a prac- tical course, the general government of Mexico. would not make any. Hoe says that now, in one of the more northern States (Chihuhua), himself and the Mexican commandant have a mutual arrangement by which Indian expeditions are followed on either side of the river, and that on some occasions the American and Mexican troops have co-operated in their movements against the Indians, rations being sup- plied by his order to the Mexicans. He is confident that the, only feasibie mode of putting down these forays by folowing up the robbers in the way he recommends, A MAIL POUCH FOUND. Moni.s, Ala, Feb. 12, 1876. ‘The mail pouch from New Orleans to New York of the 7th inst. was found this evening in Choctaw Swamp, and about 7,500 letters containing drafts and foreign exchange bills to a —_ amount recovered, all ina damaged condition. The letters and drafts will be re- ‘turned by to-morrow morning's mail to New Orleans for identification. CENTRAL VERMONT AND RUTLAND RAILROADS. Boston, Feb, 12, 1876, It is reported that the differences that existed between the Central Vermont and tho Rutland railroads have been settled at a conference of the oflotals of the two roads in this city, and that tho terms will be submitted to the meetings of the stockholders of the two corpora- tions at Brattleboro on the 26th of this month. Under this arrangement the Rutland, the Central Vermont and the Vermont and Canada roads will be run as one line, The monthly payments of rent to the Rutland company will be resumed, and the carnings of the three roads being pooled its sbare will be about thirty-six per cent of the whole. The Rutland company will also ro- ceive pay for back rent, the sum to be paid being ander- stood to be $250,000. THE WALLKILL VALLEY RAILWAY. Mippietows, Fob. 12, 1876. James A. Jones, the present Superintendent, has been appointed receiver of the Wallkill Valley Rail- way, from Montgomery, Orange county, to Kingston, Ulster county, on the petition of the trustees of the first torteaae bondholders. Receutiy the second mort- gage bondholders foreclosed, bought and have been running the road. A NEW RAILROAD. Bostox, Feb. 12, 1876.
