A Bervian bulletin announces that fighting occurred -yesterday between Alexinatz and Deligrad, on the left bank of the Morava, which terminated in favor of the Servians, No details have been received. General Ranco Olimpics has been superseded tn com- mand of the Servian army of the Drina by Colonel ir- eovich. Twelve hundred Italian voluntcers arc expected to arrive at Belgrade shortly. TCRERNAYRFY MARD PRESSED, The tone of official bulletins from Belgrade do not indicate confidence in Tchernayelfl’s ability to hold his Position, and the recall of Horvatovich from the Turk- ‘sk frontier, where 1t had been declared ho could de- feat tho Turkisn campatgn by interrupting communt- cation with Nisch, is evidenco that Tchernsyeff ts hard pressed. ANOTHER SERVIAN DISASTER. The Times’ Belgrade correspondent says there is great depression there already and roports are curront ofa fresh disaster to the Servian army. *The Times’ Vienna correspondent telegraphs that ho has information from Metrovitz confirming the re- Ported defeat of the Servians on the Drina on the 8th and 9th insis, The Servians were driven back to Bhabatz, but asthe Turks did not follow up their ad- ‘vantage the Servians reoccupied their line on tho Drina onthe 10th inst, THE PORTE RESOLVED TO REFUSE AN ARMISTICE. ‘A special despatch to the Pali Mail Gazette from Berlin says:—Tho Porte has definitely resolvod to re- fuse an armistice, but declares its readiness to discuss terms of peace. The Porte will not object to a suspen- Bion of hostilities, provided the Powers show as earnest Bdesire toconclude @ peace as they have to bring about an armistice. EAE PORTR RECONSIDERING ITS CONDITIONS OF PEACE. The Post says it has reason to believe that an extraor- dinary Cabinet council, which ‘was held yesterday at Constantinople, will prove of great importance toward peedy and pacific solution of the conflicts inthe Ut- toman Dominica. Concerning this council a despatch to Reuter’s Tele- gran Compauy merely says:—“Conditions of peace wero discussed. '” PROMPT ACTION OF THE BRITISH AMBASSADOR. A special despatch to tho Times {rom Vieunn, how- ever, says the council was held for the purpose of re- considering the resolution previously taken by tho Cabinet, and which should bave been presented to the Powers on Mquiay. The correspondent says this re- consideration at the last hour is undoubtedly due to the step taken by the Powors at the initiative of England. Mr. Elliot, the British Ambassador, was in a position to know jhe resolution of the Porto to decline an armis- tice and come forward with conditicns which were not likely to bo accepted as a basis of pacification fit to be discussed. He, of course, informed his government. Two days intervened, Thursday, the day of the inves- titure of the Sultan at the Mosque of Kyoub, and Fri- day, the Turkish Sabbath, when no official businces is transacted. These two days were taken advantage of by the British Cabinet to make, in conjunction with the other Powers, one more eifort w repre. went to the Tarks the gravity of the moment, and, if possible, to Induce them to reconsider the resolution they had taken. AN EARNEST RPFORT POR PRAcE. On Saturday morning all the ambassadors had re- coivod instructions to join England in addressing new and urgent representations to the Porte, which was done. It was not one of those merely formal steps taken rather to {uifli a duty than with auy betief tn its possible efficacy. Although each Ambassador made his communication singly, the language prescribed by their Jostructions was almost identical ana represented most earnestly and impressively the danger to which the Porse exposed the Empire if it rejected the opportunity afforded to put an end to the war, and that noone could save Tarkey from tho possible effects of such a faial resolution. THR PORTE BROUGHT To REASON. Language like this, supported as $t was with all the authority of the great guaranteeing Powers, appears not to bave been without effect, for the answer shat Was about to be given the Powers has been delayed ana the resolution has been taken under fresh cons:dera- on. Thero are no indications what the resun of theto renewod deliberations may oe, but all accounts from Constantinople concur that the impression pro- duced has been a deep one. Meantime the Turks have . again commenced active operations in the fold. Viexwxa, Sept 13, 1876, Prince Gortschakof has sent rince Bismarck the distinct conditions under which Kussia will maintamn peace with Turkey. A EUROPEAN WARK PROBABLE. Loxpos, Sept. 13, 1876.

FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPOND! ‘Wasu:vatom, Sept. 13, 1876, REPRESENTATIVE HEREFORD AND THE BIVER AND HARBOR BILL—PRESIDENT GBANT'S POWERS UNDER THE ACT DISCUSSED. Representative Hereford, of West Virginia, who fathered the River and Harbor bill in the House, and who succeeded in getting the lion’s share of the appro- priation for his State, has become somewhat ; concerned to know how the President, as is alleged, 1s going to curtail in the exercise of bis Executive power the expenditure of any for- tion of the apprepriation as it affects any particalar section. He says such uuthority is not pro- vided for in the law and that Presidons Grant cannot in any way constitutionally inteftere with a law of Congress in its application to prevent its being carried out just as that body intended it, Meantime it is said that the Presidont is inclined to see to it that the aggre- gate expenditures contemplated tn tho bili shall be made under an equitable distribution of the whole amount appropriated. It remains a matter of doudt yet how be will properly reach such an end 1p the dis charge of his oxecutive duties simply or what new in- terpretation can bo pat on the provisions of the River and Harbor bill beyond what is covered by them just a9 it passed. PASSER Sena SCHURZ’S RETIREMENT. REPUBLICAN OPINIONS ON THE EFFECT OF THE . WITHDRAWAL—RESULT OF IGNORING THR ORTHODOX ISSUES--THE GREAT LIDERAL'S INFLUENCE ON THE FORTHCOMING ADMINIS- TRATION TO BR DESTROTED—THE MOVING CAUSE OF THE COMMITTEE’S ACTION, Wasmixatox, Sept 13, 1876. . The reported withdrawal of Carl Schurz from the campaign by the action of the National Executive Re- | publican Committes, as one of thelr principat speakers, has excited agreat deal of comment here, and it if asked, with a deep felt anxiety among the ropublicans, whether it will have a good or bad effect upon the Mberal and German vote. By somo the move Is thought to be fll advisod, as it MAY CREATE DISAFYRCTION and a partial, if not entire, loss of the support of that clement, It was said by some zealous republicans to day that the step thus taken by the committee was too severe and too much on tho heroic order; that it would have been more judicious to have had Governor Hayes writo to Mr. Schurz restraining him from his attacks on the administration of President Grant, and to dic- tate to him aline of action more in accord with com- plete republican unity, by selecting for discussion only THR ORTHODOX ISSUES laid down by tho mentors of the party. Bat it is held that Mr. Schurz was really dving harm by carrying of the Germans and his hearers into an arena of thought and principles at varianco with the harmony of the party, and that to got rid of him now will save a great many German votes to tho republicans by placing him in coventry, as 1 wero, 80 a8 to DISABLE Wat cither from making any more steps during the cam- paign in anew direction or of being in any,way im- | portant under the next republican administration.

DEPERENCR TO THE PRESIDENT. The action of the committee 1s said to have been taken In deference to President Grant’s wishes, who does not expect to be abused and opposed with im- punity any mora by the republican magnates and his | friends, Senator Conkling, Secretary Chandler and others are resolved to ald as much as possible to this end. Tho republican party proper do not feel disposed to yleld everything to the liberal ropublicans any more than they will permit themselves to ignore them en- tirely. THR MOVING CAUSR. A lotter which has been received tn this city from Mr. Schurz, and which !3 now in the hands of an inti- mate repnblican friend of the President, 1s said to Nave been the moving cause of the oxisting strong dixaffeo- tion toward the German radical. It 1s likely the lead- ing Simon pure republicans will eschew Mr. Schurz hereaftor in tho high church servico of the party, and their press will commence to assail him.

Caleb Cushing, the United States Minister to Spain, now spending afew days ai bis home in this charming city, wag visited by a Henan correspondent this morning. In tho course of cunversation tho late rrost of Boss Tweed was inctdontally alluded to, and the fact ascertained that the apprehension of New York's famous swindler was not in any senso a matter of surprise to the American government. “I presume, from what! see in the newspapers,” said Mr, Cushing, ‘that there are many who donbdt that the great criminal has been arrested; but it ts an Absolute fact that he isin custody precisely as wi stated in the Henatn cable despatch the other day.” 1 observed Mr, Cashing that the doubting Thomases were few now; bat at the time the announce- ment was mado there was scarcely a porson to be found who took any stock in the story. “Yes, 1 know,” eatd Mr, Cushing, “they seemed to think that he was.all the while in Now York or near thero, It was known before 1 left Spain that ho wonld be thero shortly, and I was wot in the loast surprised when I heard of bis arrest. It was all arranged that he should be taken into custody immediately upon his arrival at Vigo, and furthermore it was planned that he should be surrendered to the American government.” “There ‘@ no extradition treaty between the United States and Spaim” I remarked. “That fs very true,’ replied Mr. Cushing, “but there is no doubt, though, but that Tweed will be brought to this country.

Recorder Hoffinan called th attention of the Grand | Jury to the occurronce, and his letter to that body is now on filo'in the oftice ol tho Court of General Ses sions, It resvited in (he Grand Jury finding an indict meet for kiduapping ngainst United States Marshal the defendants employed Clarence Seward as counsel, and expressed themselves ready for trial, Tho case, however, never could bo tried because the man kideapped could not be a wit- ness, and the element of the crime is against the will or consent, and, although there was every moral evi- dence that he was kiduapped, there was no proof of It accesstbie, Judge Welcome KR, Boebe appeared as for certam Spanish complainanis who were friends of Argueilas. ‘The case, how- ever, resulted in an examination of the jaw by Recorder Hotlman and tho district attorney, Tt was found that the United States Supreme Court in Dacember, 1852, on the occasion of the arrest ot Thomas Kano, an alieged fugitive from Groat Britato, had laid down the law that our country is open to all inen who wish to come to it, Mr, Eall read the au- thority on the subject, as quoted in the 14th of lloward, as {ollows:—''No question or demand ot a Ppatsport meots them at the border. He who flees from erimes committed tn other countries, like all Gthers, 1s udinitted, nor can the common thief be re- by any forcign Powor, To this effect we have Xe alto uppeared that the United Stat Supreme Court, tn the case of Holmes va, Jennison, though equaily divided in opinion on the question whether the Governor of Vermont as a Stato officer could surrender a Canadian fugitive, agreed that without treaty there was vo authority in the government to surrender him. It also appears from the same case, reported in 14th Peters, that the practice of the government trom the early days of ace conforms t@ the opinton that tho treaty g Power alone authority to decide how tar the rignt ofa foreign nation in respect to surrender of fugitives will be recognized and enforced when it demands tho surrender of any one charged With offence against it, Mr. Jeflerson, when Secretary of State, so \:rote in a letter to Mr. Genet, the Minister to France, The United States courts have thus over- ex | raled earlier decisions in the State of New York, that there Is any delivering up of fugitives on mero comity or by the law of vations without treaty, so far as this country is con- cerned, In ‘an early case in this State, in the matter of Clarke, reported im vth Wendell, our State Supreme Court had said:—"The matver of surrendering fugitives from justice bas usually been arranged by treaty, but where no treaty extsts the comity of nations requires that oflouders against the laws of one nation shail not find a sanctuary in avother.” But that law is nottne law of the United States Supreme Court, and even when a fugitive from France in 1847, named Metzger, came to this city, charged with forgeries, although there was a treaty with France providing for bis surrender, the State Do- partment found that they could not execute tne troaty Without an aiding act ot Congress, which was accord- ingly passed by reason of this decision, Revonrer—Then tt would scem to follow from this that withoat a treaty spain, if it delivers up Mr, Tweed, can get nothing at any time in return, « Mr. Hatt—No, unless there is another case of kid- nupping like Arguellas’, Revortkr—But if Spain chooses to surrender Mr. ‘Tweed couf ho ve retained hore? Mr. Hal I can only answer that by stating that In 1858, in isuffalo, there was a case of a prisoner forci- bly brought from Uanada to the line of this State, and thero delivered across the Suspension Bridge to a Now York constable, Tho prisoner's name was William G, Roo, and his case 1s reported in 4th Parker. A mo- tion was mado to discharge him or the ground of the kidnapping, bat the rt held that it would not in- quire bow the offender got within ita jurisdiction, but Deing present in court 1t would try him.
