Sir Charles Staveley, K. C. B—The Little War Now in Progress. SECT) nnn Lonpon, Oct. 21, 1876* The policy of England is now disclosed. The Maintenance of the integrity of Turkey has been abandoned. England has decided to leave the Otto- man Empire to its fate. She will hold Constantino- Ple to the last extremity, but the territory can be divided up among whatever nations are able to sub- due and hold it. If Russia now crosses into the Balkans the hour of the Turk in Europe has come. A tradition has always passed current among the faithful that the Mohammedans were finally to leave ‘the city on the Golden Horn. England’s plan now 4s to make Constantinople a second Gibraltar. CABINET ACTION. ‘The action of Her Majesty’s Cabinet at the meet- ing on Thursday night was decisive. It was resolved ‘that the invasion of Turkey by the Russians shall be the signal for the occupation of Constantinople by 30,000 men and the movement of the whole fleet of fronclads now in Besika Bay to the Golden Horn. ‘To provide for such an emergency transports will at once carry three corps of regulars to Malta, where enormous quantities of military stores and provi- sions have been accumulating for months past. EGYPT'S FUTURE. Should the non-belligerent Powers, such as Ger- many, Austria and France, oppose this course, Britain’s policy will be the occupation of Egypt. This course is rendered imperatively necessary by the vitai importance to Great Britain of the Suez Canal. Egypt would fall an easy prey, and some prominent Englishmen are sanguine enough to say that the Khedive would be very willing to hold his title under the suzerainty of the English throne, much the same as the royal princes of India. ‘THE GENERAL-1N-CHIEF. ‘The command of the British troops in the East Bas been assigned to Major General Sir Charles William Dunbar Staveley, K. C. B, an experienced Indian officer. General Staveley is the eld- est son of the late Lieutenant General William Btaveley, C. B., and was born in 1817. He was edu- wated at the Naval and Military Academy, Edin- burgh, and entered the army in 1835. He was made Colonel of the Forty-fourth foot in 1859, and was went out to China in 1862 as @ Brigadier General in wommand. For several years previous to 1870 he ‘was Commander of the Western District in India. le took a prominent part in the autumn manceuvres wf the British Army. Heisaman eminently quali- Hed to take command in s0 great an emergency as ‘that in which England will find herself if war comes. ENGLISH OFFICERS FOR TURKEY. Advices which I obtained to-night from a member ‘of the War Ofiice justify the statement that 150 half- pay officers of the British Army have applied to that Gepartment for permission to join the Turkish forces, so bitter is the hatred of Russia. Positions are said to be already offered to them. Ex-Colone, Baker is already in the service of the Sultan and will get allthe revenge against the foe of British India that lies in his power. HIDING HER HAND. In order to mask her policy for the moment, however, the Cabinet causes to be given out that a policy of abstention, for the present at least, has becn resolved upon. This policy will prove equally effective Lo England in the event of peace or war. With the key to her intended abandonment of Turkey to its fate we can readily see why England wants to gam time. Therefore, itis eminently clever In her statesmen to deciaro a policy of abstention. Sach a declaration removes from the consideration of the the slements ot Wednesday's panic, The crossing of Who Pruth by the Russians creates a crisis, but notaclimax! If she is content to rest satisfied with the Balkan provinces England may not fire a gun. The only discouraging feature of this view is that there is pothing this morning to relieve the uncertainty as to Bussia’s intentions. The man-of-war Shab, carrying twenty-six gans, and reported to be the swiftest vessel in the navy, has been ordered to reinforce tho British fleet at Besika Bay. OPINION OF THE PRESS, ‘The London journals editorially seem inclined to pbandon ail hope of the proservation of poace between Russia and Tarkey. The Berlin newspapers, on the contrary, express the opinion that all the powers of Europe, imeluding England, equally inter- ested in and responsiblo for Russi actions, in consequence of the failure o! their joint efforts at Constantinople, and that it 1s unjust to suspect Russia vf following the dictates of self-interest. The French papers agree that Franco will do her best to maintain pence, but will not take an activo" part should the trisis end in war. Inorder to ascertain the truth of the report current in Belgrade regarding the passage of the Pruth by the Russians, given in the Herann’s despatches yesterday, the French, Iralian and Aus- trian Consuls General visited Ursova; but they could learn nothing thero, and the probabilities, as pre- viously stated, are that the rumor was started for chances of peace or war one of are moral effect upon the Servian armics. THE CZAR’S FUTURE PoLicy. It is generally considered certain in Vienna that the Czar’bas been overborne in the Livadian councils by the predispositions of the Empress, tho Czarewitch and Princo Gortschakoff, all of whom favor the views of the national party. The Paris correspondent of the Times calls atten- tion to the fact that since Russia’s refusal of the long armistice has to with Turkey, no other Power having approached Turkey; that by strange accord entire Europe has abardoned the fiction by which discussion has been carried on in she been = {noo face tho name of Serviaand Montenegro, By ono of the most singular transformations in history Russia and Turkey are virtually ot war whon Europe is trembling 4+ the -, NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1876. --WITH SUPPLEMENT. prospect of such a conflict, It will be, therefore, no surprise if Turkey throws overboard the sc- cailed collective protection of the Powers and opens direct negotiations with Russia In the programme of Russia’s wishes (which was printed in the,Heratp despatches yesterday) thero are points te which Turkey will easily resign herself, but = which the Mediating would oppose. Turkey cannot abandon her magnificent Bulgarian Provinces without committing iicide. Tarkish statesmen believe she may, in dealing only with Russia, save Bulgaria by granting the liberty of the Bosphorus. It 1s true Turkey is bound by the treaties of 1856, to whieh the freedom the Bosphorus is bas = the Powers of contrary; _ Powerlessness of Europe is driving Turkey into nego- tiations with her bitterest enemy and the Porte may break the treaty in despair. Tho Post bas intormation that Rassia has ordered the mobilization of the corps @armée which has headquarters at Warsaw, GERMANY AND RUSSIA. The report of Germany’s objection of the proposed six months’ armistice is confirmed. There seems to ve no reason to doubt that Germany tnrows her influence with Russia order force the other Powers toagree upon a compromise which in to Russia can accept. In this there is a faint prospect of peace; but, nevertheless, the situation is most criti- cal. The report that 250,000 Russtan troops were ready to pass through Roumania is undoubtedly a gross exaggeration, but a Times correspondent has trustworthy information that the three army corps of Kiew, Kharkow and Odessa are under orders of mobi- lization, and that there are other signs of preparation im Southwestern Russia. But there are indications, on the other hand, that the eventuality, against which this preparation must be made, is not looked upon as immediately impending. Tho force which these three southwestern corps might pat in the field Is estimated at 100,000 men, A DOUBTFUL EXPLANATION. The Counell to be held by the Queen on Monday is summoned to meet at Balmoral, The further proro- gation of Parliament will then be ordered. At the closo of Inst session Parliament wes prorogued ‘until October 30, 1876. On Monday the prorogation will be extended probably until February next. WASTING HOURS TO GAIN MINUTES. A Berlin despatch says that the representatives of the mediating Powers are actively negotiating for an armistice until December 31. Its acceptance is consid- ered probable. The reported alliance or understanding between Ru: and Italy is denied from a trust- worthy quarter. It is declared at Belgrade that Rus- sia 1s about to present to the Porte a six weeks’ armistice and the English proposition as an ultimatum, THE LITTLE WAR. Serious fighting occurred near Saitscbar on Tuesday and Wednesday. The Turks repulsed the Servians and drove them to the plateau of Kopita. The Turks aro trying to force their way to Paratchin, whence their march to Belgrade would only be interrupted by the weak fortifications at Chapria, Considerable anxiety prevails at Belgrade as to the issue, especially as this movement seems to be made in concert with operations on the Drina’ Tho weather has suddenly changed from tropical heat to heavy rain, gales and cold, A later despatch from Belgrade states that tho Turks have captured Schliecovaz, and taken the heights of Gredetin. RUSSIA PROFESSING PEACE. General Ignatieff, the Russian Ambassador, pre- sented his credentials to the Sultan yesterday. It is believed that negotiations are about to reopen between the Porte and the Ambassadors of the Powers, on the basis of the English proposals, GREXCE PREPATING, The Greek Ministry have submitted to the Chamber of Deputies, sitting at Athens, bilis authorizing a gen- eral levy and a reorganization of tho forces, Addie tional taxation and the settlement of the old debt of Greece are also proposed.

[From the London Morning Post, Oct. 7.] Lord Russell, who was the first to support and to send a eubscription in aid of the Herzegovinan insar- rection, lent much moral force by the eountegance of his vencrable name to a movement which entirely originated in Russian intrigues, He has now Jiscov- ered tho true bearing of the question, and, heading the procession of penttents, has sent tho subjoined letter in reply to an invitation to attend the meeting in St James’ Hail, on Monday next, under the pres- idency of Mr, Stansfeld.

THE PRESS ON THE REDUCTION IN PRICES. [From the Evening Post of yesterday.) MARD FAN IN NEWSPAPERS. The leading newspapers of this city are graduaily fol- lowing the example of the Evening Post ana reducing their terms of gale «nd subscription so as to conform to the reduction of prices everywhere, Onthe Ist of July, 1875, the Evening Post reduced its rates from five cenisa copy to three cenis a copy. A few weeks ago tho World cut down its price from four cents to three, and to-day the HexaLp makes a similar change. Theso are among the unerring signa of the return of business to its normal conditions. High paper prices of all commodities must come down as we approach a gold standard, and with the resumption of specie payments in on solid ground—on the hard pan of commercial transactions. 1t will not be surprising if all the leading journals soon co what the Evening Post, the World and the Hmnatp have already done. They will not restore the cheapness of times before the war, The reason is obvious. Tho HEKALD says:— In 1861 the Hxratp had long been sold for two cents, and we regret that we cannot put tt back to the same Price, But we could not do that without also putung it back to the same quality, which is quite out of. the question. The energy and liberality of expenditure in news gathering which grew out of the war gave an impulse to newspaper enterprise which it stil! feels. Estimat- ing upon hard money prices thero is no doub: that it costs from one-third to one-half more to get out a first class powspaper now than it cost fifteen years ago. Such changes as those to which we refer would bo hazardous in such unsettled circumstances as those of the flush times of an inflated and greatly depreciated Paper currency, The disposition to make them now 18 asign of returning confidence in the steadiness and certainty of business transactions, * [From the Commercial Advertiser of yesterday. } The Heraup has reduced its price to three cents. The growing activity of business and the equalization of values, it tells its readers, is the cause of this move, which might have been expected from the intelligent With its re- duced price it will be more popular than ever. [From the Evening Mail of yesterday.) “Three cents for the Hxna.p” is an announcement that the people will bail with satisfaction. Now the Times and Tribune must follow sult. There is no more reason for paying war prices for newspapers than for groceries. Wages are down, rents are down, dry goods are cheaper than evor before, and it is high timo the newspapers that havo for five ycars been urging reduction In the cost of the necessaries of life should take a little of their own medicine, [From the Evening &xpress of yesterday.) The Naw York Henatp reduced the prico from four to three conts per copy this morning. [From the Brooklyn Argus of yesterday. } The New Yorx Herat to-day announces the re- duction of its price from four cents to three. Threo ofthe New York dailies—the Heraup, tho World and the Evening Post—have now come down to ‘hard par,” and only the Zimes and Tribune adhere to the war rates, The HkRaLpD improves the occasion to in- duige in some reminiscences of its own early days, pointing to the fact that the founder of that journal gave New York ite fret cheap newspaper, and claim- ing, curiously enough, that the Tribune, Times and World were ‘‘the progeny of the Herauv."’ This is news. If Greeley, Kaymond and Spaulding wore the “progeny” of the elder Bennett, they wero certainly very undutiful sons, for they banged away at nim with remarkable concert of purpose and invincible hostility, Nevertheless, Bennett did a good work when he started the Herat, and bis shrewdness and ability made the paper a success from the beginning. His successor shows thatthe paternal faculty ot reading the signs of tho times has been inherited ‘with the rest of the Property. THE CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION. Pattapeirnia, Oct. 20, 1876. ‘The ceremony of unveiling the Witherspoon monu- ment was performed this morning, on tho Centennial Grounds, by D. D. Wood, a grandson of Dr. Witherspoon.

Heis not held as a prisoner of the toderal government, but brought back a8 one who bas escaped from the custody of the State of New York. Strictly speaking, except as a matter of courtesy, he could not be held by ite authority, but having beon turned over to the Unitea States, ooly in courtesy, by the Spanish government, all that the former bad to do was to surrender him tothe Governor of New York through the Sherif No one accom- panies him, The order which has been given that no person whatever be allowed to communicate with him Was supposed to have emanated originally from the State Department, but it turns out that these di- Tections were given by Presideut Grant, in deference to the written request of Governor Tilden. As Tweed will be, 01 val, aprisoner of the State of New York, it was manifest that Mr. Tilden, as its Executive, | hada right to ask this. As soon as the Franklin bas been released from quarantine Tweed will be surren- dered, and the Navy Department will order the vessel either to the Brooklyn Navy Yard or to Norfolk. A distinguished naval officer, speaking of the prisoner, said he was verily a whito elephant, and should never have been taken on the Franklin. Secretary Robeson, also speaking of the informality of his arrest, and the peculiar relation of the govern- ment to him, sai ‘He 1s under oar control, but not subject to the authority of the United states, as ho has committed no crime against the federal laws, ex- cept, perhaps, a questionable one of having a passport with a fulso name. If I should tarn him over any- whero outside of the exclusive juriadiction of the United States I could not march him op tho street with a company of marines before I would have to sur- reader him on a writ of habeas corpus.”" There is thought to be a grim joke in the caso somewhere, either on the part of tho administra- tion or of GoVernor ‘Tilden, because the boast- ing predictions that Mr, Tweed would “peach’’ upon certain politicians in New York falls to the ground, so far as the United States government 1s cuncernod, ag he will go out of their custody at once on arrival pere, and Mr. Tilden is credited with having barred all this by his proper exercise of authority; but the more jocular say that it was only another way by which President Grant showed his sincerity in saying ‘‘Let no guilty man escapo;’’ and since the agenctes of the law in Now York could not capture Tweed, ho determined to prove that he was able and disposed to do it. An officer of the detective service of the United States, named Morgan, is represented to bave had Tweed under ob- servation for three months, in Cuba, and when the lat. ter sailed for Spain a cablegram was sent to that coun- try by the State Department to intercept him. tion of his term of ausonce is unaccounted for as to his whereabouts.
