. NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1876.—TRIPLE SHEET. CABLE NEWS From All Parts of the Old World. THE TURKISH DANGER. The Mohammedans Threaten to Unite Against Europe. GOSS'P ABOUT ARMISTICE. The Trembling Finances of |. the Continent. RUSSIA'S WARLIKE PREPARATIONS. Loxpow, Oct, 25, 1876. ‘The most interesting feature to which the student of the philosopny of history can give his attention is the surious religious antagonisms which threaten Ye convulse Europe, In Spain Catholicism is Wyipg to crush out Protestanism. In tho East, Mohammedanism in Arabia, Egypt, Per- sia, India and Turkey threatens to renew its crasade against the same Christianity and Gothic ¢ivitization which it obliterated in Spain so many eenturies ago. Eventsare ripe for a second Saladin or Abderrabman. Despised, accufsed of the Anglo-Saxon race, the Mehammedan, cali him Moor or Turk, turns upon bis oid and bitter enemy and defies all Europe. Alreaay are heard the rumblings of a storm which may repeat the history of the darkest Middle ‘Ages. Already are seen the elements of an ‘in- Vasion of Europe whieh may unite all inter- ests and cause European Christendom to’ pro- claim a crusade outrivaliing the days of Richard Coeur de Leon or Godfrey de Bouillon. From all the prov- inces in Turkey, in Asia or in Europe, como reports of growing excitement among the Mohammedans, People who should know whercof they speak declare that several millions of men in India are ready to march upon the West to protect their faith. Conventicles are held in mosques, and just such a ré- ligiou® foment ts being fostered as has ben stirred up in Southern Russia. Tho only satisfaction for such a gloomy prospect is to be found in the pride which we feel ior the nineteenth century—an age which gives us iron clad navies, A half dozen ships in the Darden- ellos and the Bosphorus enable the Europe of to-day to defy all Asia. The famine in India, which a thought- ful Providence sends at the right moment, will disarm the religious fanatics of the far East, and render im- possible un advance to the aid of Turkey in Kurope. THE FUTURE OF THR TURK. The outluok in Turkey is very gloomy. The Minis- try is divided against itself, and “the Sultan is too inexperienced to take the leadership of affairs, Thus the position is most favorable for Russi: diplomatic action. General Ignatieff, the Russian Ambassrdor at Constantinople, may carry everything before him, or, it he fails, may in- duce such an outbreak of Mohammedan feeiing as might justify almost any step on the part of Russia ‘Mr. Baring, the Secretary of the British Legation, is about to return from Phillippopolis, being con- vinced that the commission tor the punt Mshment of the perpetrators of the Bul- garian atrocities is a delusion and a mockery. The worst criminals aro regarded as humane, and moderate men aro in disgrace. The old panic isre newed, and a most trustworthy gentleman has trav- elled witb the utmost baste to Constantinople to inform Mr. Elliott, the British Ambassador, that the Turks threaten new massacres, and have even appointed a day for beginning the slaughte: TURKEY'S HOPES. Terkey has declared her readiness to accept the ix weeks’ armistice provided it is recommended by ‘all the Powers, It is reassuring to hear from Con- Mantinople that hopes of a more peaceful turn in affairs have considerably increased. This fecling is eaused by the unexpectedly conciliatory attitude of General Ignaticfl. There has not been any trace hitherto of Russia’s offering provocation with the view of bringing about a collision. On the coatrary, anysuch intention has been distinctly and @ecidedly disclaimed. While affairs thus look better in Constantinople, one can trace all around Turkey the iron ring prepared by Russia, which is closing and tightening rapidly and firmly. The iriendly relations between Bervia and Montenegro, which had become embroiled, bave been restored. | Prince Niketa bas promised Servia that he would in no case accept an armistice extending beyond the present year. On the Roumanian side ers have not gone go fairly. Prince John Ghika is going onaspecial mission to the European courts, ‘This seems (0 indicate an eurnest desire on the part of Koumania to avoid, if possible, making fommon cause with Russia, She probably wishes to ascertain whether she may reckon on the protection of the Treaty of Paris, by which ber neutrality was guarantged. If she finds she is left to herself she will come to an understanding with Russia. TUR LITTLE WAR. It was reported in Belgrade yosterday that the Turxs have taken Qjunis and Sait Nestor, after a determined fight, which lasted ten hours, More than half the entrenchments on the banks of the river, near Djunis, also fell into their bands. It this is true General Tchernayeff’s army will be in great danger. ‘The mobilization of troops in Roumania proceeds very slowly. At Jassy hardly a third of the inhabitants liable to military duty have appeared. The people seem to be utterly indifferent, ‘The samé despatch says tho resignation of the Hun- garian Premier, Tisza, is mentioned as imminent, in eonsequence of his dissent irom Count Andrassy’s Eastern policy. ENGLISIE PUBLIC FEELING bas been groused to an extent almost upparalicie¢—et Jeast sinco the early years of the present century—and poptinaesto run high. The atrocity excitement bas been succeeded by agraver public furore, Like Mac- beth, Jobn Bull has supped full with borrors and has bad a “turn’’ from which he wants fo recover at his ease, The Tory journals are, of course, highly pleased ‘at this symptoin and are shaking hands over the sub- sidence of the popular agitation. Meantime there can- not be the slightest doubt that unceasing preparations are being everywhere made for the eventuallty of war, and there isa large section of the public which bejieves in war ae acertainty. The English fleet will be main- tained in Mediterranean waters, and the Woolwich ‘Arsenal will turn Out many eighty-one ton guns during the winter; the four which will be mounted on the latest thing in iron-clads, the Inflexible, aro almost ready. Dipiomacy will be active, too, no doubt, and may or may not suctecd in dispersing the thunder clouds which hover so darkly over the East, Ono thing 18 certain, however—the maxim, ‘If you wish peace prepare for war’! will be carctuily observed by every ono concerned, Ono of the signs of the times is the cvident interest taken in mi connected with guonery.

AN OPEN POLICY, Russia has no longer any iliusions about the way her tendencies are viewed in England, nor docs she doubt that the first step which threatens British interests in ‘the East will be answered by another for their protec- tion.

Is it owing to the economy of Congress or is it a peculiarity of our navy that our ships are never where they are wanted? Now that the Franklin has gone to Ameriea with Tweed we have but one sbip of war on the whole European station—the Marion, Captain Bradford, carrying only eight guns, At the repeated request of our Mini: and our consuls and in view of the troublous times here and the possibility ot dis- asters to Americans the Marion *was ordered directly from Tampico to Constantinople, upon the understand- ing that she would remain tn the Bosphorus as a sta- tionnaire, This brought the American Legation somewhat on a par wich the other Powers, although mot of them now ha’ two vossela at their service The Marion came, but received on the way strict orders trom Admiral Worden to remain only week, and even before that time had expired Captain received telegrams to hurry on to Nice, Admiral wished to send off the Franklin and transfer his flag to this ship. NICK VERSUS CONSTANTINOPLE, We can well understand that Nice is a favorite sta- tion with our naval officers. It possesses a charming The a cards and the younger men can dance every night. But itis difficult to-understand why Nico should bo the necessary and exclusive station for the whole of the Mediterrancan squadron, especially when that squadron consists of only one ship. The excuse which is usually given for the constant presence of the ships at Nice is that it mw a central point in the Mediterranean, {rom which they may reach any place whero difficalty arises. This is very far from boing the trath, Malta would be mach more central than Nice, and even were it true the presence of a vessel in the cast of the Meaiterrancan is lar more important than inthe west. Inthe present state of affairs there is liable to be a calamity at Con- stantinople any day, and Americans may all be mas- sacred here long before the Admiral has succeeded in weighing his anchor at Nice and callicg in the officers from Monaco and Mentone. Mr. Maynard has, I believe, telegraphed for a ship of war, the presence of which is necessary as soon aS possible, and we hope that when our parsimonious government does send a ship here it will give strict orders for it to remain as long as the Minister thinks necessary, the good pleas- ure of the Admiral notwithstanding.

STATE The Situation as Regarded by Officers and Soldiers. A CAMPAIGN AGAINST NOTHING. Democratic Leaders To Be Arrested on the Eve of Election. PROGRESS OF THE CANVASS. Hampton Appealing to the Voters and Cham- berlain to the President. ——_ +--+ Coremata, S. C., Oct 24, 1874, An informal canvass of the troops, officers as well soldiers, that have recently arrived here, made to ascertain the political situation from their standpoint, @licits the information that first, they regard their position as excessively ludicrous; second, that they find peace and tle utmost good order, unendangered by the prevailing excitement, and third, tbat the effect of their presence here will hardly result in defeating Hampton, though it may in some degree hold the Tepublican negro vote togethe -FERLING AMONG THE TROOPS, The troops in the main concur in the general popu- lar sentiment that a State government which is unable to enforce the law and protect life and property from violence is no government at all, and their opinion is that such a government should be overthrown by the untrammelied verdict of the people expressed at the pallot box, No additional troops arrived to-day, nor have any left since those reported in my despatches; bat some companies will be as- signed to counties to-morrow, Asan instance of the good feeling entertained by the whites toward the soldiers they are usually turnisbed here with letters of introduction to the leading citizens in the localities to which they are assigned, are generally met at the depots by crowds and are cheered and welcomed with great enthusiasm. ‘To-day, while a Hampton meeting was being held at Branchville, on the South Carolina Railroad, two arriving com- panies of United States soldiers received three hearty cheers from the immense assemblage. After which the soldiors and citizens mixed together, and a general handshaking and confab took place. Tho soldiers are taken by surprise by these demonstrations, and find that instead of foes they encounter warm friends at every point. THE PROGRAMME OF ARRESTS. It has trauspifed to-day that the sweeping process of arrests, which has been suspended for the past few days, is te be suddenly resumed at a timo When it will culminate in great disaster to the democrats. The programme now is that at the moment when the exigencies of the campaign require tho services o¢ every leader and voter to inaugurate a general system of arrests throughout the State, to have the parties bailed to appear before the United States District Court.in this city on the 4th of November, so as to fatally embarass their return to vote or to use their influence at the election im their counties. This prouramme is further borne out by the fact that United States Marshal Wallace, whooe father is @ candidate for re-election from the Fourth Congressional district, now doubtful, is endeavoring to have that district heavily garrisonea with troops, although no disturbance has been reported trom that section. Wallace’s only chance of clection lies in the effect of the troops and tho intimidation which may be produced by wholesale arbitrary ar- rests. THE NEGRO MILITIA. Information has boen received here from Timmons- ville, Darlington county, whero the blacks largely pre- dominate, that there is a negro militia company there, armed with ninety breecbloading rifles, who ani regularly with loaded guns, three cases of ammunition having been recently issued to them, The militia law requires the deposit of the arms in armories, but the members of this company, ™m common with the other militia, carry their guns to their cabins, Last Saturday tho company paraded tnrough the streets under arms, and attcred violent threats against whito and colored democrats, The democrats, having disbanded their rifle clubs, could make no organized resistance to an attack which the Tecent proclamations, by emboldening the more turbu- lent spirits among the blacks, have a direct tendency to produce, CHAMBERLAIN INVISIBLE. Governor Chamberlain was inexorably invisible to visitors, He was locked up all day writing. Asthe city and State have been in profound peace for the past few days the important business which so en- gaged His Excellency can only be surmised, He was doubtless engaged in the preparation of some ponder. ous political pamphlet with which to bolster ap his cause, to be followe by some crushing réjoinder from good, reliable republican sources. THE CAXVASS 1s being conducted by the rival candidates in a totally different manner. General Mampton has been in Columbia but a portion of one day since my arrival. He visits county after county im succession, joined at each court house by bands cf music and thousands of men on horseback, but without rifles, as has been charged, ‘His canvass 16 one of pomp and display. Hundreds of ladies attend, He speaks amid cheers and enthusiasm and invites all citizens of tho State'to hear him and support him, promising protection to all, regardiess of party or race. His fine physique and manly bearing and calm, clear, forcible manuer of speech have great effect en the multitude wherever he goes, CHAMBERLAIN’S COURSE, Chamberlain has not appeared in public since his nomination, The lesser lights of the party ent over the State to address the faithiul while the leader sits in his office at the State House, wielding his pen or flashing despatches acro:s the wires. His forte lies in diplomacy. Hampton appeals to the people, Chamber- loin to the President. Hampton turns his ear tothe counties, Chamberlain to the White House, At every Hampton meeting the national flag is borne in the pro- cession and adorps the stand, the streets and the head. gear of men and horses. t ARREST OF A FARMER. C. E. R. Drayton, formerly of Charleston, bat now a farmer at Aiken, was arrested by a Deputy United States marshal there to-day on the general charge of mtimidation of colored voters, He ts now in jail with A. P. Butler and J. 8, Dunbar, who also prisoners; and as United States Commissioner Boozer ts not there they wil bave to remain in conlinement to suit that gentieman’s convenience. Three companies of United States soldiers have arrived at Aiken. XRGKO VIOLENCE. At Allendale, in Barnwell county, there was another exhibition of negro violence, which at one time threatened to result in bloodshed, and probably would have done so but forthe timely interterenc® of an officer of the United States army. A republican meet- ing was being held there, addressxd by several speakers of local prominence, The crowd was very large and the effects of bad whiskey were visible. About half-past one o'clock a negro, who had gotten very drank, became also very disorderly, and upon complaint, the town constable at- tempted to arresthim. The negro resisted, but not- withstanding this the official succeeded in placing him 1m jail, having been struck and severely wounded by a mob who attesppted to reseue tho prisoner. Soon afterward the Mob became very turbulent, and made an ASSAULT UPON THM JAIL The lock was broken of, and the mob be- gan firing upon a number of citizens who were supporting the town authorities, Some fourteen shots wero fired, when Lieutenant McLaugh. lin, of the Eighteenth infantry, appeared upon the geene, Woaring bis uniform, and commanded the peace. Tho effect Was magical. The negro mob de- sisted and fled back. A gaard of United Statos sol- diers was then placed at the jail, where they remained until the riotous blacks had dispersed. Luckily all the whites in town were absent ata Hampton moeting in another part of the county, or a collision might have resulted, THE INDICTED PUGILISTS. TRIAL OF THE MEN CHARGED WITH THE MUR- DER OF WALKER IN A PRIZE RING POST- PONED—INTERVIEWS WITH THE PRISONERS IN SALEM JAIL—COMPLAINTS OF NEW JERSEY IGNORANCE AND PREJUDICE. Sarem, N. J., Oct. 24, 1876, This morning the County Court House bell rang loudly, its chimes echoing down the maig street of Salem, and telling all the inbabitants as well as the strangers in the old town that court was opened and the judges were on the bench. Then the farmers and farmers’ boys and helpers and freeholders, many of them im brown jeans, crowded into court for the purpose of having a look, as they thought, at the five prize fighters, who were to be placed on trial for their lives. For a fow moments the court room was densely packed, every seat being occupied, while a thickly Jammed mob stood in the vestibule, hallways and on the stairs leading to the Grand Jury room. The Sheriff, a jolly looking little Jerseyman, was in court promptly, and the clerk who looked like an old- fashioned school master, began calling the panel, The chief judge, Alfred Reed, took bis seat, and he seemed quite young between his two more venerable associ- ates, Judges Ware and Sammerill, When Court was called it was found that the prison- oners Were not in Court, and there was astir of disap- pointment in the audience, They ain’t goin’ to try ne “bac Jetting the fighters hear the evidence are they ‘TRIAL DEFERRED, was whispered. ‘The Chief Justice, with a look around the room, asked if the State had uny business, and the prose- cuting attorney, Albert Hope, stood up, with an ex- Pression on his face which’ indicated that a screw ‘was loot ome where. that the State was pot ready, and asked th of the prize fighte indicted for murder should be set down for Tuesda; tober 31. this announcement, and those nearest the'door began to crowd out into the street to talk horse and turnips. Some of the crowd hinted that the prosecuting attor- ney was rather irightened at the array of counsel against him, including Messra Scovil, Valentine, eory Hope, John H. Fors and M. LL. Hewitt, Ochers stated that the. Attorney General ‘ot New Jersey, signilied his determination pri- vately to Albert Hope, his deputy, that he would con- duct the prosecution in these murder cases himseif, with the hope of a conviction of allthe prisoners; Dut as he was not ready himself the prosecution de- manded a postponement. The people who came from all these towns and vil- Jages with the unspeakable names were more than disappointed, they were disgusted at having to go home, and without even an anecdote to enliven the domestic freside before election. ‘The Court at once granted application, and the court room was emptied in a few moments, the Grand Jury being discharged, Now came the dafliculty in regard to seeing the pris- oners. The Sherif was willing that I should see them, but the Prosecuting Attorney was not, and the aia of the Judge was invoked to prevent my visit. I called at the jail, to which is attached an office in which Sheriff Hines receives visitors. I there saw a young lady, a daughter of the Sheriff, who declared that it would not be possible fcr me to visit tho prisoners un- less her papa gave his permission. Finally the Prose- cuting Attorney, with sage deliberation, alter an ex- amination of the statutes of New Jersey to see i! there was any law ag: jt a HERALD reporter being allowed to talk with the disciples of a twenty-four foot ring, gave the decisive permission, and | passed in through {he gate, at which was seated a very good-natured turnkey, wearing a navy blue flannel shirt, o fine beard, and behind whom was placed a shotgun asa persuader. “Weeden,” said 1, “@0 you wish to say anything about this matter, or do you feel that you should say anything ?”” Wnepux—No, sir; [don’t wish to say anything at all. I don’t seo whatI can say. I never wished to in- jure any one. MERRY FIDDLER NEARY, I walked tq Fiddler Neary’s cell, a few feet distant, Fiddler camé to the grated cell door in a merry mood. I took him to be an Irish Uockney by his speech, and he seems a good natured fellow, “Well, Fiddler, how do you feel ?”” I asked. , I feel well enough in ’ealta, but it’s hawtally confined in this ’ere place.” “Did you do anything at the fight but act as a spec- tator?’’ I asked. “Not a blessed think wotever.

ANTICIPATING TWEED. chestra of the spring Dick,’ THE CORRESPONDENCE WITH SPAIN IN REGARD TO THE BOSS’ EXTRADITION TO BE PUB- LISHED—NO POLITICAL IMPORTANCE Af- TACHED TO HIS COMING. WasuinGrox, Oct, 24, 1876. The expected arrival of Tweed bas no importance here except the forthcoming publication of the corre. spondence which has been had with and by the United States government in regard to the delivery of the prisoner. When he shall have come within the Jurisdiction of the State ot New York and the proper judicial control of her officials the President of the United States has determined, in response to urgent requests made for this correspondence, to nave it made public as soon as Secretary Fish arrives in Washing- ton, This was expected to-day, but not having occurred it will be deferred until his coming. THE CORRESPONDENCE. The President says that the communications do not amount to anything, but popular anxiety is go great and exacting that he thinks it best to give everything from the record which can go to make up the history of the case as far asthe United BSiates government is concerned. No political importance is supposed to be attached to the case. ‘THM VEIL OF SECRECY. The Secretary of the Navy, upon boing asked why the United States government surrounded the notori- ous prisener with a veil of secrecy and exclusion, re- sponded that the fencing in of Tweed originated from the request of the Governor of the State ot New York, whose official views the United States government was bound to respect, and the official thought there was eminent propriety in conforming with them. No one in Wasbington seems te care about Tweed, or what be may or can do when be arrives in New Yorn. FALSE REPORT OF THE ARRIVAL OF THE FRANKLIN OFF SANDY HOOK—CONSEQUENT EXCITEMENT IN THE CITY. Considerable stir was created yesterday by th nouncement on the bulletins of the morning papers that a man-of-war was telegraphed off Sandy Hook, which was supposed to be the United States steamer Franklio, with William M.

HOAR AND BUTLER. THE RIVAL REPUBLICAN CONGRESSIONAL CAN- DIDATES IN THE MASSACHUSETTS SEVENTH DISTRICT ADDRESS THE VOTERS—-SHARP THRUSTS AND HEAVY BLOWS FROM EACH BIDE. . Lawrence, Mass,, Oct. 24, 1876, Judge Hoar inaugurated his campaign against Gen- eral Butler this evening. The hall was filled to over. flowing, and after being introduced the Judge opencd with the consideration of the importance of retaining tho republican party in power. It was important to all classes. Each man’s voto was something to determine the character of the institutions under- which he and his children were to live, and it was his duty to discuss the policy and purpose of the govern. ment The speaker discussed at length as the three leading issues—equality, resumption of specie pay- ment and civil service reform. The democrats pre- tended to favor resumption, but it was false. Tho story of Tilden was that of the lead pencil, HARD AT ONE END AND SOVT AT THE OTHER. ‘The democrats only accepted the principles which republicans held years ago. The solid South was a dangeroas ization within the democratic party on which the party bases iis hopes of succes: This was a depravea spectacle, The repubiican party stood squarely on specie resump- tion, to which the faith and honor of the nation were pledged. The republican party should be kept in power to complete civil service reform. He advocated the election of the Massachu- setts republican candidates, Mr. Adams was respect. able, but too old—nearly seventy—{hisses}—an honest man, but IN BAD COMPANY. His nomination was as transparent as Greeley’s, People sce through it as easily as they could through the Seventh district nomination, (Long continued ap. Plause, hisses agd hootings.) ° After a second attempt to proceed ho at on and discussed the nomination as reprosenting the policy and purpose of the party; if they were not represent- ative men then the people were justitied in voiting. The speaker all his Iife was a strong party man. Butler occupies the same position regarding resumpti as does the South to the constitutional arm: ts, He acquieses in it. Butier scoffs at civil service reform, and pays tor naturayizing men in Lowell who will vote for Tilden. He pitcned toto Wendell Phillips, who is supporting candidates against our Stato ticket.
