" CABLE NEW From All Parts of the Old World. THE EASTERN INCUBUS. Explanations Decidedly in Order from an Emperor and a Premier. OMPLICATING THE COMPLICATIONS. Russia Massing Troops in Poland. Lonxvon, Nov. 15, 1876, gain the clouds seem gathering over Turkey the very moment when a settlement seemed Within the grasp of the Porte. On this occasion, it worthy of mention, the Sultan’s government is not responsible. This makes the situation all the more interesting. The injudicious stump Speech of Lord Beaconsfield, at the end of & long dinner with the Lord Mayor, pro- voked the Ozar to make the by no meang palm retort which the cable has already ven you. A special from the HumaLo's correspon- lent in Vienne declares that since the text of the Emperor's address has reached the Austrian capital hepe tor the meeting of a conference commission has deen abandoned among official circles, In the same way that the Golos was made to apologize to Lord Beaconsfield, it may now be in order tor my Lord to explain “the little }pleasantries”’ of bis re- marks, From a journalist's point of view, the situa- tion ts particalarly bumorous, -howover grave it may eventually prove to be, Almost ludicrous, tan’t it, that Lord Beaconsfield could by any accident—surrounded by bis familiars and a jolly Lora Mayor, neither a Russian tron-olad in sight of a single English colonial possession nora secret society spy in the hall—so far Jose hia temper as to frame an attack upon Russia for the sake of something to enliven the occasion? He whould bave remembered the result of the attack bo ade upon Prince Bismarck at a Lord Mayor's table, ind the abject apology which he a’ wendered to that Minister for his indisereet anguage. Then, too, it is amusing to realilize thata gentleman, whose hatred of the newspaper press is become chronic, should utter the most incendiary ex- Prersions solely for the use of the young reporters who Were present at a quiet wing of the table, They consti- tuted the immediate audience to which he addressed bis Russian sentiments, and they received them with Ais compliments, no doubt. RUSSIA NOT INDIFFERENT. An impression exists in some circles that Russia wil) ‘vot continue her warlike preparations, now that a good ppportanity is offered her to get out of the trouble sonorably and with a show of great influence in bring- Ing about aconference. A message just at hand from Whe Huratp’s correspondent at the Russian capital, asrerts that the utmost activity prevails and that says that two divisions of the Imperial guard, com- posed of brigades of cavalry, artillery and infantry, will leave St Petersburg for Poland few days, Transportation bas been secured for troops and supplies. This large movement of troops hints at arupture of the close relationship existing hetween Whe three emperors. It is also believed to be a pro, saution against a S'avonic movement in Poland, insti. gated by Hungary, in order to check tho development of Russian power in the Danubian provinces. ALARM IN BERLIX, ‘The morning journals all take much the same view of the Premier’s indiscretion. @he Standard, of course, sees no guile in the Prime Minister, but as a matter of grave news it prints ‘2 & prominent way a despatch irom its Berlin correspondent declaring that the tone of the Qzar’s speech has produced a most alarming impres- tion in political circles in the German eapital. Em- yercr William wields the traditional ‘balance of power’ in the Eastern situation, but, ws the readers of tho Heratp already know, he is 12 not going to have an opportunity to operate Im the direction of Poland. Hereafter the English people must insist upon Premiers accepting invita- ons to Mansion House dinners, for, while inaugurat- \ng a Lord Mayor, he might utter a declaration of war against all Europe. GREECR’S LITTLE GAME M. Comoundouros, the President of the Greek Coun- cil of Ministers, speaking in the Chamber at Athens, said the policy of Greece was ono of armed neutrality. THR KIEDIVE WILL XOT BROOK DICTATION, The Egyptian Minister of Finance endeavored wo original plot against the Khedive by representing to the people that the Khedive, by accepting the reforms advocated by Mr. Goschen, was selling the tountry to the Christians He was exiled to Dongola ind died while being escorted thither, weribes his death to excessive drinking.

On October 9a meeting of capitalists was held to support the railway measure, and on the following day a commission was officially appointed to study the question and report accordiagiy. Colonel Francisco Sanchez died at Quozaltenango October & COSTA RICA. PROSPECTIVE FAILURE OF A RAILROAD COMPANY. No journals are at hand, but a private roport con- tains complaints of mismanagement of the Costa Rica Railroad. The Minister of Public Works is charged with unwise attempts to curtail expenses, and allowing. the railroad to fall into incompetent hands by remov- ing the engineers and othor foreigners employed on the line. Payments on the Simon division are in ar- rears, and the work must cometo 4 standstill, owing to the small appropriation for the maintevance of the twenty-nine miles of road in that division. A final suspension of the railroad will be the inevitaple result, and the failure of General Guardea’s undertaking is mach to be deplored. COLOMBIA. ALL QUIET IN THR COUNTRY. ‘The steamer Coptapo, from the southern ports, ar- rived at Pavama on October 31, with the latest nows from Cauca. No important battle had been fought sineo the last despatehes. Sefior Rufael Nisio, secretary ofthe army and navy, bhd arrived at Cartago. Presi- dent Parra was also expected at that place, but was first to proceed to Honda to inspect the immediate neighborhood of the scat of war. The rebellion in Cauca is dying out, a warlike spirit being noticeable only on the frontier of Antioquia. In the district of San J in the north of Cauca, the rebels around Buenaventara were totally routed and dispersed, Antioquia, surrounded and without supplies, must soon yield to the Union army.

BARBADOS. GOVERNOB HENNESSY GOING AWAY IN GOOD TIME. The feeling against the Governor, Mr. Pope Hen- bessy, is becoming extremely intense, as the policy of this gentleman is evidently to insult the int of the country and rouse the worst passions ol the agricultaral laborers against their employers, ST. THOMAS. STEAMSHIP DISASTER. During the night of September 12, when the burri- cane broke over this island, causing great loss of life and damage to shipping, Mr. Friend, an engiseer, with ope or two assistants, at the risk of their lives, wont jon board the St. Thomas floating dock in the harbor— which was then filled with shipping—and sunk the dock as deep as possible, so as to alford greator rosist- ance to vessels which might be driven againat it during the storm.

Y,, Nov. 12, 1876, In the case of Francis Grappotte, on trial for the murder of Simon Hoover on March 4 last, Judge Noxon’s address to the jury yesterday occupied one hour and a half, and the case was given to the jury at six P.

Warertows, N. ¥., Nov. 12, 1876, An attempt was made last night to wreck the pas- senger train which 1s due here at ten o’clock on the Utica and Biack River Railroad, twenty miles south of this city. Two short rails of iron and several ties were stood on end in a trestle overa swampy place, seven foot deep. The locomotive struck the obstruction, bending it down, and did not leave the track. A simi- Jar attempt to wreck a train was made on the Rome, Watertown and Ogdensburg Railway Jast Thursday, and in both eases a note signed ‘Relormers” was found near the place, saying the attempt was made on account of reductions in wages, and they wanted re- form.

He was the second son of Mr. Dugaid Stuart, of Ballachulisn, county of Argyle, and wayborn in the year 1793 He was edu- cated at the High School and University of Edinburgh, and afterward studied for the English Bar. In 1819, in his twenty-fourth year, he was called tothe Barat Lincoln's [nn, and while waiting for brief@ he began reporting, in conjunction with M& Simons, in the Court ot Viee Chancellor Sir John Leach. Fivo. years’ reports, the fruit of this arrangement, were compressed inte two volumes, which are still regarded as models of conciseness as woll as of good law. Among his compeers at the Bar and in his own special department were many men of note, such as Lords Cottenham, St. Leonaras and Westbury, Lord Justice Kaignt-Bruce and sir Joho Rolt; yet among them all he steadily held bis way, and ‘was not unequally matched with any of them: ‘The silk gown was conferred upon him 10 1839, and a year afterward he became one of the benchers of Lin- coln’s Inn, In 1846 Mr. Gladstone, who adhered to Peel in tho coro law struggle, felt bound to resign the representation of Newark, and Stdart, who wae a con- servative, became his successor.

Puttapeceuta, Nov. 11, 1876. Tthas boen said agsin and again within the last fow months that Philadelphia baving once emerged from its grub like existence and donned the beautiful ature of the butterfly, would never again recede into its origi- nal condition. This may undoubtedly be the case; but, candidly confessed, appearances to-night are against it, Tho contrast between yesterday and to-day has been so great that it looks uncommonly as though tho City of Brotherly Love were about to sink back into her pre-Adamite—l beg pardon, pre-Exposi- tion—state, The bunting which had been a0 liberally displayed is fast disappearing; the hotels, especially near the Exhibition grounds, ai fast putting on mourning; the astrect cars are well nigh ompty, and, indeed, on tho streets goner- ally the lodging-bunting, visiting throng bas vanisbed, and the owners of extemporized boarding ho are lamenting that tno good time is at an end, Then again, tho rapid flight of the foreigners is fast remov- ing the cosiuopolitan tints off the cauvas, There area few left even of those who are detained here by Exbi- bition matters, and even these will soon be scon among us no more forever, The ladies are sighing over the dull winter in store for them, and the newsvenders, bending their beads to tat nd the disappearance of thestranger elercent, aro actually reducing the price of the Hunacp to four cents a copy. WITHIN THE GATES. At the Exhibition, too, all is changed, It was thought that the announcement that people could enter the fair even after the oficial close by payment of tho magic filty cents would have attracted crowds of people who had remained athome to vote. If so they wiil have to hurry. But there were no indicatious to-day of any great concourse. Some 16,000 persons paid the admission fee, most of them evidently to have a quiet look at the pictures before the close, This was feasible ip most of the galleries, but not so for the British. Mr. J. M. Jopling, the artist, had come over to superintend the packing up of the English works of art, most ot which, as in the case of the New York exhibition, have been loaned by the owners, and he set to work fencing off the depart- men and getting the pictures down at ouce. In the other sections, too, there was a remarkable lack of the stout lady poking her umbrelia into the picture element, There were but a lew of those refreshing inquiries, “Which picture is worth the most in this room?” or, “How much does this painting weigh?’ or, “The Milton snield, eh! Was that the one that he really used?’? ‘Then, again, | only noticod the guards pick up acouple of baudkercbiefs, and theso actually in such good condition that those who bad dropped them were not ashamed to own them—a fact of but rare occurrence since the show was opened. But it was in the Main Buliding that the greatest transformation had taken place. Scaffuiding and ropes sbut off each department, and it required a clever gymnast to 0’e: leap the barriers. THY LUNCH BATERS. The most remarkable thing was the absence of the luncbera, Where were the hungry thousands who, appalled by the poor fare amd tbe bigh prices of most of the Extibition restaurants, had in days and weeks now, alas! gone by, carried their frugal repast in with them, and, ensconcing themselves ut the music plat- form, on the steps of exhibitors’ stands, in the Roose. velt or, lery or im the Education Department made themselves delightiully at home distributing the Temnants of their meal and the enveloping papers in charming profusion about the Main Build- ing’ Could these have vanished in so short a space of time? Impossible. Approaching ono of the guards I soon found out the reason. Tho lunch baskets have tor some time past beon rigorously ex- eluded from Judges’ Hall, ‘‘no lunching allowed’? being one of the most conspicuous emblems in tha in- terior of that pavilion, and now it has been determined that the lanchers shail be finally and forever shut out from tho Main Building. There was a posse of guaras and Custom House officials at all the doors to see this Tule entorced, THE STAMP HUNTERS. Then, again, the autograph and foreign postagestamp hunters, where were they You could actually cun- Verse with one of the foreign Commissioners tor filteen minutes without bis being interrupted by a young gentieman orlady with a gilt edged book, and peroaps a letter of introduction, all for the purpose of obtain- tng the distinguished foreiguer’s signature, THE GLORY DEPARTED, 1t was positively depressing to find all the wonted signs ot Exhibition life abseut, but approaching the eastern end I found some slight consolation; thero was something like the usual jangle of three or four pianos aud organs all playing simuitaneously different tunes, But here, again, there was disappointment in store, for vainly did one listen for the conjunctive sounds of the chimes, the tog horn and the calliope. Only those who have been at the Exbivition since the conimencement can appreciate the sweet harmooy produced by the above combination, and it was really too cruel to be deprived of this last solace. Rushing out into the grounds there was the same ab- sence of the old life. The Oriental bazaars aid not find sv many customers as of yore tor their precious w: which had traversed the thousands of mi at separate Bicecker strect from Fairmount Park.

He had contracted at the end of 1875 to b pavilion “fixed up” and made ready for the pubitc for $11,000, but when reached Philadelphia he had to spend another thereon; besides this he paid $6,000 concession to tho 150 days, and spent at Paris and at Philadelphia some $20,000 im purchasing the matériel.

Pauapxvpata, Nov. 12, 1876, According to announcemont the Exhibition grounds were thrown open to the public tc-day,.and w visited by immense crowds of people. The turnstiles were closed, ingress and egress being had only by the wagon gates, through which pedestrians only '@ ad- mitted. The transportation facilities for reaching the site from the city being limited to those of the horse passenger railways all the cars of these lines going west wore uncomfortably flied during the greater of the day, while thousands reached the grounds on foot, The order for closing the buildings to the public was rigidly enforced as to the Exlibition bulidiugs proper, and noone except the guards and janitors on duty were permitted to enter; but at several of the principal restaurants customers were admitted as on week provided. No record of obtainable, but a rough wtendance places the aggregaie at disorder was reported during the THE CENTENNIAL COMMISSION, The Cnited Ceatenaial Commission will probably adjourn on Tuesday atternoon for a period of severa! months, and in the meantime the revision of accounts and the ‘inal reports of the body will be ma- tured by the committees of the commission. The ordinary details ot business will be under the super vision of the Executive Commities.
