TELEGRAPHIC NEWS|" From All Parts of the Old World. THE PORTE’S UNREST Gladstone Arraigns Disraeli’s East- em Policy. ANOTHER TURKISH PLOT Bold Attempt to Depose the Reign- ing Sultan. THE COMING CONFERENCE, The French Ministerial Difficulty No Nearer Solution. MORE SOUTH AMERICAN TROUBLES, [Bx CABLE TO THE HERALD.) Lonpox, Dec. 9, 1876. The nows this morning is of very littlo interest, The little ripple of excitement created by the an- pouncement of the reopening of the extradition ne- yotlations has subsided, and from the East there is nothing exciting or of more than secondary importance, except another conspiracy to depose the Sultan, which has now becomo so common that it attracts little attention. People have now settled down to tho belief that nothing of mo- ment will bo done till tho meeting of the Conference, and are awaiting that cvent with avery faint hope that it may be able to avert the dread calamity of a general European war. ENGLAND’S EASTERN POLICY. Mr. Gladstone and his friends are determined to push their opposition to tho Eastern policy of the Ministry to the farthest possible limit, and if England does get involved in war with Russia it will certamly not be the fault of some of the best minds in the tountry. The feeling of the country {being tested by azerics of anti-Turkish meetings, and it 1s prob- able that when Parliament opens a vigorous onslaught mill be mado on Lord Beaconsfield by tho liberal leaders. A large meeting was held at St. Jamos’ Hall, yesterday, styling itself a “Nationa! Con‘erenco on the Eastern Question.” The Duke of Westminster presided. The object is to oppose the British governmont’s pro-Turkish policy. Letters werorcad from the Bishop of Man- thester, the Marquis of Bath, the Duke of Argyle and the Right Hon. Robert Lowe. Among tho speakers wero Mr, Gladstone, the Bishop of Oxford, Anthouy Tollope, Sir George Campbell and Mr, Henry Richards hembors of Parliamont, GLADSTONE ARRAIGNS DISRAKLI. In tho course of Mr. Gladstono’s remarks he charged. Lord Beaconsfield with being personally responsible Jor the government’s position. He declared Ottoman bupremacy should be abolished throughout the insur- gent provinces. Foreign intervention he regarded as Indispensable. He eulogized the Czar and the Russian People, although he admitted that the bureaucracy and military party ought to be regarded with suspi- tion. England, in accordance with her auty and traditions, ought to loyally participate in the hbora- tion of the East, CONSPIRACY TO DEPOSE THE SULTAN. According to a special despatch from Constantinople | consp racy to depose the present Sultan was discoy- ered on Tuesday night. The conspirators, six of whom wero found in disguise in tho palace itself and arrested, had planned to carry off the ex-Sultan Murad ina steamer, which they had already engaged, to Athens. When there they intended to proclaim that Murad had Tecoverod his reasen, and the Sultan Hamid was con- Sequently a usurper, Tho prisoners are of various na- tionalities, One is a Greek and 1s brother to the Chief Dragoman of one of the principal foreign consulates, RUSSIA AND THE CONFERENCE, The Rassian goverament seems to be anxious to avoid uselesa delays in regard to tho Conference. A despatch from St. Potersburg says that in order to prevent the diMeculties and delays which would result from referring questions to St. Petersburg, Russia has given General Ignatieff, the Russian Ambassador, large discretion at the Conference. HOPES OF A PRACEFUL SETTLEMENT. A Constantinople despatch says the Turks will pro- pose at the Conference that the reforms be guaranteed by a mixed commission. It is generally thought in Constantinople that the Conference will result in peace. A despatch from Pesth says authentic and positive mformation has been received showing that the situation is moro promising. A Vievna telegram reports that various Bulgarian Beeret sorictics have met at Bucharest and drawn up a hist of demands to be addressed to the Conference. It is stated that theso demands are moderate, as the ex- treme party among the Bulgarians dislike the nea of Deing obliged to resort to the patronage of Russia, WAR PREPARATIONS. Roumania contiunes to prepare for the coming war, though still making profession of the most pacific in- tentious toward Turkey. According to a aespatch from Bucharest the Chamber of Deputics yesterday voted $200,000 for the maintenance of the concentrated Roumanian army until the end of this year, A despatch from Riga says that goods trafic onthe Dunaburg and Wilna railway ts suspended, A Vienna despatch says that an interview will take place on the borders of Roumania, between Prince Charles and the Czarewitch, Tho pek governmert bas declined the services of many Greek residents of Russia, who have offered through consuls to return to Greece in order to fight against the Turks. The Turk- {eh commanders of the Danube fortresses have been ordered to lay in eight months’ provisions. Tho tn- Dabitants of Rutschuk have been called upon tore ceive 30,000 Asiatic troops. TNX GREEKS WON'T PAY For wan, Whatever the people of Grecco may desire, it is clear that the majority in the Chamber of Deputies are not much inclined for a patriotic war against the Turke—at least except on the condition that some other nation will advance tne funds. A despatch from Athens says that a new Ministry has been formed in consequence of the defeat by the Chamber of Deputies of the proposed increase of taxes for war purposes, The new government 18 composed as follows:—M. Doligeorgis, Minister of Foreign Affairs and President of the Council; M. Delyannis, Minister of the Interior; M. Levidis, Minister of Finance; M. Petmeza, Minister of War; M, Voulpioti, Minister of Justice; M. Canacari, Minister of Public Worship, and M. Lochios, Minister of Marine, ITALY WARNED BY BISMAKCK. It is thought in well imiormed circles here that tne gilusion in‘a recent specch of I’'rince Bismarck to “thon whose acts might menace Austria” is regarded at Rome as addressed directly to Italy. THE PRENCH MONISTRRAL DIFFICULTY. ‘The Cabinet crisis in France still continues, but does Dot cause quite so much uneasiness as during the first few days, The alarmists no longer hint that MacMabon \s preparing a coup d'état or that the reds are mut- Jering of barricades, and some people aro venturing to bope that the days of barricades and émeutes and coups d'état are gone by In France, ‘The Left may be rather imprudent and hasty in urging avery reasonabte de- mand, but the most hot-headed among them have not ret breathed a word of any but strictly pariiamentary remedies. M. Dulaure has evidently beeome very phnoxious to a majority of the republican Deputios, A fespatch from Paris says that the organs of the Loft state that a majority of that party would oppose re- mumption of office by the Jate Ministry. The Repub- lique Frangaise (Gambetta’s organ) says the only alter- aatives are the dissolution of the Chamber of Dep- aties or the formation of a Cabinet composed solely of wembers of the Lolt, No other expedient is possible, bial Tepublicans are resolved to accept no compro NO HOPE OF AGREEMENT. The presidents of the various groups of tho Left, in their conference with the Ministers, proposed a pro- gramme which neither President MacMahon nor the Ministers appear as yet to be able to accept, The Presidents of the Left have made a report on their in- terview to their respective groups, and have declared w the Cabinet no longer exists. The questions upon whieh they differed trom MacMahon and the Ministers probably concerns the appointment of public func- Monaries and the limitation of the President's power to interfere therein. The crisis is kept open by this matter, and not by the questions on which the Cabinet suffered dofeat in the Chamber of Deputies, LEON BAY’S FINANCIAL STATEMENT, In the Chamber of Deputies yesterday afternoon, M. Leon Say, Minister of Finance, made a financial state- ment, in the course of which he demonstrated the ab- soiute impossibihty of reducing the taxes, He stated that the revenue of the present year, compared with that of 1875, showed an increase of only one per cent instead of the normal increase of three percent. Ex- ports were stationary, in consequence of the depression of business abroad. THE ARGENTINE REPUBLIC. Though the insurrection in the Argentine Republic was reported as having been suppressed, there seems to be some fear of afresh outbreak, Further private | telegrams of a disquieting naturo have been received from Buenos Ayres, THE ANGLO-AMERICAX CABLE. Tho Ang'o-American Cable Company now have direct wires betwoen their offices in Londoo, Manchoster, Bristol and Liverpoot under their own management and control, PULL WEATHER.

Smith last even- ing on his own recognizance, Smith has beon held in afilthy prison for nearly three months, part of the time in a dark cell, without a particle of proof against him. The action of Revueltas has throughout been cruelly tyrannical, @ gross outrage on Smith and an insult to the United States which, if not rodressed by the government, will leave no American safo on this frontier, PROGRESS OF THE RRVOLUTI The report that President Lerdo and bis Capinet had retired toward tho Pacific coast is confirmed from many apparently reliable sources, General Revueltas this morning issued a circular letter to the merchants of Matamoros, requesting them to meet him at three P. M. to-Gay to consider on important business, and stating that they would be subjected to a loan, or in dofault thereof be forced to personal Jabor on the for- tifcations, Tho merchants fear that this ex:raordi- uary invitation involves some scheme ot plunder pre- paratory to the flight of Revucltag. THE NEWPORT CITY CLERK. MARSH DISCOVERED TO BE A DEFAULTER—SERI- OUS COMPLICATION OF HIS ACCOUNTS AS GUARDIAN AND ADMINISTRATOR, [BY TELEGRAPH TO THB HERALD.) . Newrorr, R. 1., Dec. 8, 1876, Tho mysterious disappearance of the City Clerk is at last explained, and the painful fact is recorded that he is a default This news will be read with pro- found rogret by the numerous summor residents who, 1n tho transaction of real estate matters, became inti- mately acquainted with him. The Finance Committee of the City Council met this afternoon, and they re- port that since the last quarter he has failed to turn over to tho City Treasurer the sum of $1,573 76. This, although it proves that ho is a .defaulter on a small scale, is nothing compared to the announcement which must be made within a day or two that his accounts as administrator and guardian of the several estates to which he was appointed are very soriously complicated. The Invos- tigation into these accounts so far revealsa very un- Satisfactory state of aflwirs, especially to his bonde men, Unless vouchers can be found for payments which he has made to the beirs-at-law his oondsmen will be called upon by the Judge of Probate to make up a large deficiency, bow much cannot be stated to-night.

NEW JEL RSEY LEGIS LATURE, MR. HUTCHINSON, THE REPUBLICAN CANDI- DATE, WILL CONTES® THE SEAT OF MR. POWERS IN THE LOWER HOUSE O¥ THE LEG- ISLATURE, Tresxtox, Dee. 8, 1876, Mr. Robert L. Hutchinson, the republican caudi- date at the late election tor member of the lower house of the Legisiature in the Third Legislative die- trict of Mercer county, has formally notitied Mr. J. Vance Powers, his successful democratic competitor, that he will contest his right to hold the seat in the Assembly. M Mr, Hutchinson succeeds in unseating Mr, Powers, and gets (he seat himself, the House, which 1s now a tie—tBirty democrats to thirty repablicans—will be changed to thirty-one republicans and twenty-nine democrats—a republican majority of two. This ma- jority would overcome the democratic majority of one in the Senate and thus give tho republicans a majority of one on joint ballot, thereby insuring the election of & republican United States Senator, The covtest must be decided within two weeks alter the meeting of the Legisiature, as on the second Wednesday afier the meeting ol the Legislature the Senator is to be elected in joint meeting. If po organization of the House is efected within that trme then the contest cannot bo carried on, a8 no committee on elections will have been appointed, If the House is organized vy tho election ofa democratic Speaker then, of course, the Committee on Elections wilt contain a democratic m jority, If the committee reports in favor of Sr. Pow. crs, it is doubtinl if the House will sastain the report, but may reject t and deciare in favor of Mr. Huteh- inson, The latter action can be taken by a strict party vote of 30 to 20—Mr. Powers not having the right to vote on the question because he ts an inter- ested party and 18 deburred from doing Fo by the rules, The ihirty repubticans may therefore outvote tho twenty-nine cemocrats and by their action make the election of a republican Senator positive, Ivas, therefore, uncertain that apy one of the demo- for the enatorship will be successiu! consequentiy, 8.

Aunaxy, Dec. 8, 1876, In the Lord canal suit to-day, Sr. Peckham, of counsel for the defendant, moved to strike out the evi- dence of the Attorney General as irrelevant and in- competent, . Decision was reserved on the motion for | the present, and Nathan Ackloy was called as a wit- ness for tne defence. Atthe conclusion of his evi- dence Mr, Peckham moved to disiniss the complaint, whereupon argument ensued, Mr, Peckham, in support of his motion to throw out the Attorney General’s evidence, made a severe on- slaught upon that official, the severity of which has been the subject of eneral discussion among the Bar of the © city. He claimed = that the Attorney General had detailea on the witness stand a private conversation which be had had with Jarvis Lord, in which he obtained admissions of guilt by making false statements of reputed testimony of George D. Lord before an investigating committee, Mr. Peckbam proceeded as follows :— ‘That the man who stands presumably at the head of the profession in this State, tbat ihe man who is sup- posed to give to all other members in tis State of our profession an example of bigh integrity and bigh honor; that the man who is presumanly of untr- nished reputation and of sterling integrity should so fur forges bimseli cs to upon the stand, under tho circumstances tha ®een actailed here, and at that time give to this fury, the only evidence upon which this case is to stand or fall, an admission obtained from this gentleman by what appears to be from his own ovidence an unquali- fied avd substantial falsehood; I say such an cxnibi- tion has never been made of any member of the Har within my knowledge or withm my hearing as has been made by the honorable gentleman who oecupes the position of first law oflicer of the Eupire State, ‘The affair creates considerable excitement, as Mr. Pecknain and Mr. Fa‘rchild have beretotore been con- idered good Iriends, and Mr, Veckham presented Mr. Fairchild for nomination at tho State Convention orig- inally. FRENCH OFFICIALS AKRESTED. ‘A REMARKABLE CASE IN THE CENTENNIAL EX- HIBITION—GREAT EXCITEMENT IN THE ¥RENCH DEPARTMENT-—CAPTAIN AUFRYE AR- RESTED AND A WRIT OF CAPIAS ISSUED AGAINST THE FRENCH CONSUL IN NEW YORK, (BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.] Puitapenruta, Dee. 8, 1876. An affair ot grave importance, involving, as it in- evitably does, diplomatic intervention, has just taken place, In tho month of August last, owing to numer. ous petty theits having occurred in the French seciion of the Exhibition, and complaint baving been made to the Director Gencral, the detectives were set on watch, and, as aresult of their investigations, ar- rested on suspicion Arthur L., Smith, tho Cen tennial guard on duty. On the case coming betore the jury the representative of a French exhibitor of fancy jewelry acted as prosecutor. The jury acquit- ted Smith, who was reinstated in the corps and again placed on duty in the French section, This oc casioned loud protests on the part of all tho French exbibitors, and yielding to tho expression of feeling conveyed to him, the Director General had the man placed elsewhere. Smith bad threatened the exhibitor who prosecuted bim with an action for slander, but nothing occurred, and the whole thing was well nigh forgotten, ARREST OF CAFTAIN AUFRYE, What, then, was tho surprise of Captain R, Aufrye the delegate French Commissioner, when this aiter- noon a Sberifl’s officer appeared with a writ of capias duty signed by the Judge, at tho instance of said Arthur L, Smith, forthe arrest ot Captain Aufrye, M, Ravin, D. Elpeux, the French Vice Consul in Phila- delpbia; M. EK, De Laforet, French Consul in New York, and st. Goorge A. Glacnzer, tormer secretary of the commission. Tbe two latter, It may ve observed, are in France, and M. D. Eipeux the officer had not jound, according to his ownaccuunt Captain Auirye, as every one knows, 18 military attaché to the French Legation at Wastington, and, as such, is, like tho consuls, entitied to iminunity from arrest in civil cases. In the custody of ihe Sheriff's officer he pro- ceeded to the United States Marshal’s office, but that funetionary, who has a list of the entiro Diplomaue Corps, bad ‘already gone heme, it being after four o'clock. The Captain was then taken before Deputy Sheriff Spooner, who informed him that, it he wished to avoid being token to jail, he must dud two sureties in $500 each for his appearance to answer tothe charge of slander next monin, OBTAINING BONDSMEN, Captain Aulrye lett with the deputy sberiff, and, in custody of tho ollicer, procecded to Colonel Thom: Scott's house, where he was met by Mr. R. D. Bar ty, of u noxsylvania Ruilruad, and Mr. Touguet, son-in- law of Mr, De Latoret, who immediately offered to act ax his bondsmen, The party proceeded to the deputy sher:f's residence, and there, after having been in custody over four hours, the Cnptain was reieased, Of course the case 13 not ended; but, meanwhile, it may be stated that the proceediigs arc simply inex. cusuble in every way, as the exhibitor who prosecuted Smith ts still hore. SERIOUS DETENTION, Captain Autrye, besides the indignity pat upon him, has also to complain of the half day lost in getting off the French goous, no packages being allowed to icaye the Exhibition without his signature, aud she commis. sion having contracted with tho Transutiantic line to ship the cases by the steamer of the 16th inst, For this purpose the packages must loave Puiladeipbia not later than Tuesday next, and, with the many customs forma ities, the loss of & few’ hours 1s of material con- sequence.
