The Political Correspondence of Vienna publishes the following as the text of the declaration made by Gen- eral Ignatieff at the last sitting of the Conference at Constantinople:— It is with extreme regret that 1 declare that there is no longer any reason for the Conference continuing its deliberations, and that wo consider the Conference as dissolved, in consequence of the reply just commu- nicated to us by the delegate of the Sublime Porte. This reply is the rejection pure and simple of the i, Made at the lust sitting but one by Lord jalisbury, and upon which the representatives of the great Powers had agreed. My colleagucs and myself have declared to the delegates of the Ottoman Empire that we have rece!ved instructions to depart from Constantinople, leaving the conduct of current business to churgés d’affaires, I regret to be obliged to state that our common and sincere efforts have remained without result, and that our proposals, ag well ag the policy of Russia, acknowledged by all to be so moderate, and the constant and elevated object of 1t8 pacific action, have been misunderstood and wrongly interpreted. The Powers, acting according to their convictions and in their quality of guaranteeing Powers to the Ottoman Empire, have done everything that was possible and necessary to preserve European peace und to point out to Turkey the only line of éon- duct st can totlow and which permits it to preserve its integrity. The Sublime Porte ey refused to adopt this course, Carried away by patriotic demonetrations which are the outcome of noisy agitation and of a movement which, in spite a .cer- tain ¢éclat, is wanerg In foundation and 1s not without danger, the Porte bas opposed a refusal pure and sinple'to the sincere and unanimous dosires of Europe; in this manner {t perverts the relations which unite it to the great Powerx, and exposes it- sell, a8 was remarked by Lord Salisbury in the last sitting but one, to the danger of forfeiting the right ot invoking the protection of the Puwers and tho good Fasc of the guarantees which are insured to it by reaties, of TURKRY RESPONSIBLE, Tho Porte equally places itsa!! in the position of as- suming the responsibility of eventual disasters which may bethe consequence of this attitude, f hasten, therefore, to declare that, should the war which Europe has beon desirous of preventing again break our between the Porte and Servia and Montenegro, alter the rupture of the pence negotiations; an should the security of the Christians bo placed’ in tho slightest danger, either in the towns, in the interior or ‘n the sdaports, my government will consider these as fuets intended to involve Europe in war, | considerit my duty to add acertain number of other considerations. Actuated bya desire not to depart trom the letter of the English propositions, we have up to the presi time abstained from discussing questions which hae not an immediate and direct bearing on the object aimed at by the Conference, But while Ottoman tnnc- honaries organized manifestations in favor of the status quo, great number of petitions aud memorials wero presented to the plenipotentiaries of Europe. The subscribers to these documents prayed the Conference to take inte consideration the situation of the Christians inhabiting other provinces than those which are men- tioned in the English programme, » The inhabitants of ssaly and the Epirus especially have set forth the hurdsbips which they have toendure. The Cretans have hkew'! ought to show the defects of the organic law of their island, and to prove the unwillingness of the Turkish functionaries to carry out tho provisions of that luw, Lt is true that no discussion has been raised on these questions, but tbat docs not imply that we are going to pass them over in silence, VERY DESIROUS OF PKACK, Our governments being apimated with the desire of muntaining peace and quiet in the Kast, we call tho serious attention of tie Sublime Porte to the situation of the Christians of the Ottoman Empire, and wo ro- mind it that efficacious measures must be taken in order that humanity may be spared the sad spectacle of the repotition of the tragic scenes which have ex- citod the indignation of the civihzed world, and that without waiting tor tho shirepulony effects of the con- stitution which has just been drawn up, and which, even supposing it to be perfect, can only be fruit in a future more or less distant. I cannot, at the mo- ment, pronounce an opinion upon the value of this constitution, which, to be appreciated and defined, ree quires the promulgation of many laws. But, consid- ering that the progtamation of this constitution was contrary to the principles of the Hatti-Humayoun of 1856, and of the impertal firman of December 12, 1875, and that the treaties concluded with Europe are broken, 1 will observe to the Sublime Porte that henceforth {t must guard itself against tofringing those treaties, | espectally call 1ts most serious atten- tion to the immunities and privileges of the Christian communities, and particularly to the rights enjoyed by tho Christian chiets of aioke; communities. gNone of those rights and privileges must be diminish@d in any degree, or confounded with other rights, TURKEY'S ENORMOUS DEBTS, There is yetanothor question of general interest. which deserves to have the serious attention of the Porte, ‘he furkish government, after gaining the confidence of the European capitulists, has contracted Joans which amount to milliards of francs, The reso- Jution which the Porte has recently taken appears to contirm the engagements info which the Porte has en- tered with Its creditors, Nevertheless, the situation of the latter is not, up to the present, in any way im- proved, We believe, then, that it is the urgent Interest. of the Porte to think, without delay, of taking the measure snocessary to settle what the holders of Ottoman bonds have to reccive. That 1s theend which the plenipotentiaries had in view when they demanded that, in order to protect the bondbolders, part of the revenues of the provinces of which the plenipotentiaries were charged with regu. jJating the internal administration should be handed over to the Imperial Ottoman Bank, But the Porte having rejected this proposition, the Ottoman govern- ment would act iu conformity with the rules of justice taking energetic measures in this sense, In con- clusion, [ expreas the following wish:—May the coun- sellors of the Suitan who, through the influence exer- cised by them on public opinion, have brought about the rupture of the negotiations nnd led to this result, not have occasion to repent this deed and to deplore the unhappy consequences which may arise from the modification of the actual situation which determined the conditions of existence of the Ottoman Empire in the st oben concert and rAtdvdieal its integrity, EGYPTIAN GOSSIP. THE KHEDIVE CAPTURES TWO HUNDRED MIL- LIONS’ WORTH OF PROPERTY—THE RUIN OF ISMAIL SADYK—THE PROGRESS OF THE ABYS- SINIAN WAR. Carino, Egypt, Dec. $1, 1876. Monfidence in the Egyptian government has vory greatly, increased since tho ‘‘disappearance’’ of the late Minister of Finance, and the decisive mensures taken by the Khedive in removing this evil spirit of the administration haye mot with the most universal ap- proval ‘The late Mintster’s personal bistory 1s quite dramatic, and worthy of the land of the Arabian Nights’ entertainment. Ismail Saayk was the son ofa poor “fellah ;” his mother was nurse of the presont Khedive, Tho child owed to this fortunate circumstance the fact of his receiving instruction to allow of his em- ployment as clerk in one of the government offices Later, when the present Kbedive ascended the throne of Egypt, ho was made Inspector General ot the civil adminiatration, in which — posi- tion be was enabled to visit almost everv portion of Egypt. By bis great ability and energy he managed to become thoroughly acquainted with all the sources of Egyptian revenue, to manipulate their paymonts so that they all passed through bis hands, and stealthily to acquire a prodigious fortune. Per. fectly familiar with the most minute details of tho resources and administration of the land Ismail Sadyk presented himself to the Khedive when the first Gnanelal ombarrassments begau to be felt. He wag able to give the most Intelligent advice, and his communications were deemed most precious, Ho soon became Minister of Finance, He owned palaces in all the important towns of Egypt, and supported establishmonts more expensive and regal than those ofthe Khedive himself, He had 700 concubines and retainere innumerable, His charactor was most cruel and merciless to his inferiora, aad most cringing and ervile to those fromm whom he thought there might be anything to guin. He followed to a jot the Eastern maxim, ‘Kiss the hand which gou cannot crush.’ He punished bis enemies with the most savage energy, and was especially cruel to the unhappy Arabs, whom he piteously stripped of their meagre earnings, causing those who relused his tucessunt demands for money to be beaten to death or punisned. . THE WINTER OF 118 DISCONTENT. Upon the day of his fall he was in the very height of his power and spiendor. He knew that if Messrs. Goschen and Joubert should arrive at any true knowl edgo of the adminitration of bis department his ruseality would be brought to light, and bis tall would be certaip, To avoid this he resorted to a most daring Ho issued secretly to the most powerful # messages calculated toflame tho fanaticism i ir hatred to Christiana into acuon, He announced thatthe Khadive was about to sell their native land to the Curistians, He aimed af nothing less than sovereign power, A LONG PAREWELIA One bright morning he was invited by the Khedive to drive with him, He then left his palace, his splendor and his 700 coucubipes, never to see them again. He was driven to a kiosque in ho gardens of the Ghizereh the Inte Minister of War, was appointed Minister of WHO 18 THE AMERICAN? The now law courts seem to be on quite smoothly. Anew judge is about to ‘added ta the Ismailio tribunal. He will probably be an American, je most important causes now pending those to eclaim some £5,000,000 maven ‘of treasury bonds fraudulently hypothecated by the late Minister of Fi- nance, He raised some £2,000, 000 sterling on them at rates of between twenty and sixty. cent, No one, however, seems to know what has become of the £2,000,000 sterling. GORDON PAciA, General Gordon Pacha arrived here on the 15th of December witb his faithful attendants, MM. Gessi and Piaggia Healso brought with him two natives of Central Africa as black as ebony, and a young lion cub about the size of a kitten. General Gordon arrived in moat excellent health, aud in his person bears strong evidence of the Central African climate as not being zo unhealthy as imagined. Genoral Gordon was deco- rated with the order of the Medjidich and his commis- sion a8 Governor General of # Provinces of Equator renewed. He bas left tor Eugiand to pass a few weeks, and will shortly recommence his valuable work in the administration and economic government ot the provinces of Central Africa, of which Major Prout, a young and talented ollicer of engineers, bas been named Vice Governor General. DOM PEDROVERDAD, The Emperor and Empress of Brazil also arrived here a few weeks since utter having visited the Holy Land. Their Majesties won golden opinions from everybody by their modest and agreeable manners ana ap the delicacy with which they declined to put the £gyptian government to lavish expen: of en. tertaining durmg its present financial pressure. Tho Emperor and Empress are now gone up the Nale, They intend visiting Assouan, tne first cataract, THE ABYSSINIAN WAR. Egypt 18 most assuredly ths land forrumors, It was quite current in the cafés here the other day that the Abyssiniang were In ull march upon Khartoum, and would soon come down the Nile, Such reports ai fetes up daily by the specutators of the Bourse. But let me assure you of some facts concerning the Abys- sinian war:— First—There bas not been a hostile shot fired since Jast March, Second—VThat the entire Egyptiun army in the Abys- sinian campaign did not exceed 15,000 mea, all told, Third—That the entire Egyptian loss was not more than 3,000 men, of whom 1,500 were killed or wounded in the three days’ fighting of March 7,8 andy. ‘The remainder succumbed to sickness and the ordinary casualties of a campaign, Fourth—That utter tho three days’ fighting in March the Abyssinians left the country then occupied by the ‘ayptian troops in their possession and sued for co. Negotiations have been in train for some time, but no one knows whether peace has been formally con- cluded or not. A strong cordon of Egyptian posts command the country. CAN'T GRT AWAY. Rather @n eccentric looking individual has been bero for some time, who, as it is announced in the Engliah newspapers, 18 about to take command of the Abyssin- jan armies, He isan English militiaman. His great difliculty at present seems to be to get to Abyssinia, his departure, it is stated, being prevented by the egy p! government. The elliciency of the Abys- sinlan force will not be increasod by the advent of European officers; for they never can get any real con- trol over the people, and the irregular marauding bands under their own native *rases” or chiefs ia much more dangerous to a disciplined force than any attempt at regular formation could be. THK CAIRO THEATRES, Tho Operaand French Theatre are ag usual giving poreuriaateds upon alternate nights, The attendave howover, is very small, wars and rumors of war, and lay pressure reducng the number of visitors here greatly. SKILLED LABOR FROM ABROAD. Quite a number of English are now employed in the various departments of the government, noticeably in the Post Office. The Post Office has been one of the most officient administrations of this government, It has herctofore been carried on under Italian auspice: The town is now full of “economizea” Italian Post Office émployés, whose salaries varied {rom £3 to £10 sterling per month. They give place to English “ex. perts,”’ whose salaries are Ip many instances £1,000 a year. We patiently await a corresponding increase in efficiency. One result is, however, that it now takes thy “experts” five hours "to sort the mail after its ar- rival'in Cairo, whereas the £3 to £10 Italians used to accomplish in about half the time. THE OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE RACE, THE MEN COMPOSING THE CREWS WHICH ARE TO RACK ON THE THAMES ON MARCH 24, [From the Pall Mall Gazette.) It is seldom, if over, that the two university crews have presented so unsettled a shape so long after the commencement of term, At Cambridge most of the men who are likely to row havo already come up, and have gone to work; but the expected stroke, Shafto, of Jesus, who filled that place last year, has still to ar- rive, and until he takes his place the crew cannot be considered much more than scratch, If he were going to take any other seat than stroke, the crew would be — acquiring uniformity behind such other stroke as had been selected, and when he joined the swing would not ve changed. But since hels to come in as the stern the style will havo to commence almost de novo whi he takes his place. However, the practice meantime cannot be considered altogether lost time, for at all events the other mon areal! learning, or should be learning, to correct their personal faults, which 1{ cured will make them all the more ready to fall inte swing when onco their regular stroke is installed, ‘The crew is at present made up of fourold and four new hands, Tho latter are not always the same men, THE LIGHT BLUE CRRW, Ferraf, of First Trinity, has held the bow seat trom the beginning, and is not unlikely to retain it to the end, He is a winner of the Colquhoun Sculls, and hag shown himself on other occasions capable of doing good work for a light weight. Holmes, of Clare, bas been pretty constantly at No. 2, In the trial eights of December last he did mot shine as a very brilliant per- former, but ho seems to havo improved a little sinca that time, and as he is nota, heavy wolght, scaling about 11 st. 6 Ibs, or less when trained, he will not be such a great burden to the boat even if ho fails to im- prove as much as could be wished. No. 3 nade bas been alternately Ulled by Allon, of Lady Marg ul st. 9lbs.,and Spurroll, of Trinity Hall, 12 st. 3 “Ibs. ‘These men rowe respectively 6 and 4 in the winning trial eight of last December, Hoskyns, of Jesus brothor to the quendam “blue” of the sane name, and who rowed stroke of the pi trial eight, bas been now and then taking No. 4, whenover the. president has gone out of the bout for the ee of coaching. The stroke has been taken for the timo by Preat, of Jesus, who only came up in October, and rowed stroke of the winning college four in November. When Shafto comes.in Prest may be found in one of tho places more forward in the boat, The four old oars who are already rowing are: —Hockin, of Jesus, No. 6 last year, now rowing 7; Gurdon, of Jesus, No. 4 last year, and now 6; Pike, of Caius,’ No, 6 last year, and now in the same place, and Lewis, of Caius, the presi: dent, No. 2 last year, and now rowing 4 when he does notcoach, The coxswain of 1876—Davis, of Clare— will be again available, and is above the average of university pilots for skill and nerve, if we may fodge {rom bis performance last Easter, The three absen- tees who rowed Jast year are:—Brancker, of Jesus, who rowed bow, and who was at one time supposed to be coming up again, but who seems by report to have changed his mind;’ W. Close, of First Trinity, who rowed 3, and H. Rhodes, of Jesus, who was 7. There 18 more water than ustial m the Cam, and this should tend to make the rowing livelier than that usually seen in Cambridge crews while on thoir own river, THR DARK BLUR RIGHT. Oxiord seoms likely for the present to be as much plagued with floods us they were Inst season. How- ever, even with this hindrance, they might have begun work carlier than they did, This term commenced a week later thun that of Cambridge, and when the president came by ¢ be found very few hands ready to goto work with him, At first not a singlo ald oar Besides himself was in residence at the beginning of last week, To man an eight with a lotof men of whom only half at most would im the long run bo wanted forthe crew would have been almost waste of time, and the president was not unwise in devoting his first few days to coaching somo of his new men in pair oars, Murrlott, of Brasenose, who is courted on as the probable stroke, was not up; and when at Jast an eight was manned the stroke was taken by Miller, of Exeter, who did not row in the “‘trials,”’ any more than did Fenn, of Cambridge, but, hke the latter, no ie not uplikely to row bow finally. The new men who have been tried so tar have been, besides Miller, Grentell, of Balliol, 12. st, 8 lbs.—about the best man who rowod in the: trial eights, and promising oar Pelham, of Magdalon, 12 at 4 Ibs iainton, Christ Churet, 12 stg iv. ; Cowles, 8t. John’ mn 1) et. 1 ib, and algo Burne, ot Keble, and Findlay, of Balliol; butwe fancy that “ latter were used inore as emporary warming pan: nd that the new choices will lie with those first mentioned. Mulbolland, of Balhol, has been rowing on and off, but he i: supposed to be not strong enough, constitutionally, in the doc tors’ opinions, and if 80 be will be lost to Oxford. The old ours who are available are, besides Edwardes-Mo (the president) and riott, Stayner, of St, John who rowed 6 and Hobart, of Exeter, No. 3 last year, Hobart was the next to come up alter the president, and on Saturday Marriott took his place at stroke, Staynor also joining the crew the seeond time down, Miller went to bow when Marriott came in, Cowles 2, Stainton 3, Grenfell 4, Peiham at 6, and the other two pluces filled alternately by Stayner, Hobart and Mule holland, ‘There was @ strong and very rougn heavy weight in the trial eights—Booth, of Pombroke, 13 st, 4 Ibs, but he does not seem to have veen tried yet. The material of the two crews seems pretty woil balanced, so far as can be judged at she Oirst outset. Cambridge has alarger number of “mi: oars to begin with, and if the race were rowed m6 fortoight’s time would have for this reason a deoidea advantage; but there is plenty of time to work up the now meu tb the Oxiord boxt, and they baye plenty of strengtt, without being a rough lot, Webave seen tar nore uncouth oars turned out in very decent for! alter six weeks’ coaching. There will be justeig weeks of work from the day when Marriott irst took his seat to that of the race, if the Oxture should be on the usual day, ‘Ther has been some talk of the day being oe on account of the time of high water on March which 19 the regulation “Saturday week beturo Palace, He tound himself in the custody of « strong gard.
