One of the candidates for township trustee at New Albany seems to lie conducting his canvass on the same tactics that have been popularized here by Smith King, the republican candidate for that office. An extract from the New Albany man’s manifesto reads as follows, showing that the importance of the office is becoming understood in Floyd county as well as here in Marion. The township trustee disbursesAhe township fund, and whether or not it is prudently, ecoaom-

Every dollar expended through the office ol the township trustee comes directly from the .taxpayer’s pocket aud is expended at the discretion of the trustee. An ignorant, Incombetent, or improvident official may, and probably would, waste the funds, by being imposed upon by local and itinerant imposters, or he may squander the money ol the people upon undeserving favorites.

WAR MUST COME, What Igrnatiefr and Gortschakoff Think. [Cable to the New York Herald.] St. Petersburg, March 27.—The Journal de St Petersburg, which is the recognized organ of Prince Gortschakoff, the Russian chancellor, published on Sunday last a remarkable resume of the European situation, which was written entirely by Baron Somini, the chancellor’s secretary. The tone of the article is very decided, and concludes with the following significant words: “The moment has arrived when this question should be definitely settled— with the concurrence of Continental Europe if it wishes it, Without its concurrence if

necessary.”

The Herald correspondent had an interview with Ignatieff before his departure from Vienna, during which he said, in unequivocal terms, “I am going to give to the Austrian cabinet all the explanation they may desire regarding the preliminaries of peace." There shall- be no more room for equivocatiou. England will be let alone in her opposition to us and to the termination of the war.” “What would Russia then do?” the correspondent askad. “We are* only too wilKng to quit Turkey now,” replied Ignatieff; but the English, l\y the demonstrations niade-by their fleet and their.refusal to allow our troops to embark at Boujakdere, seem to oppose our going. In that case,” be added, in a significant tone, “if we are driven to extremities, we shall remember a certain phrase, which has now become celebrated, “J’y suis, j’y reste”—(I am here and here I

shall remain.)

The above are General Ignatieff’s exact words. “Aon are then decided to go to the last extremity?” asked the correspondent. “We are ready {or everything,” said the general, confidently. “The Grand Duke Nicholas only awaits the word.” The Herald correspondent then had an interview with one of GortschokofFs principal secretaries. He said: “The bad faith of England has aroused general irritation kere, and the most excitable cry out that the conditions of the peace are decisive, as far as Russia is concerned. England loses sight of the fact that we can # send one of our Skobeleffs, if it is necessary* to go out of our way even.as’ far as India, and that on the other hand we can perhaps make an alliance with the United States, which ‘would menace England’s possessions in America. None of these things,” continued the secretary, “are impossible. Whatever may come of it during the week which'is now commeucing, everything will be in Austria’s hands, and the solution, for good or evil, is imminent.” “Then,” said the correspondent, “it is an ultimatum which Gfch. Ignatieff is bringing to Vienna.” “It is really an ultimatum,” answered the secretary, “for whether Austria is with ns or against us we go on.” The faregoing conversation, as well as that which the Herald correspondent had with Gen. Ignatieff, is piven exactly as spoken. But whether England is to be fought alone or an Anglo-Austrian alliance faced, the present temper of the Russian people would seem k> offer little or no hope for a peaceful settlement 'of the difficulty. From the czar himself down through all the grades of Russian society to the humblest peasant, there seems to be an all pervadiRg, unalterable resolution that the terms of peace agreed on between Russia and Turkey snail be maintained in their entirety, and defended, if necessary, to the last extremity. •

SECOi EDM The Eastern Question.

Little Change In the Attitude of the Powers,

But War Is Considered Certain. - » THE KASTERN QUESTION. Prospects of the Congress — Germany's - Attitude. Londou, March 27.—The government has distributed among the boat builders an order for additional horse boats to be delivered immediately. The Times says to surrender the hope of the congress is to abandon the eastern question to the drifts and currents of separate jealousies and excitements, and to throw away the only means of submitting it to consideration. To sacrifice substantial principles even for the sake of avoiding such a danger should be the object of all the governments, that of Russia included, and to promote the meeting of the congress by all means which do not obviously and necessarily involve such sacrifice. The utterances "from Berlin on the eastern question this morning,, the first semi-official expression of opinion since the hitch in the congress project are entirely different from the assertions hitherto made by special correspondents. The Berlin Post, which prints nothing political without a purpose and which is one of Prince Bismark’s organs, says a failure of the congress wonld probably "result in Russia and England remaining at peace but arming for war. These prolonged armaments England can infinitely better afford than Russia, who would be reduced toexhaustion were she obliged to maintain tier arms on a war footing for • some years, as Russia can not attack England while Eng. land is perfectly in position to bide her time. The czar will probably be driven to extend his conquests in the interval, the better to be prepared for the collision, when it does . occur, hot in such case, Austria and Greece would join England |b protect their own interests. As to Germany she will never fight for Russian or any other foreign interests. Russia therefore had better restrain her ambition. The Times’ correspondent at Vienna, says Gen. Ignitieffs’ purposes are unknown, but probably as the person most familiar with treaty of San Stefano, he comes to explain its •fecopa and show how it can be modified in the interest of Austria. But as the Austrian government is perfectly capable of judging these matters for itself, (Jen. Ignatieff is not more likely to succeed on this than on the two former missions. The Russian answer to England’s latest question merely says that the government adhered to its former views. This does not sound very promising, but It is still thought here that she will not close all interchange of opinion, k A London correspondent of the Manchester Guardian: “The situation so far as regards the meeting of the congress is much improved by assurances that Lord Derby haa received from Count Schouvaloff during the past few hours. Schouvaloff kept Russia’s negative in his pocket until he received authority to give these assurances. There is some fear, however, that the smooth word may be intended to quiet England until Ignatieff can regulate am understanding with Austica. Vienna, Maxell 27.—To-day's newspapers consider that the congress has failed and that Austria must now look to the protection of her own interest. The new tree- press, liberal, anti-Russian and Bismarcki&n, says that Gen. Ingnatieff’s purpose is to isolate England, • The Deutsche Zeitung, strong German and anti-Hungarian, thinks Austria will gain by an Anglo-Russian war, because Russia mast pay a high price for Austria’s neutrality. A Vienna correspondent telegraphs that a preliminary agreement between Russia and Austria has already been reached, and that general Igrtatieff will merely stop on his way to Constantinople to confirm the agreement. His visit to Constantinople is also regarded as significant; and it is' feared here that efforts will be made at once to induce Turkey to ui&ke close alliance with Russia. Another Vienna correspondent says: “It is lielieved Russia is is preparing for war .with England; 200,000 of the Russian landwehr were called oat on Monday,” The Journal de St. Petersburg declares Russia will pot endure a position obliging her to maintain her armaments indefinitely. Indiana Concentrating for Trouble. Chicago, March 27.—Unofficial but trustworthy information from Fort Walsh confirms the recent story of a large confederation of hostile Indians in that vicinity. Sitting Bull and Spotted Eagle have been reinforced by lodges fronl the Missouri river agencies, including Red Cloud's, and it is now estimaled that there are from 5,000 to 7,000 warriors within a 100 miles of Ft. Walsh. Some of .these bands have been seen by Miles’s scouts. The savages are very restless and are under constant surveilance of the too limited force of Canadian mounted police, who evidently anticipate trouble. At a council the last week in F«!bruary the Indians resolved to resist the Buffalo law and Hitting Bull counselled moderation toward the Canadians, but breathed defiance against the Americans. The force is weli armed and splendidly equipped, and could probably be augmented to 10,000 men, in which case a vigorous summer campaign would lie .probable. Invitations for tne Congress Withdrawn. LoMi>oit, March 27.—A Berlin dispatch says: “The powers have declined a' suggestion made by Russia that the congress be held without England. Prince Gortschakoff is endeavoring to bring about the meeting . Of three emperors and three' chancellors. Russia is understood to have indicated her willingness to make further concessions to Austria and some concessions also to Roumania being prompted, it is thought, by growing apprehensions of differenced with England. Germany has unde* the circumstances abandoned for the present all idea of issuing invitations for the congress. — ■ ■ Tried to Murder His Mother.
