I/ondun, July 1.?A special
from Vienna says thai Prince
Milan, in hia proclamation,
annoubcee: MTuJ*ey prorokcd
war by not satisfying Bosnia
and by threatening Servia
we enter Bosuea in the
cause of humanity and
nationality, and to re-establish
peace without offending Tur?
key's integrity." The proc?
lamation mentions Austria
' thankfully for her efforts to
- protect the Christians.
The Servians sad the Mon?
tenegrins have entered Turk?
ish territory. A declaration
of war has been duly lodged
at Vienna. The state of
siege recently proclaimed in
Servia baa been counterman?
ded, but the exportation of
grain, victuals and arms are
forbidden.
A special telegram from
Cittaoge, dated Sunday: Mon?
tenegro aunt to-day her dec?
laration of war to Turkey. The
people received the procla
m?iionwi?i"great enthusiasm.
A despatch to the Daily
News from Belgrade, says it
is reported that the
Pasha, in command at Wid?

refused to co-operate with
Servia.
A London' despatch says,
"The Libersls iu Parliament
will question the Ooverment
respecting its Eastern policy.
The liberal sentiment of the
entire onntry is against unne?
cessary complications which
may be caused by the support
of Turkey. Fears prevail
that the war in the East can?
not be localized or confined
to a conflict between the Ser?
vians and Turks. There is
much talk about the review of
the volunteers, which was
held yesterday. Hitherto the
Government had not permit?
ted the volunteer reviews on
so large a scale in Hyde Park.
The Government is evidently
now patting this hitherto de?
spised force on the back."
Paris, July 3.?The Journal
des Debuts publishes a special
from Belgrade, which says

Visviu, Jnly 8.?Serviahas

they declare the Danube neu?
tral and prevent the Turks'

tions, Servia will obstruct it

How Gov. I^ldek Receiveo j
his Nomination,?When the
short despatch was received,
the Governor** speaking to se
vend friends in a tone scarcely!
above a whisper, said: "I can i
tell you what has been done.
This nomination was not made j
by the leaders of the party, j
! It was the people who made!
; it. They wastreform. They ?
have wanted it a long while, ?
and, in looking about, they j
have become convinced that1
it is to be found here (point- j
ing at himself.) They want!
it; that is what they are after, j
They are sick of the corrup- :
tions and mal-adrainistrationi
of their affairs. They want'
a'change, and one for the:
j bettor?a thorough reform a- ;
tion. You will find iheit:
j will be a larger Germau vote
polled next fall than ever,'
and it will be largely cast for
the Democratic ticket; I know
that.*' !
Retrenchment.?The Bos* |
ton Herald, Independent, ;
with t&e largest circulation'
of any paper published in
New England, says: "The
Democratic House should
stand firm for economy. The
retrenchment it proposes is
reasonable, and will not im?
pair the efficiency of the Go
vcrnment.
Southern Melodies.?A
characteristic feature of the
exhibition, and a very pic?
turesque one, too, is the pre?
sence in the North-western
portion of Machinery Hall of
several colored men, who are
employed by a Virginia to?
bacco manufacturer to show
the process of packing to?
bacco, but who, while they
are packing, amuse them?
selves and a larger number of
hearers, by singing well
known Southern melodies.
They have u consciously be?
come quite a distinctive fea?
ture of the exhibition, and
attract a great deal of atten
tention, particularly from
people of the North and for?
eigners who have never heard
a "darkey song" before.
The 2d.?The city of Phil?
adelphia was all excitement
on the 2d?flags, banners and
transparencies flying in front
every building, and the streets
were thronged with people

"Mamma,** said little Nell,

tempted to crawl under a
