The news to-day is vory warlike. It is a well-known fact that salmon, especially canned salmon, more especially salmon canned on tho Columbia river is splendid diet for a fighting man and if those bel ligerent English and Russians know what success demands they will, when order ing their guns and swords and beef and things, send also for two or three million rases of salmon.

An appreciative audience adsembled at tho Congregational church last evening to hear some fine vocal and instrumental music by some of Mis3 Hattio Bitely's advanced piano class, assisted by Asto ria's bast musical talent. To say that the young ladies ticuUTod themselves creditably, would be but to voice the ver dict rendered by those present, while tho exqufaito rendition of the other soloctions by those who kindly lent their aid, was an additional source of pleasure to the audience. Mrs.Wyalt was in splendid voice and was fully entitled to tho rapturous ap nlausewith which she was received. 1'rof. Francis, who has long since endoared himself to the Astoria public by his ex quisite melody, maintained his reputation as a maestro, and Messrs. Mcintosh aud Ctzinger on tho cornet and clarionet, were one of tho prominent features of tho evening. Messrs.

New York, with twelve head of para Holstein cattle. They came ozer the Northern Pacific and arrived in remarkably fine condition. There are nine heifers and three bulls, tho oldest being two years old and running down to yearlings. The cattle were taken to Mrsner's stable, cor ner of Second and Main streets and coin fotrably stabled. Mr. Stewart looked at tho best herds of Holstein cattle in the east and selected from what he consid ered (and he is certainly a competent judge) tho finest from tho finest herds. Four of tho heifers aro imported. Ex perts in cattle who saw the new arrivals, pronounce them superior to any that nave over before been brongnt to tnis state. Mr. Stewart will take five of tho cattle to add to his fifteen of the same breed in Washington county. Tho re mainder will bo taken by Captain George Flavel to his farm on Clatsop plains. As tho home of the Holstein cattlo is up on tho reclaimed tide landi, it is believed they will thrive bettor near tho ocean thanjin the interior, and Captain Flavel has great hopes for the future of his new venture.

Gladstone, in the house of commons this afternoon, read a telegram dated Saturday last, from Sir Peter Lunisden. Tho telegram staled that Mr. Stephens, member of tho lxun dary commission, had .started for Lon don, bearing with him maps of tho dis puted scene; also a detailed statement of all tho circumstances leading up to and attending the Penjdeh affair. The tele gram also stated that Lurasden himself had forwarded to Earl Granville a state ment showing the actual position of af fairs as they now stand. Government members in the house of commons re ceived this news of the departure of Mr. Stephens for London with evident satis faction. Ritchie, conservative, asked if the government proposed to suspend ne gotiations now in progress with Russia until after the arrival of Mr. Stephens, and Gladstone arose aud made a rrply with a firm and definite "No." Gladstone, bringing up tho subject of a voto of credit of fifty-five million dollars asked for by the government on the army and navy account, said he hoped that the motion to divide the credit would not be passed. The government, he said, would not devote any portion of the money voted for particular purposes for use in the Soudan, bat would reserve discretion to apply money taken for the Soudan ac count for purposes of special prepara tion. He urged that the houo vote the entire $55,000,000 en bios. In answer to questions concerning the Afghanistan question, Gladstone stated that Lumsden had telegraphed tho gov ernment that he was sending one of his staff officers, Captain Stephens, to Lon don with full information relating to General Komaroff's action at Penjdeh in the fight between the Russians and tho Afghans, and that Captain Stephens was personally cognizant of many of the Russian generals' movements, previous to and during the battle, and since its oc currence. Jn the meantime. Mid tue premier "parleviug between England and Russia will be continued."" The proposal to separate the Soudan credit from the credit for special prepa rations wart lejectcd by a vote of 220 against 18o. The house then entered into a commit tee of the whole, and Gladstone proceed ed to explain tho object of the voto of credit. 'J'ho premiers speech indicated that he was suffering much from hoarse ness. The house of commons, without dis cussion, as suggested by Gladstone, voted the entiro credit of $55,000,000 asked by the government. Mr. Edward Temperlv Gourtry, radical member for Sunderland, asked whether tho government would en deavor to have the dispute with Rueaiu referred for arbitrament to tho United States of America. Gladstone answered: "Tho government aro quite sensible of their heavy responsibiht3 io maintain the honor and good faith of their country on the one hand, and on the other to use every moans consistent with honor to avoid war. I can give no more particular reply than this." This utterance was ac cepted as significant and was received with cries of "Hear," "Hear." In moving the vote of credit, Mr. Glad stone said that tho government considers it necessary to have the entire resources of the empire well in hand for use and applioatiou whenever they may bo re quired. Events since the fall of Khar toum has shown that El Mahdi's power has collapsed. England's posse33ion of Khartoum would not put a stop to thu slavo trade, and therefore it- would bo ussless to shed blood nnd treasure in tho Soudan. In regard to the alleged small ness of tho voto ho reminded tho house that it is tho largest that has been asked since the Crimean war, and it is also coincident with the large increases in the array and navy votes. Furthermore, ho said, the case relates primarily to India. In order to fully appreciate t "he amonut entailed it is requisite to know the extent of measures being taken in India. The case is not one of war, actual or porhap-i proximate. He did not feel called on to define tho dogreeof danger, but he would say in regard to the sad contingencj of an outbreak of war, or r. rupture of rela tions with Jtussia, tuat Iter majesty s government has striven to conduct the controversy in such a way tuat if it unhappily ended in violent "rapture they might, at least, bo able to challenge the verdict of civilized mankind as to whether or not they had done all men could do, and had used every just and honorable effort to prevent the plung ing of two such countries into bloodshed and despair. Tho question before the committee, be said, was simple and even narrow, al though an important one. Negotiations continue, but to give parliament partial information would mislead them. The government submitted itscaBO upon facts with which the wholo world is acquainted. There exists abundant cause for the war preparations which aro being carried ou. The starting point was the obligation to tho ameer, which should be fulfilled in no stinted manner. The convention with Russia of March 10 was one which Eng land hoped and believed would bo recog nized as one of the most sacred ever made between two great na tions, and if any deviation occurred there should be a jealous rivalry between tho two nations to sift Co the bottom all that remained in suspense. A bloody engage ment occurred on March 30, showing that one or both failed to fulfill the cov enant. England considered it the duty of both countries to ascertain how the calamity was caused. He would not an ticipate that tho British were right. He felt perfect confidence in the British officers, but he would not assumo that they might not havo been misled. Ho would not say tho government possessed all the facts in the case. They possessed facts which created an impression averse to those formed by the other party to the covenant, but thoy would not deviate from the strictest principlo of justice by anticipating any of the ultimate issues of the fair inquiry they are desirous of prosecuting. The cause of tho collision is perhaps doubtful, but it is certain that the Rus sians were the attacking party and that tho Afghans suffered in life, spirit nnd repute. Knowing that a .blow has been struck at the credit and authority of our ally, we are unable to close the book and say we will not look into it any moro. Wo roust do our best to have right done in tho matter. There is cause for war preparations. He hoped the house would not delay its assent, which would only tend to propagate the belief thero and elsewhere, that thero was some indecis ion in the mind of parliament, whereas he believed that one heart and solo pur pose animated them. He believed that while reserving absolute liberty to judge the conduct of the government, aud to visit them with its consequences, they would go forward to meet the demand of justice and the call of honor, and labor for the purpose of peace. At the conclusion of tho speech, tho delivery of which occupied one hour, the house broke into loud and prolonged cheers. Mr. Gladstone was listened to j wit.h deep attention and silence, and his words created a profound sensation. upiiuon in me toooies 10-nigui is mai Gladstone's speech shows Hint war is in evitable. POSSIBILITIES. A Xeics reporter was tulkin with a prominent railroad gentleman in Port land Tuesday. "How near Is the Cascade division of the Northern Pacific toward comple tion?"
