DUMB SHOW IN ST. PETERSBURG. I.on"dox, Ocl. 27, 1878. Tba leading feature of tbo war news this morning is a confirmation of tho reports current last night in re gard to the now and strange attltndo which Hungary Has taken. The intontiona of the Hungarians cannot be mistaken. The weight of their influence in the afTairs of Austria Is recog nised by the fact that tho Trime Minister fa a Hungarian, and naturally enough the province looka with disfavor upon any schemes for the addition of more Sclavoninn territory. The Hungarians see very eleariy that an alliance with Russia can, in tbeoventof a general war, result only in the addition ol Servia and Bosnia to Austria. This will naturally be the sbaro which Austria will lake If Russia claims Roumanla and Bulgaria. Such an addition would turn over the halanca of power Into Selavio hands Uerr Tlsza, the Hungarian Premlor, has been attempting to defeat the Russian alliance. His course hss so compromised Coant Andrassy, Austrian Minister ol Foreign Aflalra, thst his retirement msy be necessary. The Austrian and German newspapers arc quarrelling over the coarse of Hangary. The official government journal of Berlin declares that ? the attitude of the Hungarian press only tends to confirm Germany's cautious reserve and to Justify its expediency." TUB DESPAIR IK SERVIA. The depression at Belgrade continues, but tho be ginning ol the end seems near. If the Rosso-Servian army is left unassisted the Turks will as suredly reach Belgrade. They are advancing slowly and Irresistibly. However, unless the armistice, now reported to be concluded, Is carried ioto effect General Tchernayeff will certainly fight to tho last. There Is scarcely any reason to doubt that the Servian govern . mens have lost all control over General TobernayefT, who Is completely at variance with the Minister of Var. In regard to tho rumors of a crisis, doubtless tho Ministers would gladly resign if Prince Milan would accept their resignation, and if they cou'd got others to replace them. But these difficulties mako a change of Ministry Impossible. It is gensrslly expected in Belgrade that Servia will be created a kingdom; but this anticipation only luereasca the growing dread of Russian patronage among the better class of Servians Only thirty Russians arrived at tho Servian capital yes terday. the pall op djuxisI The capture of DJunla by the Turks Is confirmed. Tho 7is.es' correspondent gtvos a circumstantial narrative of the five days' strngglo from the 19th to the 23d, inclueive, and saye it waa unquestiona bly the greatest succoss during the campaign. In consequence of tnelr defeat tho main por tton of the Sorvlan army hae withdrawn to Dellgrad j hat a part at least of Horvatovitch's forces has been cut off In tho direction of Kruscvac, wbonco it tan. however, rctroat by tho Servian Morava to Slatatz. It is not known whether tho Servians ittll hold on to the left bank ot the Morava; but this seems to be immaterlaL They cannot make a stand there, as they would bo liable to be cut off from the river and forced into the angle formed by the confluenco of the two branches of the Morava. Unless an armtstico is concludtd the Servians must move back tlieir defonsivo lino from Alcxinatz ana Dellgrad to Paratkln and Cuprlja, which would open the Morava Valley with all Its rosources to tho Turks. RUSSIA TO THE SULTAM. The text of General Iguana's address to tho Sultan upon presenting his credentials was published in Constantinople yesterday. The Russian Ambassador said the Czar understood the difficulties of the situation, and nlthongh he did not dissimulate his sympathy for Turkoy's Slavonic subjects, bo trusted existing difficulties would bs removed, so that the Sultan might Improve the condition of his subjecta The Saltan replied In a similarly conciliatory strain. He hoped the Czar would contribute toward facilitat ing reforms. Thero Is reason to bclievo that Russia, being herself averse to war, is endeavoring to induce Greece and Roumanla to take the field. They, howover, hesitate. TUB SERVIAN REBELLION. An official Servian bulletin posted at Belgrade states thst the Turks on Tuesday made a desperate attempt to break General Xovoseloff's lines, but were repulsed with great slaughter. General NovoselolT has asked for relnforcomcnts lor the Servian army of the Ibar and Colonel Becker has been ordered there with fresh troops. Fighting continues around Alexlnatz and Dellgrad. The alarming reports, such as those of the concen tration of large forces on tho Turkish frontier and the calling out or the reserves, arc dentod from St. I'etcrs burg. The army Is not yet on a war footinp. Only preliminary measures have been taken, so that in caso of need a considerable sruiy could bo tu readiness with out delay. It is reported from Nisch that the Servians on tbo 21st evacuated Kaon Ik after partly destroying iho placo. The Turks now bold the town and have found valuab'c booty thore.

Moukhter Pacha will shortly withdraw to Treblnje unless he is cut off by tho Montenegrins. The plain around Trcbioje is completely lloodud. Dervish Pacha's army is thoroughly demoralized. All toe Catholic Albanians, who joined the Turkish itandard. have returned lo their homes and rcluao to relinquish the arms supplied them by the Turks.

THE ARMISTICE. It Is now bolleved in f.ondon that the six weeka' armistice has been secured, and that a prospect of its prolongation by subsequent .arrangement exists.

The steamer Simon Bolivar, which reached Barran qullla on October 4, with passengers and cargo, was fired Into off Narc, and had one man killed. The steamer General Nicto, formerly the Veogoeschea, armed by the government at Barranqullla and placed under the command of a North American, appeared upon the scene and bore the brunt of the battle, driving the enemy Irom their intrench mcnts, after four hours' cannonading.

Details of an Exciting and Sue cessfUl Operation. PEACE SECURED AT STANDING ROCK. Bismabck. D. T., Oct. 28, 1878. A Standing Rock letter of the 2oth gives iuo follow ing account ol the dicarmiog or tbe Indiana at that agency yesterday, h was really one ol tbe most ex citing days erer witnessed at tula agency. Rumors to the elect tbat tbe .Seventh cavalry were coming down to assist in disarming and dismounting the Indiana e reached us early last week, but were gen erally discredited until Sunday morning last, when It came known that troops were approaching from above on both sides of the river. We were not long la drawing our own inferences Irom the above fact, and It proved in the end that tbe Indians were also pretty well mlormod on the same subject, UOVEMSNT or TUB TROOPS. At half-past two a lice was quietly formod >v tbo battalion under command of Colonel Poland tor dreas parade, after which the men changed their cartridge boxes lor the llola belt and were ready and eager for soy duty that might be required of them, particularly that ol hunting Indians. And right hero lot me aay that no floor body of men can bo found In tbe department than tbo nino com panlea stationed at this point under General Carlin'a command, as tho lino was lormiug for parado Gen eral Carllo, accompanied by an aid, rodo out to meet General Terry ana tbo column of cavalry approaching on the west side, which was mot near tbo Standing Rock, two and a bait miles irom the agency. thb disarming commenced. In tbe meantime Colonel Johnston with blscompany of tho First infantry had moved up to Wolf Necklace s camp, and the work of disarming his band and taking in the ponies, such aa wero within reach, was soon accomplished. General Carlin, alter seeing tho work of disarming Woll Necklace's band well under way, at onco rode hack to the post and with the other eight companies of Infantry, comprising the garrlaon, pro ceeded rapidly below to tbe Black Feci and Uncpapa camps. At tnia time the view obtained on either side of the river was exciting aa well aa extremely interest tng. The column on the east side, consisting of eight companies ot the Seventh cavalry and throe of Inlan try, under General Sturgla, was alao evidently nearly at hand. ALARM OF THI INDIANS. Both Indiana and pcniea could be seen fleeing over the hlufls In every direction. On the west side General Terry had placed the entire charge of uffalra ia tbe hands of General Carlin, who with Lieutenant Roach and his detachment ol scoots, had ridden rapidly down to Grasses camp. The Indians were la s high state of alarm and excito ment and were running constantly from their lodges into the timber and thick undorbrush back of iboir camp. Colonel Reno, with his four companies ol the Seventh cavalry, rodo down rapidly from above the agency, and, passing about a mile to the rear ol itho post, hastened to placo nimself both below and be tween the Indian camps and the bluffs, and In doing ?o prevented several parties ol Indians with ponies Irom oscaping. THK INDIANS Ql'IKTKD. As soon as possible General Carlin endeavored to quiet tbe alarm of the Indiana in camp by assuring them that they would receive no personal barm tbem aelvoa, but they must give un all ibeir arms and ponies, and tbat It must be dono at once, without tbe icast delay. An Indian Is, however, never sbio to comprehend or understand without lime lor study or thought and an opportunity lor talk, and so it proved at this time. It was already getting late and tha aun was last sinking behind the hills in the west. siarchixg tur lodges. The Infantry under Colonel Poland bad by thla time arrived, and been deployed aa skirmishers In resr of tbo camp in a siuglo line nearly a mile In extent. General Carlin at once gave orders for this line to ad vance, and in passing tnrough to search every lodge carefully for arma and to alterward scour tbe under, bruah and timber. No resistance ol any kind was at tempted, and in fact It would havs been entirely use less. ATTEMPTS AT ESCAPE. It frequently happened, in passing through tbe tim ber, one or two men would run unetpectedly upon a party ol Indians crouching la the underbrush with their rides. It needed but the crack of one rifle to start the blaze, but it woutd have ended in this in stance in the wiping out ot Indians at tnis agency. It was dark wben the work on the weal side wsa finished and tbe command relnrnod lo the post, Colonel Reno with his battalion of cavalry goiog into camp near the garrison on the east side. It was late wben General Storgla got op. and dark came on before ho was able to complete the search of all the camps. He went Into camp nearly opposite tbe poet, and on Monday sent out a detachment that secured quite a number el ponies end some few arms. TALE TO THB CHIRPS. General Terry about the same time had a short talk with tome few principal chiefs at the post. It was short and concise, and no opportunity was glren for the Indians to reply. They were told by the General that tbe authorittea at Washington had decided that all Indiana at the agencies mast be deprived of their arms and ponies, and that such as had not already been found must bo brought In aud given up. Several Indians offered to go out and bring in their herds, and quite a number have sinco been brought In. POMIIM SSCl-BBD. At tills time probably 500 or 800 ponies have been socured. This is but a small portion of tbe poniea. Tbe others are either out hording some distance, as Is their custom, or have been driven out ou tbs supposition tbat they were to be deprived of tbem entirely I think tbe arms of all kinds tbat hava been found at this agency will not exceed 100 pieces. This Inclndes rifles, shot guns, revolvers and sabres. Even but a very small proportion are serviceable rifles It can readily be imagined what has becomo of tbe others that bave not been found. There le, however, no dan ger of a..y more arms being carried by Indiana at tbls agency. The rifles and ponies they have saved tbey will take good caro to kaep out of the way for some tlmo to come. The. price oj Hie Herald to-day and henceforth will be three cents. AN OFFICER S ACCOUNT OF THE AFFAIR AT BTAN'DIXQ ROCK. Bismarck, D.

Uenncrs, James Pickett and Sarah Brown alias ?'Dutch Sal," were given a hearing to-day ou the charge of aiding and abetting in the abduction of Cbarlea Brewster Ross. The partios wore . arrested In Harrlsburg. The principal wit ness against them was Nelson Parker, a colored man. He Identified Banner's handwriting, and these letters were Introduced. In these lettsra al lusion Is made to a new "Jewel," tbe ownor of whieh would be obliged to come down handsomoly, in order to receive it. Mosher and Douglas are spoken of as running a powder wagon. The death of Mosher is referred to, and tbe "Jewel" is reported sere. The "Jewel" alluded to is believed to roprcsent the lost boy. Anotbor letter, dated Reading, and addressed to rarah Brown, "Go home; burn and destroy every one of thoae clothes of the babe's. Randolph is caught and may squeal on us." Still another letter, lound in the Harrisburg house, speaks of Wcslervelt'a sentence. Parker was serving an imprisonment in tbo Penitentiary bere when tbo abductiou took placo. He knew Benners long before that, and tbe latter bad written him letters ot comfort, promising to aid In getting him out. This is how ha identtlled the letters found in the Harrlsburg bouso. All the evidence was in the lorrn of bints, dark ldti ?nations, Ac., but nothing explicit was proved. Tbo prisoneis, however, were all commltlod for trial. The matter is being further investigated. ILLICIT WHISKEY CASE. I A CBABOX OX STUPINDUOUS FRAUDS UPON THE BF. VENUE. Dss Mourns, Iowa, Oel. 20, 1870. The United Stales Clrouti Court, Judge Dillon pre* Biding, bu boon engaged since tbe 10th mat. in trying one of tbe most important whiskey suits ever brought In this country. In 1865 J. A. Ubomberg, a saloon keeper of Dubuquo, started a distillery thero. In the winter of 1865 ho paid an assessment of $190,000 on account of frauds In 1874 he was assessed the sum of $750,000, which ho refused lo pay. This suit Is brought to rocover the amount of bis bonds, $110,000. Tbe'government Is represented by United States Dis trict Attorney Colonol Lane, ol Davenport, and Colonel Henderson, of Dubuque.

From one o'clock yesterday nntil on* this morning tho Academy of Music was crowded, with a short In termission, on tbe occasion of tbe annual benefit of tbe Roman Catholic orphan asylums of New York city. This Is an event which Is always generously sustained. The actors, who belong to the most liberal of the professions volunteered with their accustomed generosity, and every theatre in the city was represented. Not! lo be invidious, we would mention Mr. W. R. Floyd, tho manager; Mr. Edward Arnott, of Wallack's; Mr. Adolph Sobst, who sang "Non over" excell'nlly; Mr. Tony Pastor, who appeared in his budget of fun; bam Devere, with bis banjo; the One Jap anese balancers, Satsutna and the last of the little "All Rights;" Miss Jennie Hughes, who Introduced Into her serio-comic melodies a telling bit in regard to the reduction of the price or tbe HaaAi.n; Mr. Billy Harry, Messrs. Harry and John Kcrnell, the Empire Children and tbe entire company of Kelly k Leon'e Minstrels. "Naval Engagements" was also played by some admirable comedians, but to mention all who appeared would occupy as much space as the entertainment did lime. All ol the perform ers volunteered, and they bad the reward wbicn comes from a generous action and tbe appreciation and ap plause of tbe public. Tbe scenery was admirable, but, as usual, ralber con fused. Tbe Irishmen appeared in Venice and instead of singing a gondola air. Indulged in their native oreek. Tbe Japanese performed their extraordinary feats in the Colosseum at Rome, and the banjo players appeared on tbe portico of the Parthenon. In the meanwhile the Tildcn procession was marching outaldo of tbe Academy, but tho political array withdrew very lew people irom tbts line and versaltio entertainment. 8TEIKWAX BALL -THEODORE THOMAS FIRST PUBLIC REHEARSAL. Stelnway Hall was crowded yesterday afternoon oa tbe occasion of the flrst public rehearsal for Theodore Thomas' symphony concerts. The programme con sisted of only three works?the eighth symphony of Beethoven. Scoubert'a fantasia, and tbe dramatio symphony, "Romeo end Jnliet," by Hector Berlioz. Yet what works they were! The andience sat spell bound Irom two P. M. antil hail-past Ave P. M. Can any stronger proof bo glren of tbe musical appreciation of the metropolitan public in tbe line of the highest forms ol tho divine art? The Hoetlmren symphony was given with that care and tenderness of expression that from only such a grand orchestra could sucn suc cessful results be obtained. Mme. Madeline Schiller appeared to tbe most favorable advantage in Liszt's well known arrangement lor piano and orehoatra ot Schubert's piuuo fantasia in C, opus 15. The wors in its original form is wry in tricate, and It calls for digital power that does not always belong to the fiugorsof a lady. In the Irnine of orchestration which I.isit bsa thrown around It the labor ol the pianist is considerably increased. Yet on tbls occasion Mme. Schiller gained the most emphatic success that has ever fallen to ber lot In New Tork. We can only speak in detail regarding this aucress on Saturday night. Poor Hector Berlioz! Unappreciated when alive, and even now rejected by Wagner, although he was the father, the progenlator ol tho y.uknhjt school, Berlioz has occupied lor a long time, in Europe as well as in America, a position of second fiddle. Listen to the inspired utterances of one ol tbe friends of Herlloz:?"Hector Berlioz ts a man of wonderful, almost tropical, laney; a born orchestral mind, and decidedly tbe most interesting among mnsieiana Theoretically passionate, dreamily soft, tpiriturile. Such is Berlioz. sometimes ha sounds like tailing stars, still aa thought; then like a polonaise of wildfire: then like a May fly's concerto; or be rushes like the sen; the earth trembles under tbls orchestra, and bot red clouds ascend and He over the instrument* like volcanic halos." The Cyclopa becomes an elf. It Is not tho Polyphemus ol "Arisen-! tislntea" attuning lils terrible tones lo the love notes of the pipe, scaring tbe object ot his affection in tbe woods, -'Oh, rnddfer than tbe cherry." It Is an entomological orchestra, such as one may hear in tno grass at hay time, when gnats and grasshoppers are around him. The united airings are lixe spiders' webs, mo enchaining and yet so subtle. The scberzo Is tbe impersoniiicatlon ol eltln poetry. There Is much to say about lhe grand love (balcony) scene and th# finale. The platean ol rock and the pencil ot lightning req uisite lor the sketcberol Beethoven?such, In a tniloer b>rm, aro demanded from the annotsior ol Berlioz. Yet Wagner refuses to-day to acknowledge tho source whenco he drew his instrumental inspiration. Mast bows revorently helore the shrine of the great French composer.
