The military measures of Ausiria have
been taken with a view to obviate all mis,
understanding in reference to the provinces
bordering on Austria, and which the pas
sage of the Danube makes necessary for the
protection of Austrian interests.
In the vicinity of Cottinje it is stated that
the Turkish losses on Sunday were simply
incalculable, the column marching down the
valley towards Spuz being exposed during
the outire day to the fire of the Russian ar
tillery and rifles.
The Turks are reported as concentrating
their forces on the lower Danube, leaving
Widdeu isolated. The fall of llitcha and
Sufina is locked for, as the Turkish forces
are cut off from communication and rein
forcements.
Accounts of a terrible wind and rain
storm in Missonri, Iowa, Illinois and Michi
gan have been received from Chicago. It
struck that city yesterday aftcrnooD, and
did considerable damage.
The fire fiend has held high carnival at
Marblehead. It commenced in rear of the
Marblehead Hotel and spread until fifteen
acres of buildings, including the majority
of the shoe factories, were destroyed.
A general movement of Russian troops
has commenced simultaneously with the
crossing of tho Danube, the army going
down to the Danube between Turna Magu-
reli and Simnitzs.
Russian agents have been dispatched to
Hamburg, Bremen and the United States
to enlist sailors for the Russian navy, and
i< is stated that five new men-of-war are
about being launched at Cronstadt.
A report is circulated that the Prince of
Montenegro has been killed by his infu
riated soldiers in consequence of his recent
serious defeats.
President MacVIahon has assured a dele
gation of manufacturers that he will retain
his office until 1880, and be responsible for
order at home and peace abroad.
Austria and England have exchanged
notes as to the measures of preparation de
cided on by the respective governments in
view of the present Eastern war.
Tho Grand Duke Alexis has become re
conciled with his distinguished parent, who
has promoted him from the rank of Major
to that of General.
The Montenegrins have suffered severely
in the short but decisive campaign, and it
is said that they have lost almost one-
seventh of their forces.
The passage of the Danube was effected
without serious opposition from the Turks,
who have evidently taken up their last de
fence in the natural line of the Balkan range.
The Turkish Chamber has decided to con
tinue tho war a V ouirance, which means to
the death.
Dervish Pasha attacked the Russians in
vesting Batoum and drove them from tho
heights.
General Sherman instructs General Mc
Dowell to pursue tho hostilo Indians and
punish them wherever caught.
The news of the passage of the Danube
ha3 strenghtened the Greek war greatly.
Robert Dale Owen.
A telegraphic dispatch announces the
death of Robert Dale Owen, a man who
has occupied a considerable space in
American annals, not only as a scientist
but more especially as a representative of
the doctrine of Spiritualism. H9 was the
son of Robert J. Owen, an English social
reformer, and was horn in Glasgow in
1801. In 1823 he accompanied his father
to America, and for some time lived with
the New Harmony Social Community.
He afterwards, in partnership with Miss
Frances Wright, published the Free En-
fjuircr, which continued in existence
three years.
He was elected to Congress in 1843 and
served until 1847, and introduced the bill
organizing the Smithsonian Institute, of
which he became one of the regents
and Chairman of the Building Com
mittee. His life was an active one, and
notably prominent was his celebrated
discussion with Horace Greeley on the
subject of divorce, which was printed in
pamphlet form and obtained a circula
tion of sixty thousand copies. His other
literary, scientific and political labors are
embraced in “An Outline of the System
of Education in New Lanark,” “Discus
sion with Origen Bachelor on the Person
ality of God and the Authenticity of the
Bible,” “Moral Philosophy,” “Pocahon
tas,” a historical drama, “Hints on Public
Architecture,” “Footfalls on the Boundary
of Another World," “The Wrong of
Slavery and the Right of Emancipation,”
“Beyond the Breakers,” a novel. During
the civil war he published various letters
to President Lincoln and his Cabinet,
advocating the policy of emancipating
the slaves, which policy was adopted by
President Lincoln. He died at Lake
George, N. Y., yesterday, aged seventy-
six years.
The trouble with the Idaho Indians has
arisen chiefly from the attempt of the
government to put Joseph’s band of Nez
Perces on a reservation. The Indians,
however, had agreed to go, and had in
part selected their land, when one of
their number was shot, without excuse,
by a white man, and all attempts to se
cure the legal punishment of the mur
derer had failed. This was the situation
at last advices received by the Indian
Bureau.
The increasing business of the New
York Elevated Railway Company, of
which Cyrus W, Field is President, is
pointed at as proof of the growing favor
with which the public regard these wrial
highways. The number of passeDgera.
carried during May, 1875, was 74,721;
during May, 1876, 180,617, and during
May, 1877, 293,792. Not a life has been
lost nor a passenger seriously injured on
tho road during these three years.

It is rumored in government circles
that suits are about to be brought by cer
tain national banks against one of the
members of the syndicate which took
the recent loan, in order to compel a
division of the profits on the 4} per cent,
loan contracts. There 6oems to be some
foundation for these rumors, which point
to a New York houso as the defendant,
and to New York banks as the plaintiffs.
The Cincinnati beer brewers are deter
mined that the price of beer shall not be
reduced. A number of saloon keepers are
in favor of selling two glasses of tho
foaming beverage for five cents, but the
manufacturers of tho article propose to
keep up the price by charging them
twelve dollars instead of ten dollars a
barrel for the innocent refreshment.
Secretary Sherman has managed to
eate a great deal of doubt and uncer-
,inty in business circles with his unex-
ained preparations for resumption. The
ew York Bulletin even declares that “if
3 persists in enforcing a material con-
action of legal tenders, there are no
jssible means of averting a general
Fouuth or Jolt Flees.—It is said that
New York had ninety-three fires last
Fourth of July, all from fireworks. The
New York Herald remarks that Fourth of
July celebrations here cost more than the
whole revolutionary war.
Why the South Should Continue Solid.
There is nothing which the ene
mies of the South so much dread aB
that she may remain united in senti
ment and present a solid front to her po
litical foes. This “solid South” is, in
deed, the great bugbear of Radicalism,
for it presents a formidable obstacle to the
future success of that party, and, while it
continues, effectually prevents the resto
ration of power to the hands of her ene
mies. The solidity of the South is,
in a word, the great bulwark of
her security, a fact the Radi
cals know and appreciate, and there
is nothing which would gratify them so
much as to see this solidity broken, the
South divided and disrupted, and thus
tho great obstacle in the way of their
future schemes of usurpation, spoliation
and aggression forever removed.
It is to bring about such a result, there
fore, that the Radicals are straining
every nerve. Having attempted, by
raising the cry of “solidSouth,” to array
against her a solid North, and having
failed, a new plan is being tried. After
having wronged and oppressed the South
for years, after having turned her over
mercilessly to the ravages of thieves and
despoilers, now, wonderful to relate,
these, her late enemies, are full of sweet
ness towards her. Having done all that
malice could suggest, or hatred inspire,
against her, it is becoming the custom
for Radicals to declare that no harm was
ever intended by them; that their persecu
tions were only meant as blessings in dis
guise to effect our purification, and that
all the while they entertained towards the
Southern people sentiments of the high
est esteem, and an affeotion passing even
the love of women. Even Mr. Hayes,
who, during years of public life as tho
thrice elected Governor of Ohio, and as a
member of Congress for several terms,
never was heard to raise his voice in
denunciation of the wrongs and out
rages committed against the South, now
comes forward as her particular champion
and special friend.
We hold it to be the only salvation
of the South to remain firm in her
distrust of such transparent hypocrisies,
and to continue “solid” in her attachment
to her principles. She owes this both
to the Democratic party of the country
and to herself.
She owes it first to the Democratic
party of the country. Surely it can
not be forgotten how, in the dark days of
her oppression, when there seemed to be
no end of Radical malignity towards her,
that party unceasingly fought her battles
both on the floor of Congress and through
the public press. When Butler, Blaine
and all the rest of their clique had an
overwhelming majority in the Forty-third
Congress, and were pressing their civil
rights bill, by which they hoped to de
grade her socially, and their force bill by
which they hoped to take away from
her the great writ of habeas corpus,
and binding her hand and foot,
give her over to the tender mercies of an
Executive greedy and anxious to become
her military dictator, who came to her
rescue and actually prevented this last
outrage but the Democratic members of
that Congress? And to what but the ef
forts of that party does the South owe it
to-day that she is loosed from her tram
mels, and can manage her own affairs
without fear of molestation by United
States troop3 ? Truly for the South now
to desert those who stood by her in the
darkest days of her adversity would be
the basest ingratitude.
But she likewise owes it to herself.
Self-defense demands it. Let her bo
sedueed by honied phrases and hypo
critical professions into an abandonment
of Democratic principles, and what will be
the inevitable result? She will not only be
divided herself, hat she will alienate from
her the kind feolings of many of her
staunchest Northern allies. Blaine,Morton
and their band of malignants will reorgan
ize their forces, and, when they see her
split up inlof actions, will possess sufficient
strength to enable them, once more, to
seize upon her, and then carpet baggers,
scalawags, United States Marshals and
soldiers will again be restored to power
and lord it over her with unsparing hand.
And when that happens, who can doubt
that Hayes and his followers, now so
full of pretended good-will for her, will
again applaud, as lustily as they did in
the palmy days of Grantism ?
By all means, then, let the South
be true to herself and remain united.
Such a course is demanded by every con.
sideration of principle and consistency,
as well as of honor and self-protection.
Let her accept the results of the Demo
cratic polioy of Mr. Hayes with thank
fulness; but let her never forget how he
only secured the Presidential chair by
overthrowing the will of the people of
two Southern States, and stealing from
them their electoral vote3. Lat her re
member this, and also recall the fact that
it is due solely to the efforts made in her
cause by tho Democratic party that she
stands at this moment free. Let her
remember also that, as a solid South, she
will be powerful against her enemies,
while divided she will fall an easy prey
to their rapacity and oppression.
The Pbopeb Medium foe Advertising.
—At a late meeting of the stove manufac
turers of the country, at Detroit, the
President denounced the ineffective and
expensive advertising that had been much
indulged in by the trade, the tawdry
lithographs and other sensational ma
chinery, and recommended instead the
more exclusive use of the best newspa
pers. “If we would make the best pos
sible u96 of our money,” he continued,
“we should patronize ably conducted and
responsible newspapers. The newspaper
is immeasurably the best medium open
to oar trade; the most liberal and expert
advertisers testify to its value, and in the
employment of its columns we would fiud
a means of escape from wasteful, undigni
fied and ineffective methods, to which so
maDy resort in their eagerness to secure
attention and patronage.” There are in
dications that, as if by a common in
stinct, these suggestions of experience
and common sense are being adopted by
merchants, manufacturers and other
olasses of the community having occasion
to engage in either purchasing or selling.
Hepworth Dixon told this story to a
Boston gentleman, now visiting London,
who sends it to the Boston Post: “At a
dinner given to President Grant the other
day the Duke of Wellington was present.
‘How many men may your father have
commanded at one time ?’ said the 6x-
President to the Duke. ‘Why,’ said His
Grace, ‘my father at one time had all the
European forces under him.’ ‘How many
might that have been ?’ continued Grant.
‘Well,’ says the Duke, ‘there were 60,000
English, 40,000 Germans, etc., etc.’ ‘Say
200,000 in all, eh?’ (this from the Presi
dent). ‘Yes, about that.’ ‘Well, I guess
I can beat your father then,’ says Grant
triumphantly; ‘I have commanded a
million!’”
Great preparations are being made in
Boston to receive Mr. Hayes on his ap
proaching visit. “He will see for him
self,” says the Boston Journal, “how
cordially his policy, so far as he has been
able to exemplify it during his few months
of office, meets with the approval of the
thinking people of New England.”
An Issue for 1880.
Whatever questions may enter into the
canvass of 1880, one i; sue at least, says
the Baltimore Qazctti, is well defined.
There is to be a deadly war on fraud.
The people will not have forgotten by
that time—they never will forget—that a
minority stole the Presidency and gave
it to a man who was not elected. A plat
form with no other plank than this
ought to attract every man who loves his
country, has a pride in its good name,
and hopes to see it outlive the stain of
fraud. It is a question of constitutional
liberty which is at stake. The same
question was at stake when the electoral
commission was devised. The victorious
people acquiesced in the erection of this
extraordinary tribunal and then submit
ted to its decree, all for the love of coun.
try. There were strong indications that
the contemplated fraud would be carried
as far as inauguration by force, just as the
plans of the Republican party had been
consummated by force in the South.
Whether they were right or wrong, the
real victors yielded in the interests of
peace. But the blow struck at constitu
tional liberty shook the republic to its
foundation. It can hardly survive such
another Bhock. Another snccess of a
like fraud would overturn the doctrine of
the rule of the majority, and future elec
tions for President would become the
dreary farce that the last one was. A
fraud like that is treason, and treason
must be made odious. The par'y which
played the traitor to its country must bo
made to feel the penalty of its crime. Hav
ing lost all claim to confidence, it should
be forced to relax its hold on power. Tue
signs of the times seem to be propitious.
While the sensible men of the country
are yielding a support in all right things
to the product of the monstrous wrong—
willing to get a temporary good out of
bad if possible—there are outgivings of a
well settled purpose to avenge the wrong
when the first lawful and peaceful oppor
tunity shall present itself. We think this
will be more apparent in the fall elec
tions, when there will be uttered a general
and ringing protest against the eight by
seven way of making a President. If from
now on the people, as we expect they will,
embrace every opportunity to denounce
the crime against liberty, the instigators,
aiders and abettors of that crime will
be already defeated when they go before
the country in 1880, and in that contest
they will be crashed between the mill
stones of popular indignation and a long
suppressed wrath. The iron hand of
justice will strike them to the ground. If
freedom loving Americans fail in their
duty, the republic will have been a dis
astrous experiment and constitutional
liberty a delus on. “The pathway to
fraudulent elections is the highway to
national death. If the republic is to en
dure, we have looked for the last time
upon the inauguration of a national ex
ecutive who was not elected.”
Grant has written a letter to his friend
Mr. G. Washington Childs, A. M., of
Philadelphia, which bears in every line
the characteristics of its author’s style.
He alludes to his trip across the
ocean, how he escaped sea-sickness,
how he was received with distin
guished honor, etc., and concludes:
“I have written very hastily, and a good
deal at length, but I trust this will not
bore you. Had I written for publica
tion, I should have taken more pains.’
Now, no one knew better than did
Gen. Grant, when he wrote that letter, that
Mr. G. Washington Childs, A. M., would
rush into print with it just as soou as it
was received. He know that the tempts
tion for toadyism would be too great for
that gentleman to resist. That conclud
ing remark of his then was evidently
penned, simply and solely that he might
induce the reading public to overlook
glaring deficiencies in his composition,
which he knew existed, but which he did
not know how to correct. It very much
resembles the old familiar conclusion, so
generally adopted by the illiterate, “Ex
euse haste and a bad pen.”
Cutting Down Salabies.—The Gov
ernor of New York has approved a bill
passed by the Legislature of that State
which provides that if the common coun
cil of Brooklyn shall fail to make reduc
tions in the salaries of the officials of that
city, then the following among other
changes in the salaries shall take place:
The Mayor’s salary shall be reduced from
$10,000 to $6,000; Comptroller, from
$10,000 to $6,000; Corporation Counsel,
from $10,000 to $6,000; City Treasurer,
from $7,000 to $4,000; Auditor, from
$5,000 to $3,500; Collector of Taxes,
from $7,000 to $5,000; Registrar of Ar
rears, from $5,000 to $4,000; President cf
the Board of Assessors, from $5,000 to
$3,500, and all others in like proportion.
These changes will save the city of
Brooklyn an annual expenditure in sala
ries of about $45,000. Policemen here
after appointed are to receive $850 per
annum, which may be increased from
time to time for meritorious service to
$1,100 and no more.
Governor Hampton made a good
Epeech at Auburn, but he neglected to ex
plain the dull-headed stupidity of the
South Carolina “first families” in refus
ing social courtesies to Chief Justice
Waite and his family during the session
of the court when the Eilenton cases
were tried. He would have performed a
useful and grateful service had he told us
the difference between “chivalry” and
boorishness.—New York Tribune.
No doubt the Tribune would be greatly
edified if some Southern gentleman would
oondescend to give it instructions in chiv
alry, a subject of which it is in utter igne
ranee. The same remark does not apply,
however, to boorishness, for the Tribune
constantly shows that on that point at
least it is perfectly at home. Neverthe
less, it might have saved its ill-natured
attempt to cast a slur on South Carolina,
and at the same time not have exposed
its contemptible jealousy towards its bet
ters, if it had read Chief Justice Waite’s
denial of the Yankee rumor that he had
been treated with discourtesy in Charles
ton, before it published its item.
Regarding War with Mexico.
A good deal of discussion has resulted
from the frequency of Mexioan raids
across the Rio Grande into our Texas
border and tho recent orders issued from
the War Department to General Ord in
consequence. The prospect of our be -
ing embroiled in a general war with
Mexico and the effect thereof has been
freely considered, and many opinions pro
and con have been expressed in the public
journals. Many believe that it is the
design of the administration to provoke
hostilities, and a New York paper boldly
asserts that it knows it is the object of
the government to briDg on a conflict in
order that it may seize upon, and annex
to the United States, the five northern
Mexican States.
A Washington special, however, em
phatically denies the report, and says that
both Mr. Hayes and Mr. Evarts declare
that there is no foundation for these war
rumors, and that the orders to General
Ord meant nothing, more nor less, than
that he should nse every available means
at his disposal to protect the frontier and
pnnish the maranders.

There is talk among the New York He
brews of opening subscriptions forbuild-
ing as grand a hotel at Saratoga as that
from which they are now exclnded.
Meanwhile, as an additional evidence of
the feeling that exists in certain quarters
on the subject, it may be mentioned that
double-leaded advertisements appear un
der the “Bankiffg and Financial” head of
most of the city journals,announcing (hat
“certificates of baptism in the Stewart
Methodist Episcopal Chnrch, at Garden
City, seonring for the summer mouths

Saratoga, can be had for five dollars.

With the suggestion that the whole
world has an interest in the struggle in
Cuba, on the score of humanity, the Chi
cago Tribune mentions that “this country
has a special interest in that neighboring
territory, which might and ought to be of
mutual commercial advantage with the
United States, thus devasted and plun
dered from year to year. It will not be
much longer before the inquiry will be
made by this aud other governments in
earnest whether Spain has not demonstra
ted her incapacity to rule nnd guarantee
a peaceful govemm :nt in Cuba.”
It is an old saying that “put a beggar
on horseback and he will ride to —”
yon know where. It is equally true that
if you moke a tanner a “sovereign” he
will expose his vanity. General Grant,
unable to resist the temptation to make
a ridiculous spectacle of himself before
the English people, appeared in full uni
form at tho opera in London on Friday
night last. Tho English claim that they
are honoring the American Repnblie by
their attentions to General Grant. If so,
they are doing what General Grant is not
doing.
Cutting Down Expenses.—Postmaster
Snowden, of Philadelphia, has received
orders from the Postmaster General to
make a reduction of five per cent, in the
salaries of employees in the post office,
or to reduce the numerical force of the
office one-twelfth. The reason for the
order is that the appropriation for the
department is insufficient.

The letter recently written by Secretary
Sherman relative to the payment of the
4 per ceut. bonds in gold, is accepted as
decisive of tho financial policy of the ad
ministration. Mr. Hayes is reported as
favoring the restoration of silver to the
dignity of a legal tender, but beyond
that point he will not go, but will feel
compelled to veto any bill which pro
vides for the payment of the public debt
in silver. If this be true, it is con
clusive proof that Hayes has gone over
bodily to the bondholders.
The report of the fire insurance busi
ness of New York for the year 1876 shows
that the thirty- nine New York companies
engaged lost $538,066. These compa
nies, notwithstanding their losses, paid
dividends to their stockholders, using for
that purpose their surplus, when they
had any, and their capital when they
had no surplus. This sad state of affairs
has been brought about by competition
between the companies, in imitation of
the railroad war.
New devices for coins have been pre
pared at the Philadelphia mint, the ob
ject of which is to make the workman
ship so fine that counterfeiting will be
rendered more difficult than at present.
No action will be taken regarding the
new coins until Congress takes definite
action on the silver question. A die is
also being prepared for a $50 gold coin,
which, it is said, will bs the largest gold
piece ever struck in any country.
While the New York Evening Post
holds that a “solid South,” in the eense
in which that phrase has been used, is
not a desirable or wholesome thing, it
says : “The more solid the South and
the North and the whole country can be
made in support of (he broadly patriotic
principles laid down in Gov. Hampton’s
speech, the better it will be for States
and country and people.”
Idaho is the theatre of an uprising

How Women Dbess in Persia.—A few
women were seen. We met one sitting
astride on horseback, as all Eastern wo
men ride. We believe them to be wo
men because of their costume and size;
but we can see no part of them, not
even a hand or an eye. They are shroud
ed from the head to the knees in a cotton
or silk sheet of dark blue or black—the
chudder, it is called, which passes over
the head and is held with the hands
around and about the body. Over the
ebudder is tied around the head a yard-
long veil of white cotton or linen, in
which before the eyes a piece of open
work about the sizs of a finger, whiefi is
their only lookout and ventilator. The
veil passes under the chudder at the chin.
Every woman before going out of doors
puts ou a pair of trowsers, generally of
the same stuff aod color of the chudder,
and thus her outdoor seclusion and dis
guise are complete. Her husband could
not recognize her in the street. In this
costume Mohammedan women grope
their way about the towns of Persia.
Their trousers are tightly bound about
the ankles above their colored stockings
which are invariably of home mauufac -
tnre; and slippers with no covering for
the heel, complete the unsightly, un
wholesome apparel of those uncomforta
ble victims of the Persian reading of the
Koran.—Arnold’s "■Through Persia by
Caravan.”
A party of trout fishers camping near
Lyons Dam a few days since witnessed a
very novel incident. A huge rattlesnake
was attempting to swallow a somewhat
diminutive homed toad, and seemed
likely to succeed if given sufficient time.
The hind lags of the toad protruded
from the saliva flecked jaws of the snake,
aud were occasionally agitated with a
convulsive movement, as if the little ani
mal was impatient of the delay in going
down the reptile’s throat. Just as the
legs were disappearing the body of the
snake, just behind its villainous-looking
head, began to swell; its eyes began to
bulge, aud its spirits seemed troubled.
The parties watching the process of mas
tication then became aware that the
plucky little toad was tired of being in
the rattlesnake’s jaws and wanted to get
out. The swelling continued, and the
snake squirmed until the four little horns
which formed th9 crest of the toad's
back burst through the scales of the snake.
The snake floundered and wriggled in
agony until he was dead, when the toad
withdrew from his jaws and quietly hop
ped away .— Union (Cal) Democrat.
Dam Pedro, of Brazil, is, at home, the
most accessible of sovereigns. On a cer
tain day in the week he receives at his
palace in Bio.anybody who chooses to
come. His visitors await him in a long
gallery, through which he walks at a given
hour. Each explains his business, and
the Emperor, who rapidly seizes the
points of each recital, responds briefly in
the language of the person who addresses
him. He has a long memory, and he is
never known to promise anything which
he does not fulfill. It is related that
when the Legislative Chambers wished to
raise the amount of the Emperor’s per
sonal bndget, Dorn Pedro refused it,
afraid of too heavily weighing upon the
revenues of his country.
Losdox, Juno 25.—A dispatch to the
Standard from Constantinople via Athens,
says : “The Chamber of Deputies in secret
session has voted lor a continuance of the
war al outrance, even if all Eiropa combines
against Turkey.”
A telegram to the Standard from Constan
tinople direct asserts that Dervish Pasha on
Saturday attacked the Russians investing
Batoum, aud drove them from the heights.
The Standard's Vienna correspondent
says : “It is stated that notes have been
exchanged between Austria and England as
to the character aud significance of the
measures of preparation decided upon by
these two States.”
The limes’Athens dispatch says: “News
of the passage of the Danube has strength
ened the war pariv. A battery of mountain
artillery has already left for Lnnia, on the
frontier, and another will leave immediately
for Kuravanser. There is a general move
ment of troops.”
The Times' correspondent at Cattinje tele
graphs as follows : “The Turkish losses are
absolutely incalculable. All Sunday after
noon the artillery and rifloghave been firing
on their column as it moves down the valley.
The pursuit will be keptup until the column
reaches the protection of the guns of Spaz,
while it has still to run the gauntlet of Pla-
miua'z’s division at Murtinitza.”

says the Montenegrins are said to havo lost
almost one-sevonth of their forces, especial
ly the insurgent bands, who appear to have
Buffered very severely in numbers. The Mon
tenegrins aro beginning to cross over to
Cattaro and Bains. so that it has been
thought advisable to strengthen the cordon
along the frontier.
The Daily Hews’ Ibrail correspondent,
telegraphiug Friday, sends long details ex
plaining how the crossing of the Danube was
effected. The Russians at Ibrail completed
the bridge, undistutbod by the Turks.
Every one understood on Thursday that tho
crossing was postponed, b ith ou account of
the delay in the Czar’s arrival aud because
a large force of Turkish troops had been
discorared iu ambush not far from tho
bridge. However, Gen. Zimmermann sud
denly disappeared from Ibrail during tho
night. This morning a little after day
break tho poop!o of Ibrail were awakened
by the Bound of artillery and musketry oa
the other side of the river, showing that the
Danube must beerossod. General Zimmer
mann had goac to Galatz, and crossed the
Danube with two regimen's of infantry aDd
a proportionate amount of artillery aud cav
alry in a number or boats, towed over by
steam launches. Tho distance traversed iu
boats seems to havo been over three milos.
The Turks seem to havo made a very stub
born resistance.
London, June 25.—Tho latest advices from
the Danube show the same bloody, but no
serions or determined opposition to the
crossing, either at Ibrail or Galatz.
London, June 25.—A special dispatch
from Bucharest to the Times, dated Sunday,
says: “Preliminary operations on the Danube
have commenced in earnest. Tho bom
bardment continues along the whole line to
day, including the -batteries at Olienitza,
Beket, Grahova and Kalafat. The Turks
are reported to be preparing to concentrate
their forces on the lower Danube and
fortresses forming the quadrilateral—
Rustchuk, Silestria, Shurnla and Var
na, leaving the Widdeu force isola
ted in tho Djbrudscha. Tho fall of
Tultclia aud Suliua cauuot be far distant,
as the Turkish forces occupying these points
are cut off from the lines of communication
and reinforcement.
A special dispatch from Vienna to the
News confirms the foregoing, and says
that one Russian division will march
aiong the Danube to Ezeruavoda
where tho railway for Kustendjio begius,
while another division will turn southeast
into the interior of Dobrudscha aud threat
en the garrisons of Isaktclii aud Tultclia.
[Note.—The Times' telegram announc
ing the evacuation of Tultclia and Isaktach
was subsequent to this, which, however,
shows that the news is likely to be true,
The News’ Vienna dispatch also says tho
next crossing will probably ho at Turna
Maguerell in a few days. Thas the Rus
sians can outflank from two sites at least
two strong fortresses of the quadrilateral
of Rustchuk, Silestria, Varua and Shumla,
besides cutting tho connections ofShnmla.j
The Times in a leading article, comment
ing on tho correspondence between Prince
Gortschakoff aud Eirl Derby, published on
Saturday, says : “Frankness has not been
mot by frankness, and the reault is a con
viction that the war for which we may hope
the Bpeediest termination, onght not to on-
danger the good relations between England
and Russia.”
A Vienna dispatch iu the second edition
of the Standard says it is reported that tho
Prince of Montenegro has been killed by
his infuriated solders, iu oonsequcnco of re
cent serions de-feats. The report is uncon
firmed, but Prince Nichloas’ whereabouts
has been unknown for a week.
London, June 25.—The Reuter Telegram
Company has received the following dis
patch from Erzsroum : “After the battlo
of Zeidakan, June 16th, the Tnrks having
fallen back 041 Delibaba, the Russian left
wing took possession of Delibaba pass aud
fortified it. The Russian right wing having
retired somewhat, Monkht&r Pasha tele
graphed to llacbid Pasha to join him with
nine of the twelve battalions forming the
Tarkish left wing. Monkhtar quitted his
headquarters at Zswiu on the night of Jane
17th for Delibaba, to take command of the
Turkish right wing in person. Oa the fol-
ing day he received reinforcements, which
raised the streugth of the right wing to
nineteen battalions aud cavalry regiments
and three batteries. The Russians in
Delibaba pass numbered twenty thousand,
with five batteries. Several skirmishes
were fought ou June the 20th. On the 21st
Monkhtar attacked the pass. The fighting
lasted from six o'clock in the morning until
eight in the ovening. The Russians wore at
first driven from their positions, bat they
afterwards recaptured them and attacked
the Turkish position ou the heights with
charges of infantry and cavalry. The Turk
ish front gave way for a short time but af
terwards rallied, charged the Russians and
drove them back. The Tnrks then opened
a terriblo artillery fire and compelled the
Russians to fall back with heavy loss. The
Turks acknowledged a loss of four hundred
kil’i J and about the same number wouDded.
It is reckoned the Rnssian losses were at
least doublo. Oa the twe ty-aecond Moukh-
tar again fonght a severe battle. The Rus
sian cavalry were placed in an entrenchment
to act as infantry, but ultimately the TurkB
drove them out and pursued them, the
Russians retreating iu disorder as far as
Ziedkau. The whole of the fighting lasted
thirty-three hoars. The Tarkish loss, ac
cording to the latest accounts, was upwards
of two thousand; the Russian loss was much
heavier. The Turkish headquarters are
still at Zewin, where tweDty-four battal
ions and two batteries occupy an excel
lent position, which is unassailable in
front. On the 33d, sixteen thousand
Russians began to advance against
this position. The main body of this force
is at Zaracamics, five hoars march from
Zewin, and its advance guard is at Yenito-
koy. It is very probable that a battle will
be foaght iu this quarter. Tho Turks await
the assault and if it is not attempted they
will advance and endeavor to crash this
corps. Ismail Pasha, Governor of Erze-
ronm, commands the centre daring the
absence of Monkhtar Pasha. So far all at
tacks on Kars have beeu repulsed with loss.”
Constantinople, June 25.—The Turkish
newspaper Bassirel announces the capitu
lation of the Russians at Bay&zid. The same
paper states that Snleimau Pasha has en
tered Cettinje, the capital of Montenegro.
Dervish Pasha telegraphs from Batonm,
June 231: “We have repulsed several at
tacks of the Russians, and finally compelled
them to withdraw their batteries and re
treat, with a loss of fifteen hundred killed
and wounded., Darkness coming on we
could not bring up our artillery, and there
fore did not occupy the entrenchments
which the Rnssians abandoned, bat returned
to oar former positions,
A telegram from the Governor of Trebi-
zond states that a frigate assisted in the
foregoing affair by bombarding the en
trenchments of the Russians, and acknowl
edges that seven Tarkish officers and eighty
men were killed.
London, June 25.—A special dispatch
from Vienna to the limes says : “Austria's
contemplated military measures are grad
ually coming to be regarded in their true
light as measnres of precaution against all
contingencies which may arise in the pro
vinces bordering on Austria after the cross
ing of the Danube. The questions of the
foreign powers on the subject have bceu
answered in the frankest manner. It eeems
to be intended to make a special communi
cation to the two belligerents with a view
to obviate all misunderstanding. At the
same time the government will have an
opportunity to tender explanations at
homo.”
The Times' Vienna special says: “Simul
taneously with the crossing into Do-
brndscha, news comes of a general move
ment of Russian troops betweenSlativa and
Alexandria down to the Danube between
Turna Magureli and Simnitza, the ninth
army corps, which forms the extreme right
of the Russian army, leading the way.”
The Telegraph's dispatch from Vienna
says : “Russian agents have been dispatched
to Hamburg, Bremeu and the United States
to enlist sailors for tho uavy. Five new
men-of-war are about to be launched at
Cronstadt.”
A special diBpatch from Vienna published
in the second edition of the Standard says :
“The Czar and the Grand Dnke Alexis, after
a long disagreement, arc now reconciled.
The Grand Duke has been raised from the
rank of Major to that of General.”
Constantinople, Inne25.—Hobart Pasha,
commander-in-chief of the Turkish fleet,
Btated in a council of ministers that the
fleet shonld be employed in preventing the
Russians from aiding the detachments in
tho Dobrudscha. The Admiral says the
bombardment of Odessa without tho dieem-
ba-kation of trooos will be useless.

A TOENADO.
Chicago, June 25.—Tho Western Union
Telegraph Company is iu receipt of news
that a terrific wiml and rain storm, which
apparently started in the vicinity of Kansas
City, is now raging in Northwestern Mis
sonri, over the entire State of Iowa, in a
large portion of Illinois and a section of
Michigan. The wires are prostrated in
every direction, and but few telegraphic
points can fe reached. The wind amounts
almost to a tornado, and appears to be rap
idly approaching this city, which it will
reach, from present appearances, in about
two hoars.
Lateh.—About 1:20 p.m. the storm struck
this city with great force. Daring the twen
ty minutes that it lasted, a vast amouut of
rain fell aod considerable damage was done.
*The wind blew with great fnry, overturning
teams and omnibussts, demolishing signs,
breaking glass and doing other injury.
Basements were in some instances flooded a
foot deep, owing to the inadequacy of tho
sewers. No loss of liie has been reported.

DOES IT MEAN WAS?
London, Jane 25.—The correspondent of
the Post telegraphs : “ I hear that, notwith
standing the twenty-fire million dollars in
the Indian bndget, the government really
did intend to ask Parliament for twenty-
five million dollars to meet war contingen
cies. However, whether owing to the an
tagonism Baid to exist between Lord Bea-
consfield and the Marquis of Salisbury or to
the probability of determined opposition
from the Liberals, the application is to be
made only for ten million dollars. It Is
said that not only will it be made by reason
of the precedent set by Mr. Gladstone dar
ing tbe Franorrnssiaa war, but the re
quest will be iu similar language. Tbe dis
agreement between Lord Beacnnsfield and
the Marquis of Salisbury is expected to re
sult in the resignation of the latter.”

‘•LE LEVEE.”
A Charming D. .rriptlon of IVliat Mast
Have Been a ( harinlna: Scene.
Edmond and Ju’es deGoncourt, in their
splendid new book, published by Char
peatier, of Paris, “ Woman in tho
Eighteenth CdDtury," give a very char
actenstic and charming account of “Le
Lever”—getting up. It is only about 11
say the authors, that the day of a woman
of society of the eighteenth century be
gins to dawn. Till tnen the consecrated
phrase, “It is net yet day,” bars her door.
A ray of light peeping through the shut
ter or the yelp of the little dog sleeping
on the bed clothing at her feet awakens
her. She draws her curtain, opens her
eyes on the half daylight which fills her
chamber, and rings. The chambermaid
answers the call and busies herself with
the fire. The mistress asks the hour,
complains of the frightful night she has
spent and wets her lips with a cup of
chocolate. Then seating herself on tho
side of her bed, caressing her pug with
one hand and with the other gathering
her chemisette at the throat, she aban
dons herself to the care of her woman
who draws on her petticoat, and, kneel
ing, her hose and slippers. This done,
they carry her to a magnificent easy chair,
where behold her before her toilet glass
—at her toilet.
In her dressing-room the toilet table is
the triumph of furniture, surmounted by
a mirror, adorned with l&ce like an altar,
decked with a mist of muslin like a era
die, all incumbered with philters und
gewgaws, pastes, patches and scents,
vermillion, rouge, ivory powder, blue for
the veins, vinegar of Maille (sovereign
specific against wrinkles), ribbons, false
tresses, aigrottes, an enchanted little nni
verse of the coquetteries of tho age
where the atmosphere is of amber the
clouds are of powder.
For years experts have rigidly fixed the
place of this sacred room; it gives on the
north, so that the pure light of a painter’s
study shall fall on the woman who is
dressing—being dressed, that is. One
of her waiting women fits to her mistress
her elaborate corset, which she proceeds
to lace. The lyre-shaped clock indicates
the hour of noon, and already tho door
has opened for a charming male friend
who, seated beside the wardrobe chest,
his elbow on the toilet table and the other
arm thrown negligently over the back of
the chair, watohes confidently the array
ing of the fair one.
The moment of the grand lever has ar
rived and all her courtiers and intimates
come to surround the pretty woman in
her dressing gown. It is the time of the
woman’s reign. Sho is fresh, charming,
invested with the sweet disorder of the
morning. Around her buzzes what a
swarm; here a marquis, there a chevalier;
wits; social sensations. Pelted with com
pliments she replies, she smiles, darling
hither and thithei; selecting a headdress,
changing it for another; leaving bus
pended m suspense the hand of the coif
feur, comb-invested, compelled to wait
till the weathercock head is still for a
second to attempt a grand bouele. Now
are affairs of State dispatched; she is
made love to, scolds, caresses, bids fare
wells; in the middle of the oft-interrupted
babble she dashes off those delicious notes
where the heart shows itself en neglige.
Meanwhile the two bells of the boudoir
keep up an incessant tinkling; caprices,
orders and commissions keep the whole
servants’ hall afoot; she sends out to learn
the programme at the theatre, to buy
bouquets, to learn when the fashion
dealer will bring those promised ribbons
of the new style, when her portrait will
be done. The newsman enters with the
morning scandals, drawing from his load
the pamphlets withont which no toilet
can possibly be regarded as complete,
and which, he declares, will be kept for
three whole days, no matter how desper
ate the demand for curl-papers. My
lady’s doctor compliments her on her
splendid color, her perfect health, her in
finitude of charms. And the abbe (for the
abbe is the foundation and corner-Btoneof
the toilet),alittie man,lively and sparkling,
percheB himself ou a chair a maid has
poshed forward for him. tells the latest
story, hams the last song, pirouettes
hither and thither, assiduously dipping
patches the while. They come, they go,
they hover round; a genius strains a gui
tar till he is laughed down; a sailor brings
in a monkey and a parrot; a little flower
dealer, noticed the evening before at the
Vauxhall door, presents his perfumes and
sweetmeats. On an arm chair a mer
chant unrolls her costly silk, peach blos
som or pigeon’s breast color; and to all
this “What says the abbe?” inquires the
pretty woman, half turning to mm, then
again giving her attention to the mirror
during the adjustment of a murderous
patch, while the abbe inspects critically
through his glass the pretty silk and the
pretty silk merchant.—iV. ¥. World.
