It is quite probable that when Congress
assembles in October,Mr. Hayes will need
all the assistance he can get to explain by
what authority he assumed to maintain
the army at a standard of 25,000 men, or
at any other standard, for three months
and a half, when not a dollar had been
voted for its sapport by those who con
trolled the pnrse of the nation.
Secretaby Sheeman is filled with con
sternation at the reception of his strange
statements about the finances. He is
making a desperate effort to put
the responsibility for the reports
telegraphed from Washington on
the newspaper correspondents, but he
cannot in that way escape the blame,
which is wholly his, for selling $5,000,000
of per cent, bonds at 99£ cents to a set
of favored bankers, when the same bonds
were sold in open market at 108f. The
reporters had nothing to do with that.
The statistical Bureau of the National
Board of Underwriters, in New York, have
issued a circular calling attention to los
ses by fire and casualties caused by fire
works aod fire -crackers on the 3d and 4th
of July, 1876 and suggesting that proper
steps be taken to prevent the use of these
explosives is all parts of the United States.
The invoice value of these dangerous
goods imported since January 1, 1865, is
less than $1,500,000 while the loss by two
conflagrations within the past ten years,
directly traceable to such explosives, is not
less than $10,000,000. It is computed
that every dollar’s worth of fire-crackers
brought into the country has caused a di
rect loss of over $100.
The Administration is having consid
erable embarrassment in respect to the
diplomatic positions. The theory of the
President and the Secretary of State is
that those appointments are of such a
personal and representative oharaoter
that the present incumbents ought all in
delicacy to tender their resignations, and
thus give the President an opportunity to
make his own selections. With a few ex
ceptions, there does not appear to be any
disposition on the part of the present in
cumbents to resign. On the other hand,
individuals are embarrassing the Presi
dent by a too persistent urgency in press
ing their claims for these positions. The
Secretary of State is not over-pleased
with the unauthorized announcement of
appointments made from New Orleans.
There will be a pretty general change
in the diplomatic appointments.
MORE TROUBLE IN EUROPE.
The recent coup d' etat in France has
caused the entrance of a new factor in
European politics. The Simons ministry,
which was so summarily dismissed, was
appointed only four months ago. It is
explained by the French, English and
German journalists as having “been cut
and dried” long since. For a great period
there has been contention between the
Radicals and Glerioals in the French Leg
islature. .The Radicals objeot to the sup
port of any Christian or infidel denomina
tion from the Frenoh Treasury, claiming
it is as much as they can do to support
the State, independent of the Church.
They are in favor, as in the United
States of making the dhuroh inde
pendent of the State, rightly de
manding that the twoin the present
enlightened State of the world are
wholly inseparable and * have no
possible connection. President Mae-
Mahon seems to be regarded as the expo
nent of the Clerical or Ultramontane
party ; Jules Simon and Gambetta of
Republicanism pure and simple as far as
the French nation, who have really no
idea of a representative republic, can con-
oieve. Many good men contend that the
churches should be supported on the
voluntary system ; but the Clericals are
endeavoring to increase the State provis
ion for the Catholic church. M. Jules
Simon and Gambetta are at one extreme
of liberalism and ex-President Theirs
at the other; while the
clerical party inside and outside
the Legislature expresses unlimited sym
pathy with the Pope against Victor Eman
uel, King of Italy. Formerly the Pope,
besides being a spiritual, was a temporal
prince, governing certain Italian provinces
called “The States of the Church,” and
reigning in regal as well as sacerdotal
state in Rome, which has been the head
quarters of the Catholic Church for over
eighteen hundred years. In 1859-’60 a
war between the King of Sardinia and the
Emperor of Austria led to great changes,
many of the minor princes being deposed
and their principalities merged in a newly
formed kingdom of Italy. In 1870,
in the autumn, Rome, which had
been previously protected by French
troops was taken possession of by the
King of Itaty, who immediately made
liberal arrangements for the Pope. His
functions, as supreme head of the Catho
lic Church were not interferred with, and
he has had the fullest privilege of leaving
and returning and of going where be
pleased. His Holiness prefers to assume
that he is a prisoner and the Clerical,
otherwise known as the Ulnramottane
party, believes or affects the same.
Hence the opinionis held by Ger
many that Franee entertains the idea of
attacking or provoking hostilities with
her. Germany and the Pope are at dag
gers point, and Germany will not permit
France to interfere with her policy.
The prospects now are very favorable to
the position that MacMabon will be de
feated by the Senate in his endeavor to
dissolve the Assembly or in his appeal by
the people. The will of the people will
govern the army as the experience of the
past has fully shown. All things between
the great powers appear threatening and
the condition is not altogether owing to
the Eastern War.
TOO MUCH OF A «OOB THING.
It is utterly disgusting to read the effu
sions of some Southern editors, who claim
that all lawlessness and especially evi
dences of mob law should be discounte
nanced, because forsooth of incurring the
displeasure of the North. Bless the North!
What have that people to do with it ? If
the act was right, who cares what North
ern sentiment may be; if wrong, every
honest man should condemn, because it is
wrong. Some carry the fear of the North
at their pencils’ point. Let the North
care for itself. It violates the laws fifty
times to one in the South. Let them say
what they please. We are not dependent
on them for anything. They are amply
repaid for all they do. Let the South be
ihdependent.
The good or bad opinion of others does
not make an action right or wrong, and
the less we care for it the better for us.
The North is no arbiter to sit in judgment.
Let their own skirts be cleared. Approve
what is correct, condemn what is iniqui
tous careless whether the North frowns
or smiles. The Kemper slaughter in
Mississippi was either justifiable or not. If
not justifiable the perpetrators should be
punished after the courts have pro
nounced sentence, if justifiable, say it was
right and maintain it, though the whole
North utters a howl. That people does
not rule this country nor are they our
judges. Let them take care of their own
crimes or virtues, and we of onrs heed
less of their favor or disapproval.
Gen. Habbison Allen, late Auditor-
General of Pennsylvania, has abandoned
his fine residence near Warren to his wife,
and lias announced that he will stop at no
sacrifice to break the bonds between him
self and his faithless partner. It was
supposed that the case would be settled in
the courts, but on Wednesday afternoon
the General heard that his wife was enter
taining a stranger at his house, and, of
securing the aid of several policemen, he
proceeded to arrest the disturber of his
domestic peaoe. Mrs. Allen held the fort
in front with a pistol while her corns
panion escaped from the rear and drove
off hotly pursued by the General and the
police, who were fired upon by the fugi
tive. They returned the shots with great
liberality. No harm was done by the
bombardment, and the man esoaped to
the woods.” /
A decision just rendered by the Gener
al Term of the Supreme Court in this dis
trict, says the New York Sun, declares
that stockholders in a corporated compa
ny have not, as a matter of course, the
right to see and examine its books. They
must whenever they desire information
which the directors refuse to give them,
apply to the court for a writ of mandam
us, setting forth the reasons for their ap
plication, and the court will consider
whether these reasons are sufficient and
act accordingly. That is to say, a stock
holder is not a partner, having the same
right of access to thp books of his corpo
ration that partners have to the books of
a partnership, but is only entitled to
know so much of bis own business as his
servants may choose to tell him, or as a
Judge in his discretion may think he
ought to be told.
A Russian commissariat officer at Odes
sa was detected adulterating flour about
to be sent to the army with lime and
other substances. He was immediately
tried, and shot within twenty-four hours
after the discovery took place. The Rus
sian Government trust that this summary
execution will put » stop to these prac
tices, which caused so much suffering to
the Russian soldiers during the Crimean
war.
TREASURY TACTICS.
THE BECENT ATTACK ON SECBETABY SHEE
HAN AND ITS CAUSES—A NICE ARRANGE
MENT FOB THE CAPITALISTS.
Correspondence New York Herald.]
Washington, May 22.—Mr. William D.
Kelley and Senator Jones, of Nevada, are
believed here to have inspired the attack
on Secretary Sherman in the Washington
Nation. They declare that Mr. Sherman
is ruining the country, and no donbt they
wonld like their own financial plana
adopted. Mr. Kelly’s plan is well known;
the pages in the House of Representa
tives speak of it familiarly as the “incon
trovertible bond theory.” Mr. Kelley is
the friend of the workingmen, and as
each be wants to make them—who are the
taxpayers—pay interest to the capitalists
of the country, when they can get inter
est on their money nowhere else. That
is the real meaning of his interconver
tible bond scheme by which a capitalist
may tnrn bonds into the treasury
and get greenbacks for them when
he wants money; while when he
has no more use for money he may send
back the non-interest bearing greenbacks
and oblige the treasnry to give him bonds
for them bearing fonr per cent. It is a
very convenient arrangement for capital
ists; bnt it is not so' clear how it is to
benefit the poor laboring man, who has
neither bonds nor greenbacks, bnt whose
taxes are to pay the rich man interest on
bis ujle money.
As to Senator Jones, he was once a sil
ver man, bnt he is now understood to fa
vor the abolition of the national banks,
the permanent abolition of gold and silver
as currency, the issue of irredeemable
legal tenders at so many dollars per head
of oar total population, and a yearly cen
sus, with an increased issue of greenbacks
based on the increase in population. Mr.
Jones is confident that with Bnoh a sys
tem we shall be happy and prosperous,
and as he finds Secretary Sherman inca
pable of seeing the beauties of his system
he naturally wants to get a new Secretary
in his place. There are people here who
say that Senator Jones has "not as much
influence with this administration as he
had with the last.
GRANT PASHA.
A SENSATIONAL STORY THAT THE EX-PBE8IS
DENT IS TO LEAD THE TURKISH HOSTS.
The Philadelphia Item says it has been
positively asserted in Washington that
ex-President Grant, while ostensibly
visiting Europe for pleasure, is really to
take command of the whole Turkish army
against Russia. The story is that Eng
land was instrumental in making this
choice of a new commander for the Sal
tan, in the hope that Grant’s success
would render her interference unneces
sary. It is added that the offer was
brought to this country by the President’s
sou-in-law, Mr. Sartoris, who, with Fred
Grant is to be on the General’s staff.
Finally, the latter’s commission, it is
said, dates from May 1, and his pay—
three months of which he is to receive in
advance npon taking command—will be
largely increased shonld he succeed.
SIXTEEN EXECUTIONS ORDERED.
TEN FOB ONE DAY—GOV. HABTBANFT BENT
ON TEBBIFYING THE LAWLESS.
Habbisbubg, May 22.—The Governor
to-doy issued warrants for the exeontion
of eight Molly Magnire murderers, in ad
dition to fonr issued a few weeks ago.
Hngh McGehan, James Roarity, James
Boyle and James Carroll, convicted of
the murder of the Tamaqua policeman,
and against whom the Supreme Court res
cently decided, will be hanged at Potts-
ville on the same day—the 21st of June—
on which Thomas Manley, the murderer
of Thomas Sanger and James Urens, min
ing bosses, will be executed. Alexander
Campbell, convicted of the murder of
John P. Jones, mining boss, will be
hanged at Mauch Cbunck, June 21st, with
Michael Doyle, Edward Kelly and John
Donahae. The 9th of August has been
designated for the execution of Patrick
Heste, Hngh Tally and Patrick
McHngh, of Colnmbia county, convicted
of the murder of Alexander W. Kae, Su
perintendent of the colliery, in the fall of
1868. The Governor also fixed the same
day for the hanging of Thomas F. Carley,
the murderer of Miss Whitby, of Mont
gomery county. The number of unex
ecuted death warrants issued by the Gov
ernor the past two months is sixteen, all
of which will be carried into effect in
Jane, July and August. On the 21st of
Jnne ten murderers will expiate their
crimes on the gallows of this State. Nine
of them are Molly Magnires. There is a
prospect that Daffy, one of the Yost mur
derers, will hang with his accomplices at
Pottsville, if the coart records in his case
should rerch the Governor the present
week. He is desirons of exeenting as
many murderers together and on the same
day as possible.
The First Napoleon’s Idea of the
Yalne of Newspapers.
From the Pall-Mall Gazette.]
In the ninth volume of the Napoleon
correspondence, recently published, there
is a carious letter addressed by the Em
peror to Gen. Savaty, Duke of Ravigo,
then Minister of Police. It is dated
“Chateau de Snrville, 19 Fev., 1814,” and
written in a spirit which may be supposed
still to animate Oriental and military po
tentates. “The newspapers,” his Majesty
is pleased to say, “are edited without any
intelligence. Is it rational, in the pres
ent state of affairs, to say that I had very
few men, that I conquered because I sur
prised the enemy, and that we were one
against three? Yon must indeed have lost
yonr heads in Paris to say such things,
when I am saying everywhere that I have
300,000 men, when the enemy believes
it, and when it must be repeated again
and again. I bad formed a bureau for
the direction of journals; does it never
see these articles ? That is the way in
which with a few strokes of the pen yon
destroy all the good which resnlts from
victory ? You coaid very well read those
things yonrseif; yon can understand that
this is no question of vainglory, and that
one of the first principles of the art of
war is to exaggerate and not to diminish
them. Bnt how am I to make this clear
to poets who seek to flatter me, as well as
to flatter the national self-love,instead of
seeking to do good ? It seems to me that
these matters are not beneath yonr notice,
and that if yon were to pay some atten-*-
tion to them, such articles, which are not
merely nonsense.bat pernicious nonsense,
would never be printed.”
The extent which the Ben Wade crowd
of implacables have bulldozed the Admin
istration may be inferred from the fact
that they are actually considering the
policy of writing complaining letters to
Governors Nieholls and Stone, in respeet
to the isolated cases of homicide which
have lately occurred in Mississippi and
Louisiana. There is a disposition in
Government circles to make a special
point of these cases, as indicative of gen
eral lawlessness at the South. Fifty or
more cases of violence occnrring at the
North attract no attention.
Communion Wine.
Chicago, May 26.—In the Presbyterian
Assembly the committee to which was re
ferred a memorial relating to the common-
ion wine reported that the control of this
subject shonld be left to the sessions of
the several churches with earnest recom
mendations that the pnrest wine attaina
ble be nsed. An amendment that intoxi
cating wine is not necessary at commun
ion bnt that non-alcohol fruit of the vine
shonld be nsed was tabled and the report
was adopted.
Vesuvius (the world’s great safety valve)
again threatens an eruption—always un
controllable by hnman effort. Eruptions
of the physioal system, as Boils, Pimples,
etc., are Nature’s safety means to warn
the sufferer that his blood needs entire
purification—most quickly and effectually
accomplished by using Dr. Ball’s Blood
Mixture.

THE PAPAL ANNIVERSARY.
FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF THE EPISCOPATE
OF PIUS EX.—ITS CELEBRATION AT HOME
AND ABROAD.
The fiftieth anniversary of the eleva
tion to the episcopacy of Pope Pius IX.
will be celebrated all over the Catholic
world with special ceremony. It is un
precedented in the annals of the Catholic
Chnrch that a bishop should live long
enough to celebrate snch an event. The
age at which priests become eligible to
the episcopacy being thirty-five years,
snch an occurrence would require an age
of at least eighty-five years, a period
mnch beyond tbat usually allotted to the
life of man. This, taken in connection
with the great dignity of Pins IX in his
character of Pope and the fact of his
having rnled longer than any of his pre
decessors, makes the present occasion one
of nnnsnal significance, which pious
Catholics all over the world have recog
nized by sending to Rome delegations
with addresses and gifts of money to be
presented to their Holy Father.
SKETCH OF PIUS IX.
Giovanni Maria Masti Forretti was born
May 13, 1792. His thoughts soon turned
toward the church, for at an early age he
began his education for the priesthood.
He was ordained priest in 1819. His early
life was full of scenes of dramatic inter
est and wild adventure. He was sent on
an expedition to South America, during
which he was thrown into prison, narrow
ly escaped shipwreck near the coast of
Africa, and had many adventures in the
New World. He is the only Pope who has
ever set foot on American soil. After re-
maing six years on this side of the Atlan
tic he returned to Rome and was appoint
ed Cannon of the Santa Maria Hospital.
He was remarkable for his great charity
to the poos and unfortunate classes of
Rome, bnt possessed in a no less degree
shrewd financial ability and rare execu
tive talent. The combination of these
qnalties soon made him a marked man
among the Roman clergy, and opened the
way for his rapid advancement. On May
21, 1827, he was appointed Archbishop of
Spoleto, and on June 3 was consecrated.
In 1840 be was appointed cardinal. On
the death of Pope Gregory XVI, in 1846,
he was elected Pope on the fourth ballot by
tbe College of Cardinals, receiving thirty-
six votes out of fifty-four.
His election was immediately made
unanimous, and three days later he was
installed in the Pontificate. His reign,
though mnch disturbed by the many rev
olutions that have swept over Europe and
by the loss of his temporal power, has
been one of the most remarkable of all
the Popes. The declaration of the dog
mas of the Immaculate Conception and of
the Infallibility of the Pope in matters of
faith and morals has drawn the attention
of the whole Christian world, and the
promnlgation of the latter dogma gave
rise to the Old Catholic movement in
Germany and Switzerland.
THE ANNIVEBSABY.
The anniversary festivities began in
Rome yesterday, and will continue until
June 3. Delegations from nearly every
nation of the Christian world will be re
ceived by the Holy Father. These nu
merous receptions are the causes of the
long extened period which the celebration
of the anniversary will cover. In this
city there will be no anusual ceremonies
in honor of the event, but a plenary in
dulgence has been granted by tbe Pope to
all who will receive the sacraments on the
3d of Jane. The following is a copy of
the brief promulgating this indulgence,
which has just been received, and will be
read at all the masses in all the Catholic
churches next Sunday:
“To all the faithful in Christ to whose
notice the present letter may come, health
aod apostolic benediction. Since the
Yonng Men’s Catholic Society of Italy,
besides the many other remarkable acts
of piety which, in common with most
other Christians who are animated with
the same spirit, they never cease to per
form in behalf of the common father of
the Catholic world. Their desire to give
testimony of the love for us and of their
gratitude to God for having, by his,prov-
idential assistance, left us at onr ad
vanced age in fall possession of our men
tal and corporal faculties, despite the try
ing ordeals through which we have to
pass, has resolved upon the solemn cele
bration, on the 3d of June next, God will
ing, of the fiftieth anniversary of our ele
vation to the episcopal dignity, and ear
nestly hopes that this event may condnce
to the welfare and prosperity of the Chris
tian people, we, intent in onr pious char
ity, on increasing the piety of the faithful
and contributing to the salvation of souls
by means of the celestial treasures of the
ohurch, and desiring to gratify the pions
wishes of this society, do, confiding in the
mercy of God Almighty and the au
thority of the blessed apostles Sts. Pe
ter and Paul, mercifally grant in the Lord
to each and all of the faithful in Christ of
both sexes, who will, on the 3d of Jane,
of this year, assist at the boly sacrifice of
the mass in any chnrch or sacred oratory
whatever, and,having confessed their sins
in the trne sentiments of sorrow, shall
receive the holy communion and offer up
their pious prayers to God for the conver
sion of sinners, propagation of the Catho
lic faith, and the peace and triumph of
the Roman Chnrch, a plenary indulgence
with the remission of all their sins, which
can be applied by way of suffrage to tbe
souls of the faithful in Christ who have
departed this life in union of charity with
God. We also wish that transcripts of
printed copies of tbe present letter,signed
by the hand of any notary public whom
soever and marked with tbe seal of any
person invested with the ecclesiastical
dignity, shall carry tbe same height and
authority as if this present letter were
produced or shown.
Given at Rome, near St. Peter’s, under
tbe ring of the fisherman, this 27th day
of February. 1877, in the thirty-first
year of onr Pontificate.

The Mazarine Bible.
At a meeting of the Connecticut His
torical Society in Hartford, the chief in
terest gathered about the exhibition of
one of the rarest and most valuable
books in the world. Dr. Trumbull
brought out the Mazarine Bible, belong
ing to the collection of the late George
Brinley. This is one of the only two
copies in America, and there are only six
in the world. It was printed in 1455.
Two years ago two copies were sold at
auction in London in the same sale, and
one printed npon paper brought $14,000,
gold; the other, on vellnm, brought $20,-
000, gold. Usually a vellnm copy of any
work, brings fonr or five times as much
as a paper one; but the history of the
Mazarine Bible raises the valne of the
paper copies realatively to those on vel-
Inm. Gnttenbnrg printed the first copies
in 1455, and those were on paper; in 1456
Faust got possession of the types, and
his edition was partly on vellnm. These,
consequently, are not so completely
“original.”
Tbe Brinley copy is on paper—one of
the genuine Gutenberg prints, and is a
marvel of the printer’s work. Its eqnal
could not be made to-day. The ink,
though fonr hundred years old and more,
is as distinct as ink conld be, and the
paper is still white and clear. The
“register” is perfect, and the appearance
of the page far surpasses that of the best
modem books. Tbe work is printed in
Latin, with a number of enrions contract
symbols in the text, nsed to space the
lines evenly. Three different ways of the
letter “S”—broad, moderate width, and
narrow—are examples of the care taken
in such respect. This volume Was proba
bly bonnd abont a hundred years after
printing, and mast have been bidden
away for oentnries in some monastery.
The Mazerine Bible was the first b ook
printed with movable type.—Hartjord
Courant.
First Briton—“Hi suppose you’ve ’eard
the news from Hamerica ?” Second Bri

CONCENTRATION OF TROOPS IN ASIA—PER
SIANS NEUTRAL —CRIMEA IN A DISTRESS
ING CONDITION.
WAS NOTES.
London, May 26.—The Times' Bucha
rest correspondent says the present indi
cations strengthen tbe conclusion that no
important events will occur on the Dan
ube till the whole front line is in position
on the bank of the river. A strong corps
will be fromed on the extreme right com
posed of the Roumanian army and two
Russian division. This force will move
up the Turkish side of the Timoc and
turn tbe left flank of the Balkan line by
the movement on Sophia and Philippolis.
This column would have a friendly coun
try on the right from which to draw sup
plies.
The Russian army which captnred
Ardahan was seventy thousand strong. A
portion of this force reinforced the Rus
sians before Batonm, which is seriously
imperilled.
Russia will respect the neutrality of
Servia. Her independence is a matter
which can only be settled by agreement
of the great powers.
Some Russian vessels from American
waters will return to Grenstadt; others
will anchor off Gibralta to intercept
vessels with contraband of war for
Turkey. The Egyptian contingent em
barked at Alexandria yesterday.
A column from Van and a column of
Circassians from Erzeronm are poshing
forward to cut off the Russian advance in
that quarter.
The Turkish iron clads destroyed an
earthwork at Nikopolis, driving the Rus
sians oat who left forty dead.
DEMONSTRATION IN CONSTATINOPLE
Vienna, May 26.—The Alundblatt says
Thursday’s demonstration in Gsnstantl-
nople assumed very serious proportions.
Many thonsand of people led by the
armed Softas presented themselves before
the police to demand the dismissal of the
ministry, and recall of [Midhat Pasha.
The Sultan fled to a fortress on the
Asiatic side. The military dispersed the
crowd wounding many. The Christians
fled oat of the. city and many Europeans
took refnge on board ships. The con
sternation was general.
TUBKISH MONITOR BLOWN UP ON THE
DANUBE.
London, May 26.—A dispatch to Ren
ter from Bucharest says a telegram re
ceived here announces that the Russians
blew np a large monitor on the Danube
at 3 o’clock this a. m. by means of launches
bearing torpedoes.
RUSSIANS BEPOLSED.
Constantinople, May 26.—Intelligence
has been reoeived here that the Russian
bombardment of Kars has been silenced.
The Rnssians continue to advance in
Erzernm. A battle is expected shortly.
The Russian right wing is at Alti, and the
left at Van. The Russian attempt to
throw a bridge over the river before the
Turkish lines at Batoum was repulsed
with loss.
CRITICAL SITUATION IN CONSTANTINOPLE.
London, May 26.—A Vienna dispatch
to the Times says the proclamation of a
holy war looks like yielding to the popu
lar demand, which has been growing
loader daily, that the Saltan join the
army. The proposal tbat the Sultan quit
Constantinople has naturally raised the
question whether it is safe to leave
behind a Parliament which is be
coming more difficult to manage, and
which moreover has the whole population
of Constantinople with it. It is no won
der, therefore, tbat Constantinople dnr-
the last few days has been filled with ro
mans of impending dissolution, a coup de
etat, etc. It is felt even at the Palace
that Makhtar Pasha’s incapacity has ne
cessitated his recall, yet a fresh attempt
of the Chamber in this oase to directly
influence the coarse of affairs may ma
ture the Porte’s resolution to cheok inter
ference by a prorognation at least.
TURKS DEFEAT RUSSIANS IN ASIA.
Constantinople, May 26.—A detach
ment of Russians with two gnns on Tues
day attacked tbe Abshisian village, Akaba
and Ideak, near Batonm. The Abshisian
chiefs assembled all their available force
and repulsed the Rnssians, who lost 150
killed and many wonnded. A Russian
major and four captains were fonnd
among the slain. Tbe Turkish loss was
7 killed and 11 wonnded.
FIRING on kabs slackened.
Ebzeboum, May 26.—The Russian bom
bardment of Karadagh and Takmas forts
and out works of Kars is now carried on
at intervals. Turkish batteries are reply
ing.
FROM THE CRIMEA.
Moscow, May 26.—Intelligence from
Eupatoria, in the Crimea, announces that
most of families belonging to the wealthier
class have fled to Simflrestopal and other
towns in the interior. All tbe shops are
shut. The Roadstead is deserted, all
merchant ships having left. The smaller
vessels have been sunk or hauled ashore.
In the town there is a perplexible want
of provisions.
TURKISH FORCES IN ASIA.
Sixty thonsand infantry and five hun
dred horsemen are concentrated at Shum-
la, and held in constant readiness to
move. The elite of the Turkish officers
are there in defile at Praivady. The con
dition of affairs in tbe Turkish quadra-
lateral, composed of Varria, Shumla,
Rnssechok and Selistria, is satisfactory.
The Turkish army in Asia, however, is
spoken of as deficient in everything but
bravery and enthusiasm.
