The dispatch of Ahmed Veflk to Adrianople, at the instance of Minis ter Layard, has not had the effect of putting a stop to the executions. The Italian Consuls arc sending to thtfiir Government fearful accounts of the doings of the Ottoman officials. They say that the executions are de populating Roumania. The Italian consul states that two thousand Bulgarians landed at Trip- oli from Turkish transports and have been sent to the borders of the desert in the interior.

The soldiers had taken the Iudian villiagt, but, being overpowered by numbers, tliey were obliged to fell .back and fight their way to a position on the other side of the mountain, which the enemy had already taken, possession of. They had a desperate encounter, but carried the point, and immediate ly dug trenches with their trowel bayonets. In the meantime, the wounded had been left on the bottom by the creek, and while the bucks set fire to the gjass and tried to bum the little band of soldiers out of their trenches, the squaws mangled and tortned the poor fellow's who were still alive, but unable to help them*, selves.

In this place the population, which lie estimates must have been nearly 20,- 000, there is not a grown man left alive. - For six weeks the place has been at the mercy of irregulars of the Turkish army. There now remains among the rains .of what was once a beautiful and thriving town, only five or six thousand women and children. These poor creatures hide themselves as best they may, dreading the outrages of which nightly some of them are the victims.

Early in 1 tho ac tion a bugler, a mere boy, was .woun ded in both legs- One of his com rades carried.him . off the fi« Id and then returned to the fight, the bugler saying that lie w’ould rest there a few’ minutes and then try and walk off to a place of safety. The Indians got possession of the creek -and bottom land, tho squaws discovered, mutila ted him and burned both his eyes out. The boy’s sufferings can be im agined, and death was certainly a welcome relief to him —Solt Lake Tribune. .. : -♦-• r Met Her Match.—Some time on one of the Hudson river boats, a lady who had attracted much attention for the masculine turn of her manners and conversa tion, was seated at the table opposite a gentleman, who, in taking some butter, in the. absence of the usual., knife, used his own which the lady observing, called aloud to the waiter: “ Wait-ta l'bring. another plate of butter; tliat man (pointing to tho gentlemen) had his knife in this!” The unfortunate wight Mmo8t sank under the curious gaze of the company, but said nothing determined to watch his opportunity to return, for the cruel mortification, change in her Awn coin. He waited but a moment, ere a -plate of dried beef was hnnded to r -the lady, who unceremoniously took some in ber fingers and placed it upon her plate “Wait-taP exclaimed the gentle man in tbrn, '* bring another plate of beef that woman has had her fingers in this !** A most ungallant roar from the company fairly turned tho tables against the lady, and she had thogood sense to acknowledge its desert, and joined heartily in the mirth created.
