Washington, July S. -The Herald's
special reports dißintegration of Cab
inet rumors. Key finds that he ean
relieve the President by resigning,
and McCreary, in view of the expres
sion of his lowa constituents, is
bouud to resign.
The President is irritated over the
indictment of Wells and Anderson
for perjury in connection with the
Louisiana returning board. The
President’s idea was that all matter
of this character was condoned by
the Matthews-Foster bargain.
Agricultural Commissioner Watts,
after consultation with Simon Cam
eron, declioes the invitation to re
sign, and bis suspension also comes
before, the Senate. There will be
mnddy‘water after aKoht the 15th of
October.
It is denied in high circles that the
speeches during the President’s visit
to Boston were composed with a view
of excluding political or other mat
ters of significance.
—Commissioner Ledin litis taken
possession of the Agricultural De
partment. The cotton interest, will
be glad to hear that Mr. Dodge, the
statistician, continues in charge of
the Statistical Bureau of the Depart
ment.
The instructions issued to General
Trevino, commanding on the Rle
Grande, in connection with orders
issued to General Ord, authorizing
him to follow Mexican murderers
across the river, are positive. Gen.
Trevino was instructed to resist such
invasion, but tbe Mexican War De
partment takes care to explain that
stroll resistance couldn’t be con
sidered an act of war against the
United States.
Trenino is instructed to send a
(fommissioner to General Ord, to ex
plain these views, aDd to assure him
of the willingness on the part of
Mexico of observing tbe extradition
treaty between the United States
and Mexico, but at the same time, it
is a determination to maintain all
tks sights under the laws of nations.
The order also states that, General
Moata is fully empowered to treat,
with the subject at Washington,
The Treasury on Thursday will
probably sell ten million bonds.
Col. French, 2d Artillery, promot
ed, vice Gen. Roberts retired.
Nothing done in Cabinet in regard j
to foreign appointments.
Sherman and McCrary are absent;
Evarts returned early tiiis morning.
Weather very threatening.
Secretary Evarts submitted to the .
Cabinet to-day Diaz’s order to Gen. |
Trevino, ordering him to resist with j
force the invasion of Mexico by U. j
S. troops, its authorized by Instruc
tions to Gen. Ord. Mexico’s order
was discussed but no action taken.
Gen. Meata has not yet had an in
terview with Evarts concerning his 1
recognition as Minister of the Diaz
government. He may ba received by
Evarts on Thursday.
There is no indication that Meata j
wili be received as Mexican Minister,
or that the instructions to Gen. Ord
will be modified. The Administration
wilt act slowly and cautiously in re
ceiving anew minister from Mexico.
The President has commissioned
the following Postmasters : Shuford,
Mineola, Texas; ChamberliD,Belton,
Texas ; Wilson, Lynchburg, Va.
Gov. McCormick represented the
Treasury in Cabinet to-day.

London, July 3.--A Simnitza dis
patch to Die Daily Aries and the
Times' Bucharest dispatch, remark
upon the dilatory tactics of the Rus
sians since they crossed the Danube.
The Times' dispatch says the posi
tion they occupy is fortunately a de
sirable one for a defence, and the
time allowed them by the Turks lias
enabled them to bring up men and
guns enough to defend it. For two
days the situation was critical, but
now by occupying the hills in force,
the Russians have practically gatnert
an immense bridge head.—[And what
is a bridge head ?]
London, July B.— The 'Times’ Buch
arest dispatch says the Russians have
occupied Tirnova, the ancient capital
of Bulgaria. Prince Toherkoski lias
been proclaimed Provisional Govern
or of the province, and an election
ordered.
The Russians are pressing on be
yond Tirnova tuwaui the Balkans.
The 'Finn's' Belgrade dispatch
says the Skuptehira will declare the
Independence of Servia.
Latest i 'ports indicate that only
the Cossack advance ha 1 reached
Tirnova, and that the Czar himself
would move nearer t.ti ■ front, for the
purpose of pushing the reduction of
Rustchuk.

and a government that did not offer
protection to every citizen of every

A BRILLIANT ACHIEVEMENT.
Cable Telegram to the Now York Herald.|
London, Juno 30.—The Herald's
correspondent at Arrere telegraphs
that the attempt of the Russians to
cross the Danube at Turtukai was de
feated by the Turkish gun-boats.
The Russians hail constructed their
pontoons on the bends of the Aril
schisli river, west ofOltenitza, and
floated them t hence io the Danube.
The Turkish gunboats, under shelter
of the islands above and below Tur
tukai, anticipated the crossing and
opened lire on the first boats that
i#aued from Hie Aidsohiali. Several
guns in position east of Turtukai as
sisted by their tire in defense of the
river, and, although the Russians ex
hibited persistent bravery, they were
unable to reach the middle of the
stream. Their loss, however, was
slight, and the evidence is
pretty strong that tho movement
was but a feint to prevent the
Turkish gim-boats from operating
further up t tie river.
During the crossing at Matchiu
the pontoon bridge constructed by
the Russians was broken by the
Turkish gun-boats, which had lain
so long in front of the town. It was
extremely fortunate that tbe moral
effect of the recent destruction of
a Turkish monitor by the Russian
torpedo-boats rendered tile move
ments of tuose gun-boats extremely
cautious, otherwise tho crossing at
Matchin might, have resulted in a se
rious disaster to the Russians. As it
was, eight thousand men who had
crossed were completely isolated by
the breaking of the bridge; and had
there been a sufficient force of Turks
on the defensive, this body might ]
have been slaughtered or captured.
THE crossing at simnitza.
The Herald correspondent at Sim
nitza telegraphs that the first cross
ing of the Danube at that point was
accomplished in boats containing
from fifteen to forty men each. These
lioats were dragged on carriages
through tiie mud by large gangs of
men with immense labor to the river,
and there lauhehed in tho darkness
of the night. The carriages had to
be drawn on skids where the inud
was deepest, as the wheels afforded
no support whatever in such places.
As fast, as the boats arrived the
troops in waiting embarked. Gen
eral Y >tehine led the way with the
first detachments, and inspired con
fidence in his followers by Ills cool
courage. General Diagmiroff di
rected the movements connected
with the crossing from the Rouman
ian shore. No confusion or
noise marred the operations,
and everything was conduct
ed with the strictest regard
to ‘the plans and orders laid down
and issued at the general head
quarters. No sooner did the first
two boats put off from the shore,
than they were discovered by the
Turkish sentinels, who quickly gave
the alarm. The Turkish artillery
prompt ly opened fire, and one of the
leading boats was hit and swamped.
Tbe surface of the river soon became
broken by a perfect hail of bullets,
but tlie execution done by this sharp
lire was not in proportion to its en
ergy. The darkness had ranch to do
with distracting the aim of tho Tur
kish sharpshooters and artillerists,
and this eireumsta.-.ee gave consid
erable confidence to the occupants
of the. leading Russian boats. When
the first boat, lauded, the Soldiei.s
were instructed to lie down in the
mud in skirmish linos, care being
taken to prevent their arms and am
munition from injury. Gradually tho
force increased in numbers, and
when about two battalions wen'
landed, Gen. Yolchine commanded
them to stand up and fix bayonets,
and to follow their officers. At the
word, all arose reeking with mud and
river slime, and along the dark line
the bayonets flashed like electric
sparks. Then the order “Forward!”
was given, and the troops moved to
ward the Turkish position. The
hillside increased in abruptness as
the Russians advanced. In front, the
darkness was broken by the rapid
musket firing of the Turks, which
was chiefly directed at the boats
continuously approaching the shore.
When near enough to fully distin
guish their enemies, the Russian
line was ordered to charge. With a
loud cheer t,he study Russian infant
ry rushed upihe. heights. A blind
ing volley from the Turks, fortunate
ly aimed too high, swept over them.
Another moment
THE BAYONETS WERE AT WORK,
And the Turks, retreating slowly,
j were pushed from tho river bank.
; The combat was hand to hand, and
completely successful to tho ltus-
Isianfl. The building of tho pontoon
I bridge was commenced immediately
after the landing of the first twenty
boats, and proceeded with great ra
| piditv, as their sections were all in
! readiness. Each section was towed
| obliquely up stream, and at about
| two hundred feet from the center
; line heavy anchors were cast over
i board, and a section allowed to drift
1 downward into position, where they
| were secured by stout rafters, ropes
I and spikes. As the bridge head ex
pended into the rivt?r strong guy ca-
I files, attached to trees on tho up
stream side, were quickly secured,
‘ and the stain caused fiy the current
on the bridge connections was over
come.
• so THE BRIDGE WAS THROWN ACROSS THE
liivtii:,
And the invading force rapidly aug
mented. The Grand Duke Nicholas
and General Drogmeroff were among
the first to cross after the bridge was
completed and their arrival on the
Bulgarian bank was greeted by tho
shouts and cheers of Ihe Kussian ad
vance guards. After them poured
battalion after battalion of infantry
| followed by light field pieces and
their equipments, in boats. These
j were quickly mounted when they
reached the Sistova side. Some dif
ficulty was experienced in bringing
the horses over, both on account of
the darkness and the exploding
Turkish shells in the vicinity. At
this point of crossing the Russian
loss was probably one thousand men
killed and wounded ; but the Turkish'
loss must have been nearly as great,
as they held their ground until fairly
overpowered by numbers. .Probably
one hundred thousand men are now
aeros the river at Sistova. This
force is composed of tho Fourth,
Eighth and Twelfth Corps, and is
deems I amply sufficient to eoutrol
the Turks advancing from the
quadrilateral.
I'll I) H llt ON II AY En-
M ENA Cl Nil ATTITUDE OF THE LEADING
UKI’UI.ICAN PAPER IN THIS COUNTRY.
The New York Times, of Friday,
contains a leader on the action of the
lowa Convention in refusiug to in
dorse the President’s policy toward
the South. Tlie article McCrary
went to lowa for the express pur
pose of securing this indorsement,
but, failed. Silence is denominated a
sorry indorsement. The condition
of tlie unity of the Republican party
in lowa is asserted to be a studied
avoidance of tho new policy, and the
lesson taught is that the party leaders
iti the Northern and Western States
must not hope to extort, the appro
val of a policy which is silently ac
quiesced in, but which does not on
iis merits commend itself to
the judgment or feeling of the Re
publican party. Tbe Times asserts
that a broad dividing liue lias been
drawn between the Administration
and a large portion of the party on
the Southern question, and that the
fact ought not to be ignored. If the
South showed any disposition to re
ciprocate or meet, the President in
his efforts at conciliation tho policy
might command respect, but the
South, on the contrary, shows a dis
position to use the President’s gener
osity in upbuild tho Democratic par
ty and has no spark of the proper
appreciation of his course. “The
consequence is that the Republicans
throughout the North find them
selves mocked by a suirender which
brings not a single countervailing
advantage. They have been depriv
ed of a strong position without any
prospect of obtaining an equivalent.”
Tliis is taken hero to mean that
the l imes, heretofore set down as the
probable chief organ of the dissatis
fied Republicans, will not be availa
ble for t he purpose.
Mr. James F. Wilson, who seems
to have been the controlling spirit in
the ijwa Convention, was lilaiue’s
right-hand man at tho Cincinnati
Convention, and was to tho last, one
of the most unrelenting and bitter of
the opponents of Hayes and Bristow.
He is a Government director of the
Union Pacific, was formerly in Cou
gress, and is understood to have
been a lobyist for the past three or
four years.
The action of the Convention is
very gratifying to tho dissatisfied
Republicans in Washington, and
they are lou 1 in expressing their
gratification. They jubilantly pro
phesy McCrary’s speedy retirement
from the Cabinet. They say he has
the choice of leaving tho Cabinet or
his party, and they are im pi eased
that, he will choose the former as ibe
lesser sacrifice.

This standard article is com
pounded with the greatest care.
Its effects are as wonderful and
as satisfactory as ever.
It restores gray or faded hair to
its youthful color.
It removes all eruptions, itching
and dandruff. It gives the head a
cooling, soothing sensation of great #
comfort, and the scalp by its use
becomes white and clean.
By its tonic properties it restores
the capillary glands to their normal
vigor, preventing baldness, and
making the hair grow thick and
strong.
Asa dressing, nothing has been
found so effectual or desirable.
A. A. Hayes, M. D., State As
sayer of Massachusetts, says, “The
constituents are pure, and carefully
selected for excellent quality; and
I consider it the Best Preparation
for its intended purposes.”
