TURKISH VICTORIF.T.

According to the Stalukrd the Turks are quite
unable to account for their elleCe.l4lll in Asia, and are
really distrustful of the general retreat of the
Russians, a+ they a.. not think it warranted by the
losses which the Russians have sustained. They have
got it into their beads that the En.isians are trying to
draw Ahmed Monk Mar and Dervish Pachas away

from their strong positions, with a view to make them
fight on unfavourable ground. Instructions have
been sent to both generals to psis,eed with the utmost
caution, and on no account to let themselves be
drawn into an unfavourable position, or into a great
advance.

WINBORNE.

t)N Samlay evening last, according to announcement,
an open air service was held at Merryfield, Calehill, by
the Rev. E. F. Trotman, upwards of MO persons were
present, mostly belonging to the labouring classes residing
at l'ilforti, Cutail% and Broombill. The rev. gentlemen
gave a very earnest discourse founded on the 15th chapter
of St. Luke, which was listened to with the greatest
interest. The Rev. A. L. Trotman assisted in the devo-
tional part of the service. It is the intention of Mr.
Trotman to continue these services occasionally.

A TIGER HUNT IN NORTHAMPTONSIIIRE.
The somewhat novel mole of Hunting a tiger with a
railway engine was witnessed near Ruby. It appears
that a tigress was despatched from Lindon to Liverpool
by the 1 45 p in. train on Monday chi the London and
North.We.tern Railway. On the train passing Wolves-
ton the truck in which the animal was confined was
observed to be all right, but on the train arriving at
Rugby it was discovered that the truck had been broken
open, and on further investigation it was found that the
tigress had made its escape. This instantly spread
consternation amongst the emplopis of the company, and
Mr. Anima, station master at Weeilon, was telegraphed
to take steps to find where the animal was. He in turn
communicated with I.ieut. Douglas and Surgeon• Major
Edge, of the littith Regiment who are old Indian officers,
and it was on their advice that he took immediate steps
to destroy the brute. A tiring party, under the command
of the first-named Officer, was procured from the barracks,
and they were conveyed down the line on a pilot engine.
On nearing a place known as Buckby Bank the tigress
was observed some distance ofT in a field,and several shots
at long ranges were fired at her. These had the effect
of driving the beast into a corner of the field and on it,
putting its head through the hedge. Sergeant Francis fired
at it from the engine and Inflicted • severe wound. He
I caused the brute to bound sevetal feet in the air, and it
I then fell to the ground, where it began to growl furiously.
The ammunition of the firing party, which, by-the-bye was
I very limited, had now completely failed, when a Mr.
Judkins, who lives close at hand, came out with his rifle
I and several more shots were fired at the beast, one of
which at last took effect in its throat. The carcase was
then removed to Weedon station on the engine, and was
subsequently sent to Euston.

WAR NOTES.

I IINOV)

The news of the capture of Tirnova by the Itaastans,
already announced in the St. Petersburg Oe(os, is con-
firmed by an official telegram from the Russian capital.
The place was surprised by General tiourka with a
holy. (cavalry and amounted battery. The Turkish
camp, with a quantity of ammunition and baggage,
was captured, and its previous occupants were driven
back upon Osman Bazar. The position of the latter
place on the na ip being on the road to Shutt la, suggests
as the most likely version ot the affair. that the Turks,
finding themselves outn um bereil and in danger id Icing
cut off, hastily evacuated Tirnova, and fell back
towards Shnmla At first sight this appears a leci4led
loss to the Turks and an important gain to the
Russians, as Tirnova, besides being the ancient capital
of the Bulgarian kingdom, commands the roads that
conduct to two of the most important passes over the
Balkans—that by way of Gabrova and the lower pass
to Slivno. It is difficult, however, to resist the con-
clusion that Abdul Kerins Pasha has deliberately
sacrificed the place, as he could have easily thrown
large masses of troops into it. It appears more and
more probable that the Ottoman commander intends
to play a waiting game, and, while allowing his
adversary to push forward, to operate upon his left
flank and rear. If these tactics prove successful, an
advance upon Constantinopole will become next to
impossible.

THE GREAT TURF FRAUDS.

SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST DETECTIVE OFFICERS.

The arrest of three ,f the leading officials of the
Detective Department of Scotland Yard on a charge
of conspiring to defeat the ends of justice has calmed
immense excitement throughout the metropolis. For
some weeks past secret inquiries have been instituted
by the Home Office bearing upon the officers in their
pursuit and capture of the turf swindlers. Till
Thursday morning, however, the fact was known to
none but highest authorities that the Treasury had
ordered a criminal prosecution. The order to arrest
was given effect to at ten o'clock when Druscovitch,
Palmer, add Nieiklejohn came on duty. At that hour
Superintendent Williamson entered the detectives'
room stated that it was with extreme regret he had
to request the officers named to consider themselves in
custody. Nothing could exceed the surprise with
which the announcement was heard by their colleagues,
whom many years' experience had taught to have
entire confidence in the integrity and honour of the
accused. The prisoners were then taken in cabs to the
King-street Police Station, where they were formally
charged with the offence indicated. Thence they were
removed to Bow-street and detained in a private room
till the ordinary business of the Court was concluded.
The appearance of such well-known officers in the dock
along with a scarcely less well.known solicitor in police
courts caused the greatest consternation among the
foibitscs of Bow-street, for some of the public knew
that a case of such importance was pending. The
proceedings occupied only a few minutes. As soon as
Mr. Poland and Mr. Lewis had finished their state-
ments, the solicitor was admiited to bail, and great
surprise was expressed when the magistrate (Sir
James Ingham) refused to accept sureties for the
detectives, though a score of gentlemen could at once
have been found who were willing to become bail.
The exact grounds have not officially transpired, but
it in believed that Benson, the concoctor of the turf
frauds, has since his conviction made certain *Hege-
-1 lions of bribery to suppress evidence which have led
' to the present extraordinary charge.

THE BARBLEOL'S custom of "aelling a wife," which is
thought by ignorant people to Ire s legal transaction ha'
just been enacted at the town of liurford, Oxfordshire,
where, for the small c,unideration of • shilling, one man
disposed of his "better half" to another, who, strange to
say, already possesaed a wife of his own. The purchaser
took an early opportunity of making himself scarce at
Burford, having met the woman by appointment on
Thursday at Banbury, from whence they proceeded to the
north.

A PPLIT IN THE CAM'.

It is reported from St. Petersburg that the troops
which have besieged Bayazid for more than three
weeks have been relieved by General Tergukassoff,
whose troops defeated the 30,000 Turks who were in-
vesting the citadel. The town of Bayazid, the
telegram adds, is destroyed. The Russians have
raised the siege of Kars. From the Danube we hear
that the Roumanians have made an attempt to cross
the river, and it iii said that Prince Charles is deter-
mined to engage the Turkish forces at ltustchuk. The
Czar, in displeasure at this resolve, has withdrawn his
aide de ciunp from the Roumanian Ilead.gnarters,
while from Vienna we hear that both Engiaml and
Austria have remonstrated against the Prince's
action.

EROcLANtaTioN OE THE ISt LTAN To THE BULGARIANS.
The Sultan is about to issue a counter Proclamation
to that iif the Emperor of Russia. It is studiously
moderate. It points out to the Bulgarians all the evils
which have befallen those who have put their trust in
Russia, and adds that Russia cannot give liberty to
the Bulgarians, inasmuch as she herself does not
possess liberty. It also declares that, wherever
Russia has interfered, she has produced nothing but
ruin. The Sultan concludes by promising the Bulgarians
that they shall soon be relieved from the scourge of
invasion, and restored to peace and prosperity under a
new ref inte of justice and equality.

IMPENDING CHANUES IN THE TURKISH ARMY.

..... .
It is extremely probable that Abdul Kertnin, the
Commander in Chief will be superseded. Some say
that he will be replaced by Iledif Pasha. There is great
it ritation against him in the palace and at the Porte,
partly because he will not answer questions as to his
plans, and partly bemuse aftergiving many assurances
of the safety of his position he has now asked for 00,000
more

men.

THE BRITISH FLEET IN BILYIK BM

The arrival of the fleet at Besika Bay bas caused
great irritation. There is at the present moment
among the Mahometans, and especially in the higher
circles, a hitter hatred of the English, who are accused
.4 thinking only of their own interests and of caring
nothing for Turkey. Many leading Turks declare
loudly that if Turkey is compelled to RUC for peace,
she will do well to dispense with the advice or assist-
ance of England, and to treat directly with Russia.

Our Coveniment,-I cunienZind writes a London
correspondenta are in possession of information that
the Russian, intend to ocxnpy Constantinople at all
risks, unless the Turks anticipate theevent by making
pence on the ('earn own terms. The effect of the
receipt of this and other intelligence RA to the
Russian intentions has been, I am further led to
believe, to modify very conslerably the view taken of
the crisis by certain members of the cabinet. The
practical outcome will probably be that if the more
energetic members should feel bound to adopt an
active policy they will no longer be opposed by those
of their colleagues who have hitherto been disposed to
err, if at all, on the sile of caution.

TATLOR T. SHRUBS.
This was an action to recover damages for a breach
of lir:Praise ,of marriage. The plaintiff denied having
made the promise, and pleaded that at the time he was
alleged to 'have done so, plaintiff knew he was a married
man.
Mr. 311-all appeared on behalf of the plaintiff; and
Mr. Pyin Yeatman represented the defendant.
The plaintiff was formerly engaged as attendant at
Croehy Hall Refreshment Bar, and the defendant was
a public auditor and actuary carrying on business in
Palmerston-buildings, Old itroad-street. The defend-
ant dent made the acquaintance iif tlie plainiiff at the
refreshment bar. and interviews subsequently took
place between them. The defendant was introdumalto
the plaintiff's mother, and accepted by her as a suitor
,to her daughter's baud. It was alleged by the plaintiff
that after a year of close and affectionate intercourse
she discovered through a friend the defendant was a
married man. The engagement was then broken off,
and the present action brought. The defendant stated
that he told the plaintiff the third time he saw her that
he was a married man, and that his wife was then
living; and he alleged that she had never entertained
any serious intentions of marrying him.
Mr. M'Call opened the case -for the plaintiff, and de-
scribed it as one which happily very rarely came before
a public court. It had been brought to recover sub-
stantial damages for the ,indication of his client's cha-
racter, which had been impugned IT the most seriiius
charges made by the defendant. The learned counsel i
called the following witnesses. 1
Annie Cecilia Taylor, the plaintiff in the actin, said
that she woe at present residing with her mother in
Kennington. She lost her father in 1872, and 1V11.4 one
of seven children. After her father's death it was
found necessary for her to go out as barmaid. In

On Wednesday night or Thursday morning, a
prisoner escaped from the prison at the Nothe Fort.
This was John Rett. a native of Curlierlggs, near

magistrates a few days previously as a deserter, and
given up to the military authorities. By these Rett

BROAD WET.

WE AEI SURE this is quite as interesting as some of I
the " Cuckoo" paragraphs with which our con-
temporaries lately favoured their readers. On
Wednesday morning, a hen in the pneeseion of Mr.
Rogers, of the Swan Hotel, laid a double egg, the
peculiarity being that to the end of the larger, which
wee of the ordinary else, was attached one very much
'smaller. They were both perfect, but at the point of
juncture the shell was only one thickness.
A LITTLE STORY ABOUT AN ESCAPED
CONVICT.
Consequent upon the re-rupture of the escaped
convict, a little incident which occurred in this village I
some 15 years ago in connection with a gentleman
cared for by Government, but, who managed it
rather better, may be readable. Late one night,
about as many years past as we have mentioned,
Mr. Rogers, of the Swan Hotel, bad occasion to go into
his stable, and he saw a man lying under a cart; he
bad no shoes or stockings, and his coat consisted of a
converted table cover of gaudey pattern. "Out of
this," said the landlord. "Can't yer give me a night's
lislging," whined the fellow, hiding his face in his
hands. The landlady at this juncture had arrived,
"No we can't," she -said, and if you don't take yourself
off, we will get the policeman who soon wilL" No
sooner were the words uttered than the man took to his
heels, gave a short run, and then with a bound like •
deer, cleared a wall 12 feet in height, plunged into the
river on the other side, and was lost to eight. Narrat-
ing the circumstances to a friend, Mr. Roger. learnt
there had been "a fashionable departure" from
Portland, without any farewell being bidden the gover-
nor The host of the Swan and his friend at once
started in pursuit, but after a couple of hours of
fruitless search returned home. The run-sway the
same night broke into an inn at Upwey,. regaled
himself on an egg, and carried off a parr id the
landlord's boots. I. rem thence he went to Channineter
where he broke into a house, left the boots he had
previously stolen, and took swny a pair of better ones
in their place. This was the last that was heard of
him.

THE WAR.

The London correspondent of the Lea Is Mereuey
says:—" I understand it is Intended to renew the
agitation throughout the eountry with reference to the
Eastern policy of the Government. This is the main
object, I am told. of Mr. Gladstone'm proposed visit to
Birmingham. He will, it is sail, deliver another
great speech there upon the foreign policy of the
Ministry, and the example to be thus set will, I
believe, be followed throughout the country."
The condition of Eutope, and not the condition of
European Turkey, is the spring of all our anxietiss
and troubles. But for the mutual relations of Ger.
many, France. Russia, and the deadly jealousies and
apprehensions arising from the Franco-German war;
but for the insecure antl anxious position of Austria,
and the ambition of Italy; more than all, but for the
fact that these jealousies, ambitions, apprehensions,
have compelled all these Powers to establish armlet'
that must soon be used or soon put down, so utterly
unbearable is the cost of maintenance; but fnr all this,
we gay, there would probably have been no Bulgat lan
insurrections, and certainly they would not have been
allowed to lead Europe to the brink .4 a general war.
But those conditions do exist; and a desperate hope
of redressing them in some quarters, a desperate in.
tention to do 11,1 in others, ix the secret of all that has
lately hamtened and the inspiration of what is to
happen. In short, what lies before us, an we said the
other day, is not art much the reform of Turkish rule,
as a threatened retlistributiob of power throughout the
world. Th...., who put English interests in the fore-
ground of their consideration are naturally regarded
as the selfish obstructors of a beneficent work thwart-
ing it upon t.rrtunds which are as intellectually in-
stifficient a. they are morally ignoble. But all turns
Instil, the real facts of the situation. What if the mis-
government of the Turkish Christians is no more than
a pretext! What if the war is no mere humanitarian
enterpri.e, ht the first step towards the accomplish-
ment .tf designs which may alter the whole basim of
power in Europe? What if the 'totem-Turkish war is
made the °evasion for the settlement not merely of
Russian or Turkish but of Ettropean!questions? How
this may be events alone will show; but that we can
afford to lay such contingencies oust f account is •
conclusion against which the whole course of European
history for ten years past affords one continuous
series of protests. And if we read correctly what
seems almost impossible to read amiss, then what folly
would it be for England to remain unprepared? In
our view, we must arm, not by any means simply to
provide against Russian aggneodon, but against
dangers which, though as yet undefined or undeclared,
may prove menacing to the empire; an empire which,
though we talk of it ass matterof "English interests,"
lo undoubtedly an important factor in the welfare of
mankind.—Poll Mall Gazette.
