ASIATIC TURKEY.

The Journal de St. Petersburg, of the 23rd inst.,
contains an extract of a despatch from Aide-de-Camp
General Mouravieff, dated the 30th of July, in which
he says that the Russian troops, continuing from
July 21 to 30 in their position near the villsge of
'Mine, surrounded Kan on all sides by means of
flying detachments. On the 21st of July Colonel
Loris-Meltkoff, after a forced march, arrived, with a
portion of his detachment, in the valley of the Arexes,
whither he was ordered by the General, for the pur-
pose of organising the sandjak of Kaghj amen. The
inhabitants of this town, which contains 800 families,
as well as the elders of the Kurdish tribe of lionnouki,
surrendered unconditionally.
Immediately after the occupation, Col. Loris-
Melikt.ff set about organising this sandjak, as well as
that of Ohetchevan, which also made its submission
on the morning of the 22nd of July. Akhmet Aga,
commander of the second Kurdish regiment, and a
descendant of one of the most distinguished Kurdiak
families, was appointed chief over the two sitodjaks,
his principal residence being at Kaghyzman. One
of the objects of this movement was to open a more
direct communication with the Russian Erivan de-

tachment, which the high mountain chain of the
Agri Dagh separated from the main body of the
troops.

News was received from the Erivan detachment up
to the 26th of July, at which date Major-Geoeral
Sonia had advanced beyond Toprukh-kale, towards
the village of Z 'delta. A report bad been rcceived
that a Turkish convoy, consisting of 400 belie, of
burden, and escorted by three battalions of Turkish,
infantry, was at Olta, with the intention of getting
into Kars, by making a detour by Dadaschio, the
capital of the sandjsk of Ohel and °Mat Kilian. A
Russian detachment was sent to intercept the convoy,
but did not fall in with it.

Berlin, authorising him to inform the Prussian Cabi.

On the other hand, M. Usedom and General
de Wedsll are authorised, according to the Inde-
pendence, to declare to the English and French go.
vernments that the Cabinet of Berlin is ready to
negotiate and to sign a treaty analogous to that of
the 2nd of Dec. The French Minister observes that
by the latter treaty Austria has engaged fo make

The Bourse opened heavily, in consequence of
telegraphic advices from London that Lord Palmer-
ston had not yet succeeded in forming a ministry. ,
Business was dull during the greater part
of the day, but in the afternoon there
was a brisk upward movement, the feel-
ing being that Lord Palmerston would cer-
tainly put an end to the crisis before many hours
were over, and that Consols would rise in conse-
quence. The Bente closed at 671 r. 900., with a rise of

HANOVER PREPARING FOR WAR.

I (TIAN AN

COIIaBFONDISIT SIP TIE DAILY
XXVI.)
HANOVER, Fan. 3.

Count Rielmannsegge, our plenipotentiary at
Frankfort, and brother Of the Hanoverian envoy in
London, has been sent for b 7 the telegraph to con-
fer with ministers, and receive instructions for his
future guidance in the sittings of the Diet. It is
I satisfactory to state that Hanover, in spite of the
Ring's Prussian and Russian family alliances—the
King's mother was a Prussian princess, and the pre-
sent Queen's sister is married to the Russian Grand
Duke Constantine—has taken an open and straight-
with Austria at the Diet.

forward course, and votes , _ at ta..
This being the ease, it will not be surprising to learn
that measures are being taken to prepare for war, and
some steps have been already adopted. Our light in-
batty, which is a favourite branch of the service,
aid is in good odour in England, from the many
gallant actions it performed in the Peninsula, is to
be increased by two battalions, one of which will for
the present be quartered at Gottingen, where the
barracks are not used now, and the other at Celle.

In consequent)e of this augmentation the following
additional officers will be required for active service:
4 staff and field officers, 8 captains of companies, 2
captain, of the second class, 2 adjutants, 8 first-lieute•
nants, 16 second-lieutenants, 2 quartermasters, 2 sur-
geons, and 2 assistant-surgeons, by which an unex-
pected promotion will take place, much to the satisfao-
don of our officers here. Cheat attention is being paid
to the cavalry, so as to place it in an efficient state.
The hones in particular are undergoing a severe
scrutiny, and those that are found with any blemish
or weakness are ordered to be sold. In the arsenals
the greatest activity prevails, in order to put the
artillery in an efficient state; and the muskets of
the infantry will be replaced by new ones, as many
are found to be in a very unsatisfactory condition.
Large orders for muskets have been given to the
manufacturers at Herzberg, the government powder-
mills are working day and night, and in the labora-
tories considerable quantities of ball-cartridge are
being prepared.
As a necessary consequence of these measures, a
good many officers, whose age and infirmities inca-
pacitate them from bearing the hardships of :a cam-
paign, will retire from the service with pensions.
In the midst of these warlike preparations, our
little capital presents alai an animated appearance
from the gaieties and festivities of the Carnival, in
which the court takes a conspicuous part. Almost
daily the King and Queen give a banquet, a ball, a
concert, a sledge-party or a masquerade. These
festivities, which put a deal of money in circulation,
and thus do great benefit to the middling and lower
classes, will, however, shortly terminate; as, contrary
' to the usual custom in Germany, the religious feeling
' of the King induces him to observe the fast of Lent
. in a manner conformable to his English education.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT.—Jura 6.

00211131,10Mi1l 11171. MT.
IS as EDWARD EVITISIL—AN
This insolvent, who applied under the Protection Act,
was a carpenter and builder at New Hampton.
Mr. Pearce opposed for John Hare, a sawyer, for the
damages and coats in an action for an illegal distress. The
damages were 251. and the mists 341. The question was
whether it was a mallitious trespass, so as to prevent the
court from naming a May for the final order. Evidence
was bane given on the subject, when it was elicited that
the insolvent owed his sister 1001., and she was not in the
schedule. In order to bring the debts under 110 W., es the
insolvent was a trader, a release from the sister was pro
duced, but objected to on the ground that it was not stamped.
An offer was made to pay the penalty into court, but the
leaned sommiesioner, on reference to the Common Law Pro-
cedaze Act, held that, u this was not on "the
trial of any cause," the money could not be weaved. The
question was referred to the Chief Coetrais.ioner as to the
admissibility of the document, and from his view It was held
that it could not be received. Instead of dismissing the pa.
titian, the court adjourned the case a week, and it was
stated that the document would be stamped in the mean-
time. Protection was opposed, but It was granted by the
court. When the insolvent got outside he was MOON=
a sheriffs officer at the suit of Hare. All parties
and Mr. Bargood, for the insolvent, applied for his dleiterge.
The attorney for Hare admitted that he had instituted the
officer, acting on the advice of his counsel, as the court had
no jurisdiction to grant protection where the debts were
beyond 3001.
Mr. Commissioner Murphy told the attorney he had a
good mind to commit him for contempt. He ordered the
officer to discharge the Insolvent. He had not decided that
he had no jurisdiction. Re bad adjourned the case for a
week, end in that time the release might be stamped.
The insolvent Mee left with the protection of the court.

DESPATCH FROM ADMIRAL BRUAT.

Oa board tire Monter*llc.May 26, 1866, off Satoh.
Monsieur le Minietre,—As I had the honour of
announcing to you by my telegraphic despatches of
May 22 and 26, a fresh expedition to Kutch was re-
solved upon on the 20th.
The embarkation commenced on the evening of
the 21st, the expedition set out on the 23rd, the land-
ing wee effected on the 24th at Kamish-Bournon, and
on the 25th Yenikald was occupied after the troops
had passed through Kertch and taken possession of
the batteries situated in the neighbourhood of Ak-
Bournou.
On the 26th, Admiral Lyons and myself entered
the Bea of Asa, where we sent = a squadron to
Berdianek and Arabat. It left during the night, and
consists of four French and ten English steamers,
many of them being gun-boats.
The success of this expedition, which has been no
complete, and in which our troops, under the com-
mand of General Autetnarre, have displayed their
accustomed ardour, is also due to the rapidity with
which it Las been carried out. On this head lam
bound to make known to your Excellency how com-
plete and cordial the op-operation of Admiral Lyons
ke been in every airman:steam
From the first day, and when we came to anchor,
the disembarked°n of the French troops commenced
with order, under the direction of Captain Julien de
is Orwrierr, the chief of my staff.
After °reviewing myself of the promptitude with
which the landing of the expeditionary force was
effected, I advanced with the Laplace, on board
which ship I had hoisted my flag, to reconnoitre the
batteries of Cape Ak-Bournoo, a powder magazine of
which had been already blown up by the Russians.
Boeing himself on the point of being turned, the
enemy lost no time in blowing up several others and
evacuating these positions.
Very shortly after, an English gunboat of light

EUPATORIA, Mace 12.
I am glad to say I was mistaken as to the sending
out the fourth flag of truce, accompanied by Colosid
Simmons, &o. These gentlemen confined themselves
to an inspection of the fortifications ; but Omer Pacbs
did send a considerable quantity of tobacco and some
cases of wine to the Russian outposts as a present for
Prince liadiviL The officer who accompanied them
learnt that the captain of Tartars, who deserted the
ether day, during one of the conferences, as I men-
tioned in my last letter, has been relating all he
knew of the place, the force in it, &c., going eo
minutely into the matter as to recount the most
salient points in the private life of movers' of the
officers. He must have proved quite a godsend for
the Russians, as I suspect the greater part of their
information must have been derived hitherto from
Tartar peasants; whose ignorance and stupidity of
course vastly diminished the value of their accounts.
This fellow seems to have been a man of consider-
able =tenet", and more or less au fag of all
that pulsed. His getting off so easily is
• capital illustration of the total want of
and organisation which pervades many
rpistratiments of the Turkish army. When they
landed here, in an enemy's country, and established
their head.quarters in a town where themes' of the
poi elation is at least open to suspicion, and in which
great numbers of Russian born subjects, attached to
the Russian cause by every tie by which men's hearts
and heads can possibly be bound, are still residing,

dons would be the establishment of a good police, to
preserve order and cleanliness, and above all, to look
after spies and traitors. r With Relates,' within a
few miles of me, I cannot, as an Englishman, blame
the Turks very strongly for inattention to the first
two points ; bat as a resident here, with my mind
and limbs dependent on the safety of the place,

to dwell a little upon the lest. Omer Pacha certainly
