:--The most singular statements about our army,
rasposition and employment, are made in the foreign
011rnala. The following particulars are authentic :
-At the Caucasus and in Asia Minor the detached
e°ll)a of the Caucasus is employed partly in block-
7.gi'ng this latter place. All the troops not required
;C:t this service are in the field in conjunction with
:tae 13th division of Luders' corps, the militia that

%mind: the Turks. The other half of Luders' corps
is posted partly in Bessarabia, partly opposite the

'Part of Osten-Sacken's are. I can positively assure
4`llu that the 6th army corps from Moscow, Tsheoda-
rl, has also' been on its march thither for months.
"As a proof of this strongly disputed point let this cir-
Lamstance serve. Upon the report sent in from
Tula of the commandant and the civil governor,
concerning the marching of the 6th army corps
through the government before named, and in re-
cognition of the exertions of all classes, especially
'of the nobility and tradesmen, in giving assistance
7:0 the corps while on its march, and supplying the
liroops with rations and forage, the Emperor has
c(munanded the two authorities above-mentioned.

the meagre invalid fund, there is no endowment

Treasury and the War Pay-office must, therefore,
defray these grants. The war costs enormous
'lnuits, especially while the troops remain in Russia,
for here everything is paid for with ready money.
The stock of bullion in our Banks throughout
the empire is already exhausted, as I mentioned
