RUSSIA AND TURKEY.

The Cronstadt Gazette says—" The Turkish-Rus-
sian affair seems to have taken a new turn. It is
said that the Turks have left Moldavia and Lesser
Wallachia. OMER PASHA has had all the invalids
embarked on the Danube, and his forces consist now
of only 8,000 men, who are at Bucharest. It is
rumoured that the Porte intends to renounce its
claims to the sovereignty of Moldavia and Wal-
lachia, and that it will demand from Russia that
those principalities be placed under the protection of
the different European Governments."
The Wanderer of Vienna, of the 29th ult., says,
—" In contradiction to the above we have a letter
from Connstantinople, dated the 29th, to the Wan-
derer, that Russia has consented to settle the affair
of the Hungarian refugees, agreeably to the plea-
sure of the Porte, on condition that Turkey resigns
its claims to the Danubian principalities in favour of
Russia."

deen. Since then the omnibuses to and from this
stational have been well filled, and occasionally extra
coaches have been required. The Marquis of Abercorn
went south by the railway on Thursday.—Aberdeen

ITALY.
We read in the D(bats, with reference to the
Cardinal Triumvirate at Rome :

" We have unfortunately been more than once cone-
polled to point out the illiberal tendencies and to blan.e
t he retrograde acts of the commission of Cardinals,charge d
by the Pope with the govercment of the city of Rome.
We have now fresh violences with which to reproach
this Triumvirate, and what adds to our regret is to learn
that the French authorities have played a part in these
distressing scenes which liberal Europa—if there are
still in Europe minds which the catastrophes of the last
two years have not disgusted with liberty—will learn
with a feeling of lively and legitimate reprobation. It
is true that, thanks to the remonstrances of the French
Ambassador, these deplorable scenes have ceased, but
even that does not remove the evil of having participated
in it. The question is of the Jewish quarter at Rome,and of
the treatment to which its inhabitants have been ex-
posed for the last two days. The Ghetto, that monu-
ment of the worst epoch of barbarous times, has been
the theatre of an expedition which will remind its un-
fortunate and timid population of the days when they
only appeared to live to be persecuted. Under the pre-
tence of seeking for the precious articles which had
been removed from the public monuments under the
reign of Mazzini, this unfortunate quarter was sur-
rounded, invaded, and occupied militarily for forty-
eight hours; its inhabitants were by this very fact
pointed out as a race of thieves, and receivers of
stolen goods. to a population whose prejudices re-
quired no additional stimulus; the houses were all without
distinction ransacked, without there being any legal
indication against the probity of those who inhabited
them ; the quality of a Jew was sufficient to subject
them to the most humiliating examinations ; the mili-
tary measures were in fact so rigorous that every in-
habitant was forbidden to open his house—to go out into
the street even to purchase provisions, or to seek a me
dical man, if such had been required. One old man
died, and three women were brought to bed without
being able to get medical assistance. It will be quite
sufficient for our present purpose to point out these
facts to public opinion for them to be judged of
as they deserve. Neither will it be forgotten,
in judging of them, that neither during the satur-
nalia of the Roman Republic, nor since its fall,
has any fact been established to prove even the moral
participation of the Jews in any of the acts of that de-
plorable drama; and, however entire may be the co-
operation which French policy has lent to the re-
establishment of the Pontifical authority; however strict
may be the laws of military discipline, it will not be
forgotten that in the law of recruitment in France, no
exception is made of religions, that in the ranks of the
expeditionary army there are doubtless soldiers and
officers who performed their duty as nobly as any of
their comrades when it was necessary to reconquer his
capital for the Pope. As the price of their blood shed
in the breaches, they have seen all those who professed
the same religion as themselves stigmatised as a race of
robbers and receivers of stolen goods."

RAILWAYS—TREIR WEEKLY AVERAGE MILEAGE
RECEIPTS.—There appears weekly in the public prints a
statement of the average mileage receipts on all the
English railways, comparing them with those at the
same period of last year. Usually the comparison ap-
pears to be against the present year, but this ought not
to be taken as any criterion of the comparative average
mileage profits—for instance, say, which is generally
assumed to be the case, that the additional mileage
opened this year has cost per mile in construction less
by one-half than the parent line, so that if the average
profits are only one-half upon these extensions compared
with what they aro on the parent line, they will yield the
same rate of dividend and yet show very adversely as
re.pects the comparative average mileage receipts. It is
surprising that the railway companies do not take the
trouble to set the shareholders and others right upon
such points as these, in order to allay as much as possible
the panic which so' unwarrantably exists with regard to
these immense national undertakings. If the receipts
were properly analyzed, it would easily be proved that
the average mileage profits are considerably in favour of
the returns of the present year on those lines where the
affairs have been honestly conducted.

LAWLESS PROCEEDINGS IN NORTHAMPTONSHIRE.—
For some weeks Upper Boddington and its neighbour-
hood have been in a lawless state, and serious offences
have been rife.. Last week a stack of oats, valued at 251.,
the property of Mr. John Paine, of Upper Boddington,
was destroyed by fire. It is believed to have been the
wilful act of an incendiary. On the night of Saturday
last Mr. John Boneham, of Byefield, a shopkeeper and
carrier, was, when between Boddington and the above
village, attacked by two men, who beat him with blud-
geons, and robbed him of about 41. lle is, from the in-
juries, in a precarious state. Within a few weeks nearly
twenty cases of sheep-stealing, besides other robberies,
have occurred. Clarke, the police officer, and Mr.
Paine, the constable of Boddington, were recently shot
at, and since then two guns were fired at the policeman.
In neither case was injury done, but in the first ono the
shot hit Clarke. The district is in a state of terrorism
and disquietude. The authorities are taking active steps
to bring the offenders to justice, and with this view ten
additional officers are to be forthwith employed.
Self-love is at once the most delicate and the most
vigorous of our defects; a nothing wounds it, but nothing
kills it,—,Eliza Cook's Journal.
