IRoN HOUSES FOR ExPoRT.-.We have

THETURKs.-The New York Courier g. En-
quirer predicts that war between Turkey and
Russia is inevitable, and says
sit is an gorgeous mistake to suppose that the
races and tribes which make up the Turkish ma
tlon are either degenerate or effeminate We
have heen among Them we have seen them =
we know them There is not in all Europe or in
Western Asia people capable of waging such
desperate warfare. They are strong and hardy
in body, and are sklllful in the use of weapons
Their religious ianatcism is easily excited, and
when once fairly aroused. it knows no bounds
In war they deem sacred, they rush TO a bloody
death as the surest road to Paradise Thus their
Koran teaches, and with them faith is no idle
word it is late.''

EWe have copied the telegraphic dispatches
concerning the Women's Rights Convention, at
Cleveland, as they have been received from day
to day, but they are so evidently exaggerated and
colored, that think butveFy little credit should
be given them. Indeed, accounts received direct,
from other souices, do not at all corroborate the
extraordinary statements of those despatches.-
We, received, last evening, the Forest City"

accounts Of the FIRST two days. proceedings, but
it came too late to copy anything for this moln-
