The Facts Of the Case,

reference. IL will be observed that the
Russisn interest is represented by The
London Times, and consequently, the /
news that reaches US through that chan 7
ntl, is TO be taken with an allo vance OF
increduliy. The hsiaiic side Of the
war looks favorable TO the Turks, as
Persia, it is asserted, will oppose Russia.
The news from the seat of war reaches
US Of course, all by Vienna, ana from the
time Of the war in Hungary, and Of
Omar Pacha's expedition against Monte
negro, we know how lI,lle the dispatches
from Vienna can be credited. Besides
they ore so obscure, and the English pa
! perS know so little about the geography
of Turkey, that for ordinary readers the
confusion is inexlricable. The facts, as
Ear us it is possible to asc rtain them, are,
up 10 now, as follows:
On the Goth of Sept, there was meet
, ing of the noiables of the Empire, al
Cuns;aninople, recommending the rcjec-
tion of further negotiations, and The is
suing Of decarali of war.
AT The end ot SePtemJrr, serious de-
c feat of the Russians took place in the
I mountains of Circassia, by Shamyl Bsy,

On the 3lst Of October, Baron Meye

IN the declares that the Car will not accept al

'cn- declaration, without any further conc'

hey All these statements are entirely untr
the forged only in order to discredit
ton Sultan. You are aware that the sa
that system was maintained during the war

lcre ticians in Paris, London and Washing
