VIENNA, Friday Evening, 26'h.-
There is reason 10 believe that an
a m stice has been concluded between
the Turkish and Russian armies. The
intel diligence of Russian hostile operations
on the Lower Danube, Oh the 23d, Is
contradicied ny the Oeslerreichlsche
Correspondence.

Oct. 3Oth That the paper announces
that ihe French Government had re-
ceived from The French Ambassador
at Cons:aniinople, ID dis! atch bearing
date Oct. 2lst.
Prince Gor,schkof's reply to Omar
Pacha WAS regarded by The Porte in the
light OF u refusal 10 quit the Principali
ties, and, consequently, justified Turkey
II resorting 10 war. Nevertheless, OH
the en,reaties Of the representatives OF
the four powers, the Ottoman Govern
ment has issued orders for the postpone

they had not already commenced but

be void. This probably gave the cor
eoctors Of the "Telegraphic'' news an
idt a OF armistice.
The London Daily News is probably
near the truth in saying:-

to Prince Gorschkogf to receive orders
from ST. Pctcrsburgh before Omer Pa
cha WAS finally advised to begin offen-
sive operations on large scale. That
is our Interpretation Of the Armis,ice c
story.
This view OF the case is strongly
corrobcrated by the following telegraph
ic dispatch, the importance OF which
appears to have been overlooked but
which is important and true.
TIE Turks have crossed the Danube.
This highly important information 10
telegraphed circumstantially 10 an
extra of the London Morning Chroni-
VIC VI thC ist 'hes
Thirty thousand infantry and four
hundred cavalry under the orders OF
Omer Pasha, passed the Danube, al

number were in the act Of crossing
From Orsova another dispatch men

And from other sources we learn that
the Russ. ans have evacuated kaIaiat,
evidently with the intention Of drawing
the Turks from their strong position,
and bringing them to battle IN the open
PLAIN with the Danube in their rear.

Governor Lane.
The Providence Journal publishes the following letter
from Mr. Bartlett upon the proclamation of Gov. Lane,
of New-Mexico, for the seizure of the Valley Of the
Mesilla:
To the Editor y The JournaL
The proclamation of William Carr Lane Governor of
the Territory of New Mexico announcing his intention to
take possession OF district Of country the Rio Grande
north Of FL PasO called the Mesilla Valley" abOunds in
so many errors and misstatemens which may lead the
Government and the people TO form erroneous views
the subject that deem II my duty, account Of my
necion with the boundary Commission TO make the fol
lowing statement Of facts bearing the document in ques
ton Ia my remarks shtll examine each clause of the
PROCLAMATION separately, and point out its errors
The first clause aludes 10 the territory in dispute
From the year IA and anterior thereto until the ls this
Mexico bot the year 1884, the State OF Chihuahua assumed a
c s Republic Of NeIeo and without ssyns o5seS tas assent
the Une States the rsrnto Of NeweTo and defiance
1u,ed territory. v 30 then numbered COO souls
For ths assertion Gov Lane doubtless relies upon de-
Of the Mexican Government passed in July, 1924,
which says, that the province Of Chihuahua shall include
all that comprehended between right lines drawn from
east 10 west from the point town called Paso del Nore
on one side N The jHyisdieti0A has ar0gs D0ssesse
and the hacienda Of the Rio Florida the side Of Duran
90, with is respective appurehances.
On this old decree Of Me1cO four years before Chhaa
hua had adopted her Constitution, and years before she
had made known her limits rests the strongest claim of
Governor Lane TO the disputed territory But this decree
says the line shall be drawn from Fl PasO tie urtsdtc

Sugar Refining Ia Texas.
To the Editor Of Then. Y. Tribune:

To the Editor Of The N. H. Tribune:
While Sugar RefDeres are being daily e3ted in every
part of the United States, capitalists to have lost
sight of Texas altogether.
We may get down the next crop of sugar for Texas all
we'll az near 900 hogsheads with about 10000 barrels of
molasses and cistern bottoms; and each year We may
expect the crop TO increase.
Nearly the whole Of this sugar finds Its way North and
is part refined and great portion alter being refined
is sent back again.
Refinery at some convenient place in Texas would add
TO its other profits the freight insurance loss dryage and
numerous other ct ceeras well managed Refinery with
common and ordinary apparatus could convert the Mo
asses and csten bottoms into good sugars, with little tx
pense and insure large profits Let US anayze the matter
have been the aOriy OF sugar estates IN both Lou
sana and Texas and being practical engineer and sugar
boiler profess TO know something about IT, at the same
time am disinerested, do not dollars worth of
property in Texas. | am merely speaking what know
have crops of m0asses shipped from Texas 10 New
York and after the accounts squared the planters
in debt-the sale of moasses not paying Its own
expenses.
| have actually known molasses sold at So per barrel
the purchaser taking away, and paying all the expenses
and cost Of barrels, transportation, &C. &c.
We suppose mOasses could be purchased az - cents per
gallon, (which is very high delivered at the Refinery
which is So per barrel Texas molasse could be made
produce q pounds of sugar and pnts of syrup from each
gallon will put this sugar down al the low figure OF
pnts of syrup at centsmaking the proceeds 30 cents
for the gallon or Sl4 for the barrel Then comes the
bottom sugar, which would pay equally well or
better
small Refinery could easily use up 10000 barrels Of
moasses and cistern bottoms beside large quantity OF
and inferior sugar per annum LABOR can be got
cheap Fuel Is not expensive Bone black or animal char
coal be made cheaper than in any part OF America
The raw material is the spot and yet with al these
advantages there not independent Refinery IN Texas.
In conclusion MuscOvado sugars can be purchased al one
cent per pound less in Texas than New York and refined
sugars can be sold for the increasing Western consumption
at one halt cent per pound more than in New-fork.
Enough at present Some other time, may say more
upon this sutject-ihat Is if it is not Objectionable
