The WAR-RUssIANs EVACUATED The PRINCIPAL
1rIEs.-From the tenor of the news we published
few days since, we were led to infer that the
Russians would give way before the victorious
Turks, but we were not prepared for the news
which we publish TO day, viz: that the Turks had
evacuated the Principalities. This step is taken,
says the Gar out of respect to theprotest Of Aus
tria, but in fact it is because the Turks have COM
PEELED the Russians to take up their bed and walk
1t is thought by some that this turn in affairs may
bring about peace,-that Russia, out of respect
for the demands of Austria, will consent to SUBJ
NIT to the wishes of the Four Powers. We have
room for speculation to day, but give the brief
information as it comes.
The war news brought by the Baltic is brief,
but of much Importance. The Russians are re-
ported to have evacuated the Principalities and
are concentrating their forces beyond the Pruth

The RAILRoAD.-The st. Anthony Express,
specializing on the grant of land given to Mime
sofa for railroad purposes, says:
"They assume that as no organization was ef-
fected prior to the act of Congress, no obstacle
lies in the way of their receiving the immediate
transfer of these lands, in accordance with the
teYms Of their charter. If it be true that Con-
gress has suffered itself to be thus jockeyed, hood
winked, by grasping, inscriptions monopoly
led into the egregrious oversight Of substituting
the word organized for incorporated, is alleged,
then indeed may our worst fears be realized-the
grasp of mighty Titan is fastened on our
throats, and our beautiful Territory will become
but food for the capacious NAV of q remorssless
and all powerful monopoly"
We fear that our neighbors' misgivings will be
realized.

CENTRAL PRESBYTERIAN CHuRCH.-ThiS Church
occupies a prominent position near tho Capitol,
and is much admired for its architectural beauty.
The brick of which it is built is of superior or
der, and the workmanship does great credit to the
masons who constructed it. 1t is built in the
Gothic order with spire, which, when finished,
will be 1872 feet from the stone work, the highest
spire in the city Or the Territory. At present it
is only ITO feet high. The interior of the build
ing will present very fine appearance, being Or
namented with white plaster columns and drops
of the Gothic order, and finished in the best style.
There is but one main entrance, but this is suif-
ciently large to enable ingrcss and egress with
ease. As you enter the door, stairway conducts
you to the Lecture room, part of which is now
coupled by Rev. Mr.. Riheldaffer, pastor of the
church for school, which we learn is in a -four
ishng condition. The building is not so long as
was originally intended, but it is the intention of
the congregation to add on as soon as the cxigen-
cies of the demand. The cost of the build
ing is not far from $4,000. \ new Bell has re-
Gently been purchased at an expense of $500, and
delivered at ST. Paul, by Capt. Brookes, of the
Admiral, with no charge for freight. We under
stand that the Church will be dedicated in about
three weeks, at which time we shall take occasion
to allude to the subject again.
