MosUL, Monday, Jan. 2, 1854
Much has been SAID of the remarkable quiet now
reQsing through the Sultans interior provinces and
much also of the disturbed rate Of the country You
ssght to be 10 possession Of the truth.
Eoslem fsna,iesm is greatly excited, but TIE orders
sent from the Porte 10 the different Pashcs lining
respectfo foreigners and kind tresment for the native
Chrtsrs have led the fanatics 10 be careful how they
act though il is true that many instances ha1c oo

that the Russians will soon be driven back 70 MOSCOW
lnye Kept the people quiet though the Mosioms gen.
ersy would like the chance to vent their spite aganst
ChIistiaIs wbese condition has greatly improved

sJa,ta obtained for the rayGhs OF the Porte chely
through the energy Of Lord stratlord De RedclIne
A Few weeks since, about 10 900 Kurds and Jacob
ties from Jebel Tour attacked Jezirah, and 40 were
Killed $50 were taken prif0ners and about l,OOD were
wounded. Many were drowned in the IIgrs IN es-

A Rabbi lies now in PRISON az MOsdl, charged with
having four yodrs ago nsuted the name o. the Prophet

der for his death but the lema seized bold of tie Cad
ard would have killed him had be not then like Christs
Judge given his assent TO the death OF the Jew just
as tie Uemas rule at Staub6l they rule here. The
Pssha Iss not power to enforce order and yet order
10 in measure preserved. -.
The widest imaginable reports circulated and 1T
is only because the MOslems are so confident OF VIC
tory that tie country is not in great uprOar The
Kur4s are pundering at will in many places, and they
yield but nominal obedience to tie Turkish aut5orl-
tier When the Pasha of Bash Kodth was asked by
fLe American missionaries in Caviar If he could pro
tect them there; he replied, IL can to-day, but What
"msy be to morrow, God knows"
Mr. Schneider and some missionary ladies' OF Antab,
were lately beaten and robbed few miles from that
ety and the mails obliged to have strong guards
Baedad was lately thrown into state OF great ex-
eiteuept by the report that 10000 Persians were
marching to attack tina, city. The Arabs were called
in from the desert troops were sent to Suemanyeh,
on the Medisn frontier, from MOsdl-al was comno-
ton Just they about to strike, The Sbah sg
pitied pacific intentions to the Turkish EmbassadOr,
with whom as well as the English, diplomatic rela-
tiops had been broken of tie Persian troops sent TO-
ward Bagdad, Burrah and Ervan, were recalled, ana
some Russian officers who had come to Iabreez to take
command of the detachment fitted out by gft O.
20 eco Russian Imperals, retired to Tlis in disgust
The Russian EmbsssadOr threatens to leave Teheran,
and the English are again good terms with the
Shah. Doubtless this movement of the Persian King
rev out Of the late success OF the Turks, and few
Russian victories would lead him again to put his
shoulder to that of the Car The Persans not 10
be trusted II is reported that 600 Russians were
lately killed nesr Erzerdm, and 1900 wounded. Re
port slso says that 5000 Turks led into an am
tufesde, and only four men escaped to report the
lorrd execution Of the Russian batteries There is
to be hard Sighting in those parts yet, as well as along
the Danube.
A Noslem has lately lost his head, BY order Of the
Sultan at Adrianople for turning Christian. As said
before, Mohammedanism only wants power to bathe
is sword in all Christian Jewish and Pagan bosoms
Turkey cannot be regenerated under Mosem rule and
II IL my PRAYER that the Crescent may increase
though the Turk is as good as the Russian.
