CoNSTANTINoPLE, June 20.
Fine progress of science and civilization
does not seem to have rendered war less
bloody than of yore, or even to have dimin-
ished the contingent losses by exposure and
disease. When it is stated that in the wars
of the French Republic and Empire 6,000,-
900 of men were lost TO Europe, the first
feeling is one ofincreduty, but it may
judge by the events OF the past eighteen
months, the present struggle is destined to
exceed all that have gone before in the wide
spread destruction which it will cause
From authority which there is every reasoD
to trust, learn that the Turkish Empire has
lost 100, 600 men since the declaration Of war
in the Autumn of 1858. The French have
since their arrival in the East lost 70 OG0,
dead or invaided; while the British have
suffered to an extent of $4,000. Austria has
not been at war, yet her occupation of the
provinces and the formation of immense
camps, which are always more or less I'M
healthy, have cost her no slight diminution of
force. But putting aside the neutral powers
the allies, French, British and Turks. appear
TO have lost about 100000 men. The loss
Of the Russians was stated by Lord Lans-
downe 10 be also 100000, but there is reason
10 believe this cal, ulation is below the truth.

Taking into accountthe mortality on board
the ships of war and transports, and among
the laborers of different kinds attacked to the
armies, of whom there are some thousands
in the Crimea, it may be presumed that from
100000 to 100000 men have persisted or be-
come invaded since the commencement of
the war. And yet it cannot be. said that
there have been many bloody battles, or in
deed any fighting on the scale of gigantic
contests which marked the wars of the French
Empire. When operations are conducted on
large field we must expect still greater
losses, and be prepared for supplying rein
forcements in greater numbers and with
greater regularity than has as yet been
thought necessary.

CITY OF EvANsvII
WEDNESDAY MORNING: :AUGUsT 8.


Kentucky E1ectiOn--LOuisvilIe Riots.
We learn by telegraph that there was
much bloodshed at Louisville on election
day. AS much as such an occurrence is to
be regretted by all order-loving men, we
cannot suppose that any person at all &C
quainted with the intense excitement which
has prevailed there amongst all parties, and
classes, for the last month, will be dlsap-
pointed. TIE course pursued by the Old
Line candidates upon the stump, their news
papers and leaders generally has been suf-
ficient to produce such result, even if no
other exciting questions had entered into the
canvass. But the canvass has been an IN
usual one, especially in Louisville. The
contest between the American and foreign
feeling there has been open and bitter, and
being discussed openly by men OF marked
ability on both sides, the highest degree OF
excitement was the necessary consequence.
The entire newspaper influence opposed
TO the American party, has been busy for
the past month in anticipating difficulties,
and telling their allies to prepare with deadly
weapons to meet them. In pursuing this
course they not only committed a great and
objectionable indiscretion, but the result
shows lamentable and criminal error, and
the sin lies at their own door. Innoce Mt
and otherwise peaceable foreign citizens
have been made the victims of the Infamous
dictation and misrepresentation of their
reckless leaders.
Their lives and property have paid the
penalty of being msled, while the actual and
responsible parties will escape all punish
ment except the condemnation Of enlightened
public opinion. The proud position which
the Louisville Journal has maintain ed
throughout this campaign, in its efforts to
avert difficulty and prevent the city from
being made the scene OF outrage aud blood
shed, should immortalize it in the heart OF
every peace and order loving citizen of the
Union.
The voice of Geo. D. Prentice was heard
first and last in the scene, crying out for
peace, while his opposing cotempora res OF
the press in that city, were aggng on a war.
In the bloody hour of midnight strife his
voice only was found potent to hush the
human tempest. II alone was able to roll
back the tide of popular indignation from the
very doors of those who had infamed it.
The result of the election in the city oil
Louisville is highly gratifying in itself, but
the whole nation must ever mourn the oc.
currences of the day in which it was
achieved.

A COUNTRY REPoRT.-A certain lawyer
in one of the Western States had dog that
was great vorite, and was in the habit OF
attending Court with him. One day the dog
took it into his head to ascend the bench
and annoyed the Judge very much by running
between his legs. The Judge, in a great
rage, gave him a violent kick that sent him
yelping across the court house. The lawyer,
much insensed at the unceremonious manner
in which his favorite was treated, called to
him, "Pompey. come here; there" said he,
stake that" giving him another Kick, "didn'l
tell you to keep out of bad company!"
