AMERICAN IN RUssIA.-Dr. Mcmillan, o.
Columbus, Ohio surgeon in the Russian
service, died at Odessa lately, and Paris let
ter, in the N. 7. Commercial, in announcing
the fact, says:

makes three who have died, while two Others,
now in Paris, who have returned from there
found their health very seriously compromised
by the campaign. This does not, however
prevent others from going, as have lust
