OPINIONS OF THE FRENCH PRESS
In an article on Russia in the East" the
Epoqae of the 31st of August says
Everyone believes or suspects thati the troubles
which at present profoundly agtate the East are
the work Of Russia, or at least that Russia encour
ages them by her moral support and not imPro6aby
peciay insisted of late in which il behOOves En-

ing out the truth touching the direct action OF Russia
able TO predict when the conflict which menaces
Europe on that side will burst forth; nor do we pre-
say what will be the intensity OF the tempest
which is accumuatng III that directions; but there is
evidently there TO use an expression which has be-

From speculation pass TO facts; they have always
an authority which cannot be disputed. If we may
credit certain reports, the sum of $i2,U0OoO which

accord between Ameriea and Russia, constitute a
subject well worthy of Consideration. Assuredly,
France and England can, by continuing TO hesitate
about taking part IN the affairs of Gambia prepare
grave embaTTassments for the future
A correspondent of the Journal des Details writes
from Turkey:
In general the country is not tranquil, and the
government is even less so. Every day since the
carnival of the Sultan, the ministers meet ~ the
imperial palace under his presidency The Candlan

ments of Russian troops are taking place there on
large scale and the Russian Ambassador has been
for in great haste TO present himself To
the Gar This last circumstance has gwen Tlst TO 4
thousand suTmlscs."
