The latest Greek accounts on the Can
dian war mention another battle bet
Turks and Greeks, in which two bun
dred Turks are said to have been killed ;
the landing of Gen. Coroneos at Canca ;
and another official bulletin from the
Provisional Government on the outrages
committed by the Turks. We are not
prepared to guarantee the absolute cor
rectness of the Greek accounts of the
Candian war, but in view of the latest
Greek dispatches there can be no doubt
that the Cable dispatch which recently
announced the entire suppression Of the
insurrection was pure invention.

Arkansas,

The reports from this State concern
ing election have been contradictory
and upon doubtful authority, but the la
test adviccs assure us that the new Con
stitutionis probably adopted by a de-
cisiye majority. The State. is poorly of
for means OF commurication-railways
and telegraph lines are almost unknown
and it may be weeks before accurate
returns are received.
The white electors in this State did
not follow the stay-at-home plan OF the
Alabama Democracy, but worked zeal
ously by direct voting, to defeat the
Constitution. They, however, employed
Alabama tactics to diminish the vote Oh
the other side, indulging freely in threats
of discharge from work to keep the freed
men away from the polls.

THE PARK YESTERDAY.

The tens OF thousands who thronged the Park yes
terday and drank in the delightful delicousness OF
the balmy breezes borne over Its wooded dells and
grassy plains and hills and miniature lakes attested
more forcibly than can any written words Of eulo-
GUM the general appreciation OF the genius and FORE
sight TO which the Park owes It's inception and the
noble fostering care that has since been bestowed
upon it and brought it to Its present high state Of
beauty and perfection. On no day this summer has
there been more visitors than yesterday-such
an eager rushing from the stining down
town streets and more stining workshops and
stores to inhale the fresh fragrance Of the Park.
The lake boats were more than usually thrOnged and
yet greater crowds gathered to look at the curOs-
the special feature Of Saturday, 1t requires strong

popular appreciation and consequently is not lis
