The road to Bilek and Trebigne, and from
the latter to the Servian frontier ana down TO
the..Suttorina, has been opened and the block
houses repaired and garrisoned.
So much have been made OF the taking and
burning of these blockhouses that it may be as
well to mention that they are simply we'll
built guardhouses and contain usually a garrl-
son of from four to ten men, with a non-com'
missioned officer.
The other indubitable fact is that as soon
as an insurgent force leaves the mountains, the
Turkish forces are at once after it and dispose
oft easily if they reach it.
Of course the difficult work remains Of dis
lodging the insurgents from their mountain
GUS %stronghofds, but the approaching winter
will soon make those positions untenable. AS
for hopes of assistance they become daily
fainter.
Circumstance seem to favor the mission OF
peace Of he..Consular Commission.

vices from Herzegovina are satisfactory. The
insurgents now appear willing to negotiate
with the Consuls.
There have been no offensive movements
for several days. The latest encounters ter
minated in favour Of the Turks.

THE ARMY OF THE KHEDIVE.
Sept. 10.
It is said by army officers that General Sher-
man, in response to the request of the Khedive
of Egypt to recommend worthy men for appoint
ment in the Egyptian army, has been impartial,
and that he has suggested the names of as many
ex.Oonfederates as he has ex-federal officers.
The selection of Joseph e. Johnston was on
account of qualifications for a high command
worthy of the mans military ability. None Of
the federal generals cared to leave the country
TO engage in the service of a foreign potentate.
