Tho lnsurrection In Turkey.

The disturbance which broke out only
O few weeks ago between the Herze-
govinians and their masters, the Turks,
has risen to the dimensions of a great
and spreading insurrection with marvel
GUS rapidity. From this little province
of $1,000 people rising against oppress-
i've taxation, the insurrection has spread
into the Province of Croatia on the north
and Bosnia on the east. Beyond these
provinces lie Servia, Wallachia, Bulgaria,
and Moldavia, already partially free, and
to the south of Herzegovina is the
quasi-neutral Province OF Montenegro,
all these provinces being in active SYM
pathy with Herzegovina, and hating the
Turks with the most violent hatred,
growing out not only of oppressive taxa
tion, hut also of race, language, manners,
traditions and religion. There is every
prospect, therefore, that the insurrection
of Herzegovina will speedily become the
insurrection of the northern provinces of
Turkey in Europe, and if it does, this
means the loss of those provinces to
Turkey, and the establishment of new
Slavonic nation, and if not that, their
absorption by Austria aud Russia.
The causes of the present revolt are
two in number-the one direct, the
other indirect. The direct cause is op-
pressive taxation the indirect cause is
the general one of difference in race and
religion; and the insurrection which
commenced in one province from local
cause bids fair to develop into general
insurrection of all the Slavonic provinces
upon the other causes of race and re-
lirion.-ChicaQo Tribune.
