CORsTANTINOPLE, Aug. 20.-Later in-
telligence from the scene Of insuTectiOn in
Herzegovina is satisfactory. The govern
ment of the provinces announces there is
less excitement among the people and an
ticipates prompt pacifcatiOn. The Rus
sian, Austrian and German Ambassador S
had prOtracted conference with the Grand
Vizier. IL is understood they advised sus-
pension of hOstilities, with view 10 afford
an opportunity for ascertaining the grieY-
ances Of the Insurgents. Turkey declined
to accede TO this proposition. The Russian
Ambassador had an interview with the Sui
tan, and afterwards the Grand Vizier was
summoned to the palace. The foreign Am
bassadOrs will meet at the Russian Ambas-
sey Saturday.
BRUSSELS, Aug. 20.-Le Nord, a Rus
sian organ, discussing the Turkish insur-
rection, says that Russia, Germany and
Austria are in accord on the point that the
Eastern question shall not be raised. Peace
has been temporarily disturbed, but the
general peace is secure beyond attack.
France and Italy will doubtless be invited
to join these three powers. Turkey must
recognize the need Of ending the intolera-
bic regime Of proceeding seriously with re-
form which has heretofore been mere pre-
tense.
a Vienna dispatch reports that the in
surgents had been forced to raise the siege
of Trebigne, and some have been driven
unarmed across the frontier.

fifty Turkish families perished when the
insurgents destroyed Burbi, and Suirjar.
LONDON, Aug. 2O.-The Vienna Nelg
Free Press is informed tLat the British
Ambassador recently informed the Sultan
Of the action of the three powers, pointing
out the significance of the step. a Vienna
political correspondent says the action of
the powers was a tender of friendly offices,
not Intervention; and thinks that the re-
fusal of Turkey TO accede ~ the PROPOSE
tiOns was not firal.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. 20.-It is Of
ficially stated that the news published in
foreign journals in regard to the Here
gOvinian insurrectiOn is much exaggerated.
The Turkish Government will soon have
$1,000 men concentrated in herzegovina.
II has been waiting until it is able to cOncen- /
lrate a sufficient force to crush the insur-
rectiOn with the least possible effusiOn Of
blood. Dernish Pasha has now been or
dered to take offensive steps. Powers en-
tirely friendly have requested facilities TO
with the insurgents with the |
purpose Of cOunseling submission TO the
Ottoman Government, and informing them
that they have nothing to hope for from
The Intervention Of foreign powers.
PARIS, Aug. 20.-The Memorial DiDiO- |
mGtiqUe says all powers have agreed in |
