ESPECIAL D1ePATCH 10 THE HERALD By CABLE.
LONDON, July Is, 1876.
AL fears OF general European war have almost
entirely disappeared here SINCE the publication Of
Earl Derby's speech in reply TO the deputation Of
liberals who waited upon him yesterday In relation
to EngIand's policy on the Eastern question.
ANrIcIpArIoNs OF PEACE.
Many people, who are well informed on all matters
relating to the East, anticipate that the war viii
soon be closed by means, most probably of general
amnesty to the insurgents.
THE sERvIANs DISAPPOINTED.
The servians are disappointed because Russia has
not come to their assistance, as they hoped she
would when they resolved to take the field, and do
not feel sangulne Of being able to fight the Turks
single handed.
STRENGTH OF THE CONTESTANTS.
They have put forth nearly all their strength and
taxed their resources to the very utmost while
Turkey is gathering troops every day and conceu-
trating them at the scene Of action
THE OTTOMAN ARMY.
Turkey has 100000 men In the field, and so, 900
more will soon depart rum Constantinope for the
theatre of war, making the disproportion between
the contendng armies so great as to leave almost no
chance for the weaker side except other Power
comes to their assistance.
PATRIOTISM OF THE TURKS.
1t Is remarkable what energy and patriotism have
been developed among the Turks by the war. In
Constantnople and in many other cities officials
have given a months pay to the army. and women
are devoting their jewels TO the public service.
sERvIA's ONLY CHANCE
The only possible chance for Scrvia to prolong the
conflict would be great victory in the field.
