remarkable way The current belief, based
chiefly on the collapse of the odessa
trade, that the financial position OF Rus
sia is such as TO etfectually disable her
from entering upon foreign war. 1t is
to the effect that the St. Petersburg Gov
ernment applied, few months ago, to
an eminent firm OF financiers to negotiate
loan. At that time the position of
Russia appeared thoroughly secure, and
taking, but, on the faith of it, made an
advance of more than a million. Now,
