THE TURKISH WAR.
LONDON, July Is.
All fears of a general European war have
almost entirely disappeared here since the pub
location of Earl Derby's speech in reply to the
deputation Of liberals who waited upon him
yesterday in relation to England's policy on
the Eastern question.
Many people, who are we'll informed on all
matters relating to tina East, anticipate that
the war will soon be closed by means, most
probably, Of general amnesty to the insur-
gents.
The Servians are disappointed because Rus
STA has not come to their assistance, as they
hoped she would when they resolved to take
the field, and do not feel sanguine Of being
able to fight the Turks single-hauded.
They have put forth nearly all their strength
and taxed their resources to the very utmost,
while Turkey is gathering troops every day
and concentrating them at the scene of action.
Turkey has 10000 men in the field, and
$4,000 more will soon depart from CONSTANT
nople for the theatre of war, making the dis
proportion between the C0ntending armies so
great as to leave almost no chance for the
weaker side except some other Power comes
to their assistance.
It is remarkable what energy and patriotism
have been developed among the Turks by the
war. In Constautinople and In many other
cities officials have given a months pay to the
army, and women are devOting their jewels to
the public service.
The only possible chance for Servia TO pro.
long the conflict would be a great victory in
the field.
