TURKEYS NAVAL STRENGTH,

The military contributor of the
Cologne Gazetta observes, in an arti-
Gle on the nayies Of the Mediterra-
mean, that by far the strongest naval
power on that sea is Turkey. All the
ir0nclads Of her fleet are of recent con-
struction, and most of them have
come from the best English ship
builders; the German ironclad KOnig
jtd.im was originally built for the
Turkish Government. The plates of
the Turkish ironclads are from 1-2 to
inches thick 1.-TWO of the casemate
shin5 have 9-inch plates), and they are
armed with 8-inch and 9-inch Wool
Wich muZle-loaders, and LKrupp
breeah-loaders. Turkey has four
iroDcIad fiigates of 3,O5O horse
power and G4 guns, six casemate ships
each Of zoo horse power and 5 guns,
and three turret-ships of 1900 horse
power and II guns, making in all tif-
teen ironclads with $3.50 horse power
and I16 guns. To these should be
added three ironclad gunboats of 24O
Danube, and two ironclad gunboats
on tho Lake Of Scutari, each with 60
horse power and two guns. The screw
ships are also for the most part we'll
built and equipped They consist Of
four ships Of the linz, thirteen frigates
and coryettes, twenty-five avisos, and
twcujy-seycn guuboats and coasting
vessels, besides l01 transport ships,
ali largo and mostly well armed. The
actual strength Of the available fleet
of Russia on the Black Sea cannot at
present be accurately estimated, but
the writer thinks there can be no
doubt that il is far inferior to that of
The Turkish feet Austria has four
ironclad casenate ships of 5000 horse
power and 60 guns, and seven IRON
clad lrigates Of 1850 horse power and
$50 guns. Three Of these ships, how
ever, arc now being rebuilt, and most
OF the others DO not fulfill the require
mcnts Of modern naval warfare, either
as regards the thickness of their plates
q tho ualibre Of their guns. This re-
mark applies even more to the Italian
irenoial ships, several of which are to
be sold by auction this month, in Or
der to obtain funds for constructing
uCw ones more suitable to modern re-
,suirrmtptt

NovEL TREATMENT FOR WOUNDS.

con the 9TH Of the present month I
accidentally jumped from an elevation
OF three OF four feet on a large nail or

strongest narcotics. [ slept but little

Same treatment was continued, with
the application of u hop poultice to the
