THE WAR IN TURKEY.

Since our last issue there nave been
several desperate engagements between
| divisions of the Russian and Turkish
armies in Armenia and Bulgaria. These
engagements have not, however, changed
the sfafn quo of either army or led to any
decisive results. A desperate fgh. took
place on last Saturday near the little vii
lage, Kuruk Dara, about twenty miles
northeast of Kars. The Turks brought
on the fight by attempting to flank tho
right of the Russian defensive position.
The two armies fought all day and the
Turks failed to accomplish their object.
The less Oh both sides in killed md
wounded was very heavy. Gen. Melikof'
commanding the Russion army in Arme-
,iia, and Mukhtar Pasha commanding the
Turkish led their respective force. In
Bulgaria the fighting on Friday. Saturday
aud Sunday in Sbinka Pass vas heav--
Gen. Radctzky with small force succeed
in holding the Pass up to Sunday against
the whole army of Suleiman Pasha. It
is important to the Russians to hold this
Pass to prevent the union Of the forces of
| Sule' man Pasha, south of the Balhans
with lose of Osman Pasha, north. They
may not be able to do so, but if they
should fail the Turkish army will be SO
weakened by its repeated battles to force
the Pass as to render its efficiency very
much impaired before it can form union
with Osmsn Pasha. In these engage
ments the Russian General Dorcschinsky
was killed, and Gen. Tchoutchowassoff
wounded. Such is the situation of the
contending armies, now facing each other,
that we msy expect desperate fighting
from this time until winter closes the
campaign.
Affairs in Europe in consequence Of this
war are very much complicated. Russia
is threaten , with rebellion in Poland :;
Turkey in Crete, Thessaly and ether
Provinces. Servia threatens to unite her
forces with the Russians and make a
common cause against the Turks, while
Austria declares her intention to .-ccupy
Sarvian territory with her army, il Serv;a
should engage in the fight. Prussia is
ready with Russia and Italy to remodel
the map of Europe, by which tho Ma
homedan power will DO banished from
Europe, and the leading powera receive
large accessious of territory.

Ex-State Treasurer Cardozo, who, it
will be remembered, is under arrest for
malfeasance in Office, and who gave bail
for his appearance ct Court, has taken q
trip to New York, and one day last week
some of his furniture was found at rail-
road depot in Columbia for shipment.
1t was Immediately attached and it's
Transmission slapped, It e ss:d, By bis
hondsmen, who feared that the furniture
was all they would get with which to
pay his forfeited bail bond. The ex-
Treasurer's friends, however, say that he
will shortly return to Columbia, and that
the attachment of his furniture was nm
warranted. It Is, however, believed by
the public that the name of Cardozo may
justly be added to the exodus list of es-
republican State officials, and that he
will forfeit hiu bail rather than come to
trial.

A most fearful tornadore passed over
portions of Iowa on the 25th inst, doing
immense damage to property wherever it
struck the earth. Fortunately in many
places 1t passed in the air without COM
ing to the ground, but at Council Bluffs,
on the Missouri River, It came down like
the swoop of an Eagle, and wrsnched of
two spans ofthe celebrated iron bridge at
that point. They were 25O feet each In
length, and were totally destroyed. The
fury of the storm has seldom been equall-
ed in this country.

The financial investigating committee
have been in session in the city of Col
umbia for the past two weeks and will
conclude its session during the present
week. They havo examined very large
number of State bonds, but the character
of their report to the General Assembly
is not at present developed. It is to be
hoped all bonds have been closely scru-
tinized, and that the committee will
discriminate between the bonds that are
valid, and those for which the State never
received any consideration.

Considerable excitement prevails in
Texas and Mexico over the organization
of State volunteer force of $500 men,
to punish the marauders upon Texas
soil. At first it was thought this force
was to cross the line and attempt to pun
ish the raiders, but Governor Hubbard
says the force will only be used inside of
the State. He has found the United
States either unable or unwilling to pro-
tect the people Of Texas from Mexican
depredations, and hence bss taken the
matter into his owr hands, and will try
the use Of militia on the thieves.

tice. 1t is an important session, and
will, no doubt, develope much Of the
work which has been done by tho Tnves-
tigating Committee. The evidence which
will DC brought before them, it ia thought
will secure the presentment of numerous
ex-State officials, and upon those findings
and presentmcnts, acquisitions will no
doubt be issued, to secure che presence Of
some of our former rulers who have SO
unceremoniously taken leave Of us.
