RESULTS OF THE RECENT
RUSSIAN SUCCESSES
LONDON, Oct. 81, 1877.

LONDON, Oct. 21, 1877.
The headquarters of the Prince of
Roumania and General Todleben
have beeh removed removed to Bogot
in order, as alleged by correspond
ent, that Poredin may be prepared
for the Gear, will take up his quarters
there. ...
Details of the affairs at Gorny Dub
rik and Telesche make it certain that
they are more than mere raids on the
Turkish communications; that, in fact
they are part of new Russian move
ment involving an entire change
Fof front, which is srill further devel-
oped by the transfer of the Roumanian

Telesche was surrounded on the 2Stb
inst. by, one cavalry and two infantry
brigades of the Imperial Guard and
one brigade of Cossacks. 1t as bonn
bardeded for two hours from seventy
two guns, when the small Turkish
garrison surrendered. There was no
assault, and the number of killed and
wounded on both sides was insignifi-
cant.
The capture of Telesche indicates
that the Russians have firm hold on
the Plevna and Sofia road; but it isnot
yet certain that Plevna is entirely sur
rounded. The road to Wlddin, by
way of Rahova, it is believed, is still
in possession of the Turks and that
Ghazl Osman Pacha will make a des-
perate effort to keeplt.
The Turkish Losses.
A special despatch from Poredin
says "The Turkish loss at the cap
ture by the Russians of the position
near Gurni-Dubnik On October IA,
was atleast four thousand killed, be-
sides wounded and prisoners. The
Russians only succeeded in storming
the at position the third attempt.

"They acuse the Turks oftwice lur-
Ing them under destructive fire by

Prepared to Hold on.
A Bucharest correspondent says the
Russians are fortifying the positions
at DubniR and Telische, as they are
threatened with combined attack
by Osman and Chevket Pachas.

An Erzeroum special despatch says
that Mouhktar and Ismsil Pachas have
retired to strong position near Has

The Reliance HOfSeS.-After several
hours of hard work the members of the
Reliance s. f. E. Co., who were engaged
in trying to raise their horses which were
drowned yesterday morning, succeeded
in getting them loose from the wagon
and towed them up to Moore's shipyard,
from which place they were hauled away
and buried. The wagon was also raised
and found to have been damaged but
slightly, mostly by those endeayoring to
raise it by the use of boat hooks, thus
partly tearing out one side.
The Company held meeting last
evening, and after generating their
driver from all blame, appointed the fol-
lowing gentlemen as a committee to pur-
chase pair of horses for the use of the
company: Messrs. E. F. Murphy, John
O'Donnell and N. Moore. The commit
tee have visited several parties having
horses to sell, but as yet have been una
BILE to find pair to suit their purposes.
Safe Enldrged.-The safe in the Of
flee of the City Engineer, Tenth and
King streets, is being enlarged by having
one end extended seven feet. This en-
largement is rendered necessary by the
accumulation of valuable papers in the
City Engineers office, which have to be
stored in the safe. Engineer Conwell
saws this safe is one of the best he ever
heard of, as it keeps all the books and
papers as dry as chips. 1t is surrounded
by an 18-inch double wall with hollow
SPACE of four inches in the centre, which,
with openings at the safe door, and small
interstices in the wall, affords constant
circulation Of air around the safe,
thus insuring dryness and9freedom from
must. The safs. in the City Treasurers
office, on the contrary, is inclined to be
damp and musty, and cannot be kept
closed any considerable length OF time
with safety to its contents.

THE LOPEZ GEM CASE

A brief notice appeared in the GAzErTE
OF Saturday last under the head of
'sEsqu1re Frazer's Court'' which stated
that Mason Loper brought suit against
Newton Gem, for assault and battery.
and the latter was required to pay costs
A notice appeared In one OF the city
papers yesterday, criticising the action Of
OF the Justice, and further stating that
Loper was in Gems house abusing him,
and when ordered ordered out refus sed to
go, and upon Gem taking him gently by
the arm, and putting him out, Loper
brought suit.
The facts Of the case are about as fol-
lows; On the Path of this month Mason
Loper was In possession of push cart.
bor owed from Joseph Dickson, in Wal
nut street. After Loper had gone to work
GEM went to his house and asked his
wife to loan him the cart as he desired to
wheel some things up from the wharf.
After he came back from the wharf he
took the wheels off and put them and the
cart into his yard. When Loper arrived
home in the evening from work his wife
informed him of what she had done and
that the cart had not been returned.--
Loper then went to Genus store, and
asked for the car, but Gem informed him
that he could not have until he paid a
small bill he owed him. Loper then in
formed Gem that the cart was borrow
ed one, and he had to return it. Gem
replied that it made no difference he
could not have the cart, and ordered
Loper out of his store. Loper started to
go back at a slow space, when Gem sud-
denly took hold of him, and kicked him
out of the door. The witnesses all tes-
titled that Loper did not use any abusive
or indecent language toward Gem
The reason that the cart was loaned
by Mrs. Loper to Gem, was because he
is local preacher, and she thought it
was all right.

THE labor riots, s'extending from the
lakes 10 the Ohio, and from the Atlantic
TO the Mississippi" greatly surprised the
European outlookers, and their com.
ments are many colored, depending upon
the kind Of spectacles they use. The
English and Germans for the most part
regard it rs temporary outburst which
MAY have its compensations in more
careful and business-like management
and in new precautions. The French
legitimists and imperialists are using 1t
effectively in the political campaigns
against the republicans. They affirm
that aft is the nxtaral tendency for Re-
publics to run into anarchy, and to perish
by their own weakness. II is impossible
for government to be strong that 10
based on universal suffrage. The legisla-
tive bodies of the United States are mo-
toriously corrupt; Liquidation is bought
and sold, and superior intelligence is
more subject Of prescription than of
preference and encouragement. Every
year the standard of American rulers and
Legislators is declining" "Rspublicanism
is dead in the United States" they say,
and it would be madness to perpetuate it
in France. The right of suffrage In the
hands of incendiaries and communists 10
not very pleasant fact, we must confess.
