course pursued met his entire approval
Tweeds socallcd confession was carefully
examined, and the prisoner was questioned by the
Attorney General Dstrict-Att0rney Whitney, ana
Wheeler II. Peckham. He made many promises but
stated few facts and offered no testimony which

LATEST FOREIGN NEWS.
THE PASSAGE OF THE DANUBE.


TIE CAR sUPERvIsEs PART OF THE MOVEMENT
THE CROSSING EASIER THAN ExPKCTED-LATER
DETAILS.
BUCHAREST, Friday. June 80 1877
The Russian officials are az surprised as the gen.
cral public at the ease with which the crossing OF
the Danube has been effected aud at the sightness
of the resistance.
The Turks seemingly made up their minds that
the passage would be attempted at Turnu Magureli.
The tremendous bombardments of Nlkopolis also
served to divert attention and confirm them IN TINS
opinion. The greater portion of the troops now at
Turnu Magureli have eived orders to march upon
Simnitza aud cross there
The news from Sstova is that the Turks have
completely wasted the country around that place.
aud that neither food nor forage is obtainable.
The following are additional details of the Sim
nitZa crossing: At o'clock in the evening OF the
Goth of June everything was in motion and at z
o'clock in the morning landing was effected and
the Tete dc pont secured. The first pontoon was in
position at 3 o'clock and it is extremely probable
that the bridges at Snmtza and Petroceni are com
peted before this and that artillery, cavalry and
munitions are passing over The losses in the two
asairs of Petroceni and Simnitza are estimated by
the best authorities at less than 1000.
The Turks were driven back from the landing
place nj Sistoya mt the point of the bayonet About
o o'clock he Turkish infantry, 5000 in number,
made an attack on the troops which bad landed. but
were repulsed by the musketry of the brigade,
which soon afterward occupied the nights.
Sistova viii be occupied tomorrow. The crossings
near Vase. Turnu. and Simnitza were made uld'r
the eye of the Car, who stood on the mountain Oh
C,rnpayi.

In reply to d suggestion that it
would be well to recognize Nichols
at once and thus settle the whole
trouble, Mr.. Hayes is reported to
have said that the idea of pfesi-
Dental recognition itself was part
OF the very system OF Interference
of which the Southern people cou-
planned. He remarked that, for
example, he could not recognize
Gov. Robinson, of New York, and
intimated thSt the most that could
be expected oil him WAS that he
should not interfere in the matter,
