ON THE DANUBE.

Auoiher Battle on the Danube.
NEW YORK, July News comes from
turkish sources that great battle was fought
twenty miles south of Sistova on Friday and
Saturday, which resulted in a total defeat of
the Russians.
1t is also stated that the Turkish gunboats
have completely destroyed the Russian bridge
between Simnltza and Sistova, and the bridg e
which WAS being constructed near Ibrail.
Kiernan's despatch from Simnitza says the
Russians are reconstructing the bridge destroy
ed there by the storm Friday night. Thirty
pontoons were sunk. The crossing of the
troops meanwhile continues in boats
The Roumanian forces are preparing to cross
the Danube near Kalafat.
Starving Their Own to Spite the Russians.
1t is stated that the Turks are devastating q
large portion of Bulgaria for the purpose of
preventing the Russians from provisioning their
army there. The harvest has been carried off
fruit trees felled, and the torch applied to the
large grass plains. Everything that could be
OF any use to an invading army has been re-
moved or destroyed, and the people are in ut
ter restitution. CONSERVATION prevails among
the people,, who see nothing before them but
famine and pestilence, added to the horrors of
war.
Bucharest, July 2.-It is rumored here that
the Russian flying column has.entered Tirsova.
Battle at Biela.
LONDON, Jnly "A telegram sent from
Shumla yesterday morning says it is estimated
that &c, 009 Russians have crossed the Danube
at SistOva and begun forward movement to-
ward Biela, which was arrested by the Turks at
Pawlo. There were no details. but despatch
dated in the evening says the Russian advance
guard attacked Bela, but were driven back
upon Sistova with heavy loss Another battle
is expected.
A Shumla dispatch says the Turks are re.
moving the railway stock from Rustchuk to
Varna.
A despatch from Turnu Magurelli says no
Russians are crossing there, and probably
none will cross. The Russians made de.
monstration which would have been turned
into real attack had fair chance offered,
The bridge at Simnitza had been rebuilt last
evening.
What ROumanin Claims.
A Bucharest despatch says the objects to be
attained by Roumania in an offensive war
against Turkey are an acknowledgment of the
absolute independence of Roumana and the
dismantling of the Turkish forts along the
Danube, placing both banks on an equal foot
ing and insuring free navigation and perpetual
naturalization of that river. Roumania will
also claim full indemnity for war expenses and
the depredations of Turkish armies.

MEXICO.
Diaz orbids U. 9. Troops to Enter Mexi-
can Territory.

DAdZ OfUluB u .. troops 10 Enter MeXl.
can Territory.
WASHINGTON, July 2.-The new Mexican
Minister, Senior Mata, tonight exhibited his ex-
utive order to Gen. Trevino, in which President
Diaz instructs him to pursue and capture all
evil doors that commit robberies on Mexican
territory and seek to escape into the United
States, or who, having committed robberies on
the neighboring country have fled from justice
into Mexico. The latter will be dealt with un-
der the extradition treaty with the United
States
If, said President Diaz, it should be necessa.
ry to act IN accord with the military or civil au-
thorties of the United States, you will invite
the same SO that they shall cooperate with
you towards the success of the respective ope
ratlops. When you, on the other hand, receive
a like invitation from said authorities you will
zealousy endeavor to accede to it, doing every
thlng IN your power to capture criminals, This
agreement between the commanders of the au-
thorities OF both countries shall in no case au-
thorlze the passing of foreign troops into our
territory, an authorization which cannot be
granted by the President of the Republic be-
cause section 16, article r. of the Federal Con-
stitution reserves it exclusively to the Congress
OF the Union. In obedience to that law you
will by no means consent to the troops of the
United States entering our territory, and out of
respect to the sovereignty of that republic you
will likewise prevent Mexican forces from tres.
passing on foreign soil.
But as consequence of these restrictions
you will inform said commander that the gov
eminent of Mexico cannot allow foreign force
to enter national territory without consent of
the congress of the union, and much less that
said force shall come to exercise the acts of
jurisdiction as those expressed in the order
of United States war department. You will
repel force by force should the invasion take
place.
Gen. Mata emphatcally denies the truth of
the statement that his mission is to nenegotiate
the sale OF five northern states of Mexico to the
United States for one hundred million dollars
less the amount of our claims against Mexico
growing out of the border raids. He SAYS that
no government in Mexico which would pro-
pose to ALLEVIATE any portion of Mexican terri
tory could stand for single day.

Men and Women.

Bancroft, the historian, graduated from Har.
ward sixty years ago.
Mrs. Marion Adams, a sister of Mrs. Andrew
jackson, and wife of President Jackson's
adopted son, died at the HERMITAGE. near
nashville Tenn, on Thursday morning, aged
20 years, from the effects of fall which frac.
tured her thigh about a month ago.
Mrs. Sallie Ward Hunt, the once famous
belle OF Louisville, has placed over the graves
of two OF her husbands tombstone with this
inscription: "Vene P. Armstrong and Robert
2. Hunt; honored and loved upon deeds that
won home in heaven" The threatened suit
to break the will of Mr.. Armstrong on behalf
OF his disinhe rited son has been compromised
to the satisfaction of all concerned.

Count Worch. a German, who is building a
magnificent turreted house there, in which he
proposes to sell the Teutonic beverage. He is
man of superb presence, over six feet high,
with marked German features, light hair and
full blonde whiskers. He is on the best terms
with the German legation, and said by them to
be a count, son OF one of the richest among
their wealthy arstocrats, his adoption of this
business being the result of eecentricity. His
eider sister lives in great magnifcence in
Prussia where she is married to a Prnssian
baron, and the family are connected by mar
riage with most of the nobility of Prussia and
Germany.
Bismarck has been for some time STAYING at
