FOREIGN AFFAIRS.

LONDON, November l6.-Generals Hell
mann and Tergukassof have only about
$4,000 men, which is inadequate for a
regular siege Of Erzeroum. They must
carry it by assault or retire to Loghauli
mountain. They cannot subsist on the
army Of Deveboyune. The assault on
Fort Azizie was a hand to hand fight for
the trenches; the fort was carried at the
point Of the bsyonet; but Mehemet
Pasha rallied the Turks, who retook the
fort and repulsed the Russians with great
slaughter.
The M%ontenegrins have taken by as.
sault all the defenses of Autivari EXCEPT
the principal fort, which is damaged by
bombardment.

Unprecedented people are quite likely

Unprejudiced people who bold any

the border is that the Texans have been
great losers, but have submitted to all
their wrongs with q patience and forti

hope for q war merely because they are

New YORK, November l6. "A. A.
Lowe, one Of the committee of New York
bankers aud merchants who visited
Washington to demonstrate against the
passage by the senate Of the Bland
silver bill, says: Mr.. Bland gave US to
understand that bis constituents knew
perfectly well what they we're about, and
that they preferred to pay their debts in
silver rather than in gold. Moreover, as
a friend he advised the committee to &C.
cept the proposed measure, warning them
that if they did not by and by men would
be sent to congress who would wipe out
the whole debt as with a sponge.

and drove the white braves back, and
then they rushed across themselves,
and then they found that they had
q good deal to do. The trouble was
with the soldiers. They were so ex-
hausted, and their horses bothered them
so much they could not take good aim.
Some of their horses broke away from
them and left them to stand and drop
and die; all the men fell back fighting
and dropping. They could not fire fast
enough, though they kept in pretty good
order. They would fall back across a
coulie and make a fresh stand beyond on
higher ground. There were q great many
brave men in that fight, and from time
to time while it was going on they were
shot down like pigs. They could not
help themselves. One by one the officers
fell where the last fight took place.
