THE EASTERN WAR.

LONDON, Dec. Ala Vienna cOrrespon-
dent telegraphs, that. although all appre-
tensions of the Seragli0 cOnspIracles and
coup d 'etat at ConstantinOple seem to have
disappeared. the least thing is sufficient to
revive them. This unexpected appearance
of Suleiman Pasha at COnstantlnOple with
ten thousand men has given rise to fears
that something of the kind Is impending.
In these circumstances it is not surprising
that the Sultan and his government should
seek support in parliament and make 1t
share in the responsibility for the course to
be followed. This movement OF Suleiman
Pdsha, and other reports OF the withdrawal
oil the Turkish field forces from about has
grad, seem to indicate that in the quadrl-
lateral the necessary garrisons have been
left to make the best defence they can.
IL appears, moreover, that their ener-
gies will soon be taxed, for it Is officially
announced that Gen. Todleben has been
appointed commander n-chlef Of the Rust
chuk army. This looks very much as if
the siege of Rustchuk is imminent. Like
wise, Gen. Zimmerman will probably seize
the opportunity of advancing against
Silistria. There Is nothing as yet to lndI-
cate the destination of the bulk OF the army
of the Czarewitch, whether n is to advance
on Shumla or to Join the force at Tirnova,
and thence advance across the Balkans. 1t
will take some time before operations on
large scale will be possible. although the
movement of troops from Pleyna in various
directions has begun Some days must
pass before the influence at work at the
front is felt.

much He asked the court for liberal
time to prepare for eternity Judge Pot
ter, addressing :he prisoner, told him how
zealOusly ne had been defended. and that

IN. and 3 p. m. on that date you will be
taken to the place of execution and hung
by the neck Until you are dead and may
