WELCOMING THE RUSSIANS AT
MATCHIN.

A correspondent gives the following
account of the crossing of the Danube at
Matchin, in the Dobrudsha, opposite
Braila, and of the welcome extended
to the Russians ON entering the town.
The Russian advance guard crossed the
Danube in boats, but afterwards were
transported to the Turkish side of the
river in barges. These barges were pro-
tected at the side by huge wooden bull
Warks, built up to the height of a man,
with loopholes through. them. These
bulwalks would ward off bullet, but
hardly she'll. General Zimmerman.
commander Of one of the Russian corps
in the DObrudsha, soon after tie
Russian vanguard entered Matchin
went over TO its assistance with 1000
more soldiers. AS soon as the lnbabi-
tants saw the heavily laden barees COM
ing they formed into a procession and
came down to the shore with banners.
holy pictures taken from the churches.
and various other religious emblems.-
They we're led by three priests and some
other church dignitaries in full canonical
robes, who met the Russian troops chant
ng hymn. General Zimmerman took
OIL his cap and kissed the little wooden
cross that was presented to him, while
with bunch Of green leaves they splash
ed any amount Of holy water over his
head and in fact almost drenched him.
Each of those who followed were treated
with the same copious shower-batb. and
as the day was hot and all we're i'm a fer
nble perspiratlOn, the ordeal was bv M
means all unpleasant one. Tie neonIe
then greeted the troops with loud hrr.
rahs, and marched after them, manifest
ing the most eXtravagant joy especiaiIv
the boys, whose delight was as unbounJ-
ed as it was troublesome. Nevertheless
IN spite of the grOtesque about it all, this
reception of the conquerors by the con-
quered, Of the invaders by the invaded.
lad profound political Significance
which the Turcophiles, if there were any
present, would have done well to ponder.
These people, instead of looking upon
the Russians as enemies and conGuerors
and invaders and oppressors, hailed them
with delight and satisfaction as their de-
ilverers tlom degrading and terrible

TORONTO, Ont, July 16.-Arter higl
mass yesterday at St. Michaels Cathe-
dral, Archbishop Lynch in the course ol
an address, adverted to the disturbances
in Montreal, and said be was glad to be
able to state that the bishop and clergy Of
that city, as well as leading members OF
national and other societies, endeavored
by every means in their power to prevent
trouble. The feuds and bitter animosi-
ties of the Old World should have no
place in our prosperous new country,
seeing that no good can arise from sense
less displays. He wished the government
would put stop to all party professions
inasmuch as they engender bad feeling
and lead to strife and contention.

BASE BALL.Lone of the most fines

BASE BALL.-One of the most finest
games of base ball that has ever been
played in this city, took place yesteI-
day between the Quickstep and De-
tiance Of Philadelphia, the champion
club of that city. The home club ap-
peared with their new nine with the
exception of Morris, TIE pitcher vino
was unablet to get here.
Stratton took his position, and beyond
doubt, again proved that he is an ex-
cellent pitcher, Cafl behind the bat did
well, not having an error, while Blogg at
frst base, and Say as short stop, are a
whole team Of themselves.
Butler at second and Minchet at left
played without an error. The game
was hotly contested one and resulted in
favor Of the home team by score Of 0 to
z. About 400 persons were inside to
witness the gPme. The superior batting
and playing Of the home club won the
game. They are certainly an exceeding.
ly strong batting team.

THE POTATO BUG ABROAD

The crossing of the Atlantic by the
potato bug divides the attention of
Europe with The passage of the Danu
by the Russians. To some countries
of the Continent it is the far more i'm
portant event Of the two. Our Fellow
citizen, if not friend, of Colorado, has
already been heard from on his Euro
pean travels at several of the Baltic
ports, at Cologne on the Rhine, and in
an Irish petato-feld, which may be the
cradle of his race, and where at all
event he feels very much at home. The
English papers make great deal of
CHASTITY fun out of this unwelcome lit
tie stranger. Even the London Times
handles him in facetious vein; but
the editorial of the regulation column
length which it gives to doryphord
decemtinedtd is proof of the deep
anxiety his coming causes in the Biz
ish mind. While the London papers
are trying to make jokes about the
beetle, the matter-of-fact Privy Coun-
Gil (Which has charge of all the plaques
and epldemics in England) treats him
in mole serious fashion. The Coun-
Gil publishes for general Information
the best methods discovered for killing
off the potatoe bug. These are already
uDhappily too familiar to the Ameri-
can public. 1t is fortunate for England
that she has our extended experience
In warning with this pest; and by it
she will probably save crops worth
millions of pounds, if she does not ex-
terminate the beetle before he has
done much damage. In this country
the farmers now understand how to
manage him ;and where they have been
watchfui and diligant, the potato crop
this year is good ard even tlourishing.
The cheapest and most effeclual remedy
yet found in the United States is the
actual picking off and destruction of
the bugs by hand; and in Europe, where
Inc price of labor is low, this will also
be the surest and best reliance.
