RUSSIA ASIA MINOR.
Russian Preparations for the war.
Nav York Tribute.

The Russian army in Asiatic Turkey,
rs originally organized, composed q
corps Of over 900 men, commanded
by the Grand Duke Michael, brother Of
the Gar. Our dispatches state that the
Russians are still sending large bodies
of troops to swell his army. The Rus
SLAMS since the Crimean war have con-
structed their roads with reference to
possible wars in this very section, and
their communications are now perfect.
She has q railroad running from the
Don to the foot Of the Caucasus, and
has reduced the time Of travel to two
| days. Across the mountains she has
constructed n fine maoadamized road,
extending to Trlflis, on the kur, through
the valley Of which she has a perfect
easy approach into Armenia. The gov
ernment. therefore, is within few
days communication with the Asiatic
army. and can furnish troops and sup
plies to it without any danger of inter
ruption. The Turks, on the other hand
having but small army, under COM
mand Of Hassan Pasba-small, because
Asia Minor has already been compare
lively drained to supply the European
army-have no communication with
Constantinople, either by railroads or
good highways, and must subsist off the
communication via the Black Sea and
Trebizonde to Erzeroum would be inev-
itably disturbed by the Russians. 1t is
also always to be taken into account in
connection with the Asiatic campaign
the probability that Persia is in alliance
with Russia. and that, while the
Turkish troops are engaged with the
Russians in Armenia, the Persians,
whose territory extends to the very foot
of Mount Ararat, can pour in an army
Of at least 10000 men to the southwark
and attack the Turks on the flank, Not
withstanding Turkish dispatches Of vic
tories. the progress Of the Russian army
through Armenia eastward towards the
Bosphorus to cooperate with the Euro
pean army is morally certain. 1t may
be many weeks, even months, but the
time will come when the Turks must
find themselves driven south Of the
Balkans and hemmed in between two
powerful Russian armies. where they
will be crushed like an egg she'll, leav-
ing Russia in complete possession of
the Black Sea.

TWEED RECEIVERS HIS CHECKS,
O'Brien's LITTLE Game with these Checks.
[Oincinnati hnqulrer.l

[Oincinnati hnqulrer.l
Tweed has recovered his checks, and
Is again happy. The story very gene
rally credited is that the person who
had these checks is Carolin O'Brien
Bryant, who, it is alleged, represented
himself to Tweed as the confidential
agent of Charles O'Conor, and obtained
from him, as at Mr.. O'Conor's request,
about fifty checks of various prominent
men, and also an affidavit by Tweed de-
failing the manner of the frauds in the
passage Of the charter. This affidavit
was written out by Bryant and signed
by Tweed without examination, and
contains many interlineations which
Tweed says be never authorized. Fre-
uuent demand was made on Bryant for
the return of the checks, and finally
learning that some of them had been
offered for sale to Hugh Hastings, Hugh
Smith and others, Tweed authorized
Mr.. Townsend to apply formally to
Mr.. O'Conor for their return. Mr.
Townsend learned to his astonshment
that Mr.. O'Conor had not only not au-
thorized the application for the checks
and affidavit, but that since December
Is, 1876, Mr.. O'Conor had really no con-
nection with the case. Thereupon Mr..
Townsend applied to Bryant for the
checks. and yesterday morning COM
PEELED the restitution Of them.

STAMP SALES AT SMALL OFFICES.

WASHINGTON, April 3o.-The traffic in
postage stamps by fourth-class post
masters is one which the department
for the last two years has been trying
TO break up, but without success. The
abuse can only be corrected by legisla-
ton. That Congress thus far has re-
fused to grant. Investigations made by
the department have disclosed some
very interesting facts in regard to this
traffic. For instance, in fifty given
offices for the two years previous to the
change by the law Of 1874 the aggregate
compensation of the postmasters was
S12. 900. For the two years following
the compensation Of postmasters in the
same Offices amounted to $4,000. The
average annual salary before 1874 was
$242, after that year it was $1,000.
AS the percentage paid to postmasters
on the sale Of postage stamps decreases
as the amount Of these stamps increases,
it follows that the Government suffers q
loss on the. stamps sold at small offices
to be used within the delivery Of the
larger ones; and an estimate made by
the postoffice department of the amount
OF this loss since the passage Of the act
Of 1874, shows it to have been about
s2.ooo,ooo. The old system Of fixing the

ing beyond getting Joubert's name In
the lists for the Naval Office.
Pitkins resignation has been asked
for, but the young man seems inclined
TO stick. and thus far has failed to re-
spond. The belief at the White House
ig that he is acting under advice OF
Blaine and Kellogg. He will be removed
soon IL his resignation is not forthoom-
ing.
Aside from Joubert's slender chance
for the Naval Office, the only change IN
the programme telegraphed last nlght
ia that Garter has withdrawn his appi-
cation for Territorial position. Inc
reasons for this step are believed TO be
disagreement between Carter ana

postmasters' salaries by the number OF
stamps cancelled was found by the de-
partment to be less susceptible OF
abuse. In the long run the number of
stamps cancelled at given office was
about equal to the number sold at the
same office. and one account of the post
master was therefore check upon the
other. Under the present system there
Is no check whatever, MS the postmaster
is not required to state under oath how
he has disposed OF the stamps furnish
ed, or to whom he has sold them. so
long as he regularly accounts for them.
Congress will probably be asked again,
at the extra session, TO pass an act re-
storing the system of ascertaining the
salaries OF postmasters OF the fourth
class.
