RUSSIA AND Turkey The recent and sever
al defeats of Russian troops by the Turks are
quite notable in view of the supposd superiori-
~ of Russian resources of all kinds. There
is quite an anomaly between the boasts aud
the achievements of the Muscovites, while the
Turks, without any boasts, have accomplished
pronounced successes aud are for the present
masters Of the situation. 1t is true that the
Turks have great advantage in geographical
view, while the Russians are at reciprocal dis
advantage but even this status does not sat
ishctorily account for the preponderance OF
success to Turkish arms While the Turks,
with inferior resources Of all kinds. have been
using the best modern appliances of arms and
officers the Russians are notably deficient in
both these important mattsrs. Their Generals
are comparatively ignorant, their army or
ganzalion singularly imderfect, their arms,
artillery and means Of transportation of sup
plies are crude and inferior, and in maeters Of
command of troops there is utter recklessnes
in the rule that mere rank shall have the as
cendancy over military ability. Perhaps this
latter fact has bad very much to do with the
recent disasters to the Russians --Bdito Sun,

The Patent Office at Washington took FIRE
on Monday from an unexplained cause, serious
damage was done in that part of the bnilding
reserved for models Of patents. 1t is believed
that at least 10000 models of patents were
burned Such relics as the original draft of
the Declaration Of Independence, Gen. Wash
iug,on's swords and camp oquipage, &C., were
saved. The damage TO the building reached
nearly half a million of dollars, and portion
os the walls viii probably have to be rebuilt.
The FIRE department of Baltimore city was
called on and gave prompt and cheerful assis-
lance. Some property in the vicinity OF the
patent Office took fire, aud it is believed the
loss therefrom is considerable.

not inspire capital with confidence, and
the papers ofthat city tellto-day how it
was that the indomitable perseverance
OF one man redeemed it from ruin
while capital stood aloof and waited
for the result. Turning from the
modest outlook of 1870 to the firm
basis of 1877, we congratulate our
townsmen on the overwhelming evil
dences Of our present stability and
future prospects. The fact is concbn-
sively established that III mines have
yielded and are still yielding large
quantities of gold and silver. They
have been worked to a depth that
proves all theories antagonistic to
their pertnanence, false in fact and false
in conjecture. The problem of u
cesstul reduction has been overcome,
and the returns by smelling are as
sure as any other process. and the
only one applicable TO our ores.
Not only are the older and more

Aud fertile, but many Of those upon
which less work has been performed
are affording promise of equal value.
Our town has improved with the

and benevolent and literary societies.
Our population is industrious and
well-tO do and of a permanent charac-
ter; and in looking back over the past
seven years, we think we raj safely
prophesy that Eureka has hardly an
tered on her pros porous career. and We
congratulate our readers on the out

A NEW A

In entering upon che year of grace
1877, the SENTINEL is compelled to de-
vote most of its available space to a
brief statistical account of the rise and
progress of our town, a chronological
synopsis Of the important events OF
1876, and a tabulated statement of the
county finances. These, we believe,
will be found sufficiently full and ac-
curate to satisfy the wishes of our sub
scribers.
For ourselves we have but a few
words to say. The SENTINEL has, since
the first settlement of our town, been
a marked feature of the enterprise of
Eureka. 1t has ever sought to be a
fair exponent of local wants and local
progress. 1t has survived the dan
gers and the losses alike of fire and
flood. 1t has suffered; it has also
prospered, in common with the people
OF Eureka. In the future the SENTI
MEL will be thoroughly conservative
in politics, advocating, irrespective of
party, those measures of public policy
which we believe most conducive to
the national welfare. It's columns will
be mainly devoted to the publication
of the news Of the day, and the adj
vancement of our local interest and
the general welfare of our people.
Both Of the proprietors of the SENTI-
MEL have for many years received a
liberal patronage from tbs people OF
Eureka. For this patronage and for
all past favors they protier their heart
felt thanks; and 10 at the dawn of a
New Year they pledge themselves to
do all in their power to render them
selves in the future worthy of the kind
nesses of the past.
To all our patrons and friends, we
wish, with many returns, a most pros
porous and a most
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

this agreement resulted in the pro-

The Sultan said that he deeply re-

his powers were limited by the Con-

Lord Salisbury thereupon remarked
in that case Turkey must not count

The Sultan answered.: II is useless
