events of bis short reign, was pronounced
incapable of governing, and on the 3lst OF
August was deposed to make room for
Abdul Hamid the present Sultan. Early
10 September we find the Great Powers
unanimously urging the Porte to grant an
armistice, and discussing at the same time
how to bring about o settlement. Russia
proposed that the revolted provinces should
be erected into an independent State and
that Turkey should be compelled to grant
their independence by q join occupation
Russia to occupy Bulgaria with her
Southern army, Austria to occupy Bosnia,
and Great Britain to join with France In
sending q powerful fleet to Constantinople.
To this project both Austria and Britain
objected but the latter suggested that
while the provinces should remain subject
to the Porte, their internal administration
should be under their w control. It is
needless to say that neither of those
schemes was carried into execution.
On the 18th Of September the Porte
agreed to a suspension of hostilities for
seven days, but firmly declined to pro!ong
it, and fighting was consequently resumed.
The Powers did not cease to urge the
Porte 10 grant o sufficient armistice to
allow of negotiation, and inally, on Octo-
Der 10th, consent was given to a cessation
of hostilities for six months. Strange to
cay, this offer was refused by Servia, and
the Russian Government declined to Join
in forcing her to accept it, but proposed
instead an armistico of six weeks only.
The progress of events soon made it neces-
sary for Russia to take a bold step, and
insist on a short period Of truce. On the
last day OF October the difficulties of tho
Servian army came to crisis. The troops
had suffered q severe defeat, and now open
ly complained of their Russian officers, and
fatty refused to fight any longer, How
thoroughly Russian the cause was. now
plainly appeared ; for General Tgnatieff, the
Russian Ambassador, informed the Porte
the sameday that unless an armistice for two
months woro concluded within Eorty-eight
hours. he would leave the capital, or in
other words, Tint the Porte might consi-
der itself at wal with Russia. The Otto
man Government yielded to this pressure,
and declared on armistice on condition
that all parties should remain in the posi-
tions which they then occupied, Thus
was she Servian wal brought to a stand,
to the great relief of the Servians; but to
the annoyance of the Montenegrins, who
bad been getting on very we'll among
their mountains, and were apparently on
the verge of q great triumph.
This brings Us down to the events of
the last few months, which must be we'll
known to all The Conference Of tho
Powers at Constantinople, its failure, tho
subsequent Protocol, its rejection by
Turkey, and the outbreak of the war.

ED. REPUBLICAN, -
AS peace and quiet reigns supreme
over our country, and nothing of a
bulldozing nature in successful opera

Presidents term of office, we can now
turn our attention to our daily avoea.

Times are Frightening up some !;
produce is bringing fair prices at pres
ent. Farmers are at present busily
engaged planting corn, and the acre
age of this crop this season will be
larger than any time heretofore, for
corn is the staple crop, and can be
cultivated with less cost than any 9th
er crop; great many may doubt this
but it is fact that corn can be grown
on our western prairies with less cost
than small grain.
The weather is mild and pleasant
but very dry. Trouting at present is
lively for those who have nothing else
to do. One of the state fish commits.
sioners a few days since, brought 45,.
600 young trout FIVE weeks old from
the Millspriug Hatchery and placed
them in a small stream some two miles
from here. During the last five years
the State has supplied a majority of
the small streams of this State with
those little speckled fellows, and at
three years of age they are large
enough to amuse our ameteur fisher
men. tas utHut fe gun1
Our hopgrowers are at present set
ting the poles in their yards, as this
county is considered the best adapted
for this crop of any locai ity in the
west the result is that many of our
farmers have turned their attention to
hop culture. One of my nefghbors has
at present sixteen acres of hops. ~
The Black Hills appears to be the
point of attraction at present, for we see
occasionally atrain crossing the prai-
rie toward the setting sun, and | not
iced one wagon with this sign :"Black
Hills or bust" My opinion is that
there are two chances Of "bust, to one
to the contrary.
We intend to have a reunion of the
old sixth Wisconsin Light Battery at
this place on the 22d ef the present
month. This old organization re-
mains as Que of the land marks of the
late rebellion. 1t was with this com.
pany that your correspondent first
learned to know the value of "Hard-
tack" and from 1851 to 1865 this
battery done good service in the West
ern Department, joining in all the prin-
cipal engagement under Rosecrantz,
Grant, Sherman, Mcpherson, and
Fighting Joe Hooker.
At present the ground is very dry
and the streams are very low. The
Wisconsin river is very low and raft
men complain Of making Hiandspiks"
trips this spring. The Mississippi riy-
er is also very low for this season of
the year.
