The most powerful Russian iron
clad lie the mastless turret-ship Pc
ter the Great, built at Cronstadt and
launched in 1874. It carries two
turrets with an armament of four
35-ton guns, made of Krupp steel.
Next to this great ship the largest
of the other ironelads are the three
armored frigates, the Sevastopol,
KnIaZ Pojarski, and the Duke of
Ediuburg. The Sevastopol is 800
feet long and 50 feet wide. Her
plates are AZ inches thick, fastened
to q double coating of teak Of from
six to nine inches thick. In view of
war, changes have been made in the
distribution of the feet. Accor-
ding to q recent account the Russian
heet in the Black Sea now consists
of two circular monitors, -four screw
covrettes, seven paddle steamers, and
four gunboats with an armament of
IO2 guns. This naval force, of
course, is considerably below the
strength of the Turkish fleet, each
vessel of which lie afoat in or near
the Black Sea. In the Baltic the
Russian fleet, according to the same
report, cansists of % ironolads, IS
unarmored steamers, and number
of smaller aud weaker vessels, rep

Caleb Cushing says upon the sub
ject of the eastern war:
p ~ came home by way of France.
There was much excitement on the
continent pending the threatened
war, which has now commenced.
A war like that must result in great
good to our country. There is,
however, no necessity for the ad-
vance of 50 barrel on flour, for
that is speculative. If the fight
should be confined to Russia and
Turkey, the demand for our bread
stuffs will even then be heavy, for
the Russians will not allow their
cereals to be exported while they
are at war, and besides the produ-
cling class will have to join the ar
my more or less. 1t threatens to be
a great war, and if England gets in
to it there will come an opportuni-
ty to recuperate our commerce. We
will have to pass some law or pro.
vide some way by which we can
gather in the English commercial
marine under our flag. 1t is des.
tined to be Americas chance, and
we must avail ourselves of it."

LONDON, May 5.-Russia is said to
have effected loan of one hundred
thousand million francs in Paris,
from the French, German and Dutch
bankers.
Let US see. One hundred thou
sand million francs is, say, twenty
thousand million dollars, or ten
times the entire national debt of the
United States. We guess that the
"French, German and Dutch bank
ere" have not lent Russia twenty
thousand millions of dollars at one
time, unless they have some large
funds in other worlds than this to
draw from.

A .usLa of English Experience

In the midst of our distress, re-
snltant from the stagnation of bust
ness combined with high taxes, it is
in order to quote from the remarks
of Lord Brougham, in the British
Parliament, qS16,) when England
was trying the very same financial
experiments which our government
is repeating. He said;
Il, is supeTAuous to say anything
on the amount and universally OF
the distress which exists in the coun-
try at the present time. That Hn-
happily is a matter of notoriety and
is universally admitted. If any
doubt could exist upon the subject
it would be removed by the petition
presented this very MIG ut from Cam
bridgeshire in which it is stated that
every single individual in a parish
in that county with one exception
has become bankrupt or a pauper,
and that that one In consequence has
fallen from afiiueRce to ruin from
the rates all falling upon him." (See
Alison's History, I'd series, vol. l.,

Great progress has beed made in
the strength and efficiency of the
Russian navy. 1t consists of two
great divisions - the Baltic and
Black Sea fleets. Each of these two
fleets are again subdivided into
sections of which three are
usually stationed in or near

telligent officers, and obtains the
most efficient of the recruits. Ev-
erv regiment of feld artillery ia
provided with l6 batteries of six
guns each all the guns of the horse
artillery are rifled Armstrong;, but
the mountain artillery has only
small guns of which q whole bate
ry produces less effect than q single
Armstrong. The fortress artillery
consists of six regiments. Prior to
the outbreak of the war the number
of the Turkish troops in Bulgaria
was estimated at $4,000 infartry,
1900 artillery and ZIG guns. In ad-
dition to this force there are 5000
gunners in the fortresses of Vsrna
Shumla, Rutschuk, Sillistria, Mkt
poll, and Widden. The army in
Bulgaria was distributed as
follows: Tultsha, 1000; Sill

TURKISH NAVAL ARMAMENTs.
The war fleet of Turkey consis-
ted, at the end Of the year 1875. of
20ironclad ships and 20 other steam
ers. The greater number of the
ironclads were made in great Brit
ain. the two largest are the sister
ships Mesoudive and Mondoubiie,
launched in 1874. These two iron
clads are each of q burden of dis
placement of 1900 tons and 1872 feet
long, with extreme breadth of SO
feet. They are built on the broad
side principle, and have on the main
deck a battery 14S feet long con-
tanning II 1S-ton guns, throwing
400 pound shot. The bow is strong
ly fortified and fitted with a ram OF
great strength, adapted to pierce an
opponent below the armor in the
most vulnerable part. The armor
is from ten to twelve inches thick
throughout. There are SIX 20 poun-
ders on the upper deck.
Among the other ironclads the
largest is the frigate Osmanish, a
ram, iron-plated from stem to stern,
300 feet long, 80 feet broad, and q
burden of 1920 tons. Two other
notable ironclads are the twin screw
steamers Aoni Illah and NUN Z4f-
fer. Each of these vessels Is 230
feet long, and Sc feet broad, and of
q burden of 1,4O0 tons. Both are
clad in heavy armor, of an average
thickness of So inches, and carry
four twelve-ton rifle Armstrong
guns, in q central battery, the con-
struction of which admits of the
guns being fred ahead and astern
without the aid of turret. These
two irOnclads are stated to possess
the highest speed of any vessels of
war of the same tonnage. The Tur-
kish navy was manned in 1875 by
10000 sailors and 1000 marine
troops. The time of service in the
navy is eight years.
