1t is understood that Mr.. Tlden has
taken passage on the Uunard steamer
Scythia to sail for Europe on the 18th of
July and it may be safely inferred there
fore, we presume that he agrees with the
great majority of Democrats throughout
the United States in thinking that it is
hardly worth while to waste much energy
in making an ex post facto war even OH
a de facto President. Mr.. Tilden has al
ready travelled in Europe and his tastes
and habits of mind are such as to make
foreign travel eminently agreeable to
him. He will reach London too late in
the season to embarass by his presence

OHIO REPUBLICANS OPPOSED TO RE-
FoRM.-As in Delaware so in Ohio are
Republicans opposed to a reform which
reduces government expenditures by
discharging useless officers and reducing
the salaries of others. OF twenty two
Iowa Republican county conventions held
on one day last week, Allawakee stood
alone in indorsing the policy of thePresi-
dent. The other twenty-one either
maintained a silence or voted against the
Hayes administration, as did the lead
ing Republican counties of Pennsyl-
vania.
Hayes will have hard road to travel
if he halts in his course to satisfy the Re.
publican partizans who have been feed.

should give us more fully Democrat,

Crossing the Danube
FURTHER DETAILS OF THE PASSAGE.

FURTHER DETAILS OF THE PASSAGE.
The Daily Ne1os Ibrail correspondent,
telegraphing Friday, sends long details
explaining how the crossing was effet<
ted. "The Russians at Ibrail completed
a bridge undisturbed by the Turks Every
one understood on Thursday that the
crossing was postponed, both on account
of the delay in the Cars arrival and be-
cause a large force of turkish troops had
been discovered in ambush not far from
the bridge. However, General thinner
man suddenly disappeared from Ibrail
during the night. his morning little
after dayb break the people of Ibrail were
awakened by the sounds of artillery and
musketry on the other side of the river,
showing that the Danube must have been
crossed. General Zimmerman had gone
to Galatz and crossed the Danube with
two regiments of infantry and proper
tionate amount of artillery and cavalry,
in number of boats towed over by steam
! launches. The distance traverJed in boats
seems to have been over three miles. The
Turks probably were taken by surprise, as
usual Although there was a good deal
of artillery and musketry fire, they do hot
! seem to have made very stubborn re-
istance." The Ne,os' Galatz special, Fri
! day evening, says: "This morning the
i wounded came in and continued to do SC
all day. Judging from the number OF
ambuances the wounded brought back
are not less than 800. Accounts of the
action vary much, and it is impossible to
get reliable information. Roumanian
oarsmen say the Russians who tried to
land at the edge of lake near the will
age of Tchetchille were fired on before
they touched the shore and then met
with heavy voleys. From five to six
thousand Russians crossed with eight
cannon. AT 10 o'clock the Russians gave
up the attempt to gain possession of the
road leading 10 Tchetchville over the
hills, fiji ding 6 owe near the villae
hlled with Turks. They therefore retired
to hill beyond the road and ravine and
attacked battery, capturing it late in
the afternoon. The first landing was a
hand-tc hand conflict. The first man kill
ed was a young Russian officer. He
sprang ashore and was shot through the
! forehead. The object of the crossing anC
action at Galatz was to protect the
greater crossing at Ibrial"

Toreign,Telegraphic Summary
n The Russians having crossed the Dan
abs from Galalz captured the heights and
occupied the town Of Matelin. The
Turks profess to have been fully aware
of the movement, and are also advised
of the crossing of another party of Rus
slams below Hrzova. Military observers
look for the movement in heavy force
higher up the Danube.-.The Turkish
armies in Montenegro have formed q
junction and are marching on CettiDje,
which, it is said, is abandoned. Moukh-

with the Russians in Asia. A Paris dis
