ing is kept up with great spirit. The
Turkish guns are far superior to the
Russians in calibre and range. Bashi
BaZouks are taking advantage Of the
advance from Constantinople Of much
of the restraining power, and have
been committing all sorts OF excuses
on persons and property. The sub
urbs are mostly occupied by persons
belonging to mercantile classes in Con-
stantinople, who have villas in the
surrounding neighborhood, and the
disorderly conduct of these semi-sav.
age soldiers keep them in constant
alarm. Among those who recently
suffered from excuses from Bashi
Bazouks, are English army officers,
and American naval officers, who were
beaten and maltreatsd by them. This
outrage on the part of Bashi Bazouks
is not unlikely to lead to further COM
plicatiOns with the Governments.
