The Boston Globe OF Saturday says
Gan unprecedented amount of divorce
business has been transacted at the
D. esent term Of the Supreme Judicial
Court for Suffolk County. IL should lot
be inferred that domestic iutelicity is on
the increase, or that anything more than
the average amount Of discomfort with
the better and worse OF the matrimonial
state prevails. A more cheerful expla-
nauen, and the true one, Is that the in
detatigable Chief Justice has under
taken one Of those Hercu can labors with
which he sometimes enJertains him self,
and now essays TO clear the docket A
session was held week ago Saturday,
preliminary to this work, and every Thin Z
ON the list was called. OF the seven
hundred or more matters that aW aite

The great sea serpent was stranded
at Oban, Scotland, on April 20. The
boatmen headed him of, the rifiemen
fred at him, and the natives stood on
the beach aud gazed. Finally he ran
aground III front OF a hotel, and as his tail
swept the beach and slung pebbles in all
directions, smashing windows and
puncturing heads, the natives
retreated inland. Finally brave
man waded through tue surf
and threw rope around the mon-
sters head, so that 70 strong men could
drag him ashore above hign-watsr mark.

MOUKHTAR NO LONGER VICTORIOUS
Retreat of the Turks Toward Err
zingan and Trebizond.
CHEFkETS NORTHWARD MARCH,
llchemet All TO Beat Back The Russian
Tide at the Balkans.


LONDON Nov. z, 1877.
A special to the Post, dated Constantine
pie, Tuesday, announces that after some
resistance to the Russian advance, Moukhtar
Pacha, finding his position on the Devc-
Boyun seriously compromised, abandoned
it,. and is falling back on Erzingan and
Trebizond. The Russians have occupied
Erzeroum.
DRIVEN BEFORE THE STORM.
The position Of tho Turkish army was
shown to be very critical by the following
laconic and strangely vague despatch re-
ceived in Constantinople yesterday from
Moukhtar Pacha. It would seem to confirm
the reported defeat of the Turks before
Erzeroum on Monday last, after an engage
ment Of ten hours duration:-
EnzERouM. Monday.
MINISTER OF WAR, Constantinople:--
We had an engagement at Deve-Boyun,
after which we returned here.
MouKHrAR
FLYING FROM ERZERoUM.
The Daily Tslegraphs special dated Erze-
roum, Tuesday noon, contains the follow
ing:-"Mukhtar Pacha desires to stand a
siege, but the inhabitants object fearing
bombardment. Everybody is leaving for
Bayburt. Mondays fight resulted in gen.
eral rout."
cHErKErs LAST EFFORTS.
special despatch from Sofia says:-"Chefket
Pacha at the head OF q strong force, Is advancing
to the relief Of Pleyna. Osman Pachas army Is
amply provlsioned and supplied and in fine con-
dItion. Notwithstanding the Russian progress
westward the Turks are confident that Plevna will
hold out"
MEHRMET TO THE RESCUE.
Paris despatch says-"News has been received
here that Mehemet All has arrived at Sofa TO or
ganize and command an army for the defence Of
she Western Balkan passes"
ARRESTS IN coNsrASTiHoPLR.
The Vienna Political Correspondence publishes q
special despatch from Constantinope which Says
"Many prominent dignitaries have been arrested
by order OF the Grand vizIer. 1t is said that u
conspiracy on the part OF the party OF exSultan
Murad has been discovered"
MIDHAr's PETITION GRANTED.
A Vienna despatch states that the Sultan has
granted Miihat Pacha permission to go to Mitylene.
BRACoNsFIELDs ANNUAL OPPORTUNITY
The Edinburgh Scofsman's London correspondent
says:-.In political circles there Is general expecta-
tons that Earl Beaconsheld will shortly, possibly
at the Lord Mayors banquet, which taxes
place on the 9th inst, make speech on the
Eastern question which will provoke renewal
OF last years excitement and agitation. 1t is re-
ported that he will express his emphatic oprosi-
ton to the opening Of the Dardanelles to Russian
