take the army across. II Is now hardly
possible that the Russians can execute this

They may come to close quarters with tho
Turkish armies about the beginning Of

Il may DO presumed that the Russians will
endeavor TO traverse with all celebrity tho
most unhealthy districts. Their troops
will fare worst which have 10 sit down bo-
