appreciation Of the weaknesses and fol-
lies not only of each other, but of boys
of a larger growth. This grality some

since the aggregate body before him had
been born, he would briefly and general

corded to Yale College during the past
1876 years, and give thanks for all. Ask

THE return of George NJ. Pinney,
the detaulting clerk of Paymaster
Spaulding. who absconded from San
Francisco sometime in 1875, has
created quite sensation in San Fran
cisco. Two indictments for forgery
have been standing against him since
1875. He claims to have left funds
in the hands of certain parties in San
Francisco, sufficient to cover the GER
tificates of Indebtedness, which were
hypothecated, partly by himself be-
fore hls sudden departure. The ques-
ton as to who these parties were will
be brought up in court, and impor-
tant revelations are expected in rela-
tion to frauds in the Payma'ter's Of
fee, political corruption and gen.
eral system Of villainy which grew
and fourished prior to his skipping

Russian Strategy.

LONDON, May 0.-The Russian
military operations at Brahilov and
vicinity are designed to extend the
Russian control of the lower Danube
by closing the Sulina Pass. II this
is successful. as appears probable,
the Turkish feet will be effectually
debarred from assisting in defend
ing Bulgaria and the Danube sub
stantially lost as a Turkish defen-
slve line Russia's prompt strategy
there is admitted to be brilliantly
sagacious. No effective opposition
to the Russians crossing the Danube
in force is now deemed probable.

THE EUROPEAN WAR.

Thus far no battle has occurred in
European Turkey. There has been
q little cannonading at several
points, but no important advantage
has been gained for either combat
ant. In Asiatic Turkey there has
been considerable fighting, with re-
suits in favor of Russia. The news
of the fall OF Kars was premature;
but 1t appears that the Russians are
in sufficient force to invest that
town, and push on with two di-
visions Of their army toward Erze-
roum. This strategy is likely to be
successful, and decisive victory in
Asia Minor may compel the Porte
to sue for peace without encounter
ing defeat in Europe. But the indi-
cations now are that the war will be
long and bloody. The Sultan still
threatens to raise the standard of
the Prophet, which it is said will
call to his aid the fighting men of
Mohammsdan population number
ing ITO, 000. 900 souls. In that event
the Gear will possibly find himself
more than matched.
The European Powers seem likely
to remain neutral. England. how
ever, is arming and is giving some
moral support TO Turkey, but the
temper Of the people will not prob
ably permit her to go further. The
debates in Parliament show unmis-
takably that the people are opposed
to taking up arms in behalf of Turk
ish tolerance and barbarity. Glad
stone said, in his speech the other
day: "The cause of those who re-
volted against their Turkish OPP
pressors was one of the noblest that
ever animated human breast, and
whether England now defended or
deserted the cause of the oppressed
nationallties the knell of Turkish
tyranny had sounded its downfall,
and come from whose hand it might
it would be gladly accepted by
Christendom and the world"
