The WARM Europe.

The fall Of Plevna has produced 4
profound sensation in Eugland. The Times
Of Yesterday says that II not only in.
wolves the loss OF an army but is the
prelude 10 the final collapse Of the whole
Turkish csmpaign. ItSays further that
the Turks have been as completely de-
Ieated a. the Auslriaus at sadowa in 1866.
or the French at Sedan in 1870. Having
refused the conditions which Europe and
England offered they must now take the
consequences, and sooner or later submit
to forfeiture Of their authority II not
their territory in Europe, mo European
Power, England least Of all, will inter
lere."
THIS ia cold comfort for Turkey, most
ASutedIy, tn this dark hour Of her exist.
suce, but we do not imagine that England
will prove quite so Indifferent as to what
may happen to her as the language of the
Tines seems to indicate. For instance,
the Telegraph newspaper, 10 It's comments
yesterday on the fall Of Pleyna, demands
that the British fleet shall at once move
uptO Gallipoll or Batoum. This demand
il but the echo Of the whole pro.Turkey
party in EnSland-a large and powerful
party.
But,.:be her inclinalions as they may,
what after all, can England dO2 Can she
prevent the partition of European Tur-
key Suppose that Russia agreea to give
Austria a tempting slice Of Turkish ter.
ritOry, such as servia, Herzegovina and
BOruia, and agrees to allow Germany TO
incorporate Holland, who shall stop her
from aPpropriating for herself all that
portion Of Asiatic Turkey abutting the
Caucasus mountains, and debating pro-
tectorate over MOldavia, Wallachia, Bull
garia and Rumilia.
1t is supposed that England will never
submit to see COnStantinople pass into
rival hands. That rather than do so she
will unfurl the standard OF war at Con-
stnutinople, and rally to it, by all the
means at her command, not only all her
ships ot war but likewise all the warlike
resources Of India and all the cohorts of
Turkey. It is supposed that she could
make fearful fight 10 this way II she felt
disposed. And SO indeed she might, but,
after all, would it pay2 Would it not
pay better for her TO quietly demand
Egypt as her share in the division Of the
spoiIs, and thus concede to her the con-
troll of the suez Canal, while at the same
time Constantinople should be made a
Free City and the DSrdanelles thrown
open TO all nations.

A BOLD ArTEaPr AT RoDBERY.-A
bold attempt was made TO rob the resi.
dence Of Mr. VIM. Clark, who resides q
short distance above Martins Ferry,
about 3 o'clock yesterday morning. Al
the hour mentioned Mr.. Clark was
aroused BY sliHht noise down stairs, but
paid very little attention to It, not sup.
posing there was anything wrong about
the premises. He was therefore much
surprised, and not little frightened,
when two masked men entered his room,
one carrying lantern and an iron bar,
and the other revolver and 0 knife.
Mr.. Clark, upon the advent OF his unwel.
come and mysterious visitors, Jumped
out oi bed and behind 1t, and called TO
his son, who occupied an adjoining room,
for assistance. The men threatened thai
II he did not stop his noise they would
shoot him, and he wisely held his peace.
Then the thieves searched under the Pill.
low Of the bed, and finding nothing TO
reward their search, requested Mr.. Clark
to open uecretary standing on the other
side Of the room. Mr. Clark replied that
there was neither money or yaluAbles |
tho secretary, and theg would gain moth.
Ing by having Il opened. This
rerly the rascals took In cd
faith, and proceeded TO rch
the pockets Of Mr.. Clarks clothes, bu,
without finding anything. In the mean.
while Mr.. Clarke son was awakened by
the noise in his fathers room, and hastily !
dressed himself. The sharp.eared seound,
rels heard him moving about, and made
haste to leave the premises, without be.
ing molested. An examination developed
the fact that they had effected an en.
trance by boring holes through the cellar
door. They were evidently familiar with
the house, Us they did mot stop on thu
6rat door but proceeded directly to Mr.
Clarka room.
