The Russian Army.

A correspondent at Paris, discussing
the various rumors concerning the condi-
ton of the Russian army, says the truth
is the army continues to be organized
with great rapidity. The men are neith-
er so unhealthy nor so discouraged as
they have been represented to be, and
will be perfectly ready to take the field
in two months, provided a capable gen
eral is placed at their head. The real
complaint of the Grand Duke Nicholas is
inefficiency. The moderation of Russia
is not caused by military weakness, but
by her desire to throw the blame of pro-
voking war in Turkey.
