- - THE EASTERN W AR.

During the early part of July the Rus sians, with the Semblance of good general ship, seemingly, moved on the strong holds of the Turks with energy and deter imitation, carrying victory witk them as they advanced on the stubborn Ottoman forces. and gained very clese proximity ia the City of Constantinaplc. Twenty two thousand of the Russian invaders succeeded in passing Ia the south of the Balkan mountains. which ii was thought they could hold until reinforced hy the main army, and thus keep the key To the entrance into the Capital With several achievements over the Turks. in which was the capture of Nickopolis with 5000 men. and Widden and Mangalia, 30 miles from the Black Sea it was believed the Russian Bear would soon set up his howl and dictate to the conquer cd Ottomans from the very throne of the Empire. but reyer>e> soon followed the vic tories gained. and of a grave and serious nature. The towns captured hy the Rus sians have been retaken by the Turks, the troops that had gained a passage through the Balkan mountains have been driven to the north. and what looked bright in the early part of July for the Russians, now turns 10 darkness. Thousands of their numbers have been killed and their bones will remain and bleach on the fields of bat tie for generations 10 come. At present the indications are that the war will last for d long time. from the fact that thus far the war has been kind of Sea->aw affair with the saw part in favor of the Turks.

PROTECTING THE FRONTIER.

In consequence of the continued deprc- dation> on the Texas border. from our MeNi- can neighbors. and for the purpose of pre- venting misunderstanding and conflict be tween the troops of the two Governments, it has been deemed prudent and advisable to issue orders and instructions by the proper authorities at Washington that the Mexican General Trevino k to guard those points an the Lower Rio Grande where cattle raiders cross. and is to catch and pun ish them. Gen. Ord. who has now about a thousand men in his command and k to re- ccivc another Cavaly regiment. k. we sup pose. to guard the upper Rio Grrndc, where the incursions are mostly by Indians. Gen eral ord k not to interfere with the opera tons ot the Mexican commander within his limits.
 IL should bc understood that the border on the Lower Rio Grande k for some dis tance on each side composed of an impenc- irable jungle or chapparal. through which the cattle raiders have cut d few roads. and thc passage k possible only al these roads. I've suppose General Trcvino will be allow cd to enter Texas in pursuit of robber bands, while General Ord i'll his turn will continue to pursue into Mexico. The re- sron>ibility i> thus put on the Mexican Gen eral of preserving peace and order on a part of the frontier. Il! he performs his duty satisfactorily nobody will have a right to complain. If he docs not or cannot, no doubt General Ord will assist him. Mean time we advise President Diaz to take care of Cortina: for if he gets loose he will lI,. far MsNftA

TURKEY GREEK ANDrECK MINES.

General kautz and Secretary Go>prr have been on a trip through the hills as far east as the Peek mine, visiting the mines in Turkey Creek on their way. We learn that the General has lead m Turkey Creek district named the Indian, which shows well on the surface and has men employed working out assessments. Secretary Gospcr has taken up the north extension of this claim and has named it the Sadie" quite an enduring name by the way.
 The Goodwin mine is looking well. and the shaft k down Seventy-tivc feet showing we'll defined walls with excellent ore.
 The Holmes mine has a tunnel in on it ~eventy-five feet and the owners ire cNtrac- ting very rich ore which they are asserting carefully preparatory to shipping it to san Francisco.
 The Peck mine still continues to yield enormous rich ore. IL Is estimated hy the Secretary that the Company have on their dump S200, 900 and ore that shows itself in the mine worth several hundred thousand dollars more. The General and Secretary are both high in praise of the iattcring prospects the mineS seem to possess; but declare the hills very dry

 SAINT, FE. \. NJ, July -. 1877. EnITuR MINER In October, 1874, the General Convention of the Protestant EpiN copal Church detached Arizona from Ne yala. and New Mexico from Colorado, and united the two in new Jurisdiction. The Rev. W. F. Adams, of New Orleans, was conSecratcd the first Bishop, and he and l arrived at Santa Fc early in February 1875.
 Bishop dams visited the southern por- ton of this Territory. and started from Sil- yer City to Tucson but was taken i'll on the way. and returned. Shortly afterwards be was called home by Hines, in his family. His travelling to and fro developed a mala dy which prevented his return to his JutiS- diction. and led to his resignation about a year ago. His resignation will come before the House of Bishops in October next, and IL is hoped that another Bishop will he al'- pointed at once. Somc persons seem to think, however. that there k nothing for a Bishop tO do in New Mexico and Arizona, and therefore | wish Ia get some iutorna- tion that will give them light oa the sub iect. l have greatly desired to visit Ari ZoIa, but have been prevented.
 beg the members of the Church, and any other persons Nho may he interested in the subject, to send me information as to the population of the Territory and of the principal towns and settlements. the rate of immigration, the prospects for the future the number of tamilies and persons belong ing to the Church in any town or settle ment, the desire for he Church's services, etc. etc. | should h glad to have this in formation as soon aS possible that it may be used in report which Bishop Adams has requested me to make to the Board of Missions al its meeting in Boston. the first week in October. | may add. that in the Bishops absence, am acting, as far as may be. aS his represent ative.
