distress. have seen vast numbers of refu-
gees all over the country, dying from cold
and hunger. There is great movement to-
wards the sea. The refugees arrive perfect
ly destitute, having generally lost half OF

without means of transport and without
homes to go to. Englishmen cannot i'm

ANTERUss1AN FEELING.
The Fa7ldncier says. Members of the
stock exchange, yesterday, amid storm OF
groans and yells, burned the Times and
Neaos and other publications of Russian
tendency. The members then signed an adj
dress declaring confidence in the govern
ment. There was similar demonstration
at Lloyd's. Several outdoor meetings in
the country for the purpose of protesting
aga inst the supplementary credit were taken
possession of by the adherents of the gov.
eminent and turned into anti-Russian de-
monstratiOns.
GREECE FOR WAR.
LONDON, Feb. IA special from Athens
says: The Cretan insurgents have declared
that island annexed to Greece. In the
chamber of deputies yesterday M. Cour-
maundouros, the Greek premier, indicated
that his nation would be in armed occupa.
ton of Thessaly and Epirus and part OF
Macedonia, in order to protect the Greeks OF
those provinces from outrages by the Turks
driven into them by the Russian advance
He said: When outrages occurred previously
the government sought the assistance OF
Europe, but Europe did nothing beyond
making an inquiry. This time Greece woulc
take the matter into her own hands," This
is considered tantamount to declaration o.
war, and there is good deal of shouting il
the streets. Some, indeed, will remember
that the coast is undefended and the capito
almost denuded of troops. The arsenal is t.
be removed from Porvo to Solazis, and Their,
are thoughts of removing the seat of gov
government to Chacis. The whole popula
ton of Greece has been summoned to enrol
in the national guard. Great enthusiasm fol
war prevails. It is rumored an insurrectio1
has commenced in Epirus. The instruction
in Macedonia is spreading. An engagement
between Turks and insurgents has beer
fought in Crete; the result is unknown.
RUSSIAN INDIGNATION.
st. Petersburg special says: Much in
dignation is expressed in official circles a
the supicions which in some quarters in Lon
don have been cast upon Russian good faith
Regarding the prolongation Of the armistic
negotiations, it is declared that formal in
structlons were sent not once, but repeatedl
to headquarters to negotiate an armistice i'm
mediately the basis of peace was accepted
This probably refers to the speech o
Cross, Home secretary, in the House of Com
mons last night.
