VIENNA, August 6.
The Abend Post officially publishes the
following details of the Austrian occupa-
ton of the Turkish provinces. The main
column advanced into the valley of Bos-
mia, after overcoming great difficulties,
and gaining by tact the good will of the in
habitants. Property owners were espe-
cially friendly, as agitation is bad at Sere-
jevo, and openly assumed a Commnnistic
character. Capt. Millenkovich, chief Of
staff, was sent from Derbend on August
list with a squadron of horses to reconnoi-
ter the valley of Bosnia. He was
seemingly received everywhere with
joy. Hearing that an insurrection
was being organized at Schebesche, on the
river Bosnia, the Captain proceeded
thither, and was received at the entrance
of the town with a volley of musketry.
The hussars formed fer action, but per-
ceiving that it was impossible to force an
entrance to the town, marched back to
Maglai. There the inhabi ants, previously
very friendly, opened q heavy cross
fire upon the hussars, who were obliged to
pass at a rapid pace thedefle occupied by
Bosnians, and in doing so seventy hussars
were shot. The remainder reached the
Austrian outposts in Herzegovina. The
Austrians were advancing yesterday to-
wards Mostar and fought a short engage
.nent neal Citlak with 500 insurgents, and
killed several of them and made some pris-
oners. Four Austrians we're wounded.
BELGRADE, Ahg. 6.
The excitement throughout Bosnia and
Herzegovina is rapidly increasing as the
Austrians advance, and the inhabitants
are collecting in bands. Cen siderable un-
easiness prevails in Servia at the aspect Of
affairs in the neighboring provinces. The
Austrians were expected to enter Serejevo
to-day.
LONDON, Aug. G.
In the House OF Commons, last night,
Sir George Campbell {Liberall asked
whether. now that the United States had
made silver a legal tender, the Government
would consider the possibility Of es.ab-
fishing equivalent silver coinage in the
great silver--sing dependencies OF the
kingdom. He advocated an increase in
the mount of silver rupee coinage.
Stephen Gave (Conservative), on behalf
Of the Government, deprecated these pro-
posals, and said "a bimeta1lic standard was
very inconvenient, and that the Govern
ment's duty in regard to the currency
should be limited to the prevention Of
fraud.
Mr.. Cave confirmed the report that the
Government had decided to send repre-
sentatives to the Paris monetary confer
ence.

In consequence Of the negotiations with
Bismarck, the Vatican is drawing up fresh
instructions for the clergy in Prussia 1t
is thought that Cardinal D~edochowski
may return to Posen. 1t is understood
that difficulties have arisen delaying the

and the Vatican. The Pope has permitted
Cardinal Antonio de Luca to decline TO be
Secretary Of State. Jacobini, the Papal
Nuncio at Vienna, will probably be APP
pointed,
