OF THE GENERAL NEWS
Eng.ish Gr6p Reports.

Tho Mark Lane Express reviews the
corn trade for the past week and says the APP
pearance of the young wheat plant is satisfac-
tory in spite OF the termination of grain hay
ing been slow owing to the saturated condi-
tion OF the soil. The weather has been very
severe in Scotland, but in the south fair
breadth of land is under wheat. In the up
per districts farm labor is still much behind
hand, The position of the grain trade at Mark
Lane and the prospect is decidedly strong,
and with the turn of the year it is likely that
considerable activity will ensue. Supplies of
Englishwheatc onttnue yerylimited and though
holders have not been able to obtain higher
prices the tendency has certainly been In their
favor. Imports of foreign wheat into London
have been more moderate, the returns of the
3lst ult. showing a total Of onlylS 900 quarters
The decrease being due to a falling Off in ar
rivals OF Indian produce, and the closing up
OF the North Russian ports. The most notcei-
able feature of the week has been the re-
yiyal of demand for wheat from country mill
ors, who have purchased more freely at the
extreme prices OF the previous week, and on
Friday ut an advance OF six pence to shilling
per quarter. A steady continental demand is
ulso observable rs exports continue at the
rate OF 5000 ana 5000 quarters per week, and
Il fair outward movement Invariably exercs-
cd a hardening effect on prices. The stocks
OF wheat IN London are considerable but
consisting of Calcutta and other hard
varieties. The prices Of American and such
descriptions rs are valued for their flour
producing properties has been in no wise
depressed. The increased country demand
is the natural result of the wants of the
country after a deficient harvest. It is not
unreasonable to look for hardening Of prices,
now that there is likely to be q diminution of
imports. There have been numerous arrivals
OF maize cargoes at ports Of call, and there
are more sellers than buyers, but Dos Sd. @3Os
have been paid for mixed American spot
Trade for this article has bean steady and last
weeks prices we'll maintained. Arrivals of
wheat cargoes at ports Of call have been so
moderate and the demand so steady that
prices have been well supported Barley is
steady, while maize, under the pressure of
large arrivals, has ruled in buyers favor J. j..

RUSSIA'S WAR WITH TURKEY.

After an exceedingly difficult passage
over snow-covercd mountains and frozen foot
paths, the vanguard of a Russian division has
occupied the Balkan passes between ARABIA
konk and Sophia, and cavalry has already been
stationed on the Sophia road. The Turks
were taken by surprise, consequently the Rus
slams lost only five wounded. Along the cast
ern front, namely, the river Lorn, the Turks
have withdrawn from all their positions, leay
ing only small armed bodies composed OF
troops and inhabitants. The latter, with arms
retire to the woods after burning their own
villages.
A junction between Gems. Melikoff' S,
and serguassotf's corps south Of Erzeroum is
believed to be Imminent. The Russians arc
advancing toward Baiburt where the Turks
are concentrated in force and battle is OK
pected shortly. Gen. Louis Melikoff has gone
to Tiflis and Gen. Hcymann has succeeded
him. It is thought the attack Oh Erzeroum
will be delayed until Gen. Melikotf's return,
which cannot be before the end of January.
Gen, Gourko fought a severe battle on
the S1st Of December at Tashcsan Before Sc
curing the Turkish intrenchments the Rus

Important Medical Operation.

New YORK, July A.-An important tumor
operation was performed yesterday by DR.
Newton, at the Eclectic Medical College. The
patient, who is a resident of Pittsburg, Penn,
was suffering from encephaloid cancer, which
began four months ago and rapidly grew into
q large tumor, covering the entire space of, the
temple. It extended from the cartilege of the
ear to the bridge of the nose and had forced
the eye ball completely from its socket
The first step after the patient was chlOro-
formed was the removal OF the eye. The
tumor was then removed by making o cirCu-
lar incision about it's entire base, cutting
through the bone and removing 1t from above
downward.
It was necessary to ligature the three tenn
poral transverse facial and the external ca
rotid arteries. The cutting away of the can
cerous bone left the bone exposed In two
places, but the doctor pronounced the opera
tion successful and said that the man will re-
cover, WHILE had the tumor remained, he
could not have lived until winter,
In the treatment of the case a sponge satu-
rated with sulphate of zinc was placed in the
orbital cavity, the open surface dressed with
the same solution, and the whole to be healed
by granuation through supurative stages.
Dr. Newton was assisted by Prof. d. E
Mortimore and Drs. Geo. W. BOskOwitz and
Fairfield MortimOre.
