OVER THE BALKANS.
A Bagot correspondents telearaphs
under date Of Jan. LIST that after q most
difficult passage over the snow COW
cred mountains and frozen foot paths,
the vanguard Of the Russian division
has occupied the Balkan passes between
Ararbakonk and Sophia, and the cav
airy has already been stationed on the
Sophia road. The Turks were taken
by surprise, consequently the Russians
lost only few wounded. Along the
eastern front, namely the river LON,
the Turks have withdrawn from all
their positions, leaving only small
armed bodies composed of troops and
inhabitants. The latter with arms re-
tire to the woods after burning their
own villages.

No INTERFERENCE DESIRED.
1t is said Russia has already replied
to England's note that if the Turks de-
sire an armistice they must apply di-
rectly to the Russian commander-in-
chief
A Paris correspondent also says he
has reason to believe that Prince Gorts-
chakoff has declared that Turkey must
know that Russia has always been ready
to listen to proposals of peace, and that
the presentation of peace proposals by
an intermediary appears unnecessary.
The correspondent adds that the tele-
gram conveying the above information
seems also to convey an intimation OF
readiness to accept an armistice.
RUSSIA MAKES NO HARSH REPLY.
A St. Petersburg dispatch dated
January LIST says the request OF
the British government for infor-
nation whether Russia would be dis
posed to enter into peace negotiations at
the desire of the porte. has been re-
ceived. Ii statements have been pub
lished abroad respecting the Russian
answer and the conditions she would
propose, such intelligence must be pre-
mature and inaccurate. Nothing what
ever has been determined on, though
in well informed circles it is assumed
that Russia will make no harsh reply to
the steps taken with the object Of paw
ing the way for peace. but will show her

The political campaign is beginning
to develope briskly at New Orleans.
The National party. headed by Frank
Hatch. an old Democrat and collector
of the port before the war. has tele-
graphed General Beauregard. now in
New York. offering him the place al
the head of the state ticket, in opposi-
ton to Major Z. 4. Burke. the recu-
lar Democratic nominee. The negro
vote solid is pledged TO General Beau
regard in this offer. as there has been
a fusion between the Nationals and
the Republicans. The Republican
convention, which meets at New Or
leans next Wednesday will not make
any nominations, it is understood.
1t will allow the Nationals to nomi
nate state and city ticket. as thew
did two members of congress from
the city districts. The number Of
registered votes is now about IL 900.
OF these over 5000 are negroes. and
the Nationals claim | 800 also. The
fever will. it is believed. keep large
number of Democratic refugees
from registering in time to vote.
The registry closes November 20.
Al the clerks of registration in the
third ward were arrested YESTERDAY
by the United States Marshal on affi-
dayits made before the United States
commissioner by members of the Ma
tional party. The warfare promises

This is about the present amount OF
annual interest we are paying for the
enjoyment Of the bond luxury. Tie
interest bearing debt has been steadi
ly decreased since 1856. and is now
1882. 43l 080 less than it was then; SO
that. taking the average for fourteen
years, the interest has been at the
rate of $l11, 404.779,20 yearly in gold.
Had this sum been funded it would
have been hundreds of millions more
than our national debt.
This is prOximate estimate OF
what it has cost the government to
build up a ond-banking aristocracy
at the expense of every interest but
money, making the laborer Il slave to
capital, industry hireling to money
bags. and the government dupe to
usurers.
But this is far from all. The taxes
on 81 900. 100000, at 2 per cent, is
taken from the bond aristocracy to be
imposed on the betrayed and insulted
producer.
All of the capital and all the profits
all the exemptions grown, by four
teen years of outrage, iLto immense
proportions of capital and power-are
now consolidated to secere the contin-
uance of bond and bank monopolies.
1t is the absolute duty of congress to
ptu an end to the infamous extortion
from the people. 1t must be the is
sue on every congressional district;
bank monopolies or no bank mouopo-
Ii acs 70 " V,<l f0H
tions; syndicates and bonds or no syn
dicates and no bonds; the sovereign
money of the people-the greenback-
absolute as universal legal tender
and irredeemable, or national bank
sovereignty. These are questions
and issues that cannot be skipped
over or neglected.
We want no more bonds; we want
no more syndicates. The American
people can get along without any red
shield dictation as to who shall buy
their bonds. or who shall dictate the
expenditure of their money; and they
will not submit to any system of
finances which will place the govern
ment or the people in subsection to
Jews, to syndicateS, or to corpora
tions.
Bonds and syndicates are the curse
of the land. The people demand an
issue of greenbacks as absolute mon
ey adequate to pay all the bonds-ade-
quate to sweep away all the national
banks, all monopolies. all privileges.
all syndicates, and if the present con-
gress does not understand the demand
we will elect a congress that does.
1t is such outrages that give birth TO
revolutions. The outrage must cease
or it will be made to cease.

charming quartette, Were with you

followed by an admirably selected pro-
gramme, consisting Of solos, Duets,
quartettes, etc. Miss Lille Phillips
Hutchison's rendition of "Mrs. Lofty
and l." was given in a remarkably clear,
sweet voice, and the audience would
not rest content without her immediate
temperance on. the stage. She then
favored the assemblage with ''The
Spider and the Fly" Her Flower
Song'' was beautiful, as were also all
her other selections. Messrs. J. w.
and H. ]. Hutchinson's solos, as also
Mrs. j. w. Hutchinson's recitation,
son the Shores Of Tennessee" were
attractive features Of the entertain
ment. The concert was really one of
the best eve given in our city. To-

This is what the New York Tribune
says about the Hutchinsons, who will
sing again tonight at Recreation Hall:
The Hutchinsons have been here.
These sweetest singers Of the land have
become endeared to the people, just as
the Bards and Skalds and Troubadours
Of old were dear to those they loved and
sang for. They sing because they love
to sing, because music and melody is
their natural atmosphere; the people
will crowd to hear them, because their
singing meets a want which the public
feels. To praise them would be super
fluous. We always hear them for It is
good for us. Even their saddest songs
seem the sweetest.
Do not fail to hear them tonight.
