RUSSIA AND ENGLAND IN GENITAL ASIA.


ST.. PETERSBURG, sept. l0.-The Gazette says
| the massacre of the members of the English
mission to Afghanistan obliterates the scien-
| tifio frontier between that country and India
| and makes necessary the occupation of the
| whole of Afghanistan by the British; but this
| is incompatible with the assurance given bv
| England to Russia, with whom there must be
| an understanding in regard to the measure of
satisfaction to be taken by England. The Ca
| Sette proceeds to recommend solution by par
titiOn of Afghanistan SO as to bring English
| and Russian dominion in contact in Central
Asia. I'd

RUSSIA AND GERMANY.
PARIS, Sept. 10.-The La Soliez says Prince
Gortschakoff, III an interview with its CORES
pondent at Baden, disclaimed the slightest
concern at the attacks of Berlin newspapers.
He had always deprecated any undue weaken

arise.

at least three fresh infantry regiments have
reached Kuran valley. There is a rumor that

to advance on Shutargarden Pass. The signif-
canoe of this, however, is destroyed by tele-

the loss by the mob was mutilated, and may
read 210 or 4lO, but the latter figure is improb-
able. Lord Cranbrook, secretary of state for
gram to the Daily Ne1cs concerning the rela-
lions between Major Canvagnari and the ameer,
in which it is stated GOODNESS had latterly ex-
listed between them, was not in accordance with
