A Russian Advance on TirpuI.

Cable Special.
There is no doubt that Russian troops are on
the march to Tirpul, Sir Peter Eumsden's head
quarters, if indeed they are not already in pos
session of them. 1t takes four days for mes
sage to get from Tirpul to Meshed, where the
telegraph begins. and where the last news from
Tirpul, on the Goth, reported rumors from all
sides of Russian advance in force. But com
mupication from Merv to ST. Petersburg is
some what quicker. and one day ago private dis
patches from the latter place and from the same
source which told Of the Kushk battle, an
nouneed the same thing. No secret is made
in ST. Petersburg now either of the
fact that great bodies of Russian troops
have been massing on the Sarakhs line for
weeks or that General Komaroff acted on in
structions in attacking the Afghans, and there
is no longer talk of any peaceful outcome. The
ice is out of the Volga and is breaking in the
Baltic ports In the latter the sea has been laid
with torpedoes. During the past fortnight Off
GERS out of the country have been recalled to re-
port at their ships or regiments Generals have
been sent to the front in Finland, Poland and
the Crimea Turkoland. The army is on war
footing, and Russia is ready for fight The
news of the next week will probably be that the
Muscovite army is in Herat intrenching against
an Indian invasion, and that an English feet is
on the Baltic and at the Dardarelles. What the
news of the week after will be heaven only
knows.

DANGER AT PANAMA.
United States Troops Withdrawn and the

United States Troops Withdrawn and the
Rebels Left in Possession.
New York, April 26.-The following dispatch
was received here day. dated Panaraa:
"AI troops Will withdrawn from this city last
night. The consequences cannot be foreseen,
but that there will be serious trouble on the ar
rival Of the Colombian troops, due here tonight,
is certain. General Aizpura has proposed to
take command of the United States forces here,
to withdraw his troops to the station of the Pan
anna Railway Company, General Aizpura guar
anteeing the security of the city. General
Aizpura, however well disposed, will not be able
to prevent destruction of property and
life. Barricades are being erected in
the streets, and sand-bag defenses
are being constructed. This shows
that the insurgents are determined to fight in
the town. The native feeling here is strong. 1t
is considered cruel for the United States forces
to occupy town and then withdraw, leaving
the people helpless, and the city in control of a
lawless mob"
President Scrymser rof the Central and
South American Telegraph Company, today
telegraphed as follows

Poland To BE Ceded to Germany the Price

Poland To BE Coded to Germany the Price
of Bismarck's Friendship.
PARIS, April 25.-It was confidently asserted
here to-day that England and Russia had con-
sented to accept mediation, and, though the
news has not yet been confirmed. people are
anxiously asking themselves what price the Iron
Chancellor will ask for his services A conver-
sation which the correspondent had with an
eminent Pole to-day may throw some light on
the mystery. At all events it is worth quoting,
as it gives insight into several points hitherto
neglected.
'sIt strikes me" said the Pole, who is author
ity on the subject, ''that Prince Bismarck is
acting the part that was played nearly 120 years
ago by the great Frederick. Then you may re-
member, Frederick set Turks, Russians and
Austrians by the ears and, when everybody was
sufficiently excited, he stepped in, like deus ex
machina, to arrange matters. Frederick was
another honest broker, and Poland, alas was
the brokerage. Now, look at Bismarck.
He has egged on the French to attack
the Chinese He has persuaded the
slams further into central Asia, and now he will
interfere. Who will pay the brokerage2 We
Poles have cause to fear that it will be Poland.
The Russian papers, notably NJ. Katkoffs organ,
possible cession of the left bank of the Vistula to
Germany NJ Katkoff for some years past has
been suspected of being i'll the pay of Prince
Bismarck, but his influence over the Czar is i'm
mense Anything he writes is important We
fear the cession of the left bank of the Vistula,
which includes Warsaw and Warsaw may
be Bismarck's price. Strategically, there is
danger in leaving it in Russian hands, for it
brings the Russian frontier within three days of
Berlin, while three months are needed to march
from Kengsberg to Moscow. Historically, it
has already been Prussian. Commercially, it
has long been overrun by German traders,
who swamp the Russian market with German
goods"
"How would the Poles regard the cession9'
said the correspondent
las a calamity" was the answer, 'for it
would split up what remains of Poland and
crush the heart of the nation. Poland has
population of 100000 or 6,C00, 900, bound to-
gether, one in hope, and thought and relig-
ion.'
"Divide it, what would happens"
Half would be merged and lost in Prussia,
the other half would be incorporated with Lith-
uana, and tyrannized more cruelty than ever by
Russia
But would not the Poles resistan said the cor
respondent.
II fear not. They are not prepared despite
all perfdious rumors of insurrection. If che En-
glish have any illusion on the subject they are
likely to be disappointed"
