Trouble Between Arnauts and Ser.
VANS.

BELGRADE, June 1.-THE attack Of
Arnauts on Servian village on the frontier
proves to have been an unprovoked and
brutal outrage. The inhabitants were driven
out of their houses in the dead of night by
false alarm of fire. Amid their fright
and confusion they were fred upon by the
Arnauts. who were lying in ambush around
the village and rushed in upon them. The
barbarities which followed are too horrible
to relate in detail. They resembled the
Bulgarian atrocities. Neither sex nor age
was spared. When they had finished their
bloody work and fled beyond the frontier,
it was found that out of hundred, fifteen
were killed and thirty-five wounded. The
Ottoman authorities. notified of its outrage,
have made show of energy and arrested q
number of emigrants near the border. but
the murderOus gang that perpetrated the
atrocities has not been molested.

of Naples in Russia by all the represents
tive people with whom he has come in con-
tact. and a number of other very evident
indications which have occurred lately of q
desire on the part of the Russian govern.
ment to cultivate the friendship of Italy,
are finding an echo in the French journals

platonic, and affords no reason for a cool

The business men here are ell interested
in the new steamboat which Was launched
the other day and is to ply between here
and Gardiner. The most Of them have got
money in the enterprise. and will have the
larger part Of their freight come that way.
1t will be red letter day for Waterville
when the steamer makes her first arrival
Her coming, however, is liable to be de-
layed somewhat on account of the river be-
ing jammed full Of logs at Five Mile Island,
on account of the breaking of the boom at
Fairfield, which let great number of logs
down the river. 1t 10 estimated that there
are now not FAR from two hundred thousand
sticks in the Five Mile Island jam, being
in some places packed in to depth Of ten
feet. Eight or ten men are at work there,
hoping to get passage through, but at last
accounts, the logs were coming in rather
faster than they were being run out. Had
it not been for the accident at Fairfield, or
if the break had not occurred until the
boom had been strung above the island, the
east side OF the river would probably now
be open for navigation.
