from bulls that are regarded as gentle

he may have been before. the sight Of

THE GREEK WAR.

The Turkish forces in Thessaly yes
terday captured Tyrnavo, the last
Greek stronghold outside OF their head.
quarters at Larissa. As the Greeks
were unable to defend their strong po-
sitions, where the nature of the ground
was such as to Offset partially the SUI
perior numbers of the Turks, it is
hardly to be expected that they will be
able to withstand the enemy on equal
ground. Overcon6dence is followed by
panic. Excited appeals are issued BY the
Greek minister of the interior to
every body to arm himself and help to
defend the fatherland. Unframed rus
tics are implored to drive back the
Sultan's trained regiments. The Sui
tan is calling upon the Khedive of
Egypt and the Prince of Bulgaria to ex-
pel Greek consuls from their territory,
Egypt and Bulgaria being nominally
subject to the Sultan. The Khediye is
honoring the Sultan's order and the
Primes is considering whether to do so.
A Greek force which landed in the Gulf of
Salonica 10 cut the Turkish line of communi.
c,.ions between Elassona and the sea is said
to have been beaten. According to Turkish
accounts, Preyisa has not been materially
hurt by the Greek bombardment, but the
Greek vessels have been compelled TO with
draw, and the force which tried to cross into
pirus has bsep driven back.
Edhem Pasha, the Turkish commander-in-
chief, continues to play Napoleons opening
in the chess game of war and SO far he has
strong prospects of success Every resource lis
being brought to bear to break through the
Greek center, the Turks being content to
merely hold the enemy on the wings. The
success Of this policy will be almost certainly
decisive of the whole campaign, for it will cut
the Greek forces in two and open the road for
q victorious march TO Athens.

COURT OF APPEALS.

The Court of Appeals adjourned yes
terday to meet in Wytheville June S.
A number of opinions were handed
down. The most interesting probably
was that of Rosenbaum's executors
against Seddon. The opinion is written
by Judge Reilly. The case, which in
volyed $4,000, grew out Of an alleged
trade in Danyille Railroad stocks be-
tween party litigants on railroad
train between Richmond and New
York. The parties were the late Mr..
Rosenbaum, a wholesale dry goods
dealer, and Mr.. Seldom, a broker. Mr..
Joseph Bryan was also in the party.
At that time there was considerable in
terest in the Danville stock and this
subject became the topic of an animal
ed discussion between the Richmond
travellers. Rosenbaum contracted with
Seldom to deliver 256 shares of Dan
vile stock at S96, the contract
to hold good for three years. Shortly
after this the stock took big jump and
Seldom demanded the delivery of the
number of shares contracted for. Mr..
Rosenbsum demprred and insisted that
the whole transaction was joke.
Seldom brought suit in the Circuit
Court and lost on question Of iDstruc
lions. An appeal resulted in a new
trial, in which Seldom won. This de-
cision the Court of Appeals yesterday
affirmed.
This is a summary of opinions in
other cases:

county; affirmed.

tor, Circuit Court of Nottoway county;

APPEARANCES now indicate that Inc
British arbitration treaty will not be rat
flied. Possibly it is just as we'll that such
should be the case, as it was not only
subjected to the treatment Of Jack the
Ripper by the foreign relations com
mittee OF the Senate to whom 1t was
referred, but was subsequently entirely
eviscerated by the Senate itself when
reported to that body. And then, too,
war has existed from the commence
ment of the world and will continue to
do so until the end thereof, for it is
natural condition, and nature cannot be
changed. If one Of two nations that
are parties to treaty shall choose to
b .eak its terms, there is no other means
by which it can be prevented FROM doing
so except by complete REIMBURSEMENT
by the other of its rights, or war, and
the latter is always preferable when
