It is now selling at from $10 to $10.2.1, and wheat that was up to $2.20 is now down to $1.90 for the best brands and $1.70 for lower grades. As a result of this decline those who speculated iu these articles have met with ruinous losses. The Ilussian army stiil occupies the noithcrn bank of the Danube, no attempt having yet bien made to cross over. Act ive preparations, however, fr soon doing so aie in progress. In the meantime the. Tmks are strongly fortifying the southern bank, and will make a desperate struggle to pievent its successful passage. It is a tmpenduous undertaking in the face of an tiiemy to pass an army of upward of two hundred thousand men and more than three hundred pieces of heavy artillery over a wide and rapid stream on pontoon bridges. No impoitant lesults have trans pired di.tinfthe week between the two at inies in Asiatic Tuikey. Last weuk we gave the Beaver H't'licitl as authority fr the statement that John A. I.emon preferred se.ing out histeim in the Senate to being nominated for Auditor General by the I publican State conven tion. The last number of the Altoona Jladical denies the truth of the assertion made by its Beaver county namesake, and thus is pieseuted a rmlicitl conllict of opin i in between these two Republican organs on this impoi tant question. Fiom the f.tet. however, that the editor of the Altoona journal sees and converses with Mr. I.emon almost daily, we infer that he speaks by the card, ami that the Senator docs not in tend to throw up his hand until the gamr for Auditor General is played out in the Mate convention. nr.-e - - r The latest addit ion to the innumerable caravan of Ohio office-holders is James Y.. Anderson, who has just been appointed by 31 f. Haves United States coiisiilio l-'unehal, l'oitugal. Iu untieing this appointment, the Lancaster luU Ui'jt urc.r a vei s t hat Au deisoii was an nppientiec iu the ofTicc of - - j - r - the Uin'on newspaper in that city fifteen or j t wenty years ago that w hile the B.-publi- 1 can election ticket were being jrintid in the Union olhce he went to the ( hai.unui of the Democratic county committee and o.Teied to mix the Democratic with the He pubiican tickets before their distribution, and that for doing so, Mr. Cochran, the editor, discharged him, liteially kicking him down the stairs that ho then staited for Baltimore and last year tymcd up as Register of Election in East Feliciana paiish, Louisiana. The Iutfll igniter fui I It er states that he was in Lancaster a short lime ago, and made no secret of his belief ( that Tilden had faiily carried L uisiana that he was going to Washington to de mand a consulate, and boasted that he had documents and infoi mation which would oompel the admiiiintration to recognize his tlaiins. hy Anderson's appointment is credited to Ohio and not to Louisiana, his connection with the election in East Felici ana parish last November, will sufliuic.it ly explain. The Ohio ilothje. shows that James E. Andeisou is a man ot unbounded political resources ami knows in an emergency how to proouie an oilicc. Ox last Saturday week a colored man named James Laws was killed iu East Feliciana paiish, Louisiana. Packard, who knew Laws, at once declared that it was a political murder, Laws having been an active Republican. It seems, however, that the killing of Laws grew out. of domestic difficult ;p and not out of politics. A suit for divorce brought by Laws against his wife for adultery had been pending for some time in the Fai isii Court, and letters from the wife acknowledging her guilt had come into her husband's possession. From this fact it is believed that she instigated the murder, ami that her paiamour committed the crime. The mother of Laws testified bef ue Vhe coroner's jury that the assassin was a nemo. In addition to all this, the P.iiish Judiie and the Dist.Ict Attorney, who weie pit sent at the coroner's inquest, have teUgiaphrd to Gov. Nicholls tint Laws was killed by on man nnd not by n lt.it d of men, as leprcsciited by Fackaid and his fiiends ; that the supposed assassin :: then in jail, and that a family feud. w inr out of a divo.eo suit, led to his Ii -at h. The whole case resolves itself into :'.is : One black man who bad been too innate with the ni'e of another black . tm kills the latter. There is nothing . I exceptional or ho;tibl in the affair, id et the Radical press has run up lh? f-ly sliiif, denounced the people ol Lor. ia for the minder of Laws, and want Ir.

The ltttsso-Ttirkish If'm: THF V.-.IY iwnTHF WHfR!-FnaE CFTHE CCNTEST. The war between Russia and Tin key is , . . r .1 a., ti, now the great topic of the day and the subject of deepest interest to the nations of ; the Old World. The armies confronting j each other on the banks of the historic .,.. , r ,i, Danube, and at the head-wate.s of tl e Euphrates, under the opposing standards of the Cross and Crescent, are inaugurating a war which promises to be the most mo- i .nentons conflict of the present century. I" the presence of all this tumult and confuvion, people are speculating and the - Uf ,Uq caises which !mve jc1 l(, " - .n ., , , . i, manifesto dcclaung war, alleges, in exten- nation fl"lu""v,"i "j - ; col. to redress the wronirs ot" a loiiff nerse- ,arfes; a,ltl "e 8a3"8 someining aoout me j vindication of the honor of Russia, insulted i. !. .f.,.i .r T...t li.t.. in ii.a , , , r r. ' suggestion of the Conference of Constant.- I nople. As a supplement to this declaration conies the address of Grand Duke Nicholas 1 to the army, in the course of which he says: "We do not march to make conquests, but to defend our breiheru oppressed for Christ's sake." These enunciations are exceedingly phil anthropic on paper, but no one w ho is fa miliar with duplicity of kings and emper or", believes a word of them. In fact, these manifestoes have ever been rega.ded by nionarclis as mere formalities, intended to deceive rather than to inform the people as to their real motives and designs. Hence it. is that a meaning directly opposite to that conveyed by the phraseology is taken from the address of Nicholas. Conquest is universally believed to be the paramount object of the invasion of the Ottomau E n pire. For this Russia has many reasons, the first of which is, that with the Black Sea and the passage from it to the Mediter ranean, the Dardanelles and Bosphorus, in the hands of the Tmks, who are ever bos tile to her interests,' Russia is deprived of her gieat natural highway to the commer cial mans of the world a circumstance which paralyzes her industries and retards her growth its a maiitime nation. With Cemst antinoplc in her possession, she would have a vast cntiepot for her conimeicial wares, ami would in fact, monopolize the tiailic of the Mediterranean, to say nothing of the territory acquired. For this she undertook the war of tUo Ciimea, twenty- i , , , .i T- i i i four years ago, and to oppose this England, Fiance and Sardinia espoused the cause of Turkey Mid forced Russia to accept the most humiliating and unjust terms by the Treaty of Palis, which took from her the control ol the mouths ot the- Uanube, piolnuneU her war vessels from navigating the D.u- d.inelles and the Black Sea, and compelled ' ucr 10 dismantle ute loriresses oi tne Crimea stipulations which she abrogated when the Franco-German war tendered Fiance no longer able to enfoiee the pro visions of the tieaty. Besides this, Russia lias an eye to :ho further extension of her Asi.it ic territo.y, and it is this phase of the case that paiticulaily alarms England Tor tho safety of her Indian Misscssions, which s not the only inleiest she has at stake, as Turkish bonds which represent hundreds of millions of pounds are 1 icld by English ' . -m T I 1, 1 i.t -it. enders, and which they will lose. of his course, the sympathy he feels I pretends to io to war to secure it for the ! ban, James Cauoll ami James Jioyle, con- j the sofieiings of the Christian subjects I subjects of the Sn'.'-an. victed of the ""'dei of i,ei.jamin 1-. lost, , .! l..i n, ,Pfr.s-.I ,.f thn T.irkis;!, !

To prottct these interests England ! l'''e fall before ihc lapse of many momhs. would go to war to-morrow if she could lint! an ally in Eutope to tiht her battles, ami hail she not the wholesome fear that IicIaiuI, iu the languago of Wendell I'lnl- lips, would stab her in the back. The j Muscovite has yet another reason f..r en- gaging iu war. It is this: The present EmpeTor, shortly after tho war of the I Ct imea, seeing the discontent of the sei fs to be an element of weakness in the em pire, emancipated Ihein. By this bold and humane measure he raised 30, 000,000 of his subjects from the level of the beat of bur den to something approaching to the dig nity of freemen. Not only this, but lie gave to them a right to the proprietorship of ihc soil, so that every child bom in Rus sia is entitled to five acies of land as a homestead. This made the Czar immense ly popular and greatly strengthened his government. But it is a well known fact that once the oppressed gain one concession, r, more propei ly speaking, one right, I hey ate never satisfied until they are in posses sion of entire liberty. This, in a remote degiee, is the case in Russia, and this is w hat the Czar is not willing to grant. An instance or two will demonstrate this fact. About a year ago the students of a univer sity (oimcd a Republican club and made a demonstration in favor of Republican sen timents. They were immediately banished a - 0:1. . : -1. . to b.uerni.
