and Kutzchendji. This position has accordingly
been fortified by Omar Pacha. and it may besup
nor ted with effect from the Black Sea.
Oa the 18th January, the Russians had again
attacked Matsohin, and when accounts left, the
battle was raging fiercoly, the Turks defemunfi
themselves with their usual bravery. The nu»-
Blan division at Glurgevo was also preparing . ,
attack Bustchuck, if, indeed, it had not atrea J
dOQG 60* . . . •
At Paris, on 25th, a report of scnouß^inport,
If true, was prevalent to the effect that Silistrin
'Was in the hands of the Bussians. We do not
see that this can bo true. When Sihstrio was
Isßt tahen by tbo Russians, it, was after a siege ,
of nine months, and there is little probability it
would bo less gallantly defended now. .. ....

' The Ilospodnra of Moldavia and ‘Wallachia

Russian usurpation of thoir authority. .
• Gortsohakoff is believed to have established
headquarters at Pojant.
In addition to the reinforoements sent under
convoy of the allied fleets to Batoma, Mx bat
talians of infantry and two companies of artil
lery aro to be sent shortly to Kars.
On the 13th January, Omar was at Kalofat,
where a high observatory has been created, that
. overlooks every movement of the Russians.
Russia, it appears, will issue letters of marque,
.. in the expectation that it will inflict “ great
damage on English trade in America.”
The Fleets.—On the 6th of January, at 11
. r o’clock, morning;- the last of tho English and
French fleets were out of Bightfrom the farthest
: point of land; as was also tbo Turkish convoy,
consisting of five frigates and six transports.
Advices from Odcsßo, of the 10th, state that the
English ond French ships of war had appeared
. off. at that port, and allFrcnoh and English mer
. chantmen were preparing to leave. The Rus
sians had notified that Bhips of any nation, with
troops on board, shall be lawful prizes. There*
port that thb Austrian and Prussian ambasßa
, dors, at Constantinople, had protested against
v . ..the entry of. the fleets into the Blaok Sea, is in
correct, but these representations did Bend to
' Besohid Pasha a notification that the stop taken
by France and England went beyond the agree
ment entered into by the four powers, on tho
12th of December. - r-
Tho allies had been met, January 9th, by the
mail steamer from Trebizonde; they were steer
. ing, with a fair wind and fine weather, for Ba
" toum, where they would arrive the next day..
' Tbo greatest enthusiasm was manifested in Con
stantinople, when it was known that the fleets
hqd actually sailed. A rumor prevailed in Con
stantinople that the fleets, having escorted tho
Turkish fleet to Batoum, would return to the
Bosphorus in abont a week; but this last seemed
unlikely. . The orders given to the fleets aro to
salnte the Russian ships, so loog as matters re
main ns they are. Should the Russian naval
forces attaok any Tnrklsh ship within three and
a half mites of tho Turkish coast, or any ship
belonging to the protecting powers, then active
- > hostilities will be immediately commenced.
It waß at first stated that the Russian Admiral
had issued orders to oil bis cruisers to return to
Sebastopol, but late commands, said to have
come direct from the Czar, order all tho ships to
put to sea. It was considered that tho Czar’s
‘ potioy is to have tho allies commit tho first act
of war by firing tho first hostile shot, and it is
therefore expeoted that soma slight rencontre
may take place near Batoum, whero Russian
- . ships are known, to be, and to which place the
Russian Convoy is destined. Thus, in his nice
conscientiousness—the Czar would consider to
justify himself in formally declaring war against
England and France.
A most important financial operation was said
to be in contemplation, in the extent of a decla
tion of war, namely, to issne a loan in London
and Paris, under the joint guarantee' of England
and France, to extent of 400,000,006 francs, to
■ ■ be issued at 78, os the middle term between the
. present prico of tho French three per cents, and
the English consols, with four francs profit to tho
banker—the proceeds to be applied to tho ex
penses of the war, and the joint engagement of
England nnd Franco to be regarded as an uddi
. tionat pledge of the alliance whiah subsists be
tween them. Although this project is ingenious,
it is stated by the financial circles of the London
press to have no foundation in truth.
It is Btatcd that if tho Russian Ambassadors
aro ordered to retire from Paris and Loudon,
they will withdraw to the Hague nnd there await
farther instructions. ■ ■
Geumant.—Relations witii Fbaece.—The
Germanic Diet was occupied on tho 19th with
tho note which M. de Talloney had delivered to
it in the name of France. This note contains a
historical ccconnt of what France has done until
now in the Eastern question; and express to
wards the. Federal States amicable and pacific
dispositions on the part of the Cabinet of tho
TaUleries. .
China. —Tho dates from Canton arp:to Decem
ber lllh. Quiet prevailed at Amdy, and tho
. constituted authorities had boon reinstated.
The insurgent army reached Ginkin at the end
of October.
Shanghai remained in the hands of tho rebels.
Hihts to Railway Conductor. —Professor
ESUimon, ia his late valuable and interesting
book of travels in Europe, referring to tbo rules
of railway traveling in Germany, sayß:
“ We were surprised at the great length of the
railroad trains, and at the great deluge of pco
- pie that poured ont of the ears at different sta
tions. ' The conductors ore much more attentive
than with us in giving notice of the length of
time that they will stop. Instantly as the cars
' come to a state of rest, they make proclamation
•—■three minutes! ’ ‘fivo minutes! ’ ‘tea min
utes!’ or whatever time is allowed, and they aro
very pnnetual in starting.”
If this planweresdoptedontheraUwaysinthiß
country, it would bo a great improvement. A
traveler by railroad never knows bow long tho
train is to Btopat any station, unless by intuition
—and even if he is bo fortnnato ns to catch the
condaotor, or any other than a gruff and unsatis
factory answer. This thing shonld bo reformed
altogether.
TnE Supply or Beeadstuffs.— lt is B&id that
large purchases of breadstuff's hare been and are
- now being made in the Now York market, on
speculation, in anticipation of a general war in
'Europe,, and it is these transactions that rah
prices up—bnt it is quite certain, Bays the Ex
prat, that as soon as the river and canal navi
gation is resumed, the stooks on hand in the sea
board cities will be so materially angnmented
that it is difficult to see how an abatement is not
to too an immediate result. The present famine
prices cannot long bo maintained. At,the East,
■we Bee, immense supplies are ponriog into Bos
ton from almost every ecoboo, at the rate of 8,000
to 10,000 barrels. The same may bo said of
Portland. The Btoro-honßes there areßaid to be
literally ohoked up with Canadian descriptions
of flour. r> The stock on hand at New York is also
▼ery large.
Impostakt fbom Spais.— There has been a
coup d'etat in Spain. On the lCjh of January a
coancil of ministers determined to punish sun
dry refractory politicians, and accordingly the
following generals were subjected to a decree of.
exile: Manual Concha to the Canaries; Jose
Concha (lato Captain General of Cuba) to Ma- ■
jora ; O’Connell (also an ex-Captaln General of ;
Cuba) to the Canaries; Infante to Irica; and
Armero do Leon: and the whole lot had to de
camp the next day. Besides these sixty of tbo
parliamentary opposition are to be exiled.
Some journalists also will be packed off. And
the following decrees are resolved upon: Sup
pression of tbeScnato: Suppression of the Itoy
olCouncil; Assembling of the Cortes. Chang
es in the Tariff, are spoken of. It remains to bo
seen whether these high-minded measures can be
carried
■ The Sbip Ahtabctio.— The packet Antarctic,
from New Tort, arrived at Liverpool, Monday
evening, 28d nit, with a portion of the passen
gers and crews of the ill-fated steamer BanFran
cisoo. One hundred and forty-two persons were
washed over-board from the San Francisco pre

OSS' READING MATTER WILL BE FOUND ON; EACH
PAGE OF TIMS PAPER.
Allegheny City and the Railroad*
The proceedings of the Councils of Allegheny,
published in our paper yesterday, show that the
struggle has commenced on the proposal to bring
the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad across the
Allegheny river, and oonneot it with the Central
road. Our neighbors of Allegheny would doubt
less prefer that tho terminuß of the first named
road remain where, it is. The Company pro
pose to bring it across tho river to Pitts
burgh, and are, wo believe, prepared to do
so as Boon os the right of way can be obtained
to enable them to cross tho river at the point
deßircd. The point of crossing proposed is ei
ther immediately above or below • the aqueduct.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company propose to
.appropriate $lOO,OOO towards the expense of
crossing nnd making tho connection, on condition
that the place of crossing shall not be lower
down the river than immediately on the.lower
side of the aqueduct. This, wo are informed, is
made an absolute condition of tho appropriation
or subscription; and if tho crossing is made
lower down, it will bo entirely at the expense of
the Ohio and, Pennsylvania road.
Such appears to be tho present state of tho
case. The reason for thecondidcm, on which tho
subscription of tho Central road is made to do
pend, wo cannot seo.
In order to reach the point of crossing desired,
tho Ohio and Pennsylvania Company have ap
plied to the Legislate! a for authority to cross the-
West and East Commons of Allegheny, appro*
printing so much thereof as maybe necessary
for their road, and other appurtenances for tho
business of their road. It is proposed to con
struct a road from their outer depot, crossing
the West Common • back of tho Penitentiary,
Federal street some distance above the market
house, and the whole length of the East Common,
nnd thence np a street to a point opposite the
aqueduct; thoneo by an embankment and a
bridge into Pittsburgh, to connect with the Cen
tral road near ils passenger depot.
To all this, the Allegheny Councils most slrenn
ously object, as.will be seen by tbeir published
proceedings.
They object to tho use of tho Commons for
such a purpose, as contrary .to the intent and
purpose of the grant by which they became the
property of tho public, and because it will de
s!roy their beauty and utility as public squares;
nnd take away from the citizens tho right of pas
turago on them, which they enjoy. Tho Coun
cils also object to tho passage of tho railroad np
any of the streets to reach the point desired, for
the usual reasons urged against railroads in
cities; to wit, danger to life, nnd iojary to
property.
We believe tbo Councils are right in objecting
to thc/iee of the Commons for such a purpose.
Extensive as those Commons are, tho passage of
another railroad across their entire length, with
ground for buildings, eido tracks, and all other
purposes connected with the working of the road,
would almost entirely destroy them as publia
squares.
Allegheny and Pittsburgh will at uo distant
day be consolidated, and the one groat elty thus
formed, and containing probably 200,000 in
habitants, ero long, will hare no publio squares
or > parks, or open grounds, if the Allegheny
Commons are to be grasped for privato pur
poses.
The acknowledged utility or pufalio squares,
in promoting the health and bounty of cities, and
the comfort and enjoyment of their crowded
populations, induces many other cities to pur
chaselarge tracts of ground, at great expense,
and form parks.
Those Commons in Allegheny already belong
to tho public, without purchase, and aro the
tho pride of onr sister city. - As tho population
continues to increase, their beauty and their
value are more highly appreciated. They will
soon form the one green spot of easy access to
all our citizens, in the midst of stono pavements,
brick waits, crowded thoroughfares, forges, fur
naces and mills, and soot and smoke. Instead
of emulating other cities in purchasing pnblio
grounds, at great exponse, it is proposed to
oonvort to private purposes pablio grounds al
ready possessed, and tho only gronnda that we
can ever hopo to see devoted to the comfort and
enjoyment of the citizens of both cities. We be
lieve there is positive utility in beautifal parks,
fresh air, and places of recreation and exercise,
as well as in railroads. - Wo aan havoboth with
out injustice to tho public, or to individuals;
There are other routes by which tbo two rail
roads can bo connected, as they should be.
Many other routes aro proposed; and tho prin
cipal advantage that this route across tho Com
mons possesses is that the Company can run roads
across them cheaper than through private pro
perty.
MERCIIAHT’S EXCHANGE.
Oa Tuesday evening, 14th inst., the merchants
and business men of Pittsburgh and Allegheny,
hold a meeting in Neville Hall, earner of Fourth
and I/iberty streets, to make: preliminary ar
rangements for the establishment of a Merchant'!
Exchange. From tho number and character of
the signers to the. call, wo hope and believe that
this movement will have a sucocsßfnl resalt.
Such an institution would bo of great benefit
to the two citieß. The commercial and manu
facturing interests of Pittsburgh, under the in
fluence of each an association, would bo bettor
made known abroad, better understood at home,
and conducted on more liberal and uniform prin
ciples. The rapid increase in the business of
the two cities renders saoh a movement impor
tant and necessary; and wo are glad to see that
the means arc likely to bo found, and that the
right spirit prevails on the subject
A handsome building will soon bo needed for
the purposes of the association; and, if con
dnoted on properprinoiples, may prove profitable
to the Stockholders.
ES?* Great credit is duo to tho President, Bi
rectors and Managers of the Pennsylvania Bail
road Company for their late decision in regard to
their. Sabbath arrangements. ■ Wo ■ seo by their
late Bchodnle, that they rnn but one train out of
Pittsburgh on Sunday, and that ono tho Express
train at 9.30 o’clock at night, which will give to
their numerous employees an opportunity of
resting on the Sabbath.
Numerous petitions have been presented to i
the Legislature of Ohio, asking: for a general
law to compel railroad companies to fence in
their roads, so os to provent lire stock from get
ting npon the tracks. Suoh alaw would bejaat ■
and proper. It would prevent the frequent do
struction of property of farmers, and would, at
the same time, increase the safety of railroad;
travel. - A train seldom runs over a cow or other
animal without some of the cars being thrown
off the track, and injury dono to passengers. In
England, wo are informed, all the principal rail
roads nro fenced in by the companies; and in
croßßing pnblio highways the railroads are closed
by gates till within a few minutes of the arrival
of trains, when tho gateß are thrown open, and
no travel is allowed across tho traoks until the
trains pass, when the gates are again closed. So
exnot nro tho trains thore iu their movements,
that tho stopping of travel on the highways for
each train seldom lasts over two or throo min
utes. By this moansdestruction of cattle, horses
and other property is to a great extent avoided,
and many serious accidents to triune and passen
gers prevented.
We think itright, too, that railroad companies
should fenoe in their roads. It often happens
that a railroad.runs through a farm for half a
mile; and it will cost tha farmer more to bnild.
enbstantial fences on both sides of tho road than
all tho damages he gets from tho company.

A lino of steamships between Havre (Franco)
and New York is oontomplatod by the French
Government. It is proposed to have seven
steamers of tho largest class ia tho lino. Ef

Austria is said to have notified tbo Czar of her
fixed determination to maintain an armed neu

The House of Congress, yesterday, rejected
tho Deficiency Bill, in which $500,000 was op
