They emanate in Berlin, and date from the time of Prince Bismarck's stay there, At first they were vague. Now, however, they havenssumed more positive form, to the effect that tho fall of Ardalian, the retreat of tho Tuarks to Erzeroum, together with the Improssion mado on the Porte by the menacing autitude of the Chamber and populationof the Capital, have alrendy furnished an opportunity for Uerman medlation. 1t fanlso to be remarked that the Grand Vizier was for some time Ambassador at Berlin, aud lias been keepling up rather * INTIMATE RELATIONS WITIL TR GERMAN CADI- xeT, As regards Turkey, it is thought the Govern- ment and palace cliques would only by too glad to eacape from their critical position by dismlss- ing the Chamber, and thea coming to an ar- rangement. The Turkish Parliament might be sent home In June without any extraordinary measure, Tho (mpression cqually cxlsts that Russta is littlo inclined to carry matters to the extreme. The success already gained in Asla, and in taking up positions onthe Danube, might be considered as suflicient satlafaction to military honor, provided Tarkey were fuciined to yleld, especlally aatho task of crusing the Danube and acquiring complete contrul of Bulgaria 1s not underrated, nor thie danger {gnored of com: plications which might arise, both at home and sbroad,"” ‘The corresponacny concludes: * I roproduce these rumors as I find them.

In that caso tho Scre vians, without declaring war or makiug any for ward movement, would practically cover the right of the Russo-Roumanian aruy.” A Vicanadispatch says thy Servian prepars- tlous are not such as favor the Idea that Prince Mitan wii} permit himself to be carried away by popular pressure.
