RUSSBIAN FINANCES, ILAND STRAIN TO BAISX MONKY, Corresvondence London Tvmes, 8t. Pxrausnuna, Bept. 3l.—Again the finan- clal question bas been ralsed in tho Russisn press, and again the chisf point discussed is, low are we to ruise money for a second eam- paign! The hopes that the war will be flnished this year are becoming every dsy falnter, for no ono as yet seriously entertains the fdes that Rusais will consent to a comoromise such as might be arranged after the first great victory. On good authority L learn that orders bave been received hero plaloly indicsting that scveral meimbers of the lmperlal family propose spend- ing the winter in Bulgaria, ‘The dificulty with.which the Treasury bas to contend areof two kinds, It requires a largo asmount of ¢ money for extraordinary expenses wt home, and & large amount o gold and silver for foreign creditors. The former msy be obtained in two wavs, by simply " manufscturing more paper roubles by Lesulnye an fnterval loan. Both of these incthods have been udopted. The amount of paper currency has been considera- bly increased, and it bas, accordingly, fallen in value, whilc, st the same time, a fourth series of bouds, bearing 5 per cent fnterest, has been {ssucd. The demand for these bonds bas not been very E:nl.w that the Government will probably have recourse chley to the litho- :npmc method of ralsing mouvey, That s, owever, a matter of sccondary lnportance, The question which attracts most attentlon st present is, How {s hard cash to be ubtained for purchases made abroad and for the satiafaction of forelgn creditors! One method of solving thls problem, by ne- wotlatiog & new foreign loan. docs not meet with general approbation. Here, for instance, s whut the Moscow Gauctie says on the subject: The conditions of such a loan wouald be too beavy, and (ortunstaly we do not for the moment sbeolutely require it. “Althiwgh the falss Snancial sysicm has long Jain as & burden upon the oation, 1t bae not exvefled from the country all the gotd sud stlver coin, and has had, of course, o infla- ence on tbe uncolned metals Accordingly, with- out & forsiga loan, We have fclt & yei a0 want of money for the military espenses. Our mint innol, and. pieate Ood, will notbe, without occupation. The Government coitecta the precionn metals in the countey by means of uankers and moncy-coangers, and there is no - doubt that the #upply will be equal to the demand, Hut this leads 10 two Inconvenlences—the bankers anri money- changers take & Jarge commission for thelr ttouble, and eilver risex in price, - All this proves more!{ that In Russta, as clse- where, the laws of political economy hold gol even for thuse who do not recognizc their furis- dictlon, but the Muscow (Zazette thinks that the above-mentioned fuconvenfences might be avolded Ly making an rppeal to the patriotle feclinga of the Yen le. In every well-to-do tamily there are broken sliver spoons and simi- Iar things not required for domestic use. The proprictors of such things would doubtless de- vote them to a patriotic purpose,” In order to assiat thore who desire to act in this way, the Moscow Giusette undertakes to transnit to the Treasury any articles of this kind which may he forwarded to the office, Thin strange proposal, it need hasdly he sald, hasnol met with the Fcneml approval of the Russian* press, Tho Alzchange Gazells, for ecxample, ridicules the "idea that “the necessity of an Imperial foreign loan can be removed by broken silver sroon«.” and justly remarka that “the article 1 it bad appeared in the forelgn prers, would hase supplicd excellent material for the comic papers,” Worze than this, the Moseow Gazette has inadvertently misrepresented the reat facts of the case, In saying that there Lins bheen as vet no want of mmm( for inllitary purposes, it apparently forgets all about the forelgn loan of 1877, and scems to know vothing about the re- cent extensive purchaes of foreigu bills by the Government. Bo far as I can judge fromn the nowepapers and other sources of fnformation. the general opinion here s that the Goverminent ought to make a new foreign' loau, The Golos, how- ever, conslders Lyat a middle course fs possi- ble; and propose#hn © Internnl metalile loan.” {:n reuarks on this subject are worthy of atten- on So long as the defects of our paper-money sys- tem cannot be remedied—and that cannot be done until the conclusion of peace—wa must cmploy meanares af an oxceptlanal kind. At present the metallic meney required for the war Is obtained in tho open market, “and for this purpose provabl new paper roubles aro fssued. it wonld Lo mncl simpler i the Government, without calculating on the voluntary offerings of gold and eilver artices, wanld make a apecial losn of 8_new kind, —we mean an internal metallic loan. The capital would be furnished in tie form of gold or silver, and the loterest would be paid In specie. By this loan, which would he open nleo to foreleners If they subacribed in Rursia, wetallic monoy might be Attracted from sbroad, and at the mane time a large quantity of It would be furnished by homo sources, The precious metals o & manu- factured furin might porhaps nlao be ace cepted—if not directly, at lcaat by the interven- tlon of the Mint. Such detalls would, hawever, re- uite scrious consideration. It {s well kuown that or the success of ony new iosn it Is necossary to oficr new conditions, We muat not hesitate to give a Ingh rate of futercst, and we must not trust 10 the patriotic feclings, which havo & much mote regular way of cxpresston in the voluntary sub. scriptions io various benevolent institutions than in fnancial oporatione, Whatever burdens might b imposed on the Treanury by the new loan. they wounld be at least lighter than thoso crested by the {ssue of paper money. From these Issdes we must chiefly and apeciaily refzain, ond In order to avold them we must take othermcasurer, The measures which wo have indlcated demand certainly consid- erable exertionn on tho part of the Government and of the country. DBut the sooner the nativn determines to make sacrifices; the moro quickly will it froo itself from the burdena of war, That 18 an aziom, Of the self-sacrificing spirit of the l(nnlllllxmnlu there ean be no posaible donbt. What s desirable s that in the reglon of financa a8 well a1 on the fleld of batile this self-sacrificing #pirit should Ve made fo Lear as much profitas ponsible for the Btate, Unlike certaln other organe, the Golos en- denvors to look ot tho financinl position In a calm, {mpartial spirit,and condemns those rapld tronsitions from bright hopes to dark fo bodings which may be noticed fn the majority of the publle. Befora the war, when the reve- nuc was steadily jucreaslug, few persons would odmit the defects of the existiug financial system. Now, ou the contrary, most peo- vle give way to exageerated apprchensions: ‘We do not mean to eay thet our fnancial condi- tlon might uot have boen-more improved during the twenty years of peace, nor do we mesn Lo mesert that the Soancial difculties which lio befoce ua aro tritiog, but recriniinations aro nosw useless oxcept for Lhe purpose of "oldhar new mistakos, and we can still overcome the diicnlties with the means which wo porsess if wo do not decelve our- selves regarding thelr nsture and oxtent, We must, however, beware of false financial concep- tions, and we must take decided measures, fonnd- ed on the aasnmption that the war will be projonged for at least another ycor. ‘These meawures would be greatly factiitated by the present patriotic dis- position of the peuple. For the consolation of forelgn bondholders, 1 may add that Kusala will certainly do all she ssibly can to satisty their clatms. She is jut Pyoprmnl of having ‘always honestly* paid her way, and she knows the moral aud material ad- vantages of possessing a good financial reputn- tiou, She s conviuced that, whatever may be the dificulties through which she has to puss, sho has a great future belore her, and that for many years tu come sho will require the aid of forefgn capital for the development of her nat- ural resources, It Is, indeed, quite possible that if the war should be of long duration, the day may comu when she will find it Inipossible to” puy punctuslly the luterest on her forelgn . debt, but enormous sacrifices wonld "be made to avoid such 'a cont{ngency, aud even if it did happen she ‘would still'be a long way from anvthing like re- pudlation. Though I Liave often fieard finaucial mattiers discussed in Russia, I have never heard that ugly word uttered, andIbave no doubt that if any one suggested it to Russisns the would regand it as an fnsuit. The cynical Indlf- fercnce to natlonal reputation and national credit which was so common in somne parts of America a fow years agu, isa feelinz which Is happlly quite unknown In this country. Un- charltable critics may explain this by poluting out that Rusaia caunot afford to vepudiate, Perhaps tliey are partly right, thouzh I must add that that motive, Uf it exists, fastillins Intent state. In auy case, for forclgn bond- holders the fact is of ‘{nfluitely more importauco than the explanation, WAR-VICTIMS, HOBRORS IN THE DISTRICTS OF KRZANLIK AND TRNI SAGURA.

Dispate to London Timis, Vizxxa, Sent. 24.—To judge by the elahorate Russian dispatch as to the affair of the 17th {nst, In the Bhipk, thg attack on the St. Nitholas Rock must have been ona of the most daring and, at the same time, most scnseless fests in mititary historv, The front of the Bt. Nicholas Hill is & rock so precipitous that even Buleiman Pashainbls former attacks nover dreamt of seuding up men there, nor do the Russians secm to have much expected an attack on that side. Tley were evidently taken by surprise when the Turks climbed up during the night and octunllyYot possession of the firat trenches, which they . kept till mnoon, when tho Russians, bringlng up reinforcements, drove them down again. Were it not that Suleiman Pasha bias lonz shown lucapacity as acommand- cr in his former attacke, it would be almost ln- credible that Le did uothing to support this he- roic cffort of his soldiers by encaving the Rus- slans all alopg the Hoe. - It is true there were eomc slizht atiempts made at other points in the morning, but they were over by 0 0. m., s0 that tho Rusaians had™ full Iefsure to turn with all thelr available forzes on those gallant fellows who lind made their way up the rock.
