WHAT WILL THE REPUBLICANS DO? Victor Hugo’s organ, the Rappel, says:—"Many Fepublican Senators and Deputies have arrived. Although no formal meetings have yet been held there have been frequent consultations between them. From these some general deductions may ‘be made concerning the intentions of the repub- licans, and the course of events may, to & certain extent, be predicted. " NO OVERTURES YET MADE. “There have been no negotiations or overtures for & compromise with the men of the 16th of May. No member of the Left has been approached with this object by any representative, more or less Girect, of the Elys¢e. In conversation between members of the republican party various contin- gencies have been discussed, although, of course, fo resolution has yet been taken. In the event of Marshal MacMahon’s retirement from the Presi- dency M. Grévy’s candidacy will be unanimously supported, GREVY'S PRODABLE COURSE. “M. Grévy has allowed it tobe understood that he would not shrink from any duty or responsibility in the interest of the republican cause. Should ‘the Marshal retain his post with a republican Min- istry, the unanimous opinion prevails that more effective guarantees must be required than in the case of previous Ministrics, The members of the ‘committees of the Left in the late Chamber will , Mect on Monday to resolve upon the course of the party.”” ‘THE CONSERVATIVE PROGRAMME MAPPED OUT.

THE WAR. Chevket Pacha’s Attempt to Re- . take Telische Unsuccessful. PLEVNA COMPLETELY INVESTED, General Zimmerman March- ing Southward. ! WILL OSMAN ESCAPE ? England Has Not Offered Her Services as a Mediator. [Bx ABLE TO THE Hrnaty.} Lonnoy, Nov, 3, 1877. ‘The Vienna Potitteat Correspondencé’s Bucharest Special reports that on October 31 Chevket Pacha advanced to retake Telische. He was deleated af ter several hours’ engagement, by the Russians at Radomirze and fed in the greatest disorder. Plevna is now completely invested. PROGRESS TOWARD VARNA, A special despatch from Constantinople says Prince Hassan has undertaken the command of a force of Turks and Egyptians intended to oppose ‘General Zimmermann, who is advancing from the Dobrudscha. The Russians are in force near Musabey, hence they threaten Bazardjik, @ town to the northwest of Varna. WORK FOR THE EGYPTIAN CONTINGENT. A special despatch from Alexandria says the King of Abyssinia again threatens to invade Egypt with 120,000 men, General Gordon 1s expected at Massowah to negotiate with him, SENDING MORE TROOPS TO PLEVNA. The Turkish council of war has ordered the 25,000 to 30,000 regular troops yct in and about Con- stantinople to start, immediate1y for Orchanie and Sofla to relieve Osman Pacha. The fear in Con- stantinop.e is that the Russians will have cut the Philippopolis Railway before the troops can reach that point. SOLICITUDE FOR OSMAN. Apropos of Constantinople telegrams lately pub- Mshed that Moukhtar Pacha’s position is critical, the following extracts are given from a review of the Asiatic campaign in Thuratay's Times from the pen of Captain Norman, lately & correspondent with Moukhtar’s army, and expelled by the Turks for unfriendly criti- cisms:—“The Deviboyun, the crest of a range 2,000 feet higher than the surrounding plain, pre- gents every facility fora most determined resist- ance. If “Ghazi” Moukhtar can reach this in safety and throw 25,000 men into the very formid- abie works that, under the able direction of his gallant Hungarian Ohtet-of-Stat, General Kohl. mann, have been recently constructed, Deviboyun should defy a frontal attack, ana, at this sea- son, @flank movement over mountains 8,000 to 9,000 feet above tho sea presents almost insur- mountable dificulties. ERZEROUM’S WEAKNESS. “As to a flank movement from Olti and Pennek it may be checked by the troops from Pennek, under Hassan Bey, who will occupy the works at Guirji Boghaz, a pass where the three roads irom Pennek to Erzeroum converge. Erzeroum is not a very formidable fortress, but, under the able direction of General. Kohimann, tho en- ceinte. has been - repaired, the parapets considerably strengthened, magazines placed under the ramparts, detached forts fully provisioned, arrangements made to insure an adequate supply of water, and more than one hun- dred Krupp guns, varying from fifveen to twenty centimetres in calibre, mounted on the wal's. The city, however, is very unhealthy, typhus fever thaving been rife all the summer; and, moreover, it 1 very inadequately provisioned as far as the civilian element is concerned, all stores having been seized by the government for the use of the To ops.” DOUBTS REGARDING PRESENT RUMORS. Referring to the reports from St. Petersburg of Negotiations for the surrender of Kars, Captain Norman says:—“I cannot credit the rumors that the commandant has entered into negotiations for the surrender of that fortress I am aware from personal observation that very large supplies of @mmunition for both small arms and artillery were thrown into the place during July, August and Sep- tember, and that the commissariat storchouses were completely replenished. WHAT MOUKHTAR RISKED. “It was dangerously dennded of troops during the occupation of the Aladja-Dagh. if Moukhtar Pacha was enabled subsequent to his defeat on the 14th of October to leave a garrison of the samo strength as he did in April there should be no fear for its safety. If, however, he was unable to do so it is more than probable it wilt fall by acoup de main, but it will not be starved into submission.” PRESENT STRENGTH OF THE GARRISON. The garrison in April consisted of twenty-nine battalions, numbering less than 500 men each. The Datly News’ correspondent with the Russians be- fore Kars says the garrison now numbers 10,000 men. SILISTRIA WELL GARRISONED. A special despatch from Shumla says:—*Silistria is threatened with investment, but is exceedingly strong in Its defences and fully armed, The garri- son is in admirable condition and is commanded by Selami Pacha, an able general.” DRRADFUL CARNAGE. An attack on Telische simultaneonsly with tho capture of Dubnik, on the 24th ult, was repulsed with the loss of 1,000 men. The Joss at Dubnik was 3,000 men. Every brigade and regimental comman- der was killed or wounded, and, as nearly ali the omMcers of the Guards are personally known at head. quarters, the fact that 200 officers have been placed hors de combat has cast a deep gloom over the mombers of the staif at Bogot. AN OFFICIAL BULLETIN, A special despatch trom Bogot, about eight mites south of Plevna, to the Times has the following:— “The Czar arrived here on the 27th of October. “The Grand Duke Nicholas hus his headquarters here. “General Todieden is at Tachenitza, with his staff. “The Prince of Roumania’s headquarters are at Poradim. “The bombardment of Pleyna continues ina de- sultory way.” THE VALIANT MONTENEGRINS.

Tho rosi- dence of Mr, Homor Ramedell, ex-president of the Erie road, is situated in the centre of a park, occupy- ing the space of about one city block. It is bounded by Laberty and South stroots and Ramsdell avenuo, and is considered one of the most beautiful locations in the country, fhe lawn about the house fs thickly studded with cultivated shrubbery ond evergreen trees, while a great num- ber of tall elms, maples poplars cast at night an almost impenetrable gloom immediately around tho house, A better hiding for escaping burglars could not well be devised, and to the trees the operators of Thursday morning may partly attribute their escapo. ‘THE BURGLARS DISCOVERED, Is was about half-past ono o'clock on Thursday morning that Mra, Raines, a daughter of Mr, Ramadell, was wakened with the peculiar and unpleasant sensation that some one was in the room. Sho slept on” the first floor apd im tho front part of tho house Entirely around the fret floor extended the roof of a piazza below, and it was but astep from any of the rooms through a window to this roof, Next to Mra Ratnes’ room was a small room used ag a storeroom, which also faced to the front of the house, Two brothers of Mra, Raincs— James and Thomas Ramadel!—slept on the samo floor, in adjoining rooms, the windows of which, how- evor, opened to tho side of the houss.

In that ite disarrange- that they used it as a hiding piace, Another theory is that they entered the window of tho billiard room ‘on the first floor and made their way ap stairs, open-. ing the storeroom window as a moans of esoapo, It Fow things were stolon, but there is little doubt that, had Mrs, Raines not discovered the man when she did, tho family would have been chloro- formod and a clean swoop made of all valuabics, As it was, even in their hurried departure, the bur. glars managed to take with them a gold watch and Beek chain, belonging to Miss Raines, and an overcoat, silk handkerobiet and revolvers, belonging to Mr, Rama. deli’s sous, They also emptied a flask of brandy they found in the storeroom aad lett behind them an ompty flark of their own.
