TURIIISI DULLETINN.
[N. Y. Tribune.]
The Turkish official bulletins from
the seat of war continue to be interest
ng reading. When the Russians were
fighting at Sistova for a footing on this
side of the Danube, and every one was
suffering tortures for news,.the govern
ment allowed no word of this to be pub
lished, and instead gave to the public
the announcement that in an obscure
place in Bosnia a Iaud of victory
bearing troops of his imperial
majesty had, by the grace of God,
destroyed a band of Bosnian rebels,
composed of four men, of whom
three were killed and the fourth took
refuge in inaccessible portions of the
mountains, and the imperial troops
captured on this occasion one horse,
three muskets, three revolvers, one
knife and a waterproof overcoat, besides
some food and ammunition. Fancy a
confiding public buying an official bul
letin for two cents and spelling pain
fully through the mass of Arabic char
acters composing it, and finding its
burden of news to be only this
at a time when the line of the
Danube was being broken up. After
such maltreatment at the hands of the
bureau of news, the public will not be
lieve a word of the telegrams now com
ing in from Erzeroum describing the
rout and pursuit to the frontier of the
Russian army of the Caucasus by the
ever-victorious Turkish troops. Even
the Turks themselves cannot believe
that such luck has befallen them. Re
dif Pasha, the Minister of War, has
gone to the Danube, and everybody, in
cluding the Sultan, breathes more
freely.
Even from far-off Carson river, in
Nevada, come reports of the extraordi
nary mortality among the tishes. The
Indians say: "No more catch 'em.
Heap sick-heap die." Whether it is
the low stage of the water or the use of
poisonous or explosive material that
causes the destruction no one pretends
to know.
