Nicsics was re victualled after tremendous slaughter. Great inundations of the Don and Dnieper are reported from Russia. London, June 18. Special dispatches from Paris agree that Saturday's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies was the most violent ever witnessed. The Times' correspondent says it ex tended over five hours and a half, and during that long time there was one prolonged roar of vociferations. At one time, when M Gambetta said that the power was in suspicious hands, the Minister of PuWic Works sprang into a threatening air towards the tribune, and members of the right and left dash ed forward, and the ushers had to sepa rate the hostile armies. It really seem ed as if there would be a hand to hand to hand fight. All instinctively waited for the reports of revolvers. A cable special to the New York Herald reports a terrible fight between the Turks and Montenegrins. The Saturday and Friday may refer to week before last. The cable says the ad vance of tbe Turks from Podgoritza on the Albanian road has been carefully watched by the Montenegrin spies, and every precaution has been taken in selecting suitable points at which to receive the invading party. The Turks moved forward to Spuz, reaching that place Friday night and encamping, on Saturday morning at day light, the ad vance into Montenegro began. The Turkish force numbered 10,000 men, under the command of Ali Saib. The Montenegrins had taken up their sta tion at Plana, 3,000 strong. About 10 o'clock the Turkish advance came up with the Montengrin's pickets, who fell back to the main body. An hour later, fourteen battalions ot Ali Saib, came up, and without halting attacked the Montenegrin's position. During the eight hours following the engage ment before the defile, and fighting during retreat, four determined attacks were made by the Turks, which in each instance was repulsed by the Montenegrins. Bosnia Pretrovich had thrown up two rows of entrenchments and behind these ramparts the Mon teneerins fought with a safe retreat into wotded hills, always open behind them. The third advance of tne Turks was made with 8 battalions, led by Ali Saib in person. Flushed with three victories, the Montenegrins saw that their enemies came up to attack with little heart, therefore they refrained from firing until they were within 200 yards, and then poured a terrible vol ley into the enemy's front, as a small body of Montenegrin horsemen dashed out from either side, and fell upon their flank. At first the flanks waver ed, but rapidly changing their front, killed many of the attacking party. The centre came up without halting until it received several volleys, through some mistaken order, or because f disinclination to advance, the Turks halted. Then the Montenegrins sprang over the parapet of their entrench ments, and attacked the column with bayonets. The Turks broke, but were partially rallied by Ali Saib, and fell back about 2 miles in tolerable shape to an open piece of country. Mean while the Montenegrins had reformed and nursued the Turks. The retreat soon became a route and the Montene grin horsemen pursued the Turks to Spus. The Turkish dead at Plana, along the road, certainly equalled two thousand men, besides many wounded and a few prisoners. A correspondent at St Petersburg, telegraphs that advices from Russian headquarters in Armenia, reports that the garrison of Kars have made an other desperate sortie. The Russian left wing under GenHeinman repulsed the attack, and inflicted severe .losses on the Turks. The Russian cavalry at Kugala, succeeded in turning the Turkish flank and rear by a bold move ment. The fighting was very brisk, and the Turks lost 200 men. The Rus render him in every way deserving the honor which the Governor has confer red upon him. 500 $00 it Cassimere PANTS, 2.00 " VESTS, 1.00 Fancy and White Mar.

They visited the Department of Agri culture, (jreolegicai Museum, and other points of interest. They expressed themselves as particularly well pleased with tho property agency feature of the Department of Agriculture, saying that many .Northern people who desired to settle in this State were kept away by the fear of falling into the hands of those sharks that go by the name of "land agents."
