There is immense excitement in Pesth at the losses sustained by the Hungarian troops. In reply to a statement of. the Porte that she is unable to atop the insurgents, Austria announced that further bloodshed would lead to the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina by right of conquest. The other powers addressed a simultaneous remonstrance to the Porte. In consequence of the Porte's refusal to cede Crete to Greece, Russian papers urge neutral troops to occupy Thessaly. Count Schouvaloff's brother succeeds Menzentzow as chief of police at St. Petersburgh. The Emerald, war ship, has sailed from Plymouth for Australia.
