England\u2019s prestige among the Afghans, who I can assure your Majesty are ready to.revolt against the Ameer.Besides Persia is prepared secretly to help us and to do the moment we strike the first blow.All these advantages will be lost by delay.The Czar replied \u201c You are too hasty, General.Russia\u2019s manifest destiny ie too strong to be wrecked by any human agency, but I still hope war may be avoided.But come what will, I ehall never consent to give np Penjdeh nor the Zulfikar Paes.\" The Czar ie convinced that improvised cruisers of the \u201cAlabama\u201d type, and a vigorous

pre pare an immediate detailed plan of the CAMPAIGN IN AFGHANISTAN.It U believed that Gonrko in the event of war will be placed in supreme com* mand.There are seventy thonsand Russian troops in Poland ; 30,000 are under orders for immediate movement to Odessa.This proves that Russia has no cause to fear hostility from Austria.The feeling among the Poles is one of indifference ; they are too weak to

this Russia will not give.Paris, April 25\u2014It is believed England has received a plain uitimation from Russia, that she will not accept mediation if offered.Bombât, April 25\u2014The Duke of

understood the Afghan situation has not been im proved.Simla, April 25\u2014The recall of the Duke of Connaught was due to the receipt of a telegram from England indicating the political outlook extremely critical, Lord Dufferin haa held a prolonged Military Coon cil, and it is believed it was resolved to con centrate the Indian forces at Quetta immediately.London, April 25\u2014The British

interview with the Consul the vessel departed with her lamps unlit.It turned out to-day that the com mander put into Almeria for the purpose of ascertaining whether war had been declared He said he had run across a British man-of-war whose condnct was so suspicious as to in duoe him to stop and ascertain what the situa tion was and what action on'his partit would warrant.St.Petersburg, April 25\u2014A general in crease in the regimental officers in the Rus sian army has been ordered, London, April 25\u2014The changes in the prices of stocks to-day were nominal and uu important.The political outlook is still con \u2022idered grave.A firm feeling prevailed on the continental bourses, with general recovery of prices.To-night th* situation appears to be very serious.It looks as if Russia desires war and as if England will be compelled to accept.The common people of England seem to believe there will be war, bnt are not enthusiastic about it.It is said Gladstone does not believe in warunless it is absolutely necessary.IHe does not think a diplomatic insult or brush against prestige is sufficient cause for wari His enemies say Gladstone would have allowed the Soudan to slip away rather than fight for it but for Gordon ; that he does not consider the retention of India worth the coat of a war with Russia, but if he decides to fight he will fight to win and the whole English people will be with him, believing that when he appeals to the sword it will be the last appeal of an Englishman of almost limitlessresenrees.The uncertainty of the situation has fairly stagnated financial operations.! The Spectator says the persistence with which the Russian papers urge the seizure of Herat is evidence that they have been inspired for the purpose of preparing the Russian public mind for the event.The Spectator believes the seizure of Herat haa already been ordered by the Czar and declares British troops will be powerless to prevent its capture and that its security depends entirely upon the courage of the Afghan.It is said the reports of secret agents com miseiooed to work up a pro-Russian aentimeo! throughout Bulgaria and Macedonia have alarmed the Russian Government concerning the influence Gladstone\u2019s name exercises oyer the people in all Bulgarian and Macedonian Provinces formerly under lurkish rule.I he revival by the Moscow Goutte of the question of the cession of that portion of Russian Poland bounded on the east by the river \\ ietula, including the capital of Warsaw to Germany ia looked upon as a strong bid for German support.In some quarters it ie thought this has been agreed upon secretly with Bismarck as the price of active German aid in suppressing a Polish revolt or against England herself.British merchants tearing the transfer of the ocean carrying trade to United States or other powers in the event of war have organized a movement to influence the Cabinet to undertake the issuing of war risks on shipping at rates that would prevent this.It is estimated there will be a deficit in this year\u2019s budget after the issue of the war credit amounting to sixty-five million dollars.Vanity Fair does not believe Russia and England will come to blows over the Afghan question.The paper boldly declares that the whole squabble is fictitious and insincere and has been got up to cover retreat from the Soudan.\t# .Russia is hurriedly fortifying Kieff.It ia stated there are 30,000 Russian troops there i- 4 GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY.QOINQ WEST.10.80 A.M.\u2014Mixed Train will leave Point Lev for Richmond and points East and West, arriving in

noon yesterday and started immediately to the support of Middleton.It is thought the rebels will now endeavor to cut off supplies by capturing Clarke\u2019s Crossing.In this event the result to our troops would be terrible to estimate.The only chance for Middleton would then be the arrival of the \u201c Northcote,\u201d with supplies, but the rebels would doubtless make an effort to capture the vessel.In connection with the navigation of the river, an old Hudson Bay factor states that he did not see how the vessel could get down the stream, as the water was always low at this season.The Canadian Pacific Railway is making an especial effort to forward all supplies, medical and otherwise, to the front with all possible haste.LAST NIGHT\u2019S DESPATCHES.Winnipeg, Man., April 26.\u2014St.Paul and Manitoba Railway have subscribed $.'>00 to the Winnipeg Volunteer Relief Fund for aid to the families of those in active service.At a public meeting held last night iu the City Hall and presided over by Mayor Hamilton, it was resolved to ask the Council to increase tho grant to $6,000 and memorialize the Provincial Government to grant a like amount.A strong committee was also appointed to fully supplement the fund.Rev, J.B.Siluox leaves to-morrow for the front, as he expresses much surprise that no chaplain should accompany tho troops to attend to their spiritual wauts in the recent battle at Fish Creek.The Halifax Battalion had a church parade to-day to St.Am)row's Church and presented a tine appearance.Rev.Mr.Pitblado delivered an eloquent aud appropriate sermon to the troops.Tho regiment is under orders to leave to-morrow for Swift Current.There is intense excitement iu the city over the news of the battle upon tho bank of the .Saskatchewan and great sympathy is manifested for the households rendered desolate with ntiliction.Few slept any last night in Winnipeg, so anxious were they to learn further particulars of the fate of the men of tho pet regiment of the city.There was great rejoicing to-day when the news was confirmed that the 90th sharp-shooters picked off Gabriel Dumont, leader of the rebels in both the Duck Lake and Fish Creek fights, as well as 25 other rebels.A despatch which seems to fully confirm the fact was received tins afternoon by Premier Norquay from S.L.Bedson, supply officer.Sergt.Dalton, who brought the despatches from General MiddLton to the Crossing en route for Ottawa, returned this morning with despatches for the General.Ho expected to reach the camp iu three hours on horseback and will return to-night, when full particulars will be had of the battle, if a battle has taken place.The wounded are expected to arrive at Clarke\u2019s Crossing this evening.Mrs.Malloy, wife of the telegraph operator there, has tendered her services as nurse, which has been accepted by Gen.Middleton.A private message received this evening gives great encouragement for tho recovery of Capt.Clark, Company \u201cS\u201d »0th Battalion, and Lieut.Swmford, Company \u201cC\u201d 0f tho same Battalion.1 he first was thought to he fatally wounded.The day has been dry and clear and very favorable for tho wounded, who are doing well.It is said that a few days previous to tho eclipse Riel addressed his people, stating that if he did not darken tho sun on the 15th ho would not ask them to believe in him.He thus played ou their credulity, they believing him to have supernatural power.The white prisoners now with Riel believe him to be insaao as a result of the recent events.He is subject to fits of insanity and is one of the worst of cranks, and fears are now entertained that by tho loss of Dumont he will go crazy and probably kill the prisoners in revenge.Mr.Wrigley received a despatch this morning from Gen.Middleton, dated from his camp, a mile from the battle field.Tne troops had got a good rest.The General was not inclined to regard the result of tho battle ia a very serious light.Rebels were still in the ravine, but our troops occupied good positions on tho camping ground.W A despatch from Battletord annonnccs that an attempt will he made by Col.Otter to rescue tho white prisoners at Fort Pitt.The Canadian Pacific are rushing bupplies at a rapid rate into the territories tor the troops.Swift Current will remain tho depot and theSouth Saskatchewan will bo utilized to transport them to Clarke s Crossing.Four thousand suits of clothiug and under-clothing for the troops arc now arriving and will be forwarded at once to thc-iu.The Government is also forwarding large quantities of ammunition.A union prayer meeting of all the congregations in the city will be hell in the Congregational Church to morrow evening to supplicate Almighty God in behalf of the troops at the front and that peace may be brought about.The steamer \u201cNorthcote\u201d is expected to reach Clarke\u2019s Crossing to-night or tomorrow morning with the Midland Bittalion under Col.Williams,

right column on the east bank of the Saskatchewan encountered the rebela at 9.15 a m., and the action still going on at last accounts.Tne rebels advanced from the ravine and fired on Major Boulton\u2019s scoute.This was at once returned, and the rebels then mounting their horses, backed into a ravine, in whjfh they lay concealed, only rising to fire on the troops.The troops immediately advanced in skirmishing order.Tne enemy were attacked from both Hanks, but so well chosen was their battle ground that they were apparently out of any possible danger from the volunteers\u2019 rifiee.The \"A\u201d Battery coaid not at first reach them, but at length they seenred a favourable location and shelled the ravine, having pre-iously demolished two houses in the distance, at which reinforcements for the rebela were waiting.In a few minutes, however, the rebels retired to a small post in tho woods, but they soon returned, and avoiding \"A\u201d Battery, moved towards the 90th.Our left had in the meantime made another body of the enemy retire ; then came fighting at close quarters, the combatants being only thirty or forty yards apart.The fight throughout was bush one, the half breeds and Indiana lying concealei in the bluffs or hidden behind the trees and keeping np a hot fire with deadly effect.The whistle of the ballets coaid be heard and the balls from the enemy\u2019s shot guns rattled in all directions.The first under firs at this stage were the men of Major Bonlton\u2019s corps, but No.6 company of the 90th soon advanced to their aid, \"C\u201d company of the School of Infantry taking their right Sank.A hot combat ensued, nearly all firing in a prostrate position.A number of gallant volunteers fell here, pierced by rebel balls.The war whoops of the Indians were heard now and then as they rallied to the fight.A desperate fire was kept np for over an hoar and then as if they had run short of ammunition, only occasional bullets came from Riel\u2019s men.After a short cessation, the enemy recommenced firing.At one o\u2019cloek tho prairie was on fire.This however, was soon extinguished by the rain.The half-breeds fought in the Indian atyle and the large number of casualties shows that they are not a foe to be despised.One party of rebels were dislodged from a ravine at one o\u2019clock, but firing «till continued very hot.At this moment the General got a ballet through the hat aad called to them : \"Stand up men.If I had been bending down I would have had my brains knocked oat ?\u201d At 4 p.m, the Royal Grenadiers arrived from the East side, in good form, and at once opened fire upon one of the ravines.There were three ravinea in a string, heavily wooded and fall of boulders, aad the rebela skipped from one to the other.The tain stopped at 1.30 o\u2019clock, but there waa a mist and this with the clouds of smoke rendered it next to impossible for the troops to see what they were firing at.Gabriel Dumas commanded the rebela sod did it with wonderful skill, At 4.40 the rebels had been dislodged from two of the ravines, bat they still held out ia the centre one.' \"A\u201d Battery could not get their shells in here, but the Grenadiers and the 90th poured in a hot tire, which did cot do mueh execution, however, owing to the dense brush.A body of rebela now appeared in the rear of the troops, and fears were entertained that we should be caught in a trap.Gen.Middle-ton bad provided for this however, and Boulton\u2019s soouts, with a nine pounder, soon dispersed them, though they hovered in bands on our Banks and sent insn occasional volley, which fell short.It was evident at this juncture that if the rebels had been all well armed or had artillery the day would have gone hard with us.Things remained unchanged np to five o\u2019clock, when there could not have been many men m the rifle pits in the ravine.At that time the General had the troops drawn up preparatory to making a charge and capturing the pits which was expected to close the engagement as he had ordered the teams to get ready to move half a mile nearer the river in the open to camp for the night.The following is a list of the CBAD AND WOUNDED np to 5.30 o\u2019clock, obtained from the Captains of each company : \u2014 90th Battalion\u2014\" A \u201d Company\u2014Private Hutchinson, killed in the first

killed ; corpl Bowden, slightly wounded.\"F\u201d Company-Capt.Clark, wounded in the back while moving from one bluff to the other.The bullet followed the rib around to the front and was found in hie clothes.Private Heslop, arm fractured, AFTERNOON SPECIAL.Winnipeg, April 25\u2014There are few further details this afternoon of the light with Riel near Batoche\u2019e.The insurgeute had taken the ground on the edge of a deep ravine, from which they ponred a deadly fire into the advancing column.When the messenger left with news, the fight was still raging.Three houses of the enemy had been shelled and many rebels driven from them took refuge in the ravine.The Indian allies of the rebels fought vigorously and in Indian fashion.The whole number in the ravine is estimated at 300.The artillery, when the courrier left, was still shelling tne rebels.Several Indian ponies have been captured.The rebel loss was not known.Tne encounter is reported to have lasted four hours with casualties to the volunteers of five killed and fifty wounded.ANOTHER ACCOUNT reports that when bloodshed began in earnest the rebels occupied a strong position on the banks of the ravine and commenced firing but an immediate volley from the scouts forced them to mount their horses and retreat into the ravine, where they concealed themselves and kept up a heavy fire.Tne remainder of tho troops having come np about noon the enemy were immediately attacked, the troops advancing in skirmishing order.The attack was made on both flanks simultaneously, but the enemy had ¦eleoted such a strong position for tho battle ground that the work of dislodging them was extremely difficult.Notwithstanding this, the tioops advanced steadily, No.6 company of the 90th Battalion, the School of lufantry.and \"A\u201d Battery on the right, with another company on the left flank.Toe tight was a hot one throaghont, the half-breeds keeping np an incessant fire from a concealed position in the bush.They were, however, forced to retire before the advance of tho left column, which advanced rapidly, and fighting at close .qa&rters followed.The half-breeds and their Indian allies, who lay flat on the ground or hid behind trees, sent their bullets whizzing through the air with deadly effect.The Battery failed at first to reach the cover in which the enemy secreted, but later shelled the bluffs with good effect.Reinforcements were awaiting the rebels in a couple of houses, but the artillery destroyed them and they retreated towards the river.They made another stand in a small poet in the woods, but did not bold it long and were soon beyond the reach of the volunteers\u2019 bullets.By 2.30 the attack had been repelled and an opportunity gives for viewing the situation.LORD MKLUUND\t____ crossed the river with the 10th Royals autl Winnipeg Field Battery, but too late to participate in the fight.The troops behaved splendidly, but ihe number killed and wounded is very large.The troops on the west side have all b^en ordered to the east side to consolidate for the descent upon Batoche.Capt.Wise and Lieut.Doucet, A.D.C., to the General, were wounded early in the affair, TUB DEAD will be buried on the fisld to-morrow morning, and the wounded be sent back to Clarke\u2019s Crossing, where it is thought a field hospital will he organized immediately.Crossing is very difficult at the point where the troops are.The latest despatches give further particulars of the fight.An eye witness with the left column reports that about 9 o\u2019clock the artillery heard an the east side something indicating that the right column had felt the enemy.Lord Melgund then ordered the troops to ad-* vance.One company of the 10th Grenadiers being thrown outos skirmishers with French\u2019s sconts in advance and the balance of the troops acting*as supports, came up with the right column, who were engaged with the enemy.The General and hie staff were riding well to the front, as was his aide with Boulton\u2019s horse, who were acting as scouts.When about five miles from McIntosh\u2019s, where they had encamped the night before, and upon approaching two small bluffs covered with timber, about 20 or 30 of the enemy\u2019s sconts opened fire, killing several of the scouts' horses, aud wounding several of the men.Between these blnffs, which were about 500 yards apart, is a piece of level and open prairie, that extends back about 1,000 yards, across which there runs a deep ravine vftth timber in the bottom, running back in places apparently about a mile.On the west side about tho centre stands two houses and straw stacks.After firing a volley from the two bluffs, the scouts got under cover, when the General turned around to Capt.Wise, his A.D.C., and told him to bring up the advance guard of the 90th under Capt.Clarke.NARROW ESCAPE OF A CORRESPONDENT.A special dispatch received by a member of the Chronicle still this afternoon reports that Mr.Ernest Chambers, the Montreal Star's special correspondent with General Middleton, had his horse shot under him during the course of yesterday\u2019s fight.later.As the last of our troops retired from the ( battle field to camp, thirty mounted rebels ! suddenly appeared from behind Toreaux\u2019s house following and jeering at our me n.The artillery was ordered to the rear to repel the second attack.They are still hovering around as I write.At 7-30 o'clock, the rebels are reported to be between us and McIntosh.An Indian attack is expected to-night.Troops remain under arms ; all supplies and troops are coming to this side of tho river.During the action all the troops behaved most gallantly.There was no flinching, the men obeying every order given like veterans.0 CANADA GAZETTE

OFFICIAL REPORT.Ottawa, April 25\u2014Government has received despatches from Gen.Middleton, but they do not contain very full details of the fight.The General highly praises the con duct of the Canadian troops under fire.Toronto, April 25\u2014Intense excitement prevails here over the news of the battle between Gen.Middleton's forces and the rebels, and each issue of the papers is eagerly bought up.Crowds surround the newspaper offices watching the bulletin boards.News «bout the Grenadiers is eagerly looked for, people being in donbt as to whether they really took part in the fight or not.Praises of the gallantry of the troops are in every one\u2019s mouth.Privates Harris and Jones, and Sergeant-Major Cummings of C Company Infantry School, who have been wounded, are married men.Private Watson, fatally shot, only arrived from England a few weeks ago.He and Private MacDonnell, also wounded, are unmarried ; Cummings and Harris are only recently married.Ottawa, April

wdth the rebels at this spot, on tho east hank of the river.My advanced scouts were fired upon from a bluff, but we managed to hold our own until the main body arrived, when I took measures to repel the attack, which was done about 2.30.We have captured a lot of their ponies and have three or four of them, apparently Indians and half-breeds, in the corner of a bluff, who have done a good deal of mischief ; being evidently their best shots, and as I am unwilling to lose more men in trying to take them, I have surrounded their bluff, and shall wait until they have expended their ammunition to take them.Lord Melgund joined me as soon as he could from tho other side with the 10th regiment and tho Winnipeg Half Battery, but the affair was over.As the most part of the left column is thus across, and as it is a work ot difiicnlty crossing,! have ordered tho rest to follow, and shall march to-morrow united upon Batoche.'Ihe troops behaved very well in this their first affair.The killed
