A ~,pAent ,It.Plojeeti, telegraphing on Friday
evening, states that li. the Russian camp everything
is ready for the payload af the Danube, but that the
river falls very slowly. rrivate letters (ruin the
Danube state that the Ildissions are extremely busy
preparing for their great enterprlte by the construction
of bridges and the repairing of roa4, 30 as to secure
the utmost facility of movement when the dMieive hour
comes.
The Russian Lieutenant Piischtachin who cons,
mended the torpedo launch which feU into the power
of the Turks at Salina has arrived at Constantinople.
He states that erline the launches were making
apparently good way to the monitors a sudden shock
was felt, and further progress was impossible; the
Rimier" vessels were entangled among the chains and
timber which had been laid down, and wort exposed to
• tremendous fire from the Turkish gunboats. Hie
own torpedo warn exploded by a Turkish shell, sad
his launch destroyed. The trial of strength and skill
seems to have been • very fair one.
A Constantinople Correspondent reports that the
Turkish Government is hourly expectmg news from
and the same statement was made an Friday.

affairs there is critical. A fortnight ago it became
known in Constantinople that Kars was only pro-
oleioned for two months, so that it should be safe from
famine for another six weeks When provisions are
exhausted, and the last hope of holding Kars for the
Suite& must be abandoned, the field troop will probably
make an attempt to -lit their way out, and the garrison
will he left to capitulate.
The meat of the day is the expected arrival of
Prince Milan, which is an embarrassing matter for
the Russians They searcely know what to do. The
Prince comes against their wish. As Runde wishes to
maintain the good relations misting between her and
Austria, she does her utmost to prevent Servia from
neting ; but Prince Milan does sot tare to be over-
thrown. He comes, apparently, to me if tiLltro *re no

Roumania. Russia, moreover, would prefer Servia to
remain as she was.
