PARIS, SUNDAY SUNNING.
M. Nesselrode's circular despatch explanatory of
the Czar's manifesto has only to-day become publicly
known in Paris. It is generally interpreted as a
supercilious defiance to the Western Powers—a defi-
ance which the feebleness of their diplomacy has
provoked. U they are content to remain on good
behaviour upon the terms dictated by Russia there
is but one first rate Power in Europe.
We have no news whatever to-day from the theatre
of war. There is a good deal of talk about a total rout
suffered, according to rumours in London and Paris,
of the Russian General Dannenberg's army, along
the whole line from Widdin to Bucharest. Bat as
this is the corps understood to have been engaged in
the affair of Oltenitza, the report requires confirma-
tion.

A correspondence from the Danube, of Oct. 23, says
that Rifaat Pacha, the commander-in-chief of tha
Turkish army of reserve had entered Sophia, where
he had established his head-quarters. This army,
which is every day augmenting, is composed of
120,000 men.
The Bourse yesterday was again wonderfully firm,
considering the situation. It was feared that the
article in the Moniteur which, although in polite and
diplomatic language, formally stamps the Russian
manifesto as a mendacious proclamation, would have
occasioned a considerable fall. The Rents was a
little weak at first, but a decline of 30e. or 40c. suf-
ficed to bring buyers forward, and the closing quota-
I lion was only sc. lower than yesterday. Bank of
France, owing to the favourable nature of the last
return, was in great request, and rose 25f. Several
of the railwaTs were higher; Western rose as much
as 12f. 60e. The Russian agents very iadustriously
circulated a report that the Turks had been com-
pletely routed, and their exertions to deceive the
public met with more success than might have been
expected.
(The article in the Moniteur, referred to above, will
be found in another column.)
The Patrie publishes the following private tele-
graphic despatches as having been received yes-
terday:

" VistmA, Nov. 9.

" After having been driven in the first instance
from the position of Oltenitza, the Turks returned to
the charge, and, supported by their artillery, resumed
the combat, which lasted 28 hours. The Turks re-
mained masters of the field of battle. The Russians
retreated towards Bucharest.

"BERLIN, Nov. 10.
"The Prussian Monileur gives the following ver-
sion of the affair of Oltenitza, which it has received
from Bucharest under date of the sth. The Turks,
to the number of 23,000, crossed the Danube on the
2nd, near Oltenitza, and established themselves in
entrenchments formerly thrown up by the Russians.
General Danneberg commenced the attack with six
Russian battalions, and carried the entrenchments at
the point of the bayonet. The Russian cavalry
could not act on account of the marshy character of
the ground. The looses sustained by the two armies
are not khown. Prince Gortachakoff left Bucharest
on the sth to go and congratulate the troops on their
bravery."
The Prussian despatch is evidently derived from
Russian sources, and conveniently leaves off in the
middle of the action.
