ADVANCE OF THE TURKS TOWARDS

BUCHAREST.

A telegraphic despatch, dated Vienna, last
night, says :—"At Bucharest, on the 27th of July,
the Turks were expected in two or three days, and
will have a splendid reception. The Presse states,
under date Belgrade, August 1, that according to a
despatch from the Turkish head-quarters, the Rus-
sians are leaving Wallachia in three columns. The
province is to have an army of occupation of Turks
and Austrians. The immediate evacuation of Mol-
davia is not expected."
A letter from Bucharest of the 19th ult., in
the Satellite of Cronstadt in Transylvania, says :
—" The commander of the Russian troops in
the environs of the town of Prova has de-
manded from the Central Government commis-
sioners to compel the inhabitants of the valley
to establish barricades and to break up communi-
cations. This measure is evidently directed against
the eventuality of the entrance of the Austrians
into Wallachia. When Prince Gortschakoff re-
turned here from Urutcheni, the corps of Boyards
waited on him to pay their respects. The Prince
amongst other things said The Russians in the
two principalities have thus far been extremely
mild and friendly towards the inhabitants ; no one
can say the contrary. But that will not be the
case in future. We have hitherto only asked for
what was indispensable to the troops ; to-morrow
we shall begin to take what we require, or what
we may think right.' The Russians have already
disposed of our, peasants—every man who possesses
cattle is to be obliged to make conveyances during
four days in the week."

THE ANGLO-FRENCH TERMS FOR NEW

NEGOTIATIONS.

A letter from Berlin, of the 29th, says :
"It was said to-day in well-informed circles that the
French and English ambassadors here had just received
fresh instructions from their Governments. The cabi-
nets of Paris and London, according to what is rumoured,
would be disposed to resume negotiations on the foliovv-
ing terms :-Ist, the immediate evacuation of the prin-
cipalities ; 2dly, the joint protectorate of the principals
ties by all the powers, reserving to Austria the executive
power ; 3dly, the joint protectorate of all the non-Mus-
sulman subjects of the Porte, in conformity with the
principles laid down in the protocol of Vienna of April
9 ; 4thly, the free navi'ation of the Danube and of the
Black Sea, and the establishment of a free port in the
latter; and sthly, an indemnity fair the expenses of the
war. The President of the Council, M. de Manteuflel.
having only returned to Berlin in the course of the day,
has not as yet had any official communication made to
him on the subject."

ENTRANCE OF ENGLISH VESSELS INTO

THE DANUBE.

The Lloyd of Vienna contains a letter from Galatz
of the 18th ult., which states that three English
vessels had entered the mouth of the Danube at
Sulina without obstacle. There were 7 feet of water
there, and a dredging machine was kept constantly
at work. The first Russian posts were at Sinakow,
within half a league of the mouth. The Russians
were throwing up entrenchments and placing bat-
teries on both banks near Ismail and Tultscha, to
prevent the enemy's vessels from going up further.
The Russian flotilla of the Danube forms three
divisions, which are at Ibraila, Reni, and Galatz.
The Russians are fortifying this latter town, and
throwing up entrenehmouts on the islands in the
Danube.

AUSTRIAN CONDITIONS AS TO THE OCCU-
PATION OF THE PRINCIPALITIES.

The Presse of Vienna has the following import-
ant intelligence from Constantinople :—" Austria
has made these conditions relative to the occupa-
tion of the Principalities :-1. As soon as the Aus-
trians have entered the Principalities the Turks are
to undertake no further offensive operations in those
provinces. 2. Austria to undertake all military.

operations without previously obtaining the con-
sent of any other Power. 3. The Hospodars are
to be reinstated, but the Porte is to send Commis-
saries to examine into their conduct while the Rus-
sians were in their respective Principalities."
