" PROCLAMATION BY GENERAL BUDBERG.

" Bucharest, July 28.
"His Majesty the Emperor of all the Russias, King
of Poland, and Protector of the Principalities of Walla-
chia and Moldavia, Protector of all who profess the
Greek orthodox faith, has resolved to cause the imperial
troops to quit the insalubrious regions of the Danube for
a short space, and withdraw to the healthier mountain
lands.

("The enemy, in his blindness, has imagined that we
are retreating for fear of him, and has sought to attack
us during the march of our valiant soldiers. But scarcely
had Prince Gortschakoff ordered his troops to repulse
the enemy than the latter fled in a disgraceful manner,
abandoning his arms and ammunition, which our troops
are carrying off with them. As soon as the season shall
have become more favourable we will return in arms to
deliver you for ever from those barbarous Turks. Our
retreat will be made with every precaution and without
precipitancy, so that the enemy may not believe that we
tee before him."

EXPEDITION AGAINST THE CRIMEA.
Advices from Constantinople to the 30th July,
received via Marseilles, by the Nil steamer, state
that Admiral Hamelin, who is at Varna, had or-
dered up all the transports and Turkish fleet from
Constantinople. Generals Caurobert and Brown
returned to Varna on the 27th. A naval division
is cruising off Anapa, the Crimea, and Sebastopol.
Various divisions of the allies are on march to Kus-
tendji.
An English frigate, after a combat with a pirate
vessel at Samos, hung two of the crew at the mast-
head.

Accounts from Varna to the 25th ult. say :—A
considerable movement had just taken place in the
allied army. General Canrobert, General Brown,
and Colonel Trochu, first aide-de-camp of Marshal
St. Arnaud, embarked on the 21st at Varna, in
order to reconnoitre the coast of the Crimea,
and select the best point for effecting a land-
ing. During the time of their absence the
Ist division of the French army, with the ex-
ception of the Ist regiment of Zouaves, which
embarked at Baltschik, proceeded by land towards
a neighbouring port in the Dobrudscha, whilst the
2d division, Commanded by General Bosquet,
marched toward Bazardjik, and the 3d division,
commanded by Prince Napoleon, was preparing to
six leagues from Varna. On
j' Napoleon started at the head of his
mthaer2ch3donpr Kinucsetendj
division to occupy the new camp assigned to him.
The English troops who had marched on Aladyn,
on the road to Silistria, were recalled, and were at
the date of the last accounts at Bourgas, a sea port
to the southward of Varna. The 4th French divi-
sion remained at Varna, from whence it would
march to Baltschik to embark on board the squa-
dron on the return of General Canrobert. The
naval part of the expedition was to consist of 14
sail of the line and 6 frigates, and
a great number
of transports. The Bashi-bazouks, to the number
of about 2,000, commanded by General Yusuf, left
Varna on the 25th for Kustendji. They are in-
tended to be employed as vedettes, for which ser-
vice they are expected to be very useful. The French
steam-frigate
Vauban, which, after having carried
to Batoum a part of the last reinforcements sent
by Omer Pacha, visited the coasts of Mingrelia,
Georgia, and Circassia, brought back with her some
of the principal Circassian chiefs. Immediately
on landing they had an interview with Mar-
shal St. Arnaud,
tion. These chiefs are serving
from whom they met with a
very warm recep
under the orders of S3hamyl, and they as-
sured the allied generals they were prepared to
raise the whole country, and assemble 80,000 men
to march against the Russians. The Marshal has
had several conferences with them, and there is
every reason to believe that their offers will be ac-
cepted. Some sensation had been caused at Con-
stantinople by the daring act of a Rusiian steam-
frigate, the \Vladimir. She left Sebastopol on the
13th July, under Austrian colours, with the inten-
tion of capturing the English steamer Phoebe,
which carries the mail between Constantinople and
1 Trebizond. Having succeeded in escaping the
vigilance of the allied cruisers, she ran along the
whole coast of Asia, and falling in with two Turk-
ish transports, one laden with maize and the other
with coal, she took out the masters and mates of
them, and ordered the crews to take to their boats.
She then took out part of the coal from one of
them,
and fearing that they would impede her pro-
gress if she attempted to take them in tow set fire
to them. A third vessel, also laden with coal,
narrowly escaped a similar fate. Her mainmast
was carried away by a ball from the Vladimir,
but she succeeded in gaining refuge in a port. It
is said that the Vladimir, in order the better to
deceive the allied cruisers, had painted her hull in
imitation of the Austrian Lloyd's steamers, and
had written the word Austerlitz on her paddle-
boxes. She is said to have got safe back to Sebas-
topol.

AUSTRIAN INTRIGUES AND THEIR
SUCCESS.
The Vienna Lloyd of the 4th inst. publishes in-
telhgeneefrom Constantinople and Bucharest which

offers an explanation of the inactivity of the
Turkish army in Wallachia. Its information, in
fact, amounts to the statement that Austrian diplo-
macy has quietly brought about that armistice in
Wallachia on which the Czar laid so much stress in
his answer to the note by which the Vienna Cabi-
net invited him to withdraw from the Princi-
palities. The Czar's troops, some of which (Lip-
randi's corps for instance) are in great danger, are
to leave Wallachia unmolested by the Turks. The
Lloyd says :—" The Turkish army of the Danube
is marching on Bucharest, but it will not occupy
that city, the Porte having made an agreement
with Baron Bruck, the Austrian Internuncio, to
that effect. It is also a part of the agreement that
all the Ottoman troops shall be withdrawn beyond
the Danube upon the arrival of the Austrians.
Omer Pacha has addressed a proclamation to the
inhabitants, promising them not to make Walla-
chia the theatre of military events."
