WALLER GOLD..MiNiNq COMPANY, SULTAN CALIPH, it would appear that the Russian
• 'U.S.
Incorporated by Charter. division was defeated in an intrenclied position
NoTICE iylizgEgy Gyms,: That WORKING PLANS and SEC- not far from Kalafat ban TIONS of the MINES, with Remarks by the Directors on the pre-
Y inferior force of t:e
Bent Position and Prospects of the Property, may be had by the Moslem armament. Together with this incident,
Lombard-street.
Shareholders, on: application, at the Office, Allhallows-chambers,
moreover, must be remembered another scarcely
less notable—the signal repulse at Tchetali of a
Russian reinforcement advancing from Karaul,
evidently with the intention of effecting the pas-
sage of the Danube higher up than Widdin,
and of so ultimately turning the Turkish
position at Kalafat. It is consequently admitted
even by those who are accustomed to depreciate
the achievements of the Ottoman army, that these
two successes—the defeat, on the 6th instant, of
the Russian division near Kalafat (a defeat sig-
nalised, it would seem, by a terrible slaughter of
the Russians), and the discomfiture, at Tchetali
of a powerful Muscovite reinforcement—are, all
things considered, incomparably the most remark-
able of all the military exploits of the Moslem
troops since the first breaking out of these sanguinary
hostilities. It is worthy of remark, also, that the
intelligence of these advantages to the cause of
Turkey had reached the German authorities at
Belgrade four days after their accomplishment,
and that it has since then been carried rapidly
westwards, in spite of the vigilant quarantine
maintained by Russian influence along the bor-
ders of the seat of war, with a view, of course, to
the effectual interruption of all accounts favourable
to the credit of the Moslem, ever since the me-
morable twin-battles at Oltenitza.
Intelligence of a very exhilarating character
would seem to be crowding day after day
upon the imperial councils at St. Petersburg !
There are the accounts, for example, of this
twofold defeat of the Russians at Tchetali, and
in the vicinity of Kalafat. There is information
of the entrance into the Black Sea, exactly upon
the turn of 1853 and 1854, of the combined
fleets of France and England. There is the inti-
mation, pleasant enough, no doubt, to the pride
and ambition of the CZAR, that all his haughty
demands upon the Sublime Porte have at last
been actually followed up by the transmission
of an ultimatum on the part of Turkey and of the
allies of Turkey to himself, as Imperial Chief of the
aggressive Government. For the final proposi-
tion emanating from the patched-up Vienna Con-
ference would so appear to haVe been actually
brought at length within the limits of a definitive
u/timatum for the acceptance or the refusal of the
Russian Avrocßar----the Collective Note of the
sth of December having been responded to by the
Porte literally thus : by the acceptance of the
proposals of the Four Powers by Turkey, on con-
ditions now well known, conditions which have
been acknowledged as reasonable by the Allies of
Turkey, but which can never assuredly be deemed
admissible by the Cabinet, of St. Petersburg.
Added to all which That same Cabinet will have
to receive the gratifying announcement of
the withdrawal of the SHAH of Persia from
the partially accepted complicity with the
CZAR, as opposed to the Turkish Govern-
ment. Thanks to the vigorous course recently
adopted by Mr. THomsoN, the British Charg6
d'Affaires at Teheran, coupled with the advance
of 13,000 men towards the North-western boun-
dary of our dominions in Hindostan, to act on
the defensive if requisite against any aggressive
movement on the part of DOST MAHOMMED, there
is now little probability whatever of any attack
being adventured upon by Russia, directly
or through the aid of Persia, upon any portion of
our Asiatic possessions. Under this combination
of sinister and unpropitious circumstances in re-
gard to the designs of the CZAR, Western Europe
has now to await the signal either for War or
Peace from the lips of the Emperor NICHOLAS—
`he signal which may become audible in all like-
'bood in the next intelligence received from St.
