event :

According to the tenor of the armistice, hosti-
lities arc not to recommence between the Armies
of the two Biligerent Powers, till after a previous
denunciation of 20 days. The denunciation having
taken place on the igth of January, the toth Fe-
bruary was consequently the day fixed for the re-
sumption of arms.

From the commencement of this month, the
Russian army put itself in motion on different points
to approach the Danube, which marches were sup-
posed to be made with a view to defend the Danube,
if the Turks should attempt to pass it. On the
ith and 12th of February there was some cannon-
ading along the Danube, the right bank of which
the Turks bad again occupied, though feebly, since
their army of reserve assembled at Sebumla had not
yet began ins march for Rudschuck.

The Russian head-quarters have been again trans-
ferred to Giorgewo, to which place the General in
Chief, LANor,Rott, repaired on the eve rat the re-
newal of hostilities, with several other Generals,
and a numerous Staff.

The Russian advanced guard passed the D3nube
on the 13th of February, without expes'icticing
much difficulty. The Turkish posts, not being nu-
Merous enough to make resi,tance, fell back to-
wards Rudschuck, where the Grand Vizier is with
a force of from vo to 25,000 men, which is, as it
were, the kernel of the grand army ; he pur-
poses to assemble on the Banks of the Danube.

Detachments are on their march Irons all parts of
the Ottoman Empire, and it is hoped that they will
be able to arrive before the Rusians can attempt any
important enterprise. The Turks .occupy strong
positions, in I,,,hich they have already been able
to maintain themselses with advntage. Besides,
it does not appear that the Russians hare any pre-
ponderating force, and it remains to be seen whe-
ther they will be able to maintain themselves on the
right of the Danube.
The Russian General had given orders to all the
corps of his army camoned during the winter in Mol-
davia, and on the banks of the Dnieper, to set out

immediately, and proceed in various diredions to-
wards the Danube. We learn that a somewhat
numerous corps is proceeding towards the Lower
Danube, on the side of Silistria; it is probable that
the Russians will attempt a passage of the river at
that point. The Turks have still a garrison at that
place.
Our Journals already furnishes citcqmstantial
details of the operations of the advanced guard,
under the command of General PULLATOW.

A private I,qter from the French colst has the
following passage respeding General BLAKE
" The Spanish Commander BLAKE, arrived at
Pali.; on the 9th of last month, under a military
escort ; he has had several interviews with TALLY-
RAND and the Minister at -War, which lasted se-
veral hours each time. The objet;} of the latter
was to ascertain the strength and resources of the
Spanish insurgents, of which General BLAKE, from
the command he so long held, must tw well ac-
quainted."
