SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

Intelligence from the seat of war in Turkey
reached town yesterday, being contained in an
article from Warsaw of the 13th inst., and in
an extraordinary supplement to the Prussian
Stale Gazette of the 23d, which gives a despatch
from General Diebitsch to the Emperor Nicholas,
dated on the 12th, wherein the Russian Corn-
mander-in• Chief, in bombastic and braggadocio
phraseology, lays claim to a decisive victory over
an army computed at from 35,000 to 10,000
Turks, under the Grand Vizier in person. To
form a correct judgment of the faet,i as they oc-
curred, and something like a reasonable conjec-
ture as to the real nature and value of the ad-
vantage—for it seems to be no more—which has
been obtained by Count Diebitsch, we must
look a little beyond the letter of the Russian
official bulletin, and reason for ourselves upon
circumstances and their consequences, as that
officer himself has descibed them. The Russian
commander was engaged in the siege of Silistria
when, on the 4th of June, he learned that the
Grand Vizier had for ten days past been invest-
ing Pravadi, which the Russians had fortified,
probably since the retreat of Redschid Pacha to
Shumla, afterengagement
his of the 17th of
_ ____.

May with General Roth. General Roth being
too weak to beat off the Grand Vizier, and
Pravadi of too much importance to be lost,
Count Diebitsch, on the sth of June, marched
with the corps of Count Pahlen, to reinforce
Roth, and to relieve Pravadi, leaving General
Krassofski to continue the siege of Silistria. The
natural course for the Russian chief was to di-
rect his movement in such a manner as, by
threatening the communications of his adversary
with Shumla, would force him to abandon his
position before Pravadi, or to risk a general en-
gagement with a Russian army at least equal in
number to his own. The notion of intercepting
the Paella's retreat to Shumla could hardly have
occurred to Count Diebitsch at the outset of his
expedition, since nothing but the most extraor-
dinary negligence in the Turks would have ren-
dered such an undertaking practicable. A few
regiments of Turkish light troops, placed in ob-
servation here and there, midway between Pra-
vadi and the Danube, must have baffled all
attempts upon the flank or rear of Reds-
chid Pacha. It appears, however, that even
in the country of the Turks, through their
carelessness or inexperience, and the skill
and caution with winch the Russian Gene-
ral concealed his operation, he formed his junc-
tion with Roth in front, and towards the left of
the Grand Vizier, rapidly occupying at the same
time the direct road between Pravadi and
Shumla in his rear. Jenibazar, Kulertscha, and
the defiles of Madara, were thus seized by the
Russian troops before Redshid was aware of
their vicinity. Now, Madara lies nearly south
of Kulertscha, is on the Grand Vizier's shortest
route to Shu►nla, and projects (three or four
miles perhaps) towards Pravadi, beyond that
straight line which would be drawn between
Kulertscha on the north-east, and Marasch ten
or twelve or fourteen miles distant towards the
south-east. This relative position of the two
last-mentioned places is worth recollecting by
and by. The Grand Vizier, imagining that his
communications were merely threatened by
10,000 men from Roth's corps d'armee, instead
of being cut off by the whole force of Count
Diebitsch, broke up from Pravadi for the defiles
of Kulertscha, hoping to destroy this corps.
Madara would then be on the left of the Grand
Vizier's movement. On the 11th instant, in
the morning, Count Diebitsch, with a view
to pass_still- further to the rear of the Turkish
army, made a reconnoissance with 8,000 or
10,000 men towards Marasch, which operation,
if it had succeeded, would have completely
cut off from the Grand Vizier all access to
Shumla, except through a circuit of possibly
two or three days' march. The attempt, how-
ever, was speedily interrupted ; first by a detach-
ment of 3,000 men, and next by the whole
Turkish army. The bulletin estimates the force
of Redschid Pacha at 22 regiments of regular
infantry, some corps of cavalry, and 15,000
Anatolians. The infantry were in square, the
horse in columns, supported a numerous artil-
lery. " A most sanguinary battle," said the
Russian General, ensued ; in the very beginning
of which, so hard was he pressed, that the
Turks compelled him to bring forward the whole
of his reserves. Infantry, cavalry, and artillery,
threw themselves into the thick of the fire. The
Russian army consisted of five divisions of in-
fantry, viz. the sth, 6th, 11th, 16th, and 19th,
besides at least two of Hussars, which, with a
formidable corps of artillery, constituted a force,
very little, if at all, inferior in number to the
Turks. What then happened ? Were the
Turkish infantry broken or thrown into confu-
sion—did they fly or become prisoners by whole-
sale, as we have heard not many years ago
happened to some of your highest-drilled Euro-
pean armies ? Not at all. Notwithstanding the
early advance of the Russian reserve, the
repeated attacks of horse artillery, hussars,
and infantry, and the " considerable superiority"
thereby obtained by Count Diebitsch, it does
not appear that he then got any thing more.
" The battle continued with great obstinacy,
until at length, the (Turkish) enemy was con►-
pelled to retreat to an advantageous position, co-
vered by a wood, leaving the field covered with
a great part of his regular troops, who had fallen
in the action." Again, " after a murderous
combat of four hours, the fire, which the ex-
hausted troops could not continue, entirely
ceased on both sides." Here then was, in truth,
a drawn battle. The Turks lost nothing but
the less advantageous ground on which they
fought, in exchange for the more favourable
position close at hand, to which they retreated.
Not a gun was taken from them, and no pri-
soners are mentioned. After an interval of re-
pose, a new scene opened. We have a good
deal of assertion on the part of Count Diebitsch
about the " discouragement of the Grand Vi-
zier," and the evident " terror of his troops," of
which he could know literally nothing. The
Russians returned to the attack, when the Turks,
after a general discharge of their artillery, did not
wait for a closer engagement, but one and all
took flight, leaving their guns (56 altogether)
the ammunition-waggons, camp-equipage, and
baggage, in the hands of the enemy. The
Grand Vizier had the enemy between him and
the direct road to Shumla ; the country through
which he must retreat, by way of Marasch, was
one which rendered it impossible to save the
materiel of an army in the face of an advancing
enemy. He therefore did the most prudent
thing for a General, whose straight line of ope-
ration had been broken—he saved the persons of
his soldiers, by an immediate flight and disper-
sion, to rendezvous, no doubt, within the lines
of Siimla. The object of Count Diebitsch
had been, according to his own account, to cut
off' the 'Turkish retreat by Marasch. Did he
accomplish this ? No ; for he tells the Emperor,

e.

he
hopes to find with the remainder of his army at
Marasch,—=the very place which a few hours be-
fore the Count had hoped to prevent the enemy
from reaching. If the post of Madara had been
held by the Russian army during the, whole of
the battle, it appears to us that the road to
Marasch must have been cut off, from a Torl;ish
army engaged and losing ground at Kulertscha;
and that if the Russians did not hold Madara
throughout the fight, the left wing of the Turks
must have gained important, though partial suc-
cesses over them. However. it is admitted that the
Russian Commander-in-Chief executed a very
brilliant manoeuvre,—surprised the army of the
Grand Vizier,—fought it manfully,—took its
artillery, baggage, and ammunition,—and in-
flicted on it a loss which the Russian bulletin
itself (not inclined to understate an enemy's
losses) computes at no higher amount altogether
than 2,000 killed, and 1,500 prisoners,—not
more than, on the authority of General Roth,
Redschid Paella's killed and prisoners amounted
to in the action near Pravadi. Now, we do not
take upon ourselves to affirm what condition the
Grand Vizier and his troops were in \dell thee'
arrived at Marasch ; but though surprised—
though turned—though compelled to make a
circuitous retreat—though acting under every
possible military disadvantage—they did not lose
the object of the battle, for they made good their
retreat to Shutnla—so far at yet aprearg. Thirty=
Live or forty thousand Turks, chiefly ttlf tar},

four hours in the open field. There is nothing
like this in the modern history of the two
nations. Judging by the facts disclosed in the
bulletin, and not having as yet any other evi-
dence, we should say that there is no decisive or
alarming victory gained by Count Diebitsch
this occasion ; and that, with a little more
teaching, their officers will become as circum-
spect as their troops are, vigorous and brave.—

We refer our readers and the public to the.
proceedings in the Court of King's Bench yes.;
terday, on the subject of an alleged libel against;
the Lord Chancellor, contained in the' paper
called the Morning Journal, from whence
will appear that the rule was made absolute.;
We would wish those to whom the subject is
interesting, to read the words extracted from the
journal as libellous, and then to compare thec
affidavit of the defendant (Mr. Alexander), in
which he swears that the Chancellor is not th.l
person meant ! This is beyond matter of criti-,
cism or controversy : we therefore leave it here.
But a word respecting the many slanders against
the eminent person who has at last been obliged
to have recourse to a court of law for the
vindication of his moral character. We real!:
have not been able to conceive what all
these things meant. As we ought to knor!
something of all things,- and posititol
knew nothing here, we have felt in the condi-
tion cliche philosopher in Horace, who was alit:o.st
obliged to relinquish his incredulity in conse-
quence of witnessing, as he said, a violent thun- -
der-storm in a clear sky. NVe heard the thunder-
storm, but exerting every faculty that we had of
ming and examining, we always found the skv
clear ! We have some means of ascertaining
what is doing in this mighty town and wealthy
kingdom, and our conviction is, after not a little.
inquiry—(we hope we may, without offencet
state the result of that inquiry into affairs which
are only not private because they appertain to
one who is a public man),—our conviction, tied
say, after not a little inquiry, is, that from, the
time at which his Lordship emerged from the
ordinary inconsiderateness ofa high-spirited youth,
he has not owed a farthing beyond the current
expenses of his establishment.—lbid.

It never was doubted that if the Russians
could contrive to force the Turks to fight in an
exposed situation, they would defeat them. Our
readers will see from our extracts from the Prus-
sian Slate Gazette that they have succeeded in
forcing the Turks to fight in a situation in which
their retreat was cut off, and the result was pre-
cisely what might have been anticipated. The
army of the Grand Vizier was completely routed,
or rather dissolved, and he himself only succeed-
ed in making his escape with a small number of
horse. The Russians have, hitherto, had chiefly
to struggle with the extraordinary difficulties of
the country. Far from their resources, and fight-
ing in a desolate country, they necessarily affor-ded
on their long lines of communication innumer-
able points of attack to an enemy well acquainted
with the ground, and able to make good his
retreat into one of his strong holds. But the
recent successes of the Turks have given them a
confidence which has proved fatal to them. The
Russians have been enabled to avail themselves
of their strategical science in a way in which
success is certain, when a General is seconded
by troops of a superior quality. The Russian
General having succeeded in occupying all the
defiles and passes in the rear of the Grand
Vizier, by which he drew his ammunition and
provisions from Shumla, the latter had no alter-
native but a battle. Had the Turks been equal,
or nearly equal, in quality to the Russians, this
might have been a hazardous •operation.
occupy defiles in the rear of French or English
troops, except in the circumstance of possessing
a superior force, or being able to fall back on
strong reinforcements, might be what is called
catching a Tartar. But the Turks are not" yet
so far improved in their tactics, as to render it
necessary for an opponent to give them a bridge
of gold. However, the Russian General speaks
favourably of their bearing. "On the nearer
approach of our columns, he displayed all his
forces in regular squares of infantry, and well-
disposed columns of cavalry, supported by nu-
merous artillery. According to the account
of the prisoners, this army consisted of twenty-
two regiments of regular infantry, some regi-
ments of regular cavalry, and about 15,000
Anatolian infantry and cavalry." We confess
that we were not a little surprised that a
Turkish army of 40,000 men should be able
to stand its ground against a Russian army
of, we suppose, nearly equal numbers, in a
pitched battle for four hours, without any
decisive result on either side. " After a mur-
derous combat," says the Russian General, of
four hours, the fire, which the exhausted troops
could not continue, entirely ceased on both sides.
This is highly creditable to the Turks, and woul I
almost warrant us in drawing .very favourabi
conclusions as to the military capability of the
nation. Mr. Macfarlane, in his interesting
work, is at pains to show that the Turks, with
the exception of a Piedasontese cavalry officer,
who acts merely as a ridinr master, have no
foreign officers. In the East Indies, the French
