GERMAN PAPERS.

BELGRADE, AUG. 10.-Our Pacha has received
news from Constantinople to the 3d, which agree
with what has been reported by the Tartars that
have arrived during the last eight days. The ad-
vanCe of the Russians to Bourgas, and the landing
of a Russian corps at Sizeboli, had caused the
greatest consternation both there and at Adrianople.
Twenty thousand Armenians and Greeks have been
ordered by the Two Patriarchs to labour at the
works for the defence of the capital. At Adrianople
every body is taking up arms. The harems and
many Turks of distinction fly towards Constanti-
nople. It is thought, however, that Adrianople can-
not be defended, because the fortificatVis are so di-
lapidated, but that the Turks, if obliged to retreat,
will burn this second capital of the empire, and lay
waste the country. From Constantinople many ef-
fects are already being sent to Asia. Nothing cer-
tain is known of the departure of the Sultan to the
army.

KRAJOVA, AUG. B.—We hear that in con-
sequence of the advance of the Pacha of Scu-
tari with above thirty thousand men towards
Rachova, General Baron Geismar has ordered
his troops to leave that place and retreat across the
Danube. Accordingly, we hear from good autho-
rity, Rachova has been destroyed and abandoned by
the Russians. General Geismar removed on the
sth instant from Sadovan to the entrenched camp
at Czoroi, a most important military position, where
the Turks suffered so severely last year. Ile seems
to intend to observe, from Czoroi, the movements
of the Pacha of Scutari.

AUG. 10.—(From a letter.)—Rachova has been
destroyed and abandoned by the Russians, probably
on account of the superiority of the force under the
Pacha of Scutari. It is not known whether the
latter, who is said to have 34,000 men under his
command, has crossed the Danube.
LETTER FROM ORSOWA, AUG. 12.7—News has
been received at Belgrade from Widdin that the
Russians at Rachova have repassed the Danube on
the approach or the Turks. The recovery of this
place is of great importance at this moment, as sup-
plies may now be sent without obstacle to Nicopoli,
Sistowa, Rudschuk, and Giurdzevo. It does not
appear, however, that the Patella of Scutari has fol-
lowed the Russians into Little Wallachia ; but it is
probable that he will proceed along the Danube to
Rudsehuk, to threaten the communications of the
grand Russian army. It is said that after the de-
parture. of the Paella of Scutari, there still remained
a garrison of 12,000 men at Widdin.
BUCHAREST, AUG. 7.—According to the latest
accounts (of July 31) from Aidos, the Russians are
rapidly advancing on the other side of the Balkan.
After the taking of Aidos, a column advanced to
Karnabat, which the Turks had not destroyed, and
occupied it. The Grand Vizier was still at Shumla.
We have the following particulars of the occupa-
tion of Aidos. Two Paellas, with 10,000 men,
made some resistance, but they were defeated and
the place occupied. The Ayans were obliged to
bind themselves not to commit any hostilities against
the Russians, and gave hostages as security. The
magilzhies of provisions and ammunition exceeded all
expectation.' A Russian column has advanced on
the road to Adrianople.
JASSY, AUG. 4.—As the Russians advance be-
vond the Balkan, the hopes of peace grow fainter.
Persons who know Mahmoud's character, think he
will risk the fate of
.h.is empire rather than depart
from any of the conditions which he requires to pre-
cede negotiations for peace. One of these being
the previous evacuation of the Turkish territory,
peace cannot be thought of at present, unless some
catastrophe should put an end to the Government of
Mahmoud. It does not seem that Russia is disposed
to relax in the prosecution of its advantages, still less
to renounce those it has already gained, on the pre-
carious hopes of peace. All our province is covered
with fresh troops from Bessarabia, so that one might
think the war was just beginning. After a short
halt, generally in the open air, the troops (chiefly
infantry) proceed to the Danube, for the. purpose, it
is said, of the reinforcing the corps of observation
before Shumla ; for 'though the force of the Grand
Vizier may be greatly diminished, is is affirmed,

even by Russlan officers, that the further the Rus-
sian army proceeds to the south-east, the more ne-
cessary it is to have a large body of troops at that
point, as long as Redschid Paella can receive rein-
forements from the south and the west.
STOCKHOLM, Auc. 21.—The coronation of the
Queen took place to-day, With the ceremonies ex-
pressly appointed for the occasion.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S.

The betting on Monday had some important results, the
favourites, however, remaining steady, with the exception
of Sir Hercules, who is decidedly in better favour than on
the last betting-day. Favourable accounts have been re-
ceived from the north respecting Frederick, who conse-
quently regained his old place in the betting. Forth is
very sanguine about the two horses, and declares it will
take something more than common to beat them. There
was a palpable decline in Gibbeson's two, Lady Sarah and
Wandering Boy, both of whom here without friends, al-
though high odds were offered : the cause of their going
back did not transpire. The cup betting was confined to
Zingamee, who was backed singly for the Cup, or for it
and the Fitzwilliam Stakes conjointly to a large amount.
The odds were offered against the King's mare, but she
was not backed. A busy and rather interesting day closed
as follows:
