the 31st of Jely, upon the village of Pchffik, and .the
following day upon Eski Stamboul, having demon-
strated the possibility of inverting the fortress of
Schumla on that side also, the fortifications necessary.
for isolating the enemy, and cutting him off from every
communication with Constantinople, were immediately
put in train. Having thus completely organized the
siege of Schumla, which cannot possibly extend beyond
a period of a few, weeks, his Majesty the Emperor has
thought proper to avail himself of the consequent in-
terval of inactivity to proceed to reconnoitre in person
the fortress of Varna. and to inspect the fleet and tle
army arrived from Anapa, and charged to carry on the
siege of that place, under he command of Admiral
Greig. Accordingly his Imperial Majesty, escorted by
a detachment destined to reinforce she troops before
Varna under Prince Menschikoff, quitted the camp be-
fore Schumla on the morning of the 2d of August.
From Varna his Majesty is to proceed to Odessa, where
he has it in contemplation to pass a few days, and to
inspect the reserve corps of the active army.
"Auo. &—On the 2d Prince Menschik ff, having
assumed the command of the detachment des fined to
act against the fortress of Varna, quitted the position
which bad been previously occupied by Lieutenant
General Ouschakoff, near the village of Derwe.a, aid
on the came day, having driven the enemy from the
heights in [tont of she fortress, occupied a strong and
advantageous position on the same. In the reuse of
the day the Turks lost a stinsliid and a consicerahle
number in killed and wounded; among the former was
the Commandant of their cavalry. The retreat of the
Tusks was so precipitate that they left behind them the
whole of their baggage and provisions, and even the
cent of their General. O:s our side we have Wined
loss of only one man killed and seven wounded.
"The result of this :grail has been to open our com-
munications with the fleet of Admiral Cirri& just ar-
rived before Varna, and consi ting of eight ships of the
line, five frigates, aid several smaller vessels. .The 3d
brigade of the 7:lr division of infinity coming from
Anapa, on board of this fleet, has already effected a
landing, and united itself with the ogler troops under
the command of Prince Menschikoft.
