Supplement- TO The 81. .Peters6ureh hcher
Of Sent. 20, { Oct ., J 1872
90 For information by special command.
Sundry measures are adopting here (in
St. Peters5urgh) for taking away the neces-
sary articles from this city. This by no
means proceeds from any apprehension of
danger to the metropolis a single view OF
the position OF our troops is sufficient to con-
vince every one of this, and 20 calm ever,
lnquietude, for the enemy not. only cannot
approach hitler by the way of the Pakow
and Riga road. but having so often been de
feated by our troops he can scarcely keen
himself there, and will NEST probably. when
the present levies of troops are arrived, not
be able to maintain his position. With re-
gard to the road to Moscow, we allow that
1t is occupied by the enemy, but only for a
very short distance; for Adjutant General
WinZinGerode who is posted with his de.
tachment betweea Klein and Moskwa,
sends his patroles daily close under Mosk-
wa. Our troops are likewise at liver
and besides this, the field marshal comman-
der n Chief OBSERVES the enemy's motions
with his whole army. In consequence he
will neither march hithcr himself. nor de-
tach any considerable part of his troops.
without being pursued by us.
According to all these circumstances,
1t clearly. appears, that this city is not threa-
tened with tie least daDger.'-
