only Withdraw the Egyptian troops IRON the Mo-

by Turks. Six thousand Turks are said to occupy
Eubea and the Acropolis
The reported deficiency in the revenue, saws the
correspondent OF the Liverpool Albion, the TACT of
which Is now pretty we'll established, has caused
some surprise IN this city, especially consump-
t'on IN most articles isgoiDg oh at rate fully equal
TO that oil last year. The difference, however
winch now exists against the Government may a.

ported, which was very considerable at this period
oi the last year, and now yields nothing. The de-

i ieSsened before the end oil the quarter.

the existence oil great discomfort among the sold

LONDON, Aug. 3l.-To the great surprise and
! disappointment OF the public, another week has
passed without bringing any intelligence of the
battle which was expected TO be SO sanguinary and
decisive Of the fate OF Turkey. We can account
Tor this delay only upon the supposition that the
Russians find the Turks too formidable to be at
tackled, for had the Russians met with any sic.
cess, they would have been active in circuat-
ing the news; and had they met with any severe
check the AuStrians would have circulated il for
them.
The foreign papers have reported both he cap
lure OF Shumla and the defeat OF the Russians be-
tore that places but all we can depend upon H. that
the grand army has possessed itself OF the woods
and heights which surround the town, in doing
which they had several severe skirmshes with the
Turkish cavalry and infantry which ended in the
defeat and fight Of the Musseln.sus The last bull
| letin was dated the 18th OF July, from the camp
round Shumla, and tue army broke up fIom Ba.
Jardick on the 10Th July, it had been twelve days
| IN making SO short progress. There is report
that arna has been captured, and we do mol think
| 1t improbable. The Emperor had left head GUAR
ter and pI oceedej TO Odessa in order 10 give ac
| uvity TO the forwarding of supplies TO the army,
aud Tor the purpose cf meeting the Enyoys OF the
great powers OF Europe, sent 10 lin in CONSEQUENCE
OF his success having opened TO him the me ans OF
becoming the absolute master OF Turkey. What
Is the present position OF the war! The Russians
have possessed themselves, with the exception
| ot Silistria, Shuma and Varna, OF the whole PEE
ninsuia, or triangular territory, having the Black
Sea and the Danube upon lis two side and tn.
| Baltic as IFS base T..is is more than Russia ac-
| CURED IN the last war, after FIVE years of hard

Tor though the populatic- is enthusiastic against
them, their force Is sufficient TO put down all u-
multi and having the command OF the sea, ihey
can feed their army the foot the Balkan almost
80 cheaply as they could at Odessa. IL appears
that they intend TO mask Shumla in which case il
must soon surrender for want OF provisions; for
town with sixty thousand inhabitants and an ar.
my oil twice that nu.nber, cannot resist blockade
| The supply of Shuma from the south, over the
Balkan, would be difficult. Whist Shumla will he

pressed with vigour-for its capture would de-
pend The facility OF supplying the army during win

SO enthusiastic the Turks, that in the late Sc
we're conflicts III the trenches before Varna some of
tho brayest OF the combdtants were found to be the
civil inhabitants of the place. The fate Of Varna
VIII depend upon the Russian feet; and il appears
to US that the marine is not in state to give the
support TO the army that was expected. The ex-
petition round the southern shores OF the Euxne
would seem to have primarily in view the capture
oil the imfntnce ores oil copper and other valuable
articles which the Turks have accumulated in thar
quarter. Our government has received despatch
