BUCHAREST, June 20.
"The garrison Of Brailow has received per-
mission TO retire 10 Silistria, but as the RUS
siaos are beyond Mutchin and before Silistria,
we do not know which way the garrison Of
Brailow can retreat. 1t is said that great
quantities of am muni,ion, and above 1870 can
mons, were found in the place.

perial camp was removed this morning, with
the Corps d'Armee Of General Roudzewitch,
to Karassou, where the Emperor will remain
till those movements Of concentration are COM
pleted which were announced in our last bulletin.
We have just taken possession Of the for,.
hca,ions of Brailow, In conformity with the
terms Of the ca2itulatioh Of that fortress, the
troops 20 whom lis defence was confded, have
abandoned all The artillery which they possess
ed as vel as the stores which belonged to the
Turks Government, and are themselves to be
sem back towards Silistria. Already 1900 men
are on their march towards that city,escored ty
the regiment de Perme. We do not exactly know
the number If guns and standards, nor the
quantity Of provisions Of all sorts, which have
fallen into our hands, through the conquest Of

had escaped from the battle of the 28th, are in

that Achmed Bry. who commanded the tlotiila,
has been killed in the same battle, while at
tempting to reach Brailow in a small boat.
This morning Lieut. General RudLiger sent

he had vigorously cannonaded on 'he Goth. II

lington. which as the first 10 enter the fortress
a, , O'Clock in the afternoon. The garrison
surrendered on condition of being sent 10 Pra
vod. We have found >, Kustendgi So pieces
of cannon; and a convoy Of So sail Of merchant
men have Jus, en'ered, which came from Odes'
sa, laden with provisions. The possession Of
this fortress is Of g,ea, importance to the future
provisioning of the army. The Seraskier,
Husseim Parha, who was a, Schumla, at the
head, as they say, Of an army of $4,000 men,
had sent 10 the troops WHICH formed the garri>
son of Kulendgi, and Of which one detachment
had been put TO flight at the passage OF the
Danube, an order to defend the place 10 the last
extremity. Thanks to the vigilance OF our
parties Of Cossacks, the courier by whom this
order was sent fell into our hands.
Two hours after the news had been received
Of the fall of Kustendgi, the Emperor received
tina, vi the taking Of Hirsova. That fortress
surrendered to Lieut. Gen. Prince Madatoh--
1t contained 1900 regular troops, but the inha-
bitan,, who ought To have supported them, had
no wish to defend themselves, aud they have
declared, in captivating that they would not
enter SiIis,ria, whittier they were TO be trans
ported with the rest Of the garrison, because
they considered il useless TO tight.
At Hrsova we captured ! standards, $4,000
bullets, $500 pounds Of powder, aud consi-
drrable supply Of barley and corn.
