ODESSA, July 20. An Abide Camp of
General Paskevitsch brought the day before
| yesterday the following news:-
The imperial celors are flying on the walls
OF the important fortress of Kars, which was
taken by storm on the 18th of July, at 8
O'Clock In the morning. Upon an eminence
which commands the town on the southwest
side, was an entrenched camp, which it was
absolutely necessary to get possession of in
order to carry on the siege. Our troops at
tackled the Turks with impetuosity with the
bayonet, and dislodged them from that for
/ mldab!e position, Notwithstanding their SUI
perlorlty in numbers, and the vigorous ress-
lance they made. In the pursuit they passed
three ramparts by which we made ourselves
masters of the suburbs, and some part of the
garrison had time to escape into the citadel.
Terrified by our success, the enemy to the
number of 5000 men, laid down their arms
besides 1850 who were made prisoners dur
ing the attack. Among the prisoners are
one Mehemet Jamin, Pacha of Two Tails
the Commander of the Cavalry, Vail Aga,
and many other officers. The attack con-
tinued three hours; the ground occupied by
the Camp, as well as the suburbs, were COW
cred with the Turkish slain. The loss of
the enemy in killed and wounded, is 1900
5000 cavalry who were in the fortress, es-
capped into the mountains. The garrison
amounted to III 900 men. We had one Off
Ger and 80 privates killed; one Captain, ID
| officers, and 2l6 privates wounded. We
! found in the fortress Isl pieces Of cannon,
33 standards, and considerable quantity of
ammunition, arms, magazines of corn, &c.
Kars is one of the principal fortresses of
| Asia.
| The thirteenth bulletin of the Russian
army says, that " On the 18th July, near
| Varna, General Count Suchtelinhad sharp
engagement with the garrison of Jeni- Bazaar,
which made a sally and repulsed it with
considerable loss. On the 18th, the Impe-
J rial head quarters arrived at Jasitepe.
son the 18th, the head quarters moved to
Turk Arnoutbar, in fertile country and,
on the 10Th, they moved to the eminences of
IJeni-Bazar, opposite the enemy's out-posts,
whose tents were on the heights of Choum-
la. On the Goth, the army marched towards
Choumla; the enemy, consisting of eight or
ten thousand men, cavalry and artillery, Wig
orously defended the eminences, but were
driven back into the entertainments before
Choumla, and the army Immediately bivou-
acked on the eminences opposite that place.
Our loss is inconsderabe. On the 2lst,
par: OF our army occupied without resistance,
the heights near to Choumla.

BUCHAREST, July Is. Private letters from
Gallacy say, that the Russian van guard had
a sharp engagement on the 9Th of July, with
corps of Turkish Cavalry, near Bazardjik.
the result of which seemed at first doubtful
though it ended to the advantage of the Rus
slams. The Turks, say the same letters, were
compelled on the following day to abandon
| the advantageous position of Kuezac and to
to retire to the entertainments of Beghirli,
which are the key to the passes of Choumla.
1t is believed here, that the strong position
of Chouma will be speedily abandoned by
the Turks, and that the Russian army will
advance without much opposition against
! Adrianople.
EVACUATION OF GREECE.
The news OF the speedy evacuation Of
Greece by Ihrahim Pacha and his Egyptian
Arabs, will be received with the highest
satisfaction by the American public. There
is no doubt but that, with the knowledge
and consent of the Porte, the European Adj
mirals and Count Capo dIstrias have bad
an interview with Ibrahim Pacha, and have
made formal convention with him to supply
his army with provisions from Zante, on his
engaging to evacuate the Morea by the be-
| ginning of August. An English brig was sent
to Alexandria to procure the vessels neces-
sary for the conveyance of the troops. Till
the time of evacuation shall actually be eff
fected,t the blockade of Navarino, Gambia, and
Alexandria is merely for the purpose of OBJ
servation, as an armistice, in fact, exists.
We fiatter ourselves here that the Ambas-
sailors will soon land AZ Vourla. Ibrahim
has lately released 800 Greek prisoners at
the request of Admiral de Rigny.
