receution BERLIN, Oct. VI.
On the 26th Sept, a manifesto was issued
at St. Petershurgh, ordering levy OF tour
men of every 500 of the population. Inc
levy is to extend to the whole empire, win
the exception of Besserabla and Georgia.
The preamble of the manifesto is III the
following terms: Notwithstanding the sue
cess of our arms in the present war against
| the Ottoman Porte, and our sincere wish
to put an end to hestiities, the enemy, ny
his refusal to listen to our proposals Tor
peace, ami hy his ohsiinacy ohllges us 10
take new measures for prosecuting this war
and we consider it necessary to make our
army complete. Estimating the population
liable to the levy now ordered. at 30,OOO,OO0,
the number of recruits will be 240,UUn men.
ODESSA. Sept. %.
We learn from our camp before Varna,
that the Capt Parha, after most of the
houses. and great part OF the Notifications
had beer destroyed, has asked 10 leave the
town unmolested. This proposal was re-
iected Ivy Count WoIownow. Further ac-
counts were impatently expected. The
news from Asia continues to he favorable,
and the victorious progress of Gen. Paske-
witsch has succeeded the most sangulne
expectations.
JAssY, Sept 20.
! Gen. Roth has chosen Kirsowa as the
point Of rendezvous for his corps. The I'M
! favorable result of the combat of the 18th
near Silistria. was the consequence OF Il
! panic, occasioned by the appearance of
some Spahis in the rear of the Turkish
troops. The operations against SllIstrla
will probably recommence after the arrival
of reinfoFcarnentS
BUCHAREST, Sept. 90.
The accounts from the theatre of war
become more and more serious. On the
9th Hussein Bey being informed of the
preparations of the Russians to evacuate,
made ii general attack upon their entrenrh-
ments. The Imperial troops displayed the
most brilliant valor, and repulsed them;
hut, nevertheless. they fell back to Jenl-
ba2ar, where they stopped only one day,
and prepared to retreat towards BazardlIk.
The privations of all kinds have produced
excessive misery in the ranks of the Mus
covies. The road from Cnoumla to Jeni-
bazaar is literally covered with dead, sick
and wounded, and carcasses of Russian
horses. Such ravages have been caused
Ivy the excessive heat OF the climate, which
could not he overcome by the most admira-
!
comparable valor.
BUCHAREST, Sept. p.
The Russian army, which retreated fiom
before Chouma, arrived on the 18th Sept
at Baiardschlrk 1t was presumed that it
would not delay to continue its march to
lsaktchka. In consequence of the daily
attacks of Hussein Bey, the general retreat
of the Russians may be easily accelerated,
and Varna delivered especially if the re-
ports that have been in circulation these
| four days should be confirmed. 1t is said
that, in consequence of a sortie ny the gar
J rison of Silistria, whirh was 25.OO0 men
strong. the army of Gen. Roth, observing
that place, has been totally beaten and dis
persed. 1t is added, that whatever part
fell into the hands of the Turks, has sought
its safety in flight, leaving 30 pieces of
| cannon behind, and that it WAS not till
evening that the troops could be rallied.
The Turks have destroyed all the works
OF the Russians; so that there is no chance
OF even dreaming to recommence the siege.
On account of this check. Gen. Roth had
been dismissed from his command, as it is
asserted. However, as the direct commu-
nlcatlons with Varna, ny way of Choumla.
are interrupted, these statements seem to
require confirmation. Prince Sherhateff
is TO re-organize the corps of Gen. Roth.
Exclusive of the bridges over the Danube,
which the Turks possess at Giurgevo and
Sllstria, they have likewise other passages
near Semnltz and elsewhere. where they
tortiiy themselves without any opposition.
1t is, therefore, to he feared, that as the
Russian army has not single point Of
retreat near Isakt,'hka, the Turks will push
into the principalities upon several points.
and lay that country waste, in such man
ner as to render it impossible, or at least
very hazardous, TO seek winter quarters in
the municipalities. The boldest minds are
struck with sinister preseniments.
HAMBURGER, Oct. TO-
letter from Frankfort says. that letters
rereived from Vienna, represented the pres
ent campaign of the Russians as completely
at an end, and the Emperor as about to
return to st. PetersLurgh Count Wttgcn
stein, it is said, is to he superseded in his
command. and Gen. Ugarow appointed to
succeed him.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Sept Is.
In the course of the last fortnight,
great movement has been remarked among
the foreign diplomatists, and even in the
palace of the Porte. 1t is said that very
serious affairs are under considerations.
The Ministers of the Porte being informed
OF the motives which have compelled the
Viceroy of Egypt to agree to the conven
ton relative to the Morea, appear, if they
do not give it their appreciation, at least
not to lmpute it as a crime to Mehemet Ali
hut it appears that all possible measures
are adopted 10 remedy the evil caused BY
their speculations, and that it is intended
TO substitute, as speedily as possible, other
Ottoman troops for the Egyptians, who are
to he embarked.
The Porte does not regard without deep
regret, the close alliance of her most an
rlent allies, france and England) with her
