FOREIGN zNTErIraHNCE.
Bythe arrival at Boston on "Wednesday

Nye, from Liverpool, we have received
our regular files Of London papers up to
the 10Th ultimo, inclusive. We are in
debted TO Mr.. Topliff for the loan of
Liverpool paper of the 2ist.-Dai Ado.
Accounts from the East agree in stat
ing that the hope of peace between Rus
STA and Turkey is no longer entertained,
and that preparations are making on both
sides, for carrying on the war with increas-
ed vigour. A German paper contains an
article dated Semlin, July "a, which
states that division of Turkish cavalry
has received orders to march from Bel
grade to Silistra. Six thousand men
were on their march from Bosnia to REIN
force the army ofthe Grand Vizier. The
militia were assembling in all quarters.
Great uneasiness was said to prevail in the
Turkish capital.
The London Courier of Tuesday even
ing, August 18th, says, that official advi-
ces had been received at st. Petersburg,
of the capture, on the 9th Of June, of
Erzeroum, and the fortress of Hassam-
Kale. At Erzerum the Seraskier him
self and four other Pachas were made
prisoners, and $50 cannon had fallen into
the hands of the Russians, of which 80
were taken at Hassam-Kale. The cap
ture Of this important city leaves all Asia
open to the Russians.
Intelligence Of another character, how
ever, had also been received, which had
damped the publick exultation and crea-
ted general alarm. 1t announced that the
plague was fast approaching Odessa, and
that decided cases of that tremendous dis
Norder had occurred within three miles of
that city. The inhabitants were full of
CONSERVATION, all business was suspended,
and, as is customary in yisltations of this
nature, every family was provisioning
themselves, and making preparations for
locking themselves up in their houses till
the destroying scourge should have passed.
An idea may be formed of the importance
attached to this intelligence by the Rus
sian Government, when it is recolected
that Odessa was the grand depot whence
all the magazines of the army were sup
piled, and that if it be reduced to desert
for the space of few monthslonly, the
legions now beyond tie Balkan may be
stopped for want of provisions in their VIC
torious march, or delivered up helpless by
famine into the hands of their enemies.
The accounts from Odessa respecting
the plague are to the 9th July. There
was nothing new from General Diebitsh's
army.
A detailed bulletin is published from
the st. Petersburgh Gazette of the battle
between Gen. Diebitsch, and the army of
the Grand Vizier, near Paravadi, on the
18th of June. 1t concludes with the fol-
lowing statement of the loss of the two
, armies; Russian loss, killed 80 staff and
SUPERIOR officers, 1899 priyates wounded,
Major Gems. Otroschtschenks and Glase-
nap, 30 staff and superiour officers, and
1909 privates. The loss of the enemy
was far greater. Besides prisoners, he
lost in the battle and flight 5000 killed.
the whole baggage Of the army, his'own
equipage, six standards, and 43 cannon.
A report from Count Diebitsch, dated
July 81, says that in the action of Gen.
Roth on the 18th in passing the Kamtchitu,
and taking the Turkish camp, Ibrahim
Pacha, who commanded there, was killed.
The report adds, to-day the corps of
Gen. Rudiger is in Aiwadschik, and his
vanguard in Serketsch; Gen. Roth's
corps is in Jerekidere, and his vanguard
in Paliobana, and Sernine, so that the
SUBMITS of the Great Balkan are in our
hands. The corps of Count Pahlen is
advancing on the road of Aiwadschik, and
will halt at the little river FordukIdere,
where it is intended to have the head
quarters to-day. The enemy has attempt
ed nothing against the corps Of General
Krassowsky. On the 18th the Grand
Vizier with 5000 cavalry appeared on the
heights on the right bank of the little river
Jerehli, and having made his observations,
he left some outposts on the right bank of
that river, and returned to Schumla."
Accounts from Ancona to July 26th
speak Of report received there from the
Levant, that the Pacha of Egypt was pre-
pairing great naval expedition, and as
sembling men of war and transports to
carry troops. 1t is thought that this ex-
pedition is destined to carry troops to aid
the Sultan. The Russian squadron un-
der Adm. Heyden was assembling at Po-
ros to watch the movements of these
Egyptians.
Letters from Greek houses at Odessa
were shown on Change at Vienna, Aug.
5,stating that Gen. Paskewitch had taken
Erzeroum in the middle of July and had
made 10000 prisoners.
The Paris Constitutional has para
graph under date of Bucharest July Oath,
which says: " at last the Balkan has been
crossed by 60, 600 Russians, & it is natural
that all eyes should be turned to the move
ments of this army, whilst the Grand
Vizier remains with from 80, 900 to 40, 900
