| An article dated @Frontiers Of Servia, March
10TH" says
Something disagreeable to the Turks must
! have occurred lately, for the Turks at Belgrade
have as melancholy coun,enances as q the re-
moval Of izzel Mehemed from the Office of
Grand Vizier. The straneest reports are in
circulation, which do not merit notice. II is
said there have been ,umulls, attended with
bloodshed, in Albania, and Servia is not very
tranquil. The order for enlisting all unmar-
ried men has given great dissatisfaction, for if
the Servians are not SO we'll inclined to the Rus
slams as people generally believe, they however
do not show any inclination to fight against
Them. The ice 10 the Danube, begins 10 re-
move, and the navigation will soon be restored,
which will be equally favorable TO trade and TO
military operations. 1t is said that the Sultan
has left Constantinopie, and gone to .Adriano>
pie, but this does not seem TO be quite certain. I"
A paragraph from Odessa, March 10, says
"On the 6h Of February the Lieutenant
Colonel Of the 10th regiment OF chIssrurs sent
Capt. Krassowski with eigh s,icers and three
Cossacks 10 Sci FIRE TO two large two-masted
Turkish vessels, which were iecr wrrsts above
Sis.ow. This officer has executed his mission
with extraordinary boldness."
II is also stated from Odessa, that consi
derable portion of the Russian army, under
General Paskewitcsh, in the Asialic provinces,
had reserved orders TO embark al Sebas,opol
Tor an expedition against Boufgas, which is
next 10 Varna in importance, and situate on
the south of the Balkan mountains. Should
the Russians make good landing al this place
with aay consid. rable force, they would cut Oh
the com munic alton between the grand army Of
the Turks near Schoumla and the capital, while
the Russian feet would intercept All supplies
by wav OF the Black Sea. The pr waite letters
from Constantinople mention a sanguinary bat
lie having taken place At BazardJik, between
Varna and The Danube, in which seven 10 eight
thousand were engaged, but without any dscl.
siye result.
On the 10th OF March news was received at
Odessa tina; 1000 Russian troops had landed
al Aschi,n, 20 The north of B"u'gass, where
the Tu kish batteries aud magazines probably
are in the same m,nner as was done success
fully last cam align at a place on the east coast
Of the Bla, k Sea, still more distant, About
The same time report was spread OF various
eneag, ments in the neigh5orhood OF Varna -
rhe Turks had resolved TO attack that place,
hut their in entiuns were made known to Gen.
Roth. tie Governor OF Vtrna, by some Tartar
prisoprrs. The General immediately marched
on, to anticipate The enemy, and In this rencon-
ire, which was very sanguinary, both parties
lost many men
NV, doub, the stories Of the two battles "a.
boSe m ntioued. If true, they would most as
suredly have been mentioned IN the advices
from .Buchares! and Varna, of still la'er dates.
