BUCHAREST, May 5.-The new campaign has been
opened already. According to the Russian accounts
10000 crossed the Danube. They in good health
ana well equipped The firm and steady step of the
infantry gives them most martial appearance. The
cavalry Is beautitul-the horses all of the
lour, according TO the divisions to which they belong;
their richly decOl atcd uniform and splendid epauletcS
excite the admiration ofthe people. The Cossaks,
as usual are agile, intrepid, and terrible account
OF their lances, which the Turks and defy the
npetuosty of their attacks. The llussars had been
olsencumbIred oil their Carbnos Tor which lances,
longer than those Of the Cossacks substituted

\ FRONTIERS OF WALLACHiA, May 6.-Thc difficult
ties attending the Russian army increase daily. Con
tagious diseases and the real oriental plague mani
fest themselves i'll Il terrible manner, and cause
ages equally extensive amongst both soldiers and
iiabtants. At Felkschau alone, l65 persons died
within days according TO official reports, 800 fapi-
lies were under quarantine, and both the military
| and inhabitants soI@ht their salvation in flight
which increases the danger, the contag is
thereby spread all sides such degree, that
about 1900 individual Is lay sick in Nullachia. In
tcrnents take place secretly every night and it is
IstE"tly forbidden TO converse about the plague
Even the clements seem to participate in the strug-
gle.
About ) O'Clock in the afternoon Of the 5th, three
severe shocks OF an earthquake felt at Bucla
rest, of which lasted a minute and half luriuo
which the floods Of the Danube dana eed every thing
on both sides of the river and evolved both friends
ami enemies III destruction. The attention of Count
Debitsch continues TO be directed to listria he lat
iy made considerable corps across the Danube near
sOva, 20 advance 1t against that fortress but il was
prevented by ali opposing body Of Turks, who COM
PEELED 1t 10 retreat. An engagement is also sDoken
OF on tn Danube, Silisria, iii which tie Turks
are SAID to have lost 500 men. Count PahIen pro-
cceded on the 5h Ill great haste TO the corps station
ed before the fortress. Gen. kesseleo likewise left
Bucharest for Krajowa in little Wallachia AT Ka-
arash the number in the military lazarctto is every
moment increasing and even the smallest cottages of
the peasants are appropriated for this purpose.
LONDON, June 6.-l-ast night we received the Paris
papers by express, and iii due course the st. Peters
turg journal 10 the Goth ult. and the Journal Odes
/ SD to the 10Th. The Paris papers almost exclu-
sVely occupied with the lnterminable discussion on
the Budget. With the exception of an article in he
| Journal des Debats they contain nothing IRON The
theatre OF war worth noticing The Journal Udes-
sa has i'll Ike manner, not so much allusion
the subject OF hostilies and this is the third fourth
time IN regular succession, that the same omission has
occurred III that paper. This continued silence is
curious, and shows that the Russians lave no cause
to boast Of their exploits either in Europe or Asia
1t shows at the time that i'll the first week O.
/ May, or III the week two Immediately preceding
nothing had taken place before Varna or SiZeboi
which they thought proper desirable TO publish
The Journal de ST. Petersburgh is also without ne ys
OF Importance, indeed of any kind from the scene
OF hosttes, and 1t Is quite needless comment upon
this new omission.
Little belief attaches in the city to the accounts il
the PTnStnn State GH=ette of the success of the Rus
sian army before Siistra which are also at variance
with information contained in letters OF the Esd ut
received this morning from Vienna. In these a differ
ent version is given Of that enga cement with the
Turks which is described in the account first referred
to as having taken place III the attempt to form the
rcinvestment of Sstria. If the least dependence is
to be placed the Vienna letters, the advantage the
gained had cost the Russian army extremely dear.
They state, that the circumstance which brought
on the action was the determination of the Turkish
General to throw and provisions, il possible
into Sistrd, previous to its investment by the Rus
SLAMS. For-tiis purpose a suitable number of men.
with 1900 head of cattle, were collected and thew
all succeeded in getting into strla during the &C.
ton which was most obsnately fought OF the part of
the forks The loss Of the Russians was very severe
not less according the Vienna letters, than 3 600
IN billed and wounded; and great proportion of Off
GERS, 1t is further affirmed fell in the action 10 the
Turks the event is considered little less important
than victory, both on account the dirGinuon the
Russian force has sustained, and its having enabled
them to throw succours into .Sil.sria aud thus TO
lenghen the probable period Of the siege Times.
We have received a letter from our own correspon.

Of Rudschuck and Giurgevo attacked the Russians
before those places and very severe engagement
