LATE FoREIcN NEws.-The Steamer

w
America arrived at Halifax, on Thursday
bringing Liverpool dates to the 10Th instant
We learn from these, that England, France
&c. have recognized by formal PROTOCOL
the necessity of preserving the presen. ter
ritorial arrangement of Europe, and propose
q congress in which Russia and Turkey
may both be represented. abb Pasho had
invaded Georgia The Turkish Steamer,
noticed in our last as having been captured
by Russian friga,e, had been recap,ured
by Turkish friga,e. Two companies of
Wallachian militia had deserted and Joined
the Turks. The Turkish Government have
rejected the proposition made by England
for an armislic Of three months. The Turks
were victorious in Asia had beaten the
Russians in several bloody battles, and car
red the fortresses Of Saffa and Akistan by
assault. The Russians were completely
routed in battle near Oriska on the 4,h.
Some Americans had joined the Turks
Rome charged with belonging to London
secre, association. Breads,uffs has advan-
ed in England.
LATER.-The steamer Pacific, with later
news, arrived a. New York on Monday
The following items will be found highly
interesting:
Russia and Iurkey.-The greatest nava |
battle since Navarino has been fought, with
terrific loss of life. The total destruction of
.wen,y-one ships Of war, with several trans
ports.
On the 30,h Of November the entire Rus
sian fleet from Sebastspool, under Admiral
Machikof, consisting Of twenty four sail,
appeared off the Turkish harbor of Snope,
where Vice Admiral Osman Bey lay with
fourteen Turkish vessels. The battle imme-
dia,ely commenced, and the shore battle ries
being of no use, the Russians succeeded in
forcing The harbor.
The Turks fought like devils, and would
not surrender. With most desperate brav-
cry they fought until one ship after anolh-
er was sunk, blown up, burned, or Destroy
ed. Seven Turkish frigates, Two corve,ies,
one steamer, end three transports, with sew
eral thousand men, we're totally lost, the
men all perishing. Osman Bey the Turk
ish Vice Admiral, was taken prisoner.
Each of The Turkish ships, besides their
crew, had 500 troops on their way to Cir
cassa. They also had money for the fleet,
all of which was lost.
The Turks, notwithstanding the deslruc-
ton of all their vessels, sunk seven Russian
ships, two Of their line of battle ships, three
frigates and two steamers. The battle last
ed only one hour. The remainder Of the
Russian fleet was so shattered that it could
scarcely reach Sebastspool.
All Europe was in furore of excitement,
and the opinion is general that European
war can no longer be aver,ed.
The Russians continued to gain The advan-
tage, and their loss in the great naval engage
ment, under the circumstances, is fully equal
10 that Of the Turks.
On the line of the Danube there was no
movement,
Omer Pscha was on board the flagship
which rapidly sunk. He was, with his
crew, taken on board the Russian ship.
This important news is fully confirmed
by latter dispatches.
