Progress Of the War.


Our files of foreign papers have been received, Int
they give no dispatches of later date than those al.
ready reported They abound in speculations the
questi n but they give definite reports upon which
a very accurate opinion of the progress and results
of the war thus far can be based. They give COM
fiicting statements and we shall have to await the
rival Of the Niagara due, for more posi-
tive information We are lcfl in doubt as to whether
the Turks have re.crosscd the Danube and evacuated
the Prncipaliiies pr on the o,h.r hand, marched
upon Bucharest, the head quarters of the Russian
forces in the province of Waachia, aud made sue
cesslul attack upon that town. The London Times
OF November the l7th says
.'No confirmation has been gwen tn the Tumor OF Rus
sian victory Bucharest and the assumption indeed l.
absolutely contraced 10y the Telegraph report OF the re-
newed reverse at Oeuiza. Ii was on the llth that
Prince GOrschakoh, with all the force found available nj
Bucharest was tp have attacked the Turks at oteuitza
once more and IT, therefore, this attack Was rcpused and
the Prince defeated il j. almost impossible that any
thing favourable To the Russian arms should have trans
pired Bucharest. On the contrary that town 'eIi
the headquarters OF the Russians, would have been open
advance OF the Turks either from the night or the let's
does il appear probable that the rcinorceies
now hurrying towards wallach woul arrive IN time to
cave ts capital from Turkish occupation All this tends
show that the news have published oi decisive
Turkish victory under the walls OF Bucharest has ia D.
nothing inrnsici improbable and trust soon 10 be
able fully To confirm 1t.
Whatever may be-the result it is manifest that tie
contest VIII still be actively carried on. We have
