sian army was collecting in the valley of
Sooltania, TO co operate with Russia
against Turkey. Consequent upon this,
news the British parliment was to assem-
bic forthwith. Reports from CONSTANT
nople expressly contradict the statement
that Persia was hostile TO Turkey.
The emperor OF Russia had issued an
arrogant manifesto, in which, after recap
ituIating the leading points in the contro-
versy. he says: Turkey having enrolled
in her ranks an army Of revolutionists
from all countries, has commenced hos
tilities on the Danube, and Russia has
been provoked to combat and now no

The French Consul at Eucharist, under
date of Nov. 9Th, telegraphed as follows:
"On the Cd and Sd inst, the Turks
crossed the Danube from Cortukai, $4,000
strong; on the 4th the Russians attacked
them with 5000. and after brisk can
nonade and combat by bayonet, the
Turks maintained their position. The
battle lasted three hours. The Russians
lost several officers, and l8 subalterns
we're killed and 479 wounded" The loss
sustained by the Turks is not stated. An.
other account from Vienna says ID Rus.
sian officers were killed. and the Turks
remained master of the field, the Russ.
ians falling back on Eucharist.
Before the Turks had corossed the
Danube. body of Cossacks came to the
river bank and made signs so insulting
that the Egyptian force rushed to the
boats and rowed over in the face of the
CosSacks, and completely routed them
chasing them inland and then returned in
triumph to their camps.
Advices from Constantinope say that
Selma Pacha had crossed tire Russian
frontier in Asia, and two battles ensued,
in which 5000 men were engaged on each
side; when night came on both armies fell
back. and the engagement was renewed
the next day, when the Russians were
defeated.
The boy officer. Selma Pacha. then fell
back TO the main body of Turkish forces,
and the Russians being reinforced. by
which their number was augmented to
X 900, another engagement took place,
and desperate conflict ensued. The
Russians we're again defeated, and fled
in disorder. They were pursued by the
Turks, who succeeded in planning their
standard upon the Russian quarters at
Ofell. and the Russians fell back to Blu.
charist, where the main body, $4,000
strong, under Gen. Danenbery, is posted.
The news is thus summed up: The
Turks have beaten the Russians in Asia,
and the Turkish LEFT wing in Europe has
beaten the Russian right. comprising the
principal force OF the Russians. and the
Turkish center had beaten 1000 RUSS.
ians, and were at the.last accounts press
