Goth, has arrived. She brings intelligence
that hoStilitieS had ceased between the
Turks and Russians in Europe for the
winter, but that in the meantime the
Turks continued to he successful over the
Russians in Asia. New attempts at re-
Cancellation were being made.
Egypt had prohibited the export of
grain.
The steamer Attic arrived out on the
Odd. She got ashore for few hours on
Burbo Bank during fog, but sustained
no damage.
The steamer Golden Age refuses to

From the Seat Of War.
Letters from Constantinople of the 10th,
show that the operations at Oltcnitza
were only feigned attacks on the part of
the Turks, designed to deceive Gortsca-
kotf. The plan succeeded, and Omer
Pasha is combining his troops to attack
the divisions Of Gen. LuderS, in Beesara-
bia, the Ottoman fleet in the Black Sea to
cooperate with the land forces in the at
| tack. The Porte had received from the
British and French Ambassadors assur-
ances of effective cooperation in case of
need, so that the feet can be sent into the
Black Sea without fear of leaving the cap
ital exposed
The Paris PGtrie has despatch from
Vienna, dated November Dist, stating
that the Russian army had received or
derS to assume the offensive, and cross
the Danube.
There were more rumors of diplomatic
notes, but none that could be relied upon.
For the present hostilities have ceased all
| along the Moldavian and Wallachian
lines. Floods in the Danube prevent op-
erations, but it was expected that fight
ing would be renewed. Letters from
Vienna Of the Odd state that Omer PaSha
had received orders from Constantinoplc
20 prosecute the war with vigor, and that
the Gar had sent similar instructions to
GOrtscakof1.
In the meantime diplomacy was again
active. On the eth the British steamer
Fury brought to Constantinople the draft
of a new Anglo-French note; which the
Porte declined to consider. A more COM
prehenSive proposal had been prepared at
Paris by Napoleon.
1t was said that Count Walowski, the
the French Minister at London, had re-
turned from Paris with the draught Of
this treaty agreed to by France and Eng
land, in which the other powers would be
invited to join. If the Austrian state
ments are to be credited, the Gar has
replied to an inquiry of Austria that he
will propose project of peace. The
Sultan is said to be equally disposed to
come to terms, but will not be the first to
rctract. He has, however, sent Faud
Efcndi as Imperial Commissioner to the
army on the Danube to restrain the ardor
of Omer Pacha, and thus give diplomacy
another chance.
The following is the present position of
military affairs Omer Pasha holds Kale-
tat with 10000 troops and IS fortifying
himself IN the strongest manner in the
triangle between Krajoya, Kalafat and
Marobla, thus securing communication
between both banks, and having the base
Of his operations to act on in Lesser
Wallachia. The Turks under Ishmael
Pasha had fought the Russians under
Gen. Bach, and took them. A rumor
from Vienna, which is not credited, saws
that the Turks had been ordered from
Constantinople to abandon kalafat.
1t IS said that Olner PaSha gave as
reason for re-crossing the Danube, that
Gen. Parlof' exposed his troops to supe-
~ or L.. IL
torcementS arriving to the Russians so as
to make them twice as strong as the
Turks, he retired to avert the same disas-
ter that befell Parloff
On the 18th, the Turks attempted to
surprise the Russian post of Turmal,
but were discovered and returned to Kal-
atat
The Turks must soon abandon the Is
lands opposite Turtukai and Kustuch,
as the rise of the Danube overfowS them.
The Russian Bulletin says that their
batteries drove the Turks from the Island
opposite Giurgero, but the latest accounts
say the Turks still hold it.
The success of the Turks in Asia con-
tlnucs to be most brilliant. The Egyp-
tan squadron keeps watch on the coast
from Trebi Sande Kedout kale More
Turkish ships were entering the Black
Sea, and naval battle was daily expect
ed. The Turks had captured fort St.
Nicholas, and now hold it, having repuls-
cd the Russians three times. The militia
Of Alarunstan, who had been equipped by
Russia had gone over to the Turks.
