Stirring News.

We received yesterday, in advance of our neigh
bors, full report Of tue Canadas news by the
O'Reily inc. 1t IS interesting. as the reader will
if he shall turn to the Telegrnpc
column and read it.
The report is not altogether clear. Europe and
Asia mixed up IA little" Yet 10 both ure the
Turks brave as lions and success, so far, is on
their SIDE.
The battle-storm rHges fercely on the Danube.
No rest is allowed to the Russians they are as
sailed every quarter. The steamers which
had passed Isakatehi have been destroyed at Hir-
SOFA, some sixty miles South East on the Danube;
and the Turks had been victorious at Tirgsova,
some twenty miles north of Bucharest. This
looks as though the Osmanti had surmounted the
Russians. and sustans the former reports of their
movements. e.'s r
As for Asia. we must wait for details. We
suppose the fighting has been between Ezrum and
Gurnsi but there is ..a lapss iu the report here.
So we must have fuller reports.
One thing, however. is certain. The Turks
seek their assaants, East aud West. They have
the courage, and what is more, show a skill far
beyond what Europe supposed them to possess
The worlds sympathy IS with them. May they
conquer Forest City Democ,at.

The Russians, $4,000 strong, were defeated, and
fed. They were pursued by the Turks, who
planted their standard on the Russian quarters at
Orlett.
The Russians defeated there retreated to Bu-
charest.
AS we understand the Telegraph, the TURKS
made an assault upon this stronghold of the Rus
Sims.
The left wing of the Turkish army dashed on
again and defeated 5000 at Tortoga, and pressed
again Bucharest.
It is hopeless to expect that diplomacy can end
the difficulty until after a decisive battle. The
typhus fever is raging in the Russian ranks, which
has reduced their fighting men to $500. 1t will
be six weeks before reinforc, ments arrive.
The Porte has decided not employ foreign
refugees frcm Europe-but may receive those
coming from Asia. ConstantinopIe is quiet.
The British feet at Spitshead has been ordered
to get ready for sea on the Illh-destination not
known.
The Emperor of Austria was concentrating
large masses of troops the Servan frontier
The Governor of Servia ordered his population to
arm, and informed the Austrians that the Porte
would not permit her 10 occupy Servia.
The Porte warned Austria that Turkey will
expect her TO prohibit the Russians from supplying
the Montenegrins with arms through Port Catau.
The Porte proposes that if Austria remains pei
fectIy neutral, that he will refrain from employing
Hungarian refugees.
Latest important news. that thirty Russian
Ulcers arrived prisoners of war at Constantiuope
The English and French fleets anchored in the
Bospherous. 1t is rumored that Bucharest has
been stormed by the Turks. A son of Omar
Pacha has been named Minister of War.
A French levy of troops is making in Egypt to
assist the Turks. Great enthusiasm prevailed.
The Turkish army is paid promptly in specie.

complete evacuation of the PrincipaIities as

According to latest accounts from Constantine
Pile, the Sultan positively rejected all proposals

1t is freely reported in Paris that 25 900 French
