LONDON, Tuesday, April 4, 1851.
On the ODD and 2i.h ult. two colunns of Russians
crossed the lower Danube One, under the command
of Gen L1ders started from Galstz, at the extreme
northern angle of the DobroJja the other uaicr
Prince Gorchakoa himself, from Braila They found
little resistance the Turkish advanced forces oon
centrated themselves In the orresses of lsaktsha AMI
Matshin The Russians have invested the two forts.
and advanced according to the last news, mp to h rso
va on the Danube while the Turks hold the nights Of
Bsbadsgh and have concentrated their principal forces
between Karassa AMI KOstende, on the narrow neck
between the marshes of the Danube aud the Black
Sea No serious conflict has as yet taken place. We
do not know the exact figures Of the Russian forces
which have crossed but il is believed that they amount
to about As 900 The Turks in the Dobrodja are
under the command Of MustaPha Pashar ndamoant to
twenty battalions or from 900 to 10000 meo, OF
regular infantry; 1900 rreguars, on foot one regiment
of regular aud one Of irregular cayary-altogether
$500 horses-with forty-eight cannoDs. 0mer Pssia
has high idea of Mustapha Pashas generalship Ina
few days we may hear of conflict either at Babadagh
or along the wall Of Tjan between Karassa and tho
Euxine
Though the Emperor of Austria has often declared
that in case of the Russians crossing the Danube Aus
tria would take decided step, we heard on Friday
last from Lord John Russell that the Cabinet Of Vienna
strongly condemns the aggressive movements Of tho
Gar but still does not feel inclined 10 take any hostile
step against Russia Lord Clarendon. In the mean
time, expresses his satisfaction with the straight
forward (9 policy of Austria. Indeed, this does not
seem as if the English Government were in earnest
even after the declaration Of sgainst Russia II
i.kt in
ing that the object Of England is 70 destroy Turkey
The Russians cross the Danube while they have an
Austrian army of 900 men in their they must
therefore be fully satisfied that this army will In no
case interfere with the plans Of the Car. But tho
fleets of England and France likewise remain idle IN
Becos Bay though it is known that the Russian doet
has left sevsstopol; and Lord Raglan has not Jet
left England, while the English troops quietly
csmped at Malta aud the French army not yet under
sail Andi ia under such circumstances that Lord Red
clife il hsggDg with the Sheik-ellslam sboat tho
concessions TO the Christian Kayaks while the Greeks
have risen n the mountains Of Thessay and eqnspirs
cy has been detected in COnstantinople which exends
over great portion of Bulgaria. OF course ths moro
fanacs Turks are highly excited and believe that the
real enemy Of Turkey not the Car, but LS I'd Red
clife the man who arrested the victorious pr gress Of
Omer Pashs tie man who, BY preventing tn Turkish
fleet from putting TO sea- caused the dsssts at Sinope
and who now instead Of hurrying the Es gi.h troops
10 Turkey is squabblng about the gris ysnces of the
Christians and wishes TO have eOncesso q. extended 10
thenas for instance the right Of def ading the coui
try,-which those Christians abhor. Taey dread tho
eonserpton than the cspitatoy TAX but woald Of
course be glad if they could get rid at once Of the K
adj and Of the conscription. Tn sheikel Islam and
Riiaat Pssha have been dismiss d IL. consequence of
the inrgues Of Lord Redclie who fosters schism ia
the Turkish cabinet just at u se moment when union
aud force are most wanted lie is tue evil genius
Of Turkey, and the opinion begins to gaia ground ia
England, that the Aberdes cabinet Is consciously be-
trsyDg the Sultan and orkng for the ultimate parti-
ton of Turkey, under the pretense Of defending ia
integrity and indepeU ience.
According to adv ices from Vienna, the treaty be-

point. J. The ~ arantee Of the integrity Of Turkey.
