THE WAR
The war nov + is important. The allied fleets
have bombarded the l.nssan forts at the Suina
mouth of the Danube. The details and result oil
the bombardment are not known
An important battle was fought on the 18th,
between the Turks and the Greek Insurgents
The Turks took Aria by storm III 30 minutes
and great slaughter ensued. The Greeks were
led by Karais Kakis aud Sayeas. The Greek
leader Glovas has fled. Except Piraeus, all the
coast Of Greece is closely blockadcd by the al
lies.
On the 1914 Il battle occurred between the
Turks and Montenegrns at Niehsick. The lat
Ter were commanded by their Wonode, George
Petrorich. Uostilites have fairly commenced,
and it was reported that Austria will occupy the
province
A letter from Dobrudeeha, of the 18th, says.
"Deserters arrived here from the Russian ar
my state that the Danube had overlooked It's
banks and carried away all the bridges. Com
municaton with the south bank of the Danube
had been entirely cut off. The Russians mum
bered 10000 men, and they lost in passing the
river, 4, 900. The place on which they ale en-.
oamped is marshy, and hundreds die daily"
Adyices from Galatz to the 18th say that Rus
sian vessels permitted the few English vessels
in that port to leave. The Consuls Of England
aud France received notice TO leave within eight
days.
II was reported that Marshal Radttsky had
snid to the Duke of Cambridge, on his late visit
Vienna, that the Russians must evacuate the
Prnoipalites, and if they cannot be got out by
fair means they must go out by force.
The Russians had abandoned the siege of Sill
strin.
The success of the Turks near CzernaYoda
was confirmed.
The number of Russian merchant vessels al
ready captured by English men of war appears
from all accounts to have been about twenty five,
besides seven or eight destroyed. greater
number of vessels liable to capture have been
sold to neutral and other houses, and now hoist
IA fling which insures their safety.
BY letters received ON Monday from the Bal
tic it is stated that the blockade of the Russian
and Finnish coasts has already been felt by sew
era neutral vessels.
Prussia has forbidden pryutecrs to enter her
harhors.
The news of Prussia having signed the lust
protocol, it is said, produced great detection in
the mind of the Car.

but set out again the same day for Constantine
pie
II is said that the French Government con
templates establishing n camp OF 10000 men near
Boulognc, with n view to an expedition to the
Baltic, if required.
1t is again positively stated that the French
contingent to the army of the East will amount
10 100000 men. 1t appears that the orders Civ
en- by the Emperor of RUSSIA were for the Rus
sian army the moment ii entered the DObrudscha
20 march on without delay to Shuma, and strike
the blow before the allies could come up. 1t had
not been anticipated that the Turks could arrest
their progress.
