| RUSSIAN EVACUATION OF TIE PERSONALITIES
| VIENNA, Monday, June &c, lS5l.-rhe
night before last the Russian reply to the
| Austrian note reached here. 1t is TO the effect
| tria, Russia consents to cvacuatc the Turkish
territories.
The latest London alvicrs state that the
entry of the Austrains into the Principalitics
is decided on, and Count Coronini, with the
first division, to he closely followed by Sec
"nd, is ready to descend the Danube to CUR
gcvo, whence he will march TO Bucharest. VI.
tic Bruck is to communicate with the Porte
as to the steps necessary to be taken, with a
view to this occupation by the Austrlans. TO
avoid danger OF collision, the Russians will
retire before the .NStrians advance.
Letters from the Danube mention that the
| Russians are leaving their sick behind in tie
hospitals, and the most stringent orders have
been given by the Turkish authorities to res
poet them, and also to deliver free passports
to the Russian surgeons who may be left in
attendance.
| ConStantinople letters of June 10, confirm
the news that the AustranS will occupy the
Princiralitics till the conclusion of general
peace
| RETREAT or TIE RussrASs FROM SIIISTRlA.
On the 18th of June the garrison of Silis-
tlia made a sortic, attacked the Russians at
all points, and drove thom across the Danube.
Pursuing their advantage, the Turks cross
cd an arm of the river, seized the opposi e
island, where the enemy had constructed
siege works, and from which Silis;r;a had
been bomlmrdcl. The Russians fled to tie
Wallachian bunk of the Danube, and were
compelled to witness the destruction of their
batteries.
There was nothing voluntary Of. strategic in
the fright Of the Russians. The defeats which
preceded the route of the lOh, had been fol-
lowing hy extensive movements, with the OBJ
jcct of reinforcing the bcsciging corps. On
the 18th and 18TH it was said at Kalarascl,
''SStria must be taken speedily, and at any
cost" The expulsion of the Russians is en-
tircly the work of the Turks.
A despatch from Vienna, dated the 25,h
inst, says :--"1he Russians are in full re-
treat to Alollayia. The Russians in the
DobrudScha are also retiring. y Turkish
army 20, 900 strong, is advancing to relieve
Rassova. Omcr Pasha is advancing with his
entire force to the Danube"
TIE SLAIN At SlIlSrRIA.
We have no data, as yet, upon which to
base reliable estimate of the killed and
wounded at Silistria. What reports we have
IN that connection, moreover, come to lis
through channels, exclusively English and
French.
Gen. SchildcrS Is dead. Gems. GortSchakoif
and LADDERS both severely wounded, Uhc lat
ter with his lower jaw shot away were at
Bucharest. Estimates show that the Russians
have lost $4,000 men, by battle and disease,
since they set foot in the princiralitics.

haste. They take with them the horses, oxen
wheat and everything movable on which they
