horse artillery and O detachment Of muske.eers.
Major Gen Bsklsnof received orders to bring to the
camp all the provisions for which he could find means
Of transport and 10 destroy the rest
On the same day there arrived az the camp General

rected upon KuTouk Oar and SOubotane, and the new
Informed regiment Of Kurds No. ?, numbering Eve
sotnias in good condition. The hOrsemen have
iremely active appearance, are well armed and are
mounted upon good horses,
On the 2lst an additional detachment was sen. from
the camp upon the hamlet Of Ardos TO support Major
General BaklaDof and at the same time accounts 20
the following effect were received from the General:
He reached il APPEAR, the hamlet Of Begly. Akhmet

been a mosque. After putting much be could
upon some chariOts and distributing portion 70 the
troope Msior-Cieneral Baklanoff burnt the rect with
the magazine, and returned the same day 10 Begly-

During the halt of our troops a, Chblakhu the
sOIies of mouniaineers which formed the Outposts
took possession oftwO mails tier way from Erzeroum
to Kars took prisoners the post courier and three
meI accompanying him.
Heavy and iicessant showers fell throughout each OF
these DAYS rendering the roads almost impossible The
Kare-Tehai much swollen, and the pessage OF the
ford near the hamlet of Tikma was verv difficult.
Nevertheless, Major. General Bakanof successfully
crossed the river on the 22Dd. The enemy no,
seen at any time during the expedition The General
has brought away on some carr some provisions found
at Beely Akhmet.
Thus ,our days at the camp Of Mougsrsdjik have
procured us, without the least loss SIDE GER
tain number Of prisoners, including officer, and
considerable quantity Of provisions, while they have
deprived the Turks OF their principal communication
with ETzlOum.
Since Gen. Baklanofis return, small deiachments
have been sent in the direction of SaganiOng, who
have brought away sone Turkish deserers irom the
garrison u Kars.
From our position we can see the fertiicabOns Of
Kars, and the hostile army there shut up. Tle Turks
continue TO strengthen their works Of defense, and TO
construct Others upon certain points. The Turkish
troops have not once left their in'renchments; the
cavalry outposs which they keep within cannon range

well known; and "a he comes direct hom the East, he
will be able TO give important information respecting

that Count Zamoyski can only have been invited to

government TO arrive al come final decision on the
Polish question. We have bad Occasion 70 notice ere
now that the opinion of the Continental Liberals who
are most conversant in the affairs OF the Poles and Of
the countries bordering Poland Is that the present
moment is auspicious for striking blow at Russia IN
that quarter. The nucleus of a Polish Legion already
exists in the sO-ealled Turkish Cossacks, who are
almost exclusively Poles, wearing Polish uniform
and carving Polish ensis If there is any meaning
in the expression used by Sir William Wordsworth at
the Southwark nOminatOn-tO the effect that il il the

Count Zamoyski arrival in this country will be the
prelude TO some decisive movement. The meeting on
