Notes from ABROAD.
The Servian forces, under Gen. Tcher-
nayeff and Papovich, simultaneously at
tackled the Turks, Thursday morning, Sep
TENDER %, and drove them beyond Teschit-
20. During the engagement, the Servian
artillery fired seven calssons OF gunpowder
in the Turkish ammunition depot. The ex-
plosion caused fearful havoc among the
Turks. Gen. Hervatovich made flank
movement, and occupied the heights in the
rear of the Turkish position. 1t is stated
that the Turkish army is threatened on three
sides, namely: Gen. Tchernayef, with the
bulk of the Seryian army threatens, their
front; Gen. Papovich their left wing, and
Gen. HervatOvich their rear. The fighting
lasted till eight o'clock that night and was
resumed the next morning.
The London Standards Belgrade dispatch
reports that the Servian forces between
Alexinitz and Deligrad are estimated at one
hundred and twenty men, with one hundred
and forty guns. The only aim and result OF
Seryia's accepting an armistice was to secure
| time for General Tchernayeff to assemble an
army in that quarter and surprise the
| Turks, it being his intention to cut
of FASH Pasha's army from Uisch,
drive it into the mountains in the Krus-
keyatz district, and there destroy 1t. AS
has already been reported, the effort was
unsuccessful. The Servian loss that day
was at least two thousand..:.....R Robert Lowe

The London Telegraphs correspondent a
Constantinople represents that strong wal
spirit is manifested by the populace. Tn,
commencement of hostilities with Russi,
would be welcome to the Mussulmans, and il
considered by them as unavoidable. A tele
gram to the London Daily Neaos from Ragus,
regrets that the losses of the Montenegrin
in the campaign, which amount to fou
thousand killed, have produced reaction il
favor of peace, and it is possible that sepa
rate treaty with the Porte will be made.
