LONDON, Nov I, 1875
The following startling intelligence has somewhat
tended dcadsn confidence in ths pacific solution OF
the Eastern quarrcl:--
A Constantinople despatch to tho Telegraph asserts
that Turkeys offer OF two months armistice, with
: six weeks prolongasion, is . countcr-propos-
tion 70 Russia's altmatum. The Telegraph's
correspondent says gnatie rejected the Portes offer
and gave the Turks forty-cight hours from Tuesday
night to consider tho matter. He adds that tho
archives Of the Russian Embassy at Con-
The Russian Consus in Turkey have been ordered to
move within reach OF tho frontiers.
The correspondent OF tho Daily NeWs al Belgrade
states that great apprehepsons are felt in the upper
sircles Of Servian society OF internal troubles.
A despatch to the Nesos dated Paris, Wednesday

here that to the ultimatum is expected until
Thursday evening At the French Foreign Office

THE WAR.
Particulars from the seat OF convincing IS to
Ihe total overthrow of Servans the last battle
Il Is said the Turks fought with adogged periinacity
and occasionally with brilliant dash which claim
the highest admiration. The Russians fought hard
and stouty, but then the Russians Lad borne the
brunt Of fight afer tight in this very position and
Tor the servians 1t their day. The full weight
and significance OF tho Servans' defeat is not easy
70 estimate, and 1t is TOO early to form
opinion OF the loss incurred We do not know where
the troops are, TO nothing OF the wounded. Many
OF them, fear will never be brought In Tho Deli
grad wing OF the army in condition Of dcmoraza
ton and at least temporary dispersion General Hor
vaiovich with the right wing is retiring out OF reach
OF the Turks and IL would be folly for him to offer pat

assacred for people whom they denounce destitute
OF all martial spirit. They have words to express
their contempt and disgust the pusanimiy OF tho

From Ragusa hear that the Montcncgrins are
bombarding Podgoritza- The Montenegrin army has
penetrated into Albania by way OF MEDIUM, cutting
tho communication between Podgoritza and scutarL
with regard TO tie Turkish armies operating
Their frontier, and proves that far

men and nadtsriel needed for the Morava Valley cx
plains tho weakness of the Turks in the West In
support OF this theory tho operations OF tho Turks
toward Deligrad are etatcd be very vigorous and
is even reported that they have occupied that

their advance northward. despatch to tho Standard
from Belgrade says that Kruschevatz is in flames

despatch TO the Times this morning from Belgrade
confirms the reported agreement to two months

been countermanded, and there arc other cvi-
lcnces OF probable cessation OF hostilities The

Il appears that Porte had already determined

was surprised at its receipt from Lvadia It's also re-
ported that third OF the Russian privates and half Of
the Russian officers in the Servian army have been
killed wounded
