FOREIGN.
The War in the East.

LONDON, May 11.-The Russians are
having considerable trouble about trans
portation. The small country carts are
insufficient for military purposes. One of
the first things the Russians did on
entering Roumania was to apply TO that
government for three thousand carts TO
meet transportation demands.
The Turkish troops purpose movement
against Herzegovina.
Persia has declared its intention not to
join Russia.
The Turks have captured two hundred
Russian vessels in the Danube, containing
over thirteen hundred Hectolitres of
wheat. A reconnoiterlng expedition of
five hundred Russian infantry crossed the
Danube in boats little below Rein. The
Turks allowed them to come we'll within
range when they opened up such a heavy
fire that the Russians were compelled to
retreat to their boats with serious loss.
The Russians have crossed Alenta and
entered Little Wallachia, which it was
expected would be occupied solely by the
R0umanians. The Russian floating bat
teries on the Danube are small but inge-
niously made. consisting of three pom
toons joined together. Each battery
carries one gun. The pontoons were
tioated down the the Pruth and joined the
Russians. They have some large steamers
armed. General Skobaliff,s division of
Circassian Cossacks. intended to head the
advance of invasion, is passing through
Bucharest en- route for the Danube.
A dispatch from Jassy says that a Rus
