TIE SIEGE OF PLEVNA.

LONDON, Oct II, 1877.
Russian official bulletins from Pleyna say that
siege operations are making progress. The Russian
batteries fire in concentrated salvos directed stimuli
taneonsly upon one point The fire appears to have
considerable effect on the positions, the lombard
lnent being carried on with great violence. The
Roumanians have not yet occupied the second
Grivitza redoubt, though the report is again tele-
graphed that the Turks have evacuated it,
Last Thursday forty Turkish soldiers, chiefly Ana
tolians deserted from Osman Pasha, and arrived at
the Russian quarters at Simnitza under escort.
They said they had deserted because there SO
little food in Plevna that the men only got pound
of bread in twentyfour hours. There were, they re-
ported. 1870. 900 men in Plevna who could only he
made to surrender by hunger.
Osman Pasha telegraphs that the enemy attacked
his positions on the right wing on Friday. The at
lacking party which consisted Of only one battalion
and some sappers, was repulsed. This attack was
doubtless intended to draw Osman's attention away
from Grlvitza as the Bucharest semi official paper
EOma1uI of Saturday evening, announced that the
Roumanians had thrice heroically attacked the
second Grivitza redoubt, but were repulsed.
DETAILS OF THE ASSAULT
LONDON, oct. u, 1877.
Russian official dispatch from Gorny-Studen re-
ports that in one of their assaults on Friday, the
Roumanians entered and occupied the second Grv-
liza redoubt before Plevna, but during the evening
the redoubt was recaptured by the Turks.
Reuter- telegram, dated Poredn, Saturday, says
the Roumanians captured the reaoubt on Friday
after three vigorous assaults, but during the night
the Turks, collecting all their forces recaptured it
after most sanguinary contest 1t was expected
that the fighting would continue Saturday.

The great Russian victory has been followed by
rumors of panic in COnstanlnople. and sangulne
expectations in Russian circles. Commenting on the
Armenian situation, the military critic of The Times
SAYS the Russians have before Kars 10000 men.
Mukhtar Pasha's army at the time of the battle dld
not comprise more than 10000 m n. Among these
were fourteen battaions drawn from the garrison of
Kars. The Ottoman field army lost at least
third Of its strength in killed, wounded and
captured. Thus, after the garrison of Kars
has been completed, a few battalioDs VIII
remain available to retire upon Erzerum ana
there, united with the troops Of lsmall Pasha,
and those from PenneE form the nucleus Of new
army for the relief of Kars. Nor is it certain that
time will be given for any serious attempt to organ
ize a fresh field army. The Grand Duke Michati
can safely leave 10000 in front OF k1rs, ana WIN
the remainder press forward toward ErZcrun. ii
the accounts we receive of his movements are cor

The Opening" at Mrs. O'Meara's on yesterday
was the event of the week, for there has not been
made in Ottawa richer display Of millinery
goods than was seen at those popular rooms on
Yesterday. To begin, the arrangements and dec
orations of the room were tasty and very attrac.
tive, as were also the windows, which attracted
no little attention. The trimmed hats doubtless
were the center Of attraction, as indeed they
should be, most of them being lmportations by
Mrs. OMeara from Paris; and they are exquIs-
! lite, blue speaking in general terms) and a
buff taking our eye instantly. 1t was truly
amusing to us to hear the ladies "rave er"them,
but we could see tina. it was the spontaneous
outburst of feminine admiration, which the most
sceptlcal could see reason for The display OF
flowers was endless. Many of these, ALSO we be-
lieve, are lmportations; and the assortment is
without doubt unsurpassed in variety or shade
Many bore witness that they were lovely in the
extreme, and an agreeable surprise, having ex-
pected nothing so rich The display OF trim
mings, veilngs, silks, etc, was also very rich,
many entirely new shades not before shown in
Ottawa.
We have no idea how many ladies visited these
rooms on yesterday, though the number was
very large, but we do know that more delight
ed public never went to an opening. And thus
the wisdom of Mrs. O'Meara in delaying her day
has been demonstrated, and we know her large
circle of friends are satisfied to trust to her
judgment in all things in her line. The open
ing will continue to-day, and every lady who
sees these lines should not fail to 60 if she
wishes to see what is really handsome, and
goods that seldom are seen in Ottawa.
