LONDON, Wednesday,

The Servian Government having inquired whether
Gen. Fadeyeff should receive a command, the Rus
sian Government replied in the negative. The
Timers Vienna correspondent says it may
be supposed that this rejection Of Fade
yeff's services is the consequence Of Austrian
remonstrance to Russia. Fadcyeff is very inimical
TO Austria in consequence of his well-known opinion
that the way to COnstantinope lies through Vienna.
The Timess Belgrade dispatch says the Turks are
naturally anxious to know what Seryia intends to
do and are expected shortly to send an ultmatum.
Turkish detachment from Widdn is reported to DO
going toward the Servan frontier on the Timok.
