The result Of tho engagement near Biola
Friday, according to the latest advices, was
that tho Turks wero repulsed with great
Blaughtor. Tho Russians wcro established
on range Of irregular heights on tie Bauicka
LON, barring all tho roads to Bicla. Their
right stretched towards, ii it did not roach,
the road running from Tirnova through
Popskoi to shumla, md their left was north
ward, opposite Kadikoi, whcre all tho
branches Of tho LON unite and form ono
stream. Mehenet ALI intondcd to turn tho
Russian right and force tho right ccntre by
pushing over the stream. Several attacks
weso mado. with very few men, who wero
imperfoct1y supported. Tho artillery did
not play its customary part, bnt took up
ground too distant for effective firing. Tho
attack, an ntonded demonstration, vas con.
verted into q decided onset, and the rcal nt-
tack was not delivered. Tho Ottoman In
fantry displayed their wonted bravery and
suffered considerable loss, but
TIE ENTIRE MANAGEMENT OF TEE r1our
was plainly faulty, aud, for the first time,
Me1omet ALI or his subordinates exhibited
tactical inferiority. The General was frus-
&+n} al L., .3uoorroo{oI md
to break into the Muscovite position, and
Ills failure must hsvo at leaat taught him the
enemy's strength. He lost the day
and 10 lost men, but no counter
stroke vas delivered, and the ground held by
the Turks when they started forward

sanguinasy, and useless encounter. Tho
briof Russian vereion OF the combat Is ro-
atricted to the statement TINT several assaults
wore rcpulsed. but 1t conveys tho impression, /,
that they extended FROM the right to tho
loft. Mehemet All has not yet struck the de-
cisiye blow that WINS expected from him On
the Jantra. It IN ~ be, "a an accurate andex-
perienced military critic, an eyewitness Of
