LONDON, Tuesday Aug. %. 1877.
The correspondent of The Daily Neirs at sstoYa
telegraphs as follows The Russians have been
passing through a dangerous crisis. They had only
so many men to hold their ground in Bulgaria pend
ing The arrival of renforcemens rendered necessary
by the unexpected development of the Turkish
fighting strength. These they have dis
posed like fence around the edge OF
the larger area which they had been able
70 occupy owing to the inactivity OF
the Turks in the early stages of the
campaiqn. Dreading attacks from the right and
left on Tirnova, the Russians kept body of troops
belonging to the Eighth Corps about that town,
available to strengthen any weak position that
might be threatened.
When suleiman Pasha took the village OF Shlpka
there was thus not Russian soldier available 10
reinforce the small force holding the Pass nearer
than Trnova, forty miles away. Reinforcements
arrived in the nick of time, but the safety of the
Shipka position was an affair of minutes and II the
Turks had struck all around simultaneously either
the Shipka position must have been left to its fate
or some other section of the fence line must have
been seriously endangered. | think, however, that
the crisis is virtually past. The arrival Of reinforce
ments now flowing in in steady stream, should en-
able the Grand Duke to breathe more freely. The
telegram concludes: "There are indications that
important diplomatic matters are in progress"
Tie T;mes's Bucharest correspondent teiegIaDhs as
follows: 1t is said that the hills around Shipka are
covered with Turkish bodies, and that their loss
already has been as great as that of the Russians at

A collision almost occurred at Nikopolis between
the Russian and Boumanian forces, in consequence
of the Russian commandant having caused ROa-
mauan soldier to he foggad. The denial of
a rumOred disagreement between the Roumanian
Government and the Russian headquarters probably
indicates that the Russian headquarters have seen
that things have been carried too far and that some
sort of satisfaction must be given to the offended
feelings of the Roumanian Army.
