The Turc0-Russian War.
THE BULGARIAN CAMPAIGN
PIeyna ReyictusIIed nus Re;u6arce,s


LONDON, Sept 26.-From the statement Of
a special correspondent concerning the opera
lions in the front and rear of Plevna, it seems
probable that the Turkish accounts are correct
and Plevnaswas revictualled and reinforced on
the 23d inst by 20 battalions of infantry, two
batteries of artillery, 1000 cavalry, and an i'm
mense quantity of food and ammunition. Sew
eral correspondents mention that the rainy
weather is impeding operationsr
The Rainy Season Commencing.
The state of the weather will speedily render
carriage of provisions and ammunition for any
distance an impossibility
During the past week there have been heavy
rains, and the inhabitants are of the opinion
that the autumn rains have commenced and
there will be little more weather fit for cam
paigning. There is no necessity for the reten-
ton of large force here, or at Sophia. 1t is
too late for the Russians to attempt dash on
the latter, and even could they do so the army
could scarcely force this pass if held by 5000 or
1000 men. 1t has been rendered practically i'm.
pregnable by two lines of redoubts along the
summit, and formidable works at the entrance.
The Russians not Pushing the Siege.
The Daily News correspondent in front of
Plevna says that since the day Skobeleff was
driven from the redoubts he had captured there
has been no fighting of serious consequence.
The Roumanians, however, have persisted in
making useless assaults on the second Griyica
redoubt. But Constantinople despatch, how
ever, says that Osman Pasha reports three con-
siderable engagements since the 18th, 10 all of
winch the Turks were victorious.
Osmsn Pasha's position is now believed to
be secure, and 1t is theiimpresslon at Constanti-
nople and Sophia that the Russians and Rom
manians are withdrawing gradually from their
attempts against Plevna.

He Thinks President Hayes Has Done
i More for 'he Pacification of the soutI,
Than Tilden Could.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 26 Hon. Alexander H.
Stephens, who arrived last night. speaks of
President Hayes reception at the South as
quite as enthusiastic as was ever accorded a
President in any part Of the Union, and a
grand tribute to President whose adminstra-
tion has been in accordance with the constitu-
tional principles of home rule
Mr.. Stevens gives entire support and appro-
battalion to the Presidents course and saws he
has done more for the pacficion of the country
than Tilden could have done. He also said a
further step could be made in that direction by
the appointment of representative Southern
man to ill the vacancy in the Supreme Court
and urges the name of Herschel " johnson as
one who would give almost universal satisfac-
tion at the South and be cordially endorsed by
nine-tenths of the Northern Democracy,
