TUR K E Y.  (Front the Correspondent of the Morning herald.)  Co3sra3rivort.E, .11•1.3 9.—The latest news from Kara is of the 23d ult., and of a nature to excite tile greatest anxiety. The liusidan army, under the command of the celebrated General Morarief, had not moved from its quart era at Zaire, as eight siege guns were on their way from Gumri, and until their arrival nothing will be undertaken. The Cosvaeks, in the mean w hile, had advanced on the road to Erxeroum as far as Gal Cheer, and besides cutting off the communications of oar allies, had destroyed property belonging to the Chrivtians inhabiting. the miserable villages of Tclidter. The Turks, who are 13,000 men in all, have vent off for reinforcements in all directions; and since my la•t two couriers have arrived at the Porte with despatches from Vasa Pasha and General Williams. Kars has been placed in a good state of defence, and is provisioned for 3 nionths. An officer, writing under date of the 221, says, ' The soldiers are rto fight the Russians, and there is no doubt will dieas much daring and heroism as at Silistrix.' The urn are also menaced in their positions, the .n advanced as far as Leven, which aggresmeessitated the retreat of the Turks toSenours' distant from their former head-quarst adders do not m^rit,on the return of the a-Chief, Nlustapha Pasha, from his exeurabaci, although messengers had been tent of the state of things. It will be perrapid survey that miiitarr operations in our of the enemy, and that, in the presence - meavures whatever have been same apathy exists here; and 7 exigencies of the day, active he Turks, the difficulties might General Beatson's Irregular after all. Letters re confusion at the Dardanelles, ill-treating and even murdering the inhabitants with the greatest impunity, they refuse to acknowledge the authority of their European officers, and at the lout provocation, no matter from what quarter it comes, use their pistols. They refuse to pay the villagers the price of anything they take away; and for brutal, ruffianly conduct, they are not to be surpassed by the savages of New Zealand. ' It is said that 4,000 Bashi-Bazooka are to form the effective force of this irregular cavalry corps; but unless they are conveyed to the Crimea as soon as they enlist, there does not seem to Wilt a chance of their remaining together for a fortnight anywhere in Turkey. Lieut.-Col. Prince Edward of Sane-Weimar, let battalion Grenadier Guards, who has been named aide-decamp to the commander-in-chief, arrived on Saturday, 7th inst., by the Imperador, from the seat of war. 51azar Pasha (Sir S. Lakeman) arrived by the same steamer, having obtained a leave of absence for three months.  The Duke of Newcastle is hourly expected here. On Sunday last a furious dispute, attended with bloodshed, took place between a party of Turkish gunners and some French sailors. Another affray of a most bloody. nature took place on the 7th at Beicos, between • party of Tunisians and the local police. It would appear that two of the former having been placed under arrest for some military misdemeanour, their companions rose to demand their release. A captain who was present ordered them to disperse; they, however, drew their swords, killed that officer, wounded several policemen, whilst many spectators and persons who were passing received sword-cuts and severe bruises. A Turkish colonel came op with n reinforcement, and the offenders were captured. The ringleaders, it is said, will be shot, and the (others severely.punislied. The Tunisian., in general, are a quiet set, but the miscreants who are compromised in the quarrel are Tuariks, well-known as belonging to • wild tribe inhabiting the skirts of the Desert of Sahara. They are • bad net, and unless they are kept under by the sword of justice) nothing can be done with them.
