TURCO-RUSSIAN WAR. 
The struggle between Russia and Turkey has 
begun. On the Mt b inst. the Czar Issued a mani¬ 
festo to his army and people, In which he ordered 
an advance across the Turkish frontier. Prior to 
to this, detachments wore moving towards the 
Danube, through Roumania. Prince Charles and 
hlB people sympathize with the Russians, and 
have not opposed their inarch. The Turkish army 
Is distributed along the Danube Irom Wldln to si- 
llstria, so that.ltcan be conveniently concentrated 
at any threatened point, and Is prepared and ex¬ 
pectant. The Sultan made a final appeal to tho 
Western Powers to enforce the stipulations of the 
treaty of Paris, whereby the Integrity of his em¬ 
pire Is guaranteed. 
The latest reports are as followsA battle has 
been fought at Baton in, a port of the Black Sou In 
Asiatic Turkey, In which the Russians were de¬ 
feated with a loss of *00. Montenegro has renewed 
hostilities. Pott, a Russian post on the Black Sea, 
has been bombarded and burned by the Turkish 
fleet, which Is stronger than the Russian. On the 
Danube, the czar’s army has reached and occu¬ 
pied Olurgevo, (opposite to tho Turkish fortress 
of Rutscbuk), Oalatz and Ismail. A convention 
has been ratified between Roumania and Russia 
by which, in effect, the former is surrendered to 
the latter, A son of Sehamyl has been assigned 
to the command at Kars, In the hope of Inciting 
a revolt In Circassia. Tue Russian army Is ad¬ 
vancing in Asia Minor. In the meantime, England 
and Austria in particular are pushing forward 
preparations of fleets and armies, which point to 
a huge conflict, involving the principal nations of 
Europe.
