IT3S STRENGTH, ARMAZXENT, AND ORGANIZATION —HOW 1T 13 COMMANDRD. Corvespondence 1andon Timer, Buuxta, May 23.—According to the most trust- worthy information, the prescnt strength of the Turklsh Anny of the Danube, exclusive of the ro- mrerves |u courso of formation on the other side of the Balkans, amounts to 230 battaliona of infants Ty, reventy-two squadrons of horse, 300 cannon, and about B.000 fortress artlllcry and enginocrs, Ur theso, forty-five battailons are statloned at Widdio, tulrty-slx ot Rustchok, sixty-five ot Shamla, twenty-elght at Varna, and thirty-sixat Silistrln. The remajniug lwenlg battalions are divided between Nicopolla, Istova, Turta. kal, the Tlobrudscho, and varlous places of more or less lm;mmnu fu Danublan Snigaria, Now, every hattallon, on the average, riay be as- sumcd to contaln at least 750 men. The contribu- tions from Nish, it 18 trie, are considerably below this standard; bat, én tho other hand, numeroas Redif battalions have 1,000 mnon, and even more, It will, therefore, follow that the totnl number of infantry ia about 172,500, and of cavalry—reckon- ug 100 to a squadron—7,200, Accordingly, it would scom that hu\rmdv ol the Danube, includ- ing fortreas artillery und engincers, is close urvn 200,000 strong. If'we now examine the constitu. thon af tbla nm{ with a view to discover the relative numbers In {t of the varlous branches of the service, a simple arithmetical caleulation will show thal for cvery 1,000 fuot moldlers thers are two and onc-third cannon, and that the proportion between foot nnd hotse tusisted upon b{ modern military acience 18 nos obscrved. . In thls respect 1t 1v required that for every 1,000 foot soldiers there shall bo throe gnne, and tbat the cavalry must be from one-ninth to oncecicventh of the Infantry, Henco it follows that the Turkish army of the Danube s slightly deficient In artillory, and very deficlont with w!‘)el’l 1o cavaley, " The canso of this s oxclasively a want of moncy. The Tarkish Government have atill parked at Tophane mare than 400 breech-losding o Iying idle for want of horsea and borness; and there are multitudes of men woll qualied to be dragoons, but thees o no money to njoant them. It 14 truo the want of cav- alry i& partly compenssted for by tho Clrcasslans, who, 1t 1s well known, are excellent rough-riders and peculiarly ftted for lizhs service; and, in order to udd moro cohorency to thelr ranks, they ars be- ing asscmablod at Conatantinople, Adrianople, and tofla, formed into regiments, and furuleled with ofticera from tho regulararmy, Tho number of the reghnenta will be about twenty-fAve, Ilat, even supposing that these Clrcasslan” horsemen arrived in tune at tho seat of war, the Turkish cavalry angmented by them would stll] hardly be numerous enough to coinparo with the groatly preponderating lh’:r-,:lnn horee. t of the Tarkish o armament of the Tnrkish array, na is well known, I8 all that fe perfect, Tho g{eaurnnm- Lor of the Iedif battalions are provided with Martinl-llenry rifics, while the rest of the in. funtry and the Mustadz, or_milltia, fu conrse of formation, are urmed with Snlder weapons, The guns of the artillery aro mosily of the Kropp makes und tho cavalry, in additiou to ssbres, curry Winchostar_carbincs, ' Tho horsen of the latter, with the exception of the Arablau rectincnts, which are all well mounted, arc but of middling quatity, Ad regands drill aud’ (raluing, the Turkish troopy only partially snawer to the requiresients of modery tactics, and ko artillery atone seems to Lavo had a thorough coume uf ractical fustruction, isadvantages, ) owever, attendant on the tmperfect tratuing of Tho Infantry are partly made up for by the Bablical cooluess and obedience to orders displayed by the Turkish soldier, The tavaley tido budly, and ap- !n.‘.u to hisve had Nitla training, snd, were it pot hat their defictency {n driilis to sumne exteot sup- rll!d by dash and gullantry, they would be i1l adle udeed to do thelr duty. Urganization wos always one of the weak polats of the Turkish nrmx. and this defciency will make {tself severcly folt during thu present ‘war, where there lasucha waut of everything that ia indla- hensable i tactical unity and system. Until with n o fuw weeks ago there wers no divislons, no Dbrigades, no reghnents cven. Tho battallons lay scattercd avout In thulr quarters, without ofton knowing from whom they hud to receive urderry or to whow thoy sbould report their dolnvs, 1t true that, aiter the declaration of war, divisions and brigades wers furmud; but this moasure will Lo acon to have Ity practical salue when it fs consldered that troopy snd commanders can be, and, asa mattor of fact, are, changed about at the caprico of oue superior oficer; that in too Turkish army there I8 no sach thing as un oreanizod staff; omd thist the so-called diviston or brignde stofl s usually represeated {n the person merely of thy lirizadier or Qeneral of Diviston, ‘[lie moral agencics at work amoug the Turkish soldior are suchas it would bo difficult to tind moro porfectly developed In sny other European army.
