Bucnanest, June 33,—HRussian officlals aro a3 surprised as the general public at the ease with which tho crossinz of the Danube was cffected, and at the slightness of the resistance. The The Turks scemingly made up thelr minds that o passage would bo aticrapted at Turnu Magurelll. TIIS OROSEING AT BIMNITZA, 8131724, June 27.—Under the willows and tamarisks thero wero collected last nizht about 8o'clock boats and men. . At 11 o'cock thoy began to cross, Both auriug tho crossing and afterwards they suffered scriously from the fire of two batterles and from a rifle fire. One gun, standing alone, fAired with stead- Incss and preclalon, and created somo damaze, but, slthough the men suffered, the boats went and came until coough men were cullected to bold thelr own whon the morning dawned. Dragomiro(l's division of tho Eizhth Corps waa the first to cross. The Turks FIIED THB LAST LOUND a littlo afterl o'clock to<lay. On the Turkish sido the bank presents low clifls and steep decllvities, aud behind that more gradual asccuts, but always forming per- fectly defensive positions, which -were, in fact, but feebly contested. On the right of the Russlansopposite Bistova all to-day threo pattalions of Cold artillery, firing slowly, have helped to crush the opposition of the Turks. ‘Totho left of the landing-place, concealed smong tho willows, arc wore batterics, and furtherto tho Jeft still horse artillery.

Its chlef, who s to lead the sdvanced cavalry of the army, has just arrived here. Though tho Russlana have passed hero easlly, it has not been so higher up the river, ncar ‘Turnu-Magurellf,where thelr attempt has fatled. We must therefore suppose that Simoitzs will becomo the chief point of passsge for other corps than those originally destined to cross here. But as matters stand, one corps only, the Eighth, will have galned a march on the Turkish army. Long before this reaches England OTOER CORPS will be on the southiern side Interposed like o wedge between the Turkish armles at Widdin and Rustchuk, Tho Russians wisely drew a thick vel) aronnd their movement, at the last moment plactng sentries on every road, and suffering no man to pass.

The Turks, alded by a momtor and armed populatfon, offered obstinate resistance from the intrenchments and broken ground, The fighting lasted thronghout the day.
