AT TIRNOVA. At present the Russian army is penned in at Tirnova, and deprived of liberyy of action. It would go hard with tho Bul. garians in Tirvova, who aro said Intely to have hailed the Grand Duko Nicholas asa deliverer, if the Russian troops should bo withdrawn; but this consideration has not provented tho evacuation of Rouwali, whero tho population was raised in insurrection, THE ATROOTTIES, Tho Conatantinoplo correspondent of Tae Cmoaco Tninune reports that the scones of lost year aro beginning to bo repeated in Bulgaria. There are 10,000 Bulgarian rof- ugees at Adrianoplo and 6,000 at Sclvi. ‘vin: DODRUDECHA ans, It appears certain that no part of tho Dobrudscha column has been sent towards Bimnitza, Reports from that quarter doscribo tha whole body as stationary in position near ‘Irojan’s Wall, and, if they be correct, about 50,000 men, or two corps, aro isolated and almost useless for the present, From the rapid gathering of availublo battalions it may bo assumed that a grand engagement will goon bo fought, and, whon it is over, we shall have aclearor opinion of the Russian Prospects than we can have at this period of preparation, ° ARMENIA, MICHAEL'S HARD JoB, (Ly Cable to Tae Chieago Tribune} Lonvon Orrice or ‘l'nx Curcace Turmuny, No, 6 Paronave Pracy, Stranp, Aug. 14— 4a, n.—Telegrams from Armenia show that tho belligeronts ore still netivo and expect. ant, watching cach otherkconly, ard striking out here nnd there. The incursion mado by Ismail Paya into the Russian territory Is only important in so far ax it forcibly illus- trates the complete change in tho campalgn, ond shows that Gen. Tergukassoff's pro- ceedings do not pass unperceived on this war fiold. Also, an carly collision looks proba- ble, but the task before the Grand Duke Michael is not ao easy in August as it was in Juno, 3 — SPARKS, GORSECHA¥OVE'S NESIGNATION, Loxpox, Aug. 1i.—The Standard’s Vienna correspoudent telegraphs that, althouch it Is de- nied fu official quarters, it is an undoubted fact that Gortechakoll, at tho clos’ of July, tenter- ed his resiguation. {1 will nut be decided whether (t will be accepted until the Czar ar- rives at Cotrocenl, near Bucharest, a few days hence. The reason for the resiguation ls that Gortachakell promised the other Powers that thelr interests should have fult weight in a vet- tlement of the Eustern question, but finds his Juduence declining before the extreme party, No also opposes Roumaplan aud Servian co- operation, ABANDONED, ‘The Austrian Government has mado w dec- Jaratlon through its agents that, in tue present conditlon of utbiurs in the Last, the project of vocupyliyy Bosnia and Herzegovina fs abandoned, This is attributed to the numerous meetings in Muugary tu fayor of the iutegrity of the Otto- mau Eupire.

It fs said the Porte replied that the fleet could only come as the avowed ally of Turkey. 11 fs also asserted, though on doubtful author- ity, that this reply was withdrawn on the ener- ketie remonstrattce of Mr. Layard, Britleh rep- resentative at Constantinople.

A Bncharcat correspondent telegraphs: "T have written tha following as I received it,-and from the terrible accounts which fugitives con- tinually bring over tho Balkans T fear it must be only too true: July St, the day of the Rus- slan evacuation of Eskt-actira, the Turks or- dered all Christians, men, women, and children, skould be shot as they left their houses. Those who remained were burned alive. Tho order was given to burn down and destroy avery par- ticle of Chriatian property. Many leading Turk- ish merchants took part in the affalr.’* BVENRYTUING nunNED, A large number of Uashl-Bazouka patrol the Tschirpan district. This district is one of the richest fn that part of Turkey. It contains a very largo proportion of Chnstians, over thirty churches, and 600 schools and colleges, all of which hays been burnt, The destruction extended to the villages of Boghdan- Mahalesi, Ranl-Mubales!, and many othors, in all about sixty, containing from 130 to 200 fain- ies cach.

Sol- diets wero posted along the road from Eski- Saghra to Kazanllk, with orders to shoot every- body passing. THe FUGITIVES, Lonnon, Aug, 18,—A correspondent at Kara- bunar writes that appalling accounts continue to come in of the misery of fugltives from the districts devastated by the Bash!-Dazouks and Yulgarians, Thousands of women and children are homeless and peristing for want of shelter, medical attendance, aud food. Immediate holp on tho largest possible scalo is moat sorely needed, The Pasha proposca to distribute the fugitives about Constantinople, Adrlanople, and Philippopolis. The correspoudcut suggests a notion for acity of refuge on an feland near Constantinople, uuder the protcetion of a neu- trol fag and a neutral guarautce from the bel- Hgerents, cuors, Sys rotting {n the ground, and no prorision is made for the winter, A ‘THR DAZOUK, ‘The correspondent speaks favorably of tho conduct of the Turkish regulars, but scyercly blames the Government for umploytng or not controlling tho Irregulars, who commit tho worst excesses. Evon the fucitiya women and, ebildren who come for protection to the Turks have to be guarded by regular troops Jest they alould be further injured by these savages. ‘TNE DULUANIANS are bebaying much in tho same way as the Bashl-Baronts.
