By Cable to The Chicago Tribune.] Loxvox Orrice or Tur Cnicico Tnmmuse, 6 Pararavs Prace, 8toaxp, Oct. 8—10 p. m.—Considerabloproparationsare being made by tho Porte, if not for tho continuanco of hostilities during tho winter months, at least for the maintenance of itstroops in Bulgaria through the cold season, s large supplies of warm clothing have been ordered, and other preparations taken to provent tho soldiery from suffering unduly from the bittor winds that will soon bo blowing upon the Lower Danobe. On tho Russian side the arrange- monts for tho cnsuing months might scom to indicate an intention to BUSPEND ACTIVE OPERATIONS against Plovna, o8 it is said that two army corps previously employed ngainst tho carth- works of Ghazi-Ozman aro to bo detached oastward to opornfo sgainst Rustchuk, and that o considernblo dotachment of roserves is to bo dotained in Roumania. But such frosh distribution of corps may be duo to tho arrival of Buleiman to command the army of the Lom, and partly also to the ap- prehwonsion that the demonstration made by the Turkish troops from Silistria on tho northorn bank of the Danube is likely to prove more serious than was previously nnticipated. Accounts also from Gorny- Studon distinctly TOINT TO A FRESH ATTAGK upon Plevpa at an carly date, probably as soon as tho whole corpa of Gnards is as. sombled. It is gaid, too, that orders have boen issued from the Imperial headquarters for the mobilization of another army corps, but the Turkish military administration is also roportod as OROANIZING PRPAT REGIMENTS, and to hove already collectod an additional army ot Adrianople, Both sldes thus ap- pear to be putting forth their strength, but tho Turks, although their materials aro smaller, appoar to be lovylng roinforce. menta . WITH OREATED YIGOB than thelr advorsarics, whoss administrative 1noasures throughout the campaign have been cariously tentative and tardy. From somo roports it might be concluded that Gen. Todleben, after inspecting tho po- gitions at Plovna, has advised that the first serious slege operations should be under- taken against the fortreas of Rustchuk, shich forms the pivot for the operations of the army of Shumla on the Lom, and threat- ona tho left flank of the RUBSIAN ADVANCR INTO SOUTHERN DULOARIA. Yet intelligence from before Plevnn doos not warrant the belief that a serious attempt will not bo made to gain that place before the Muscovite troops aro permitted to rest in winter quarters in front of Plovna. The Roumanisng have completed their fourth parallel within fifty yards of the counterscarp of the second redoubt on ther Gravitza Ridge, and according to some views it ia oxpected that an sssault may be deliv. ored 14 A YEW DATS, , As the guards of the tronches and the Turk- ish garrison aro now within a stone's throw of each other, a collision might occur st any moment, even without any desire on the part of the allied commandors. The fact that Gen. Todleben, tho Grand Duke Nicholas, Gon. Zotoff, and Princo Charles have left the Emperor’s quarters for the camp in front of the position at Ghazd-Osman, makes the probability stronger of a speedy -attack in this direction. Some deserters from the gurrison at Plev~ na, who havo been brought into the Russian lines, report that tho state of the garrison is very unsatisfactory, and that thers aro 10,000 sick within the place. OPEBATIONS I ASIA MINOE which were commenoced by the attack on the Grand Duke Michacl last Tuesdsy have now, according to latest advices from Con- stantinople, terminated favorably for the "Turks, as Mukhtar telographs to the Porte that he has gained a victory in which the Russians lost 10,000 men. Mukhtar is re- ported now to be actively ergaged inre- victualing Kars, so that the foriress may be ready to stand a winter siego, ARMY NOTES, CORREAPONDENTS.

One thing 15 vertain, that both sdes bave displayed such gallantry that if an opportunity for a settlement should arrive they might accept it without any loss of prestige.” TOO MUCH CAVALRY. Bucitanest, Bept. 3.—Another regiment of Cavalry of the Guard passed through Bucharest to-day. It is difMleult to sce the uso of the im- mense cavalry forco the Rusalans arc sending over the Danube, na they have never properly utllized the brigades already in Bulgaria, In Roumclis bay Is very hard to obtain, as{t isin Bulgaria. It will be very diicnlt, thercfore, to maintain the inasses of cavalry now on thelr way to the front, and, unlees tho style of war- farc s to bo very much changed, they will sce very little active service, Excepting the raids of Gen. Gourko, the cavalry bLas been ured to's very eliht extent, and Gourko's operations hud lttle permanent effect on the campalgn, aa his slight attempts to destroy rail- ways only stopped trains fora few days, Had he followed the Jamboly Jine nearly to Ad- rlanopie, and then, striking across towards Bofla, swept ui\ the valley and effectually de- stroyed both lines by twistiniz the reils as he went, aud then, coming up tho Plevna road, Joinea the Russian right wing, he wourd have made a cavalry rald something like those of the Awmerlean Civll War, where much greater dis tances were traversed through n country far better prug;rcd to realst such a tnarch than the Valley of Bofla. BERVLA. VizNNaA, 8cpty 22.—Acvurding to a telegram in the Fremdenblatt from Bucharest, great dis- satisfaction prevalls oy the Kussiun headquarters about tho postpouement of Servian. luterven. tlon, wiich, as Prince Milan announced, could not well occur betora the 10th of October.
