Several, ewanatiog from apparen'ly responsible rouross, stated that the Aus trian cabinet was already in possession of an in’ax to the Cxar’s reply, and that this reply wouid b very decided terms, through the minister at Par London, Tae Vienna propositions, (90 he would s'ata, bemdes being incompatible the Emperor's dignity, oly serve to attent from the Teal qnestion at issua tetweea the Porte. and they are, UNCONDITIONALLY I gecren | To prove, noweve! treet, the Car bas ap plenipotentiary; and to Gortschakoff the Porte must ap. ply, whenever it is icclined to negotiate. Such a stp on the part of the Porte will, however, be useless, should tt act uncer the erroneous impression that the Cear wilt depart from any'of the conditions laid down by Prince Menschike7. Any plenipotentiary by the Porte must be provided wita | a firman, in which it is specified that the Porte, conal | Rusata and itself, acknowledges that it must be settled Letmeen | thote two Powers alone, The substance of this imperlous reply {a sent as authentic, both from Berlin and Vienas, and, if true, it does away with the lest hopes of peace. The Londen Times sayr, editorially :— We havo streng reasons for believing that the ceclara- tion of the Russian government, transmitted to us by our | Vienna correspondent, is authantic, and that this language, which seems to exclude the lait hope of peace, has been addressed by the st of St, Potersburg to the Austrian tcvernment. Yet the Iast propceitions, which have beew accedec,to by the Porte, wero not formaily sent from Vienna to St. Petersburg uméil the 18th instant, and would not reach thelr cestinatiem before the 10th; it is therofore imposes bie that this declaration of Rossa can \efer to that communication. Russia, however, was doadt- less s ware of the form the negotiation had assumed, for the Austrian goveromeat had caused some intimatioa to be mace to the Emperor Nicholas of the procesdings of the (cur Powers, with » view to prepare him for the acceptarc ef the propcritions when they should arrive. It is, wo suppore, to this frierdly commavication m tri, as the power to which the Emperor Nicbelas bad originally referred as bis nearest ally, that this imperious answer hes been addrosssd, From the circacimtauces jove menticned, it cannot be cor sidered as the formal wer of Russia to the protocol of the four Pow dated Jennary 13; but, if this dooument be genuias, Impossible to expreas ix stronger language the ii t disdain of the Emperor of Russia for everything wale the urited ciplomaoy of Earope bas geen laboring to effect.” Hitherto we have only had the telegraphic summary of the note of the Sublime Porte, that has been appr. by the representatives of the four Powe: d transmitted to St. Petersburg.

This disproportionate concentra ion of troops at the extreme end of euch an fmmensely long tiue 2f ops retions ean only b. explained by the fast that during the last twenty #ix years in Moldavia and Wallachia, as well es \n Servis, a new generation has growa up aader the wgia of native institutions, to which tales of the former craetiies of the Turke are little more than stories from the ‘Arabian Nights Eatertsimments’’; besides, the reli gions charscter which Rasris desires to give to the prev sept wer will pot take root here, This is the cnly explanation which can be given of the erremblege of such @ la: number of Russian troops ia thie part of the country; but it is almost incompretear- ble why the Turks, who, three or four weeks since, hal as meny troops an those above mentioned, did mot reatare beyond Radovan an¢ attack Krajova, It is passable taat | they cesired by their prudence to give the people of Ea- ropean Turkey » bigher o;icion of their military tactiss then they bad before entertained Be this ae it mey, a | hard fonght and bloody battle took place on the frui:fal que terrain which extends in w south ly tion from Radoven to Cioroin, and thence to Citale (Zstati) in the west, from that place to Pleuizia in the north, and from Pleuizza, in am easterly direstion, of action formed an oblong extending from east to ws The conflict, which began on the 6th, has continued and re jews adls to conclude what will be ite ieeue, ae itis outelde the Turkish fortification aod presente s most advantsgeoue fleld for cavalry 0; The river forms a curve around Kalafat, the for, of which extend to extent is consi’erable, and competent judges praise them: Digbly.

Between these two places lies the villege of Oracea, where the outposts so often came into sontact that a pitched battle wae generaliy expected. 1t appears, however, that the objsct of the Ru-siars was to ene the Turks from the vil- lages lying betwees Coman, Citale, and Selces, as their reeonce there was an im, t to amy greater opera- ion ageinst Kalafat, During several days bsfore the 6th, skirmishes had taken plec+ on the plain to the morth of Ui‘ale, They were prizcipally combate between the Tarkish cavalry and the Coreacks, and executed ina etyle of whish peo- ple io Earope can hardly form an adequate ides, fhe frequemt recurrence of these skirmisues caused more troops to be brought upon either side, #0 thet om the 6th, in the morning, the Russians had #600 foot, 1,200 horse, and afew solnias cf Corsasks, makiog altogether more than 6.000 men. The Turks, on the field of battle, might pumber abcat 6,000 men, ‘ At noon after a capgouade which lasted about » quar- ter of an hour, the Turkish cavalry commenced the ac- tion, and by oneo’clock the whole jeft wing of the Turks was engaged withthe right wing of their adversaries, Avout 2, a Tarkish battalion took % the ronet aad put five Russian companies to flight, three of which were al- most aonibilated, At this moment the Tarks took five or (sccord ng tosome) six guns. The Russians were repulsed, and towards three o’clock 1t seemed an if the battle was ‘tsneni. The loss was already very great cn both # the fire of the artillery had never ceaced from mmencement of the engagement. Soom alter three o’el ck, however, 8,000 fresh Russian troops, which had come in foroed marches from Radovan, appeared, and the corflict was resew After tremencoas exertions the Russians succeeded in recapturing their guos, avd in drivrg back the Tarks two Eoglieh miles ands half in the direction of Citalg, At this point ‘arka were reinforced, and, baving de snot stand, the battle coptinued until evening setic. Both armies retained the petitions they ocenpied before the batila began. Yes- the 7th, at beak of day the Rasrisnot mado anotter attempt to cislodge the Tarks from Cgtale, but after an engagement which lasted an hour and a bait, they were forced to retire. This eavgaioary ba'tle was thos withoat recuit, though the loss on either side must be €qual to that suateined at Oltentiz%.

The fact that the Emp: f Russia hes not replied to the entry f the fleets by an immediate declaration of war, is a cir- ‘aKce to be placed, for wha: itis worth, om the side of peace. Had he been entirely resolved brave the worst, it is difficult to perceive why he instructed his Ministers in London apd Paris to reply in so cautious and evasive a manner to such @ communicstion. It was evident, frm the notorious preparations made by M. de Brunow ard M de Kisseleff for their immediate departure, that they anticipate’ more peroapicny orders. On the other hand, this incident may imply no more than that the ce pee ig still enceavcring to throw the responsi- bility of @ ceclaration of war, which both sides seem anzious to avoid, on the allied Powers; and, perhaps he extertalns hopes that this assumed mcderation will re- atere tome portion of his intiaeace over the German Conrts, Im pointoftine the d.flerence will bo small, for his answer to the Vieora protoco! must ere this be on its wry, and in a few days more we shall know with certainty whether the Czar bas modified the intemtions he has already expreared, ani consented to treat on the basis of thoze preliminaries, That is now the real point in ¢ia- pote, acd, unlers an actual collision should have taken lace between the combined fiesta and Rassian ¢ Black Sea, that decision must finally set Ccubt on the question which has for so many months perplexed and agitated Europe.
