SKOBBLEFF. Storming and Reeapture of the Lovtcha Redoubt. FEELING THE BATTLE PULSE The Young Russian Commander with the Charmed Life, HOW HEROES DIE, Terrible Scenes of Slaughter— Forced to Fail Back, [From the London Daily News.) Lert Wixc oF tHe Russiay arn} Lovrena Roan, Sept. 12, 1877. l.was with General Zotot! when the battle of Tuesday began. It was eleven o’clock. The General and his staff were on the ridge behind Radisovo. They bad just lunched. A moderate artillery fre was going on, and the General had énformed me that the attack would begin between two and three o’clock, wnen sud- dently a lively fro was head on the skirmish line away to the left, in the direction of the Lovtcha road, followed by a heavy fusilade, which soon swept the road to the foot of the Radisovo ridge, and streamed up its crest nearly to Radigovo itself. Everybody was surprised. General Zotoft looked at bis watch and saia, “It's not yet time, What can it be??? Mounting my horse I rodé uowa the ridge be- bind Radisovo, where the fire seemed raging hottest, to try and make out what was. going on, For some Mme it was impossible to ascertain whether the Turks or Russians were attacking. The fog aud smoke were to thick that nothing couid be seen, It was only by the fusilade that the progress of the fight could be judgec. For nearly an hour General Zotoff aid not Joarn what it was or how it nad begua, As the timo for the Russian attack had been fixed for between two and three o’clock, it was soon evident that it must be a Turkish attack, and, as 1 afterward ascertained, it began in this wise:— THR BEGINNING. Skobeleff and Emeritinsky, in order to begin the attack on their side upon the redoubt, had to advance their troops on to the hill immediately tronting the redoubts in the bend of the Sofla road, It was from ‘this hill that the attack bad been made upon Skobelef! four days before, and the hill had since been aban- doned by the Turks except a few skirmishers, Skobe- Jeff advanced at eleven o’clock to \ake possession of this hil, The Turks immediately opened fire upon bim. This was the beginning of it. I have not yet been able to learn whether the Turks meant a general attack upon the whole Russian line, or whether it was a sudden movement caused by Skobelet’s advance. Atany rate the Turkish at- tack spread from the Lovtcha road over Plevna apd up the Radisovo ridge. In the middle of this ridge isa Jew billor hump. From tbis point down tothe end of the ridge, which is scarcely a mile from Plevna, the Russtans bad planted twenty-eight guns, the greater part of which were not more than one thousand or one thousand two hundred yards from the Turkish re- floubis and trenches and were a continual threat and flanger tothe Turks. It seems that they had suddenly flecided to try and carry the Radisovo ridge, and tho attack here lrected principally against the hump or hill already spoken of, opposite one of their own redoubta, . ON THE RUSSIAN LEFT Iwill now relate the events which occurred on the Russian extreme left, commanded by Priuce Meriutinsky and General Skoboleff. While the battle was raging 10 front and to the right of me it raged with no less fary ronnd the redoubts and ou the other stic of the Lovt- cha road, but up to the moment of the second repuise ot Kriloff Skobeleff had not yet made his assault, He had well prepared the ground, however, At four o'clock he had brought down twenty pieces of artillery to the spur of the ridge overlooking Plevna. Not more than a tuousand yards distant from the redoubt I saw wn immense volume of smoke rising and beard a terrible thunder, which was not moro than five or six hundred yards away on my left It was evident that Skobelefl, risking bis urtillery in this advanced position, was determined to make a des- perute effort to capture the redoubt in front of him, “fh THE POSITION ATTACKED. 1 bave already described the positions here, and now only need refer to them to make the description understood. The redoubt Skobeleff was atiacking was a double redoubt in the bend of the Lovtcha road down near Plevna. de bad advanced his troops down the slope of the mountain to within easy range, As the Turks immediately opened fire upon him from the ree doubt he returned the fire with steadiness and pre. cision, putting his men under cover as much as possi- bie, his cannon pouring a steady stream of sbell and canister into the redouvtas well. In fact, he worked bis cannon so much that several pieces’ have vecn spoiled. He had evidently determined to risk every- thing to capture this redcubt, and it Plevna were not taken it would not be bis fault. For three hours he i up this fire, and just after Krilof’s second re- pulse, the Turkish fire having somewhat relaxed, dominated by the Russian, he thought the moment had come tor making the assault. A CHARMED LIPR. He bad four regtinents of the lineand four battalions of shurpstooters, Still keeping up his murderous fire he formed under its cover two regiments, the Viadi- mirski aud the Zoozolski, in the hitie boliowat the foot of the low bili on which was built the redoubt, together with two battalions of sharpshooters, not more than 1,200 yards from the scarp. Then placing himeeif tn the best position for watching the result, he ceased fire avd ordered the adv: He ordered the assaulting party ot to fire, and they rushed forward with their guns on their shoulders, with music playing and banners flying, ard disappeared In the fog and smoke. Skobeleff 1s the ouly general who places himself near enongh to feel the puise of a bat- te. The advancing column was indistinctly seen, a dark mass in the fog and sinoke, Feeling, as it were, every throb of the battle, be saw this line begin to waver and hositate, Upon the instant he nurled for- ward a rival regiment to support, and again watched the result. This uew force carried the mass torther ‘on with its momentum; but the Turkish redouvt flamed | and smoked aud poured forth such a torrent of bulles that the line was again shaken. Skobeleff stood jn this shower of balls unbart. All bis escort wero kilied or wounded, even ‘to the little Kirghiz, who re- ceived a bulletin the shoulder. Again be saw the line hesitate and waver, apd he flung his fourth and last regiment, the Libausky, ou the glacis, Agam this new wave carried the preceding ones forward, until they were almost on the scarp; but that deadly shower of butlets poured upou them; men dropped by hun- dreds, and the resuit uli remained doubtful The ling once more wavered and hesitated. Not a moment was to be lost, if the recoubt wus to Le carried, FORWARD ONCE MORI Skobelef! had now only two battalions of rpshooters ieft, the best in his detachments. Putting himself at the bead of those, he dashed tor- ‘ward on horseback, He picked up the stragglers; he reached the wavering Juctuating mass, and gave it the iuepiravon of his own courage and fustruction, He pickea the whole mass up and carried st forward with aft eandacbeer, The whole redoubt wag a mass of flame aud smoke, from which screams, shouts and cries of agony and deflance arose, w be deep- moutbed bei of the cannon, and above all the steady. awiul crash of thet deadiy rifle fre, | Skoveleff’s sword was cut in two inthe middie, Then a monfent when jgst on the point of lea; ing the ditchy horse aud man rolled together to the ground, the horse dead or wounded, the rider untouched. He sprang to bis feet with a shout; then with a formida- bie, savage yell the whole mass of men streamed over the dite), Over the scarp and counterscarp, over the Parapet, and swept inio tue redoubs like a 'burricane, heir buyonets made short work of the lurks still re- Maining. Then a joyous cheer told that wh wi captured, and tbat at last one of the deien Plevna was inthe hands of the Russians, SKOBELEPY CARRIES THE RRDOUDT, ving seea as much as | have seen of the Turkish try tire froin bebind trenches and walls, { thought | it was beyond flesn aud biood to break ‘it, a beliot which had been strengthened by Krilofl’s ‘repuise, wuich 1 bad just witnessed, Skobeieff proved ie contrary, but at whatasacrilice! In that short rush | ota buodred yards, 3,000 men had been cit in! on the hillside “on ‘the gincis, the scarp, apd the ditch--one- fourth — of his whole | force, I believe that Skobelef looks upon such attacks upon such positions ax almost criminal, and disapproved highly the whoie plan of at on Plevna; but be believes that !f an attack is to be made at can only be done in this mannery and that, although the Joss of men may be great, it 1s better that the loss sould ve incurred and the victory won than bail ine Joss with a certainty of defea, Skobelef! seems to be the only one among the Kussian generals who has stadied the American war with protit, He knows tt by beart, and it will be seen by those who have studied the great civil war that in this assault Skobelel! tol- Jowed tho plun of the American gouerals on both sides when attempting to carry such positions, to fol- low up the useulting column With fresi troop®, with- out Waiting Jor the first column to be repulsed.

An- other brother was wounded, General Bobrovolsky, commander of sharpshooters, was kilied, Que officer was blown to pieces by the explosion of a caisson. Captain Kurapatkin, chiet of the staff, standing beside this officer, had suffered a severe contusion. beleff himself remained untouched, visited the redoubt three or four time during the day encouraging the soldiers, telling them help would soon arrive; Plevna would soon be taken; victory would soon crown 1 eflorts; telling (hem 1t was the flual decisive biow struck jor their country; for the hovor and glory of the Russian arms; and tuey ulways repliod with the same cheery shouts, while their numbers were dwindiing away by hundreds, LePT TO PATE, He again and again sent for remforcements, and aguin and again informed the Commandor-in-Ubief that the position was untenable, Ibe alternoon wore und no retnforcements came. General Levitsky, as Ihave been informed, tormally refused reintore: ments, either because he thought the position, inspite of General Skobeleil’s representations, was teua- ple, or because he bad uo rointorcemeuts two give. General Kriloff on his own re- sponsibility sent the remnant of a regiment which had attacked the redoubt, which I saw rush for- ward and then back through that [uaian corn fleld, Ot tho 2,500 there were barely 1,000 left, so it was ut- terly incapable of going ixto action that day, and even this regiment arrived tov late, General Skobelet! had left the redoubt at four o’clock to go to his ut on a wagdy hill opposite. He had been there scarcely “un hour when he was tuformed that the Turks @ again attacking the right flank on the Logghva road immediately above Plevna, He gallo} ward to see, and was met by an orderly with the news that the Turks were also al- tacking the redoubt a sixth time.

BEATEN, BUT UNTAMED. It was just after this that 1 met General Skobeleff, the first timo that day. He was in a fearful jo of excitement and fury. His uniform with mud and filth; his sword Cross of St. George twisted shoulders; bis face black with powuer ; bis eyes haggard and bloodshot, and.Ris voice quite gone. He spoke tna hoarse whisper, 1 never before suw such a picture of battle as be pre- sented, I saw him again in bis tent night, He was quite calm and collected, He sald, have done my best; 1 could do no more, My detacument is halt ae« stroyed; my regiments do noi exist; 1 have no officers lett; they sent me no reiniorcements, and I have lost three guns.” They wore three of the four guns which he placed in the redoubt upon taking it, only one of which his retreatiog troops vad been able to.carry off, “Why didthey refuse you reintorcements?”” I usked. “Who was to blam “I plame novody,’’ he replied, “It is tho will of God.” rf THE EVENING SCHCOLS. THEY WILL BE REOPENED NEXT MONDAY NIGHT—COURSE OF INSTRUCTION AND 8TA- TISTIcs. i On next Monday evening schools tor males and {e- males, under the direction of the Board of Education, will be opened throughout the city for the fall and winter term. To a very considerable portion of the community this will be an event of no little importance, as it aflords a most eligible op- portunity to many thousands of giving atten- tion to those necessary studies which, by various circumstances early in life, they were prevented from pursuing or completing in the cay schools, The matter of examination and classification of pupils desirous of adiission has been in progress every evening since the 17th inst, and will continue up tothe lst‘prox. The prigpipal of each male school is im atteodance atthe school building between the hours of seven P. M. and haif-past nine P. M., and in the female schools between-hail-past six and nine P. M. for the purpose of registration; but no persons are qualified tor admission except those whose ages or avocations are such as to prevent their attending the day schools. Applicants must be accompanied by some responsible party or must present a certifi- cate sntisiactory to the principal, attesting their identity and respectability. Children who have not attained the age of twelve years are not admissible, but it would seem thatthis rule is not rigidly eoforced in respect to girls. COURSE OF INSTRUCTION, The total enrolment at the evening schools is usu- ally about twenty thousand, and the averago atten- dance something over eight thousand, of whom one- halfare females. Fifty-five per cent are between the ages of twelys and sixteen; thirty-three per cent be- tween sixteen and twenty-one, and twelve per cent over twenty-one. The pupils are divided into primary and grammar -~ classes, and teachers, who receive an extra compensation, are tor the most part engaged in the service of tho Gepartment during the day time. pe course of in- struction 18 uniform, the elementary and practical branches receiving the greatest amount of attention.

The September trotting meeting was brought to a close yesterday at Fleetwood Park. two interesting conteste came off during the afternoon, the first be- tween horses that had never beaten 2:29, which was won by John Splan’s bay gelding Calmer, and the seo ond a race for a special purse between Rarus and Hopeful, The former won very easily, trotting three of the best consecutive beats ever made over the Fleetwood track. The first trot was for a purse of $800, for horses that had never beaten 2:29; $400 to the first, $209 to the second, $12U to the third'and $80to tho fourth horse; mile heats, best three in five, in harness, There were thirteen entries for the raco, seven of which came to the post, These were John Splan’s bay gelding Cal- mer, Jacob Somerindyke’s gray gelding W.

Calmer was a great favorite, and well he might be, for he trotted around the horses that ho had to contend against in this race and won in threo. straight heats. Modesty was second best, Wurrlor third and W. H. Allen won the fourth prize, The second trot was for a special purse of $1,000, for Rarus and Hopeful, the race tobe mile heats, best three in five, in harness. Hopeful was driven by Will- Jam McCarty, who 1s better known on the track as “Knapsack.”? John Splan drove Rarus, and he won the race quite easily with that wonderful horse. Rarus trotted the first heat in 2:173g, the second in 2:163g aud the third Ip a jog in 2:193%, Hopeful veing unable to cope with him for moro than a quarter of a mile at any time iu the race, Hopeful wax very rank, and did vot seem inclined to trot steadily, In the sec- ond heat the horses scored thirteen times betore they were started for the ‘race, and Hopeful was so “pumped out”? when the word was given that he was More than distanced in tho heat, but was allowed to start afterward to try again, Hopelul is a wondertully speedy horse, but very unsteady, while Rarus is always ready ana willing to go and stay as Jong as required.

THE PROGRAMME OF THE FIRST DAY OF THE JEROME PARK FALL MEETING—A BRILLIANT DAY'S SPORT IN PROSPECIIVE. The Fall meeting at Jerome Park, held under the Auspices of the American Jockey Club, commenc: this afternoon at haif-past ono o'clock, During the past week there have been a number of workmen at the Park renovating the stand and putting the grounds in perfect order. Sho ce.ebrated ‘Deadhead Hill” will no longer be the favored resort of the illustrious citi- zen from whom it derived its name, as the grounds have been leased by the owners of the track, and thoroughly inclosed with a substantial fence. A com- fortable stand has been erected inside the inclosure, and the admission fee will be only twenty-five cents, The voice of the pool seiler will not be heard on the bill nor on the quarter stretch this moeting, and the speculation on the different events will be attended to by the book makers and their patrons. Quitea num. ber of gentlemen have become koignts ot the pencil, 80 that thore will be no lack of layers to accommodate the backers, THE RACES, The programme for the duy’s racing is as good as has been witnessed at Jerome Park for many a day, and comprises four ovents, with a first class tield of Starters in each, The first event isa dash of three- quarters of a mile, for all ages, beaten maidens al- lowed, if four years old or less, 5 Ibs.; if five years or more, 12 lbs.

It is not often such a lot of three-quarters of a mile cracks come to- gether, and one may safely anticipate a close race, The recent brillant runuing of Rhadamanthbus at Saratoga has mado hima warm favorite, and he was backed last night at nearly even money ogaiast the Held, Vir- ginius, however, Has nearly as many admirers, and there were also numerous inquiries as to the price offered against Mary, Explosion, Cuba and Yorkshire Lass. THE JEROME STAKES, ‘The big three-year-old event is second on the pro- gramme, and there will probably be nine starters over the two mile course. From what could be ascertained yestordsy atthe Park the fleld will comprise Bazil, Bombast, Susquehanna, Major Barker, St. James, Frederick the Great, Bushwhacker, Rifle and Loiterer, Mr, Lorillard’s pair are immense favorites and coupled together were backed at 2 to 1 over the field.

Mr. Pierre Lorillard’s representatives in the Jerome Stakes were tn great deimand—so much £0 that before the close even above money could vot ve bad against Basil, and only 3 to 2 wpe offered against Bombast, Considorable money was pat on F ‘ick the Great at 7 and 8 to 1, and finally the knights of the pencil would not more than 5to1, Knadamantbus was an tinmense favorito for the three-quarter of » mile dash; and, elthough some layers put out somemoncy at 2 to 1, they closea w offering nothing better than even, The two-year- olds were all preley well backed, and in the bandicap the black colt Virginius appeured to be the favorite, but at times Barricade wag most in demand. ‘The following prices were taken and offered during Jast eveuing:.
