BRACONSFIELD'S SPBECH CRITICISED. An Ominous Silence Regarding Operations Before Plevna. [BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.) Lowpox, Nov. 11, 187%. Manni Pacha, sub-Commandant at Kars, tele- Braphs to Constantinople, under date of Octover 28, that he has recetved a letter from General Loris Melikotf asking for the surrender of the place in twenty-four hours, Upon the receipt of the com- Munication the staif and all officers down to major assembled in council and unanimously rejected the summons, and resolved to deicnd Kars to the last extremity. BATOUM AGAIN SHELLED, The Russians have recommenced a vigorous bombardment of Batoum. TURKISH LOSSES AT DEVE BOYUN. An Alexandropol special correspondent telegraphs 88 follows:—“The Ardahan co!umn joined General Heimann after the vattle of Deve Boyun. The Turks lost there 2,500 killed, wounded and prisoners, and a great part of their artillery.” ON THB TREBIZOND ROAD. Constantinople despatches deny the report that Moukhtar Pacha was wounded in the fighting near Erzeroum on Monday last. They also mention an engagement at Baiburt, which may account for Moukhtar Pacha's determination to defend Erze- rout, as Baiburt ison his shortest line of retreat to Trebizond, or it may be the Russians unsuccess- fully attempted to prevent reiniorcements going to Erzeroum. THE PROBABLE CAUSE, The latter is the most probable, as further Turk- (sh despatches reiterate the accounts of a Russian defeat in the last attack, which would be hardly Possible had not reinforcements arrived. THE MURAD CONSPIRACY. Forty-elght persons in the service of ex-Sultan Murad have been arrested in Constantinople, in consequence of the recent conspiracy. Murad and his mother remain at the Tcheragan palace, but have been warned that it might be necessary to remove them to another residence. MORE BOW-STRINGING. The Vienna Political Correspondence says there is much excitement in Constantinople. Forty of ex. Sultan Murad’s servants have been strangled because of a conspiracy to reinstate Murad on the throne, “ON HAND.” The excitement is increased by a rumor that the Prophet appeared to the Sultan, ordéring him to conclude peace. e MONTENRGRINS RENEWING THE WAR. ‘The Montenegrins have. begun the bombardment of Podgoritza,’ The place is expected to hold out, as the principal delences have lately been recon- structed. A USELESS EXCITEMENT. Le Nora, of Brussels, the organ of the Russian government, regards the speech of Lord Béacons- tieid at the Lord Mayor’s banquet in London, on Friday night, as an encouragement to Turkey to fight to the last extremity, but it does not think that the speech need cause fears of other compll- cations. SULEIMAN REPORTS A VICTORY. Suleiman Pacha telegraphs to the Turkish gov- ernment that the Russians have abandoned Opaka and Epolomaska with much booty. GENERAL EUROPEAN NEWS.
