The nc\VR brought by the Washington
and Canada in reference to the affairs of
rhe East, in confirmatory of Iho-.impros
»ion prevailing when the Arabia left Liv.
erpool, that the orders despatched l>y the.
Sultan for n postponement of hostilities
.would arrive 100 Into to prevent military
aperntions in Asia. _ ,
Accordingly, we Icon by a telegraphic
despatch from Constantinople, of the 25th
ultimo, tltnt hostilities hnd in reality com
menced in Asia. A special steamer with
despatches from Selim Pasha reached tho
Port on the 23d tilt. Their contents wore
Ituown by vaguo rumor only.
Ft wns said that on the 20th of October,
Mastnr Boy having sent out a reconoit- j
ring party in the direction ofCloriek-Dere,
it was surprised and nttnekedon its march
fey tho Russians. Selim Pashu attracted
fey the noise of the skirmish, advanced
witA reinforcements, and encountered a
corps of fifteen thousand Russians ; an en
gagement took place : the Russians were
routed, and Selim Pasha established his
Isad quarters at Orellv, a distance of six
leagues in advance. The scene of this
encounter appears to have been near the,
fenctiast, somewhere between Butoum and
Redout (Caleb. These places are some
sixtv mrles apart ; and llio intervening
CTiuntry is very indistinctly known. The
boundary ofthc Turkish and Circassian
territories is nearly midway between Bn
mum-and Rcglout Kuleh. The retreating
Russians are between two fires—the Cir-
C 8 on onn side, and the 1 urks on
tho other. The opinions in favor ofthOj
majfltninnnco of peace and peaeenble set• •
tlcmunt of the question, were hnrdfv so
strong as at the dale of our last nccounts, ,
strit wns feared that the hostilities occur
ring both on the Danube and in Asia
would embitter the quarrel and obstruct
diplomatic action.
A letter from Vienna, of the first of (
November, in the Nuremberg Correspon
denz, states that Baron MeyendoifT had
formerly declared that the Czar will not
aoeept nnv arrangement, no matter by
tohom k should be proposed, and that the
proposals which his Majesty lately submit
ted'to the European powers, nre the last
words of peace which shall issue from his
mouth. This peremptory declaration was
ofcourso fatal to Lord Hedcliffe’s propo
sals.
Tho movements of the Russian and
Turkish forces on the Danube were envel
oped in great uncertainty. A serious en
gagement wns reported by the last stenm
to have taken place between the towns
of Knlefat and Krojown. Two thousand
-Tucks appeared at Giurjovo and fired in
tyflho town. An engagement was also
•and to have tnkerv place near Dam, where
the Turks were defeated, and retreated up
ucspntch states that Ptamß
Pasha and General Prim had a serious
■conflict, arid that the Russians retired to
wards Slntlnn. The Turks begun the
passage of the Danube on the 2d Novem
6et*, from Butschuk to Giurjovo, under a
henry cannonade from tho Russians, but
succeeded in effecting their object; so that
Jhey have crossed the river in two places.
