ADDITIONAL NEWS BY THE AFRICA.
INTERESTING OXTAILS.
The New York papers brine us a mass of interest,
ing European news. Weselect the following:
K*o>l THE LOWER DASt'BE.
The Medical Wockt nscirijl g\te.t the position of
affair* on the Lower Danube. We give the most in
teresting portion, relating to Kalafat in particular:
Since the nishtof the 9th, ourontposts have been
placed in a wide semi-circle round Kalafat, from
Neeo° and Beledslii to Kornul and Anilor. The
highest station up stream is at tbelakea of Fleniun
da, whence the wounded (IST) have been brought
in for the last two days, and carried to Widdin.—
The field near Csitate, particularly between Fun
tine, Baualui, Karaule, Curtaljele and Plenatza, was
covered with dead aud wounded, so that in the
course of thirty-nix hours 374 dead and 534 wound
ed have been picked np there. The wounds are
generally severe, the snot wounds preponderating
over those caused by cuts and thrusts. On the
whole, we count since the 30th of December, above
1300 men between dead, wounded and mining.—
Only part of the headquarters has been transfer
red to Widdin. The troops have latterly fought
with the most utmost bravery, and, in many cases,
would rather be cut to pieces than surrender. So
they did at Csitate and Fantina Maelaort, near
Hkrinetz, where tho preservation of ammunition
cars pieces of ordnance, and standard*, waa at
stake. A trood many officers are native Turks,
mostly formed in the military collegea of Vienna,
Berlin, Pari*, or Constantinople, and are noble
hearted and talented men. It is therefore the more
to be resetted that the eye of the beholder meets
with instances of the barbarities of former ages.—
Amongst these ranks chiefly the hideous custom of
cuttiinroff ears and noses,"which, in spite of the
severe laws threatening the offenders, is still being
practiced by some of the irregulars, mostly Alba
nese or Arnautz. At Csitate, one of these savages
bore as it were n necklace of ears and noses, a for
feit which his soles had severely to atone for. New
troops are constantly arriving at Widdin. If the
report spread to-day be true, the five steamers from
Constantinople, are destined to navigate up the St.
George's channel, and then to turn to Matscbin and
Hirsova, so as completely to cut off the retreat ot
our enemies to Bessarabia and Moldavia. Omer
Pncba in the man to imagine and execute a similar
plan.
IMPORTANT MOVEMENT.
The London Times has an important letter irom
Vienna, showing that negotiations are going on be
tween the Russian Government and the Papal Nun
cio at Vienna, for bringing about a fusion of the
Catholic and Greek churches. The Russian Cabi
net is anxious to secure the co-operation of the
high Catholic party during the present crisis.
OPINIONS IN ENGLAND.
The Loudon Times congratulates its readers on
the identity of feeling between the English and
French Cabinets; and in view of recent events says
it is desirable that the joint action of the two Cabi
nets should be strictly observed. In regard to the
answer to the demand of the Czar for an explana
tion of the intentions with which the allied fleets
have entered the Black Sea, the Times says:
We cannot anticipate the terms of that answer,
bat as to it* spirit, there can, we apprehend, be no
doubt on the mind of any man who has watched the
steady progress of events. England and France
have nothing to explain, for there is nothing clan
destine or obscure in the act now under considera
tion. They have, on the contrary, everything to
avow, and the more precise and public their avow
al can be made, the better will it serve the cause
they have adopted. The instructions given to the
admirals ana executed by the fleets at this very
time are the answer of the allied governments. It
would be disingenuous and unworthy of two great
nations to pretend that their fleets have entered the
Black Sea for purposes compatible with strict neu
trality, or even to impose a naval armistice on the
belligerents, by restrictions equally effecting both
sides" alike. The fleets have entered the Kuxine
because the maritime Powers had long since pro
mised to the Porte their moral and material sup
port in case of necessity. The disaster of Sinope
proved that without that support even the coasts
of Asia Minor were insecure, and no reinforce
ments could be sent by aea to the Turkish force* m
Armenia. We therefore interfere to protect those
coasts, and to convey the necessary reinforce
ments; and, although no positive attack is contem
plated at this time on the territories of the Russian
empire, the Admirals are empowered and directed
to prevent the maritime communications of the
Russian arsenals.
The Times is led to the conclusion that the Czar's
affected ignorance is only a feint to gain time, or
else to give to the rupture which he has provoked a
turn apparently less unfavorable to the character
of the original assailant. Alluding to Count Or.
lofTs mission the Times speaks of that nobleman's
great influence and high rank in the Russian em
pire, as well as his modest and pacific couse, and
Says:
The choice of tuck an Envoy Extraordinary to
Vienna ft thir time i* a circunuitan-ee of considera
ble interest, and it might be regarded at evincing
less indisposition oh the pnrt of Russia to treat
t/ian vat attributed to her a short time ago. But this
miesion is n continuation of the evasive policy of
which Baron Brunow's last communication gave
the litut sism. The time is pact, however, when
such expedients as these can be practised with sue
ctws or tolerated with impunity. If the Emperor
•t Husaia is disposed to treat for peace, the pre
liminaries accepted by Turkey and recommended
by the Four Powers are before him. It is in his pow
er by a word to stop the effusion of btoud, and to
remove the impending evils of war j but if, while
b<" rejects these proposals, he endeavors to amuse
us, or to divide us by other diplomatic artifices, he
is only attempting to make us the dupes and vie.
tins of a palpable trick.
In truth, the whole tenor oi the article in the'
Timesis an expression of tha belief that the Czar
is resorting to various expedients to grin tine, da
ring which he is accumulating all hia forces for
the struggle.
THE rVCLTSG IN TMJJICX.
The opinions of those writing from France are
yery similar to (hose expressed by the English
press. The Peris correspondent of the London
Times, in the coarse o! a long letter, holds the fol
lowing language:

tions.
Vienna, Wednesday, Jan. 95, 1854.
Very tranquilizing advices have been received
from St Petershurc, ofthe 18th inst. The Czar u
reported to be inclined to accept, though condition
ally, the basis oi a project of peace. The Czar de
clines the responsibility ot declaring war. People
here think that this will secure to him die support
ofthe Gennan Powers.
Vienna, Thursday eveniner. Jan 26, 1834.
Our Constantinople correspondent write* on the
12th, that the Trebizond steamer, which reached
Constantinople on the 10th, left the sailing vessels
under Admirals Dundas and Hamelin at Sinope, and
the steamers, under Admirals Barbier de Tin an
and Lyons, advancing towards Batoum. When
the Retribution joined the fleet she reported only
five ships of the line at SebastopoL Prince Woron
zoflfs resignation has not been accepted.
Paxis, Thursday, Jan. 26,1854.
Advices from Constantinople to the lGth inst.,
state that combined fleets had made sail in the di
rection of Varna. The Russians were cruising off
Kaffa (Theodosia,) not far from the strait* which
connect the Black Bea with the Sea of Azof.
There was a report that Kars had been taken by
the Russians.
Paxis, Friday evening, Jan. 27, 1854.
It Is asserted thata great battle took place near
Kalafat on the 26th. The issue was completely in
favor ofthe Turks. It was also understood that
the Turks had re-taken two islands in the Lower
Danube.
Constantinople, Jan. 15,1854.
The Turkish convoy arrived without accident,
having disembarked troops and provisions at Ba
toum.
The Turks are about to assume the offensive
against Akhalsik andPumoni. ,
The pacific news from Persia is confirmed.
St. Petexsbubo, Jan. 19,1854.
The issue of a large amount of additional paper
money and an increase of treasury bonds, bad not
yet produced an unfavorable alteration of the rate*
of exchange, owing to the heavy exports from
Odessa.
The following dispatch had been telegraphed to a
respectable Greek house in London:
Odessa, Sunday, Jan. 22, '54.
Our port is frozen up for at least a month.
Other telegraphic account* of the 20th ult., state
that freight* had suddenly renewed their firmness,
and had avanced to 105s.
War was feared, and business had experienced a
decided check.
LONDON—THE CABINET COUNCILS.
The Cabinet Council sat three hours and a half
on Friday.
The Times city article say* the accounts from the
French provinces are bad, and several failures had
taken place at Lille and Malhouse.
The Times does not conceive that the tenor of the
late Russian note, and Orloff's mission to Vienna,
justify sanguine expectations, which may chaqae
with any event an extraordinary position is apt to
excite.
The probability is, that in failing to obtain a de
claration of neutrality, the Russsian Ministers in
Paris and London will withdraw from their respec
tive missions, unless they are again to refer to Bt.
Petersburg for fiirther orders.
With respect to Count mission, and the
possibility that It is of a pacific nature, the Times
remarks that at the present time the range of the
negotiations is very much contracted, and it is im
postible for the four Powers to entertain fresh pro
posals from St Peter*burg, which would involve
the necessity of a further reference to Constantino
ple, and a further delay of six weeks, because.prac
tically, that delay would be fatal to the cause we
have adopted.
