'Several' telegrams confirm the Tur kish occupation of Eski Saghara. J j The ' Telegraph's special from Kara burnar says the Russians lost five guns at Eski Saghara. .r.- ! A Berlin dispatch to the Pall Mall Gazette says : "The Russian Minister of War has issued orders directing the army corps not yet mobilized to furnish a division each to the fighting army, to be at once despatched to the Danube: The Russian journals deny that the Czar has sanctioned the decree calling the Landwehr to colors, because there is a law providing that the Landwehr is not to be called out until the entire army is mobilized. All hitherto done consists in preparation for the mobili zation of the Landwehr, whenever call ed out. The Daily Telegraph has a special dispatch purporting to give an account of another defeat of the Russians before Plevna on Wednesday. A Rome dispatch to the Times says the Pope continues his audiences. London, August 3. 1 he Daily News' coiresponderit sends Trom Poreden, near Plevna, a graphic account of Tues day's battle, the substantial facts of which, are as telegraphed to theUnited States yesterday. The following dos ing scenes give a vivid idea ; of the ex tent of the Russian disaster; (It will be noticed that the correspondent is with Prince Schackoskoy's command, and does not purport to give any ac count of the condition or losses of Gon eral Kiicdenor's corps.) : "And now all hope of success aty where was dead. nor did all once offer to make the best of the defeatr Prince Schackoskoy had not a man left to cover the retreat. The Turks struck without stint ; they Sad the upper hand for once, and were etermined to show "that they knew how to make the most of it. " They ad vanced in swarms through the dusk on their original first position j and captuiS ed the Russian cannons before the bat teries could be withdrawn. Turkish shells began once more to whistle oyer the ridge above Radishova, and fall into the village behind, now crammed with the wounded. The streams of wound ed wending their painful ' way over the ridge were incessant. The, badly wound' ed mostly lay where they fell. - Later in the darkness a baleful sort of Krans kentraegar swarmed over the battle field in the shape of Bashi Bazouks who spared no. ' Lingering there on the ridge till the moon rose, the staff could hear from below on the stilt "night air, cries of pain and entreaties for mercy; and the yells of blood-thirsty, fanatical triumph. It was indeed an hour to wring the sternest heart, w e stayed there to learn, if it mignt oe, wnat troops were coming out of the valley of the shadow of ? death5 below, were there indeed any at all to come. It did hot seem to. be toe case. The Turks had our range: before dark, and we could watch the flash of flames oyer against us, and the scream of the shell as it tore by us. The sound of rifle1 bullets was incessant;! and the escort and retreating wounded were struck. A detachment at length began to come straggling up, but It will give an idea ot tne disorganization 10 say mat wnen a comoany was told on to cover some what the wounded inEadishova.it had to be made up of tnen of several "regi ments. ' About 9 o'clock the' staff emit ted the' ridge, leaving it ; littered with groaning men; and moving gentlylest we should tread On the prostrate wound ed, we lost our way as we had lost our army, we could nna no rest tor tne soles of our leet, by reason of the alarms of the Bashi Bazouka swarming ; in among the scattered and retiring Kus siaps4.. , , . ,:v , . , . (. At length, at 1 o'clock in the . mom ing, having been in the ' saddle since 6 o'clock on the preyious morning, we turned into a stubble field, and making beds of the reaped grain, your corres pondent and Cossack alike rested .un der the stars; but we were not 5 even then allowed to rest. Before 4 o'clock an alarm came that the Bashi Bazouks were upon us, and we had to rouse and tramp away.
