DIARY OF THE WAR, From the Pall Mall Gazette, Sept. 21: It is stated to-day from Constantinople that Chefkot Pasha and Osman Pacha havE.. succeeded in communicating with each other, and that the revistualling of Plevna is expected to be accomplished soon. In a letter published to-day from the special correspondout of the Daily News, who described the battles before Plovus, the writer expresses a doubt whether the Rus Alans will renew their attack, and a stronger The Porte has issued an explanation of the strategical - reasons which prevented Suleiman Pasha from retaining Fort Ni- cholas, which concludes with an expression of confidence that Suleiman will shortly be master of the Shipka Paas.

He said the chief com- plaint the man had was against the late and mate, now made 1st mate, and as against the Captain, It was simply because he did not exercise proper control over his officers. If the Captain would discharge the mate, Mr Denny would, advise his clients to

The Magistrate meld Mr Dennys must ahew the grounds on which the men based thels apprehension of danger. At the same time ho alked the Captain what he thought of the man's proposition.

Captain Howes replied that the mate was a very good seaman, and it was very diffi- suit to get a good officer. There was no proof that the man had been Ill-treated, and so las he knew of the state, he was a very kind and good man to the crew. He might get out of femper 44 Himes, but he
