NEWS OF THE WEEK.
TIELE chief military news of the week is the evacuation of Lemberg by the Russian& and the entry of the Austrian troops, which took place at four o'clock on Tueaday afternoon. The Austrians, of course, not only claim to have scored heavily by the reoccupation of the town, which, it may be remembered, the Russians have held since September 3rd, but also assert that in the fighting outside they inflicted a very heavy defeat upon the 111.1881$111 troops. This, however, appears to be a very exaggerated account of what occurred. Though the Russians fell back, they fell back in perfectly good order, left no spoils of any kind in the city, and made the Austrians pay a heavy account in killed and wounded. The necessity for the retreat was foreseen for several days, and our allies had plenty of time to get away with their gone and other munitions. The Austrians allege, possibly with truth, that the Russian centre will now have to fall back to the line of the Vistula, or it may be even to that of the Bug.
