LONDON, MONDAY, le is by degrees only that we 'hall know " the truth. the whole truth, and nothing bat the tenth," of the War in the Crimea and the Naval Campaigns in the Black Bea and the Baltic. Until that time arrives all the•' prominently concerned snit septet • cariosity on the pert of the public which, though it may be inconveniently insatiable, is sevegtheless very natural and proper, in a case which es deeply 001101111111 the hoooor of England. Hens every authentic contribution to the history of the war continues, now that the war is over, to attract almost as much attention, and to raise ea mesh dimmable, as It did during the progress of hostilities. People Seel persuaded that, however prolific and esperaband. ant the literature of the war may have been, they do tot yet know the whole truth, and that they sever will know ft anal the principal actors them selves speck out atd tell frankly their story of the events in which they took part. Gradually their Asti. nab silence will give way to their desire toasted well personally in the estimation of their country and et posterity. Already, indeed, the ice is thawing a little, and a small bet pithy pamphlet low been very egret ally prepared, and put into "private circulation; explanatory or the brief command of a diatingsshed dicer, who has hitherto preserved the most perfect eilecos—Vice-Admiral Dune DVXDAS. This document has every claim to authenticity. The Writ!r is a general (Soar of distinction, merit, and experience, who, during the period to which he 0.31180410 his narrative, was ea a visit to Admiral Domes, on board the flagship Britannia, sod who, to use his own language, " could sot fail of bsisg sequaiated with the occurrences here related, as they successively took place." Nor, we may pregame, mold the guest of Admiral DIINDAS have printed this statement of those oesurresees without the full approbation of hie friend and heat. Substantially, then, Admiral DUNDAII himself mat be coosidered to have adopted sad to be responsible for the sanative bread by the General Mose, who aim vouches for all he says by appending his Dams to the title-page of his pamphlet. "Merl mere," he saye, " might have bees added?' sad the day will come when all title aboard mystery and eseravy, ezenteed by ti. pc seat obligatioos of moddeaco, will be abandoned. Until then we mast do our best to taderstaod the ores by these eoessiosal sad partial revelatioas. There are !lure principal points la Admiral ocsamand of the Black Bea Fleet cm w►ich explanation has always been much wanted. The Arm is the pert he took in the Confereea held at Versa es the 26th of Aogost, 1864. Lard RAGLAN had, it le known, received isirrections urging in the stresgeer baggage an invasion et the Crimea and the siege of Sebas►opol; and thank Mamba. Br. AZJIAVD bed similar orders, they Tema Admiral Due DAB'S friend says, is leas striagent terms, sad left Dim a larger discretion than was left to Lord Raat:ax• 6 . The debate "at that Conference, we are teal, " was leen sod anxious." The expedition was regarded by Lord RAGLAN and Admiral DUNDAI as Muse of the most imminent bascrd," and on these grounds r—Arstr The mibd fora was not woe; iamb by ene.hati seem& the period of the year was adrenal; third, only nue-half of the Ingll4 battering train bad arri•.d. and so pert Odes French siege artillery had meshed Varna ; berth, 116E141i/eh fare was manttly onpplt•d with the metes of laid traneport, and the /French had co wield transport imitable for the con veyance of troops; Mat, then was "a total want of informadoe* m to the military strength of the sway , or of the laud robe— of fiebeidepol. All thew eseelderatiese presented thoweelves teem Wag of Admiral Dudes bat be coneldwied the qeseden se s purely military ate; sad when the resides of the Allied Gaunt' was is fauna of the espedltles, he ameeerielly stated that the Boat wee fully impend to foamy tie Smash army to, sod lend it at, whatever plat the debarks*e should be Jeterudned apes• So, with inadequate means of land transport, with only half their battering train, and with " a total want of information " on the part of the English force, the expedition sailed—Marshal ST. rtarcittn, however, we are informed, breaking faith with the English oommanders, by leaving Baitchick Bay two days in advance of them. Transports the French had Lou.; and " so crowded were the line-ottattle ships of our AM's, that, had the Russian filet at any time of the voyage quitted their harboor, the contest must have been sustained by the English ships, of which only one line of-battle ship was a steamer; not a gun could have been fired from the French linrof battle ships." The convoy amounted to several hundr.4 transports, fall of troops, without the means of defence. Admiral DONNAS kept exclaiming to his friend, " If the Russians have the spirit of mow quiton, they will now leave their harbour and try the issue." The Russian Admiral did indeed urge Materathron to be permitted to risk an engagement. But the expedition escaped that danger. Its destination was the Latch' river. Half way over, however, occurred " a remarkable incident. • A sips! was made from the French flag-chip that Marshal Br. ARNAUD, who wee too unwell to move, wish, d to roster with Lord RAGLAN and Admiral DUND4II. They repaired to the Ville de Paris in the Carsdoo. Bat, while Marshal ST. ARNAUD was too ill to move, Lord Recurs could not go into the Valle de Paris to consult with his military colleague; and when Admiral RUNDAS entered into ST. AZ NAVD4 cabin, there he found the Marshal speechless from pain. All the Marshal could do was feebly to point to a paper on the table, which the Admiral found to be unsigned, and without any reuse to show from whom it came. No conversation could be held, no explanation could be givers, so deli beration or consultation could ensue. All the Admiral could do was to read the mysterious paper. It urged that the /Catch* river wee a hazardous place for debarkation, that the English press bad disclosed the plans of the Allies to the enemy, t4t the season was too advanced for the siege, and that the Aurigae were powerful in cavalry. "From these considers. tions (concluded the paper) it was necessary to re consider the measures to be adopted." Admiral DUNDAS returned to Lord RAGLAN in the Cersdoe. He at ones asked Sae very natural question, from whom this strange document proceeded. No reply oould, of coarse, be made, and another "long and anxious debate" ensued. The result wee that Lord Recut( positively refused to abandon the expo• ditto', but agreed to reconnoitre the tweet from Espatorla to Sebastopol foe • totter point of de. barkatlo•. ♦ispy of the paper wu denisadid, bat was sot saber fluently aff oded.

In the asaatinici the allied Scots, with the transports, were at saebor—a singular 'putsch ! • rut nary at •aehor is as opea ea, oat of sight of lead, in IT asthma water. How well the troops were landed at Old Fort, the place at lut selected—bow effectively the Seat acted on the Russian reserves at the battle of the Altar aad how admirably it assisted end received the wounded, will never be forgotten. The landing brings es to the second point in Admiral DUSDaII'S rwmuand on which explanaties has been rurally thought to he necessary. Why after landing the array, did not the allied fiesta pre ceed to the estrum of the harbour of Sebastopol, and attack the live Russian Sac of-battle ships sad two frigates which had been moored outside the boom, extending from Fort Conatantins to Fort Alexander ? This has always appeared the Mat great mistake of the naval operations, and all the is given on it is the following: I. feet, tile operation bad bees disease:l by the admirals.

No doubt that consideration would have been irresistible had the allied fleets not been suffi ciently powerful both to set sea bees of operations for the allied troops on shore. sad to ►ttack the advanced division of the Russian fleet; and on thin point the Admiral's guest and friend appears to have his own mints : .

Why Admiral DUNDAR'S friend should call so Onion • Roans of dentin " suicidal " es the part of the Russian passes our comm. bunion. That it was provoking and disappointisg to the Reglish fleet we can readily imagism; indeed, at Met the Admiral would set credit the news, ud est off in the Farina to manias for himself. All, however, that he saw was the tope amid tontheada of the nukes ships funning a dotted lie•, "Thew,'' ex claims the General Officer, " this was the sar•l enter prise frustrated by • sakddal ast of the Russian." - This is hardly the ossolasion history will come to.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (MU OVI PARIS, 131711 DAT EVINIXII. It is now beyond all doubt that the Conferences will not meet to-morrow, t►e 29th. I understand that Russia is the power to which the Pays referred yesterday as having yet to send an answer on a matter of " detail" before the plenipotentiaries could proceed to work. I am told to-day that the thing alluded to is the formal consent of Russia to • compromise which it is alleged has been entered into about Bolgrad. A statement made by a Belgian journal obtains credence, although I will not credit it till the fact shall leave no room for scepticism. What is said is that the English cabi net, while sticking to their text that they will not allow Russia any compensation for giving up Bolgrad, will nevertheless consent to her having 100 square miles of territory which she was never intended to have, upon the condition that it shall not be said to be a compensation for Bolgrad. This is what Is meant by the compromise. Russia's final answer, which it is not doubted will be favourable, is ex peeted to-morrow, and in that cue the Conferences may very possibly meet on Tuesday the 30th. It they do, the protocol recording the opening will be signed on the 31st, and then the meeting will be adjourned over New Year's•day. The Nord of Brussels, however, being very probably not in possession of the latest news, only predicates that the meeting will take place in the first fortnight of January. At all events not a shadow of doubt is expressed is official circles that the Conferences will really take place almost directly, and that all parties Cr. agreed se to the issue. The Nord of Brussels affirms that within the last few days a remarkable change has taken place in the attitude of Lord Palmerston's government. It is "less irritable about the Conference, and has given wise counsels to Switzerland." This change is at tributed by the Russian agent to the fact that no alliance with Austria can be formed upon a sufficiently firm bulls to stand against the alliance of France and Russia, and also to the necessity of having some tangible result of the negotiations to show to parlia ment when it meets. The Nord says it is , ' certain" that" immediately after the Conferences the English fleet will evacuate the Black Sea and the Austrian troops the Principalities." The Nourshists de Route says:—" Within the last few days three Prussian officers in uniform have been going about in the arrondissement of Yvetot, to buy horses. On Wednesday they were at the Fauville market, where several dealers came to see them by appointment. These officers are accom panied by three interpreters. They select horses fit both for draught and saddle, and are to forward their purchase' to Prussia before the end of the month." SPAIN. MADRID, Deo 24.

The prams compromised in the affair of the re publican dub which was lately discovered, have been sent to different parts of the kingdom under the surveillance of the authorities. Letters from Rome state that the Pope has ex pressed his satisfaction at the nomination of M. Mon as Spanish representative at the court of Rome.

The Prankfori Journal of Saturday last gives the followiog news from Berne, dated on the previous day (Friday): "The Federal Council has received a proposition of arrangement from the Emperor Napoleon. " The popular enthusiasm is continually increasing. "The Swiss Confederation is organising for the defence of the national soil. " Military preparations are actively going on.

The Bourse Gazette of Berlin and the New Pew. elan Gazette announce that as they consider it a patriotic duty, in the present critical state of affeirs in Prussia, to give as little information as possible concerning the military movements of the Prussian forces, they shall abstain from touching on such ques• Lions for the present. It is mentioned i■ a letter from Stuttgard, of the 23rd, that several Prussian engineer officers had passed through that place on their way to make mili tary surveys of the country through which the Pros- Sian troops would pass in South Germany and on the Swiss frontier. It wu rumoured at Berne on the 23rd that the Baden government has given permission for the passage of the Prussian army through its territory. THE UNITED STATES. LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY. The British and North American Royal Nisi 1 steam ship Arabia, James S , one, Commander, arrived in the Mersey this forenoon, from Boston and Halifax, with the usual weekly mails from the United States and British possessions in North America, 74 passengers, and 263,939 dollars in specie. The Arabia left Boston at noon oa the 17th init., and Halifax on the afternoon of the 19th, having been detained off Halifax twelve hours by fog. Her news, therefore, is three days from New York (and via Helifsx five days), four days from Boston, and Rix days from Halifax later than that brought by the United States mail steam ship Arago, from New York to Southampton. The Arabia passed the Royal Mail steam ship Niagara, from hence, on the 26th, and the Royal Mail steam ship Asia, between Tinkle and Holy head, on the 27th inst. The Arabia was detained five hours at the bar, waiting for water. The City of Baltimore arrived at Philadelphia on the 16th inst. The Wuhington correspondent of the New York Herald up that the Secretary of the Treasury is opposed to putting sugar on the free list until some arrangement can be made with the Spanish govern ment, owing to export duty being charged by Cube, from whence the United States supply is chiefly derived. Nothing of importance had taken place in the Senate. Nine more French refugees from Cayenne had arrived at New York from Demerara. It appears that the boat of the Lyonnais, contain ing a chronometer, provisions, liquors, &c., which was picked up by the Neptune on her voyage to Liverpool, was the one which broke loose from the steamer, and drifted away before the passengers could get into it. It was inspected that an expedition to Venezuela, ander the command of General Patz, was Suing out at New York, and the authorities were keeping watch to prevent it. The New York Journal of Commerce states that in Maine the shipbuilders have wholly discontinued the construction of clippers, and now go to the oppo. sits extreme of making their etdps full and of lug. capacity. In the Supreme Court, New Tole, two of the parties, Felicite Debud and Eugene Gctlet, who were supposed to have been concerned in the late frauds upon the Northern Railway of France, were discharged by Judge Davies, upon their stipulating not to commence any action for unlawful imprison. ment. The other prisoners, Charpentier and Euro!, were detained for further pr. ceediegs in the caw. The excitement in Tennessee and Kentucky aria. iog out of the negro insurrection, is said to have neatly died out, but in the other part■ of the south it was as lively as ever. It appears to have origin ated in Texas, near the Rio Grande, three months since, and to have extended to nearly all the Southern States, advantage having been taken of the public's ailatmorbing attention to the elect tion for president. It is stated that in the whole region from Memphis, through Ciatkesville, to Daver, on the Cumberland river, the greatest alarm existed in regard to the movements of the negroee. The gaols in all the counties were crowded with the arrested blacks. The county courts bad assembled in each county, and vigilance committees and patrols had been appointed in each neighbourhood and township. Eight more negrres had been hung at Dover, making nineteen in all. No overt act had been committed, but the proof against them of in surrectionary designs was, it is said, conclusive. In the House of Representatives a resolution had been declared that any suggestions to reopen the African slave trade would subject the United States to the execration of all civilised and Christian people, and that it is inexpedient, unwise, and contrary to the settled policy of the United States to repeal the laws protecting the African. A letter was read from Governor Geary announcing the restoration of peace in Kansas. Telegraphic advice. front Kansas state that sixteen of the Free-State prisoners, on trial for murder in the first degree, had been acquitted, and that nine were still on trial.
