LATEST INTELLIGENCE. THE LOSS OF A RUSSIAN VESSEL OF THE LINE AND 826 LIVES• The heroin! o/ St. Petersburg of the Id con tains the following account, communicated by order of the Minister of Marine. of the recent la s of a vessel of the line, the Lefcet _ . -It M has ple ased Providence I should par ticipate in one of the greatest disasters that can happen at sea, and to make me a witness of the instantaneous and inexplicable loss of one of the vessels in my tleet. A few minutes have sufficed for a beautiful ship of the line, thoroughly sea worthy, to be engulfed by the waves during a tempestuous night. Not a cry of distress reached us from the scene of the disaster, although we were but four cables' length distant to windward. No one sunives to explain to us the cause of this un paralleled catastrophe. On the 28th Aug. (Sept. 9), four ships of the line, the Imperatrice Alexandra, the Vladimir, the Lefort of 84 guns, and the Pamiat Aeon, of 74 guns, which were in the port of Revel, received order' to arm and return to Croustade. Ten days afterwards the Pamiat Aeon quitted the roads, towed by a steam-frigate. The three other vessels were ready to set sail two days later ; they had water and provisions for a month, and their stowage was the same as at the end of their cruise in the preced ing year; the ',croft was thoroughly repaired at Cronstadt in 1852. I had received instructions to profit by the favourable weather to set sail, without waiting for the steam-tugs. On the 9th of Septem ber (21st) I got under sail with beautiful weather and a favourable breeze from 8.8. W., the barometer marking 29.79 English. A little later the wind freshened, and abreast of the island of &thaw we were obliged to take in two reefs in the topsails. At half-past 8, p.m., after passing the island of Hochland, the Beet was making more than eleven knots. The wind increasing, I ordered a third, and then a fourth reef, to be taken in. The barometer being at 29.13, and the weather foggy, we sailed as close as possible to the wind, endea roartng to keep our comae by short tacks, until morn ing; each time I gave the signal for the manceuvre. At halt past 11 the wind shifted to the west, at midnight to the N .W., and at four o'clock to the earth, with squalls sad snow. At daybreak we were near the island of Grand-Tutee. The Beet wis on the starboard tack, the Imperatrios Alex mkt a little to windward, and the Vladimir in the wake of the Lefart, with four reefs in her topsails. "At a drawee of five miles from Tater, we veered daring our anuhrune the Lefort appeared to no se If wishing to veer; suddenly a violent squall laid her on her side. Though her sails were let go, she hued aver so moth to larboard that we expected her meta would go, but she continued gradually to lean ore till she foundered in the short time that the Vladimir took to tack about. The keel of the Ls !xi appeared once, and was then swallowed up in the waves, " Eselusiv e of the commander and twelve *Seers, the vessel had on board 743 seamen, 33 women, and 17 children ; all perished. " This disaster took place an September 10 (221, at 23 minutes past seven a.m., at dif miles to the N.N.R. of the island of Grand-Titters, at a depth of 30 fathoms. Alter this unparalleled caltastxophe, the wind continuing to increase, we Wailed IP the fore-topsails and top-gallant mils, and afterwards the main-topsails, and decided to anchor at a depth of 31 fathoms, letting out all the cable of two anchors. Fifty-three hours afterwards the wind calmed, and the steamers arriving in the meantime, towed us to Cronstadt. Signed by the Rear-Admiral OIU I." CHLNA. The Pays has a correspondence from Macao of Await 11, which reports that, as was naturally to be expected, the Viceroy of Canton, as soon as Lord Elgin had left with his ships for Calcutta, issued a proclamation stating that be had been frightened away by the imposing attitudo of the Celestial army, " numerous ma the countless leaves of the forest." The proclamation announces the ter rible fact that a new Chinese fleet is in preparation, which will disperse all the enemy's remaining vessels. It terminates with a violent invective against all foreigners whomsoever, and an intima tion that a new tax has been imposed for the main tenance of the Celestial troops, which mast be paid within ten days under the most severe penalties. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. Craox OVA OWN CoaavirowinsT.) PARIS, WrDNRAMT Hymns°. The Emprer, dri , , en back probably by the threa tened break up of the weather, will leave the Chalons camp at two to-morrow, and is expected in Paris at The young Bet Iladj, who came to France accom panied by M. Jules Favre to solicit the pardon of his father, the Arab chief who was found guilty as an accomplice of Captain Doineau, has had an interview with the Emperor sad Empress at the camp. Yesterday Marshal Baraguay d'Hilliers was thrown from his honest the Chalons camp, but was not seriously hurt. It is now certain that the Pays was too precipitate in announcing that the resignation of the Name: cabinet had been definitively accepted by the Queen of Spain on the 3rd. The telegraphic despatch, on the authority of which the Pays acted, is traceable to a paragraph in the Clamor Puldieo, which refer ring to what was presumed to have taken place at the avail weekly cabinet council held on that day, said - it appeared indubitable " that all the ministers had resigned, that their resignation had been ac cepted, that Bravo Nlurillo had been summoned by telegraph to form a new ministry, and that the necessary royal decrees would appear in the Gazette of the 3rd. Now the Gazette of that date is to band, and contains no word on the subject of the resignation of ministers. Moreover, a despatch, dated yesterday, the 6th, is equally silent. Nevertheless the Pays of this even ing persists that "Narniez and his colleagues have thoroughly resolved to quit power and that the cabinet is in a state of dissolution ;" but it at the same time notices that private letters speak of the possibility of Narvaez having consented to form a new ministry with the concurrence of the Marquis de Pidal, Minister of Foreign Affairs. According to this story only Nocedal and Lertrandi would definitively retire. All this is, however, very vague surmise. The rum of the news is nothing more than that the ministerial crisis is still going on. The P mentions a report that Nurse. thought of reorganising the National Guard, and appealing to that force for support. This, considering Narvatz's antecedents, does not seem very likely—bat Corns dr Espana! Ifts. The Bourse has again been depressed, owing to the apprehension of a general rise in the value of money throughout Europe. It was reported that the next returns of the bank of France will show a great decrease in the stock of bullion. The Rente fell 35c. foe cash, and 40c. for account, closing at 67fr. 70c. and 67fr. lobilier fell 32fr. 60c. The railways were all lower, more tvpecially the great lines, in which a good deal of business was done. Orleans fell 10fr.; Northern, 15fr. ; Eastern, 10tr. ; Lyons, 7fr. 50c. ; Southern, 15fr.; and Western, 10fr. Grand Central was steady. The vintage is now nearly finished, and very com prehensive accounts have been received from the wine districts. The reports are unanimous that the quality of the wines of 1n57 will be very tine in deed; but it appears to be beyond doubt that the quantity which, notwithstanding the fineness of the season, was never expected to be very great, will be even less than was looked for. In the country about Paris, is Champagne, Lorraine, Aleatia, and the Sancerrois, Nantais, and Orleannais districts there is a fair average crop, and the quality is superior. But all those countries (with the exception of Cham pagne) produce only wines of a second rate cha racter, which are never in demand for exportation. In the burgundy and claret ocantriet, the quantity of grapes is not large. In the Maconnais, Beaujolais, and Cote d'Or districts, the report is a " good halt average crop." In the Gironde, the Dordogne, and the Gen, whence come the wines known se Bor.' dean: or Claret, the crop is not more than from one-third to a quarter of an average, owing to the ravages of the grape disease. In Roussillon, Languedoc, and Provence, the quantity is even less, storms having added to the devastation of the disease. It is calculated, however, that taking Prance , throughout there is a fair hell average crop, and this is more than we have had for many years. Brandy and vinegar are rising because the wine is generally so good that it will not be spared for the manufacture of those articles. THE EXPRESS, THITRSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 8, 1857: RUSSIA. A letter from Bt. Petersburg says :—" The con struction of screw steamers for transport and other services is being urged on with vigour. Not only are our building yards in fall activity, but several orders have been given to ship-builders abroad.

Gfne eskimg young rither womme a bf them was really beautiful, although she bad grown up in the jungle, without eves • tent to protect her from the fierce sun and from the cold dews of night. Her complexion wee unasually fair, her black locks were wound round her head somewhat in Grecian style; and her scanty garments —a shift and shirt—ecusely concealed tinely-rounded and almost faultless bathe. As she was suffering slightly from fever, I gore her some medicine, and aloe some syrup, she direc ting me to pour it into the hollow of her hand, while, by apply ing her mouth to her wrist. she was able to drink without allowing any to escape. Unfortunately. wheal I wee feeling the pulse of ibis Selene beauty, her bei f-Belooch, extremely ugly, black, and savage husband, made his sppearanoe, bear ing a broken-limbed goat upon his shoulders, and looking all suspicion and wrath. Ile evidently had no faith whatever in my moral character, and looked upon my medical business as a mere diabolical pretence, which it woe his duty and in terest to expose. Intruding himself upon oar tote-d-rite, he spoke in • rude andrtivoking way, which I could interpret easily without catc h the separate meaning of almost a single word. Especial yhe tried, and with mimes, to excite a laugh against me, by derisively inquiring if , ould turn hhn, or any portion of his body. white. It is dangerous in Beloothistan to let the laugh be turned against one by an angry man, though it is expedient not to be hasty in noticing good-humoured ridicule. In this case it wee tacky that I understood his ridicule; for while the servant with me was explaining. there was time to consider how ft should be met. The expedient I adopted was to pall out • knife, catch him by the arm, and teaks a slight in cision, intimating that there was nothing easier than to turn him white, only, in the first place, he would have to submit to being flayed. This rude and not very brilliant jest took amaangly, and preserved my moral supremacy. His com panions seemed highly tickled and delighted at the idea of their friend toeing hie skin. aid threw themselves on the ground, rolling about, laughing, and repeating— . Ilakullo went' to be made white Hakullo most e flayed :" Mar eyes himself seemed paralyeed at the audacity of the proposal, and turned away growling precisely ma a savage dog does from an untried foe which it is doubtful abort attacking. This did not please his friends at all, and they were so earnest on the subject, that I began to fear— the move so se he seemed so unpopular character among them—that they might tie him up, and insist on the opera tion being performed. After this he established himself be hind a bash cloee by, and consoled himself with examining and handling his matchlock in a way which showed how his thoughts were =nine ; for he aimed at me with it more than once, when be thought I woe not observing. The cord not being lighted, auto was no danger in this; but when he rose. lighted a large pipe, and took it over to his lair, I thought it expedient to speak to his affectionate friends on the subject, whereon they mid he woe a bad man, and took his gun away from him. There wee no great &Laos of the Laws of h_Lsti!al_ity mi being broken; but the possibility of the ruffian ce on the unoffendimp wife, afforded.":l7pleasing= of contemplation.
