The principal points to be definitively arranged are, the radius of the fortress of Belgrade, the in demnities to be paid to the Turkish inhabitants who have suffered damage during the late disorders, the strength of the Turkish garrison in the fortress, and the number of men to which the national militia of Beryls, is to be confined.

The patent slips on the opposite bank of the Tagus are rapidly approaching completion. A company has been formed in Lisbon to take charge of the enterprise, and there is every probability that it will be prosperous, for money will not be wanting. A patent slip has always been a serious deficiency in the Tagus, and although the Portu guese and many Englishmen who are accustomed to the usages of this port may affect to believe that heaving ships down does not strain them or do them material harm, our shipowners think otherwise and, consequently, the patent slips at Porto Brendan will not run short of business when they are ready to receive vessels. The consignees of the steamers Tartar and Man gerton have sent home a petition, numerously signed by the merchants of Lisbon, asking the British government to grant a small subsidy to these vessels for the conveyance of the mails, otherwise they cannot afford to run much longer. Lisbon is a poor place, and people in England need not to be reminded of this fact. Besides the paucity of trade, Portuguese laws and Portuguese legis lators tend to destroy what little exists, and are the greatest enemies against which the commerce of Lisbon has to contend. A line of regular steamers to England is • great convenience to the British residents in Lisbon, and its withdrawal would leave passengers and goods at the mercy of casual con veyances. Dom Fernando has, it appears, refused the crown of Greece, and his friends are glad that he has viewed the question in so sensible a light. It is said that an autograph letter to Dom Fernando from Queen Victoria was sent out in the Emerald frigate, the purport of which was the offer of the British government to use its influence to place him on the throne of Greece • but Dom Fernando has long enjoyed the symp athies of the Portuguese people, and his position here is too good to be re linquished for so questionable a monarchy as that of Greece. . i A subsc ri pt i on s on foot for erecting a monu ment to the great orator, Joe Bettvao.

The Ellora also takes out on freight a full cargo of general merchandise. The new law on the press in Austria has received the marks of the Emperor Francis Joseph, and is to bs shortly prowalassod.. The tenors bad received no intimation of their having to retreat, and had laid down to rest upon their arms for the night. The order for them to fall in was therefore supposed by many to be for • night assault upon the enemy's works, and they were not undeceived until they found themselves upon the pontoon bridges actually returning across the stream. A heavy pie of wind which blew all sound away from the rebel lines greatly facilitated the movement. Bridges were covered with earth to deaden the sound of the moving ar finery, and a dark night hid every object from view. General Franklin's grand division, occupying the extreme haft, began to move as 00011 as it was dark ; sad the right and centre of Generals Sumner and Hooker took up the line of march almost simultaneously, moving in good order, but silently, away from under the very guns of the enemy. Ali three of the crossings were used, making six bridges. No accident of consequence occurred. The troops obeyed with alacrity every order, and waited with patience their tarn to crow. The artillery and infantry alternated in moving column, very naucli.in he order in which they went into battle. Two brigades belonging to General Butter r•ifeld's corps were left to occupy Fredericksburg as advaiteed p4altsts. The Federal artillery plead on the hither bank of ths river co-operated in keeping possession of the town. The same paper of the 17th inst. says in its summary of war• news : The retreat wad evacu►tion of Fredericksburg, which were rendered necessary by the digester of Saturday, and the eacerteined strength andeMent of the enemy's forttleattoos, was • pgrihres adventure, but was conducted in safety. It may be consoling, however, to know that although the Union forms antlered a loan of some ten or twelve thousand men in this fruitless attack we the enemy's position, General Burnside did not fall too deeply into the trap Lid for him by General Lee, but retired in time to save his army from the chances of annihilation. It Is but just, perhaps, to Goers' Burnside to my that the adverse movement upon Prederieksbarg wag wet eadarisams is am aisasawtab his own judgment, but was peremptorily ordered by the mili tary authorities at Washington, who of course are aloes re apoosible for the result. It is stated upon reliable authority that the rebels sent a notification to our army oe Sunday that they intended shelling the town, and requested that our wounded should be removed. The New York journals publish very lengthy and detailed accounts of the battle of Fredericksburg from their special correspondents. The following is extracted from the letter of the correspondent of the New York Times, dated Fredericksburg, Midnight, Dec. 13: Look at the position to be stormed. There is a bare plateau of • third of • mile, which the donning party will hare to mons. In doing so they will be exposed to the fire, first, of the enemy's sharpshooters, posted behind • stone wall running along the base of the ridge of a double row of rifle pita on the rise of the crest — of the heavy batteries behind strong field works that stud the top of the hill—of a powerful infantry form now lying concealed behind those—of • plunging fire from the batteries on the lower range—of • doable enfilading fire from "cannon to right of them, ammo to left of them." Sebastopol was not half as strong. The line of battle was formed by Coach's corps (the "mod), composed of the divisions ofFreocb, Hancock, and Howard ; the left of the line abutting on Sturgia's division of Willcox'' corps (the ninth). The first advasced was French's, composed of the brigade' of Kimball, Morris, and Weber, supported by Hmicock's division, consisting of the brigades of Caldwell, Zook, end Meagher. Forming his men under cover of a small knoll is the rea r of the town, skirmishers were deployed to the left towards Hazel Dell. Sturgis supporting, at the same time moved up, and rested on a point on the railroad. The moment they exposed themselves on the railroad, forth burst the deadly hail. From the rifle-pith came the murderously aimed missiles ; from the batteries, tier above tier, on the Assess, shot limes of fire ; from t►e end. ,lading cannon distributed on the arm of • circle two miles in extent came arras showers of shot and shell. Across Use plain for • while they swept under this fatal flee. They were literally mowed down. The bursting shells wads great gaps in their ranks, but these are presently filled up by the closing up of the line. For fifteen immortal minutes at least they roman under this fiery surge. Os. ward they prow, though their ranks grow fearfully thin. They have pawed over • greater part of the interval, and have almostneehedthe base of the hill, when brigade afterbrigade of rebels ries up on the crest and pour in fresh volleys of musketry at short range. They fell back shattered sad broken, amid shouts and yells from the enemy. General French's division went into the fight six thousand strong ; late et night he told me he could count but Mims hundred. The fire of the rebel batteries was Dot the only thing from which our men had to suffer. Thinking to silence the enemy's guns, our batteries planted on the bluff on the north side of the river, embracing the 4i siege guns, some batteries of 20-pounder Parrots, and the artillery of the left and left centre, opened fire. The intervening space is between 2,700 and 3,000 yards—too great a distance to maculate on the projectiles carrying with accuracy, particularly contractors' ammunition. If shells should fall short, or take an oblique direction, and ax. plods among our troops, it would be difficult to see bow a panic could be prevented. Promptly seeing this danger General Hunt, chief of artillery, instantly de spatched orders to cease firing. It was well be did so, for immediately afterward en aide-de-ramp came galloping from General Coach from the other side of the river, beg ging that our batteries should cease, se they were actually firing into his command. While the broken column retires to its original position in the outskirts of the town to reform for a new encounter, let us see what goes on on the left. At daylight the forces comprising the left grand division of the army appeared drawn up in battle array on the broad plain below Fredericksburg and skirting the Rappa hannock.

At sunrise the skirmishers commenced moving forward—General Vinton commanding. At three o'clock Osearal Newton's wee withdrawn from the extreme of this corps, and took a position on the ex. teems right of Reynolds's command, where • it was actively employed during the remainder of the day.

Retarning to the right I found General Samar seated on the trout seat of an unyoked ambulance at the Laney-house, directly opposite Fredericksburg, at the point where the first pontoon bridge spans the stream.

" Everything depend' an Franklin's coming up on the lank." Franklin's poultice was plainly observable by the line of smoke sad is a couple of miles to our left below. He was wooing no asantr. At three o'clock an aide arrives from General (bash to my that his ((osa's) troops are advancing finely, bat that Wilcox was not keeping up.

But Franklin snood advance. He has enough to do at this moment to hold his own, for Jack son has just thrown in reinforcements, and is pushing hard to turn his left. Ifeanwhile the reserves have mot been touched. Hooker's central grand division, 50,000 fresh men, have not yet been engaged—indeed, are yet mainly on this side et the river.

They did well to let us so easily into Frederickelees, drier but half a deem guns. when they Gould have brought a hundred to bear upon us. The city drag was the rattiest teep that ever wee leel, and we have walked into It. Is it any wonder that with such a position, on the inside of an arc of a circle of batteries, " Mid upper, nether, ens surrounding fires," our troops were over and over again broken and shattered in the attempt to take it? The wonder is that such admirable pluck was shown. It le a hopeless task sow to go back over the series of blenders that have dads Nis diameter peedble ; to inquire, for Melia" who is responsible for the delaying of the pop. loon bridges ten days beyond the time promised General Burnside, thus enabling the rebel. to render their position impregnable. Enough that the inquisition will come by and bye. At the close of the battle to-night General Burnside de claed that he would renew the contest in the morning. There is, however, little probability that this will be done, or can be done. It is bluely that the mindl of generals, composed of Bwwslde, Brenner, Hooker, and Franklin, Dow meeting at this house, will shake this determbratios, as I know they are all offered to the measure. Indeed, one has oily to go over to Fredericksburg, where the limy is now huddled, and see its shattered and broken condition, regi. meets scattered, disorganised, do., to see that a renewal of the fight in the month*, or even for some time, it wholly impossible.

The general war news fa combined in the following luminary from the lino York Times of the 17th : There seems to be sow no roma to doubt that the Hanks expedition bee gone further south than North Carolina.
