The danger, however. was still great, for a shell might at any glossa penetrate the textile coverings and send the whets into the air, lipreading around destruction and death eemparel with'which the injury already done would have been as ncthing. The troops were, therefore. kept as far as possible from the scene of the firs till late in the evening, when it had so expended its fury as to sire Ices ground for apprehension. For the most perilous service which he had eco bravely and efficieutly rendered. Lientesest Hope was publicly thanked by General Straubensm and the colonel of his own regiment on Thursday meeting on parade; and I, for one of many, sincerely hope that his dar• ingly meritorious conduct will not be allowed to pass without further reward. Had the contents of th• windmill exploded, we should not sow be reckoning Our killed and wounded by tens, but by hundreds, tbr experierced engineer Soars declare that hardly s living thing in the whole Light Division could have escaped destructiou. As it is, our casualties are heavy enough. No o 6 vial umlaut of them has as yet bean made pu blic ; bat the telegraph will in all probability apprise you of the numbers long before them lines reach London. So far. however, as I can cane at any ap proximate knowledge of the figure, it risme to about eighty killed and wounded, of whom the fanner make newly a third. In the siege twin itself nine dead babes have been found, one in the adjaasst camp of the Rifles, one in that of the 7th Fusiliers, three in rte 33rd, sad (1 believe) two in the 23rd. Besides these capes of mtually dead, all the regiments now tamed, as well as the nth, have sawed considerably in wounded, being those nearest to the mese of the explosion. A large working party in the next ravine, between the camps of the first and second brigades, also shared 'heavily in the resultant injuries, nearly 30 of theca, I believe, being either killed or wounded. In the siege train eight men are still missing, and there is but too mach reams to fear that they will roman so, as arms, legs, heads, and other perinatal poor destroyed hrunanitymere *bed up la the camp of nearly every one of the sarroanding regiments after the first explosion.

To these I might add other hugeness, not a few, in which Cue escapee were hardly less marvellous. Of all the , deaths, however, that of poor Mr. Yellen, of theCoarinirsary Department, appears to have bees attended with eireinnstsoose the most painfeL This veleable and much respected Wiser wee steediag is the lard of the siege train with an artillery officer at the .moment of the French blow-up, sad was struck 41110192 at his companion's elbow by a splinter °toehold thrown from our allies' camp.

A letter to the Cologne Gmette, from the Russian frontier, dated the 22nd, says: The Russian government Is chiefly engaged in three objects—the construction of railways and of eteamen, and thesanufacture of Mica rifles; adding to these measures the enormous military levies, and the rapidity with which the organiaalion of the militia proceeds, it becomes evident that we mast not give too much credit to the rumours of negotiations which an so eonateatly bend, but rather to aoudads that Russia is preparing for • long and obstinate contest.

A SAVINGS Bann for the army in the Crimea t such an institution would probably prove the most denies counter-agent to the temptations to drunkenness to which our soldiers in the Bast are exposed. If the authorities of the Wine Guards are disposed to try the experiment, the machinery is to a great extent pro vided to their hands. The Regimental Savings Banks, established pu►suant to the Acts 6 and 6 Victoria, es* 71, and 8 and 9 Victoria, esp. 27, might easily be adapted to the regairements of the army in the Crimea. These important institutions were re commended many years ago by Sir Holman Doucsas—a gallant and sosomplished Aar, and true Mend of the soldier—at a time when he commanded oa a foreign station, where the eoldiers were largely employed on public works, and received working money in additks to their Iny. The idea was not listened to at lest; bat Sir liowann, deeply impressed with the senvistisis that the benefits and blessings which the Waking cleanse in general bad derived from Savings Banks might be extended to the earlier'', took the earliest opportusity that preeested itself, after be. became a member of Parliament, to ergo the immediate insti tution of Savings Basks in every regiment in the service. Ilse House rewired the proposal with ao clamant ; and a bill—introduced by the then Sate- tart' at *ex, now Lord Hazikiras—to °arty it fete effect, was passed in the session 1843-4. An Act was eaberquestly parsed, in 1846, to amend tbe original one. According to these Ads an aceonat of the gross amount of money received during the year ending the 6th of January ought annually to be laid before both Houma of Parliament on us before the let M April, if the Houses are then is modem the amount for the year 1864 has not yet bees lidded; bat according to a return now before es the number of depositors in the &teamster Savings Banks on the Slat of Marc,h IM3, was 11,702 (9,890 in the cavalry and infantry, and 1,812 is the Ordnance carps); and the balance due to them at that date was 146,1871. Hs. 70. The total amount of the fund for Military Savings Banks oa the Bth of January, 1864, was 188,2023. ls. 41d. This very encouraging amount of somas has been attained is spite of the most culpable neglect on the part of the military authorities. So little have the Regimental Savings Banks been at tended to, that little has been known or thought of them till now that the prevalence of a vice which endangers at any moment the existence el our army has called attention to them as a salutary cheek upon extrovsgsat and debasing expenditure in drink by the soldiers. Yet they are poodle/1y adapted to the einionstanees in which our arniqr ia the Crimea is now placed. The men have men many Om they know what to do with; they haw no tai places wherein to deposit it; except when benevolent private individuals volunteer their assistance they have no facilities for remitting it to their Mimi or families at home; end, except in drink, they have no means of spending it. Now, with the machinery of the Regimental Savings Banks already in oxidise*, nothing more I. required to =able the soldier to invest his money safely sad pro fitably than to forward to the Crimea the necessary supplies of the little books to be given to the depo sitors, and to transmit instructions to the Com mealier-in-Chief to urge upon all regimental officers deshapeetance and asonsity of making every effort to penned, their men to avail themselves of these Wed. Woos. A very slight addition to the regulation, which the Aot of 6th and 6th Victoria enjoins shell f' be depeeited in the orderly-room of each regiment Of =why and infeatry," would render the P. aisatel Banks instruments for the remittance el the `acs's wages to their families or friends. In all eit =Wm the coonniseariat chest affords to merchant' the means of making remittances to the mother cm : Ity ; the aommiesariat in the Crimea might smaredly ! spdertake the more congenial charge.of making remit. ' tames for the soldiers. • 'We are more anxious to advocate the adoption and edbusement of a good Savings Bank system for the Crisis' 'nay then to animadvert severely upon past =OW, The Regimental Savings Beaks are in feet the adopted children of Lord Hammes—l their real permit, as we have dated above holing Sir Bowman DOUGLAS. Surely his lord ship may be expected to promote the development of iastitedoes he was so instrumental I. kriadiag. No other mews eau be so pre-eminently oalookloi le limiest* and dames upon soldiers provident, tem perate, and economical habits. The Regimental Savings Banks may not only ward off an imminent danger that threatens the very existence of our army in the Crimes, but may improve the condition of the men in it throughout their respective terms of military service, and preps= them for the discharge of the duties of civil life when their terms of service expire. In one of the lest general aide= issued by the late Com reandenin-Chisf, he earnestly reminded the staff and regimental oMeers, that even while active operations in the field and the trenches are suspended by winter, they have important duties to perform. No more important duty can be conceived than that of im pressing apes their men the benefits that will result to themselves and their families from their availing themselves of the Regimental Savings Banks. The Minister of War &ad the Commanders-in-Chief at home and in the Crimea can complete and perfect the Savings Banks system for the use of our soldiers in the Bast ; bet the Incessant exhortations and persuasions of the regimental °Seers will be required to bring their men into a fitting frame of mind for turning these inatitations to good account. Under any eireametaasse oar regimental damn ought toile prompt to charge themselves with this eliesioaary teak. Upon those who are in the Crimea its discharge will be no mere than a compensation for the dipole apathy with which, at an early period of this year's sampaign, they pooh-poohed every representation made to them of the necessity for discouraging and diesidag under, indulgence in spirituous liquors on the part of the soldiers. They might have nipped the Nil In the bud : to make amends for their not having less so, it is new incumbent upon them to make every egret to annihilate the noxious fruit. Tna Civm Elgivics of th!

The Constitutions* , undertakes to eliminate the truth from the very conflicting accounts that have been circulated on the interesting subject of General Canrobert's mission to Stockholm. Although the repu tation for accuracy of all the French Government jour nals buboes grievously shaken by frequent repudia tions by the Momiteur, and by repeated declarations that the Mositur alone is the only official organ, it is not the less certain that the Government dues often nes the newspapers as instruments to promul gate political revelations. In the present instance, I have little doubt that M. Amedde de Cessna, the author of the article, speaks from good information, although he professes only to give conclusions which he has arrived at by a poems of reasoning. After the common form preface to a eemi-oflicial article— "We have neither the intention nor the means of teeing the veil which covers diplomatic secrets," he proceeds to say that the real object of General Can robert's mission suet be obvious to every reflecting mind. It has been pretended that the General was bringing back in the folds of his cloak a treaty of alliance offensive and defensive with Sweden. Those who go so fast probably do not know what an offensive and defensive treaty is, and they are certainly ignorant of what are its obligations and immediate eocsequenose. The object of inch a treaty is fighting, not at any future time, not even a month hence, but immediately. When two governments sign a treaty of this sort they Lave not only decided to march side by side against a common enemy, but they are ready to take the field the next day. Now, we have arrived at • time of the year when military operations are at an end, instead of being about to commence. We are separated some four months from the period when, unless peace should be made in the interval, the belligerent parties will recommence the struggle with renewed energy. To what end should the French government just now make • treaty effusive and defensive with Sweden P If by the obstinacy of Rusk the war should be prolonged, such a treaty will doubtless one day be made. But one must be very ignorant of the habits of diplomacy to suppose that either France or Sweden could ever , have thought of entering into such precise engage , nests u gush a treaty would infer, in the mere anti , cipation of events which possibly may not be realised. Sweden then cannot have signed a treaty of alit ' anon offensive and defensive with the Western Powers, for the excellent reason that a government never does sign snob a treaty but on the morning of the day when its army is about to march. But, on the other band, those who pretend that the Extraor dinary Ambassador of Napoleon 111. merely left Paris on a visit of courtesy, with the single object of carrying a decoration to the King of Sweden, are very far short of the truth. • • • General Can. rollert's minion had some o: her object, and in that, whatever it may have been, he has succeeded beyond all the hopes of the Western Powers. We believe that the happy effects of this success will soon be made manifest to Europe. Should the war continue dA the spring there is no doubt that the Western Powers will enlarge their sphere of action, and will &pat their energies more effectually to the quarter of the Baltic sea in which heretofore the allied fleets have merely toads some essay of their strength. It I to tw o f ers Quite simple and natural that in this view they should be taking mesons to augment the num. bee of thole Oise, sad should have thought of Sweden. It is an enormous fact that the basis d such an alliance is now established, and moreover th, success obtained by General , Canrobert at the Court of Sweden is the more precious that it has es, mired a like success at the Court of Denmark. In the course of the above article, the Comfits. tionnel, after stating that in its own opinion the con tinuation of the war is more probable than the en. elusion of a peace, says it is nevertheless bound to observe that at the present moment the King of Prussia is offeesetuement making considerable efforts to find means to reopen negotiations. Whatever may have been said to the contrary, the King is per. sonny using his influence with his sister, the Curl mother, and she is endeavouring to persuade * son to give to Europe the guarantees demands‘ It is also most certain, in spite of the contradiction of the Prussian Correspondence, that the Count Munster is actively interfering by order of his S oso ; reign in all these attempts. The Constitutionnek while expressing great doubts whether the Musco vite party at St. Petersburg is not yet too strong to yield to reason, thinks it impossible to pass over ac unworthy of notice the active and serious steps now taking by parties of so much influence to bring about a pekoe. If anything is to come of Count Manaterk mission, something must soon be known on the sub ject, for it is announced that the Prussian ambassador to the Court of the Tuileries is expected is Paris to day from Berlin, where he has waited some time expressly to know the result of Count Munster's ex.:. artioas. The Bourse has been firmer than yesterday. Rents roes 13c. for money, and 30c. for account. A t good deal of business wu done in Credit Mobility, which improved 10fr. Most of the railways it% about 2fr. 50c. higher, but Lyons and Mediterranter fell 10fr. ---- - Marshal Prince Jerome has recovered from his. slight indisposition, and yesterday evening he ps4. a visit to the King of Sardinia in the Tuileries. I learn that the prosecution against M. Alex. Du.. mas has been withdrawn. Whether as the result of conditions made with him or not I do not know, kV the fact is, he declared to-clay to some literary mei that he would not write any more in the Mousquisirs, that he intends to remain in Paris but a very .be time, in order to bring out two dramas (one at tie- Vaudeville and the other at the Porte St. Martin), and to superintend the publication of a new editios of all his works in 300 volumes, and then to travel , for several years, visiting China before he meg home. AUSTRALIA. We have received our advice., by the Kent, from Melbourne, to Sept. 14, and Adelaide, August 23. The following report on commercial affairs in Vie ) toria is from the " Melbourne Price Current," pub• fished at the office of the Argsu The approach of spring has caused a slight improvuentis demand in this market. Some parties us investing is the' expectation of a rise in price. A few orders have also bees received from the interior. The wool season being &boat Sp commence, an increased animation will probably be given by order for supplying the stations. While thew is., favourable circumstances, their effect is counteracted byr others of • more gloomy character. Just as matters, merely.' and financial, is Melbourne, were about to improve,; we hear from Betsey accounts which indicate that see,. thing like a crisis there has commenced. It spoon that I when the unfavourable reports of the state of Melteutm. reached England last year, Sydney became the fund* destination with our speculative friends in the United Liar dam, who ' it appears, must continue to ship, sad d oat neighbours are now experiencing the natural consomme of • glut, which, in proportion to their more limited niso. Ina been almost as great ea that which proved soder trans in Melbourne. One result of the pressen is flydaq: is, that goods of all descriptions, but more putieslarlr : brandy, have been sent on here by needy home, who hue drown against the shipments, which mast seconds realised, even at a sacrifice. This has seriously dived,. legitimate trade in Melbas's'. But independently of above, the prospects of a brisk spring trade are not so as in former years. Stocks are still heavy on all the • loge, and even if they were light, a brisk demand wedded in consequence arise. The great improvement to the reeds. has altogether changed the nature of our trade with ; the interior. Formerly, during the dry seams, sup. , plies for the whole year were takes up by tU r . storekeepers at the gol d fields, and by the troptattees.: . It is now found that the storekeepers get up supplies at • all seasons as they require them, and that the uptatten, r except in very remote districts, find it most 'deuterons it. punting at the towns in their neighbourhood. At times they have been able, of late, to buy flour and other soh shandies on the diggings, at a mach lees advisee ea the+ Melbourne cost than the price of carriage. A third drew stance, of leriOell importance at the present time, is the critical position of the Melbourne retrilen. We fccearly mentioned that the improved condition of the gold ielde, - the good prospects of quarts crushing, and the Tim adopted by the banks of purchasing gold on the dAie r have attracted a great portion of the population set trek of the seaport towns. This has operated with great enmity upon the retailers,and particularly on the lieented victuallers, many of whom have been ruined. Many others us pet oat of the trade, and are consequently not replenishiageW stocks. The public us have hitherto been the chief naffs ars bat in truth nearly every other branch of trade hes been overdone, and it is universally felt that stagy mere must go out of Detainees. The banks are acting tra this principle, and are restricting their accommodation. Os the pert of importers, goods are in general held firmly, sad then is no disposition to sell except for cub. They sis confident that present embarrassments are tampon'', mi that the continued large yield of gold, independent of the wool clip and promising crops, must ere long resdaldith confidence and trade, and reward their present redeem by the increased value of their Woks. With reference to future prospects, it is right to war shippers that the high prices which ruled for provisini sad candles a few months back, will probably have Wont , large shipments from Gnat Britain and the Uni ted and as the demand has greatly diminished in contett e a: of internal produetion, such prices annoyer again be wet THE GOLD MARKET. Friday Evening, Sept. 7. The price of gold daring the week has fallen from 761.9 L t• 765. 6d. to buyers, in consequence of rumoured altar tioao in exchanges, together with the small demand.
