FRENCH PAPERS. 110)1 TUX MISSAGER DES CHAMIRES, OCT. S. PARIS, ocr. s. A letter from Odessa of the 12th of September (which , is in no respect official) speaks in these terms; rr The accounts of the Bth say, that the operations before Varna were very much advanced, and a decisive affair is ex pected in a few days." The Odessa journal announces the arrival of the Emperor Nicholas before Varna, and his daily inspec- tion of the batteries erected for bombarding the walls' of so important a plum, but no official news has been received of a general attack, which private letter: pre. tend has been made, and in which the Russiansois they say, were repulsed. . We repeat it, nothing positive has been brought re stinting Varna, either by the Odessa journal or by the letters from Czemowits, which, mentioning the Em peror before Varna, speak only of the immense preps. rations making for a general engagement.

ACCOUNT OF THE OPERATIONS BEFORE VARNA TO THE 13rei SEPTEMBER. The besieging corps proceed with evident success. On the right wing of the' ine of attack the works are completed, and the mines which have been constructed for the destruction of the cottatermarp will be imme diately charged. In the night of the llth of September, the enemy' chiefly bombarded the point where the battalion of sappers of the guard were working. Yesterday we took at the point of the bayonet a redoubt which the enemy had in the middle of our works, and which interrupted' our communications. The fire of our artillery, which had combined from early is the morning, was stopped at noon, and a signal being given, 900 men of the regi tneat Stasteteli, wider the command of Capt. Behnke, Itt4ked the enemy's redoubt, without lung a shot, `mid took it. About SOO Mirka were killed inthe works, add 10'prisoaers apes. We bad one 'facer killed and' two wounded, SG p.ltem tilled or wounded. On the same day a detbeieeut of gear& and troops ot the Ilia% under tbe cesiumsed al AWljutant General Golowinp, was sent to often. the south bank of the kake After oecepliag the Heights of the peniltswi Galate s i tbataletaehasent took the road so Bourgot. without lA ling in with the enemy. The troops embarked to saps pen the operations of Goiowin were landed without L firidite oast. By these two operations we took some Pot the inelay's convoys, and a considerable number of Wile. 'The appearance of out troops in the Peninsula of Galata most have made a great impression on the iarriasia of Varna, wham situation is reported by the prisoners to.beconse daily more difficult. Since the.be stoning of the siege.the eamaybas lost 3,000 men in the fortress, without reckoning the considerable losses which he has sustained in the numerous sallies, and in the works taken by our troops. • This morning the enemy sent a detachment of 400 or 1 500 cavalry against Lieutenant-General Golowin. A few winos shot sufficed to drive them back. On allot* side, however, the enemy made a serious sally about three o'clock. He attacked us on the right side, protected by the poiots•which he still occupied, and just at the spot where our fascines were, very near io the ditches of the fortress. It was probably his intention to destroy bur works. • The action was warm, but the enemy found it japossible to attain his object, and was not only repulsed by the 13th and 14th Regimients• of Chasseurs at the point of the bayonet, but compelled to abandon his positions, which were occupied by our troops. We found in them so many dais Turks, that it was necessary to remove them befbre our troops at.' cupied them. In this sectessfel action some of our brae* men were killed. Major-General Perowakin was wodesded by a ball. • ODR&SA, Sam Is.

The bat teries of heavy artillery were erected within thirty toises of the fortress, and the works; which the Tusks had erected to cover the breach taken at the point of the bayonet. Two bastions had already been obliged to suspend their fire.

He has driven the enemy's army of 50,000 men from its en- trenched camp, on which occasion nine cannon, five pair of colours, and 2.50 prisoners, were taken liythe Russians. The courier who brought the above news affirms, that he heard at the Laseretto that since he left theattoy• Akalukh had surrendered to General Paskewitsch. FRONTIVIS OF TRANSYLVANIA, Sam 13. We hear nothing decisive from Schumla, but as the great heat, which is so unfavourable to the Russians , has abated, the revisit of the Emperor to the army will be the signal for important events. The Turkish arm y at Adrianople beComes daily more formidable, and the second point of resistance is preparing, if Schumla should fall. The siege of Shuts is proceeds slowly, Ind the gar. rison of Ghiurgevo keeps, the Ruissian corps before the place constantly on the alert.

WINDSOR CASTLE. The private apartments intended for 'his Majesty's occupation ifi the Castle are very nearly completed, but whether his Majestriakes possession of them shortly, or whether he intends waiting until St. George's Hall and the grand ball room shall bare been finished (for at present they are only bare walls), is all conjectere, although the latter is the most probable, as the proxi mity of the hall and ball room to the private apartments, while the workmen are yet actively employed there, might be found inconvenient. The new terrace, which commences at the Iltuiswick Tower, at the north east angle. and terminates at the south-east angle, in a simucircular form, eireldees about two acres of ground, and is to be laid out as a flower garden, but at present it is in a very unfinished state. This garden is directly in front of his Majesty's apartments, and the "apploach to it is from the old terrace, br a handsome Sight of descending stole - steps. Ori the left of this. and ender the terrace, lithe orangery, extending from 100. to 200 feet, and haying large Gbthic windows leek trig south into the garden. The effectof this, when "finished, will be exceedingly beautiful, and the arrange. ment such as will enable his Majesty fully to enjoy that privacy so congenial to his wishes. when riot oc cupicd with public or State .affairs. This sketch comprises the exterior of the whole of the eastern wing. 'The south wing is nearly in a finished state, with the exceptioa of the ground; but whether.upon' this a terrace is to be formed, or the old ditch, which, by order of his late Majesty, was filled up, is to be re-opened, is rut at present ascertained,— Rumour. however, speaks of the latter alteration as the most probable. In the centre of this wing, and fronting the long walk, is the principal entrance. by as archway, the largest to any castle in England. From the centre or opposite side of the quadrangle, the view through this gateway is most enchanting, the road being seen in a straight line for nearly four miles, gently des cending for about the two first miles, and the remainder ascending until it branches off and is lost in the forest. At this extreme point of the road, a colonial statue of George UI. now in execution by Mr. Westmacott, is In tended to be placed ; and the magnitude of this statue may. be judged of by the fact, that twelve of Mr. West macott's men have at one time together taken lunch in the interior of the-horse, the door through which they entered being the saddle-place. Much discussion has arisen as to the best position for effect in which to plate this statue on its intended sits. If fronting the Castle, or the reverse. it would,. at that distance, present little better than a solid mass almost without furm. The de termination, therefore. et present, is to place it with the Irma towards the oasts the only advantageous position, indeed, we think in which it can be seen from the Castle. On state occasions the approach of his Majesty towards the Castle, to hold a Council or otherwise, down this long walk, attended by bis guards, is grand and hi posing in the extreme,, and immediately on his Ma testy entering the gateway Of the Castle, the trumpet sounds, the. guards file off, and are dismissed, and his Majesty enters the state apartments to meet Isis Mi nisters, Etc., and, on the Council breaking up, his Majesty gets into his pony phaeton, which is in wait ing. and drives away as a private Gentleman. Many. esroaeous statements have gone forth respecting the, southern wing of .this magnificent building ; it has been ' called by some a new creation. and as such has uncles. Pee some rather severe criticisms, which might have been very good in their way had they been directed against a fact; bat the truth is that Mr. Wyatville, the architect, very jadiciously raking advantage of are ' tower that existed before, has added another tower W correspond, and has placed the splendid gateway intim centre between both, making the whole appearance as uniform as it is grand: this is all,of a new creation that belongs to it. The Devil Tower, at the south. west angle, where David, King of Scotland, was lodged as a prisoner, has as yet not undergone any external alteration or repair. nor indeed is it at present ascertained what form exactly it is intended to make the western wing assume. The Round Tower. or " keep," in which King John of France was confined. forms the centre of this wing ' • and between it and the Devil Tower there is a flight of stone steps, not mists than three feet wide, which can only be seen by looking down from either of these towers—a communication which was granted as a special favour to the Kings of France and Scotland, who were both prisoners in the Castle at the same time, to allow them the enjoyment of each othes's society. 'This communication, viewed from the quadrangle or from, the outside of the Castle itself. appears only as a solid wall overgrown with ivy, and has about it altogether a very venerable appearasice. The equestrian statue of Charles, which forenetly stood near the centre of the quadrangle, is ;removed to the base of the round Tower. facing the eastern wing. and it is intended to raise the Round Tower itself some 40 or SO tet above its present height. This and the New Bruns* i,k Tower, viewed from a distance, form the most conspicuous features of the Castle, and powerfully relieve what, in other respects, might be deemed a monotony. From the Eton mea dows the view is Magnificently grand : indeed, so much so, that all foreigners, as well as our own travelled countrymen, who have seen it, declare that, taking the advantages of position. the bold and makbibe grandeur of the Castle itself, and the splendid seder y with a hich it is surrounded, nothing to be compared withit exists in Europe. It is true the money that has elready been expended here is etromous, and what will yet be rte. quired to complete it most necessarily be great too; but many and loud as the complaints on this bead 'hire been reiterated both in and out of Parliament, there can be no persons of taste who have. had an opportunity of viewing the , e splendid improvements. 'however fucible they may have previously been in their condemnation, but must have' come away with eery ciiffeserit feelings upnn the iuhjett. and impressed With a degree of pride that .there will be ooe palace at biotin their country oos in be equalled in any other, and 'worthy to. be the residence of the chief of a great na tion. Raving thus somewhat briefly described the out. ward appearance of the different wings of the Castle. • we' proceed to the interior of die square or quad tingle. On entering here by the new gateway already *Wien of from the long walk, and proceeding directly. ;across the quadrangle, the Foreign Ambassadoss. the King's Ministers. &c. on days of 'state. alight horn their carriages under a splendid portico leading to the state apartilients, and over this portico them is a tower erected, in style eortespondhit.,with the rest of the building. which serves very 'Ouch to rglieve tlae loot; ,line of windows ioSt. Georges Hail and di...state apartments. On the right, and in the south east angles as the entrance to his Majesty's private apartments, and !It is here and in the north east 'eagle, the entrance to e kitchen and .other offices, that Mr. Wyatvilie 'seems to have placed the eye of his picture. as far as regards the interior of the quadrangle. At this en. trance to the King's apartments, what first strikes the eye is a projecting canopy. supported only by brackets. exceedingly. rich and elaborate in workmanship, arol over this. in bas relief, are his Majesty's arms. ex tremely sell executed by Rossi, but. as it struck as, too diminutive in sire, and by no means correspond ing in that respect with the general scale of the build ings. Under this canopy the It lel apartments are approached by a handsome but small Right of stone steps, on the landing of which are met, a pair of massive Gothic wainscot doors, having plate glass introduced, from the centre upwards. From this land. ing place a grand and beautiful staircase branches elf right and lett, until it meets again as another landing place, which is lighted from a lantern 'ceiling most tastefully executed. The Itoyal apartments are then entered in succession, and the arrangements of them for utility and convenience cannot be surpassed ; indeed, they are as much to be admired in this respect as tor - the general grandeur, beauty, and taste that be long to them. The first apartment entered from the land. ing-place, is the music -room, a sort of is regular octagon, having in one part rows of seats rising one above lino tber, for the convenience of a very full band. One side of this room Brill be delusively appropi iated for the use of his MAjestfand his immediate private friends, when disposed to be *resent; but there are various apart ments contiguous to this, from which, by throning open.the doors, the company will have the full ad vantage of the music without either seeing or being seen. The next apartments are the tares dininproom and library, both of which are 'most magnificent in their structure and general appearance, mid there is a smaller dining-room for the convenience of lesser parties. The massive Gothic projecting windows by which these rooms are lighted ate of a strikingly splen did description; these windows are all of the finest plate glass, and are so extensive in their dimensions that there is only one window tequired in each tooth ; each window contains, beside's others, four lower panes of glas of an immense size, the dimensions of each pane being five feet in height by about two feet in breadth ; each of these panes run in a groove, and slides up and down as required. to admit or ex clude air, by a handle for the att i sebed to the bot tom part of the frame. The shutters of these windows are concealed behind splendid lnekieg glasses, placed obliquely Prim the window toward the interior of the room ; these mirrors, by touchiil a" spring, fly open inwards, the shutters appear and *form their othce, and the mirrors again replace themselves in an instant. On each side of the window, in these and several others of the apartments, is a large looking-glass in a splendid frame, placed exactly opposi.e another corresponding, which produces one of the most perfect and beautiful optical illusions that can be experienced, for the spectator, by looking into either of these glasses, appears to look down .a lengthened vista, or a multiplication of glasses, each seeming to diminish in size as the distance recedes. The side tables of the dining rooms are of a most superb description; they are of rosewood, exquisitely and richly carved, and inlaid with gold. Toe chairs and sofas, whieb at 'ascot are veiled from vulgar eyes with coverings of caovas o alt ea odic (To be sootbsoe4.)
