(Loud cheers.) n Gen tlemen. I propose to you to drink the health of Viscount Palmerston and her Majesty's Ministers, Time toast was drunk with great cheering. Viscount PALMERSTO:7 repied —May it please your Royal Highness, my Lords, and Gentl emen : I be on r the part of my colleagues and myself, t o return to you our be-4 and sincere thanks for the honour you have done us in drinking the toast which hip Royal Hi g h ness has been kind enough to propose. and 'for the flattering manner in which you have been kind enough to receive it. I can aspure you that there is no roof ender which that toast could be more agreeable to our feelings than the roof under which we have now had the honour to have it proposed. We are assembled under the -roof of a body whose duties are intimately connected with those arrangements which form one of the most important elements of our national wealth, and which also lay the foundation for one of the moat important sources of our national strength. There is, indeed, a unity of opera tion between the Government that may have to admi nister the affairs of this country and the body which has done us the honour to receive us, which also tends to make that honour which has been conferred more agreeable to uz, for it is the function of the Trinity Corporation to pro vide pilots for those thousands of keels that plough the waves that wash our shore ; and, on the other hand, to erect those lights which warn navigators from dangers which they would otherwise have to encounter, and which point out to them the havens where safety is to be obtained. Well, gentlemen, the duty of ministers is of a,somewhat similar description. 'lt is the duty of mi nisters to guide and to enlighten, and we well know taking the example from yourselves, that properly to guide, we must, begin by enlightening. Gentlemen, we are 'bow entrusted with the command of the vessel of the state, and I am prowl to say that that noble vessel was never in better " trim," was never better formed, never hadlon board a more noble crew than at the present mo merit. It is full of men animated by the most exalted dev4tion to their duty, and d e t erm i ne d t o b ear i n the " bOttle and the breeze" with honour and safety that royal standard which floats nobly and gloriously over theit herds. (Cheers.) We have certainly up to the present moment had storms and difficulties to encounter, but I am convinced that, with the assistance of that crew which I have mentioned, those difficulties and disalters will be surmounted, and that by a " strong pull; a long pull, and-a pull altogether," we shall be enabled to bring the vessel of the state safely through and anchor her in the harbour of honourable and perma nent! peace. (Cheers.) His royal highness has been pleased to say that a government, especially in such periods as the present, ought to receive the generous confidence and support of the nation. I am bound to say that we have received that support, honourably and generously, from the country, and that the unanimous feelipg of the nation supports us in the course which we feel it our duty to pursue, and we should indeed be un worthy of that support, we should be little deserving the high position in which it has pleased her Majesty to place us, and in which we are supported by the confi dence of the parliament and by the support of the whole British liation, we should be unworthy of that confidence and support if we were not determined to exert our best enemies, and to direct the beQt energies of the country, towards obtaining that victorious result of the conflict in which we are engaged, which alone can be consistent I will not say with the honour and glory, but with the safety of the British nation. The nob!e lord resumed his seat amid much cheering. 1144. 0 SECURITY TO EMPLOYERS.

Not one of the larger 'lass can ap proach the north side of Cronstadt nearer than two and a half miles, a distance ten times too great for the heaviest shot they can throw to produce any impression on the batteries. The class of ships required is such as can carry four of Nasmyth's wrought-iron guns, now in course of formation, which are to throw shot 14 inches part of the Mamelon-hill, and directed against our ad vanced works, not only with the usual round shot, but also with a quantity of grape. This was very deceptive at first, for the loud whiz of the round shot prevented the small grape from being heard in their night, and moreover as the chief impetus was given to the shot, it flew past first, and afterwards, when all danger had appa rently gone by, came the pattering of the grape. We have had very few casualties in the trenches, and such as have occurred have happened principally from rifle balls. Orders have baen given that a certain number of marksmen, selected from the Rifle Brigade should be told off daily to act as sharpshooters in front of the ad vanced works, and that they should cease doing the ordinary duty of the trenches. During the siege opera tions the soldiers of the Rifle Brigade have not been doing this duty, for which it might have been expected they would have been more particularly employed. They have, therefore, in a great measure ceased to re tain their distinctive character, and have taken their tour of duty in the trenches on the same footing with the other line regiments. Now that our trenches are so close to the works of the enemy, a well-directed rifle fire can be brought to bear on the embrasures of their batteries with great effect. The Russians have for some time resorted to the usual expedient in the Redan and elsewhere of placing springing screens, or "'mantlets," for the protection of the gunners against our Mini 63 ; but in spite of these devices our men, placed in favourable points, by watch ing and taking advantage of favourable opportunities, can keep greatly under control the fire of the guns. Some snantlets have lately been applied to several of our foremost batteries. :'LAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGE.NO E, Now Ready, in 2 vols. post Bvo., A new dock was opened yesterday in Portsmouth dockyard, by the entrance into it, at 5 p.m., of her Ma jesty's new yacht, to be coppered.

MRS. GASCOIGNE'S NEW NOVEL. Now ready, at all the libraries. in 3 vols., Since the arrival of the fleet within two hours' steam , ing of Cronstadt the pa'ldle steamers employed in cruis ing off the mainland have daily fallen in with and cap tined several of the enemy's coasters. These vessels are, for the most part of a small class, cutter-rigged, and laden with firewood. Some few of them are of a large description freighted with hay. With one or two excep tions, the crews belonging to them, on finding they were closely pursued, have run their vessels on shore, and thereby escaped being taken prisoners. The seizure of these small vessels, although the hulls are of no particu lar value, has afforded the fleet a supply of wood, which for all ordinary purposes, is used instead of coal, where by there is a considerable saving in that important article. An important feature, which affords a strong contrast to that adopted in 1854, is to be observed during the present campaign. The too deferential respect hitherto paid to everything that could by possibility be considered as private property of the enemy is no longer to be con tinued, and no opportunity is to be lost of seizing every thing that can benefit the subjects of Russia either directly or indirectly. The coasting vessels to which I have alluded, on removal of their cargoes, are burnt to to the water's edge, and scuttled in order to sink the remains of the hulls. Among the incidents connected with the captures made by the paddle steamers during the last few days one of- an-interesting nature occurred on the evening of the 28th. The Magicienne, Capt. N. Vansittart, while cruising off Wyborg, descried close under the land three small craft, and speedily took pos session of them, placing on board a sufficient number of hands to take charge of them. From some unavoidable cause one of them got on shore, and, while the Magici enne was adopting the requisite measures for securing the prize, in which she succeeded, one of the enemy's steam-tug vessels hove in sight with three merchantmen in tow. The Magicienne immediately hoisted Russian colours, with the view of inducing her adversary to come within range of shot. The ruse for a short time appeared _ _ t t.&. , --- liac'" WESTERN RAILWAY.- Br•.`R 0 ,,- tko DA,- ..• I ...CURSION to the WEST of ENGLAND.—On ',fo r 1, , ..; tire *.t'.l, an Excursion Train will leave Paddington at tirik4, ri 4.4 ' 0 11V., calling at Weston-super-mare, Bridgewater, ‘ L. ~r j , erton- - .•nrui, Exeter, Starcross, Daw ish, Teignmouih, Ntelo"7 e, s, and Kingsbridge, and will return front rlymouth Y''ill 30, at 630 a.m. N itusirr,e 1 'DARES THERE AND BACK.

Hurst and Blackett, Publishers, successors to Henry Colburn, 13, Great Marlborough-street. An accident, 'attended with loss of life, occurred on the evening of the 3d inst., owing to the capsizing of a small boat belonging to the Pelter. On the afternoon of each. Sunday it is customary to permit those seamen in the fleet who wish to avail themselves of the indul gence to visit any of the ships. Two petty officers and a marine, serving in the Pelter, had gone on board the Magpie, where they spent the afternoon in company with their friends. On returning to the Pelter it is be lieved they were inebriated, their boat owing to mis management, was upset, and they were immersed in the water. Assistance was promptly afforded, whereby the two petty officers were picked u p, s u ff er i n g no farther inconvenience than,a good ducki ng, b u t the marine sunk and was drowned.

It was opened yesterday in his presence, and that of the dockya r d officers. It is the south inlet dock of the steamer basin, and, as docks take the name of the first ship admitted, this will be styled the "Royal Vic toria and ,Albert Dock." Her Majesty's yacht was warped in with flags at each masthead, and will be cop pered at once. She is making great progress in her in terne) equipment, and will be ready for a trial of her speed in another week. Her accommodations will be ex cellent, and the berthing of the officers a great improve ment upon the old yacht. The steam-transport Earl of Aberdeen, D. Mearns commander, .907 tons, 350-horse power, owned by the Aberdeen Steam Navigation Company, embarked yester day from Portsmouth` dockyard the undermentioPed troops for the East :—Major Lord George Beauclerk and 2 men of the 10th Hussars ; Lieu - tenant Alexander, 34 men, and 62 horses oethe 13th Light Dragoons ; En signs Hope, Colt, Browne, and Gardner, of the 7th Royal Fusiliers ; Captain Sand with, Lieutenants Brookes and Churchill, Ensigns Burgess and Grieve, and 61 men of the 46th Foot, one officer of the 50th Foot, also abent eight officers and five men belonging to other regiments, but whose embarkation is uncertain. She is expected to leave Portsmouth this day. The Black Prince steam-transport belonging to the Screw Collier Company, whose arrival at Spithead with 111 invalids from the East was mentioned yesterday, went into Portsmouth harbour yesterday morning to disembark them. They came home in the military charge of Captain Colomb, R.A., and the medical charge of Assistant Staff-Surgeon Jackson. Seven deaths occurred on the passage, four of them from choleraic disease, brought on by immoderate indul gence in fruit by the invalids on leaving the hospital. The steam-transport Cottingham, No. 121, Commander Moor, arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from the East to await further orders.

Another battery was' completed in the right attack last night, and in both attacks every arrangement is now completed for the opening of fire. The stores of shot, shell, and ammunition are enormous ; the rounds for each gun were completed some days since to 800 per gun, and the shells for each 13-inch mortar now reach the number of 300. There was an explosion of gunpowder on the railway on the evening of May the 29th, but ohly two kegs of powder and a few friction tubes were destroyed. One man was slightly injured. Captain Owec, of the Royal Engineers, who suffered amputation of a thigh, about a month since, in conse quence of a severe injury from a rifle-ball; has left camp to proceed to England. Before coming out he had been appointed and was acting as secretary of the British committee for the Paris Exhibition, and he voluntarily gave•up this post to join his corps before Sebastopol. He has been much liked by every one of his comrades and by the Sappers, the latter of whom volunteered to carry him frotn•camp to Balaklava, to prevent the jolting of a wheeled vehicle. This was accomplished, the men being in three relays, and he arrived at the port without auy fatigue from the journey. Miss Nightingale has also left, still very debilitated and suffering. A few days before her departure she had a relapse of fever, which seriously interrupted her pro gress towards convalescence. Lord Ward plaoed his yacht at her disposal. I regret to say that, although cholera has nearly dis appeared among the troops encamped before Sebastopol it has increased among the forces at Balaklava, and se veral fatal cases have daily occurred among the regi- ments of the Guards quartered in that neighbourhood. A nephew of Admit•al Boxer, a young roan, and acting as his secretary, was attacked at an early hour in the morning, and died at 1 p.m. of the same day. He had been quite well, and actively engaged the day before in assisting to arrest a fire which had broken out in one of the vessels in the harbour. Capt. King, of the 32d Regiment, who had seen considerable service ih India, has also died from cholera, after a short illness. He was staying with a brother in the Artillery near Balaklava. He came as a volunteer, and brought high testimonials to introduce him to the notice of the Commander of the Forces. The weather has continued dry and fine, but the heat is very oppressive, more especially in the plain. KAMARA, May 29. A sudden transition from cold to heat took place on Sunday. The thermometer, in the shade, rose in a few hours from 50 deg. to 72 deg. Fahrenheit ; not a breath of, wind was stirring, and the sea had scarcely a ripple on it. The temperature during the night decreased to 52 deg. The morninz was extremely fine, when sud denly came on one of the densest fogs titthe season, which continued for three hours, when a breeze sprung up from the westward and dispersed it. The, Firefly steamer is hourly expected from Dantzic with despatches for the Commander-in-Chief and the overland mail. Letters for England will be sent this evening by the Bulldog to Dantzic. THE ADVANCED SQUADRON. OFF HANGOB, Saturday Morning, May 26. Her Majesty's screw corvettes Cossack and Esk when standing in to reconnoitre Hangoe observed four vessels at anchor among the innumerable islands and shoals between Hangoe and Iverinine. They immediately got up steam, and commenced to man and arm boats. As soon as steam was up they proceeded towards the vessels. At half-past 8 a.m., the boats being manned and armed, the Cossack sent five, containing 81 men ; the Esk four, with about the same number ; in all, from 150 to 160 men and officers, under the command of the First Lieu tenant of the Cossack.

The Russian steamer continued on her course for awhile, making signals to her supposed consort. No response being made to them, for obvious reasons, she put her helm up, cut adrift tho vessels in tow, leaving them to their fate, and. although the Magicienne went in chase at full speed, effected her escape. The Magicienne, however, captured the three vessels, which were large transports laden with stone, and sunk them with their cargoes. The gun-boats of the fleet are filled with fuel and pro visions, have been supplied with chain cables seven eighths of an inch in diameter, and are ready at a mo ment's notice for active , service. According to accounts received from Revel, the garri son of that port consists of 20,000 infanrry, one portion lodged in barracks, and the other in the open country. The light cavalry, employed as scouts, are distributed in small bodies along the whole range of coast. Consider. able forces, under the command of Aide-de-Camp Gen. Siewers, are also stationed throughout the provinces of Esthonia. The Vulture paddle-steamer, Captain F. H. Glasse, sailed to the northward and westward on the morning of the 29th. At sunset she was seen steering S.W., with four prizes in tow, two of which were topsail schooners. The Magicienne was at anchor under the land, with a prize bark rigged. The Euryalus and. Majestic were ordered to prepare two captured vessels for burning. In the afternoon of the 30th, the Cossack and Esk screw steam-corvettes rejoined the fleet, having returned from cruising off the mouth of the Gulf of Finland. The Merlin came in with a schooner in tow, which she had captured the previous evening. The prize was laden with flour and rye, of about 100 tons burden, and is to he sent to Memel to be sold for the benefit of the cap tors. At sunset six of the enemy's ships were seen at anchor in the hlrhnur of Cronstadt, and a small steamer nitside of Tolboukine Point. Another of the captured T:ssels was set fire to by a boat's crew of the James Watt. _ _ _ THE MAMELON QUARRY and WHITE WORKS on Mount Saponne, recently taken by the Allied Forces, are correctly laid down in Stanford's Map of Sevastopol. 4th Edition.

The corvettes, with a boat a-head sounding, steamed slowly after the boats as far as they could with safety. About 10 a.m. the tWo nearest vessels were taken pos session ( , f. One, a schooner, grain laden, was given in charge of a midshipman and boat's crew from the Cos sack. They managed to navigate her through a narrow and intricate passage, and brought her alongside safely. The other, a fine brigantine, wood laden, was given in charge to a midshipman and boat's crew from the Esk. She struck on a sunken rock, in the same passage the schoont-r had passed through, and stuck fast. The Second Lieutenant of the Cossack was sent to get her afloat ; some part of her cargo was thrown overboard, an anchor laid out, and other means of getting her off going ac tively going on. In the meantime the other boats were pulling to the eastward to overhaul the vessels seen in that direction, and were soon hid from the ships by the islands. During these operations three semaphore stations could be seen hard at work, telegraphing what was going on, and pro bably asking for troops, as well as warning other vessels to get into places of safety. The nearest station was so close to the ships that it could have been destroyed in a few minutes, without risk of any kind, but it was not allowed SEA of ASOV.—STANFORD'S MAP of the SEA of showing the Ports, Harbours, Lighthouses, Population of the Towns, direction of the Currents, Depth, in fathows, Imports, Experts, &c.. with Plans of Anapa and Kaffa, Is this dRy pub 'shed.

Orders were received at Portsmouth dockyard yester day to prepare and render fit for immediate service the whole of the ships' boats and others capable of carrying guns or armed men, a boat expedition being wanted for the shallow waters of the Sea of Azoff. The utmost activity prevails in their equipment. The dockyard bat talion's armed launches are already pressed into this im portant service. Powerful steamers will carry out this formidable and numerous flotilla to the scene of their contemplated operations. The present increased and increasing demand for vessels and the high rates of freight which still obtain have given a great impetus to the shipbuilding trade on the Welsh coast, and a finer and larger class of vessels is being constructed. A large number of schooners and sloops have been launched. and many more laid down for building during the summer, among which are some of very large size. A fine vessel of 1,000 tons was recently floated at Newport, and generally the shipping interest has received a great impetus. The screw-steam transport Tynemonth, No. 102, ar rived at Plymouth on Tuesday, to embark land transport corps for the Crimea.

It was a very anxious time on board, while the boats were out of sight ; it could scarcely be supposed they would be allowed to work their will without opposition, so every instant might be expected the boom of guns or the crack of rifles ; to add to such feelings, one of the Esk's boats was seen returning with some Zone injured, either by the enemy or accident ; it turned out the lat ter. The sergeant of marines belonging to the Esk had, while passing from one part cf the boat to another, struck his revolver as it hung round his neck by a lan yard (cord) against some part of the boat, exploding one of the barrels ; the ball passed through his chest, shat tered the shoulder blade, and lodged under the skin of the hack.

The ceremony took place at Salford barracks, where the regiment is now ' quartered. On presenting the sword, an appropriate address was made by Quartermaster-Sergeant John B. Aide. Sergeant Lawrence, in returning thanks, said that, although he .had been 22 years in the service, and might claim a pensibn, yet, as his regiment was ordered to the Crimea, he should go out with it. The declara tion was much cheered. CREMORNE GARDENS.—The First GRAND FLOWER SHOW for the season 105 of the Royal South About 3 p.m. two dense columns of smoke were seen to arise from behind some islands about seven or eight miles to the eastward, and tb look-out reported two vessels on fire, much to the cha rin of all h an d s , know ing it must be the expect ed prig . being ; destroyed but the chagrin wai doubled when the briva , ntine first taken was seen to be on fire, and the Lieut Inant and boats' crows leaving her, more especially as she was nearly afloat, and the boats from the eastward were close to her, and would soon have had her off. However, orders must be obeyed. and signal had been made to set fire to her ! The boats were all on board about 7 o'clock, and re ported they chased three vessels—a schooner and two galliots—which ran on shore, and, as they had neither time nor means of getting them quickly off, they burnt them. When taken possession of they had been de serted ; they had no cargo. No opposition was made to the boats. Had one of the gun boats been present, all the vessels might have been gut safely off.

At 9 a.m. of the 31st, the destruction by fire of the two remaining vessels seized by the paddle steamers, one of which was a fine schooner of about 150 tons, commenced. A fresh breeze blowing at the time their timbers burnt with great rapidity, and in a few hours their hulls were scarcely above water. In the forenoon a general signal was made to get up steam and shorten in cable. By 11 o'clock the fleet was under way (the Euryalus, Amphion, Magicienne, and Merlin, being sent ahead as a squadron of observation), and proceeded in an easterly direction. They anchored at 4 p.m. in line abreast eight miles W. by N. of Tolboukine Point, from which position an excellent view of the forts on the south side of Cronstadt is afforded, the Risbank Battery, formed of solid granite, and mounting 100 guns of large calibre, being very conspicuous. Of the Russian men of-war at anchor in the harbour, six line-of-battle ships (four of them three-deckers) all ataunt, and 13 others (six of which are three-deckers) with merely their lower masts standing, together with two frigates and seven steamers, are visible to the naked eye. By aid of a tele scope, the gilded spires of the churches of St. Petersburg can be distinguished, and during sunshine have a very brilliant appearance. Shortly after the ships had anchored, Rear-Admirals R. S. Dundas and Seymour, with their respective flag captains, and Commodore the Hon. F. T. Pelham, cap tain of the fleet, embarked in the Merlin, accompanied by the Euryalus, the Amphion, the Magicienne, and the Dragon, and proceeded off Tolboukine Point, at which they landed, and ascended the lighthouse, from which elevated spot a panoramic view of the whole of the forts of Cronstadt and of the ships in harbour is afforded. Hal. ing passed some time in the lighthouse they re-embarked in the Merlin, and steamed along the southern shore to make a closer observation of the forts, and returned on bard their respective ftsg-ships at sunset. The Magi cienne was ordered to be ready for service during the night, the ships to bank their fires and to prepare for sailing At 9 a.m, of the Ist of June the Dragon and Merlin were again under weigh, for the purpose of conveying the two flag officers and their suite along the north coast of Cronstadt, in order to enable them to make a recon naissance of the large batteries on that side of it, in which they were engaged for several hours. About 2 p.m., the French squadron, under the command of Rear- Admiral Penaud, and consisting of the Tourville, 90 ; Austerlitz, 100 ; Duquesne, 90 ; and D'Assas, 16, at screw-ships, hove in sight. By 5 p.m. they had anchored ahead of the English division of the fleet. The Tour ville, flag-ship of the French Admiral, hoisted English colours, and fired a salute of 15 guns. The Duke of Wellington hoisted the French ensign, and saluted it with 21 guns. Soon afterwards the French Commander in-Chief embarked in his barge, and paid a visit to Rear- Admiral Dundas, with whom he had a long interview. On his departure salutes were exchanged by the respec tive flagships. In the evening the Bulldog paddle steamer arrived from the westward with two colliers in tow—the Red Rose, of Dundee, barque, and Paragon, brig. The Magicienne was ordered to complete coaling with all possible despatch. After an interchange of visits between Rear-Admirals Penaud and Seymour on the morning of the 3d, they, with the English Commander in -Chief, embarked in the Merlin. The Dragon baying come up with the Admiral, both steamers proceeded on a cruise off the north side of Cronstadt, standing in for the shore until almost within range of the forts, where they hove-to for four hours, minutely surveying the enemy's means of defence. Their movements were closely watched by the Rus sians, 'who stationed themselves at their guns, which were laid at the greatest elevation. At 5 p.m. the steamers were observed steering back to the anchorage ; tioe - CO - tiveSisififiAtie fir); 'We Dragon being in company, towards the south front of the island. Having landed at the Lighthouse, and from its summit having made a reconnaissance of the fortifica tions, the Russian men-of-war, &c., in the harbour, the Admiral returned at 9 p.m. The position of the submarine piles outside the en trance to the harbour on the north side is said to have been ascertained. Three line-of-battle ships and two frigates are moored across the harbour's mouth. Along the line of coast leading to it several additional earth works have been thrown up, and the defences generally have been materially strengthened since the fleet was at anchor off Cronstadt in 1854. In addition to the line-of battle ships lying under shelter of the forts, there is a large flotilla of gun-boats ; the harbour is so thickly studded with them that it is impossible to count them ac curately, but their number is estimated at little short of 200. And now that the flag officers of the allied naval forces have satisfied themselves of the strong position of the enemy, it remains for them to devise measures for wresting it from his grasp. It is not easy even to guess the conclusion at which they will arrive ; but the nn pression of other officers whose opinions are worthy of respect is that Cronstadt cannot be successfully assailed, and that its fall will not take place during the present campaign. On the first occasion, before referred to, on which the two British rear admirals made a reconnaissance on the northern side of Cronstadt, the Merlin having stood in shore as far as practicable, they embarked in their re spective gigs and proceeded within 1,400 yards of the spot where the enemy's vessels blockading the channel leading to the harbour are at anchor. The Russians, however, did not fire on them, their object being to make them prisoners, which they attempted, but fortunately were prevented in accomplishing by the officers on board the Merlin, who, observing the enemy's intention, promptly made signal " that two Russian boats were in chase," hoisted the " recall" for all boats, and fired a gun to enforce immediate ob e di en ce to the signal, as is the custom in the service on important occasions. This circumstance was sufficient t o conv i nce the Admirals that their opponents were making some important move ment, and induced them to return to the Merlin, where they were apprised of their narrow esca pe. admitting that it is necessary fo r the allied fleets to Very few events of general interest have occurred during the last four days in the siege operations, nor has any change taken place in the condition of the works beyond the gradual advance of the approaches against the enemy's more prominent positions. Each day rumour has asserted that the following day would see the opening of the new batteries, and the commencement of the third bombardment ; and each, in turn, by its stationary quietude, has given the lie to the assertions of its predecessor. A council of war was assembled at an early hour of the morning at head-quarters on the 29th inst., when, it is stated, the arrangements were completed respecting the reopening of the fire, but their nature has not, of course, transpired. It is not unlikely that the renewal of the fire will be delayed until matters are ripe for a connected series of combined movements, such as will tend to engage the attention of the Russian forces, if not to detach a considerable portion of the army from the immediate neighbourhood of Sebastopol. News from the army at Kertch has been looked for with general interest, and the probable influence on the Russian tactics of their losses in that direction has been a subject of much speculation. On all sides firmer hopes are now held of a successful issue to the great enterprise in which the allied armies are engaged ; and this, not only on account of the vast superiority in fire which will be brought to bear on the town and works as compared with the former bombardments, but also because it is argued that the Russians cannot have the means at hand of interrupting the operations about to take place iu the field, or they would not have left the key to the j '"Ou'r liefiffgee'reetenkerticn extend to the 29th instant., and were received here on the 30th By these ac counts the military road along the Tongue of Arabat bad been destroyed, an d some ma g azi nes at Arabat itself had been blown up.

It will be important that the position on le Maneelon is secured at the same time that the quariis crowned, as there is little doubt that some of the gu on the for trier hill bear on the quarry.

A new device of the envy has been loading some field pieces, which are placed the lower The allied troops on the Tchernaya front remain very much in the position they occapied on the 28th inst.— the day of the advance from the lines of Balaklava.. The Sardinians are still on the extreme right, the Turks on the right, and the left wing, stretching to the plateau of Sebastopol, is composed of French and Turks. Turks, too, slightly intermixed with French troops, form a re serve in the rear. The French cavalry has advanced up from the plain and taken up its position in the centre. The Sardinian Lancers on the right are encamped in the rear of the contingent. In the evening they advance to do picket duty against Tchorgoun—a task in which they are assisted by our own cavalry, who, for that purpose, march up nightly from the lines of Balaklava. Though the position of the troops is the same in the main, still there has been a good deal of shifting and arranging of camps ; and the last few days, though they were poor in events, have not been idle. It seems to be General Canrobert's intention to bring his en campments into perfect line of battle, and to push the troops on the enemy from the positions they occupy on the hills commanding the valley of the Tcher naya. There is also reason to believe that the next ad vance, whenever it shall be made, will be made with the assistance of British troops, for the Guards are under marchin g orders, and the Light Division are preparing to move from the post which, for seven long months, they have held in the Sebastopol front. Up to the pre sent the 31st Regiment alone represents the British in fantry among the troops that are to unlock the gates of the mountain fortress upon which we look down. The Russian lines, which the army under General Canrobert is about to take, are very strong by nature. We know enough of the Russian engineers to suppose that they have availed themselves of all the advantages of the position on our extreme left at Inkerman ; the steep chalk rock rises at some distance from the Tcher naya, and appears almost as if nature, in a fit of military engineering, had fashioned the rock for defence. The Russians, still remembering Alma, appear to think that our chief advance will be male from our left, where inaccessible mountains are to be climbed and batteries to be taken. All this day they were busily engaged to still more add to the advant tges of their posi tion, by the digging of rifle-pits to command the bridge and fords of the Tchernaya. They seem to think that an attack upon their left, the passing through the defiles, and crowning the heights of Tchorgoun, requires a de gree of generalship, of which the allied armies, up to the present, have given no evidence. We on the other hand rely upon General Canrobert and our own African bri gadiers to whom this mountain war is familiar ; we look hopefully upon the vast numbers of light troops that are at General Canrobert's disposal ; we expect much of the Zouaves, much of our light division, and perhaps still more from the skill and agility of the Sardinian Rifles. Whenever these troops advance from their present posi tion, it is hoped that the burden of the attack will rest upon Tchorgoun. The Sebastopol front has been remarkably tranquil, with the exception of Saturday mornin g , before day break, when the Russians for some hours kept up a tre mendous cannonade on all parts of our lines, and those of the French. Of course, all the guns we had in work ing order answered. It was a general bombardment from Inkermann to Kamiesch, but I cannot learn that it did much execution on either. The greatest activity in placing and repairing still prevails in our trenches, and it is confidently asserted that all the preparations are to be completed to-morrow, and that the third bombard ment of Sebastopol is to commence on Wednesday morn ing. If so, it will most likely take place at one and the same time with the battle of Tchorgoun. Appropos of Tchorgoun, when we occupied the village for a short time on Friday last, the French got posses sion of the Russian mail bags that had just arrived, with numbers of letters for officers and some few for soldiers. The bags were taken to the French headquarters, where, no doubt, the letters have been opened. Their contents, if interesting, are likely to transpire, and everybody looks with great interest to the revelations of the intercepted Muscovite letters. The glorious news from Kertch reached the camp first in the shape of two rumours. One was that we bad taken the town and 50 guns, without the loss of a single man. The other, that the allied forces had been hotly engaged, that they took the town at the cost or z,voo yeif,;;;_l a y the authentic news of the taking of Kertch and the complete result of the expedition was published in general orders and read to the troops on parade. They received the announcement with enthusiastic cheers. The weather is most favourable to the carrying on of military operations. The Sardinians, who are extremely strict, and who, strangers yet to the various uniforms of the armies, are full of suspicious, stopped and almost arrested a couple of Guards officers, who on Saturday last rode up to exa mine the new position. This morning they arrested two navvies who had been found strolling near the Sardinian lines. Our new allies were positive these navvies must be Russian spies. Picture the indignation of the men in red jackets and linen trousers at those foreigners mis taking them for Roossians and spies. " They be Roos sians ! No, not they—they'd scorn the baction." In spite of their protests, they were marched to Lord Raglan's headquarters, and banded over to our military authorities, who, of course, set them free. On the other band, I should not wonder if the very admirable uniform of the Sardinian line regiments did not• lead to awkward mistakes—at a distance they are so much like the Russians ! • RELEASE OF PRISONERS.—On Monday a number of the men brought home in the prizes frorn•theßaltic, and put on board her Majesty's ship Crocodile, off the Tower, were released and put ashore at the Tower-wharf, with the whole of their personal effects. THE NEW YORK, NEWFOUNDLAND, AND LONDON TELEGRAPH COMPANY.—This company have, through the medium of one of their directors, • been in commu nication with parties in Cork, to obtain information re specting that harbour, with a view of having Cork estab lished, if possible, ass. "port of call" for the Collins line of steamers during the present summer. The company's telegraphic line will, it is stated, be very soon com pleted from the continent of America to St. John's, Newfoundland, and the object sought to be attained is to bring intelligence direct from that point by the steamers to Cork, whence telegraphic communication with Liverpool and London already exists. "The mat ter is so feasible,". observes the Cork Reporter, " that we have every hope in the present session to see this port made a transatlantic ' port of call,' its fitness for which w© have so frequently contended for." MILITIA. The Montgomery Rifles are undergoing steady and constant drill at Welshpool, where they have been sta tioned since January last. The full complement is 320, but the corps is about 80 short, in consequence of the large number given to the regulars and the loss occa sioned by those who availed themselves of the provisions of Lord Panmure's order. Of the latter, however, many who were disbanded have been re-attested, and the regiment is now about 240 strong. The corps has given 100 men to various regiments. Yesterday the billets of the City of London Militia having expired, were renewed, by order of the Adju• tant-General for 28 days. It was expected that the re giment would have proceeded to the camp at Aldershott on Thursday ; but it is understood that its destination has been changed, and that the corps will proceed to Woolwich and relieve the Queen's Own Light Infantry (Tower Hamlets), which regiment will remove to Alder shott. Orders have been issued for the embarkation of those regiments of militia which have volunteered for service at Gibraltar, Malta, and the lonian Islands, to relieve the regiments of the Line at those places which are un der orders for the Crimea. Those corps for service must number at least 450 bayonets respectively. The Oxford shire, Monmouthshire, Essex Rifles, and Berkshire Re giments of Militia, it is believed, will be the first to embark. II01) INTELLIGENCE.

We have received several other reports of the progress of the plantations from our cor respondents ; the whole of them speak of the generally healthy state of the plants, and the comparative absence of vermin.—South, Eastern Gazette. TICE CROPS IN MID KENT.—The weather during the past week has been highly favourable for the whole of the growing crops, and corn especially is making satis factory progress. Turnips and mangel wurzel are also doing well, and the grass, though it must necessarily be very short in quantity, is coming forward better than at one time was to have been expeeted.—South. Eastern Gazette. SUSSEX AGRICULTURAL REPORT.—We have had a week of splendid weather, and vegetation has made a vast stride. Of the crops the reports from all quarters are highly satisfactory. Even on thin light soils, where the severe winter has made itself felt and given rise to anticipations of a very barren yield, appearances are now much improved, and promise far more satisfactory re sults. On the heavy lands there would seem nothing left to wish for. The wheats are of a rich colour, look ing as luxuriant and vigorous as possible, and holding out the prospect of a magnificent growth. Other grain, as well as peas and beans and potatoes. air() present a most flourishin appearance, the late rains having ope rated most beneficially on all these crops. The pastures have improved wonderfully, and though the hay harvest must necessarily be late and the grass of less length than usual, there are strong indications that the crop will by no means be of the meagre character anticipated a few weeks ago. On all sides the most glowing descriptions are given_ of the orchards. The show of blossom is every where most splendid, and there is every reason to anti cipate an abundant crop. By way of climax to this pro mising condition of things, it may be added that the re poeons tt encourag ing that the de i s : c ts ri f p r t o i m on, th a e ll h c o o p ne d u i r s r t i r n ic g ts in ar t e heo f si t a h tee is clean, healthy and vigorous.

Last week 1,087 persons, of whom 565 were males and 522 females, died. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1845-54 the ave rage number was 931, and, if this is raised in a certain proportion as allowance for increase of population, it becomes 1,024. There was an excess in the deaths of last week of 63 above the estimated amount. Of the 1,087 deaths 515, or nearly a half, occurred under 20 years of age ; only 25 occurred at 80 years and upwards. Of 235 deaths which are ascribed to diseases of the zymotic class, 186 were among young persons not more than 20 years old, 25 occurred at the ages 20.40, 12 at 40-60, 11 at 60-80, and one at a more advanced age. Of diseases in that class, scarlatina, which was fatal in 53 cases, is at present the most prevalent. Neit in the number of cases referred to them are typhus and hooping-cough, from each of these 43 deaths having been registered. Small-pox numbers 22, diarrhoea 16, and measles 10. Three deaths from scarlatina occurred in the sub-district of Gray's-inn-lane, and three in that of Poplar. The deaths of two persons are returned as caused by intemperance. Last week the births of 870 boys and 840 girls, in all 1,710 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1845-54 the average number was 1,414. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29 . 779 in. The highest raading occurred at the end of the week, and was 29 . 99 in. The mean temperature was 58.5 deg., which is 1 deg. above the average of the same week in 38 years. The warmest day was Wednesday, when the highest temperature was 83.5 deg. ; the lowest was 57 . 8 deg., and the mean was 71.4 deg., which is 13 . 9 deg. above the average. The highest in the sun on that day was 107 . 5 deg. On the following day the mean tempe rature fell to 57 . 6 deg., which is rather below the ave raze. The lowest temperature in the week occurred on Sunday, and was 39 . 3 deg. The mean dew-point tem perature of the week was 48'4 deg., and the difference between this and the mean temperature of the air was 101. deg. The temperature of the water on the Thames on the first five days was 55 . 8 deg. The wind blew generally from the south-west. On Thursday 0.08 inch of rain fell, and the whole amount in the week did not exceed 0 . 10 inch. MORTALITY IN THE METROPOLIS. NUMBER OF DEATHS FROM ALL CAUSES REGISTRTUID auri- ATuRDAY, JUNE 9.
