It merely gives expression, simply, yet beautifully, to seltiments in which the great body of her people fully and cordially concur—rendering fervent but humble thanks to the " LORD OF HOSTS," and, at the same time, declaring the honest pride with which she has regarded " this fresh instance of their he roism," and bestowing well-merited thanks on the victors "'for the cheerfulness and fortitude with which they have encountered the toils of the protracted siege, and the valour which has led to its auspicious termination." But, while rejoicing for the victory, her MA JESTY does n ot forget the heavy cost by which it has teen gained. She declares her deep sympa thy with the noble sufferers iu their country's cause. This graceful tribute of affectionate and grateful remembrance will carry con solation .to many a sick bed ; will alleviate the affliction, and pour balm into the wounds of the heroes who have bled in the fierce conflict ; afford a melancholy satisfaction to the mourners who have lost those near and dear to them, and gratify the gallant survivors who passed unscathed through the fiery ordeal. The Royal approbation was also most suitably conveyed to General (now Marshal) PELISSIER, and, through him, to the valiant soldiers whose indomitable courage and irresistible impetuosity mainly produced this fortunate result. It would be impossible to speak too highly of tho zeal, energy, and fidelity to the noble cause in which; they are engaged, displayed by our bravo Allies, from the Commander-in-Chief to the humblest soldier in the French ranks. Suffice it to say, that their chivalrous valour and the in estimable services they have rendered are duly ap preciated by their English brethren, and that every one throughout the length and breadth of the land —tho SOVEREIGN, the peer, and the peasant—alike participate in the honourable recognition of their daring and triumphant exploits. It only remains that a suitable time should be appointed to cele brate the victory—to testify the national rejoicings in its honour, and to announce the well-merited rewards that will certainly be bestowed on those who have borne the toil, and whose - labours have been crowned with such complete success. It is announced, and we believe truly, that twenty-five thousand men have already been de spatched to the North of Sebastopol, in order that by effecting a junction with the troops now sta tioned at Eupatoria, they may be enabled to operate at the rear of the Russians, and to cut off the retreat of Prince GOItTSCHAROFF and his fol lowers, should they attempt to escape by Perekop. We are :induced to lend credence to this rumour, inasmuch as the etep thereby indicated should unquestionably have been taken without a me -1"e" de lay. It is one of which we ourselves. have repeatedly pointed out the propriety of as an important portion of the series of operations that should at once have been inaugurated, if we de sired " to improve the occasion," and to reap the legitimate rewards of our triumphs. is also said that Prince GORTSCHAKOFF has already abandoned the North side of Sebasto pol, and it is by no means impossible that while a show of force is maintained on the Mac kenzie heights) the great body of th e re li eving army is already in full retreat toward s B a k s bi- Serai and Simpheropol. These very probable movements should be anticipated and provided .o• •-- " for by the Allied Generals, who should share in the feel ing descrbed by the Latin poet : "Ni,l actum credens, cum quid superesset agendum." This e nergetic zeal by which the heavy blow already inflicted may be far more than doubled, is what is now wanting. No time for recovery should, be allowed. The enemy has afforded many 'evidences of the advantages to be derived from any respite, however trivial, and we should carefully shun the dangerous error. Fortunately we have the means of following up our victory. 'lf there be the will—if the commanders be not fettered by instructions from home, there is undoubtedly the way of accomplishing all that the nation could anticipate—almost all that it could desire. We must not be contented with Sebastopol, when the whole of the Crimea may be made our own, when we can permanently expel the aggressors, from the fair territory of which they so unjustly took possession, and restore the oppressed inhabitants to their ancient and true allegiance. So long as a single Russian establish ment is maintained in the Crimea, or a Russian soldier retains a footing on its soil, tke integrity of the Turkish Empire will still be threatened, the foundation will remain on which future schemes of aggression may be based. The naval predominance of Russia in the Black Sea is, for the present, reduced ; but it may, and if they still hold the Crimea will, most unquestionably be restored. We must take care that the Mus covite snake be not merely "scotched," but that it be completely deprived of vitality. The plans which we have already indicated, and se em phatically urged on the attention of those in authority, would fully meet the exigencies of the situation. The strengthening the force:at Eupatoria, and thereby obtaining a powerful army to operate on that secure base—the despatch of a consider able body to the Tcheterlik, and thus obtaining a complete command of the various roads con verging in that locality from all districts west from Karasu-bazar, together with a simulta neous advance from Aloushta, would hem in the Russians on every side, and induce them soon to apply for favourable terms of capitulation. By this means we should soon obtain a glorious reward for all our labours, and would enjoy the honourable and permanent peace which had been so gloriously conquered by the prowess of the Allies. While on this point we cannot refrain from congratulating the nation on the enthusiastic terms used by Lord PALMERSTON in his address to the people of Melbourne, not merely as to past triumphs, but on the future conduct of ::.he War. The Premier does not say that we have already achieved our object, but that " final success must attend our arms ;" and he speaks of that success as arising from the valour of the French and Eng lish forces—the inflexible integrity and loyal fidelity of our Imperial Ally, and also, and very deservedly, of the magnanimous and chivalrous conduct of the Sardinian Government, and the tried valour of its troops. Although much dependence cannot be placed on general terms issuing from Ministerial lips, we hail with great satisfaction the observations which have just fallen from Lord PALMERSTON, and the effect whereof were materially enhanced by the tone and manner of their delivery. If the Noble Lord act in accordance with these views he will consolidate his own power, and acquire a degree of popular favour seldom enjoyed by any of his predecessors. He has a golden opportunity before him. Let us earnestly hope that he will turn it to due account, that it may neither be neglected nor misapplied. ' The two great iniquities perp 3trated by CATHA RINE were the annexation of the Crimea with all the Tartar countries adjacent to the Black Sea, and the partition of Polaid. The first of these barefaced crimes, just seventy years after it was completed, has now met its reward. May the second be visited with a like penalty ! Boti, were accomplished by the most unblushing per fidy, fraud, and violence—both have been fertile in mischief to Europe, and so far as human vision can discern, the repose of the old world almost depends upon the punishment of both of these monstrous acts of injustice—on Russia being re duced to Muscovy ; and the old Tartar territories on the one hand, and Poland on the other, being reconstituted as the defence of the world against the barbarous and arrogant ambition which aims at universal empire. Having occurred just before the recollection of the present generation, few are aware of the con summate and unscrupulous wickedness by which CATHARINE took possession of the Crimea. It is worth a moment's attention, however, if only to deepen the conviction that it never ought to re vert to Russia. It would be as wrong as inexpe dient to give her again the fruits of a robbery not less outrageous than that perpetrated on Poland, although from the half-civilised condition of the people, and from its comparative remoteness, it attracted less attention. PETER the GREAT was the beginner of the policy which aimed to give his Muscovites the mastery of the Black Sea. Ills attempts on the Sea of Azoff and the Crimea, though at first successful, ended in his losing all ho had gained. The treaty of the Pruth in 1711 left the Black Sea, as before, an Ottoman lake. In less than thirty years after, Russia having on the most absurd pretexts invaded, and according to her wont bru tally ravaged the Crimea, had a second time to conclude a peace by which she gave up all, even the absurd pretexts themselves. Her armies on this occasion were led by an Irishman, an English man, and a Scotchman, who had all followed the Pretender into exile ; and by a German, Marshal MUNICH. Twenty-eight years later war broke out between Russia and Turkey again. It proved disastrous to the Porte ; the Crimea was overrun, and its termination was the now celebrated Treaty o f Kainardji. One incident of the War is worth selecting. Austria agreed, for a subsidy, to aid the Porte. She took the first instalment, o f 2 i l t e e million sterling, and immediately employed troops it equipped in the service of th e C zar i na ! Such, at that time, was the power with whom the COBURGS have now intermarried. Let " Rein forcements from the Danube," a Russianised Hospodar in Wallachia, the antagonism to a Polish Legion, the prevention of OMER PASHA'S movements in Bessarabia, and her entire evasions of war,—let these decide whether the HAPSBURGS have changed their nature. But now for the crowning act of Russian perfidy in contrast with Turkish honour. The Treaty of Kainardji, to which Russia audaciously appealed a.-; justifying the MENscHIKoFF mission, was as explicit in declaring the independence of the Crimea, and of the other Tartar countries, as it was iu limiting the ecclesiastical rights of. Russia in Turkey, to permission to build one Greek Church in Constantinople, to be exclusively under the protection of her Ministers ; with the promise to protect generally the Christian religion, and to listen to representations from Russia as from a friendly power. The language of the Treaty was the strongest conceivable. It is worth while to quote the substance from the Rev. THOMAS MILNER'S conv en i en t li tt l e work All the Tartar tribes, exception, are recognise y the those of the Crimea, of the Ku• ati free nations , ban, &c., without any two Empiresrecognised entirely independent of . - . every foreign power. They shall be under the imme diate government of their own Khan of the tribe of Genghis Khan, who shall be elected and confirmed by the universal assent of the Tartar nations, and he is bound to govern them after their original manners and customs without ever being responsible to any foreign Power ; in pursuance of which, the Ottoman Porte will in no way interfere either in the election or confirmation of the above-mentioned Khan (the Sultan had previously the Suzeraignty of the Crimea), or in his domestic, political, civil, and home affairs. It will, on the contrary, regard and recognise the said Tartar nation, in its civil and political relations, as equal to all other Powers which: govern themselves and are dependent only up9n GOD. The ecclesiastical ceremonies, as they are identical with those of the Moslem, and his highness the Sultan is the sublime Caliph of Mahommedanism, shall be regulated according to the decrees of their religion without in any way restricting their political and religious liberty." The article closes with the words, " The Sublime Porte binds itself and solemnly promises, after the example of Russia—not to introduce or support any garrison or armed forces in the said towns, fortresses, countries, and dwellings ; further, for the future to appoint no governor or officer to those States, under whatever pellation it might be, but to leave the Tartars in perM liberty and independence as is done by Russia." The Turks adhered to the treaty with Turkish honour, and that under great provocations. The details of Russian villany we have not room for ; one sentence must suffice. Only nine years after, Russia relieved the Tartars from their " depen dence on Gon," proclaimed them dependetit on the Great Harlot Goddess of the Russians of that day, and declared the Crimea and all Tartary for ever annexed to the Russian Empire ! ! It is on the honour of such a country, on the fidelity to treaties of such a race, that Lord JOHN RUSSELL, Earl GREY, and the Peelites would have us rely ! It were insanity to do so. The cleverest overreacher is the man whom Russians delight to honour. They literally, we know it on the autho rity of the most impartial travellers, have not the idea of honour, in the sense of civilised Europe. They simply hold a man for a fool who keeps an engagement against his interest, unless under some kind of compulsion to do it. CA.THA.RINE gloried, and so do her successors to this day glory, in the cunning which overreached the Tartars, Turks, and Poles, far more than in any military victories ; the latter, indeed, were but scant in number. With such a power it is childish to treat till her border strength, of countries which she has first swindled into her power and then crushed their liberties, is annihilated. We trust, therefore, that the 9th of September was but the first step in undoing the guilty works of CATHARINE, It has reclaimed the Crimea to the independence which she herself solemnly bound herself to respect and uphold. So far justice is appeased, and already' the conscience of upright politicians throughout Europe feels sen sibly relieved. But Europe has another great deed of justice to perform before a secure peace is possible. Russia must be driven from Poland also. The only treaty which will bind Russia must be written on the plains of Poland, and en graved on the gates of her towns. Parchment she will treat as she has done that of Kainardji— tearing to pieces any part which should secure the independence of her neighbours, and stretching into MENSCHIKOFF demands any other which seems to admit of str&uing to her purposes. Warsaw, IVlodlin, Zamosc, and Kiew are the "four points" on which alone it is worth an attempt to treat. We believe they would, compared with Sebasto pol, be easy points. During the last fifteen years what important events have transpired !—what changes affecting the destinies of the world—what discoveries, what improvements, what advances in almost every direction have been effected among us. Yet now that rumour is busy with matches for the PRINCESS ROYAL, it seems to us but the other day her MAJESTY stooped to the silken bonds of matrimony. Time, however, moves on whether we carefully note its progress or not ; and we are indebted to any occasion that sug gests such a retrospect of the past as enables us to disc)ver what progress we have made, not merely in politic, the arts and sciences, but also in morality, for though individuals in every age have approximated closely to its height, nations advance slowly upward, and by degrees. The rumours to which we have referred have suggested this train of thought, and to their sub ject matter only is it our intention to refer. There is a young maiden just entering her teens—a Royal Princess, too, the daughter of the Queen of a free people, to whom all the rights and im munities of her sex ought to be inviolably assured —actually having her destiny carved out for her by public gossip, at least, as though the dearest privilege of womanhood—that essential element towards matrimonial happiness, the liberty of choice—were inevitably denied her, and, like the miserable slave, she must wait the pleasure of the best bidder. It is positively re volting, and it says little for the advance of civilisation among us that such rumours should have any currency, un accompanied or pursued by express ions of indig nant reprobation. There are few meannesses to which the beg garly Princes of Germany will not condescend, but we are grievously deceived if an English woman like our QUEEN would suffer her own flesh and blood to he put up in the royal market of Europe for sale to him who can offer the highest title and position, or the meanest subserviency of disposition. In a hundred instances her MAJESTY has displayed those lofty, generous, and womanly virtues by which true-hearted English ladies are characterised, and we find it impossible to be lieve that all at once she could descend so low. She cannot but be aware that an English Princess differs from other Princesses in this, that her at tendants have liberty to marry whom they please, and that with this knowledge she must feel it as a grievous hardship if she has less liberty of choice than they, and that this feeling suggests but little prospect of her future happiness. Nor can her MAJESTY have forgotten what misery the Royal Marriage Act has occasioned, what grievous national scandal and disaster ; and her memory may revert to an unfortunate English Prin cess wearing out her life the prisoner of a northern despot, who was not her choice. Nor can she be ignorant of the little hold calculating mo narchs have had on the princely consorts of their daughters in after life, nor of the noble example recently set by NAPOLEON, any more than she is likely to be unmindful of what she owes to the generous instincts, the pride and the materi. interests of her subjects in a matter like this. Most assuredly the people would remind her if she were. They would ask what they had . done to have so flagrant an outrage offered to the one and insult to the other ? Why an English Prin cess in the face of Europe was debarred of the privileges of Englishwomen—why the princely old clothesmea of Germany should be the only admitted aspirants for her hand, to the exclusion of all the chivalrous blood and manly worth of the youth of her own dominions ? Why the net of Germanism, which has hampered every operation of the War, and caused the expenditure of a count less amount 'of blood and treasure, should so speedily be tightened and strengthened by such a sacrifice ? All this, and more, they would most undoubtedly and reasonably ask. But why proceed further? Come what aspiring Prince may to woo, with half-a-crown in his pocket, her ~. . .. I• . .i ..

Or the Benefit of the Wounded Soldiers, the Widows and Orphans of those who nobly fell at the In a few shcrt days that shout of victory which rises from the united heart of England will have passed away, but, before it has passed, the public ought to have some opportunity of unmistakeably :pressing the lively sentiments of gratitude with which they are foapressed by the daring acts of valour, the brilliant exploits, and the great success of our brethren in arms. Patriotism suggests this, Justice demands it, sympathy requires it, and all point to the propriety of devoting a day on which all classes, front the peer to the peasant, may assemble and contribute, by their presence, to a fund for the solace of the wounded, and for the allevia tion of the sufferings of the widows and orphans. Imbued with these feelings, Mr. Simpson intends throwing open the gates of Cremorne, en Monday next, and every day throughout the week, to the public, *Then the amount of the whole of the admissions will be appropriated to the creation of a Cremorne Fund, to be distributed under the sanction and advice of a Committee. The London and County Bank has consented to become temporary trustees, and will receive subscriptions in aid of this desirable object. As in these fetes Mr. Simpson is desirous to unite all available talent and attraction, he will feel much oblized by an offer from any pro fessional Lady, Gentleman, or Exhibitor, who may be inclined to aid and assist him in his anxious exertions to increase the interest and importance of each day.

MAJESTY will act in thaaffair as b. coaxes a British Queen, and the most exalted matron in the world. We have got beyond the times of GEORGE the Third; after all there is a people now, and the immorality Of the Royal Marriage Act is pretty generally scouted. The Marquis and Machioness of Westminster, and the Ladies Agnes and Theodora Grosvenor, left Motcombe House, Dorset, yesterday, for Eaton Halt, Cheshire. The Earl and Lady Constance Grosvenor have joined the circle visi:'ng the Duke and Duchess of Sutherland, at Dunrob'n Castle. Lord Haddo, M.P., continuos in delicate health at the Ranger's Lodge, Blackheath. It is thought the noble lord n be obliged to resort to a milder climate for the ensehm• winter. Colonel the Hon. Alexander Cordon has i - turned to Argyll House from visaing the Eacl of Aberdeen at Hrddo House, N.B. The gallant colonel will, it is un derstood, immediately retura to Cie Crimea. Lord and Lady Lindsay have arrived at Dunecht House, from the Earl of Crawford and Balcarres' seat, Haigh Hall, Lancashire. The Rev. John Fielder Mackharness, M.A., has been instituted to the rectory of Honiton, Devon. The Rev. E. W. Wakeman, brother of Sir Offley Wakeman, Bart., was found dead in his bed last Satur day morning, at his residence, Cotton Hall, near Bridgnorth. THE PLANET VENUS.—This beautiful planet will dis appear from our evening sky, of which it is now so brilliant an ornament, a little before the 19th of this month, soon after which it becomes a morning star. The Princess Trivulzio Belgiojoso, well known in the political world for the pert she took in the events of Italy in 1848 and 1849, has just arrived at Montpellier from the East. M. A. Fould, Minister of State, has resumed the ad ministration of his department, which was held ad interim by the Minister of Justice. The Duchess of Genoa has sent I,ooof. to the com mittee for the Piedmontese army in the Crimea.

Lord'and Lady Cardross have sustained a domestic bereavement by the death of their youngest son, which took place a few days ago at Edinburgh. The viaduct, near Wellingborough, in connection with the Hitchin and Leicester R Away, has given way, in consequence of which three of the principal arches will have to be taken down. ATHOLE GATHERING.—This celebrated annual meeting came off at Blair Castle on Wednesday last with the greatest possible eclat. The weather was highly favour able for the performance of the games. The Athol° guardsmen numbered about 'lBO stalwart Highlanders, and there could not be fewer than from 4.000 to 5,000 spectators present. Among them were his Highness Maharajah Dhuleep Singh. A WIDOW, YET A WIFE.—An inhabitant of Corfu, who some time ago returned from Spitzbergen, after an absence of 28 years, found his wife in good health, but the widow of three husbands. THE ROYAL EXCHANGE.—This edifice is now further disfigured by the shopkeepers being allowed to thrust out awnings before their windows, and to do so without any regard to uniformity, they being hung at different heights. The Vienna Prase states that a waterspout of a de structive character occurred near Massling, in Germany, on the sth instant. Bridges, ano houses were destroyed. There are from 70 to 80 persons missing, and 40 persons have already been found drowned. A DESERTED VILLAGE.—A. local paper states that in the fertile pariah of Castleton, containing 80,000 acres, with a population of 0n1y.2,130, there is not sufficient grain raised to support the few inhabitants. The land, with trifling exceptions, belongs to the Duke of Buc cleucb, and the farms are large. TEsrimoNIAL.--Mr. George Robert Gepp, eldest sen of the Rev. G. E. Gepp, head master of Ashbourn Free Grammar School, has been presented with a very neat dressing-case, as a mark of the estimation in which he is held by his fellow-students, and as a remembrance of many kindnesses performed by him towards them.

Cook, RN., F.R.S., Professor of Fortifications, at Addiscornbe, "for improveenents in the method of working gigantic fans, called punkas, for agitating the air in hospitals, barracks, churches, and other lai go buildings, in tropical climates, and, in the height of summer, in more northern latitudes. FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE LONDON AND BRIGHTON RAILWAY.--Yesterday, Daniel Taylor, aged 28, N o . 21, Webb-street, South war k, expired at Guy's Hospital from the effects of injuries received while in the act of collect ing tickets of the travellers from a train in motion. DESTRUCTION BY FIRE OP A NAPTHA. WORKS.— THREE LIVES LOST.—WOLVERHAMPTON, Friday After noon.—Shortly after two o'clock this afternoon a fire occurred at the Naptha and Creosote Oil Works, in this town, of Messrs. Booth and Co., by which three persons have been killed, about seven or eight others seriously injured, and property worth several hundred pounds destroyed. AN AUSTRALIAN VENTURE.—In 1852" a gentleman sent, from Scotland, among others, a package of goods worth 2SI. to Melbourne, fondly hoping for a good re turn. During last month (August 1855) he received an account sales of his goods, amounting to 4/. odd, the 281. worth of goods having realised 11/. 10s., and having been subjected to charges amounting to 71. odd. On applying for payment of the balance in the account sales, he was thunderstruck to find that outward freight and charges were still to be deduCted, and that, instead of receiving any money, he was indebted V. ss. 7d. LOCAL MANAGEMENT ACT. ST. GEORGE'S-IN-THE EAST.— Yesterday Mr. Pulling, the assessor, attended at the vestry-room for the purpose of dividing the parish into wards. Mr. Howard, the vestry clerk, put a question to the learned assessor, whether non-resident landlords who compounded for the rates were to be considered as rated householders. Including the non-resident landlords, there were 2,588 ; but the non-resid en t l an dl or d s b e i ng 656, reduced the number of resident to 1,932. The ques tion had therefore been raised 'whether under the act the aesessor had any power to divide the parish into wards at all, there not being really 2,00 resident householders. After a protracted discussion, the assessor agreed to adjourn for a fortnight, in order that he might consult h;s colleagues, and, if necessary, take the opinion of the Attorney-General on the point which had been raised. SEEASTOPOL.—The distinction made by Le Nord be tween the Sebastopol of the South and the Sebastopol of 1 the North, is simply ridiculous. Sebastopol, properly so called, was situated on the south of the bay, and con tained the arsenals, the storehouses, the docks, the dock yards, and, in fact, all the resources of the maritime power of Russia in the Black Sea. All that is now a heap of ruins, and in possession of the allied forces. Oa the northern side, undoubtedly, there exist some exceed ingly strong forts, but which can be regularly invested, and taken with unerring certainty in a determined space of time. These forts can have no claim to the pompous appellation of Sebastopol of the North ; and isolated as they are in reality, no mere constitute a fortified place of war than a few massive columns standing here and there could merit the name of a building.—Galignani. A horrible murder has just been discovered at Belle ville, close to Paris. On Saturday last the inhabitants of the Rue des Annelets, having remarked that a lady named Gaillard, aged 55, living at No. 7, had not made her appearance for a couple of days, called the atten tion of the police to the fact. The house, which con sisted of but one storey, and had no porter, having been opened by order of the magistrate, the body of e unfortunate lady was found lying on the floor a pool of coagulated blood. It was ascertained at the murderer had used some heavy instrument kik ,0 inflict the wounds which caused the death of his victim. The chest of drawers, desk, and every other kind of repository, had been ransacked, apparently for the family papers of the deceased ; but a pair of diamond earrings and a diamond ring were still on her person, as were two gold watches, which were hanging up near the bed, untouched. The murderer has not yet been dis covered. BuxToN,--This fashionable spa is at present full of company. On Sunday afternoon the Bev. Dr. 11I'Neill, of Liverpool, preached in the open air. The rev. gentleman teak his stand in the colonnade of the Crescent, and preached a powerful and eloquent sermon from Acts xxiv. 25, to a large and attentive audience, who occu pied the area, the slopes, and the windows of the Crescent. The language was simple, the voice clear and distinct, and the subject argumentative, but to be comprehended by the most unlettered mind. After stating the style and matter of the preaching of St. Paul, the learned gentleman entered into the subjects of his text with earnestness, using illus fra,tigns at once striking and familiar, and affectionately urging upon his hearers the groat doctrine preached by St. Paul. There was neither singing nor prayer. The doctor had previously expounded portions of Scripture to the inmates in the large rooms of several hotels.— Depitire 44146ifer. THE QUE'LAP,S LE:ITELe, To THE ARMY. (From last Night's Gazette.) Lord ranmuro has addressed the following biographic despatch to General Simpson : WAR-DEPARTMENT, SEPT. 12. The Queen has received with deep emotion the welcome intelligence of the fall of Sebastopol. Penetrated with profound gratitude to the Almighty, who has vouchsafed this triumph to the Allied Army, her Majesty has commanded me to express to yourself, and, through you, to the Army, the pride with which sho re gards this fresh instance of their heroism. The Queen congratulates her troops on the triumphant issue of this protracted siege, and thanks them for the cheerfulness and fortitude with which they have encoun tered its toils, and the valour which has led to its termi; nation. The Queen deeply laments that this success is not with out its alloy in the heavy losses which have been sus tained; and, while she rejoices in the victory, her 21,jesty deeply sympathises with the noble sufferers in their cour tly's cause. You will be pleased to congratulate General Pelissier, in her Majesty's name, upon the brilliant result of the as sault on the Malakhoff, which proves the irresistible force as well as indomitable courage of our brave Allies. PANHURE. COURT CIRCULAR. BALMORAL, SEPT. 12. The Qaeen drove out yesterday with the Prince, who afterwards proceeded into the forest to enjoy the sport of deer•stalking. The Prince of Wales and Princ3 Alfred rode out on ponies. - In the afternoon her Majesty again drove out, accom panied by the Princess Royal, and attended by Lady Churchill and the Hon. Beatrice Byng. Despatches were sent from the Colonial-office yester day to the governors of the North American provinces. VISIT OF PRINCE FREDERICK WILLIAM OF PRUSSIA Ti) BALMORAL. ABERDEEN, FRIDAY EVENING. Prince Frederick William of Prussia and the Duke of Cambridge arrived here to-day. The Prince proceeded by the Dundee Railway on a visit to the Queen at Balmoral. He was received at Banchory by his Royal Highness Prince Albert, who had posted 30 milesi, accompanied by General Grey, and proceeded up Deeside for Balmoral . at 3 o'clock. The Duke of Cambridge went north by the Great North of Scotland Railway to Gordon Castle, on a visit to the Duke of Richmond. THE WELLINGTON STATUE FOE THE INDIA-HOUSE. We have much pleasure in inserting the follow, ing from the Times : The statue of the late Duke of Wellington, executed by Mr. Matthew Noble, in pursuance of a vote of the general Court of East India proprietors, as a mark of respect towards the illustrious deceased, and a testimony of their estimation of the services rendered hy him in the East, has just been placed in the niche appropriated to it in the General Court-room at the India-house, and now forms a part of the series of effigies of the military and civil worthies with which the court is ornamented. It is of white marble, rather beyond life size, and represents the duke in military undress costume, having in his hand a telescope. The portraiture is perfect, a , :d by the judicious treatment of the artist a classic purity is ob tained in the whole outline, notwithstanding the preser vation of characteristic costume. The whole outline is flowing and unbroken. The progress of good taste is rendered apparent by the contrast this statue affords to several others in the Court-room, viz., those of Lord Cornwallis, Earl Clive, &c. It represents the departed warrior and statesman precisely as he was, the whole being free from exaggeration and affectation. PRINCESS'S THEATRE. Last night the season of this house came to an honour able close with the 100th representation of Henry played to an audience that filled every available space. At the end of the third act, when Wolsey retires from the scene and leaves the interest to be sustained by Queen Katharine alone, one universal call was raised for Mr. Charles Kean, who, coming before the drop-scene, took leave of the audience in a abort but impressive speech. He thanked them for their support throughout a season that had rer.ched so brilliant a termination, saying that it would be mere affectation to deny that be felt pride at being able to produce a play that had had the unprecedented "run" of 100 nightsoespecially when the play was one of Shakspere's. The pause that was now about to take place, he added, was caused by no decrease in the attractive power of the piece, but from the necessity for au interval of repose, whica was felt by all concerned in the performance. He concluded by announcing the re-opening of the theatre on the 22d of next month, and retired amid a thu:)d,tr of acclamation, THE RUSSIAN ARMY. -----.. The correspondent of the Augsburg Gazette, who writes from the Russian frontier, and treats of mi litary affaira, estimates that at the beginning of the present month Prince Gortschakoff had at his dis posal 130,000 regular infantry and 13,000 cavalry, besides a further force of 36,000 men, composed of the drushines of the levy en masse, the Tcherno mora and other corps of rifles, the sappers, crews of the ships, the Greek volunteer battalions, mak ing in all an army of 179,000 men. From this total, however, are to be deducted the men lost at the Tchernaya, and by ordinary siege casualties during the month of August, and the sick. Tile Russian loss on this day week would probably be compensated by the addition of the grenadiers, who, according to this correspondent, stood in readiness at Perekop,' and are not included the foregoing enumeration. The results just st a t e d being obtained by conjectural estimation of the strength of the several divisions appear to be too hypothetical for practical purposes. AUSTRIAN FRIE!NDSIIIP. The Austrian Gazette, in giving insertion to cer tain extracts from some of the London journals, appends the following expressions in regard to England : " England has been unsuccessful in making the Austrian army her mercenaries ; and as the idea of a pacific solution has already com menced in France, the policy of England, alarmed thereat, holds up the revolutionary torch in order to spread hatred and discord and to finish the work which was for a time •checked in 1848. England may decree laurels to Piedmont. Austria will be as little moved thereby as by the hollow phrases of the English journals. 'Austria, like the whole world, knows the value of British faith and Eng land's friendship, and that she is ever ready to let slip her mad dogs upon those who refuse to hunt for her." OPERATIONS IN THE SEA OF AZOFF. The Invalide fosse contains the following intel ligence from the Sea of Azoff Between the 15th and Mh of August, the enemy's steam-vessels appeared before Genitchi, and cannonaded the town. " On the 18th seven steam-vessels, accompanied by several floating batteries, arrived near the vil lage of Ouzkoui. One of the batteries entered the strait, but being warmly received by the fire of our cannon she was contelled to retire. " On the 21st and 22d, twelve of the enemy's boats which were in the bay of. Genitchi fired upon the town and camp, but without doing any injury. -" On the 23d, six of the enemy's steam-vessels, which were in the bay, weighed anchor and sailed in the direction of Kertch." LIVERPOOL ROYAL AMPHITHEATRE.-012 Wednesday evening last, the whole crew and all the passengers (with their families and friends) of the Gipsy Bride, on the eve of sailing for Australia, paid this house a visit. They filled every box and the whole of the pit. The play was Janet Pride, and, perhaps, Madame Celeste and Mr. Webster, with all their experience in popular approba tion, were never so heartily applauded. In a full theatre a play generally goes well, and Madame Celeste, Mr. Webster, and Mr. Baker seemed to take more than usual pains, and the audience. were delighted. The discount houses have given notice of an increase in their rate of allowance for money at call from 34 to 3/ per cent. For Money at seven days' notice their rate will be 3i. IMPORTS OP SPECIE.—The Royal mail steamer Great Western, from Brazil, has brought 6,2001. The Penin sular and Oriental steamer Tagus, from Lisbon, has 5,7001. The Hamburg advices describe money as being very scarce at 5 per cent. At Paris tbe rate is 4 per cent. SCYOTH AMERICA.—The accounts from the River Plate yesterday by the Brazilian mail describe no commercial changes of importance. In Monte Video the prospect is unfavourable, owing to the incapacity of the people to resist revolutionary intrigues, and the probalelity that Brazil will shortly withdraw her troops and leave them to themselves. Meanwhile the claims of the merchants on account of the loan originally advanced at the request and under the virtual guarantee of the British Govern ment are allowed to remain neglected. At Buenos Ayres there has been more quietude than might have been anticipated, and the foreign immigration, which has already led to such results that the Government ab stain from a census lest the settlers should become aware of their : ownStrengtb, was still going on to a great ex tent, especially from the continent of Europe. T ciT N 12 4 I,‘ , S r TRIESTE, Timm])Av, SEPT. 13. The news from Trebizond comes down to the 30th ultimo. Omer Pacha was expected there with 30,000 men to make a diversion on Kutais and Tiflis. Kars was still invested, but General Williams sent reassuring despatches. BERLIN, THURSDAY. The late commander of the 2d corps d'armee, General Paniutine, has been definitively appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Army of the Centre At Kief. General Bosquet was ,wounded on the Bth by a fragment of .a shell, while encouraging the troops by his example. Four French Generals are stated to have fallen, viz., Generals Saint-Pol, Breton, Maroilles, and Rivet, the latter chief of the staff of the Ist corps. The Generals wounded are, be sides General Bosquet, General Mellinet, of the Imperial Guard, La Motterouqe, Couston, Sisson, Trochu, and Pondeves. The latter has since died of his wounds. General de Failly is not among the wounded, as had been rumoured. DANTZIC, FRIDAY. The Driver has arrived from Nargen, which she left on the 11th. The fleets were at Seskar and Nargen. The Driver brings no news of any importance. MADRID, SEPT. 13. Tho Gazette contradicts the rumour of the entrance of new bands of rebels into Spain from the frontier of France. It announces the paymen of the total arrears of the interest of the debt. FRANCE. PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING. The rumour is current that Gortschakoff has actually abandoned the north side of Sebastcpol. It is reported that 25,000 men have embarked at Balaklava for the north of Sebastopol, in order to be ready to cut off the retreat of Prince Gort schakoff's army, should that general attempt to fall back upon Perekop. The Russian army is known to suffer from want of water. The Emperor, says a letter from St. Omer, is daily expected here to review a brigade which is to set out shortly for Rome. General Canrobert has declined the Field- Marshal's bdton, which has been offered to him. The reason he assigns is, that his acceptance of that dignity would diminish the lustre of General Pelissier's, won as it has been on so bloody a field and by so glorious a triumph. The refusal does the greatestlhonour to General Canrobert. The Moniteur of yesterday gives a long descrip tion of the ceremonial of the Te Deum at Notre Dame, in celebration of the capture of Sebastopol. The following is the address of the Archbishop of Paris, made to the Emperor on his arrival at the cathedral : " Sire,—l hasten to receive your Majesty on the threshold of this august temple, which echoes this day to the loud fame of France's glory. "May our solemn thanksgivings ascend to God for the signal success with which he has just crowned our arms! "So much heroism will soon receive its reward. The great object which your Majesty in concert with your allies is pursuing with so much firmness and wisdom will not fail to be attained ; a glorlaus and lasting peace will be achieved." The Emperor replied— "I come here, Monseigneur, to thank Heaven for the triumph it has vouchsafed to our arms, for I take pleasure in acknowledging that, however great the' skill of the generals and the courage of the soldiers, nothing can succeed without the protection of Provi dence." The Moniteur publishes a report to the Emperor on the operations of the three Colonial Banks in the course of last year. It appears from it that business done in that of Martinique amounted to 7,684,098 f. ; of Guadeloupe, to 7,800,320 f. ; and of La r:,eunion, to 10,202,400 f. ; also that on the 31st December the amouut of notes in circula- tiou was in Martinique, 1,143,675 f. ; Guadeloupe, 2,223,675 f. ; and La 'Minion, 3,886,000 f. The committee of the banquet to be offered to Prince Napoleon has held several sittings, and it is almost resolved that it will take place on the same day as the ball which the city is to give to the exhibitors at the Hotel de Ville. A body of about 100 Russian prisoners arrived yesterday at Lyons from the depot of the Isle of Aix, on their way to Marseilles. They are there to be embarked for the Crimea, in order to be ex changed against a like number of French soldiers taken by the Russians. The Paris corn market again closed - on Wednes day with a further advance of about 2f. the sack of flour, which hai now attained th e p r i ce • o f 106 f. the 157 kilog.

TONNA, Sept. 10.—The fall of Sebastopol, with all its attendant circumstances, has reached us here, and produced a great sensation. The philo- Russians are taken quite aback, and the partisans of the Western Powers more than ever lament that Austria, after having expended 300,000,000f1. in preparations for war, should at the critical moment haie been unable to bring her courage to the sticking point. The present position of Austria is by no means an enviable one. England'and France are of opinion that she has not acted up to her engage ments, and Russia hates her with a deadly hatred. People here begin to ask themselves what is likely to become of the interests of Austria in the East when peace is concluded between the bellige rents. Will the allies she has forsaken take them into consideration, or will Russa speak a word in her favour ? •The little export trade which Austria has hitherto had has been with Turkey, but every one who is gifted with a little perspicacity must see that it is likely soon to be interrupted. If Aus tria hail courageously placed herself on the same level with England and France, those Powers would not have obtained an exclusive right to be listened to by the Porte. Austria solemnly pro mised her allies to make it an immediate casus belli, if the Russians again violated the Turkish terri tory, but when General Uschakoff crossed into the Dobrudseha, 12 or 15 months ago, her army of pro tection (?) in the Danubian Principalities remained totally inactive. The Western Powers feared that "on some fine day" a Russian corps might, in despite of the protests of Austria, advance to Constantino p!e, and, remembering the adage of " safe bind, safe find," they resolved themselves to provide for the defence of the Turkish capital. Germany also begins to be alarmed for " her interests," as we may see by the following extract from the Frankfort Post Zeitung :—Pru*a and the Bund are urged to join Austria, because "if England, i France, and Russia should conclude a separate peace—which is far from being impossible—and. Turkey should be subdivided into kingdoms, com posed of the Danubian Principalities and Bulgaria, , and of Servia, with Bosnia and the Herzegovina, &c., it would not be conducive to the interests of Germany." , •1 The Emperor of Austria has decided that this year there shall be no great concentrations of troops nor permanent camps, and that manoeuvres by regiments shall only be executed from the 15th to the 20th of this month. RUSSIA. Count Orloff, the intimate friend of the late Em peror Nicholas, and now chief of the gendarmerie and commander-in-chief of the Emperor's staff, has just received an Imperial rescript, enumerating his important services to the state during the long period of 50 years, and accompanied with the por traits of the late Emperor and of the present one, set in diamonds, to be worn with the ribbon of St. Andrew. In signing his naive to the rescript, th? Emperor has added in his own handwriting) " Your sincerely devoted friend." For some time past the confiscations of the pro' perty of Polish emigrants to the profit of the RIP? sian Treasury have become more and more fre quent. Letters from Warsaw state that by this redoublement of severity it is hoped to prevent the desertion of the conscripts. The preparations for the new levy have been going on since the middle of last month. Tlie St. Petersbourg Journal publishes the CO tinuation o f P r i nce G ortschako ff' s j ourna l of tl! siege to the sth inst., but which has now lost ail its interest, from the course of subsequent eve nts. A letter from St. Petersburg, in the Presse, de ' scribes in th e following language the dissataact ion of the Emperor Alexanderat the despatch of G - n e ral Gortschakoff, which announced that the E lls ' sian works at Sebastopol were injured by the r of the Allies : " The celebrated deatch from Prince Gorfscha ligg, announcing that 'Our works are suffering,' ca v ' ej 5 great impression a t S t .
