It is, therefore, no' matter of surprise that he should enjoy the reputation of being a most dexterous and skilful manipulator with urethral instruments and when it is remembered that the lamented Liston used to assert that the introduction of instruments through a stricture which had previously been impermeab'e to them, was the most difficult in the whole range of surgical operations, it must be no slight source of gratification on Mr. Courtenay's part, to have achieved the reputation he has in this respect ; and for our part, with the knowledge we have of his experience, we know of no man to whose care we would with greater confidence entrust the treatment of a severe case of stricture of the urethra."—Medical Circular.

THE GREAT WIZARD OF THE NORTH be g s most respectfully to announce that this favouriteplace of amusement will OPE!►T on MON. )AY, Sept. 31, under new au spices, and with *series of Extraordinary Pe!formances. As every- , . thing the Wizard lays his Bind on necessarily undergoes some starting change, the l.ycenris Theatre will, by a ways of his Magic Wand, be instantly transformed info the Wizard's Psyc , rn authetim while the cl •as of Enterta nment- presentel within its wells said be as unlike an, th ng that has been seen before as it 'a ossihie to con ceive. Preparations have been is progress far many months past to produce these Entertainments on a scale of magnitude and excellence worthy of the wizard's fame and posit' arity. His assistant spirits have been ordered to spare no exneese in the compounding•of their -pelts ; and the result it Is hoped will he an Enteres nment which, 'or " starting effects," will far outstrip the wildest French melo drama ; with " rapid chances" more surprising than an actor's play ing twenty parts, in twenty different dresses; with tricks more wonderful than those of an adulterating tradesman: and " trans formations" which would make the alchemists of old expire with envy. PROFESSOR ANDERSON (the Great Wizard of the North) having comrleted the entirs circuit of the globe, and visited ..Imost every part of Euroce, Am Tice, 'lndia, and Australia, at-ended everywhere with a degree of success unexampled, he believes, in the career of any individual aspirieg "o the titles of a co ,, m preitan artiste, will give his extraordinary DELA‘:SEMISNA MASIIQUES in the above Theatre for a limited period, isreparatory to his final retirsment from public life. No,exertion will be spared on hi: part to secure the contienance-of the public favour which he has hitherto enjoyed wherever he has presented himself. On the Continent. from st Petersburg 'o Madrid; in America, from Canada to Me s tea, anti from New York ta San Fr incise° ; everywhere, in short, h tve the Wizard's marvels succeeded most effectually in " astonishing the natives" of the various countries visited. His performances have been prtronised ey audiences amounting in the ag,regate to very many millions ; and he is the only British Professor of his art who, in addition to having been bonoured by all the rousts of Barone, has also been commandei to perform before her .Majesty the QUEEN. Without attempting to exalt the Professor's art beyond its due deserts, let it suffice to say it is his art. He has devoted It mself for years to the perfecting it, and rend ring it more fit.ed to amuse and entertain the public.. That he has been successful in his efforts he thinks, from whit , he has said, Is pretty certain ; indeed a life time spent in diligent pur-uit of excellence in any art, whatever it may he, can scarcely fall in producing some degree of efficiency. it is the result of this long study that will he presented at the Lyceum Theatre. Feats in Modern Mazic hitherto unuttempted will be exhibited by the rid of, apparatus outrivalling any that has been previously constructed. Another feature in Professor Anderson's Delassemens Magiques 11 be a complete disclosure of some of the principal impostures of the age, with illustrations of the mechanism, mystery, aid mischief (.f ;spirit-rapping, Table-turning; Clairvoyance, and other delusions, to he classed generally under the, now popular head of the " sell " theory. In the Wizard's performaness there will be found mirth, for those who seek merriment ; mystery, for those who fancy the mysterious ; parfolo , es, for the lovers or the paradoxical ; wonders, for those who like the wonderful ; startling surprises, 'or those eager for excitement. There will be science for the sage, wisdom fbr the philosopher, art for the artistic, and cheerfulner for all. It will he the Professor's object, in fact, to produce a play each night in which the 'audience themselves shall be the actors, and which, whatever the riot may te, shall certainly be free from the fault of many mo dern dramas—the fault of lacking incident or exciting situations and unexpected denouemens. Such will he the general character of the Wizard's Banquet of Wonders. It will be an ordinary to which he will welcome all. The hill of fare will shortly he published in the programme now preparing; and Professor Anderson, the carver of the feast, will spare no efrost to please the tsste of every guest who may honour h's table with his presence—cutting it fat or lean as each may a ish. The Royal Lyceum Theatre will be op-net by the Wizard of the North, as his Psycomantheum; on MONDAY, Seatem , er The Prices of admission will be thus arranged :—Private Boxes (which will be obtainable at the principal Litraries end Mustsellers, and at the Box-office), 11.

THREE GALLANT SONS.—Lieut.-General the Hon. H. E. Butler is about . to erect a handsome mural tablet in Thomaatown Church, county Kilkenny, to the memory of his three gallant sons, Capt. H. T. Butler (55th Regt and Deputy-Assistant Adjutant-General, who was killed Inkerwann ; Capt. Charles G. Butler (86th Regt.), who served in Scinde, and who died of fever at Bombay in December last ; and to Capt. James Armar Thaler, of the Ceylon Rifles, killed at SiEstria, Whose intrepid daring in the successful defence of that fortress has been the theme of universal admiration. The tablet, 'just completed, by Gaffin, the sculptor, of the Quadrant, consists of slab of black marble, having a scroll of white marble, on which are inscribed the names and services of the sons of the gallant General. .The whole is sun mounted by military trophies, in which the swords of the three brothers are conspicuous objects. Within a laurel wreath are the names of the several places at which the gallant officers had distinguished themselves —namely, China, Alma, Inkermann, Scinde, Kaffirland, and Silistria. In the inscription to the young volunteer at Silistria honourable mention is made of "his gallant friend and brother officer," Major Nasmytb. PEMBROKE DOCKYARD.—It is understood that, as soon as the new huts are finished at Hobbs•point, Pembroke dock, the fortified barracks on the heights will be vacated by the Monmouthshire Militia, who will occupy a por tion of the wooden barracks, and, together with the other regiments of militia to be there assembled, will do the garrison duty. The fortified barracks are to be oc cupied by the Pembrokeshire Artillery Militia, which corps will send out bodies of men to occupy the various forts and posts now erected for the defence of the haven, but stilled unmanned. The reliefs will be monthly, and the several m artello towers are to be fully and properly garrisoned. The huts are progressing with the utmost expedition, and will soon be ready for occupation. Mme. Plessis will appear at the Francais in the early part of next month, in a new piece written for her debut, by the pen of Scribe. • , kt I „ ;~, ; ei _ , 6064 LON ON, TUESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 26, 1855. HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO FRANCE. BOULOGNE, Monday Night.—The Queen's visit to France and the Emperor Napoleon will have terminated before the foll Owing hastily written details of its closing scenes are in print. She embarks to-night at 11 o'clock on board the Royal yacht, and by 1 o'clock it is ex. petted that she will be on her way to o,borne. Thus has been happily concluded an event the magnitude of which it is impossible to exaggerate, which has been achieved without a singe drawback, and upon all the details connected with which not only the illustrious personages most directly concerned, but the population of two countries the most powerful and civilised in the world, have every reason to congratulate themselves. From the spectacle of such accord between Sovereigns who, being independent of each other, yet are proud to show their mutual friendship, the happiest auguries for the future may fairly be gathered. Those who are thus united by the bonds of personal intimacy will know how to guard the strength which it manifestly gives, and study to guard against disturbing an alliance which, begun 3n the grounds of interest and policy, has now received an enthusiastic confirmation from the inhabit ants both of Paris and London. It can no longer be doubted that the two nations have large sympathies in common,' powerful enough to control all adver4e in fluences, and to afford the best guarantees for the safety of Europe. The Queen's visit bas partaken even more than the Emperor's of a public character, and, great as was the enthusiasm with which he was welcomed in our metropalis, it was at least equalled, if not surpassed, by the feeling which has greeted her Majesty from all classes of Parisians.. This was convincingly demon strated to-day by the immense numbers in. which they turned out clog the route of the procession't6Witneas her departure. A week's stAy,during which she has constantly been seen driving in the streets, had in no sensible degree diminished the interest which her presence excited, and it must be among the highest consolations of Royalty for the cares which itinvolves to know that even among foreigners, who only know by repute the virtues which adorn our Sovereign, so much respect and 11,;mage are voluntarily accorded to her. It would really seem as if everything had tonsprred to make this viit 'all' that could be de sired, for even the weather has been. favourable to a de gree that could hardly be hopes for. To-day there was not a cloud in the sky, and the sun shone down upon the ceremony of the departure with :a fervour of bril liancy which left no portion of the general effect unde veloped. As on the occasion of her Majesty's arrival, the line of procession was kept by a military - force, the troops of the National Guard, according to custom, holding the right side, and those of -the regular army the left. The Garde de Paris and the Sergens de ville co-operated at all important points, and the best order and arrangements prevailed. The Emperor and his guests left St. Cloud for the Tuileries before 10 o'clock, and thence, at'half-past 11, proceeded in carriages to the terminus of the Strasburg Railway. The route followed WaA that by the Rue Castiglione, the Place Vendome, and the Rue de la Paix, into the Boulevards, and along them to the station. The ceremonial observed was of a much more formal character than that of the entry into Paris. The cortege, which was marshalled with the greatest care to produce a splendid scenic effect, pro ceeded at a foot pace for the whOle distance traversed, and the Imperial carriage conveying .his Majesty, the Queen, Prince Albert, arid the Princess.Royat—a mag nificent equipage in all its appointments—was drawn by eight horses., each of which had a running groom lead ing him by a gilded bridle. On either side rode Mar shal Magnan arid General Loewenstein. Another carriage with six hoNes, and nearly as splendid, con. veyed the Prince of Wales, Prince Napoleon, and _ _ two ladies. The suite followed in five other car riages, and in front and behind there was an escort of Guides. A few Cent Garden led the way, and behind them , were the Ofliciers d'Ordonnance. It was altogether a most 'stately and imposing procession, and the epectacle.which the Boulevards presented as it slowly swept through them, the drums beating and the trum pets sounding a flourish, the troops presenting arms, and the vast multitude on the. trottoirs shouting Vive la Reine !" was indescribably fine. The arrival at the sta tion was signalled to all Paris by a double salute fired in honour of the Queen, and then for the Emperor. There, both outside and within, decorations even more effective and splendid than on the occasion of her Ma jesty's arrival had been prepared. The initials " V.A.." interlaced in white flowers on a fresh bank of green leaves closed in the end of t!ie permanent way, the bal- conies were hung with velvet, the roof with streamers, and on the platform were assembled, within the gny range of elegantly-dressed ladies which bound it, a dis tinguished- assemblage of official personages who had come to take leave of her Majesty or to see her raf-Ay on her way. Among these were M. de Baroche, M. de Persigny; Lord Cowley, and the Attach of the Em bassy ; Count Walewski ; M. Pietri, Prefect of Police ; M. tlatpsniann, the Prefect of the Seine ;,Baron Rothe- chairrnmi' of the Northern Rail way: w and M. Petiet, chief engineer, and manager ; M. Perrier, Count de Segur, chairman ; Doc de Galliera, vice-chairman ; M. Sayi• and M. Roux, directors ; M. Bossange, secretary ; and MM.• Edwards, Sauvage, and Vinguer, engineers to the Strasburg Railway. Their Majesties were at once conducted to the state carriage, and the train, soon after 12 o'clock, took its departure amid loud cheers and the strains of "God rave the Queen." At all the stations on the way the neighbouring population were collected in dense crowds to — welcome — the illustrious travellers. Amiens was, however, the point of a special demonstra tion. There the stati:m was beautifully decorated, and a saloon had been prepared for her Majesty. The National Guard, the Infantry of •the Line, and Cuirassiers kept the platform, which was overlooked by a series of bal conies, filled with elegantly-dressed ladies. A salute of 21 guns welcomed the arrival of the train. Lieutenant- Colonel Duhamel, prefect of the department ; General Boyer, Monseigneur de Satin's, Bishop of Amiens, the sub-prefects, the Cour Imperial, and all the functionaries of the department were in attendance to receive their Majesties, who were greeted most enthusiastically. At Allbeville a party of Dragoons were drawn up with the National Guard to preserve order, but the sight of the Imperial carriage was too much for the latter, and they fairly broke their ranks, rushed forward, beating the ground wish their musket-butts, and shouting " Vive Ia Reine," " Vive l'Eaapereur," &c. It was five o'clock when the train reached Boulogne. and immediately after their arrival the Imperial and Royal party proceeded to review the troops now encamped on the heights. The review took place on the sands in front of the Imperial Pav•lion Hotel, and, like that in the Champ de Mars on Friday, consisted only of the inspection of the defile. ,the number of men assembled being from 45 to 50,000. This force, with the exception of a regi ment of Lancers, consisted entirely of infantry of" the line, there being no artillery present. The Emperor, Prince Albert, and Prince Napoleon were on horseback, attended by their equerries. Her Majesty and the other •members of the Royal family, with the suite, witnessed the spectacle from the carriages. The tide being out, and the sands tolerably dry, the troops were displayed to the greatest possible advantage, and looked superb. On the eastern or upper side of the sands were the Lancers, ex tended in one line. In another, parallel and of equal length, were formed some 15 regiments, in close column of contiguous battalions ; and at either end were masses of men brigaded together, whose serried ranks com pleted the third and fourth sides of this great quad rangle. Here, in the centre, after making the round of inspection, the Emperoi and his guests took up their position amid a grand flourish of drums and trum pet. The defile was soon over, but not until the set ting sun lighting up wi th splendour: so many succes sive forests of bayonets had left upon the mind of the spectator a most powerful impression. This became enhanced by the presence of the Royal squadron in the offing —a presence proclaimed in the thunders of a mag• nificent salute as the review closed. At its termination the Emperor took his guests to the Camp at Honvault, where from the heights they witnessed some practice with a new description of rocket. Thence they drove as far as the Camp at Ambleteuse, and night had fairly closed in before they returned to the Imperial Pavilion Hotel. The farewell dinner was laid with 30 covers, and while it was proceeding Bculogne was brilliantly illuminated. Exactly at 11 o'clock the embarkation was safely effected amid the roar of a salute from the fleet which shook the houses both at Folkstone and Dover. A wonderful display of fireworks accompanied the de parture, which thus took place without a single mishap or drawback. Indeed, looking back at all the arrange ments of this visit, there probably never was witnessed more successful management. Not one accident has oc curred, and the Prefect of Police, M. Pietri, has reason to congratulate himself upon the manner in which the newly-organised force under his control has acquitted it self under a very severe trial of its efficiency. It is not yet known to what extent the munificence of the Royal family has displayed itself in the shape of pre sents, but, no doubt, these have been liberally bestowed. We understand that a magnificent snuff-box has been presented to the Prefect of the Seine, and that M. Her voix, the chief of police for the Imperial household, whose activity and zealous exertions cannot be too hi g hly praised, has received a handsome diamond pin. Her Majesty is extremely popular among the Parisians, on account of her natural manners and her great affa bility. She has certainly on all public occasions ap peared highly gratified by the extraordinary attentions of her Imperial host, and we are assured that her private feelings are entirely in accordance with her bearing when all eyes have been upon her. The hasty manner in which, unavoidably, this great event has been chronicled has prevented us from recording several minor facts and incidents, which, ne vertheless, deserve a place in all contemporary records of an , occurrence so remarkable. For example, at St. Germain on Saturday the Queen visited the tomb of her ancestor James 11., and yesterday again she went to Neuilly in the afternoon, and there stood beside the un timely grave of the late Duke of Orleans.• What food for moralising do these two simple occurrences afford I Yet perhaps they are exceeded by a scene which took place this morning at St. Cloud, and produced a powerful impression on all who witnessed it. Whether by clever premeditation or fortunate accident, the Emperor there caught sight of a Voltigenr of the Imperial Guard, who had lost his leg before Sebastopol and had otherwise been severely wounded. The still suffering soldier was making his way forward on crutches when the Emperor advanced fo 'meet him, and, taking off the Cross of the Legion of Honour which he wore; transferred it to the poor fellow's breast. All who witnessed - the spectacle were much affected by it,--most of all the decore himself. Her Majesty is expectel to arrive at Osborne to-morrow about croon. • BOULOGNE, 11 15 P.M. The Queen has this moment embarked. Al! well. The scene was truly magnificent. (From the Constitutionnel.) Paris presents at this moment the most splendid and the most picturesque of spectacles—all lan guages are spoken here, all costumes borne ; the whole world is represented here under aspects at once the most varied and the most elevated. It would be the image of the tower of Bebel, if an admirable order did not preside over this universal fete of all nations of the globe fraternising in the bosom of the capital of France, where they have come to glorify industry, the progress of intelli gence and of civilisation. For eight days, above all, it is a marvellous picture, this fairy-like city, where there is no longer repose, nor silence ; this city, perpetually decorated with ensigns, where myriads of population succeed to myriads ' as upon the ocean waves follow waves ; where the noise and the movement of the crowd spread an in cessant life . everywhere ; where tastely every evening the blaze of illuminations, replacing the rays of the sun, seems to eternalise day by the sup pression of n'a 6 ht. Thus, under the active and in telligent impulse of Prince Napoleon, whom the Emperor charged with the care of presiding over the Exhibition of 1855, this magnificent enterprise realises, surpasses even, all the hopes which it had inspired, and an immense success crowns that great idea, now concentrated by one of the most characteristic events of contemporary history, the visit of the Queen of England. This success of the Exhibition of 1855 is glorious for France, which enjoys this triumph ; glorious for the Em peror; who conceived the thought of this splendid fete of Industry, and Art ; glorious also for the Prince who has known how to comprehend and carry into effect this conception of progress and civilisation, so as at once to make it one of the most beautiful, the most useful, and the most popular events of our epoch. The circum stances amidst which the Exhibition of 1855 is produced add moreover to the unexpected éclat of this pacific concourse of all the discoveries and all th a conquests of science, opened between all the nations of the earth, in the midst even of the pre occupations of a gigantic and distant war, and on the morrow of a loan of 750 millions, which will complete a sum of 1 milliard 500 millions devoted to the expenses of that war. On witnessing these signs, so numerous and so manifest, of public and private prosperity—on seeing all this gold which flows from thousands of hands to go and vivify every branch of national activity, who would ima gine that France is engiged in a formidable contest against a powerful nation ? Who should have a conception of the sacrifices and efforts which this contest exacts, on seeing this exaltation and this se renity of the populations, which rush with somuch enthusiasm and happiness from the thresholds of workshops and manufactories upon the passage of the Queen of England and the Emperor of the French ? Who should think it on perceiving them hasten with so much ardour to all the ceremonies, to all the solemnities, to all the fetes where they are able t 3 see these two august sovereigns of two great nations, long time haughty enemies, now generous allies, and return afterwards, happy and cal m, to their labour of every day, as if they had even derived front this spectacle fresh courage and renewed confidence? For some timepast the land of France is the blessed of God ! Everything succeeds here with the Emperor, everything succeeds with the people. Is it not because every thing combinesin her the genius of humanity ; is it not because she carries on her front the seal of civilisation ; is it not lastly because she matches at the head of nations, in the ways of democracy and equality, in the ways of progress and liberty, which are the paths of the future, that providence guides her steps and watches over his destinies? Whatever may be thought of monarchical forms, which are as the vestment of the empire, democracy and equality, progress and liberty, are at the foundation of her institutions. Democracy and equality, progress and liberty—behold the true character of the reign of the Napoleons. The masses divine it and feel it ; they divine and they feel that the Napoleons on the throne, are the people crowned in their per sons ; this is what explains their love for the em pire and for the Emperor." to extinguish the fire generated on board. They had some men wounded, one dangerously. The Cossack and Cruizer engaged another island, con nected with the main by a wooden bridge. The bridge was first destroyed with shot from these ships, and then they scoured the island, which was full of Russian soldiers of the line, with grape and canister shot, until not a Russian was visible. The destruction of life on this island was dreadful. The crew of the Cossack exacted a terrific retribution ' for the massacre off Hango Head. The French performed their part bravely, with gun and mortar vessels, and also from a sand-bag battery, which they erected on a rociy island in the course of the two nights preceding the bombardment ; it was within good range of the Russian batteries, and was mounted with three mortars, besides other guns of long range. All our mortar-guns are rendered totally useless ; some of them,,,indeed, were split to pieces. lam very confident that if we hart bombarded Cronstadt as we have Sweaborg, that, literally speaking, not a vestige of it would be left, for this reason, Sweaborg is by nature a place of great strength, as its fortifications are cut in the solid rock, and hard to get at ; whereas Cron stadt is solely a work of art that required much laborious care in its constrution, and consists to a very great extent of wood and other combustibles." —Oar/isle Journal. From a Sergeant of Marines on board the Hast ings :—" Our little -squadron went at it in right good earnest, with the gun and mortar boats of our allies opening such a tremendous fire that would rouse the peaceful inhabitants of your little town ; and in less than an hour, to our great joy, was the explosion of a magazine that seemed to shake the whole place. 'lt was such a report that caused our seamen and marines to work with more vigour. Explosion after explosion—fire after fire— was the order of the day, till night came on, when the destruction of that most formidable place, Sweaborg, was clear to all of us. We continued all night by di7isions—the place apparently in one mass of flames al' the following day—making good fire, good direction, and another tremendous ex plosion, which proved to us that we had not quite settled the job. We continued, however, till about. eleven at night, and another explosion, with huge masses of smoke and flame. It was indeed awfully grand. My dear brother—it was indeed a sight. I could have given the world had you been there. Not yet satisfied with this, we physicked them with rockets and shells, giving them abundant proof that we have some destructive instruments of war ; and more particularly the mortar and gun-boats— they are splendid. The Baltic must have them. Without them we can do nothing—with them we can do wonders. Sir Charles Napier is the practical man ; it was him that proposed them ; he could see their use ; and the opinion of nearly all the fleet is that he is the man to command them." NAVAL OPERATIONS IN THE BALTIC STOCKHOLM, Aug. 20.—Her Majesty's ship Des perate, 6, Capt. White, arrived on the morning of the 13th inst. at Faro Sound, reports that on the 10th inst. the above-named corvette and the screw block-ship Hawke, 60, Capt. Ommanney, were at tacked by 17 Russian gun- boats which came out of the harbour of Riga for that purpose. The action was kept up with great spirit, and lasted two hours, at the expiration of which the gun-boats were with drawn, some of them with considerable damage. On board the Hawke one man was severey wounded, and the Desperate received six cannon balls in her hull. On the afternoon of the same day the above-named two ships bombarded the fortifica tions of Riga. Later accounts from Faro Sound mention the arrival of the Hawke, which had also put in there to repair damages. In the accounts published of the bombardment of Sweaborg it is particularly mentioned that a large imperial Russian flag was seen flying on one of the buildings, but which was not hoisted on the second and third days. Private accounts received here from Helsingfors state that the building in question was the habitation of the Grand Duke Constantine, who had come down from St. Peters burg expressly to be present at the expected attack, and to excite the ardour of the Russian troops by - - his presence. The flag attracted the especial no- tic() of the attacking ships, and particularly served as a mark for the mortar vessels, in consequence of which the building was speedily reduced to a mass of ruins, but the Grand Duke escaped unhurt. From the same accounts, it ap pears that the navigation department on board the fleet was carried on with consummate skill and an extraordinary knowledge of the intricacies of the approaches, which reflects the highest credit on the masters of the different ships. The writer, who was an eye-witness of the whole affair, in describ ing the events, confesses that the Russians were taken completely by surprise on being attacked from a side, the channel to which had been con sidered always impracticable by their own pilots, and that they were, therefore, not prepared to see the hostile ships approach from that quarter. This explains also the hurried attempt to throw up a battery on the wooded island during the action, which was, however, successfully interrupted by a few wed-directed shells being thrown in by the de tached squadron sent for that purpose, the Rus sians abandoning the island with considerable loss. The writer describes the third explosion on the 9th instant as the great event of the day, which blew up the principa magazine of ammunition with a most fearful crash, scattering death and desola- tion far and wide. He says it lasted for fully three minutes. For some time aferwards a perfect still ness prevailed on board the attacking ship , , but shortly afterwards the deafening cheers of the Bri tish sailors were wafted across the water, and reached the ears of the garrison. On the 11th, at noon, the whole of the buildings in Sweaborg were one mass of flames, and all the attempts made to put out the fire were of no avail. SEBASTUPOL. The following letter,_ from the interior of Sebas topol, appears in the Vienna papers : " SEBASTOPOL, AUGUST 5. " As I write a heavy torrent of rain is sweeping past my door, for you are aware my mud habita tion has no windows ; the reverberating thunder keeps me on the qui vice ; I keep on fancying that messieurs les besiegers have something in the wind, but it is only the illusion of fancy ; the wrath of God evidently displeases them, for not a shot is to be heard ! To-day they have, relatively speaking, sent but a few bombs into the town ; this compa rative stillness seems strange to us all, for the ear had got used to the eternal booming of a thousand guns, and no one feels at ease during this repose, momentarily interrupted by the thunder and the rain. Spies and deserters bring us word that the enemy is preparing a bombardment, and that the French " Suyaroff" means after that to hazard a fresh storming attack. We have been long expecting this, and are ready at an hour's notice to meet the army with the sign of our holy cross, I saw the other day two French prisoners in Catherine Har bour, and they were being conveyed to the north side. One of them was a non-commissioned officer, the other a private, but both of them were gay young fellows. This never-failing cheerfulness of the French is a remarkable feature in their charac ter, and it looks as if they liked being prisoners. On the non-commissioned officer being asked whether he should not feel home-sick in Russia, he answered, Why should I? Inc Russia I shall learn Russian, and when the war is over shall carry back this language to my countrymen.' Ou the other hand the Engli3h prisoners are, for the most part, very gruff and monosyllabic. An English deserter was asked what induced him to desert, and he moodily answered, ' Fancy !' Another answered the same question, I got dull, and if I had not done so should have blown my brains out !' A copy of a Loudon newspaper was handed in the hospital to an Englishman, not severely wounded by-the-by, and after he had read it with deep attention, he turned suddenly round to the physician that happened to be stand ing near, and said in a low voice to him Can't you gire me some medicine that will finish me out of hand ?' The enemy's fleet continues in Kamiesh and Arrow Bays ; only a few liners and steamers are off the roads at a distance equal to twice the range of our fort guns. The ships are often exer cised at firing. Perhaps the enemy is again pre paring for some heroic feat, which it will not be so easy to accomplish against Sebastopol, girt with artillery. Since the second bombardment there is not a spot in this town that is not strewed with bombs and balls. It would be hard to find in the whole town a single house that has not suffered more or less. The glorious public library—l allude to the edifice—has likewise been extensively da maged, but the books, prints, maps, and book shelves are removed to a safe place. The news room, however, is crowded as usual, especially on post-day, with officers of all arms, who beingreli eve d d for a few hours from bastion duty, go the re ften baPPens the newspapers lying on the table.

The following is an extract from an officer's let ter, dated " Camp before Sebastopol, August 9, 1855 :" 46* * * The army is much healthier than we could have anticipated, though the weather has been excessively hot, especially at Balaklava, which is a perfect little oven. Thermometer yesterday was 88 deg. in the shade, but one day, a b ou t a fortnight since, I saw it 95 deg. in the shade. This is very trying to the constitution. My health, however, is better than it was a month or two ago. I hope the War Minister will take care of us in the winter. A great responsibility he will have to answer for, if we are not hutted, and our hospitals in the field are not as perfectas those of Our gallant Allies, who have their infirmariers, physi cians, surgeons, apothecaries, d7c., &c., in admir able working order. * * Should the officers who lead the men into action, and without whom they would be a mere armed mob, not receive a corresponding increase of pay to the men, serious evils m. st assuredly will take place. This forms our present engrossiugsubjectof conversation. If we are to be treated with positive injustice, indifference will take the place of zeal, and retirement from the service, in utter disgust, will become the general rule, not the exception, as at present. I believe the next grand attack will be made by the end of the month. lam going to the trenches this even ing, and have not time to add more." RUSSIAN DESPATCHES. A supplement to the I avatide Pulse of Aug. 18, received by extraordinary express, contains the fol- lowing :—_ -- NEWS FROM ASIATIC TUJRKEY. 111 a report of July 23, dated from the camp near the village of Tikme, Aide-de-Camp General Mou ravieff narrates the details of two reconnoitring expeditions happily executed on July 15 and July 21, by the flying detachments of Major-General Baklanoff and Colonel Kamkoff, commander of the combined regiment No. 2 of the Cossacks of the line. The object of these operations was to enclose inure than ever the entrenched camp of Kars, and to isolate the army of Anatolia, confined there, from the provinces, which it ought to defend, and from whence it could receive provisions. Major-General Baklanoff's detachment left the camp of Tikme on July 15, turned the eastern 'ide of Kars, and, showing itself on the north of the place, dispersed a party of the enemy's foragers, near the place where the Berdyk brook throws it self into the Kars Tchai. In this rencontre two Turkish officers and seven men were taken prisoners and seven Turks were killed. Our detachment debouching then upon the Ar daban route reached the village of Blijny-Djealous on the 16th of July, after a march of 50 versts, and on the 17th appeared upon the principal route leading from Kars to the sandjak of Ghel, where it took some prisoners. On the 18th Major-Gene ral B tklanoff rejoined the main body of our forces after exploring all the roads to the north of Kars to a cor.siderable distance, and spreading alarm in the neialibouring country without experiencing the least loss. Colonel Kamkoff obtained an equal success in his excursion upon the Ghel route, the only communi cation which the garrison of Kars has preserved with Erzeroutn. During this movement the elders of the wandering Kurdish tribes received our troops with bread and salt. Colonel Kamkoff, penetrat ing a great way in the parts little known of the sandjak of Ghel, compelled the enemy's convoys, who were pursuing this route, to disperse, and in terrupted every movement upon the route of Ghel, so especially important to the army of Anatolia. The straitened position of this latter army begins to show itself by desertion ; the soldiers take refuge not only in the neighbouring villages, but even in our camp. At Kars the price of bread has tripled in one month. TILE RUSSIAN ADVANCE ON ERZEROUM. The Presse d'Orient of Aug. 16 contains the fol lowing letter from a special correspondent at Tre bizond TREBIZOND, Aro. 7. Our anxiety continues ; we wait from hour to hour the news of some grave event. According to our last news from Erzeroum the Russians, as I announced to you, had crossed the Soghauli-Dagh. This has caused much astonish ment here, because the passes of the ridges of the Soghanli mountain are difficult, and can easily be defended by a small force. The troops at the dis posal of Mahommed Pacha at Erzeroum were suffi cient to stop the enemy at this point. The Rus sian brigade which reached the eastern declivities of Soghanli-Dagh did not attempt this passage alone ; it waited first for the brigade from Molla- S oleyman. This difficult position has then been crossed with out difficulty by the enemy. . . . It then advanced upon Keupri-Keni, five hours' march from Erzeroum, and the next day, August 3, to Hassan-Kaleh, three hours' march from the city. Everything tends to the belief at Erzeroum that the city will be very soon attacked. Mahommed Pacha has gone to meet the enemy. He has assem bled the troops, and has marched to meet the Rus sians at two leagues from Erzeroum, accompanied by all the Bashi-Bazouks already:arrived. Matters rest there ; a rencontre is imminent. The spirit of the soldiers is good, and unless some unforeseen acci dent occur the enemy will find that he has not done well to march to Erzeroum, and will encounter a serious resistance before the unfinished fortifica tions of the city. The population, as you may imagine, is in a state of great anxiety ; many of the inhabitants have left. ; some merchants have already arrived here. The English consul is preparing to with draw, and the archives of the consulate have been transferred for the present to Gumuch-Hane. The French consul, M. Castagne, will not come to Tre bizond ; it is said he will go to the south. All that we have here of ammunition, arms, and provisions is leaving incessantly for Erzeroum. WARNING TO PASSENGERS ON THE DANUBE. A British general officer lately accompanied his family on their way towards Vienna, in one of the beautifully fitted steamers on the American model. Beyond the first-class fares, a cabin of two beds was secured for the ladies at the regular price. Finding the first place dormi tory more redolent of garlic than pleased him, the gentle man asked whether he could have a cabin for that night ? The answer was, that all the regular cabins were let, but that the first machinist, being on duty, would give up his little cabin. The space of it was about 7 feet by 4i, and t his comliodious space was occupied by the passenger for just seven hours, after which he found it locked from within, as an unmistakeable hint that his tenancy was at an end. On inquiring what gratuity was usual, the answer was, that eighteen fl.,rins, money of conven tion-30s. sterling—wae the claim, as the tariff of the company only restrained its employers from letting their claims at a higher rate than that fixed for the regular cabins. The money was paid under protest, and a for mal complaint lodged in the proper quarter ; but what hope of redress against extortion has any class of Eng lishmen in Austria ? In answer to the plea that where there was no special pre-agreement, a moderate compen sation was all that should be expected, and not a maxi mum rate unknown to the suffering party, and that the price of a regular cabin for two persons, and for twice ' the distance, would have been twelve florins only ; the cheat was juqified on the grounds that the tariff was assumed to be publicly known (as if the Solons of the Danube Steam Navigation could make laws bind in, upon all the world), and further sanctioned k by the 6 assurance that the messenger might have d ept possession of the cabin, if he had chosen to thteeeno the proposed voyage ; and this in the teeth b only, and its tenant for the night f v o i r r com mencing facts, that the cabin was t a k entu fo a o r i t ly one er n io ig te h d t permission to the next morning !

The act (18 and 19 Viet. c, 79) provides that where a burial ground of a parish is closed or over crowded, the guardians or overseers may bury in a neigh bouring parish. Guardians and overseer s are empowered to enter into agreements with cemetery companies or burial boards for the burial of the poor. BOMBARDMENT OF SYV EABORGG. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM A WARRINGTON ENGINEER. To-clay (Thursday, the 9th of August) we have given the Russian bears hard and dry. At this time, 9 p.m., Sweaborg is partially on fire. I will as briefly as possible describe our ship's share in these transactions. First, early in the morning we up steam and went, in company with the Cossack and Arrogant, among some islands. We and the Arrogant grounded for a short time, but the slow speed we were going enabled us to get off with comparatively little troub:e. There was a body of infantry belonging to the enemy about 800 yards from us, under cover of a wood. We stopped about four, and then got orders to open fire. The affair was horrible—the whizzing of the rockets and shells quite stunning. An officer on board told me he watched the first shell from the Cossack. It fell amongst a party of , the enemy ; he thinks it killed and wounded 10. They scampered under cover, and had not the courage to fire a shot. In the meantime the fleet commenced operations. In the night the French had erected a bat tery of mortars on a rock. At a quarter to eight bang goes a large gun, as a signal I suppose, for immediately it was followed by all the mortar vessels which had been placed in position before. The Russians spiritedly returned the fire. Our gun-boats then steamed in, and two 60 gun-ships. They set fire to a building about 10 o'clock ; in half an hour after a magazine blew up. Attempts to describe it fully would be sure to fail ; but about seven this evening the fire got a firm hold of the place, and the heavens are now illuminated by it. We keep throwing a few shell in it, and it seems con stantly to increase. Our ship has thrown 175 shells to-day, beside shot and rockets. You may see the shell burst in the air, and the cannon shot plough up the water. There is a large white building on fire, supposed to be the governor's house. The worst for them is, that if once a fire is com menced, the shipping fire there so hotly that it is next to impossible to stop near it. Our range is longer than theirs. They must have lost a large number of men. To-night they fire very seldom. There is a considerable town, Selsingfors, about 5 miles from here. The admiral can harm it if he likes. Ido not know yet whether he will. There is a Russian liner about three miles away, under a large battery—it will be destroyed if not unmoored. I wish you were here and could see what is going on. I had quite forgot to mention that about 12 o'clock I was looking out of the ship, when sud denly I felt almost lifted off my feet 1?y, the windage of our own shot—a large cannon being fired just above me. lam in capital spirits.— Warrington Guardian. The following is an extract from a letter received from Mr. John William, C. G. Officer on board H.M.S. Edinburgh : " Nargen, off Revel, 13th August, 1855. " We commenced the bombardment on Thurs day the 9th inst., at 7.30 a.m. It was chiefly car ried on by the mortar and gun vessels, in all about 31 or 32 in number. The shells thrown were 13 inch diameter, those of the F rench 10-i nch ; dis tance from the batteries thr ee to fo ur thousand yards. The mortar vessels were mo ored with cables of 480 fathoms long, in and out, so as to enable them to haul out or in as circumstances re quired. By this means they baffled the Russian gunners. The gun-boats kept up steam, stood in within proper range, fired their bow guns, then rounded their sterns and fired the stern guns, stood out and re-loaded. There was most excel lent practice ; it was both rapid and precise. There were several dreadful explosions of magazines, and consequently hundreds of the Russians must have been blown into the air. There was an awful de struction in the vicinage of the arsenal and dockyard, in the latter of which several war ships of large di mensions were burned on the stocks. The conflagra tion was terrificly grand, and when we came away to-day the flames were still progressing. The boats from the fleet, 22 in number, went in on the two nights succeeding the bombardment, armed with 241 b. rockets, with which they plied the place, doing a vast amount of damage. Our captain went into action in our gun-boat, armed with a Lancas ter gun, the shots from which reached a three decker at the entrance of the harbour, but she was too far inside and under the cover of very heavy batteries to attempt to cut her out. During the time that our gun-boats and mortar vessels were engaged, two of our line - of - battle ships and one frigate attacked another battery 'on the opposite side of the island, but they sustained such a severe fire of red-hot shot from the enemy that they were obliged to haul off different times •NEIv.;PA.VE.#I DANCBIAN PRINTIP - ATM ( .1.4 "Iv Z4 l 43 ; 4 4 ELTaAREST, Aug. 14.—As the Austrian occupi ra and the administration of Prince Stirbey continue tilAl press heavily on this land, the status quo is preserved jib all its features, and, as a consequence, the evil creases in all its features every day. In Moldavia, th• Austrian occupation keeps up the Russian 'regime in all its rigour ; nevertheless, the situation of this Princi• pality is—l can scarcely say better—but at least less miserable than that of Wallachia. Prince Ghiske, though excessively timid when doing good is the (pets tion, is nevertheless not quite so hearty as his colleague Prince Stirbey in oppressing and crushing the country which he governs. The press in Moldavia is in the enjoyment of a certain degree of liberty. In Wallachia it has always been kept down, and many measure which Prince Ghiska has just taken justify us in entertaining a belief that liberty of action rather than sincerity of intention is what the Princre required in order to effect the amelioration a sks condition of his subjects. He has made to the Societe du Credit Mobilier an offer of the most advan tageous kind—perhaps, alas ! too advantageous when the interests of Moldavia are taken into consideration— for the construction of a railroad, which, taking Galstz • as its point de depart, will meet at Tchernowits, on the Buscovina, the Austrian Railway. The wealthy com pany at Paris accepted eagerly the Prince's offer, and sent to Jassy their engineer, M. Bonaut, who is now oa the point of concluding an agreement with the Molda vian Government. Prince Ghiska, at the same time, has acted in a patriotic manner by proposing to Prince Stir bey to join him in assuring an annual income to the Roumanee Chappel, which the worthy and courageous Routnanee prelate, the Archtmandrite Josaphat Snago• vano, founded two years ago in Paris, in, which city the Greek ritual had up to that time no other place of celebration than the Russian embassy. But an other which Prince Ghiska has lately taken is of the greatest importance, and relates to the seculati• cation of two-thirds of the revenues of the convents. This propo,ition was unanimously adopted by the administrative council of Moldavia. The prince entrusted his counsellors, Negri and Raletti, with the reission of conveying to Constantinople the account of the important alteration which he has just introduced into Moldavia. In this account, of which I have re ceived a copy, there occur these remarkable words :-- "We have ben obliged to take these measures for the purpose of increasing the resources of our treasary, and putting it into a condition to meet the extraordinary ex• penses which are incurred by the Principality on count of its being occupied by a foreign army ; for the inhabitants of Moldavia can only by the greatest exer tions succeed in supporting the burdens which now press upon them, an. - 1 our conscience will not permit us to oppress them with new burdens." Messieurs Negri and Raletti, before proceeding to Constantinople, came to Bucharest, with the expectation that Prince Stirbey would adopt also the reform which he had just introduced into Moldavia, and that he would allow two of his ministers to join them in the same mission. After hesitating a long while, Prince Stirbey and his administrative council discovered a middle term, and decided upon the secularisation of a fourth only of the revenue of the convents of Wallachia, and this only for a limited space of time, for four yeare. But the Prince, as though he distrusted his own Ministers, refused to send representatives to Constanti nople, in the same manner as he had previously refused to send representatives to Vienna. The Moldavian minis ters, concluding therefore that their advice would be lost upon Prince Stirbey, thought fit to depart for their destination alone. It appears that the mission of Mee sieurs Negri and Raletti has been in some degree occa sioned by a letter from Fuad Pacha' to Prince Ghiska. This letter owed its origin to a petition from the Jews of Moldavia to the Porte. It has been asserted that the minister for foreign affairs in Turkey, overstepping the limits of the rights of sovereignty of the Ports, treated in his letter of matters concerning the interior legislation t,f the Principalities. As far as Prince Stirbey is concerned, he is too much occupied with his own interests, which are not tho roughly coincident with the interests of Wallachia, to have much time to busy himself with the affairs of the province. His rapacity is excited and increased by the p-ecariousness of the situation in which he is placed. He turns this to profit; for, thinking every-day that he is approaching the termination of his reign, he endea vours to add to his stores of money with the greediness of a man just about to fly, and eager to seize everything that lies in his way. However, the Prince is not going yet. His provisional reign has already lasted a year, in spite of the incessant complaints of the inhabitants —in spite of the reiterated remonstrances of the resi dent consuls at Bucharest —in spite even of- the Porte itself, whose commissary, Dervish Paeha, in a report on an inquiry into the administration of Prince Stirbey, convicted the Prince of a multitude of acts of malversa tion, and accused him even of an attempt to purchase silence by bribes. The only support of the Prince is the protection of Austria ; and since this protection is suffi ciently powerful to preserve him in place against the efforts of all, he cares fg r nothing else. More than this, not only does he give himself no trouble about the Porte and its allies, but he throws so much zeal into his devo tion to his powerful protector that he astounds General Caronini himself. For every service that is required of him he gives two. The result of this may be antici pated by the consideration of what has lately taken place. Austria has granted to the Prince a favour which even few sovereign powers have obtained. She has just con ferred on one of his regiments the name of Elizabeth- Stirbey. If the Prince succeeds in making of Wallas chia an Austrian possession, he will scarcely consider that he has acquitted himself thoroughly of his debt to his prot etor. A short time back the Prince dismissed his favourite prefect of police, M. Rodolph Rossetti. As an excuse for the dismissal, and to conciliate public *pinion, reports were circulated with respect to a deficit of four thousand Austrian ducats, which the ex-prefect had left in the treasury of the prefecture. In addition to this the re ports mentioned the complaint lodged against M. Ros setti by the Prussian Consul, for striking one of his pro teges. All the world, however, knows that the appro priation of public money is a sine qua non for a Walla chian 'public functionary, and that M. Rossetti was accustomed daily to indulge in acts of brutality, much more disgraceful than those of which he is now accused. The true reason which induced the Prince to sacrifice M. Rissetti is that the hackney coachman whom he struck was a Russian subject, and that, In addition to this, Austria did not wish that functionary to remain in his situation any longer. Austria wanted a man of its own choice in the police. This choice fell upon M. Demetrius Gregoire Ghiska, who —to do him justice exercises something more even than zeal to merit the confidence of which he is the object. His office is rather in the antechambers of Generals Coronini and Popovitsch, than in the Pre fecture de Police. However, he will have some trouble in satisfying their excellencies, for the Roumanees whom 11 it was thought possible to rob because th e y ;c1 been disarmed, made use of the first log of wood that came in their way to defend their lives and their possessions against the nocturnal expeditions of the Austrian plan• ilerers. Armed with their large clubs, they have several times succeeded in forcing their ferocious conquerors to leave arms, baggage, and even their wounded, behind them, and to take flinht after a fashion truly Austrian— bare-beaded and crying for mercy. Now Wallachia is so well supplied with wood, that if the inhabitants are to be deprived cf these terrible arms, which they have wielded with so much success , Count Cor on i n i an d his lieutenant of police must set fire to the Whole country. Prince Stirbey has just received an order from the cabinet of Vienna to establi,l, with the greatest de spatch, telegraphic lines throughout the :erincipalities. For some days, therefore. he has been exclusively °acne pied in the execution of this order. It is believed here that these telegraphs are to be at the service of Austria, if that power takes in the Principalities a position hostile to the allied powers. The fact is, that it would be im possible to say what other inteeest Austria can have in covering the soil of Wallachia with electric lines. The single good thing I have to acquaint you with is, that the harvest this year has been most abundant. Unhappily, the inhabitants have to regret the time that they have spent in getting it in, for exportation is forbidden. Austria gave out that it was about to send its vessels to watch over the free navigation of th e e Lower Danube, only for the purpose of preVenting Allies from sending their own vessels to is impossible to conceive a more unfortunate Id of the Danube. In fact, if there were i b f so much that of entrusting Austria with the police of t e h t e . ea m er oula ob stacle, Austria would create one itself, th an ieitinteres of mio tedinophreswaieh preserving its ex elueive monopoly of the produce ron, and a corps d'ar,nee into the p and nothing F r l a t n cies a believedre soon bconfidentlysend h t e o r thate rsruiia aa E_ .st n n) e g ,a l * a l i n s d ug uo a a n wd ti .. v e of t b h e a believed immense s seri ously that the and renders them unap. iesir, done. mon ths and One mightn years a m a s e surrounds the Principalities,rpaaffissirmng w th a at a a y, mastical circle e found in the sources which are to b Princip a li t i es, p r evented from entering them by the feat. proachable to tAhelliAesl c e a s n , cannot b fo e r ig i n t orant os that u t st e r y i a. a re_ Daily News. ocFalLamiPi:y.—: Y I e t s t seemse r d a y , - snow GREAT ow ing fearful a o r s f s u l advices were received at .
