GRAND NATIONAL DEMONSTRATION, for the Benefit of the Wounded Soldiers, the Widows and Orphans of those who nobly tell at the TAKING OF SEBASTOPOL. " England expects every man to do his duty." In a few short days that shout of victory which rises from the united heart of England will have passed away, bat, before it has gassed, the public ought to have some opportunity of unmistakeably .xpressing the lively sentiments of gratitude with which they are Impressed by the daring acts of valour, the brilliant exploits, and the great success of our brethren in arms. Patriotism suggests thi;, " iiiiiiCedemaads it, sympathy requires it, and all point to the propriety of devoting a day on which all classes, from 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, when the amount of the whole of the admissions wi'l be appropriated to the creation of a Crentarne 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 14 desirous to unite all available talent and attraction, he will feel much obliced 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.

It would have been impossible to have selected a more felicitous opportunity for a well-merited compliment to a Crimean hero, on his return home from the scene of his arduous labours, than that which occurred in the entertainment given by the inhabitants of Elgia to Lieutenant-General Sir GEORGE BROWN on Monday last. Just as the people congregated together, to afford a cordial welcome to the gallant veteran, the joyous tidings of the fall of Sebastopol was announced. It was ascertained, beyond the possibility of doubt, that the work in which the expected guest bad enacted so prominent a part had been fully accomplished, that the recompence of the perils and labours which he had endured in his country's cause had at length been realised. The blood which he had himself so freely yielded, and which he had seen so prodigally poured forth by his gallant comrades, had not been shed in vain, and England wa s about to reap the rich fruits of her children's exploits. It was, indeed, a glorious ovation—a moment that might have recompensed years cf painful toil and unhesitating self-devotion. Sir GEORGE BROWN, after a varied and brilliant career, found himself once more at the place of his birth saw himself surrounded by those who felt that they shared in the laurels which he bad so nobly earned. Many of his elder hosts " minded the Provost's son," with whom they had associated in the days of boyhood, who was the daring leader of their juvenile sports, and early displayed the qualities by means whereof he had subsequently acquired fame and fortune. He, too, must h ave felt no ordinary pride and gratification at the, well•merited tribute bestowed by those from whom it was most acceptable. In returning thanks for the kindly reception, the veteran entered into the history of the cam paign in which he bad played a leading part, and whereof he might truly have said— " Quoram pars magna He pointed out the reasons of the various steps that had been taken, and gained additional credit for himself by the ability and zeal which he dis played in the defence of his departed Commander. He explained the reasons for the inactivity at Varna, which had been so severely criticised, and declared that the presence of the troops at Varna was the safeguard of Silistria, the real cause which rendered the obstinate defence by the garrison, effectual. He then alluded to the objec tions raised on account of the late period at which the expedition to the Crimea was organised. This was in a great degree occasioned by the difficulty in procuring the means of landing on the enemy's soil. They had to "improvise" the necessary appliances, and it was to the indomitable energy of those on the spot that we are indebted for the very successful landing at Old Fort, and the subsequent triumphs of the War. The Battle of the Alma required no apology. Every one felt that Lord RAGLAN was more than justified in so promptly " taking the bull by th e horns "—that it constituted his best title to the substantial rewards which he himself did not live to receive, but which the gratitude of his country bestowed on his widow and the heir to his title. The subseptent delay in following up the bril liant victory was harder to excuse. But the guest, with a chivalrous desire to vindicate the houoar o f big leader, raad.e a strong defence for doubtful strategy. He declared that we should "have had one army to carry on the siege, and another to keep off the enemy !" Although we cannot yield an unhesitating assent to this portion of his argument, we are not by any means disposed to criticise it severely. The great object has been triumphantly accomplished, and its re sults will be the more decisive on account of the protracted defence and the skill and energy dis played by the Russians, who melted all their re sources in the Sebastopol crucible. Sir GEORGE, with commendable modesty, re frained from touching on Inkerman—or the sol diers' battle—in which he achieved the greatest glory. There he displayed the highest qualities of an English General ; and although his broken health prevented him from witnessing the com pletion of his labours, his name will ever be asso ciated with the glorious campaign in the Crimea, the fall of Sebastopol, and the destruction of the Russian feet in the Euxine. Our Imperial Ally has already recognised the brilliant exploit of his General in the Crimea. He has paid the best compliment to the glorious achievement of his valiant troops by the promotion of their Commander. The Field-Marshal's baton has been most wisely and gracefully conferred on the brave PELISSIER, and every soldier who participated in the capture of the Malakhoff, and the subsequent fall of Sebastopol, in like manner, shares in the honour bestowed on the representative of the French Army. Why has not a similar distinction been be stowed on General SimrsoN ? Surely he has as well merited the favour as Lord RAGLAN, to whom it was bestowed for not taking the Russian ;Stronghold, or rather for that which was em phatically the soldiers' battle—the victory at lnkerman—which was certainly due to the stub born endurance of our men, the inflexible resolution of those composing the " thin red line," which no effort of the enemy could break, or even cause fora moment to' bend, rather than to the skill or judgment of the Commanders. For that Lord RAGLAN was made a Field-Mar shal—for that a pension was conferred on the successor to his title, and on his widow, when he was himself, by the dispensation of PROVIDENCE, placed beyond the reach of earthly honours and rewards ! We do not complain of the recompense, but we repeat, why should not General SIMPSON receive a similar testimony of the approbation of his QUEEN and country for completing the course on which he had only entered ? Sebastopol has fallen ! One of the main objects of the War has been accomplished. Russia has no longer a fleet in the Euxine, or a stronghold to shelter vessels that may hereafter be built. Her power has thus been materially diminished, but not irretrievably so, and it is essential that her pride shall have a further fall, that her humilia tion and discomfiture should be rendered wore signal. The Crimean Army must share the fate of the Black Sea Fleet, or at least, must capitulate, and obtain terms from the mercy of their victors. The game is now in our own bands, and it must be duly followed up. We have already explaiked the vast importance of a movement either from Eupa toria or the Tcheterlik, by which the Russians would be placed between two fires, and regularly caught in an inextricable trap. In addidon to the foregoing, the transmission of a corps to Aloushta, would entirely surround them, and render escape impossible. A glance at the map will show the vast importance of such operations, how thoroughly they would command every possible route on which the retreating army can possibly enter. The skill of the generals may now be best displayed in ob taining the most valuable fruits from the good seed sown at Sebastopol. The first act of the sanguinary drama is concluded, and the national plaudits and more substantial rewards should be bestowed on the daring actors. But more remains to he done, and we may yet have a no less exciting scene in the conclusion of our toils and perils. The cost which we have paid for our acquisition and its actual value may be judged from the facts just announced in the French capital, viz., that— the number of Generals now said to be killed during the assault on Sebastopol are five, besides ten superior officers. It is also affirmed that Generals MACMAHON and Tnocnu have died of their wounds, and that General BOW:MT was killed. The names of Generals Du Lac and ST. PAUL are also mentioned among the casualties, and that not less than 1,200 guns of large calibre have been found by the Allies at Sebastopol. The speech of the Duke of ARGYLL at the Glasgow Meet ing of the British Association last evening is at once an honourable and a beneficial achievement. No intelligent individual but must rise from the perusal of it with mingled feelings of admiration and pleasure—admiration at, the progress and useful results of Science during the last fifteen years, and pleasure that the claims and objects' of Science should be so eloquently and judiciously vindicated and defined, and the pre judices obstructing its progress so successfully assailed by one comparatively so young, and yet occupying so high and influential a position in society as the Duke. And if to this source of pleasure we add the satisfaction of an enlarged conception of the wonderful works by which we are surrounded, and of the extent of the revela tions made, and likely to be made, by the con tinuous efforts of human intelligence, we by no means pass the boundaries of truth. It is many a long day since a speech so suggestive, charac terised by so profound and reverent a philosophy, and so well calculated to advance the interests of Science and truth generally, was delivered. It is by no means our intention to analyse it, or to notice in detail its various points. The reader will peruse for himself his Grace's exposi tion and illustrations of the dependence of the arts upon the advance of Science, and of the pro gress made in its various departments since since the last meeting of the s sympathise . without an interveningexpressciohnasnnOlf with the noble speaker in his regret for the losses Science has expc. rienced in the death of some of her most gifted sons during that period, and ponder, with par donable pride, over the distinguished suc cesses and indomitable enterprise of those whom they• have left behind, and by which every class of the community has been so signally benefitted. !(or will any r emar k s of u to appre ciate o t r h s bece q ulariemoi f r required t Science ie o n c e e n enable on le bhimdtlly Governmental assist ance of a pecuniary nature, as defined and urged by the Noble Duke. To the remainder of the speech, however, we feel justified in drawing his particular attention. The Noble President, it will be seen, is of opinion that the advancement of Science mainly depends on securing for it a better and more ac knowledged place in the education of the young ; and, in accordance with this view, suggests the aid of the Privy Council in connection with the schools under its oversight. That such a pro cedure would tend to the advancement of Science there can be no doubt, but hardly less important results than this may be anticipated. It would, as his GraCe remarks, be a means of mental, train ing, and an instrument for the highest purposes of education, if taught in an enlightened and re verent spirit. The vast extent arci grandeur of the field in which Science exerts her energies can hardly be opened out, however imperfectly as to extent, to the youthful mind without enlarging its capacity, disposing it to active inquiry, and pre paring it for the actual business of life. Indeed one branch of knowledge is so dependent on an other that to be ignorant of one is to be im peded in pursuit of another. By all means, then, we say, let the suggestion be carried out, and, if further reasons be required, the concluding por tion of this admirable address will supply them. BOMBARDMENT AND DESTRUCTION OF SWEABO.RG. We hear from an English merchant at Elsineur, who has received letters from Russian merchants at Helsing fors, that the loss sustained by the Russians in the late bombardment of Sweaborg is something enormous, and beyond anything the public despatches would lead one to suppose. Thi) three-deck and two-deck ships which were moored across the passages were so severely injured that they have since sunk. Fifteen gun-boats were destroyed by our shells and red-hot shot. The third explosion which did so much damage was a magazine of 80 tons of powder ; it killed 700 men, and destroyed in a great measure the principal fortifica tions, and, in fact, scattered destruction in every di rection as it communicated to the shell-magazines along the batteries. All the winter stores of provisions IA e , e completely de stroyed, and, as ww first supposed, everything that could burn is most effectually consumed. The Russians admit a loss-of 2,500 men, and, consi dering that not a soul is allowed to pass from Helsing fors to Sweaborg, and only men in high authority allowed to leave Sweaborg, we may imagine their losses are much greater than they acknowledge to. This is a heavy blow, and if the Government are active this win ter in preparing suitable gun and mortar boats, with plenty of spare mortars, Cronstadt, Revel, &0., will be similarly treated next year. COUNT NESSELRODE'S LAST CIRCULAR, The Frankfort correspondent of the Indepen dance Belge gives the following as a full analysis of the last Russian circular. It was addressed by Count Nesselrode, under date of 16th June, to Prince Gortschakoff (Russian Ambassador at Vienna), in reply to the communications made to the Governments of Europe, and consequently to the Imperial Cabinet of St. Petersburg, by the Austrian Government, after the rupture of the Vienna Conferences : " The despatch refers to the communications of Count Esterhazy, Austrian Envoy at St. Petersburg, which consist of two despatches ; the first relates to the cir cumstances which led to the rupture of the Vienna ne gotiations ; the second defines the actual position of Austria. The expose of Count Buol did not require any reply from Russia ; nevertheless, to satisfy the wish ver bally expressed by Count Esterhazy to know the im pression made by his communications, the present de spatch undertakes to embody the reflections which the Emperor of Russia ordered Count Nesselrode to corn municate to Prince Gortschakoff to serve as a rule for his language. "The actual attitude of Austria confirms the convic tion of the Emperor of Russia, founded upon assur ances received directly by Prince Gortschakoff from his Majesty the Emperor of Austria. It is a moral certainty that the causes of disagreement and com plication are set aside in a manner to assure the maintenance of the pacific relations between the two countries. To characterise the position distinctly taken (nettement prise) by Austria, the despatch quotes Count Buol's despatch in which it is stated that the Emperor of Austria does not even admit the chance of a provocation which might force it to abandon that atti tude. Russia approves of this. She testifies to the complete unanimity in the sentiments of the two mo narchs as regards the conservation and consolidation of the direct relations of good understanding and accord ance between the two nations. In this moral convic tion Central Europe will be safe from the vicissitudes of the struggle which the Western Powers prolong with an implacableness which did not even diminish during the Vienna deliberations. "These hostile dispositions of the Cabinets of Paris and of London necessarily led to the failure of the at tempt at paciEcation. On this point Russia shares the sentiments of regret of Austria, and appreciates the jus• tics with which Count J3uol, in his despatch of the 10th June, declares on whom the resp ons ibility o f t h e rupture of the Conferences must fall. Count Nesselrode dwells on this point, that Count Buol has rendered full justice to the acts of Prince G-ortschakoff. In fact, Count Buol said in his despatch, just quoted, that the efforts of Austria failed in consequence of the precise instruc tions of the Plenipotentiaries of France and England. " Those of Russia, said Count Buol (we are too just not to admit it, even if they bad been willing to enter into a deeper examination of our proposals), were para lysed by the unconciliatory manifestations of the other members of the conference. "That judgment of the causes which led to the rupture of the negotiations agrees with that of Russia. It also results therefrom that any new steps taken by Russia to overcome the obstacles which the Cabinets of Paris and of London oppose to a pacific arrangement would be fruitless. And each proof of a conciliatory dispo sition on the part of Russia would only embolden and increase the exactions of the Maratime Powers. The truth that peace is only possible if France and England will ovally concur in it was well felt by the Cabinet of - Vienna, which, in the despatch of the 10th of June, de plores that the interpretation of the principles which seemed just and equitable to Austria should have become the signal for the abrupt interruption of the deliberations, and that that circumstance prevents actually the prac tical development of the idea which emanated from Aus tria. Count Buol added, that the Cabinet of Vienna is too just in this slate of things to demand from any one whomsoever a precise engagement on the subject, and that he understands that the moment must be awaited when all the belligerent Powers will meet equally dis posed to come to a serious understanding. " Count Nesselrode says that this appreciation of the situation agrees entirely with his own. This renders it unnecessary for him to examine the contested points. He adjourns such examination to the period when the Western Powers shall manifest a disposi tion, to quote Count Buol's words, favourable to a serious understanding. Moreover, Austria is tho roughly acquainted with the idea which presided over the instructions of the .Russian Plenipotentiary ; this idea, which belonged in principle to the late Empe• ror Nicholas, traced the line followed by the actual Emperor. The fair guarantees as interpreted by Rus sia continue to form the basis upon which a general pacification may be founded. The first two have, ac cording to Russian views, been acquired to the work of peace. The engagement taken in this respect, and which results from a mutual agreement previously established, as regards those guarantees, between the interested parties, will remain in force as long as Austria and Ger many take no part in the war. "As regards the third guarantee, Russia, pointing out again that the rupture of the negotiations is due to the Western Powers, reserves her liberty of decision. Like Austria, she will wait until those Powers, whose intentions Russia cannot prejudge, shall show themselves favourable to a serious and loyal understanding. As regards the fourth guarantee, Russia counts upon the union of the efforts of the two Imperial Courts to bring this grave question of a general interest. to a large and efficacious solution, as stated in Count Buol's despatch. "But Russia foresees difficulties which this solution may present. The last Parliamentary debates have given it the proof of the repugnance of the parties interested (the Ottomon Porte) to touch upon this point of dis cussion. Hence also the refusal of the plenipoten tiaries of France and England to examine confidenti ally this question as proposed by Prince Gortschakoff, after the sixth conference, until the expected replies had been received. The despatch expresses Russia's conviction that, even should an agreement have been come to respecting the revision of the treaty of 1844, the fourth guarantee would have off-red new obstacles. As long as the Western Powers, the hostile intentions of which the Russian despatch qualifies as indicated above, persevere in this line opposed to the interest of a general pacification, the Cabinet of St. Petersburg must renounce the hope of exercising any influence in their policy which is beyond the limits of any sound reasons of State. Agreeing with the opinion of the Court of Austria she will await the favourable moment to resume a negotiation so abruptly broken off to-day by the Maritime Powers." The Ducheos of Gnrdon arrived in town early in the week from Huntly Lodge, N. 8., and has since gone on a tour in Germany for a few months. The Earl and Countess of Durham are staying at Lambton Castle, and will reside there until the end of the autumn, during which the noble earl and countess will receive a select circle of relatives. The Earl of Scarborough has, during the week, enter tained a select circle offriends, at his seat, near Don caster. Viscount and Viscountess Palmerston left town yes terday, for Melbourne Hall, Derbyshire, the ancient family seat of her ladyship's ancestors. The stay of the noble Premier and her ladyship will be of very brief duration. The Right Hon. the Speaker of the House of Com mons, after a tour of visits in the north, passed through town on Wednesday, for his seat in Hampshire. Sir Joseph and Lady Bailey passed through town this week, en route to Wales, from the German Spas, where, we are happy to hear, the hon. member has derived great benefit from the waters. Lord and Lady Foley, and the Hon. Adelaide Foley, have been among the guests of the Duke and Duchess of Ncrfolk, at Glossop, Derbyshire.

THE FRENCH LOSSES. PARIS, FRIDAY. The lifoniteur publishes the following : " General Pelissier, by a despatch dated Sebas topol, Sept. 11, informs the Minister of War that 4,500 wounded, of whom 240 are officers, have entered the ambulances. "As to the number of dead en the field of battle it has not been possible as yet to number them with certainty ; but in the opinion of the Commandant it does not surpass the usual corre sponding figure—that is, one-third of the number of wounded." The number of French Generals, now said to be killed during the assault on Sebastopol, amounts to.five, besides 10 superior officers. It was also affirmed in Paris yesterday that Generals Mao- Mahon and Trochu have died of their wounds, and that General Bosquet was killed. The names of Generals Du Lac and St. Paul are also men tioned amongst the casualties. No less than 1,200 guns, of large calibre, have been found by the Allies in Sebastopol. ST. PETERSBURG, SEPT. 9. Aide-de-camp General Bibikoff has been dis missed from the post of Minister of the Interior. Sergius Stephanowitch Lanskoy, acting privy coun cillor and a member of the department of civil affairs, is appointed in his stead. BERLIN, SEPT. 13. Telegraphic accounts from St. Petersburg in form us that the Czar intends leaving on the 13th inst. for Warsaw. He will be attended by Count Nesselrode, and it is thought here will arrange an interview with the King of Prussia. COPENHAGEN, SEPT. 11. The Landsthing has adopted by a great majo rity, after a first reading, the proposition relative to the carrying out the constitution of Aug. 29. MADRID, SEPT. 12. It is said that M. Salamanca has sold to Messrs. Rothschild the Almanza railway. The Court is to return to Madrid on the 20th. The health of the Duke de la Victoria (Espa,rtero) is re-established. FRANCE. ' PARIS, THURSDAY EVENING, 6 O'CLOCK. It is thought that the Russians will have made an attempt to redeem their defeat by again attack ing us, and it is rumoured to-day that the Govern ment was in expectation of the news of a great battle. During the assault the Russian artillery men were killed at their guns, but is affirmed that with that exception a panic took complete posses sion of the army at the appearance of the allies in the Malakhoff Tower. Their hasty retreat was occasioned by their fear that we should fire on the bridge and take them prisoners. The Itioniteur has the following on the fall of Sebastopol : " The interversion which took place in the order in which the last despatches from tLe East arrived, the obligatory brevity of those despatches, and the prodigious rapidity with which the events they an nounced succeeded each other, caused a sentiment of uncertainty and surprise which, perhaps, did not allow the decisive importance of the victory gained by the allied armies to be at once appreciated. The full extent of this triumph, laboriously prepared during a whole year, and gloriously achieved by an heroic and supreme &fort; has now been generally understood. After so long an expectation, the news of the denouement of the conflict was so sudden and so exciting that it did not leave public opinion the necessary calm to estimate clearly the acts ac complished, and to measure their bearing and im portance. These acts are immense, and may be summed up in two words—the fall of Sebastopol, and the destruction of the Russian fleet. On the Bth September, at midday, the signal for the as sault was given ; a few instants after the allies were masters of the Malakhoff, and by the even ing the besieged, despairing of being able to pro long resistance iff the other defences of the place, abandoned them all at the same time, and hastily evacuated Sebastopol, in order to place an arm of the sea between our troops and them. On the 9th, at three o'clock in the morning, the whole town presented a vast conflagration, and such of the Russian vessels as had been spared by our shells disappeared beneath the waters of the roadstead, sunk by the enemy themselves. [Then follows the despatch which therMinister of War received from Gen. Pelissier, which we pub lished yesterday.] The Te Deuin has been celebrated with great effect. The Archbishop, addressing the Emperor, said : " Sire,—The national joy is increased by the thought that Heaven after all these triumphs prepares for you in addition domestic joys, which will be so much more delightful to yoar heart as they will be also for the pub lic good." The following is the decree of the Emperor ap pointing Gen. Pelissier a Marshal of France : "Napoleon, by the grace of God and the will of the French people. "Taking into consideration the eminent services ren dered by General Pelissier, especially in the Crimea while commanding our army in the East, we decree as follows : " Aimable Jean Jacques Pelissier, general of divi sion, is raised to the rank of a Marshal of France. "Dated St. Cloud, Sept. 12, 1855. _ " NAPOLEON." The Minister of the Interior has addressed the 'ollowing circular to the Prefects : " Paris, 12th Sept. " Monsieur le Prefdt—The indomitable courage of our soldiers and that of our Allies have just achieved a brilliant triumph. After three battles, which were in fact three victories ; after the gigantic efforts of a siege unexampled in military annals, Sebastopol, its port, its arsenals, and its materiel are in our hands. The power ful fleet which recently dominated the Black Sea, and which caused the disaster of Sinope, exists no more ! For this immense success the Emperor has determined to offer up a solemn thanksgiving to God, who dis poses of the fate of armies. On Sunday, the 16th, acoordingly, a Te Deurn will be chanted in all the de partments of the Empire. You will, therefore, concert with the ecclesiastical authorities, and with the civil and military authorities, in order to give to the cere mony an eclat which shall equal the grandeur of our victory. You will also authorise such public rejoicings as the patriotism of the populations may improvise. The country associating itself, as always, to the senti ments of the Emperor, will celebrate with enthusiasm the heroism of our soldiers, and the new glory which they have added to the old glory of France.—Receive, &c., "BILLAULT." The Minister of Public Instruction has addressed the following to the Bishops : "Paris, 12th Sept. " Monseigneur,—The flag of France floats over the ruins of Sebastopol. The difficulties which hitherto checked our soldiers have only served to show to the world that their constancy is equal to their cou rage, and that they know how to merit victory by their virtues. Valiantly seconded by the forces of our Allies, they have strengthened the equilibrium of Europe by assuring the liberty of the East. The Em peror, raising his thoughts towards the Sovere;gn Ar biter of armies and empires, desires that you shall sum mon the faithful to the foot of the altar to offer public thanksgiving to God. The Prefect will concert with your lordship on the measures to ba taken for giving all desirable solemnity to the Te Delon, which you will have the kindness to cause to be celebrated on the 16th of the present month.—Accept, &e., " FORTOUL." The prcvincial papers contain further accounts of the enthusiastic manner in which the news of the fall of Sebastopol was received in different towns. At Lyons, during the performance at the Grand Theatre, a copy of the despatch was brought to M. Jomain, commissary of police, who immediately put on his scarf, and advancing to the front of the principal row of boxes, made a gesture for silence, and then read the despatch. The spectators, about 2,000 in number rose, en masse, and shouted with indescribable enthusiasm, " Vive l'Empereur !" The greater part of them quitted the theatre. The news spread with electric rapidity through the city, and all the cafés and clubs were crowded, and group 3 collected in the streets. " Byery face," says a local newspaper, " beamed with joy." Travellers who came up by the railways report that all the towns and villages on the different lines were illuminated. At Rennes, Bordeaux, Le moges, Strasburg, Valenciennes, Angers, Evreaux, Elbeuf, Lille Laon, and N an t es , t he manifesta tions of public joy are represented to have been most striking. " We learn from a good source," says the Cour rier de Marseille, " that in consequence of the success at Sebastopol, and the evacuation of the Russian fortifications, Marshal V a lli an t, Mi n i ster of War, ha s sus p e nded-the sending off of siege ma teriel and projectiles, which were being forwarded from this port for the Crimea." A body of about 100 Russian prisoners arrived yesterday at Lyons from the depot of the Isle of Aix, ou their way to Mar se ill es . Th ey 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. BOURSE, SEPT. 13.—CLOSING PRICES. Cash. fr. e.

The Russians have not made any demonstration against the place, which they kept closely blockaded. In the affair of the Bth they lost a general, a colonel, 5 captains, and 200 men." A letter from Constantinople, brought by the last mail, states that the Anglo-Austro-French company, formed for the cutting of a canal from Kustendje to Rassova (from the Black Sea to the Danube), has, through its agent, Mr. Campbell, presented a project to the Porte for the concession of the work. The Porte, previously to converting it into a firman, has introduced certain modifica tions, chiefly relating to the perpetuity of the con cession, it being one of the fundamental principles of Ottoman policy never to accord a particle of Mussulman soil voluntarily otherwise than for a limited time. The work is to begin next spring, and may be considered as regulating de facto the second point of guarantee, viz., the free navigation of the Danube. The Austrian Embassy ab Con stantinople has given its most cordial support to this matter. THE MEDITERRANEAN. MARSEILLES, Sept. 11.—An order was received here this afternoon by the military authorities not only to suspend the embarkation of bombshells, which were being shipped in great quantities, but likewise to land th ose already sipped on board the transports in the harbour. This order is the na tural consequence of the glorious capture of the southern portion of Sebastopol by the allied armies, announced here yesterday morning by private de spatches, and confirmed by a despatch subsequently received by the Prefect, and read to the public at the theatre last evening. The despatch was re ceived by a crowded house with great cheering and enthusiastic cries of " Vivo l'Empereur," and " Vive la France." The splendid victory is being officially announced this evening, by the firing of the guns of the forts. Preparations are likewise being made to illuminate the public buildings. PRUSSIA. In consequence of the reduction of the Prussian artillery, the sale of a number of horses commenced at Wesel a few days ago ; it attracted a large at tendance of purchasers, and the horses fetched from 100 to 150 thalers each (the thaler is somewhat under 41r.) A letter from Berlin says that the King of Prus sia is to arrive at Nordhausen on the 17th, and to be present at the manoeuvres of troops in the pro vince. The King is then to proceed to Frankfort on-the-Maine, and at the end of September to Stol henfels. At the beginning of October, his Majesty is to go to Cologne to lay the first stone of the bridge over the Rhine, and is afterwards to re turn to Berlin by way of Westphalia. The Prince of Prussia left Brussels on the 11th to return to Germany. RUSSIA. A letter from St. Petersburg announces the arrival of the Grand Duke Michael at Revel on the 24th ult., where he was received by General Grabb. The allied fleet of Nargen consisted at that date of 68 vessels, including 20 transports and 2 yachts ; while, on the sth ult., the number amounted to 107 sail. SPAIN. The Madrid journals of the Bth have arrived. The Queen had not approved of the new organisa tion of the royal household, having taken time to examine it ; it is based on that of the court of Eng land. The Clamor Public° mentions a report that M. Patricio de la Escosura is to be nominated Am bassador Extraordinary in Portugal, and is to attend in that capacity the coronation of Don Pedro V. The sale of the ecclesiastical and na tional property was continuing with marked suc cess ; the biddings everywhere had exceeded thp upset prices. It was thought that in the course of the year the sales will amount to between 300,000,000 and 400,000,000 reals. The Duchess of Genoa has sant I,ooofr. to the committee for the Piedmontese army in the Crimea. RIVER PLATE AND BRAZILS SOUTHAMPTON, Sept. 13.—The Royal Mail Com pany's steam-ship Great Western, Captain T. A. Bevis, with the usual Brazilian and River Plate Mails in charge of Lieutenant Payne, R.N., ar rived this evening at 7 o'clock. The Great Western, during the voyage home wards, experienced fine weather. The Great Western brings mails from the follow ing places, with their respective dates affixed : Buenos Ayres, Aug. 2d ; Monte Video, sth ; Rio de Janeiro, 14th; Bahia, 18th; Pernambuco, 21st; St. Vincent, 30th ' • Teneriffe, Sept. 4th : M a d e i ra , sth • and Lisbon, 9th.

The Great Western brings specie to the amount of 6,2001.; and on freight—diamonds, 30,0001.; 55 serous ipecacuanha, 115 serons cochineal, 530 barrels tapioca, 3U bags coffee, 14 barrels onions, 14 cases fruit, and 130 packages sundries. RIO MARKETS. AUGUST 11. Taken altogether, the business of the month was to a full average amount. Imports were upon an extensive scale, and as a neces sary consequence most descriptions declined in value. Little was done in produce early in the month, in consequence of high prices and adverse advices from Europe. A scarcity of bills upon Fldrops rendered the exchange flat for the steamer. In other respects the money market offered but little interest. Discounts ruled at 81 to 91; 9 was the general rate for approved paper. A fair inquiry prevailed through- out the month. Exchange opened later than usual, the bulk of the transactions having occurred from the 11th to the 13th. London, 27k to g at 90 de. were the first rates quoted, and the market rapidly declined tl 27 ds., the closing quotation for Avon, and the rate at which the largest amount was negotiated.

EXPORTS.—Sugar —We cannot note anything of mo• maul with regard to this article, and the little we have now on hand in store is held at higher prices than pur chasers are inclined to give. In Exchange, about 15,0001. have been passed within the two or three days prior to the departure of the steamer, at 273, and we consider the rate firm. In discounts bank rate continues at 7 per cent. per annum, and they hold a good a,rnount for negotiating. THE FALL OF SEBASTOPOL.—The following is the flattering defence of the Russian journal Le Nord for the evacuation of this fortress:--" The resolution of Prince Gortschakoff exhibits the energy of a great commander. It saves Russia from an inextricable position, into which a false interpretation of the point of honour would have thrust her. The Russian array concentrated north of Sebastopol will henceforth have that unity Of movement and action which until now it has wanted. The Sebas topol of the south is replaced by the Sebastopol of the north—a formidable position, bristling with innumerable guns—which a compact army henceforward will defend.

THE FALL OF SEBASTOPOL I ( Front the Times of this day.) heseffi an e can be the a to f all the causes of the late signal triumph of armies, and more especially of the precipitate retrea the Russian garrison from the south side of SebastePf r : yet some facts have already reached us from other quad ters which throw additional light on this remarkable tube abrupt termination of the siege. It is clear fre i m oi , telegraphic despatches of the allied Generals, and e tbe from the report of Prince Gortschakoff, that when se enemy withdrew bodily in the night of the Bth I' d Vtli of September from the town of Sebastopol.o the Karabelnaia suburb he cannot be said to ha m been driven out of his place by direct foree,4 would have been more honourable to the Russians ! ..

These considerations appear to us to proves,lol:o Ruscians evacua ed the southern side of Saba gr°, e ,, e of this precipitate manner principally on strateg'he 8 074 —that is to say, they acknowledged, from t ot pro"; - 3 • defeats they bad sustained, that they could n e ' to tal. t h e . the defence of the place without risking th e ... be w ro ,' r struction of their army in the Crimea, and ",003 ° FO drew from the fortress in the hope of caving sum t tion of their troops.

'We °f r . oftP tt i ! o ro from these facts that not only is SebastoP ° ' ;tea city, for its defence might ie prat] acted, but that the Russian forces in the be r etrel'or beaten eriny, and that the main cause of t ' ete r t i ne!' perhaps have bee i c i r i o iea_., their moral and physical inability to ene °ll sussie': t b perier troops of the allies.
