e 1 I i~~~~ 1 I LONDON, TUESDAY, AUGUST 14, 1855. The crimes of the House of Hapsburg are of a complexion never to be forgiven. They are un redeemed by any admixture of good, or by a single spark of magnanimity. Great States have_ fer tilised the countries they conquered, and, in pallia tion of the cruelties which marked their victorious career, have left, in a higher civilisation, lasting traces of their physical and intellectual superiority. But Austria has conquered only to debase a n d destroy. Her career has been that of an ATTILA, but more inglorious, as she has made her way by every species of fraud, combined with every species of secret persecution. The readers of her annals quality has been most arc puzzled to say which prominent in the character of her government — cowardice or cruelty. She has been by turns fawning and treacherous to rival States, but to the unhappy people subject to her yoke she has been uniformly tyrannical and merciless. With a refinement of cruelty which it belongs only to the guiltiest of all Gpvernrnents to exercise, she has made the suffering cries of the people she oppressd a pretence for loading them with heavier penalties. She has drawn the cords of her political rack tighter with every groan the torture has wrung from the victim's lips. The sword, the scaffold, and the torch have been her invariable answers to every prayer for relief or petition for justice. Her scheme o f government is a perpetual system of martial law, aided by the services of the spy and inquisitor. Since the events of 1848 revealed the deep seated hatred which her iniquitous rule excited, not only among the races she has enslaved, but in her own Duchy of Austria, she has grown con tinually more sus picious and more sanguinary. She knows well that her crimes of that period will be remembered with horror and spoken of with detestation as long as principles o f humanity and justice remain implanted in the hearts of mankind. There was a cool, wary circumspection in her sacrifice of victims, which showed that the destroyed life, not from anY f ee ling of political necessity, but f rom mere blood- Z t ISIT of HER MAJESTY to FRANCE. — GRAND MILITARY and NATAL DISPLAY at BOULOGNE.

GREAT REDUCTION IN THE PRICE OF "THE SUN," FROM FIVEPENCE-HALFPENNY FOURPENCE. FOR THE THIRD OR LATEST EDITION. In consequence of the abolition of the Stamp Duty on Newspapers the public in all large cities and towns to which parcels are forwarded by the News-Agents, The Sun, which formerly cost Fivepence-lialf penny for the Latest Edition, containing Parliamentary Debates of the same even ing, together with the List of Army and Navy Promotions in the London Gazette, with Official Despatches from the Seat of War, the Latest Sporting, and all other Commercial News, List of Bankrupts, &c., &c., can now be had for Fourpence, being a saving of nearly one-third. Hitherto the price of the paper was nomi nally Fivepence, but all Late Editions posted after six o'clock were charged a fee of One Halfpenny by the Post-office, which made the price to the Subscriber Fivepence-Halfpenny. This charge must still be made to those in remote places unless the Postmaster-General have the •magnanimity to forego such a paltry souroe of revenue. San-office, 112, Strand, London, 9th July, 1855. ~J.; A§llll, THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 14, 18554 oowardly and selfish. One must make the con test short and decisive, the other lingering and resultless. In a word, according to the course the people of this country ' . Nov take, the contest will be known hereafter as a war of diplomacy and juggling, or be distinguished by a title which will confer immortal honour on our name—the War of Liberation ! Our Statesmen have lost their wisdom—have our people lost their spirit ? We yesterday indicated the general results of the now moribund session, with a more particular notice of the events previous to the Christmas recess. We now resume the consideration of the occurrences from the re-assembling of Parliament on the 23d of January until its separation on the 14th of August. Occurrences which, if they have not led to any very remarkable alterations in the national statute book, have yet produced striking changes in the positions of parties and of their leaders. Scarcely had the representatives of the people pet in the Imperial P a l ace o f Westminster before e fire was opened against the ABERDEEN Cabinet. Mr. ROEBUCK aimed the first broadside, which produced a very extraordinary effect—creating a regular panic in the Ministerial Camp. The notice given, on what was virtually the first night of the Session, led to the resignation of the then Presi dent of the Council, who declared that he could not resist an inquiry demanded by the gross and palpable inefficiency displayed by the parties who previously had monopolised the departments connected with the mis-management of the War. The secession of the Ministerial Leader in the Lower House —the man who had uttered such " prave ords " on every possible occasion—senlPd the fate of the —Joint Stock Administration." The public en thusiasm was excited to the highest pitch, and woe to the Member who opposed a stringent and searching investigation, he might look forward to some troublesome interrogatories at his next ap pearance on the hustings. The matter came on without delay—the lists were cleared—the trumpets sounded, and the signal for combat was given. The popular cham pion was worn out with sickness and debility ; but like IvANHoE when braving the wrath of BRIAN DE Bois GILBERT, he shrunk not from the en counter, but strong in the justice of his cause, dared that which required more physical strength and power. The result was equally decisive. The very weakness of Mr. ROEBUCK was more effectual than the most vigorous strength and energy might have been. The energy and enthusiasm that in duced him to grapple with such a topic when he ought to have avoided every species of exertion, communicated itself to the house, and his motion was carried by a decided and overwhelming ma jority of 157—there being 305 for, and but 148 against inquiry. The Ministerial Crisis followed. Lord ABER DEEN of course resigned, and Lord DERBY was en trusted by his SOVEREIGN with the important task of forming a strong and vigorous Administration. The noble Earl had a golden opportunity of rendering valuable services to his QUEEN and country, but he sacrificed all in trying to obtain recruits from the ranks of the defunct Cabinet. He felt that Lord PAL MERSTON possessed the confidence of the people, and he was naturally anxious to . obtain his co-operation. But the Noble Viscount was well aware of his own value. Like a brilliant star in the theatrical hemisphere, he refused any terms, unless his friends Mr. GLADSTONE and Mr. SIDNEY HERBERT should be included in the arrangement. Lord DERBY weakly consented. He would at the time have done anything to gain the prize ; but he created a fatal obstacle to his success at the very outset of the negotiations. It is true that he induced his faithful and effi cient colleague, Mr. DISRAELI, to waive the posi tion to which he was pre-eminently entitled, and to consent to act under Lord PALMERSTOIT, to whom the envied post of Leader of the House of Commons was tendered. But the coveted posi tion of Secretary for War was pre-occupied ; that had been offered to, and accepted by, Lord ELLEN BOROUGH, before Lord PALMERSToN was consulted, and the Presidentship of the Council was the place actually intended for the most popular personage of the day, who was regarded by high and low, rich and poor, as " the Coming Man." The refusal of Lord PALMERSTON, Mr. GLAD STONE, and Mr. SIDNEY HERBERT to the proposed coalition was fatal to Lord DEE,By'S prospects. The Noble Lord intimated to her MAJESTY his inability to render the required service, and Lord JOHN RUSSELL was next sent for. But the de serter " who upset the coach" soon discovered the impossibility of obtaining a "RussELL" Cabi net. He also had to relinquish the too arduous task, and the turn of Lord PALMERSTON arrived —the object of his life-long ambition was accom plished. It is needless to say that Lord PALMERSTON joyously undertook the duty imposed on him by his SOVEREIGN. He had the hearty good wishes of the People, who believed that ho would have availed himself to the uttermost of his power to invigorate and strengthen the e f fete Administration by the infusion of new blood, and by, so far as practicable, finding the "right men for the right places." Sanguine expectations were formed as to his efficiency, and also as to his desire to sig nalise his admission to the office of Prime Minister by some remarkable ameliorations. But the chance was relinquished. The new Cabinet was com posed entirely of the old materials. In place of the Duke of NEWCASTLE—by far the best of the Aberdeenites—who was made the scapegoat of his mor© culpable colleagues—of Lord ABERDEEN him self, and of Lord JOHN RUSSELL--who had retired before the vote of inquiry was carried—Lord PAN MURE alone was introduced as War Minister, the offices of Secretary at War and for War being amalgamated. In addition to Lord PANMURE, Lord CANNING and Mr. CARDWELL were ad mitted to seats in the Cabinet. There were thus two Aberdeenites in place of the two that had retired—and one pure Whig, Lord PANMURE, in place of Lurd JOHN RUSSELL, the acknowledged Leader of that party. While Mr. SIDNEY HER BERT, through whose influence it was at least be lieved that Odessa had been spared, was made Home-Secretary ! This shuffling of the cards was by no means satisfactory to the country. It was osten tatiously declared that there was no change whatsoever in the Ministerial policy, that the same principles would still regulate the proceedings of the Government. The younger DROMIO exhibited no signs of improve ment, and it was already felt that all the vices and obje c ti ona b le qualities of the elder twin would be displ aye d b y the younger, a feeling which was increased by the minor appointments which ap peared to be altogether reserved as prizes for j c o a l n ly di t d a a r t s e a s r u e c a c c e c e u d s e t d om wh ed o hid aristocratic n ot a t ictllaei,moarn t a s s . o l\T ur ° to designate it, " a handle to his name ! " The discontent became general even before Parliament resumed its meetings. The first step taken was by no-means calculated to soothe the exasperation of the public mi n d . It wa3 an attempt to get rid of the investigation that Lad 1)6013 voted by so decisive a majority, it seemed to be assumed that the substitution of Lord PALMERSTON for Lord ABERDEEN would be sufficient to satisfy the community—a suggestion which found no echo beyond the Ministerial ranks. The new Premier had the good sense to recognise and bow to the popular will. His tenure of office would otherwise have been of a very brief cha racter ! But not so . the Rump of Aberdeenism. GLADSTONE, GRAHAM, and HERIERT heard with astonishment that the inquiry was to proceed. Believing that they were indispensables, without which no Government could stand, they at once tendered their resignations, which, after some attempt to induce them to change their determi nations, were accepted. Mr. CARDWELL, although not personally implicated, through a feeling of honour shared the fate of his colleagues, and Lord ST. GERstAnts—the best of the entire party —also relinquished the Viceroyalty of Ireland. Here, then, was another opportunity for the new Premier. The Cabinet being purged of the leaven of Aberdeenism, he might have obtainGd men i n whom the people would have confided, and who would really have conferred stability on his Government. Unfortunately, he again " missed his tip." All that he obtained was the very mediocre addition of Sir GEORGE CORNEWALL LEWIS, who became Chancellor of the Exchequer in lieu of Mr. GLADSTONE, and Mr. VERNON SMITH, who became President of the Board of Control, vice Sir CHARLES WOOD, pitchforked into the Board of Admiralty. His chief, if not his only, qualification for the office being that he had married the niece of a veteran Marquis of great influence, and that his son had married the daughter of a Whig Earl—that of the new finan cial Minister was that he was the brother-in-law of the Foreign. Secretary. The appointment of Sir CHARLES Woo D—the announcement whereof was received with derisive cheers in the House, sealed the unpopularity of the Ministers, which was enhanced by the unfair treatment of Mr. LAYARD, who, after being offered the Under-Secretaryship at War —for which he was eminently qualified —was attempted to be fobbed off with that of the Colo nies, with the duties whereof he was wholly un acquainted. The only other accession to the Cabinet was Lord JOHN RUSSELL, who, after he had left Eng land en route for Vienna, accepted the office of Secretary for the Colonies, in the place of Sir GEORGE GREY, transferred to the Home Department. These changes were considered as anything but improvements by the community, and the palpable "red-tapism" displayed in the selection of new candidates for office occasioned the demand for Administrative Reform, and the formation of an Association that at first promised to achieve remarkable results, and to exceed the doings even of the Anti-Corn-Law League itself. We shall, on a future opportunity, trace out the further events of the session subsequent to the inauguration of the PALmEnsToN-Ministry in office, when nearly half the session being wasted its real. business commenced, and the measures so anxiously looked for were at length brought forward. An over-nice conscience in this work-day world is undoubtedly an injurious possession, and this is no less certainly true of over-refined percep tions. In the one case the possessor, unless born to affluence, would stand now-a-days a fair chanco of starvation, or of being driven into the opposite extreme of dispensing with any conscience at all, and in the other of dying of inanition, or of be coming as reckless of what he eats and drinks as if, liks MTTEMIDATFAS, he was armed with a sovereign antidote to all poisons whatever. The revelations made before the Committee on Adulterations will already have suggested such thoughts as the preceding to many of our readers, who, doubtless, have come to the conclusion on the first head, that if tradesmen in general, and, still more, the manufacturers and wholesale mer chants who supply them, ever had any conscience at all, they must have deemed it necessary to lose it long ago, for turn almost in any direction they will, they find they are met with fraudulent and more or less dangerous adulterations. Imagine a respectable pater-familial seated at the breakfast table with his charming spouse and promising olive branches around him, and think of what may await them in their matutinal meal. Our friend is a model father, and is naturally anxious for the health of his children, and having rickets in, terrorem before him, he takes care that their diet drink in the morning shall be milk. Poor victim of deception ! to dream of that vile compound of an anomalous fluid from ulcerated udders, diluted with water and thickened with diseased brains, being milk, and least of all wholesome nutriment. The very bread it moistens, which it delights his paternal heart to see them masticate heartily, and which he regards as the staff of life, is drugged with alum, so as to yield but treacherous support ; and well for them if it contain no metallic salt of more pernicious properties. The very partner of his existence is, though unwittingly, in the league against him. The coffee her fairy fingers pour out for him is drugged with a species of dandelion, and not un frequently this is adulterated in a revolting man ner. An adulterated adulterative ! The force of rascality can hardly go further. Should he prefer tea, those blue and yellow abominations, prussiate of iron and chromate of lead, with a train of unwholesome vegetable and earthy satel lites, lurk in the cup. The very sugar is adul terated with potato starch, and the butter with lard. Should he be a votary of nicotiana, and have recourse at so early an hour to the " fra grant weed," that last of the cardinal virtues on which the preceding have been said to wait, the demon of adulteration confronts him in his meerschaum or humbler cutty," and by the heat or odour of the smoke reminds him that, being mortal, he should not inhale even a miniature kiln, or familiarise his stomach and lungs too much with chlorine and similar irritating gases —in other words, that the mixture of ochre, salt, saltpetre, red sandstone, kc., with his to bacco is not desirable. Or if he is not a smoker, and indulges in what lie conceives to be the fer mented and powdered weed, how mistaken a wretch he is ! Titillating his nostrils with snuff ! Paralysing his nasal nerves, rather ; for over and above the usual ammonia or lime, and any foreign vegetable matter, the mixture contains a frightful percentage of ochre, sand, glass, and even more dangerous matters. Follow him to the dinner table. The pepper in his soup, the anchovy sauce on his fish, both are adulterated. The cayenne is mixed with salt and coloured with red lead, and the sauce with other fish and Armenian bole. His mus tard never grew from mustard seed, or possibly contains 90 per cent. of turnip seed and flour, doctored with turmeric and cayenne. His vine gar "bites" like diluted oil of vitriol, and no won der, since it contains it. His pickles are green with copper, or yellow with chromate of lead. His beer is rich in quassia, cocculus indices, salt, lime, &c., over and above the little malt, and ° the entire eu i us i on o f h o p e ; an d his Rine is an invitation to paralysis and gout, or "old PARR." It may be that he provides himself with a box of dinner, at all events of stomachic and digestive pills. He never can be sure of having them twice alike, unless at the same shop. His very drugs are drugged, and the gentle friend of one day may be the restless tormentor of the next. Everywhere the demon anticipates and. confronts him. He cannot confide in cocoa ; he cannot rely on cod-liver oil ; the scammony he gets is not one-seventeenth part scr...mmony, and as tri n gent beside ; his pepper, is litttle better than P.D. ; his mustard wo,n't raise a blister or operate as an emetic (which is a wonder) ; and whatever looks best is most dangerously adulterated. He cannot trust his children with pence near a cou fectioner's shop without risking their precious lives, frrr if ever poisoning was carried on as a trade it is in these shops, especially such as most catch the eye with their many-coloured saccharine temptations. It is positively frightful to consi der all this cursorily—it were enough to drive a man mad to do so " curiously." Everything necessary for his sustenance or health is poisoned, or not what it seems. Unfortunate pater-familias, what as unenviable fate is his ! The evil, in short, is really gigantic, and some thing must be done to put a stop to it. It un dermines at once health and morals, and costs society too much to be overlooked or permitted to continue. To talk of society helping itself is vicious twaddle. Society cannot devote itself to perpetual analysis, were its knowledge equal to the task. It is the work of chemists, and chemists must be instructed and paid to do it. The duty of watching over this department might well— *-Yrould, indood, most properly—be confided to the Minister of Public Health ; and to him should be entrusted the necessary authority to appoint scien tific men to analyse doubtful articles obtained by appropriate agents —summary proceedings to be taken against parties offending on the results of the analysis being forthcoming. The pulpit, too, should lend its aid to the press, and deal more practically with questions of trade morals than has been its wont. hitherto ; and the public may protect itself more than it does by purchasing of tradesmen of approved integrity, and insisting less on cheapness and more on quality. A good deal of the origin of the evil may, we are con vinced, be traced to the latter cause. By these agencies a marked effect may soon be produced, and in the meantime we recommend nervous heads of families not to get over-excited by these revela tions, remembering that it may be better to be slowly poisoned with adulterations than inconti nently killed with fear. thirstiness. Can the deliberate murder of ROBERT BLUM ever be forgotten ? When the dastardly Court had fled from Vienna in terror, he was one of those who saved the capital from anarchy, and aided in the perilous task of government. Con scious-of perfect innocence, he remained in Vienna when. the Court was brought back by the bayonets of its soldiery. He was seized, underwent the mockery of a trial before men who had fore doomed his death—and when his friends inquired for him, they found only the mutilated corpse of one of the bast and noblest beings ever intended by PROVIDENCE for the teaching an enlightenment of his fellows. • How did Austria act in her Polish pro vinces ? She incited the peasants her craft ,had kept in brutal ignorance to devastate the country and murder the nobles and proprie tors. What did she do in Hungary ? First, hordes of savage Croats were directed against the patriots, and then Russia was entreated to send her aid for their extermination. What were her deeds in Italy ? Such as the whole eivilised4 world heard of with horror. Who can forget that despatch of HATNAII, in which he boasted of having driven the inhabitants of Brescia, men, women, and children, into one quarter ,of the town, which was then set on fire, while his mur derous soldiery kept guard around the flaming circle, and hailed with shouts the fall d the blaz ing churches in which these victims of unpatalleled barbarity were crushed or burnt to death, while their prayers and shrieks rose round the, altars of their worship. We should despair of the vigilance of PROVIDENCE, if we believed that such crimes would pass un punished, or if we imagined that the monstrous Government which directed thorn would long I, permitted to encumber the earth. Great efforts have been made to mislead our people as to the character of the War. It shall not be our fault if they are not made to thoroughly comprehend it. Austria, to whom our statesmen paid such sickening and slavish submission— Austria is the original cause of the predominance of Russia, and has really, though not directly, encouraged that Power to attempt the conquest of Turkey. The overgrown, ill• assorted frame of the Austrian Empire has been kept together under an impression that it would oppose an effectual barrier to Russian aggression. The hollowness of this idea was demonstrated when the Court of Vienna solicited the assistance of Russian armies to trample down freedom in Hun gary. From that time the pretensions of Russia rose. She saw that she could afford to despise Austria ; that this boasted empire must irresist ably be her jackal, and it is the jackal's part that Austria has played since the war with Russia began. She has growled before, sometimes to deceive the Allies with pretences of negotiation— sometimes to dash at the prey which the lion was unable to hold—sometimes to cover his advance or retreat, and allow him time to gather health and strength for a spring at his hunters. How were the Russian forces collected for the attack at Inkerman, but by the connivance of Austria occupying the Principalities, that the Russian forces, safe from attack in that direction, might be marched to the Crimea ? Where do the enor mous Russian reinforcements come from now, but from the corps on the Austrian frontier, where they have been concentrated to favour the delu sion that Austria was inclined to assume an inde pendent position ? Our policy, at the present time, is equally shameful and dangerous. Our Government is pursuing that middle course—that gentle avoid ance of extremes which, in times of crisis, degrades a great country, and immeasurably increases all its difficulties. We are raising a German legion and an Italian legion, and we talk of raising a Polish legion. As yet, we have succeeded to the extent of gaining three or four thousand men. The Governments of the countries from which these recruits are drawn watch our proceedings with the strongest interest. They throw every impediment in our way. In a quiet manner, the quiet manner of a sneak and pol troon, we are doing all we can to excite their animosity ; and yet knowing this—knowing that it is merely a question of time, when some cause of quarrel will explode between those Govern ments and ourselves, we permit them to make a source of profit of the War, to gather up all its spoils, while we receive all the losses, and make all the sacrifices. Austria is waiting her oppor tunity. As surely as we write the words, will she take part against us when she perceives in our state any sign of exhaustion. Let our people get wearied of the war, or let our arms sustain any serious reverse, and Aus tria will be upon us. Stealthily perfidious as she has ever been, she is even now sharpening her fangs and talons for the fray. What do these movements of her troops on the Italian frontier mean ? They are not without an object. She knows she is not safe in that direc tion. The heroic struggles of the Milanese and the Venetians are remembered by her, and keep alive her unslaked thirst of vengeance. Perhaps she expects a rising. Perhaps she is at this mo ment getting up a fictitious plot by her agents to afford her just that amount of pretence she re quires for once more letting loose her brutal sol diery, and for making such dire havoc in the Italian provinces as to render impossible a pa triotic effort for years to come. We appeal to the people. We have no hope but in them. Heretofore their perceptions have been quick—their instincts keen and right. If they will not move now—if they behold with in difference our Government exciting the hate of the German Powers, while positively nourishing their strength—then, all-depressing as the convic tion is, all-disastrous as we know the consequences must be, we must submit to make the first great step in the War to national decline. Affairs are rapidly verging to that state when we must have, not only Poland, and Hungary, and Italy, but also Germany with us or against us. While all the resources of those countries are at the disposal of Governments which detest us, it is merely a a question of time when they will be employed to our injury. Give liberty to those noble coun tries and they are at once our Allies. Pull down the same that intolerable nuisance, the Aust r i an empire, strong only to persecu s te mt a K n s do litE oppress now as in the days of rE " Thou slave, thou wretch, thou coward, Thou little vaiiant, great in And Europe will rise invigorated, because free, and the War will be brought to a speedy an d most glorious close. Time presses—the necessity for action is urgent. Let not the people think that they can trust to their Government. We have no Government as regards the great principles involved in this war, and the large views with which it should be re garded. The Government looks on it as a kind of international duel, which must be conducted with all due forms, and be concluded when punc tilios of honour have been arranged. Will the People consent to this view ? They are, owing to the Peculiarstate of parties, and the discredit in to which the Ministry has fallen, at this advent all-powerf u l. They can choose which part they x ple,e. O A , is brave and generous, the other ammillar WANT OF CANDOUR AND HONESTY IN MINISTERS. IPHE EDITOR Or THE SUN. Sir,—ln. Gibbon's "Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" (vol. ii., chap. xiii.), the Emperor Diocletian's opinie,n of " Ministers " is thus recorded : " How often is it the interest of four or five Ministers to combine together to deceive their sovereign ! Secluded from mankind by his exalted dignity, the truth is con cealed from his knowledge ; he can see only with their eyes, he hears nothi ng b u t th e i r m i srepresentations. He confers the most important offices upon vice and weak ness, and disgraces the most virtuous and deserving among his subjects. By such infamous arts (adds Dio cletian) the best and wisest princes are sold to the venal corruption of their courtiers." How applicable is this statement to Ministers of the present day 1 For in how many recent instances have not important offices, honours and rewards, been con ferred on incompetency, on weakness, and even on treachery and vice—whilst disgrace has been the award of others who have honestly and gallantly served .their country and their Queen.—l am, &c.

HAYMARKET THEATRE. Planch4's comedy of Court Favour was brought out at this theatre last night, for the purpose of introducing a debutante, who appeared under the none de theatre of Blanche Fane. The lady is deficient in none of the qua lities necessary to insure her success in her profession. She is a thorough mistress of the traditions of the stage ; she has a remarkably flexible voice, and a face and figure about which there can bo no dispute. Her reception was most triumphant, and the impression left on the minds of the audience was a feeling of surprise that the manager should have delayed bringing forward so per fect an actress until so large a number of those best able to appreciate her merits should have left London.. There can be no doubt that Miss Blanche Pane is destined to occupy an important position amongst living English actresses.

It was not possible to refuse Creir request,land accordingly the staff of the national guard will have to modify the arrangements it had made, so as to admit them. Deputations irum the arrondissements and communes adjacent to the capi tal, and from the different trades and constituted societies, also propose to assemble with their flags on the passage of her Majesty. As numerous triumphal arches are about to be raised on the line of the pro cession, the companies of the national guard have opened subscriptions, which have already attained a large amount, for decorating the streets and boulevards with appropriate emblems, allegorical figures, and inscrip tions. On the unoccupied sites of the Boulevard de Strasbourg, and on all the others on the line of proces sion, stands are to be erected for spectators. Such is the desire to see the cortege, that already on the boule vard as much as 300 fr. have been offered for a single window.

The Military Gazette of Vienna, which, however, receives its information from Russian sources, pub lishes the following letter from Odessa : "According to letters from Sebastopol of the 22d, it is not true that the communications between the northern and southern sides of the town have been interupted, as stated in the some of the newspapers. The town is well supplied with provisions ; the storehouses on the northern side, for example, contain supplies for 300,000 men for a year, and those of the State are actually able to sell flour to the 8,000 inhabitants of Sebastopol at a moderate rate. The sick of the hospitals have for the most part been removed to the interior of the Crimea ; there are only in the northern fort about 12,000 men, whose wounds are too serious to permit them to be re moved. The cholera does not cause the ravages stated in several newspapers, and it has nowhere taken an epidemic character." Another letter from Odessa, in the Cologne Ga zette says on the other hand :—" Both h ere an d at Nicolaieff the Russians appear to have lost all hope of preserving Sebastopol." A letter from St. Petersburg of the 2d, in the Borsenhalle, says :—" An ordonnance has just been published fixing the penalties for delay in the pay ment of customs duties. Another decree confides the Ministry of Finance ad interim to M. Norows, during the absence of M. de Brock. Thirteen go vernments of the western part of the empire hare furnished all their contingents without its being found necessary to have a supplemental drawing, and the Emperor ha:s expressed his satisfaction to the governors on the subject. THE WHITE SEA.. The Moniteur publishes the following report, addressed by Captain Guilbert, commanding the French frigate Cleopatre, in the White Sea, and dated June 28 : "I have the honour to inform. you that on the 15th I arrived before the Bar of Archangel, where I effected my junction with the English division. The White Sea became this year free from ioe before tho end of May, and several neutral vessels, taking advantage of the open navigation, repaired to Archangel, and some even took in cargo and loft the port before the arrival of the English. We thought it our duty to address the consuls, authorising the others to withdraw, either in ballast or with those portions of their cargo which they already had taken on board before the first notification of the blockade. I have rearun to believe that all have now left ; they are, for the most part, Norwegians, Americans, and from Bremen, the latter of consid era bl e tonnage. All were loaded with corn and flour. The Danish ship Chase, in favour of which I last year granted permission to return to Archangel, during the blockade, on account of serious damage, has now left under safe conduct. " The steamers Petrel and Cocyte did not rejoin me until the 23d, having been delayed by bad weather on the voyage from Hammerfest." TURKEY.
