MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed without briskness, but very firmly, and, compared with Friday's range, prices of all kinds were ex treme. The sales were estimated at 9,000 bales, consisting of 500 American for export, and 250 Pernam and Maranham, at sd. to 6d.; 170 Bahia, 60. to 6gd. ; 300 Egyptian, 64d. to 7id. (500 export and 2,000 on speculation); and 3,500 Surat, 3.0. to 44d. per lb. The Railway Share Market was dull, and prices sensibly declined. The quotations of the public funds on the Paris Bourse are stated to have maintained an upward tendency yesterday, excepting the 3 per Cent. Rentes for money which declined 5 c. and without any variation for the account. The 4i per Cents. were in demand at an advance of 25 centimes for money and 40 c. for the account. The Share Market continued calm, and railway shares were much in request. The Moniteur has at last published the report of the Commission charged by the Legislative Body to examine into the project, presented last session, to authorise the Municipal Council of the city of Paris to contract a loan of 60 millions of francs, to be reimbursed by them in 40 years from the year 1858 ; which has been adopted by the Com mission, with two modifications—the one requiring a declaration as to the time of the completion of the intended improvements, the other recalling the ratification required by the State as to their pro tecting the City from preceding decrees. It is said that the sum named will be sufficient to complete the improvements marked out by the architects in the Rue de Rivoli and the great central Boulevard. The State agrees to contribute one-third of the cost of the works executed within the first five years. An important alteration will take place in the charges for telegraphic communication throughout France, Belgium, and Northern Germany to-mor row the 15th, whereby all messages will be trans mitted, night or day, at the rate of 90 centimes, or 9d. English, for 28 words, exclusive of the address. The advices from Jamaica mention that the sub ject of taxation was still exciting much interest and discussion. Some new financial measures will have to be adopted to maintain the institutions of the country, and to equalise the revenue to the expenditure. The articles upon which it was pro posed to increase the tariff were bread stuffs, some other kinds of provisions, and brandy, upon which the duties were sometime ago reduced. From Grenada accounts mention that it had been recommended by a committee of the legislature that provision should be made for a deficit of 2,0001. in the revenue, in order to meet the public expenditure up to last month, by the issue of debentures, payable in twelve months, and at the same time to levy an income tax on the salaries of public officers of 2i per cent. on those overlool. and under 2001. ; 5 per cent. on those between 2001. and 300/. ; 10 per cent. on those between 3001. and 4001., and so on ; and from this tax it is expected they will raise about 1,8001. The failure has been announced this morning of the London agency of a fruit company at the Azores, the party also being engaged in the wine and brandy trade. The loss will fall chiefly upon the fruit shippers, the London creditors only re presenting a small amount. Another firm con nected with the shipping interest and in surance business has made known its difficul ties, which are stated to have arisen from heavy bill transactions in connection with the recent stoppage of Lewis, Reis, and Co. The market for English Securities continues ra ther heavy, and in consequence of some large money sales a further decline has taken place. Consols opened at 881- to 881 for money, and 881 for December, the present prices being 87i to 88 for the former, and 88 to 88k for the later. The New 3 per Cents. are 87, 5 ,- to 871, and the Reduced 87 to 871. Exchequer Bills are still 7s. to 4s. discount. There is an absence of any important speculative dealings in the Foreign Stock Market to-day; the prices partake of the heaviness of the English Market. Turkish 6 per Cents. are nearly per cent. lower, namely, 80 to 80k, and the New Scrip is 31 to 3 dis. Spanish 3 per Cents. are 38k-, the New Deferred 19k, and the Passive 6to 64. Rus sian Bonds aro 95, and Dutch 4 per Cants. 93k. The following are the nominal prices of foreign stocks: Grenada Deferred Bonds, 6,/ to 7 ; Mexican, 19k to ; Peruvian, 74 to 76 ; ditto Three per Cents., 52 to 4; Portuguese Four per Cents., 43 to 45 ; Russian Five per Cents., 95 to 98 ; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 85 to 88; Spanish New Deferred, 19i to 20} ; ditto Three per Cents., 38 to 38i ; ditto Certificates, 4i to 5 ; ditto Pas sive, 6 to 1. Railway Shares, although weaker, are not so much depressed as might be expected. Great Northern A stock, however, is fully V. lower. The North-Western, South-Western, South-Eastern, and Midland are the lines most dealt in. East India Guaranteed are ss. lower, and Great Western of Canada are also flat. Foreign lines attract very few purchasers. Mining, Banking, and Miscellaneous Shares are without any general change, but Canada Land have dropped 101. Peninsular and Oriental Steam are about 11. under yesterday's value. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE 4 I. tron% th.t Offickt List.) titimows, dont 3 per Cent. Reduced Annuities,....... 3 per Cent.

MADAME JENNY GOLDSCHMIDT (née LIND).—Mr. Mitchell has been authorised by Madame Goldscbmidt to correct an erroneous statement, lately inserted in the Art Journal, as to her intention of visiting London for the special purpose of giving a concert in aid of the pro posed Nightingale Fund ; and to state that, although Madame Goldscbmidt bad already proposed her assist ance for the promotion of such a worthy object, she never expressed her intention of visiting England ex clusively for that purpose. THE PATRIOTIC FUND.—The weekly report of the committee for the administration of the Patriotic Fund states that the number at present receiving relief from the fund are—widows, 2,526 ; children, 3,104 ; a nd orphans who have lost both parents, 97.

The police are actively engaged in investigating the horrid affair. .( ?0 10 10 5 5 20 10 20 6 20 18 D 4 UK) 204 100 100 100 100 20 20 100 too 20 50 R 4ILWAYS. Ambg. Nottng. Bost. and Eastn.

(Sittings in Banco.—Before Lord Chief Justice Campbell, Justices Coleridge, Wightman, and Erle.) THE HABEAS CORPUS ACT.-JUDGMENT. 90 - 95 95 - 100 A. writ of habeas corpus was moved for yesterday by Mr. Mannisty, to bring up a witness in custody for examination in an arbitration case, before Mr. Sergeant Channel!, the arbitrator. The Court took time to con sider the application, and this morning the Court deli vered their judgment. Lord Campbell said the Court was of opinion that the habeas corpus must go. The act provided that a witness might be brought before a judge for examina tion, and, therefore, the question which arose in this case was whether an arbitrator was a judge within the meaning of the statute. The Court was of opinion that, though the learned Sergeant, who was appointed arbi trator in this case, was not finally to determine the case, yet, as the parties concerned were to be bound by the facts as proved by them before the learned Sergeant, he was a judge within the meaning of the act, and, therefore, the habeas corpus should be granted. Mr. Sergeant Chan nell had stated his willingness to go to the prison, and there take the evidence of the witness ; hut as the Court did not consider that would be a saving of expense to the parties, and as the Court had been asked to grant the habeas corpus, they would do so. 130 134 ••• Rule granted accordingly.l 130 - 133 103 - 105 12i --__ 13 d ..1 . 6 120 2i - 2i 8) - 1.1 id iP 56 58 as 8 - 7 8j 3 -- 2§ COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Sittings at Nisi Prius.) (Before Mr. Baron Martin and a Common Jury.) 30 - 31 83 - 85 ATKINSON V. NEWTON. Mr. Heniker appeared for the plaintiff ; the defendan appeared in person. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a widow lady, to recover of the defendant the value of a quantity of furniture under peculiar circumstances. It appeared that the defendant resided at Oakley Villa, King's-road, Chelsea, the plaintiff and her daughter occupying un furnished apartments therein. Shortly after the plain tiff had taken possession of the apartments a distress was put on the premises for. rent, when the plaintiff kindly assisted the defendant by allowing him to pledge her furniture for the amount required to satisfy the dis tress on his promising to redeem it in three weeks. The furniture, which the plaintiff valued at 801., and a miniature at twenty guineas, were accordingly pledged, the plaintiff obtaining 221. on the former, and 251. on the latter. There were also some other matters of dispute arising out of money advanced. The pawn broker, who had advanced the money on the furniture, said the property would not fetch more tha❑ 351. at an auction, and he would undertake to replace the furni ture by articles of the same quality for 401. Mr. Baron Martin, in summing up, said the defend ant by his pleas had given no answer to the plaintiff's claim. With regard to the furniture there could be no doubt it could be seizsd under the distress for rent, but it was a very kind act on the part of the plaintiff to allow the defendant to pledge it. He had not returned it at the same time agreed on, and the plaintiff had sued him for damages. In estimating that damage the jury would have to decide between the amount claimed, which, no doubt, was the value of the articles to the plaintiff, and the sum received by the witness, a' man connected with the trade. Whilst the jury were considering their verdict, the defendant offered to give up the tickets of the property, which was accepted by the plaintiff, and a verdict by consent was taken for 35/., settling the question of the rent between the defendant and plaintiff up to Septem ber ; Baron Martin remarking that the plaintiff had be. hayed very handsome to the defendant. BAIL COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Crompton and a Common Jury.) WIXTEED V. PENNELL. Mr. Petersdorff appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Peirce for the defendant. This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover 971., money lent, to which the defendant pleaded he was not indebted ; secondly, that he had a set-off of equal amount to the money claimed ; and thirdly, that he had paid the defendant. It appeared that the plaintiff re sided at Jubilee-place, King's road, Chelsea, and at the time of the advance was out of business. The defendant was a zinc -worker, of Chelsea, a friend of the plaintiff, and being in want of pecuniary assistance an arrangement was made between them that the plaintiff should advance the defendant 1001., the plaintiff giving his service as clerk and to assist the defendant in managing the business at a salary of two guineas per week, which was subsequently reduced to 30s. The plaintiff at first advanced 50/., which was subsequently increased to 1111. The tint ad vance took place i a March, and in Ju'y the defendant said he did not require the plaintiff's assistance any longer, and took possession of the books in which the entries of the advances were male. After that the par ties met, the accounts were gone through, and the defen dant admitted himself to be indebted to the plaintiff in 971. ; and it was to recover that sum that the present action was brought. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) SOUTHWARK. IMPUDENT ROBBERY.—.ToItn, Gri:Ph,3, a dirty-looking young fellow, was brought before Mr. Corabe, charged with stealing a roll of carpet, value 51., from the shop of Mr. Holland, the extentive furniture dealer in Newing ton-causeway. James Cannon, a porter in the employ of the prose cutor, said that he was inside the warehouse last evening attending to his business when he heard a loud noise at the doorway, where several piles of carpets and blankets were standing. lie immediately proceeded to the front of the shop, and perceived the carpets and blankets lying on the pavement, and on looking round be saw the prisoner with a roll of carpet in his arms, which he was running away with. As soon as he saw witness follow ing him he threw it down and attempted to escape, but he ran into the arms of a police-constable, who safely lodged him in the station-house. Jane Cannon, wife of last witness, said she was near the shop door, when she saw the prisoner come up to the doorway, seize a piece of carpet in his arms, and run away with it. In doing so he caused the whole pile to fall, which attracted the attention of her husband, and she distinctly pointed out the prisoner as the party who committed the robbery. • • - Mr. Combe said the case was pretty clear against the prisoner. He therefore asked hira whether he preferred going to the Sessions to be tried by a jury or plead before him ? The prisoner, after a little hesitation, said he did not much like to go to the Sessions, as the jury were such queer chaps ; he would rather his worship dealt with him, as he was guilty, and it was no use denying it. Mr. Combe committed him for three months, with hard labour, under the "New Criminal Justice Act." The prisoner said he was very much obliged to his wor ship, as he had no home and was in great want. In the gaol he would be warm and comfortable throughout the worst of the winter. Committed for three months. MARYLEBONE• UNPROVOKED ASSAULT UPON A CHILD.— Georgiana Charlton, a dissipated-looking woman, was charged be fore Mr. Broughton with assaulting Lucy Paris, aged 13, who is residing with her father, a shoemaker, at No. 10, Nottingham Mews. The complainant, an intelligent child, said that about four o'clock yesterday afternoon she was in High-street, Marylebone, near the police-office, when she saw the prisoner, who was intoxicated, in the company of another female standing before the Black Dog. She called corn. plainant to her three times. Complainant did not like to go to her as she was in liquor ; but, upon being so repeatedly spoken to, she went np to her, when she was immediately struck by the prisoner upon her f ace an d nose. The blood flowed in a stream from her nose. Upon seeing the assault several persons told complainant to give the prisoner into custody. The prisoner went away, and got as far as the Shepherd and Flock. She went in there. Complainant saw a policeman, and stated to him what had occurred. Policeman D 183 said that he took the prisoner into custody, and that the complainant wag then bleeding at the nose. Her pinafore was covered with blood. He took the prisoner to the s tation-house. She was drunk Mr. Broughton asked if the prisoner was known. The policeman said that she was a most notorious drunkard, and had been repeatedly at that Court. She was allowed a sum of money weekly by her husband, who bad parted from her in consequence of her habits, but she spent it all in gin. He had seen her that day for two hours going to different public-houses. The prisoner said that she was annoyed by the com plainant and other children. The policeman denied that to be the case. Mr. Broughton remarked that drunken women must expect to be annoyed by children. The prisoner was fined 205., or in default a month's imprinument. SHREWSBURY RACES.—(This Day.)

The Royal mail steam-ship Dee arrived out at St. Thomas on the 24th ult. At Jamaica the House of Assembly was in session. The flour-market was active, and one speculator had purchased nearly the whole stock at 465. Flour was being held at 48s. to 50s. In corn there was no inquiry, and holders were willing to take low rates. Some small lots of sugar had been sold at 225. Exchange was quoted, for bills at 90 days, 1 per cent, premium. At Barbadoes the weather was highly favourable for agricultural operations. Trade continued lan guid. - The following is a complete return of the late crop, including the portion of the cargo of the brigs Sarah (burnt) and Now City of Cork (lost in the gale of the 24th of August) : Sugar.-37,652 hhds., 2,232 tierces, 6,505 brls., equal to 39,953 hhds. shipped, the lccal consump tion being estimated at 4,000 hhds. Molasses.-12,371 puncheons, 204 hhds., 471 barrels, equal to 12,590 puncheons. Rum, 1,178 puncheons, 612 hogsheads. Cotton, 371 bales. Aloes, 1,025 gourds. At Grenada a great quantity of rain had fallen, and great injury had been done to the roads. The intelligence from this island is entirely de void of interest. At St. Lucia and other West India Islands great rejoicings had taken place, in commemoration of the success of the allies in the Crimea. The exports of produce for 1855 closed as follows : —Sugar, 4,656 hogsheads, 255 tierces, 2,250 brls. ; molasses, 855 puns., 14 tierces, 31 b r l s . ; rum, 2 pipes, 230 puns , 132 hhds., 33 quarter casks ; cocoa, 3 casks, 45 brls., 1,371 bags ' • logwood, 1,1011 tons ; hides, 865 ; cedar boards, 49 ; coffee, 2 brls. and 7 bags, &c. The growing canes looked healthy, and there is every probability of a good crop. The weather was rainy, and the island healthy. At British Guiana the new Harbour Regulation Bill had passed. The subject of the water supply and drainage was occupying attention. The weather was fine, and all the estates were busily engaged in making sugar. The canes for the next year's crop looked well. The exports from the colony during the last fort. night have been as follows :—Sugar, 0,232 Mids., 136 tierces, 576 bris., 3 half-brls., 773 bags ; mo lasses, 359 puns., 10 hhds., 16 brls ; rum, 1,664 puns., 292 hhds., 119 brls. ; coffee, 1 brl. ; cocoa nuts, 9,900 ; rice, 500 bags ; salted hides, 400 ; greenheart timber, 322 logs ; bark, 14 tierces, 50 barrels ; iron (old), 50 tons ; copper (old), 2 tons ; pewter, 1i tons. Tonnage was becoming more scarce, and freights At Trinidad matters were dull, and the weather very hot. The Pacific mail steam-ship New Grenada had arrived at Panama with 42 passengers, 497,000 dollars in specie, and dates from Valparaiso, Sept. 29, and Calloa, Oct. H. At Chili Congress was adjourned ; there was a great depression in commercial matters ; copper was very scarce. From Bolivia we learn that scarcely had Belzu loft before revolutionary move ments broke out in various places. On the 16th of September Colonel Gutierrez, Dr. Tapia, Gen. Lanza, and Colonels Montalvo, Yanes, Marin, and many others raised the revolutionary standard in Pucanori. General Molena, with a force of about 100 men and 2 guns, marched to attack the revo lutionists, but Lanza, hearing of his approach, left the town ; he was, however, afterwards met by the Government forces, and Zapata and Moscoso, two of the revolutionary leaders, were killed. In Corocoro Dr. Linares and others also got up a revolutionary movement, but it was put down by the National Guard, and the arrival of the cavalry who had accompanied Belzu to the coast. Linares and the other leaders escaped. Some of the perio dicals of La Paz state that the revolution is quite put down in the north, but in Oruro, Cochleanba, Santa Cruz, and La Sierra all was not yet quiet. In Peru the Convention still continued in ses sion. The question of religious toleration was exciting great interest. The press complains of the disorganised state of affairs at the Chincha Islands, and the insubordination of the labourers. Letters had been received from the gold-hunting party wh o starte d for the Amazons under the au spices of Government ; they had experienced many hardships. Gold was found by the Indians in the neighbourhood of Pancartumbo ; it is described as similar to the gold of Australia. By way of Callao we receive Australian intelli gence to the 18th of August. The political news is not important. Flour had fallen. The demand for gold exceeded the supply. Her Majesty's ship Espiegle sailed from Ja maica on the 24th ult. for Bermuda, to assist in a court-martial to be held on the captain and officers of the lost ship Wolverine. The crew of the Termagant, lying at Jamaica, had all got the fever, and had lost one man. THE PENINSULAR MAILS. SOUTHAMPTON, TUESDAY NIGHT. ]3 , the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-ship Tagus, Captain Weeks, wo have dates from Gibraltar to November 4 ; Cadiz, 5 ; Lisbon, 9 ; and Oporto and Vigo, 10.

The screw steam-ship Frankfort, seven days from Liverpool, arrived at Gibraltar on the 30th ult. Exchange on London, for bills at 90 days, was quoted at 51 ; Paris, sf. 39c. MARKET NEWS.—(This Day). CORN EXCHANGE. An unusually small supply of English wheat was on sale here to-day. All kinds were in request at the extreme rates of Monday, but the business doing was limited. Foreign wheat, the show of which was limited, was firm, but not dearer. The imports are, 5,330 quarters, chiefly from New York. Floating cargoes of grain were held on higher terms. We had a good demand for barley at fully Monday's cur- rency. Malt sold to a fair extent at late rates. There was rather more doing in oats at full prices. Beans and peas unaltered.

TILE LUSSI AN GISNE RA 12 S R f_POhT OF TELE ASSAULT €)N KABS. _ The following is the first portion of General Moura viefi's detailed report of the assault on Kars : ATDE DE CAMP GENERAL MOURAVIEFF'S REPORT, DATED OCT. 12, 1855. Informed of the reinforcements received by the Turk ish troops in the environs of Batoum, and of the enemy's intention to advance simultaneously in the Gcuriel and towards Akhaltzick from one side, and on the other, from Erzeroutn, in the direction of Kars, I determined to profit by the existing state of the garrison there, and on Sept. 27 assembled a council of war. Every member • pronounced for an attack. It is necessary to say, by way of preface, that the for tress of Kars, which is situated upon the right hank of the river Kars-Tehai, has been strengthened by new for tifications, forming a chain along the heights surrounding the city. Amongst those fortifications are some re doubts, connected by curtains, erected upon the left bank of the Kars-Tchai, upon the heights of Sehorakb, nearly three versts from the city. Another line of forti fications extends more to the north of the city, also upon the left bank of the river, and upon the height ofTchakh makli. To unite these fortifications, and to protect the space between them, a redoubt, called a citadel, and many separate lunettes, have been erected. The Kara dagh heights upon the right bank of the Kars-Tchai are protected by fortifications, and the part of the fortress on the side of the plain has been strengthened bya triple range of entrenchments. The space of the whole line of defence forms a circuit of 13 versts. Tue greater part of the army of Anatolia, which is composed of the best troops, was stationed upon the heights of Schorakb. The fortifications here are feebler, and the heights command all the others. It was hoped then that in becoming masters of this part, Kars would be ours. For this reason it was decided to carry these heights by an assault, and Sept. 29 was the day fixed. The following were our arrangements decided upon : The troops intended to take part in the assault were divided into four columns. 1. The first column commanded by Lieut.-General Kovaleski, was to assemble before and at the left of the Observatory Hill (at the east of the heights of Schorakh), from whence, after the second column had approached the fortifications and commenced the assault, it was to advance and attack the right flank of the enemy's po sition. 2. The second column, under the orders of Major- General Maidel, had for its point of reunion the Stol bill (at the south-east of the heights of Schorakh) • it was ordered to be at the foot of the Moukh hill at 4 o'clock in the morning. It had for instructions, " whether per ceived by the enemy or not," and immediately after arriving at the assigned post, i.e., at a little height on this side, and a little to the left of the Moukh bill, to bring forward to this hill the Light Battery No. 1, to protect two companies of the battalion of the Caucasian tirailleurs and a company of sappers. This column was directed, moreover, to continue to advance in three lines, and, with a division of miners, in the greatest possible silence, and to take possession without firing—at least unless forced to do so—of the battery at the extreme left of the enemy's flank, or mote to our right. The commander, Dobrynine, received the order after our infantry had occupied the enemy's heights to pursue him and not give him time to re-form hi s ranks. In order that there might be more uniformity of action in the attack of the first and second columns, a column was placed between them, under the command of Lieut.- General Gagarine, to follow the first ; its rallying point was the village of Schorakb, to the left of the Observa tory Hill. 3. The third column, commanded by Major• General Count Nyrod, after assembling at the village of the Little Tikme, was to advance to the right of the village of Haut.Karadjouran, and to take up position at 1,000 sagenes from the enemy's batteries. The column of reserve, under the command of Lieut.- General Brummer, was to keep watch on the north side of Kars. At the same time I caused Major-General Bazine's detachment to advance near Kars, and place itself in connexion with Major-General Baklanoff's detachment ; these two detachments were ordered to act mul taneously from the side of Tchakhmakh, under the superi•.;r corn mand of Major-General Bazine. I pointed out to each of these columns the disposition and the order of attack. The general attack was to commence at four o'clock in the mcrning in order to prevent the enemy from being able to point his pieces and taking aim. Wishing to keep my intention of assaulting the fortress of Kars in the greatest secrecy, I caused our troops to advance by detnchments on the preceding days, and ac cording to the general arrangement, the infantry returned to the principal camp, and three sotnias of the No. 2. Re giment of Mu,sulman Cavalry, and a sotnia of the No. 1 Regiment of the same cavalry, were left in the village of Nijnie-Kotauly to watch the road on the side of Sagan loug. Here follows the description of the march made by these columns to reach their respective positions. The latter were occupied in the greatest order at the hour appointed—viz., four o'clock in the morning—and where were General Bazine's and Major-General Balt!anon detachments, which remained at the toot of the heights of Teliakmalth up t) half-past four in the morning ; while the second column, under the command of General Maidcl, got through the obstructions of its position, and advanced boldly against the fortifications. It arrived without being seen up to within 400 sagenes, and the Light Battery No. 1, with the companies of sappers and skirmishers which had been attached to it, had already succeeded in reaching the right declivity of the hiP, when the Turks fired the first volley from the Fort Tomas- Tabia. It was three-quarters past 4a m. AU the other piece> arranged upon the front of this fort then opened fire, to which was soon added that of the skirmi s h ers and musketeers of the Turkish infantry, who, upon tVesigrio:l of alarm, threw thempelves upon the ramparts and in the f;sses which had been prepared for the skirmishers in front of the fort. The infantry of the second column advanced at a quick step, protected by the Battery No. 1, already in and whose well-aimed volleys throw the enemy into con fusion. Arrived within musket-shot of the fortifications, General Maidel gave the crier to attack, and our in fantry advanced at a run. A part of the Mirgrelian re giment, commanded / by Colonel Serebriakoff, marched to the space between the two forts, and the rest of the regiments, under the orders of Major Baum, went to the rid ht of the redoubt which flanks them, while the C Ira biuiers, commanded. by Colonel Moller, went towards their right flank. The let and 21 battalions b-bily ad vanced to the ramparts, and the 4th went ;-.lungthe road t.) get round them. At the sam e ti me t h e hill p i eces taken from the Turks at Peniack, and which occupied spaces in the first line, opened a fire of grapeshot. Battalions of the second line advanced at a running step ; the troops of the first line rushed to the a,satit with cries of " Hurrah," attacked - with bayonet the Turks who occupied the outer fosses, leaped upon the ramparts, ran en muse against the Turkish infantry, who were there put to the route, and took possession of part of the guns. At the same time the Carabiniers of the Erivan regiment, under the chief, De Moller, sprang up)n the battery, and seized two pieces on its extreme outer angle. Two other pieces were taken by Major Baum's Haus upon th e s id e b or d er i ng upon the reclouot, ° but here the success of these troops was checked by the bat teries erected at the right of these redoubts, and by the redoubts themselves, the sides of which had been lately carried up from the side of the gorge to the same height as those in the front. Following- the battalions of the first line the second penetrated the fortifications. Tee captain second in command succeeded in bringing in his hill pieces. General Maidel himself led his troops upon the redoubts and batteries still occupied by the Turks, while the captain of the staff Romanovski caused the cava'ry and the rest of the infantry to advance, and turned them partly against the Turks, who fought re t eating from the rampart, and partly a7aindt the enemy's masses commencing to assemble in the camps behind the fortifications ; the nearest were dispersed at the point of the bayonet, and pursued even into their very camps by our infantry. The I..lter then charged the Turks, who fired upon them from hiding places Lhind the tents, stone constructions, and from the ravines ; these Turks were almost all put to the sword. The first camp was thus carried. Meanwhile the cavalry, preceded by the noble militia, under the orders of Prince Tzitzianoff, and by a sotnia of the combined regiment of the line No. 1, turned to the right of the first camp, where, charging the masses of Turks com mencing to assemble behind the tents, sabred a great number on the spot, carried off a flag, and then rushed into the second camp. In the interim, the infantry, led by Generl Maidel in person against the 4-gun battery of the centre redoubt, took possession of this battery, which was taken by Lieut. Pillar de Pillhau, of the regiment of his Royal Highness the Grand Duke Constantine's Greuadietrse, who, in spite of the fire of grape-shot and rifles froalc,ml redoubt, threw himself upon the battery with his took pany, killed its attendants upon the spot, a , , 031T1tt possession of the four pieces, two of which away, and the other two thrown from the ram eprttim.ePfirro,t- Ring by this success, General Maidel battalion of the skirmishers of the regiment n grelians upon directedentf the Guard upon the first central redoubt and th the second, causing them to be supported by a detach- r om the side of th e ment which was to watch the enemy camp=, During all this time, a part of the Turkish troops oc cupying the heights of S odc ho w r i a t k ii h tl a w nd eo t l h u e m o n t s h o er f n L e i a e r li e t s . t . fortifications w as General Kovalevski engagedand Lieut.-General Prince Gagarm., which h Mid or -General had commenc_aedtet a ttack almost at th e same tir n e as These ,:olum ns were in front Maj as Noon as the canno nade _was opened.

No. 2 Batt ery L ad opened its fire from the position which it occupied, and this it continued until it was masked by the troops, who marched to the assault. The troops of the centre column were directed upon t h e redoubt which attacked the Mingrelians of the Maidel column with the exception of a division of the Battery No. 4 of the fourth battalion of the regiment of Touts, a company of Sappers, and a company of skir mishers, who were left in reserve.

The battalions ofthe Wilna regiment maintained thei position in the fosse, although overwhelmed by balls and bullets and pieces of stone thrown upon them by the Turks. Ere long the latter opened a heavier fire of grape shot from the two flank batteries against the battalions. Lieut.-General Kovalevski was here mortally wounded. Colonel Keeloff, commander of the Below regiment, was also wounded, and a great part of the superior officers of the two regiments were killed or wounded. Amongst them Colonel of the Staff Roudanovskii, Quartermaster- General, Captain of the Staff Raditch. Moreover, all the officers attached to Lieu t.-Gen.Kovalevski were killed or wounded. Capt.Kagnatchee, of the corps of Engineers who had beon attached to my person, and whom I had sent to this column, was pierced with three balls. Meanwhile the horse volunteer] had rushed to the right of the infantry, and, in spite of a most violent fire, penetrated the fortifications • but the movement of the infantry of this column not having succeeded, they were obliged to retire. At the same time the skirmishers of the centre column, also the second battalion of the Riajsk regiment, which supported them, reached, through a terrible fire of grape-shot and musketry, the arms, took to fl emy's battery. ght Here th e T urks, throwing down their Tire battalions of the second line, which had taken the left, were received by a cross fire from the central fort of Tornas-Tibia and its adjacent redoubts. Here Lieut. General Gagarine and two chiefs of battalion were grievously wounded. Of six chiefs of the company three were killed and the others wounded. These battalions, which had not reached the fort, then joined those of the first column, which having lost the greater part of its superior chiefs and officers, began to retreat. Soon afterwards the enemy succeeded in concentrat ing considerable masses of forces against the skirmishers and the second battalion of the Riajsk regiment, already enfeebled by its losses. Here were killed Col. Brest schinskii, chief of battalion, and Captain Khlioustine, chief of company; this battalion was then obliged to abandon the battery it had occupied, and to join the trrops of the first column. I then transferred the command of these two columns to Colonel Prince Dondoukoff-Korsakoff, who, after bringing them upon the hei g ht s w hi c h stretch to the left of the Kourgan, where the Battery No. 2 was, re formed them, and made the combined Regiment No. 2 of the Cossacks of the line, and two divisions of Dra goons advance to cover their retreat. At the same time he caused the wounded to be collected by the Cos. sacks. The Battery No. 2, which opened its fire against the i enemy's batteries, facilitated these operations. After, _ the troops had been re-fo rme d, th ey were arranged in.,. _,....z . % . .........,, ~. the following order:—A ootnia of Cossacks, with the- section No. 2 of the battery of fuseens, occupied the elevation where the No. 2 Battery was ; behind came the infantry, and more to the left , two divisions of dra goons with the horse battery.

The works on thi: line are proceeding satisfactorily. The first section cif the railway from Usk to Little Mill is now ready for traffic, and will be opened to the public when the arrangements for working it are completed. INVERNESS AND NAIRN. This line was opened for public traffic on Wednesday, and the number of passengers was much greater than had been anticipated. The length of the line is 20 miles. The passenger trains consist of first and third-class car riages, there being no second-class. Several trial trips were made, and four excursion trains passed over the line prior to the day of opening it for public traffic. The advantages of railway accommodation appear to be highly appreciated in the district through which the line passes, and the event of its opening was celebrated in a very cordial manner by the inhabitants.
