The following is from the Liverpool Journal : Mr. Thomas Carlyle, the " Oracle of Chelsea," was pressed to take the chair at a farewell dinner, to be given in London to Mr. Gavan Duffy, previous to that gentle man's departure f)r Au,tralia. The following letter, addressed to Mr. James Hannay, the noveliqt, has been elicited, very characteristic of Mr. Carlyle and very complimentary to Mr. Duffy, as indeed is the fact that uentleinen of all parties and schools—witness Mr. Hannay, himself a thorough Tory—are joining in the dinner : " Addiscombe Farm, Croydon, sth Sept., 1855. Dear Hannay.—Some short time ago I received a circular, with E. Whitty's signature, on the same sub ject as your note, and was well pleased to learn that such a project was in agitation on behalf of Duffy—to which I wished all success very sincerely. though myself unable to take part in it. I have a real regard, and even affection for Duffy, whose fine, truthful intellect, and ardent humane character, were always recognisable to me, in the worst tumult cf Irish confusions. His course, then, which I never could applaud for wis dom, nor rebuke without pity and respect, has all along seemed to me one of the most tragical—and surely it has been troublous enough, tumbling in the wake of that monster of Barney, Big 0., and his " justice for Ireland" (the ugliest impo'tor ge nerated in my time), and, alas ! it ends in a sufficiently mournful manner, though in a manful and pathetic one, on my poor friend Duffy's part ! I would gladly go and testify these feelings on his behalf, wherever it might be useful or suitable ; but, on the other hand, I can per ceive this dinner will not be the place for me to do it ; but for others differently related to it than I, and who probably have somewhat other feelings to express. In short, there are multifarious reasons admonishing ab sence on my part—two reasons, were there no other : Permanent wish to steer clear to windward of O'Con nellism, and of the anti-ditto, in all their branches ; an d, secondly, the misery I undergo in all public dinners' whatsoever. I pray you, therefore, let me be excused, and be beliaved, at the same time, to wish the enter prise heartily well, as I do,—Yours very truly, " T, CAALTLE." zz 411111. // •-,•. . = . . . . _a 1 .. ,4 ...- , V ~ ... .---,--- 11.4 f'f, - ..40.1 if can • AG ..2" . ; 4 . t if ......

SEPTEMBER 10 1855. PI OGRESS OF THE SIEGE. CAMP BEFORE SEBASTOPOL, AUG. 27. The state of tension in which we were kept during the greater part of last week, in daily and almost hourly expectation of an attack, has somewhat relaxed during the last 24 hours, although every precaution continues to be taken. On the night from Friday to Saturday our commanders seem to have felt very confident that some thing serious would occur ; everybody was afoot or in' readiness to turn out at an instant's notice, and dusty and disgusted enough looked some of the Staff after knocking about all night in anticipation of a fight that came not. It was doubtless in consequence of the severe extra duty thus entailed on officers as well as men that the ceremony of the investiture of the Order of the Bath was postponed until 2 o'clock to-day, when it is to take plaee with due pomp at General Simpson's head-quarters. On the 18th, however, very few of our poor fellows aaaohed even thus far the desolating storm of the enemy's fire having swept them down be fore they could cross; the intervening space. Beyond this hedgerow of stakes runs the line of earthworks which connects the Redan' with the. Malak hoff bill ; and a short way higher up, as the eye tracee the ascent of the slope, are seen the mixed gabions and sandbags which form the inner face'of the parapets of the new French trenches in front of the Mamelon. At first glance the distance between the most advanced of these saps and the Round Tower seems not more than fifty yards, hut it is in reality above a hundred, and that a space;too, of the most broken and difficult ground over which attacking troops could have to move. Narrow also as is this belt of ground between the besieged and their assailants, the former have very boldly occupied a portion of it with their sharpshooters, and from these deadly marksmen the French suffer heavily. The Mamelon plays upon their hiding-places with grape and shell; but tinder 'cover of the'inequalities of the ground, and the additional shelter which they have managed to throw up for themselves, they hold out, and daily and nightly play havoc amongst our ally's gunners, both within the Mamelon itself and the battery in advance. The surface features of the ground in this direction hay, been so often described in your tutins that I need not at present repeat th e s k e t c h ; w ith tote aid of s glass th, whole can be seen from far behind; say either otir owe Twenty-one Battery or the French Victoria Redoubt. with quite as great clearness as from this nearer and less safe point of observation with the n4ed eye. This fifth parallel being the limit of our arkroach towards the town, one's optic* can only be intjEcived from it through the confined and rather unsafe outlet 61 a rifle loophole ; , and even through this inconvenient opening the surve; • taken must be rapid and spasmodic Bough if one would avoid courting Minie compliments from the sharp eyed and watchful sportsmen some hundred and fift3 yards ahead. These loopholes are small portholes, so to speak, through the upper portion of the parapti of about four inches square, and so distributed as to be ret. di red as far as possible indistinguishable front the accidental openings and inequalities between th sand-bags along the top. Narrow' And concealed a tt ey are. however, many a' death-wound has been re. eel ee ti .rough them, and along the sides of not a fe e: are to be seen traces of the leaden missiles from the enemy's pieces. Still, from these Or men keep up : pretty citnetant fire into the embrasures f the Redan, an, upon the lurking places of the riflemen in its front- Pretec ed a , the ferintr are by the thick network cutta, of rope which hangs over each gun,it, Is rare, however, that a bullet can penetrate, unless it hrppens to enter I.teugh the very limit, d opt nieg left h r annieg the gut . THE ORDER OF THE BATH. MONDAY NIGHT. The ceremony of the investiture of the Order of th. Bath came off to-day between 1 and 2 o'clock. Sir B Jones was ill and unable to attend, and Lord Stratton rle Redcliffe went to his quarters and invested him there L rd Stratf.rd, I think I mentioned in my last, ar freed here two days ago, accompanied by Lord Napier. M. Pisani, Mr. Moore, Mr. Brodie, Mr. Allison, and b Dr. Tice, staff-surgeon, as medical attendant. Ti. place where to day's ceremony came off was a squat-. court in front of General Simpson's quarters. One Sid. if the court is formed by tbe long, low building occupie. by the English Commander-in-Chief, two others b 3 tables and outbuildings, while the fourth is open t. the downs. This square, over which, a year ago, Crimean pigs and poultry grunted and crowed, glittered to-day with British and French uniforms, gilding, and embroidery. At the entrance to the house a sort of tent was formed of flags. Above waved the standard of England, flanked by the British ensign and French tricolour, and by the Sat diniate and Turkish colours. The square of build ings s'as lined by another of troops—detachments re Guards, Rifles, Line, Arti!lery, Cavalry, and Naval Bri Bade. From the side facing the house there extended 1. double lie, of lancer sentres along a gentle slope, at the extremity of which guns were in readiness to fire ti salute. Inside the square assembled a number of office: I. n full dress. Outside were other officers and a few oiti flans, among whom some ladies' riding habits were to h observed. General Pelissier came in his carriage, evi. his staff, and other French 'generals were there. TI. corpulent person. and—dark couple-then. of -ilre Frenci commander contracted strikingly with General Sitnpsore. tall, slender figure and white hair. When all wer e -Fembled the ceremony was proceeded with. Lore Stratford made a dignified speech, which acquired addi tic nal interest from the circumstances. He remark, on the unprecedented nature of the investiture, occu . ring. as it did, almost on the ground where the servicr . had been rendered and the exploits achieved for whir, the holeiur was conferred, and almost under fire of tr. Enemy's guns. As he spoke the words a loud boom {roe the batteries gave peculiar appropriateness to his expre sine a end a dramatic interest to the scene. Sir Coll: Campl ell and Sir Edmund Lyons each spoke& few word in reply. The troops presented arms, the baud plays " God save the Queen," the artillery fired a Roya salute, and then the force assembled, which about 1,00. men, flied tiff, and the numerous groups of office, • eliorth is It the ground. The pageant was favoured Io a brilliant sunshine, tempered by a pleasant breeze, an, could not have gone off better. OPENING OF SOYER'S KITCHFN. Later in the afternoon we had a spectacle of a dif leterit kind, but, in its humble way, of a not less int,- restine nature. Soyer, the Regenerator, now the camp co. k par excellence, opened his kitchens on the esplanads in front of the Guards' camp. A row of huge iron loiter, supple d each one its diff. rent soup or stew, core cected entirely from the rations daily furnished to the troops. From tbe summit of a large marquee fluttered the French and English colours ; smaller flags waved gaily over the enclosure, which was formed by garland, of foliage. The guests, who were very numerous, psi._ due homage to the savoury cauldrons, the depth ce which alone saved them from speedy exhaustion. There was bo denying the excellence of the cookery. Five o'clock is a hungry hour in the Crimea ; and I wan answer for it that few of the guests contented themselves with merely tasting. General Simpson smiled approba. tion of the skill of the French artiste, and General Pe, lissier seemed highly to enjoy his countryman's potags. A great number of persons were present. There were rice pudding and Cossack plumpudding (all rations), snug tents, with champagne, and the most crystalline of ice (not rations), and Soyer was voted, net. Con., the worthy chef of the army in the Crimea.' To speak seri ously, he will render real service if he teaches the sol dier, as I understand he proposes to do, to make the most of the very excellent materials now supplied to him, and which hitherto have unquestionably been more or less wasted through ignorance of a few of the simplest laws of the gastronomic science. neighbourhood of the monastery -of St. George ; but— I don't know whether from change of diet, or because they were already too far gone—many of them have died, and the two valleys, so sweet formerly, are now anything but sweet, for the carcasses are left lying about or thrown among the bushes without any vultures to feast upon them. If one remembers the host of those scavengers which infested us during the winter in this part it seems strange that there is not one seen now- Whether they have been disgusted by the numbers of paid Tartar and Croat scavengers enlisted by the allied armies, and feared to starve, or whether they found more choice morsels on the Russian side, where there may be likewise a good deal to excite their gluttony, or, lastly, whether they are driven away by the heat I can not tell. CAMP OF THE ALLIED ARMIES ON THE TCHERNAYA, Aug. 2. We are still living in continual apprehension of a Rus sian attack, although no more is heard of the day when it is to take place. As sailors at the signs of an immi nent storm make everything snug and shorten sail, so we draw in the more exposed posts, strengthen our po , 4ition, bring up reserves, and try to provide for every emergency which might occur. THE ENGLISH CAVALRY. In consequence of the daily apprehension of an attack the English cavalry is regularly turning out every morn ing and coming down to the valley, as it was haunting the ground where its comrades fell, and watching an opportunity to revenge them. The disasters which be fell our cavalry last year have left no trace, and, Phoenix like, it has arisen more brilliant than ever from , its ashes. The effect is imposing—perfect, one might say, if anything human could be called so. Hnrees and , nen are in excellent condition—as fit for work as any cavalry can be. It would, however, not be at all de. irable that this daily turn-out should continue. It has, , ndeed, the advantage of saving the turning out for darade, so that the horses rest after they back from the alley, except to go down for water ; but if those daily 'naming rides are to last, they will soon bring down the horses in condition, and then they would have some lifficulty in facing a Crimean winter, even in good tables. Thus last year I think it was chiefly this cir :•umstance which was fatal to the horses. They had in ieptember and October harassing outpost duties to do, nd you could see every day detachments of cavalry hunting sly Cossacks to , ards the Tchernaya, so that he horses were in very indifferent condition when the irst rains began, and their weakened constitutions caul I io more face hunger, wet, and cold. TEE SARDINIANS. The Sardinians, who. from the very begi.ming had teen encamped on this-side, were only rarely seen about -he British camp, and the intercourse was mostly con ined to a passing "bona," which seem to have become the first universally received word in the cosmopolitan niguage which is forming itself out here. There was touch more companionship between the French and 'iedmnntese, as many of the latter as well as Savoyards peak French,. and because they were close neighbours n the Tchernaya. But from all one sees, now that airy .re close to each other, the inability to express their feel -I:igs does not prevent the Highlanders and Piedmontese rom entertaining reciprocal feelings of good will, the eighbouring canteens furnishing the means of eloquence t both parties. Scarcely three days have passed since heir first acquaintance, and the copious mixture of red , eats with grey ones must strike every eye. The Sardi iian ba-id, which is playing every evening on an open pace in the centre of the Piedmontese camp, seems to be 'he rendezvous where the first step is made. I don't Know whether it be by the law of contrasts, or from the toincidence that both are distinguished from the rest of .heir respective armies by their peculiar dress, but it eerns to me that the most intimate intercourse exists oetween the tiny Bersaglieri and the tall Highlanders. OMER PAORA.. Omer Pacha is expected every moment. Yesterday he horses were sent down again for him to Kamiesh. fe will retain the command of the Torkish troops in ;le Crimea, visit Yenikale and Eupatoria, and then go o Asia, taking with him a division from here. There is tot much chance of his doing anything there this year ; .he season is too far advanced, and in a month, or at asst six weeks, the campaigning season for that part viii be over. He may, however, do much in re-organis ,,ig the army during the winter. 4 7XTRAOTS PROM A LETTER FROM AV ENG LISH OFFICER, PRISONER IN SEBASTOPOL, TO HIS BROTHER. AIIOUST.—No description of mine could give you an Ldequate idea of the misery existing within this fort. .Vlien our army was in the greatest distress last winter, ce were healthy and happy compared with what the Russian troops in Sebastopol have been s'n .e Z was made L prisoner, and, by all accounts, I r months before. All • ;inks appear to see and feel that sooner or later the lace must fall, and in private the officers say openly :tat had there been but one head instead of two direct- g the allied armies, Sebastopol would long ago have "-en in possession of the French and English. The iqmers are well cared for, particularly the , fficers, by Russian authorities, and have little to complain of esond loss of liberty. The scoundrels who deserted 'rem our ranks to the enemy have long ago found out ieir mistake, I fancy. They are are greatly distrusted by heir new friends, and kept in a sort of dishonouiable -urveillanc , , but looked very strictly after. One of them, miscreant who deserted some time ago from one of the lighland regiments, bad the insolence to speak to me !;e other day, and complain that he was "worse treated ~a n the prisoners." He asked, " what would be his to if Sebastopol fell into the hands of the allies ; would he be shot ?" I replied, "certainly not ; that he would .e hung before the whole army, and by the hands of the lowest Greek or Bulgarian that could be found in !amp." . . . . . It is surprising how well the Russians know every thing that goes on in our camp : there must be many spies in our lines. The Russians speak of the bravery of our men, infantry -end cavalry, as something perfectly marvellon , , but they seem to think our troops are not well handled by the zeneyals, and that we thus throw away our best chances. An artillery officer confessed to me the other day that in the open field, with equal numbers, an English army would get the best of a fight, "unless," he added, "your superior officers let the %hole affair be lost by want of arrangement and utter confusion." Nearly all the younger Russian officers, and many of the seniors, speak English perfectly well, so I can get on pretty well in spite of not knowing a word of French ; but this is a weary life ; I often wish myself back in London, or even with the old depot at Cork or Fermoy. The - Russian officers think we were insane to attack the Redan as well as the Malakoff. If the latter was taken, the former must have fallen ! but if the Malakoff had been held by the Russians, no troops in the world could have held the Redan. They gay if the combined forces of the allies had "gone in for" the Malakoff on the famous 18th, Pelissier and Lord Raglan would have commanded within Sebastopol. But that chance has passed, I think. Carlton House, as known to many of our readers, occupied that portion of Waterloo-place which is south of Pall-mall. The name of the original architect, in the time of Queen Anne, is not knnwn ; but the cele brated landscape gardener-architect Kent laid out the grounds when the property was in Lord Burlington's hands, between 1725 and 1732. These gardens ex tended along the south side of Pall-mall, and are said to have been in imitation of Pope's garden at Twickenham, with numerous bowers, grottoes, and terminAl busts. Mr. Cunningham speaks of an engrav ing of them by Woollett. The property came into the possession of the father of' George 111., and being as iigned as the residence of the prince—afterwards George IV.—in 1783. great alterations were made under Hol land. In accorciance with that system of waste in ex penditure on public works which prevails most in con nection with royal palaces, the costly fabric under notice was of very short duration. It was taken down in 1827. The riding-house and stable., however, remain. The main front of the house had a central portico and projecting ends, the walls being rust•i cated, and the portico being partly rece-sed, and partly projecting, leaving a wide intereolutt nin the , ink for a carriage•drive under. This very desirable arrangement, however, involved an appearance of weak ness, and in spite of the grouping of internal columns. The columns have been used again at the National Gal lery, though denuded of much of the decoration.—The Builder. [ADVERTIS7MENT.]--Hollnway's Ointment and Pills are superior Remedies for Bad Leg..—Extract of a let ter from Mr. Samuel Shannon, baker, Mill-street, New townards :—" Tu Professor Holloway. Sir,—For eight ) ears I suffered with a bad leg, which confined me to bed for months together ; it was completely black, and swollen to an enormous size. I consulted at different times sixteen medical men, but derived no benefit by their treatment.

The latest movements in the Turf Market have con tributed little to the stock of information which the public already possess respecting the probable compe titors for the St. Leger. One important demonstration was, however, made on Saturday, and it has since been well sustained. Lord of the Isles retreated under the effect of a powerful " battery" which was opened against him, and the discomfiture of his partisans seems com plete. That he will recover his lost position is impro bable, for the opposition which he encountered came from well-informed quarters, and was steady and deter mined. The precise cause of the horse's retrogression is not exactly known ; but it is generally believed that the fears which were excited about his strait stilty legs have been realised, and that he has broken down. Under these circumstances, therefore, it would be useless to discuss the St. Leger pretensions of Lord of the Isles. 111-omened reports have been industriously circulated about Rifleman. The tactics of his party have been questioned and "intentions" brought under suspicion. The betting is, however, uninfluenced by these unfavour able rumours, whose only foundation is apparently in ill-nature and prejudice. If they had any other origin their effect on the market would be at once perceived, for dismay would be rapidly spread through the ranks of his partisans, and Rifleman would retrograde point by point in the betting. Ever since his elevation to the premiership he has through good and through evil report maintained his position with significant steadiness, and the powerful reaction in favour of Oulston has not evi dently shaken the confi lence of his supporters. In for mer commurications I have set forth at length the soundness of Rifleman's pretensions, and on Thursday last I brought his chance into no "odious comparison" with that of Oulston. The betting has attested the truth of the remarks which I then made, and the result of the race seems likely to prove the soundness of the' opinions I expeessed. I then stated, " Were I well on' Oulston and Rifleman, I should await the issue of the encounter with no desponding expectations." Events have confirmed my partiality for these two horses, and I have no hesitation in stating my conviction that I deem the race virtually reduced to a match between them. Oulston will go to the post with all the advan tages of a Danebury preparation, and it is said that his condition will be such as to in- pire his partisans with hope and confidence. The pace will, it is expected, 1 e tremendous, and fears are entertained of the effect which the hardness of the ground will preduce upon Rifleman's legs, whilst the opponents of Oulston aver that the com petitors will go " such a du-ter" up the hill that the Danebury horse, who is reported " thickened in the wind," will be completely " choked off." These fore bodings, however, lam not inclined to entertain. The comparative merit of Rifleman and Oulston has been so frequently discussed, and their performances are so wed known to the merest turf tyro, that I shall not occupy spice by a re-consideration of the subject, to which it is i:npossible to impart either novelty or instruction. Capucino may be deemed the third favourite. H e r running at York was sufficient to excite expectations of her chat-ice, which must not, however, be too sanguinely indulged. "Scott's lot" makes no figure in the betting. l i Whether it will be represented by Grmculus Esuriene or Marchioness, or by both those animals, it is some what difficult to determine. Report states that Grrcculus is sound and well, but short of preparation, whilst Mar chioness is, it is asserted, dead amiss. The truth or falsity of these rumours I have hal no opportunity of discovering. Whichever animal John Scott starts shall not be slightingly regarded by A Fresh Man. Of the outside division, however, no animal appears to me so worthy of notice as Rotherham, who ba,4, when least expected, displayed racing ability of a somewhat high order. He is a fine-looking horse, with splendid action, and may occupy a prominent place in the return of the aace. Little trustworthy information is obtainable about the Clementine, colt, who, however, is believed to be an animal of a superior stamp. Whether he will be allowed to start is not yet determined, as, Sir Roger de Coverley would say, much may be said on both sides of the ques tion lam inclined to take Admiral Rous's views of the matter. The uncertainty, however, which at pre sent exists relative to the qualification of the Clomen tins colt comil&s me, whatever favourable opinion I might other xisze be inclined to entertain of the horse, to disregard his chance entirely and allow no consideration of it to affect the conclusion at which I have arrived as to the result of the race. Saucebox, Blooming Heather, and other outsiders, have pretensions too slender to require notice. Mr. Puff says that when critics agree their unanimity is wonderful. The same remark applies with equal force to sporting writers, who have only with one exception pronounced judgment in favour of the " Squire's Horse," still, although I am compelled to record my preference ARRIVAL OF THE 56TH REGIMENT. The Highlanders having been countermanded from trench duty on Friday evening, and marched over to Kamara at 2 o'clock in the morning to support the Sar. dinians, - the Guards alone went to the trenches, and con sequently the Light Division remained there 36 hours, instead of 24. The Guards had two casualties among the officers—Colonel Francis Seymour, wounded, not seriously, and Captain Drummond shot through the lungs. Hopes are entertained of saving the latter officer's life. The Highland Division? came back to camp on Saturday, and returned to Kamara at night, to re main there, as they expect, about a week. The 56th Regiment, about 800 strong, having arrived at Bala klava, were detained a day or two on board ship, until their destination should be decided upon, It had been intended to send them to Kertch ; on Saturday it was' said they would go" to Kwilara ; but they have finally been annexed to the First Division. Th. army continues to get under arms before daybreak, cavalry and all. Yesterday the latter arm turned out 2,950 British a.ibres and lances, and, had needs been, 500 or 600 more could have been brought into the field, It is a pity that active employment cannot be found for this fine body of horsemen, who assuredly need but the opportunity nobly to distinguish themse'ves. MEDITATED ATTAOK ON BALAKLAVA. Although many here : have been disposed to treat as idle rumour and even to turn into ridicule the reports that the Russians meditated an attack on Balaklava, it vould appear that this danger has not been disregarded it head-quarters, where information has doubi less been received on the subject. The Leander aid Diamor,c: frigates have been lying moored ty a single cable, and Lieut. Fletcher, commanding the Triton war-steamer, has directions to be in readiness to get his steam up at brief notice, and tow them out of Balaklava harbour to a position whence their guns would bear on the Marine Heights. A RUSSIAN " SURPRISE." It is unnecessary and inexpedient to detail the parti• culars of our own preparative measures ; but I may re mark that they are such as to leave small ground for fear that the enemy's attempt, if it be made, will turn out a " surprise " to any but themselves. If rape, canister, musket-balls, and hayonets can repel them, their ad vance will be short and their retreat rapid. The bridge of boats which they commenced throwing across the harbour last week is all but completed, and, from it , hrea ith and apparent strength, will pernit of the pas sage of the heaviest field artillery. Whatever may be o special purpose for wh ch this structure is being put together, some important purpose it bag, and the fact that it will be capable of greatly facilitating the move ments for some such attack as I have mentioned gives a strong degree of inferential proof to the information received from our spies. We know, of course, that the main force of the enemy's moveable soldiery is at present on the north side, and, with the aid of this new bridge, fifteen or twenty thouiand of these, with any number of heavy field guns, could be thrown into the town in less time tha, as many hundreds cull be ferried over by the few steamer in the harbour ; whilst, should the attempt prove a failure, a ready and safe nif , ams of retreat would be available for both men and materiel. ANTICIPATIONS OF PEACE Notwithstaiiding all these preparations for action, I repeat that people seem less confident, or, at any rate, talk less of that which two or three days ago every one declared to be iininieent ; aid last evening some san. guine spirits, . who doubtle-s, and with good reason, would prefer a day on the moors to a night in rho trenches, were heard ieinfidently to predict approaching peace. The Russians, 'they declared, could sustain the contest no longer, owing to the wait of water and the difficulty of obtaining supplies ; their final attempt had been made at the ac.ioe of the 16th, and, finding them selves totally repulsed with heavy loss at the point they had selected as offering most chances of succeee, they would not risk another aback, but would yield, treat for peace, make the necessary cenceesions, and in a ceuole of months the Biitish army would go home again. T-1- hopefulness of youth and a certain vivacity of imagilia tion may doubtless (pally a man to produce rose-tinted sketches of this kind, and there certainly can be nu manner of question as to the immense superiority of a merry Christina. in England to a inuddy one On Balaklava's heights any more than of that of the. smoking sirloin and tenderly-fed turkey over Crenea'is lean kine and fowls thet refuse to he fattened. But there is no magic in wishes any more than in words, and it is to be feared that these prophets of peace underrate the Russian's tenacity and endurance. It is certain that his position is ,a difficult one, if, as is now the growing belief, he runs short of water and cannot get up supplies fast enough for the number iif men necessary to hold his position. Teat such is the case we have evidence worthy of consideration, but which must not be unhesitatingly rec-ived, since it is chiefly that of deserters. Accepting it, fur argument's sake, as trustworthy and positive, the enemy's only al ternative is to attack or to give in. To get them to attack is just what is most to be thsired. Setting aside the idea of a siege, which, in fact, is no siege, we have two powerful armies, each occupying a line of extremely strong positions,' not to be taken without severe Hay a el some risk of defeat. Evidently the di euiventege is with the army which is first compelled to assume time offen sive. The result of the action on the Tcherneya is suffi cient proof of this. Since it occured the defences of the point then assailed have been greatly improved by the French, who laugh at the idea of a similar attempt being made with even a shadow of success. An attempt on Balaklava or a general attack on our lines would be a strung indication that the statements of the straitened condition of the Russians are well founded, and that they are driven to a desperate effort. Such as attack, if our generals prove as able as we know our soldiers to be brave, ought to recoil with terrible force upon the heads of the assailants, occasioning them heavy losses of men and giving us solid proofs of success in the shape of newly-acquired positions. THE ENEMY'S " IMPROVEMENTS." Yesterday I went down into our advanced trenches, and from the fifth parall e l, t h e most forward of them, a ,, ginoiopdrovvieemwecnotsu.l,d, blvou e ihtandot the aid latent me o f a o g f l glass, l en e could 's s ee crowds of people p ass i ng and repaeeing from the n orth and south sides of th e harbour, whilst workmen were busily engaged about the middle of the bridge in completing it. Some fifty or sixty yards off the corner of the dockyard lay the huge Twelve Apos tles ; and, about midway between her and the broken line of the mast beads of the sunken ships, runs the bridge—apparently some 20 feet in breadth, and pro tected on either side by a low handrail. Sail boats and barges, laden with various kinds of stores, were plying between the two sides of the harbour ; and altogether, as looked at through the rifle loophole from which I viewed it, the whole scene appeared as undisturbed and industriously busy as if not a French or English soldier had foothold within the realms of the Czar. From within revolver shot of the Redan a very prolonged or complete survey was, of course, not convenient ; but even with such glimpses of the place as could be hail from the parapet. I saw enough to convince me that, whatever may he the state of the besieged's commissariat, they are as active as they could he if fed upon the beet. In the open, some 50 yards from the parepet which shel tered me, poor Yea received his death wound on the disastrous 18th of June;and all reund were strewn the sacrificed hundreds who fell on the same memorable morning. Fifteen or twenty perches beyond runs the low broken hedge of stakes forming the abattis, stretch. ing down the elope towards the similar defensive barrier in front of the adjacent Malekhoff As seen at a dis tance of about a hundred and fifty yards, this obstruc tive Ike appears, at first sight, as if it could offer little hindrance to an attacking force ; hut a closer scrutiny of it shows it to be just low, intricate, and strong enough to check assailants, whilst au extra discharge or two of grape could be poured into them from the black muzzles • bristling in terrible array ecas 70 or 8Q yards beynd. PLAGUE IN SEBASTOPOL. Besides the reports current of approaching famine and actual drought in the Russian camp, there are others of the plague being in Sebastopol and of a mutiny having broken out, in consequence of which 100 men have been shot. I mention these as mere flying rumours, which I have been unabls to trace to any trustworthy source. NEW BATTERIES. Our works on the left continue to advance. Several new batteries—one of 15 mortars—have been constructed in front of what were recently our most advanced posi. tions on that part of the line. The Greenhill Battery, lately so prominent, now appears retiring into the rear. There was a heavy fire before daybreak this morning. The Russians showed themselves outside the Redan, but it was ton hot to hold, and they promptly retired. To. day the batteries have been very quiet. FORAGING MOTIIIENTS. Since the late attack tke French detachment and waggon train, which had been collecting the hay in the valley of Baidar, Wave been continually on the move, ao. cording to the reports which reached us of the enemy's movements. Whenever the news came of an attack for the next day they fell back towards the valley of Va• runtka, aid occupied the wooded ridge which runs along from Buyuk Miskomia down to Kaiton, and which sepa rates this latter valley from that of Baidar. When again the rumour proved false they deAcended, and pushed for ward reconnaissances to the heights towards Kolon loua and Markoul. These precautions became necessary on account of the large nurob,r of waggons and arabas which, having un'y the Woronzoff road tt. retire by, would run the risk f being captured should the Russians attack in fume. Be sides the French have lately brought over great part of their cattle to these valleys, where the grass is :4)11 plentiful, while the neighbourhood of Sebastopol is quite scorched. Notwithitandi, g their late frequent hegiras the catt e have very much improved by this change, and have lost that skeleton look which they s h4red forjuorly with their comradei cubed to the RIFLEMAN. I shall expect to see the apricot jacket and purple cap of Alfred Day, on Oalston, close up at his quarters. The third place I assign to Rotherham. • Should Gra:- culus Esuriens go well to the post, I shall be induced to make a venture with him as a cockboat. Perhaps after all more unlikely things might be dreamt of in a man's philosophy than Juhn Scott's furnishing the St. Leger winner. THE GREAT YORKSHIRE HANDICAP seems likely to go to Whitewall with the as ,, istance of either Midsummer or Vandal—my " fancy" is for the mare. Gamekeeper and Radcliffe Hero stand next in my estimation. For the Champagne Stakes I shall Waco my trust in Artillery. The Glasgow Stakes I assign to Porto-Rico. For the Stand Plate Hosporlar, Bourgeoise, and Eulogist seem the most noteworthy names. The most formidable lot for the Portland Plate comprises Wild Huntsman, Chalice, Welham, and La Victime. For the Corpora tion Plate I shall stand on the Queen blab filly, Assayer, and The Cropper. The most favourably-weighted animals for the Cleve land Handicap appear to be Dervish, Maid of Team Valley, The Cropper, and Mary. Could I calculate upon a start I should expect to see Coroner, Heir of Lynne, and Stork occupy the foremost places for the Eglinton Stakes. The running for the other events will be regulated by the result of Tuesday's and Wednesday's races. The nominations for the Cup will be made this evening. Wild Dayrell is reported a " certain starter" for it. A FRESH MAN. Septomber DI. THE STREETS OF PARIS. —The grand effect of the street archictecture of Paris, arising from the im mense height of the houses, is very striking to a Lon doner, who rarely sees three storeys exceeded. The new buildings in the extension of the Rue de Rivoli are quite palatial, and, unlike our new streets, are constructed of stone, and not brickbats' cemented over. The balconies (of which there are two, one al,ove the entre-sol, and a second formed by a bold projecting cornice to the fourth storey) are gilt, which mode is probably as durable as paint in the pure air of Paris, and adds much to the gaiety of the general effect of the new street. Nothing can be more admirable than the arrangements for clean ine and watching the streets.—The Builder. PROPEIM-TAfIN SOOTLAND,—The Chancellor of the Ex chequer has addressed a letter to Mr. William Lockhart, M.P., the head of a numerous deputation of Scotch mem bers who had an interview with him on the 21st of May last on the subject of dealing with the local charges upon land in assessing it to the income Lax, in which he says, in writing from Downing-street on the 16th ult., that he admits the equity and reason ableness of the principle that the landowners of Scot land, in making the income-tax assessment, should be practically placed in as favourable a position as the land. owners of England and Ireland with respect to local charges upon the land ; and if any bill should be introduced into Parliament by the Government for making further charges on the income•tax while be holds the office of Chancellor of the Exchequer, he shall be willing to consider the propriety of including in it a clause for giving effect to that principle, provided that the means for excepting from the assessment the rates which are chargeable upon the landlord and paid by him, and not by the tenant, can be arranged in a satisfactory manner. Mr. Lockhart, ackDowlFdv the rece.pt of this communication, states that alt afford the members of the deputation g reat gr ti fi ca Exchequer n. tion to know that the Chancellor of the his candidly admits the claim they urged upon n s that con sideration the law to be an equitable one , and adds against the pro law of Scotland in this case ope rates prietors of land and rtill more against the proprietors of houses, and that it is w ell worth the Chancellor's notice that in another instance, when its operatton had a contrary effect, hi s predecessor did not hesitat e t o interfere. He states that, by the law of Scotland, heritable bonds (mortgages on land, houses, &e.) I are deemed to be heritable property, and were in conse quence exempted from the legacy duty ; but when Mr. Gladstone's notice was drawn to this circumstance he introduced provisions which placed them, in respect to that tax, in the same position with bonds of a similar description in England. On the part of *the deputation he expresses a hope that that will be an additional in duoenaent to the Chancellor to do • • justice to the propries tors of Ecotland whoa raliana t •en awl eaeorableu. • ' . 7 ,.'` , ----- _,-•----' , , .... . 1 'get, M litr. t -2.

York by telegraph to th' 4 Both and $847,408 in specie. The largest portion of the allied squadrons had returned to San Francisco, from Petropaulovski, including the Monarch, President, Eurydice, Obli gado' La Forte, and Alceste. The officers of the French and English vessels were to receive a number of complimentary balls from the citizens of San Francisco during their stay in the harbour, and in return they were to give like entertainments on board their vessels. A number of seamen were landed from the French frigate La Forte. Most of them were affected with symptoms of scurvy. According to the Russian Consul at San Francisco Sitka had not been abandoned by the Russians, owing to a convention between the Hudson's Bay Company and the Russian American Company, which was concluded at St. Petersburg and Lon don, by the provisions of which this portion of the Russian possessions is exempted from hostilities. No hostile proceedings against the place were in tended. On arriving off the harbour the allied ships did not enter, but the Erglish and French Admirals with their suites embarked on board the English steamer Brisk and entered the port. They wer e waited up on by a b oa t f rom shore containing the Governor's secret ar y, w h o communicated the infor mation that, in accordance with the spirit of the treaty between England and their Government, no preparations for defencehad been deemed necessary, and that none had been made. If the French Admiral think proper to assail the town no resist ance would be offered, and they could only ask that they should be taken on board the men-ofwar as prisoners, for if their defences against the hos tile Indians were destroyed, and the town burned the whole population, men, women, and children, would be at the mercy of the savages, who sur rounded the place in such numbers that their de struction would be inevitable. Her Britannic Majesty's frigate Pie Captain Nicholson, had sailed for th e river Amoor, the Russian possessions in Asia, and thence for China. The British frigate Dido and - the steamer Brisk were to touch at Vancouver's Island, thence to San Francisco. Accounts from Vera Cruz to the 22d ult. report that Santa Anna left the city of Mexico on the Bth ult., signed his abdication at Perote, and pro. ceeded to Vera Cruz, where he embarked on the 17th ult. for Havaunah. He was escorted in his flight by 2,500 troops, but shortly after leaving the capital one third of them revolted, lolled several of the officers ' and then joined the revolutio n i s t s; on arriving at Vera Cruz another revolt broke out, hut a single regiment continued faithful to their fallen chief, and the mutineers were vanquished and fled in confusion. With reference to the reconstruction of the Go v•-rnment it appears, however, that the plan of Alvarez has been adopted, and that General Carro is Provisional President, and General La Vege Commander-in-Chief of the army, instead of Santa Anna, who left the capital, on the pretence of quell ing the insurrection in Vera Cruz. The office of the Universal and 40 other buildings had b een de molished by th e p opu l ace during the excitement consequent upon Santa Anna's departure. The military interfered, killing 40 persons and wound ing a large number. The statue of Santa Anna had been torn down and trampled on by the people. Delegates met in the city of Mexico on the 10th, who elected General Carro president for six months, and also ordained the liberty of the press. Advices from Cuba to the 23d state that her Ma jesty's ship Daring was at Vera Cruz, for the pur pose of embarking Santa Anna on his arrival, and that a Spanish steamer had been likewise placed at Li-; service. Sicknesg was on the increase, but it was princi pally confined to the soldiers. . - Sugar buyers were active, admitting advanced rates. Molasses was scarce and at high prices. Freights for sugar Is. per box ; $1 per hhd. mo lasses. Exchange on London, firm. The British brig-of-war Arab arrived off the har bour on the 16th, and reported having experienced very heavy weather at sea. Some anxiety was ex perienced for the safety of Bitish mail steamer Wyc, which was nine days overdue from Vera Cruz. Mr. James C. Thompson, Albany, had received an offer to assume the chief engineership of the Russian navy, and was at Washington making the necessary arrangements with the Russian Minister. A terrible accident occurred on the 27th between New York and Philadelphia (on the New York and Philadelphia Railroad) ; 23 persons were killed and 70 wounded. Among the killed was Baron de St. Andre, French Consul at Philadelphia. The Daniel Webster had arrived at New York from Fuenta Arenas, with $712,000 in specie. Tho cholera had abated at Nicaragua, but not until it had swept away nearly all the Government forces. The remainder of the troops had been centred at Grenada. The epidemic had also visited Leon, and the re volutionary army suffered much from its attacks. The Costa Ricans kept up a strict quarantine both by land and water. The best interests of Ni crragua are reported as in a very perilous position. The Accessory Transit Company had a party of armed men at Castillo, in order to watch Colonel Kinney's movements. It was reported that Gene rals Garidola and Lopez with 200 men from Guate mala had attacked Honduras and routed General Cabanas. It was also said that Colonel Kinney had made an attack on Rivas. The revolutionists from Leon had attacked Managua, but were re pulsed. _ Greytown (rebuilt) was looking well, and all the sufferers by the late bombarment, from the Briti-h Vice-Consul downwards, were preparing to sub m it their claim for damages to Congress. Colonel Walker had marched into Costa Rica, and after some negotiations gave up his arms to the authorities, who guaranteed him protection from the Nicaragnama ; however, in a short time after, the latter seized 20 of his men, when the Costa Ricans raised 1,300 soldiers, and sent a demand for their delivery. _ _ _ Advices from the great Salt Lake City report that the grasshoppers had destroyed the third crop of grain, and starvation or an abandonment of the settlement was the alternatives presented to the Mormons. The State of Panama had imposed a duty of 50c. per ton on sailing vessels, and 25c. on steamers, also a duty of 1$ on each passenger. At Hayti money, coffee, and logwood were scarce. At Norfolk on the 27th there were 35 deaths from fever during the 48 hours previously to noon of that day. At New Orleans the deaths in the city during the week previously to the 27th were 471, includ ing 357 deaths from yellow fever, being a decided decline. The _New York Evening Eepress of the 28th "The yellow fever continues to desolate, we had al most said decimate, the stricken cities of Norfolk and Portqmouth. Awful as were the incidents attending the New Orleans epidemic the summer loefore last, the melancholy particulars we publish elsewhere—the latest to hand—throw these sombre reminiscences into the shade, and the worst of all is there is no abatement—no prospect of abatement as yet. This is terrible. Be it the part of those are afar off, and in safety, to continue their contributions in aid of the sick and the suffering poor." Up to the 23d the yellow fever was not prevalent in Mobile. Confidence in every department of the United States' commerce and finance was steadily gaining ground. Money continued abundant, but stocks were heavy. Exchange was firm, at 109.1 to 1101 on London, and at 5 12A to 511,E on France. Cot ton was firm. Lower prices were taken for flou r . For provisions there was an active demand at en hanced rates. The iron market was firm ; Scotch pig sold at 35 dollars, six months. Freights re mained inactive. , m l T e s e la s z . ld u b a e yt p e a r c a k n e d d mre.—lt is not absolutely BOOKS FOR THE -RI hneces sarynswerto a f n o for n t g e u C i r r y i in b , xes. that bo z o il k a s Howell state that they will for war d small parcels of b oo ks, which may be packed up in stout paper and ad dressed to the army.

Grey to set out the northern portion of the metropolis into wards, held his Court at the Court-house, Mary l e one- ane b l , for the pur pose of dividing the parish of St. Marylebone. The collectors and oth ers present having offered some sug gestions, the learned gentleman proceeded to set out the parish into eight wards. The division appeared to give general satisfaction. Mr. Cooper also held his court for the parish of St. Mary, Newington. After much discussion it was agreed to divide the wards as f flows :—No. 1, the e cclesiastical district of St. Mary ; No. 2, that portion of the pitrish on the north of a line drawn along the centre of the New Kent-road ; No. 3, bounded on the east by a. line drawn along Walworth and Camberwell-roads, on the south by the parishes of Camberwell and Lambeth, on the west by the parish of Lambeth, and on the north by the eccle- Fiistical district of St. Mary, No. 4, bounded on the east by the parish of St. Geor ge th e M artyr, Southwark, on the south by the parish of Camberwell, on the west by a line drawn through Camberwell and Walworth-roads to the boundary of St. Mary, and thence by the boundary of that district, and on the north by the district of St. te ar y, and partly by a iij• drawn d on th e metre of the lisle Stzt•road.
