ItOYAL LYCEUM THEATRE: = THIS EVENING, and every evening during the 'week, the GRAND ELEUSINIAN SPECTACLE of MAGIC wizard MYSTERY, by Professor ANDERSON, th e Great of ieard of the North, in 12 acts, with ever-changing variety of incidents, continuous surprises, novel and extraordinary ete ee t s. Magic and Mystery is an entirely new entertainment, pos sessing distinctive characteristics and peculiar phases of aniusement. It is not a monologue, for the audience them ns perform their parts with the principal actor, some of e bli eln on the stage and others in front ; it is not an exhibition, 'or though everything becomes metamorphosed before the e Yes of the visitors no one can be positive that he sees any Pane' °IV t hing; but it is a comedy really performed by the'corn ; a melodrama replete with startly positions and unex thPeeted denouements ; a magnificent spectacle, with 2,000 of e P.ublic every night to appear as auxiliaries ; and an ex the hound s o f probabilityTwaganza, in which all . that seems to be i s en ti re l y b eyon d " Professor Anderson returns his thanks to thronged and fashionable audiences which have nightly filled the Lyceum Notre to overflow, and by, means of whose generous aid he I 'm been enabled to announce Magic and Mystery for eon tinexus repetition. H e b e li eves th at no professor of - leie art as at any time or any place been honoured with au .r.areount of success so extensive, so decided, and so unasual. ihj-le,would attribute that success to three causes ; first, that the Present entertainment he bas placed before his visitors vue results of a life sedulously devoted to the attainment of Perfected skill in one peculiar art, and to perfect which he # ''zt Jelled the globe in every clime ; secondly, that he has Z n eed no trouble nor expense to put this entertainment on ''oe stage in the most elaborate manner, by the employment of the first mechanicians and artists of the day; and thirdly, thhat, while endeavouring to provide amusement for th ose it ue Is h onour him with their pres e n ce, h e h as not forgotten that possible to afford information also, and that the whoppor- •' unity should not be neglected of exposing cmejuring here has it has been used for nefarious purposes, or whenever by eresorting to the conjuror's arts, in an illegitimate manner, cru de lons s igning have succeed e d i n making dupes of the f s The 937 l e t ters on the subject of spirit-rapping, which Pro teii o-r A nderson has recei ve d, f rom th e t i me of opening the tere st theatre tip to the pre sen t d a t e, b ear witness to the great in taken i nn on the subject o f thi s s i ngu l ar d elusion ; whilst i e ,s,r of them b ear me l ancholy evidence to the dangers which i"lnd belief in the supe rs titi ons nonsense of the " Spiri -adstes."a Judging simply by the correspondence which has 7sesulted, Professor Anderson's exposé of spirit-rapping and illustration of the so-called table phenomena, have pro ,.._nesd a sensation unequalled by any previous attempt to ex mischievous and impudent juggle. It is impossible '431- Professor Anderson to reply at length to a tithe of the communications which reach hi m on th e su bje ct. He regrets e a c t , many of these should come from ladies and gentlemen ;:neZs! from their position in society and their well-known in etttal attainments, he would least have expected to have Bally'es converts to a belief so -preposterous in itself, and so "4 susceptible of being controverted and disproved. Every eve nkg, from the Lyceum stage, Mr. Anderson's opinions on ?irit-rapping are expressed, and every evening, within the Yee nre, how tables can be made to rap is exhibited and elucidated. It is respectfully requested that this Public exposition will be accepted generally as Professor Anderson's only mode of replying at full length to his Ilstultitudinous correspondents. He regrets that the le a n:ft of the great and learned of the land should e been made to figure in the documents emanating eloni the s pirit - rappers, as for i ns t ance the following, ex- Ltraeted from the Morning Ad vert i ser of Thursday, Septem ber - 20, and taken by that journal from the New York Spiri ",a2 T e l egraph. It purp or t s t o emanate from an American 8 1)11 . 4-rapper, Mr. D. D . Hume : " Sir David B rews t er frankly confesses th a t h e i s sorely puzzled' at what h e h as eVitnessed, and Lord Brougham acknowledges himself to be th e eho d r whole force of their keen discernment to bear upon th so lution of the ph enomena; but the presence of substantial, e actual hands, and the demonstrative strength of the spirits Who thus clothed themselves for the time, and moved mate rial-objects about the room, proved to be too much of a ques tion for them to master." Mr. D. D. Hume, the author of the above, has recently left England, and the following account of Who, and what he is, occurs in the Family Herald, No. 648: in This young man, who is a Scotchman by birth, and now Italy, is a. r emar k a bl e medium for all the manifestations Without apparatus. Barnum, who is well-known throughout the Anglo-Saxon world as a splendid humbug, offered him 2.000 dollars Pe: ann um if h e wou ld pe i form at his museum in New : r k. Barnum then took it for granted that mediums could tofese °fiought. He was somew h at astonished when his nffer was d. Hume, on telling the fact in London lately, simply td honestly remarked, that the money would have been very ''''''eptable to him, for he was poor, young (under 20), an or and in very bad health : but he would have been afraid 3 3 ,t s le ,! i ng his power as a medium, and he would sooner lose life, The refusal, however, made Barnum thoughtful. tee inquired into the subject ; and now Barnum, one of the one et humbugs in the world, and withal a conjuror, is tai of the firmest believers in spiritualism" It is cer editonlY su rPrising to find such a paragraph as this in the rialarticle of an established journal, the editor of whom imight be supposed to be sane. Even if Barnum does believe e, 81)1ra-rapping—does spirit-rapping gain or lose by 'eene•aceession to its adherents and, with Barn or endorsee .10 wen t to it, is this bill, drawn on public credulity, more likely be negotiated ? Professor Anderson wenld believe not : E ngland When he finds that educated clergymen of the Church of 4,ngland have the temerity to subscribe their names to so gross Revndle, when he finds that the incumbent of Wortley (the N. J. Godfrey) positively asserts his belief in it, and e;eibes a book on the subject, he considers it t be time for i t m to state th a t which he know s of the mech an i sm b y w hi ch s effected, and the miselelef to which it tends.

To ascertain who of the Candidates have devoted especial atten tion to any of these sciences, and are hence qual fled to undertake duties requiring a knowledge of them, as well as the general duties of their profession.' Proficiency in these sciences will, in classifying the Candidates by merit, be entitled to great consideration. 2. To encourage all Candi sates to acquire an elementary know ledge of the structure and affinities of the principal natural families of A. dmais and of Plants, with the general plan upon which these are constructed, and the functions and relations of their most impor tant organs. 3. To promote the study of Natural History as a most important adjunct or preliminary to a liberal medical education; that of Com parative Anatomy, Zoology, or Botany, if properly cultivated, by means of specimens, for even a short period, being eminently calcu lated to develope habits of close observation, and to strengthen those powers of reasoning upon observed facts. which must be habitually exercised by medical men everywhere, but which must be exercised with the greatest energy and promptitude by those who pract.se in a tropical climate, and who are often thrown wholly upon their own resourr.s. The general examination in these scienres will be elementary, and will embrace a very limited range of techweal terms. At he written examination a considerable ',umber of ques'ions will be put, with the view of allowing each Candidate to select such sutiects as he has attended to, and, thereby; of enabling the Examiners to ascertain the particular departments of science in which the verbal examina• tion should be conducted. With those Candidates who have attained prAtiency in any branch of these acience,=, the verbal examination will be pursued in the branth selected,so as to asoertain the full extent of their knowledge.

THE PRUSSIAN ALLIANCE. t2i tido EDITOR OF THE TIMES: Alt ) —t observe with great satisfaction from the letter of your Berlin correspondent that tor the present he con siders Prussia—undet Prussia's genial king-- , -unworths of an English alliance, and that he tests the tiltimate advantage to be detiVed from Snell tin ailiftnee on the possible kindly feeling toward England of a young Prince bet:omen whom and the throne two lives intervene. Be ' tore these two lives drop how much may happen The kindly feelings which no# we ate told, fill the mind of Prince Frederick William ) may change to the very re verse ; tot, though I am not quite so old as the late Dr. Routh, I can very well remember the time when the present King of Prussia, then Crown Prince, was de ' scribed by Mg tutors as English to the back-bone (bis sum Rackgrat Englisclt. gesiant). Compare the saute man under the different phases of his etistecde as f i rinde and King, and you will see thitt in Prussia, as in England, the rule or policy prevails that it is convenient for a Grown Prince to be in opposition: When in one and the same family both antagonist poles are Combined it may be supposed it may be supposed by those about the Throne that there is less danger of a political explosion. The word "explosion" brings me to the point which I have in view. That issue *lll be an explosion in Prussia some or , the days,. if the present repressive system, pursued by the !frau ieitaitg party and the Jankersch,aft, who lead the amiable king by the nose, be persevered iii , who dati doubt t You might as well Cut off all the water from the boiler of your engine, beating your furnace at the same time seven times more than its wont, and then expect it not to blew Up Try the experiment with a teakettle, and dee it some tine does not get scalded, Well, it there be an explosion, I do not know where the,hense of Etohentolletn Will be blown to. Perhaps to St. Petersbitig ; lit any rate; the alliance of one or that tamily *ith an English Princess will then not be worth seeking. But, supposing there is no explosion ; suppose that the leading-strings of the country are loosed, the fetters on its intellect and speech relaxed, that its police learns wisdom, and its King the art of governing,—in that case this alliance might be I worth having, but it oan only b e worth having when an English Princess is wedded t o a Lib eral and Constitu tionalin fa c t, h ave a ma'erial gua rantee.something to Ger many at e \ eCOMe a real more than words.

" A STUDENT OF HISTORY. SPIRIT OF . THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. (Proof!, 'the Times of this day.) While the telegraph which is to annonnee the, 'sombardment of Odessa hangs fire, And Prince - lrortschakoff contents himself with ; informing the , 3ritish public that the allie s h ave a d vance d a s t ep 'a the way to. Parekop, we are forced. to turn 0 matters of minor importance, and to make some )bservations pn what has been taking place in the wecious little kingdom of Greece; and 'on the bei taviour of Otho the Witless, whom England, i?rauce, and Russia set up to rule over the land which was to reflect all the glories of the ancient l e nae. We must confess that the public are iardly likely fo interest themselves greatly in a ;hange of Ministers in Greece. The old compari ion of a tempest in a teacup will occur to every one ,who for the last few woeks has glanced over the occasional accounts of embroilments between the King, the Queen, General Kalergi, and IV!. Mavro :ordato. We must, however, take events as they occur. We cannot have a capture of Sebastopol every day, and therefore we must occasionally be Jontent with a miserable dish of Greek politics. . There is no need to enter at length into the petty intrigues which have ended with the dismissal of die Minister of War. Let it suffice to say that "ersonal enmities were the chief motives of what las happened, and that General Kalergi has no reason to proclaim himself a martyr to liberty and the cause of the Western Powers. In times past !very politician iti this little State enrolled him self in the ranks..of some foreign -party. There was .he French party, the English, Russian, and Bava rian parties. The last seems pretty well extinct. The Germans,- who followed in the train of the new Hellenic Majesty, found but scanty inducemen is co remain on so poor a pasturage ; most of the m returned speedily to Fatherland-, and they have ha d but few successors. Ten years ago there was a great talk of the English party and the necessity of 'reserving our influence at Athens; but Admira l Parker's bloklade destroyed this political section, cud there is no reason-to believe that we have suf 'ered by its extinctiou. M. Mavrocordato is now .ts solitary representative. There remain the Rus .ian and French parties. The former includes the King, the priests, and the great body of the peo ale ; the Queen and her Lathes of Honour are also nthusiastic in their support. The French have had the allegiance of the pure and patriotic Oppo ition,"the men who denounced corruption because hey did not profit by it, and talked of reform un it they should rise to prolong the present system. They do not seem to - have been much valued by he present ruler of France, whose indifferen ce t o heir virtues has sadly tried their attachment. 3-eneral Kalergi is certainly one of the most honest , f the number, but he is, after all, only a hotheaded hml ambitious Greek, as fond of intrigue and per :onal display as the rest ()this race. Having served , vith credit during the revolution, and being well tcquainted with men and politics in Western Eu ,,pe, be was raised to power by the influence of he allies after the occupation of Athens last year. Whether he has fulfilled their anticipations depends •ipon what they expected. His chief service has wen the suppression of brigandage on the frontier; n other respects his career has been remarkable mly for a series of quarrels with the King and Queen. The immediate cause of his downfall is said to be his familiarity with a lady at Atheus. The General wished her to be received at Court ; - he Queen would consent only on condition that her tusband accompanied her. Asa separation had taken dace, this amounted to arefusal. Kalergi then wrote L letter toMavrocordato, expressing his surprise that Queen Atnalia should decline to receive a lady for such a reason, and stating that he himself had been ,bliged to defend the Queen's honour on one occasion. A duplicate of this letter he seems to have sent to a French paper. The natural conse quence was his dismissal, which need be a matter of regret to no one. Alf that the Western Powers desire is, that both King and people should keep themselves quiet and forl:ea,r from molesting their neighbours. This is not a course which they may choose or neglect at pleasure ; they have no alternative, for any dis turbance on the frontier will call down something flore than the disapprobation of the allies. As re gards domestic politics and Court scandal Athens nay be left to itself. The Hellenes have escaped with strange impunity from the consequences of last year's delinquency. Headed:by the King and Queen, the nation formed a crusade against the authority of ,the Sultan in his own provinces. At its inglorious close_ it was .thought that some pe nalty would be exacted whicS would deter them from another attempt. The Greeks, however, ob stinately refused an indemnity, declared that the country was too poor to' pay it, and succeeded in inducing tee Western Governments to dissuade the Porte from its claim. You cannot get blood from a stone. However, as the relations of the two couutries were to be placed on a new basis, a treaty was negotiated. Ottoman and Hellene troops were to co-operate for the extirpation of -he brigands on the frontier. Otho's Minister for Foreign affairs was to express his regret for past events, and new commercial regulations were inade, giving mutual advantages to the two coun tries. As the commerce of both is in the hands of Greeks, it is evident that the same race has been benefited by the concessions of the Sultan and of Otho. The Greeks have therefore turned their in vasion to profitable account ; it is their habit, but they must not think that they will be permitted to renew their outrage. Whoever may he called to the R o yal counsels must acquiesce in the tranquilli ty which the ;'flies impose. So long . as King Otho keeps he eace we haven° ssish to interfere in the arrange merits of his Palace "' his a 's trouble enou,ech with our own sza mut dehamb• We have had th e -women. e Greeks If it be a glory to ht - "le in may be proud of their celebrifY, Zfo recent tidies has inspired such hoped and gifen ' l " 6 h trouble ; no people t'ists fofinerly so much landed or is now so much abused. The afaifd Of (iresice for years filled as many columns in European journals as the'affairs of the United States. The habitual state Of the acrferiimeht *as a crisis, which the representatives of the leading Powers of Europe watched with due aniiiety. All this is now past. King Otho and his people IA longer interest the world. The Greeks have to regain a place in the good will of Eu ro p e , an d even ir contintied tional cetistence must depend on the policy of the Court. Our own diredt felatiosts with this small kingdom will be few, but its intercourse with Tur key must daily increase. Christians of all sects, but especially the Greeks t are gaining large elln " by the present wa r . While the Musstilman popular tion has been carried off by the conscriptions and is in certain parts hastening to extinction, the Chris tians are increasing in numbers, and many are amassing fortunes which would be large even in England. The empire is ruined while the country is enriched ; the power of the Sultan and his raoe is gradually Wasting as the subject people advance in wealth and power. Ho* to conduct the State safely through these changes is a problem which the Western Powers must solve. In this they 'will probably have little assistance from the Hellene Court and people, or from their co-religionists of Roumelia and Asia Minor. All these entertain views of supremacy which must divide them from all sympathy with leranee and England. The allies, howeter, will not relax from the strictness with which they enforce their resolves, and, while they view with indifference the fall of a Minister, they will not allow any tampering with the policy which it is their right to impose. Prot Ike Mdireing Pod of this tedo The Pureigii Nliniilter of. p og hyid. has lld Mote difficult task than that of dealing With those. small; States who take courage from their inisidniffednd6 to be utterly bad an d mischievous. They are Stfou enough to be thoroughly . troublesome —they are tuo weak to be punished without raising a terrible cry of martyrdom. Their rulers are the prey of some small clique, who lead them amiss with the most desperate pertinacity. Clever, reckless, and without a tinge of shame, these intriguers set at naught all ties of honour, gratitude, and patriot ism, and take their masters and patrons into situa tions whence they cannot escape without some damage and a great deal of dishonour. Great Britain has the happiness to be interested in more than one of the , ie, and certainly the meanest, Most foolish, and the most wicked among them, is the Kin g d om of Greece, or , we s h ou ld rather say, th e C our t o f country Athens. borne For 2woityhea patience—on the wh o l e reallyars have the Ministe rs o f t hi s wonderful—the mischief and the . violence into which King Otho has been forced by bad influences. At times they have been compelled to interfere, and to show him strongly that England was deter mined to be treated with justice and respect. It was not likely that the war with Russia should fail to give the Greek Party, or rather the Camarilla that rules Greece in its own manner, an oppor tunity of appearing in its peculiar colours. The vast scale upon which the war has been rapidly car,- ried on has taken the attention of the world from tne misdoings of Greece; but it must not be forgotten that that country was early in the eld agamt Turkey; that, while preforming neutrality and enjoying its privileges, her Court connived at, and, we believe, incited the flocking of men and officers to the Frontier Raids. It must be re-. membered, too, that the only m e ans by w hi c h England and France could insure the respect' which they had a right.to demand, was by station ing -an armed force at Athens and assuming the slight material guarantee of a decided military oc cupation. Notwithstanding this security, we hear now of a new difficulty at Athens—of a new act of rashness and folly on the part of the Camarilla—of a new blindness on the part of the King. The Minister of War, 'General Kalergi, was one of the most truly patriotic of the Mavrocordato Ministry. He was the author of the Revolution which, twelve years ago, gave Greece a Constitution which she has not had the spirit, the vigour, or the cultiva tion to use with reality and effect. He did not number among his advantazes that of being liked by the King and Queen. He had the full confi dence of the Western Powers. He had not the good fortune of enjoying that of his own Court. On the strength of a charge of writing offensive remarks on the proceedings of his Monarchs, the dismissal of General Kalergi was demanded of Mavrocordato, who replied that, if the General went, the whole Ministry went with him. The matter was referred to the Ministers of the English and French Courts, as to two of the protecting Powers of Greece. They expressed the confidence that they felt in the Mavrocordato ministry, and endeavoured in vain to bring the King to reason. He remained obstinate ; Mavrocordato.resigried, and there is now, we believe, a prolonged Minis terial crisis in Greece. The day after this resig nation, Mr. Wyse, as the elder of the two repre sentatives, waited on the King—explained to 14,x( that nothing could be farther from the wishes 'of both the Great Powers than any interference be tween him and his Ministers ; that he was at liberty to dismiss and to choose whom he would as advisers, but that the Western Powers having learned, by a long experience, how mere a phrase Constitution and Representative Government had become in Greece, would henceforth hold the King, who really possessed the sole guidance of affairs, personally responsible for whatever might happen. This warning is said somewhat to have perturbed his Majesty, who has probably sense enough to know that England and France are very much in the habit of meaning what they say, and of carry ing out their expressed intentions. No substan tive Ministry is'yet reported. The Western Powers have taken active nicasures for the observation of the country, and are fully on their guard against mischief. The Camarilla and the governing clique are intensely delighted at having succeeded in an intrigue, at havi ng d e f ea t e d, as they imagine, the Western Powers, at having got rid of a patriotic Minister, and an enemy to Russia, at having, Heaven knows whom, in their hands, Heaven knows what plan in their heads, to improve the in terests of Russia and to destroy the interest§ of that unhappy Greece which lies at their mercy. Such is our present situation with this miserable Court of Athens, which has never done its duty in the government of Greece. At the beginning of the war with Russia we detected her in open vio lation of her neutrality. That'offence we stopped, and took precautions against its recurrence. We have now the strongest symptoms of a repetition of the fault. Small though Greece is, , she has the power, no less than the will, to do mischief in the cause of Russia against the two Powers to whom she stands so largely indebted ; and we hope that those Powers will be prevented by no false deli cacy from measuring out to King Otho and his Court, on the first sign of a relapse, on the first re appearance of treachery, the strong treatment which he most richly demands and deserves. THE DEFENCE OF SEBASTOPOL. The following summary of Prince Gortschakoff's Ireport of the defence of Sebastopol from the 17th of August to the 9th of September is taken from the Journal de St. Petersbourg : " On the 17th of August the enemy opened against the faubourg of Karabelnaia a double fire of artillery, horizontal and vertical, which was continued through 20 days. Our loss during this period amounted on the first day to 1,500 men, on those following to 1,000 ; and from the 22d of August to the sth of September to 500 or 600 men every 24 hours. This cannonade, kept up from the distant batteries, as well as from those at' a very short distance from the line of defence, produced the moat disastroua effect on our works ; the ramparts and batteries, repaired every night under a heavy fire, crumbled down at last after a few shots ; the parapets fell in large masses into the ditches, and works which had cost incredible sacrifices and toil were again de stroyed. To the left of the Karabelnaia, which was more particularly injured by the enemy, the Bastion No. 2 was reduced every evening to a heap of ruins, and none of its guns could be fired freely ; we were com pelled to transfer to the second line of defenceowhich was still entire, the battery of 12 guns esta b l i shed on the left slope of the Malakhoff Hill ; and even this se cond line suffered no less than the left face of the Kor nileff Bastion, against which the enemy directed the heaviest fire. " The proximity of the approaches of the enemy, which almost touched the outward ditches of our works ; the irreparable damage done to the line of defences, and, above all, the loss sustained by the garrison from the fire of the enemy, which was rendered still heavier by the necessity of employing a constantly increasing num ber of men as labourers ;—all these circumstances united convinced the Commander-in-Chief of the indispensable necessity of putting an end to a now useless effusion of blood, by abandoning to the enemy.the city of Sebasto pol, reduced to heaps of stones and ashes. But this evacuation, in face of a hostile force of a hundred thou sand men, whose approaches 'already touched our line of fcrtification, presented the greatest difficulties, and imposed the necessity of. selecting for the operation a particularly favourable opportunity." The report here repeats more in detail the effect of the feu infernal of the allies on the Russian ; the falling ramparts filled up the ditches, irt4ll `"- impossible to do more than secure . the and it nab - -q by covering them with earth. vwder maga no_ ' Bl l of September the report Frotri the sth to th© statesscribing e ri bin " . men. After de officers, 47 suballerns, and 3,914 , iving notice gh :rison was 4 superior in the that the troops of the allies were assemblingrt trenches in front of the Malakhoff, Prlnce schakoif adds— the made on rep ) . the 4t t 12 arrangements i of "On the Bth of September, at 11.30 a.m , the enemy gushed precipitately from their saps against the angles of the Kornileff Bastion and Bastion No. 2. "The ditches, filled up with the earth of the crumbled parapets, did not present any great obstacle to the as sailants. They rushed into the Bastion No. 2, drove from it the battalions of the Regiment Clonet, and, after having spiked some of the guns, had gained the Omaha itoff Ravine, and the second line of defence ; but there Major Yaroschevitch, with a battalion of the Regiment Belozersk, repulsed them with the bayonet, and drove them beyond the parapet." The report states that the French were also repulsed from the 12-gun battery into which they penetrated by the chevaux de frise, and then pro ceeds to the French grand 'attack of the Malakhoff Tower - - - - - - - - - " fho gle.of the Kornileff Bastion (the Malakhoff) was attacked tIY en. enormous mass of troops, by five French divisions, aftettnting to about 30,000 men. The advanced column enterer; tha bastion by the left angle and drove back from it the 11.1:qiment Praga. The com- ' minder of this regiment, Col. Amid.. charged the French with several companies with the bayo2et, and checked them; but he was wounded, and the assault,Tlg columns which continued to come up repulsed by a vigorous charge the regiments on the hill at the time, „end , the enemy held possession of the whole of its summit. .e.:138t. of the commanders of regiments and battalione, as well as the officers, had been killed or wounded; our troops kept their ground obstinately by the powdermagazines &dreg the tower and the battery that commanded the Bastiont No. g ; but about 2 p.m. they were compelled to Yield to the superiority in number of the masses of the 4nonel, Whioh ConAntted to advance and occupy the bill ; our tiaeps re i ced behind the gorge of the Malakhoff. The 4.'eritlict on this point, where the adver saries were separated by 54 deep ditch and the rampart of the gorge, was maintained tot it long time W'lth obsti nacy and fury ; the numerous columns of the enemy made several attempts to throw our troops back, but were each time repulsed with the bayonet." In tlid attack made at the same time on the Ger vais Battery the French drove out of it the regi ment of Chasseurs of hie Imperial Highness the Grand Duke Michael. The report then describes the English attack on the Redan : " At noon the English advancing in skirmishing order, sustained by strong reserves, rushed on the angle of Bastion No. 3. The Vladimir Regiment, thrown back at the first moment of the attack, but supported in time by companies of theis, Regiments Karnschatka and Yakoutsk, charged the enemy with the bayonet, and repul , ed those of the English who had already gained the parapet, and were setting fire to the fascicles of the sides of the embrasures. Lieutenant General Pauloff, who expected a second attack of the enemy, reinforced the defence by the Selenghinsk Regiment, which formed the reserve. The enemy did renew the attack at the angle of the bastion, but was repulsed by t his regiment, under the command ' of Colonel Mezentsoff, who fell during the assault. A third attack by the en:enly was re pulsed with the same slimes as the two first. A portion of the as , ailants established themselves ire the fosse, ant directed from thence a sharp fire of musketry ; 43 volun teem of the Vladimir Ittgimeat, tmclq the command of - Ensign Doubrovine, descended into the ditch, and drove the English out of it." The report details the incidents of the conflict on the city side of the Malakhoff ; it appears only that th e Freueh did not advance beyond the works they and several attempts t o d o so had taken at noon; are described as having laeen. foiled. At last, how ever— " The Comms.nder-in-Cbief proceeded himself to the second line of our intrenchwents before the Malalthoff hill, and, finding the height occupied by large masses of French troops, in the rear of which there were strong reserves. be was co,ivinced that the re-occupation of the Kornileff Bastion (the Malakhoff) would again necessi tate immense sacrifices. As he had already decided on abandoning the city, he resolved to take advantage of the fact that the assault bad been repulsed on every other point to execute this most difficult operation while the enemy was still exhausted by fatigue. Accordingly, he ordered Lieut.-Gen. Schepeleff not to attack the Kor nileff Bastion, but, at all hazards, to prevent the enemy from debouching from it in the direction of the city. These orders were punctually _executed, notwithstanding all the efforts of the French to advance in front of the gorge of the bastion." Prince Gortschakoff then mentions the names o the officers who had distinguished themselves dur ing the later operations, and gives the number of killed and wounded during the day of the Bth Sep tember ; it was 4 superior officers, 55 subaltern s , and 2,625 men killed ; wounded, 26 superior offi cers, 206 subalterns, and 5,826 men ; contused, 9 superior, 38 subalterns, and 1,138 men ; 24 officers and 1,739 men were missing. He thinks the loss of the allie.vin killed and wounded must have been enormous. The report then proceeds to the eva cuation : " At 4 p.m. the Commander-in-Chief gave the order to commence the evacuation of the south side of Sebis topol at the fall of night, and for the transportation of the troops to the north side, partly by boats, partly by the bridge constructed in the bay. The operation was conducted in the following manner:— " The volunteers and part. of the artillery were left on the line of defence, and kept up a slack fire from the guns and small arms. The lines of barricades previously constructed in the interior of the city were occupied on the right by the regiments Tobolsk, Volhynia, and Minsk ;on the left by. those of Azoff and 0 Tessa. Co vered by these troops in advance, the different corps formed behind them were marched in succession to the Nichelas-place, and thence crossel the creek by the bridge ; those from the Karabelnaia Faubourg were car ried over in boats and steamers prepared by Vice-Ad miral Novasilsky. When the troops had all quitted the Nicholas-placeand the Paulovskypoint, and the wounded in the hatteties' of Nicholas and Paul bad been t...ans ported to the north side, a signal was given, and the rest of the artillery, the volunteers, and the troops oc cupying the barricades began tomoze towards the points of passage of the bay. As the last troops retired from the different points of the line of defence the heavy pieces of artillery on the works were as far as possible rendered useless, and the powder magazines, as well as the city itself, set on fire. After all the troops had crossed to the north side of the harbour the'bridge was removed. lOn the Bth of, September , after the evacuatio n o f th e city, the Batteri es N o . 7, No. 8. and No. 10 exploded ; the Paul Battery was blown up, as well as the small quantity of powder in the Nicholas Battery. " Thus, after 349 days' obstinate defence of a city surrounded hastily, and in sight of the enemy, with field works, and presentiug between its different parts natural obstacles like the South Creek and the harbour, the garrison evacuated the city without being molested. The enemy, still underlthe impression of the bloody opposi tion he had mec during the day, did not even think of pursuing us. Our passage to the north side of the city cost us only a few men." A note states that the number of magazines blown up was 35. FRENCH POLICE CASES. (From Galignani's Messenger.) A man named Levent, who, from having lost a leg, is obliged to use crutches, was on Monday placed at the bar of the Tribunal of Correctional Police of Leon (Aisne) to answer the charge of mendicity and rupture of ban. The President, after hearing the charge, told him that, owing to his infirmity, he ought to have remained in the Men dicity Depot at Montreuil, in which he had been placed. On this the man flew into a violent rage, and cried, " Don't talk to me o f M on t reu il ; I h ave had enough of it !" He then launched into gross abuse of the Presi dent and the other judges, and declared he would burn down the village of Monceau lee Wast, where he bad been arrested. The President attempted to calm him, but his fury increased every moment, and at length, - breaking one of his crutches in two, he flung part of it at the judges, bat fortunately it did not reach them. He was then seized and prevented from doing further mis chief. The Public Prosecutor demanded that he should be punished for the outrage to the court, and he was sen tenced to five years' imprisonment ; be was also sen tenced to a year's additional imprisonment for mendicity. Two brothers named Nicod, one a soldier in the 10th Regiment of Cuirassiers, the other a corporal in th e 16th Battalion of Masseurs (rifles), were on Wednesday tried by court-martial for robbery. The cuirassier was met, on the 6th October last, at St. Denis, by a gendarme, and as he seemed anxious to avoid the officer's observa tion, the latter deemed it right to call on him to show him his written leave of absence. The man very reluc tantly produced a written leave, but it had expired two days before. The gendarme accordingly arrested him, and when he was taken to the guard-house a pack age of ball cartridges fell from his helmet. Questioned as to how he became possessed of the cartridges, he stated that they had been given to him by a friend at Vincennes; but on inquiry it turned out tbat they had been stolen by his brother, the corporal, who was em ployed in the Boole de Tire of that fortress. The two brothers were severally sentenced to three months' im prisonment. M. Ribsllo, a wealthy Brazilian, who arrived in Paris some time ago, ordered a carria ge of Mine. Masson, Rue du Chateau of d'Eau, for 3,2001., but subject to the con dition that it should possess all the latest improvements, and that he should not be obliged to take it if he did not like it. When the carriage was delivered, he refused to receive it, on the ground that it was not lined with the stuff which he had selected, that it was badly varnished, that the doors did not close well, and that it had other defects. Mine. Masson thereupon took proceedings against him as a foreigner, and he was arrested for the 3,200 f. Having deposited the money he obtained his liberty, and or. Wednesday he applied to the President of the Civil Tribunal, sitting in chambers, to order a practical man to examine and report on the carriage, iu order that he might take proceedings to recover his money. The president granted his application. A. dressmaker of the Faubourg Poissonniere lately de manded from ter landlord 80,000 f. under the threat of murdering him. It appears that, with her husband, she svab • recently declared bankrupt by the Tribunal of Com merce, this caused such an impression on her that became affected. Her motive for assailing th e it appears, that she thought he was one o f high a rent, Before starting in business in the Faubourg landlord mind main o' r causes vas, of her ruin by having made her p a y t oo Poissonniere' the woman and her husband had sa ve d up 40,000 f., but they soon, by mismanagement and tins fortune, lost the whole of it. In addition to a second pistol found on her, she had in her pocket a letter ad dressed to her husband, in which she announced her in tention of murdering the landlord if he would not give her 30,0001. ALDERMAN SALOMONS ND THE JEWS OF BIRMINGBALL On Wednesday, last a deputation from tL s e Jews of Birmingham waited upon Alderman Salomons to pre sent a congratulatory address on his election as Lord Mayor of London. The deputation, which consisted of the minister, the R ev . A. P. Mendes, Messrs. Phillips and Danziger, the wardens ; and several other gentle men of the community, was most courteously received , by the worthy alderman, who warmly acknowledged the compliment paid him by this unexpected demonstration. The address was as follows : ;;sedsrsischarge of civil: and "To D.

The only evidence taken at the opening of the inquest oa Monday was that of a •witness to idea tify the body of the deceased. The jury had already in spected the locality of the accident. Mr. Sanders, solicitor, attended the inquiry on be. half of the railway company. There were also present —Mr. Adcock, manager of tee line ; Mr. Critchley, the superintendent ; Mr. Whitton, engineer of the perma nent way ; Mr. Joy, of the locomotive department (on behalf of Mr. Williams, the contractor for working the railway) ; and Mr. Haller, solicitor, on behalf of the contractor. Mr. Senders produced apiin pf the line at the place where the accident happened. Mr. Whitcomb appeared for Mr. Burbury, one of the sufferers by the accident. Mr. Critcbley, being sworn, produced a raps , of the rules arid regula,tions of the company, and the timetable of the passenger trains. Lloyd, carpet-weaver, of Kidderminster, de posed that be was on the Chester-lane bridge over the railway on the evening of the accident (Friday last). This was the second bridg e from the Kidderminster sta tion. It was about a quarter past nine in the evening, and witness saw a goods train approaching from Wol verhampton at the usual rate of speed. As the train passed under the bridge towards Kidderminster witness saw a passenger-train following it, at a distance of per haps a quarter of a mile. Witness, saw the white light up (all right) at the distance signal, and as the passenger train approached, and about two seconds before it pas se d under the bridge witness saw the white light changed for a rec.' one (danger). The passenger train was going at a "tidy" rate ; as far as he could guess, he thought at the rate of 20 or 30 miles an hour. He thought a colli sion would take place between the two trains, and said so to a person who was standing with' him on the bridge. They listened as the passenger train moved on, and heard the expected eel is on take place, on which he ran along the side of the line to the spot. The first thing that he saw was a man (the deceased) with both his legs twisted in all forms and broken, lying by the side of the line. He was alive, and epoke once or twice when his pain allowed him. Witness rendered what assistance he - could, and helped to carry him to the Kidderminster Infirmary on a door. The night was darkish. By the jury—Tbe accident happened at about a quarter. past 9, and the man was brought to the infirmary at about 10 o'clock. The passenger train ewes travelling faster than the goods train. Mr. Critchley was recalled, and, producing the time tines, said the goods train should have left the Bush bury Junction, a mile and a half from Wolverhampton, at 330 p.m. That train, was due at Kidderminster at 630 p.m. The passenger train left Wolverhampton at 8 15 p.m., and arrived at Kidderminster at 9 16 p.m. When a train was behind time (as this goods train was) no extra signals were employed. The ordinary signals were used. Mr. Hillman, surgeon, deposed that he atteeded the decade(' within ten minutes or a quarter of an hour after the ac ident occurred. He was being brought on a door to the platform of the Kidderminster station. His pulse was nearly gone, and hi- hands and face were e dd. He directed him to be taken at once to the in firmary. On examination at the infirmary he found both legs smashed to pieces like splinters, compound fractures of both legs, aid the left thigh was also broken. He was pi rtectly sensible until two minutes before his death. He gradually sank, and died in about three quarters of an hour after he was taken to the infirmary. The injuries described were sufficient to cause his death. Witness believed the deceased was aware that he must die. He said, "Oh, Lord ! my poor. wife," but did not say he should never recover. Mr. George Jackson, 'station-master at Kiddermin ster, was in the stationlard at the time of the collision, and went at once to the spot. The collision took piece at the elbow of the curve of the line at this point. The collision had arisen from: a passenger train having run into a goods train. Found several of the luggage trucks had been thrown over both lines, and further on about 20 yards from the break-van of the goods train upon the render of the passenger train, which preceded the engine, and which had been forced through. the bottom of the break van of the goods train. Found the deceased, who was the guard of the goods train, lying on the embank ment near to the remains of the goods van. Looked up to the distance-signal at the Chester-lane bridge, and found the red light was exhibited. The distance-signal could not be seen from the station. The signal could be seen the other way (cowards Churchill) at least half a mile. No extra precautions were taken in the case of a goods train being two hours and a half behind time, with the exception of se sing that no train followed within a certain time. Had not ascertained the cause of the delay of the goods train, and did not at the time of the accident know where the goodattrain was. The passen ger train on approaching the station should travel at about 12 miles an hour, and the goods train at the rate of about four or five miles an hour. The distance from the Kidderminster station to the Churchill station—the next station from Kidderminster towards Wolverhamp ton—was three miles. No train was by the regulations to be allowed to follow a nother on the same line bf rails within five minutes. ' tut time should have allowed the goods train to get to 7 Eidderminster before. the pas senger train could "come up The passenger trains were telegraphed forward as the y arrived at the principal sta tions. The passenger trai in in question had beau tele graphed to Kidderminster' from Stourbridge, the next - ' telegraph station. The goods train bad not been tele graphed. He did not know that the goods train had not arrived at the time of the accident, though overdue two hours and a half. If they 1 tad known when the engine of the goods train appeared in sight that it was a goods train they would have haste; aed it on by a "to and fro" motion of the signal, in ord er to get it out of the way of the passenger train, which, was du e . It was not cuato tomary in the case ofi a delay in agoods train to telegraph the fact on to other statitoi is. The signalman, Johiah Lacey, kept a book, in whieh were entered the times of the arrival of the trains, b ut he did not give information to the stationmaster when they were behind time, as in the case of the goods trai ain this instance There was not sufficient siding accoosmodation at Kidderminster to shunt all trains upon, and when this was the case a goods train would be got out of the way of a following passen eer train in order to allow it to pass, and would be put upon the other line. This occupied more time than if there was more siding accommodation. A luggage train would be four to five ininu tea coining from Churchill to Kidderminster, and a pas senger train three to four minutes. Five minutes' grace would be sufficient for a goods train to arrive from Churchill at Kidderminster, and be shunted out of the Pray of a passenger train fol lowing. It was the duty of the goods manager to look after the goods trains. The stationmaster was the su perior officer at the station. t. eqohn Rea, foreman of the porters at the Kiddermin ster station, having been c autioned by the Coroner that his evidence might be used agaistst him, was sworn, and stated that at 9.15 he saw a train approaching the sta tion round the curve, and saw Lacey, the signalman, put on the " danger" signal. The first he knew of the accident was from the stoker of the goods train, who came up to him and said, ` Q say, John, th ey ' ve p i tched into us." He (witness) sa " Never," b u t h e sa i d, " They have ;" and then told him how it had happened. Witness went to the spot, and described the nature of the accident as already reported. 'All the precautions were taken that could have bison taken. The trains were regularly telegraphed from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. The tele graph clerks left the stations at 8 p.m. Three trains— one up and two down—passed the station at Kiddermin ster after 9 p.m., between goodie trains. There were two goods trains due at Kidderminster at the time of the ac cident--one due at 3.30, and the other at 6.30. The 9 goods trains were generally behind time. By the jury —A goods train would oocuPY minutes coming f rom Ch urc hill , an d a pass enger train about eight m i nu t es. [Th e stationmaster h a d given the time as between th ree an d f our m i nu t e s.] At this period a s h or t a dj ournm ent took place, and the inquiry was still p rocee di ng when the last available train for London left Kidderminster.

FATAL ACCIDENT.—A. little boy, named Baudin, went on Thursday to the public washhouse iu the Place Dupleix with a message for his sister, who was employed there ; and in his baste he stumbled against something on the flo:‘r, and fell into a large vessel full of boiling water. He was immediately got out, and conveyed to the hospital, but was so dreadfully scalded that he died in a few hours.—Galignani's Messenger. A NEW SECT.—There is great talk at present about a new church and sect which are in progress of formation at Forres. Whether rumour be correct or not, time will tell. The scheme is this ; the disaffected in all the churches are to unite and form a new congregation, under the title of the " Grand - Union Church," no matter what denomination the minister be—Established, Free, or United Presbyterian —so that he can deliver his ser innpaper.
