CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.—Mr. Prior, 15, Finsbury place, was summoned for not complying with the regu lations issued by the Court of Aldermen, with reference to thb traffic over London bridge. Police-constable 257 stated that he was on duty on the Surrey side of London-bridge, on Friday the 14th inst., for the purpose of regulating the traffic according to the orders issued by the Court of Aldermen for that pur pose. The defendant, who was driving a pony in a four wheel carriage, was going at a " slow straggling trot" between the walking and trotting ranks. He spoke to him respecting it, and put the horses' head twice into the trotting ranks, but the defendant would not drive there, and insisted on going into the vialking rank, saying he would go where he liked, and do as he pleased. 31i 1 90 In cross-examination by Mr. Farrer, who appeared for the defendant, witness said be did not know if the defendant was aware of the regulations. He did not inform him what they were. The regulations were posted up at each end of the bridge. Mr. Prior said he knew nothing of the regulations, and was not aware they were posted up. Mr. Farrer contended the defendant had not com mitted a breach of the regulations, neither had he done anything to render him liable to magisterial interference. He had a perfect right to drive either a walk or a trot over London-bridge. _ _ Alderman Kennedy said there could be no doubt the public had a right to drive either a walk or trot over the bridge, but it was necessary ,they should comply with the regulation to facilitate the passage of the traffic over the bridge, and prevent obstructions. In this case, after the horse's head was turned into the trotting rank, and the defendant elected to go in the walking rank, he resisted the authority of the police, and said b e would go and do as he liked. He fined him 55., and the expenses. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(TIILS DAY.) MANSION-HOUSE. ASSAULTING THE POLICE. —George Wilson, was charged with being drunk and disorderly, and violently assault ing the police. I Police-contable 482 deposed that last night, about a quarter to 10 o'clock, the prisoner was drunk in Man sion-house-street, and obstructing the pathway. Two females came to him and complained of his conduct. He cautioned him, on which he used most foul language imaginable. He then took him into custody, and when removing him from the office to the cell he kicked him such a severe blow on the shin of the le-g that he was afraid he should have to give up duty for some time. The prisoner denied assaulting the policeman, and said the charge was preferred against him through spite. An officer of the court said the prisoner was a noted character. He had been four times brought here and three times committed to Holloway. The prisoner asked Sir W. Carden to look it over this time. He would never come before him again as be in tended on Monday to join the Land Transport Corps. Sir W. Carden said the prisoner must defer joining the Land Transport Corps for 14 days, during which time he would visit Holloway, and be kept on bread and dis water. He was accordingly committed for 14 days. James Kirk was charged. with assaulting James O'Connor with a pitchfork. The complainant stated that he went this morning into Blue-yard, Bevis Marks, for his truck, where the defendant, who keeps a horse there was cleaning it. The horse being in the way, be requested the defendant to move it, which he refused, and an altercation took place between them, in the couseof which the defendantstruck at him with a pitchfork, and in putting his hand , up to guard the blow off, the prong of the fork went through his hand ; he was also struck on the head and leg. Defendant said the complainant was a very hasty man, and it was in consequence of his conduct towards the horse that tha altercation took place. Sir W. Carden—But that is no reason why you should pitchfork him. Inspector Scott, P. C. 625, and the defendant's land lord gave him an excellent character. The complainant, they said, was of very drunken habits and quarrelsome disposition. A young man who was present said the defendant did not strike the complainant with the pitch fork. He believed . he received the injury in his hand in searching for a hammer amengst some empty cases with which to strike the defendant ; it was thou the complainant had recourse to the pitch fork. Sir R. W. Carden bound them both over to kecp the peace for six months. BOW-STREET. POST-OFFICE ROBBERY.— Richard lValkcr, a sorter in the General Post•office, was placed at the bar, in accor• dance with remand, charged with stealing two letters. It will be recollected that at the last examination the prisoner was remanded, in order that the two parties by whom the letters were sent might be communicated with. The evidence of Mr. Clarke having been read over to him, Mr. Peacock asked the witness whether he had any doubt that the coat the prisoner at present wore was the one he had on when the robbery was committed. Mr. Clarke was perfectly confident that the coat the prisoner had on at present was the one ho had on the whole of the morning in question. It was alleged by the prisoner that the letter must have been placed in his pocket, as he had left it lying under the stairs for some time the morning he was ac• cused of robbery. Mr. 'Tuck was then called, and having looked at one of the letters, which was addressed " Mr. R. Tuck, Great Western Stables, Paddington," stated that he had no doubt the letter was intended for him. The magistrate then ordered the witness to open the letter, and it was found to contain a sovereign placed in a card. Mr. Henry Toomer, residing at 117, Limington-street, Vauxhall-road, having looked at the other letter, which was addressed to him, opened it in presence of the ma gistrate, and it was found to contain a half sovereign similarly fastened in a card as the preceding letter. The letter was from ra relative of his wife's named Thorne, and it came from Hampshire. The prisoner having been called upon for his defence, said he should reserve what ha had to say till a future occasion. The prisoner was then fully committed for trial. ---- SHERIFF OF LONDON.—Mr. Henry Francis Richard son, citizen and joiner, is a candidate for this distin guished office next year, and there is no doubt that bis numerous supporters, at whose solicitation be has come forward, will have every reason to be satisfied with their selection. We have no hesitation in saying that, if elected, ho will serve the office with dignity and princely splendour.

The following letter, addressed to a Parisian journal, contains an account of the operations of the allied fleet in the Sea of Azoff, down to the ' latest date received from that quarter : YENIKALE, Sept. 5. 7 -The allied flotilla, consisting of three English vessels and three French, ran into Ghee itschi to within a distance of 1,000 or 1,100 yards, and bombarded the place again. What had been only da maged before by cannon shot has now become a prey to, the flames. Two Russian post-houses and some barracks, laid out for a winter camp, have met with the same fate as the town, of which the outline alone remains. The enemy never thought of replying, Ind, as we say' at sea, contented himself with at once clearing old. After the bombardment, our flotilla proceeded to the Spit of A rabat, as an expedition had been planned with the object of burning some small vessels discovered in the Putrid Sea and a village placed on our maps to the south-west, of Ghenitschi. A strong westerly, wind, how ever, put an end to our preparations for the attack. It is imposiible to conceive the sudden rapidity with which these storms arise inthese parts. The fathomless water soon rolls in alternate mountain and abyss, and renders the navigation excessively dangerous. We have happily to deplore no loss of life, and got cheaply off with three or four boats-crews well ducked. The project, however, is but postponed. The Sea of Azoff is perpetually agitated by our little steamere. Nothing escapes their vigilance, and if I have no great exploits to recount, because such are materially impossible, I have at least the satisfaction of assuring you that every one does his boat. Each of the squadron cannonades, burns, and destroys all that it soes, and it is evident that , the sum total of these partial operations inflicts en the enemy. considerable damage. Our Ciminerian Bosphorus presents a more animated appearance since the arrival of our steam gun and mor tar boats. They take a tack every day into the Strait, and exercise their guns. They will be of immense ser; vice at the proper time and place. On the 17th of last month they were laid broadside on off Kertcb, at about one hundred yards from the quay, and exhibited:a for midable row of ordnance. This precaution was the re sult of the appearance of an advanced guard of infantry and irregular cavalry, and a movement of Cossacks, which led us to anticipate an attack on the town during the night, with the intention of burning our corn stores. Everything was ready for the reception of the marauders, bat the pight passed off tranquilly, and the next morning the enemy was seen at a little village two or three miles to the north of Yenikale. This force was estimated at 6,000 strong, and was supposed to be the advanced guard of Wrangel's corps. We were expecting him for four-and-twenty hours, and the whole camp was in delight. The ships moored off had orders to be in readiness to support us. We were all deceived, and learnt that the enemy had beated a retreat, carrying off with him a few Tartars and some head of cattle, for which we intend to make him pay very dear, if he should again make his appear ance. It is very doubtful, though, if the Russians will ever come to attack us, as they know we are perfectly entrenched, and even strong enough to offer him battle. Whatever may happen we are ready for it, and are long ing for something to break the monotony of our ex- t istence. In my next letter I shall probably be able to give you an account of the result of a little expedition that we know. to be in preparation, though the quarter it is in tended for is of course kept secret.

TheTchongar-bridge, or causeway, crosses the Siwash, and we are inclined to consider the passage extremely dangerous to a Russian army that should, under present circumstances, attempt to retreat by it out of the Crimea. The Perekop line, which winds some twenty-five miles more to the west, though at a varying distance, is less liable to be molested by the assistance of our naval means —less liable, at least, for the present ; and by the Perekop, or western line, therefore, we expect to find Prince Gortschakoff will eventually strive to extricate his columns. We are assuredly not at this moment going to speculate on events which the next despatches will put in a light far more clear than conjecture, however careful or acute, could throw upon the suture. But there are some essentially permanent elements of calculation at which it may be interesting to glance. Will Prince Gortschakoff at once retreat ? We will state briefly why we think that, if he do not retreat—in fast, if he have not already begun that operation—it will be all the better for the allies. But, first, it may be as well to observe that, supposing he retires—or can re tire—it will, without doubt, not be by the Tehoogar bridge or line, but by that which swerves westward from it towards Perekop, on passing north of Simpheropol. We are inclined to anticipate that the Russians are vir tually cut away from the Tchongarecauseway, which has been, besides, cut through itself. It may possibl y h ave been repaired since our burst into the Putrid Sea ; but it is at certain moments still accessible to our boats. This being so, Prince Gortschakoff is forced to lean to his own left, once he passes Simpheropol; and the left runs along. a coast which we everywhere command. But suppose he won't retreat—suppose he stands his ground. This, in the first place, is supposing something else—we mean that he has provisions ; and no one can assure us that this is the fact. But grant that the enemy has ample supplies, and that he defies us to try the strength of the North Forts. We are obliged to do no thing of the sort. He can be made to evacuate those forts without a shot at them. Two plans are mentioned, both being obvious and patent. One is, to ship a large force north-westward (Prince Gortschakoff being forced by the situation, as we have pointed out, to lean to his own left in case he retires), and thus to threaten his communications, and make him fight a battle with the Allies, while the Allies have their faces to the south. We decline to discuss this, further than to say, that the supply of water for the expeditionary corl% must be carefully looked to, and that the enemy is not absolutely certain to be thus brought to a collision at all. He might evade the blow, or fight against us only with a flank corps. On the other hand, the enemy is right before us at Mackenzie's Heights ; and he must -either wait there for us, if we choose there to attack him, or abandon the north of Sebastopol altogether. For what would become of the troops now locked up is the Sievernaya, if General Liprandi ceded to an attack in his front, and allowed the Allies to interpose between northern Sebastopol and the only egress it possesses ? We are, therefore, sure of finding our opponents, supposing we immediately cross the Tchernaya ; nay, we shall find others besides those now stationed on those heights, for it is all in all to Prince Gortschakoff to leave no separate fate to General Liprandi, but to join fortunes with him, and either re treat in his company, or share in his resistance. He will do both, as we take it. And thus the Sievernaya can be carried without a siege, by a vigorous attack on the position in its rear. But, in the second place, this attack would leave the in( ien sure of their water supply, and we do attach high importance to this. All great generals have ever con sidered the point even before that of bread. The men that have their coffee, with a little rice or flour are in a better condition to fight than the troops who come parched and staggering, with a loaf of bread half eaten, and a bottle of brandy half drunk, against adversaries cool and alert. At the combat of the Tchernaya, on the 16th of August, the poor Russian masses had nothing but raki to drink till they began to ford that river, when many a shako served for a cup. In the reverse advance (of the Allies) the reverse would be true. There is another circumstance well worthy of notice in a movement against Mackenzie's,Heights. We mean it is the natural step to be taken next. The frue basis of the Allies, for some time to come, must be Ka miesh and Balaklava ; for, although it may appear that our fleets can carry provisions and ammunition to any point they please along the coast, it is, nevertheless, cer tain that, for the distribution of such articles, an organi sation is needful on land, and that, by means of this orga nisation, they are now actually circulating through the south confines of Sebastopol from Inkerman to Baidar. It seems to us that good generalship is required now, but that it will be well rewarded by the results. If in thela.st splendid fury of their despair the brave and unfortunate Rus sian garrison attempt the line of the Tchernaya, we hold, we trust, no military heresy when we say that it is highly essential to smash that attack on the forehead, to win a really crushing victory, and to put an end, by the fame of it, to the selfish hesitations of even German Courts. And for this reason, again, we do not wsnt the lines from Inkerman to Kadikol and Baidar to be unj seasonably enfeebled. But this they will not be. What ever plan may have been selected by the Allied Gene rals, it will unquestionably not entail upon us the ridi culous position in which Eumenes, after-a defeat, once p'aced his adversaries. But Marshal Pelissier deserves to be rated rather above Antigonus ; nor, in the con trary ranks, is Prince Gortschakoff quite a Eumenes. The opponents are not very ill-matched ; though the ad vantage, in point of head, is apparently on the side of the Allies. A few days must display to us some of the morn decisive moves of this great game. TEE LATE FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT NEAR GLOSSOP, The inquest on the three unfortunate persons killed at the viaduct of the Manchester and Sheffield Railway across Dinting, on Tuesday night, was opened at the Plough Inn, Dinting, on Wednesday evening. The de ceased, as before stated, were John Healey, 25 years of age, back tenter in a print works ; Thomas Priestnall, aged 30, weaver; and Jane Hadfield, aged 25, a winder in a cotton factory. They had been with a party of Sun day school teachers to spend the day at the Bellevue gardens, Manchester. Healey and Hadfield were teachers in the Little Moor Independent Sunday school, and the former had been educated to become a minister among the Independents. The Derbyshire coroner, Mr. T. M. Ellisson, and the jury were taken by ono of the railway officials upon the viaduct in one of the com pany's trains, in order that they might form a correct idea of the way in which the occurrence happened. It appears that the parapets of the viaduct are rather more than a yard high, and 3ft. 4in. from the nearest rail. The bottom of a railway carriage is rather higher than the parapet. The deceased were riding in a third-class carriage, with two doors on each side, and having a light inside. This light would probably affect the eye sight a little on first alighting from the carriage, and its reflection upon the coping stones of the parapet would give them the appearance of a platform. A parson who witnessed the accident says Healey was the first to jump out of the carriage, saying, as he stepped.upon the parapet, "This is the way out." He held out his hand fur Jane Hadfield, who took it as he stepped back, and they instantly disappeared together. A faint cry was gasped by the unfortunate woman. Another young woman, named Harriet Rawson, got out upon the step of the carriage, and thence upon the parapet ; but, having some doubt about its being the platform of the station, she tried the width of it with one foot while she stood on the other, and at this critical moment, one pas senger crying out that it was the viaduct, and another that a woman had already fallen over, some of her companions in the carriage caught hold of her dress and dragged her in again. It was then that Priestnall sprung out of the second carriage upon the parapet and fell over. The train* then moved forward into the station, and infor mation was given to the watchman of what had occurred. The following evidence was given at the inquest : Harriet Hampson said she lived at Glossop. On Tuesday she went to Bellevue-gardens, Manchester, and returned by the train, leaving Gorton soon after nine at night. Deceased were of th same party. When the train stopped on the viaduct she saw John Healey get out. He said, "This is the way," and he jumped. Jane Hadfield followed, and also jumped. Witness went out next, and stood upon the wall. She felt with her foot that it was not the ground. She turned her back upon the carriages, and looked for Healey and Hadfield, but could not see them. She thought it was only a low wall at the end of the viaduct, and that they had fallen behind it. They appeared to vanish out of sight in jump ing out of the carriage, and she saw no more of them. She had just time to turn round when some one called out that she would fall over, and that a young man and woman had already fallen over. She returned to the carriage, and begged that some one would look after Healey and Hadfield, when Priestnall Caine over from another seat and jumped out. Immediately Priestnall had jumped out the train moved on into the station. Did not think the train had been standing more than one minute when Healey and Hadfield got out. The distance from the carriage to the wall appeared to be about half a yard, and the bottom of the carriage and the wall ap peared nearly on a level. She could have got down be tween the carriage and the wall, but did not, because it was deep, and she thought the wall was the platform. It was very dark, and she could see nothing but the wall and the carriages. They had been singing a hymn as they came along, and she tho u g ht the y were in the sta tiopn,etbeurt osafiadnyhoeffihcaerds ofh been n e company. Bellevue an S s a i d w e b n o o t t t h o u m g with the deceased. The train moved slowly over the viaduct till it stopped, and they thought it was at the station. The women in the carriages rushed towards the door. A man cried out, " There's a woman killed," and he then turned round and looked at the door, which was open; and he called to the women and told them to come in and shut the door, and " that they might have no sense, standing there." He did not hear any one call out to say it was the station. There was a light in the carriage. They had not been standing more than three minutes, perhaps, when he beard the cry that a woman had been killed. Ile saw Harriet Hampson go out and come in again, and the train started soon afterwards. John Brindle, night watchman on the viaduct, said the train arrived about 12 minutes before 10 o'clock. He was told that some passengers had jumped over the parapet, and he went down into the fields outside, and found the deceased persons lying on their backs. Healey and Hadfield were dead. Priestnall was removed alive, and surgical assistance was sent for, but he died in about 40 minutes. There was room for a person to stand safely between the parapet and a moving train. There were about half-a-dozen porters at the station, attending to the Liverpool special train, which had arrived about eight or nine minutes before the Manchester one came up, and the latter had to stop on the viaduct six or seven minutes before it could get up to the station. The Manchester train bad to be stopped on the viaduct until the Liverpool train h a d b een shunted upon the Glossop branch.' The Manchester train stopped 80 or 100 yards from the station. The inquest was adjourned. THE FALL OP SEBASTOPOL. The Pays, referring to the intelligence conveyed in General Pelissier's last telegraphic despatches, makes the following brief observations :-- "The preservation of Fort Nicholas and of the Qua rantine Fort renders the batteries of Fort Constantine of no effect, and adds much to the obstacles which the Russians would have to meet with in establishing them selves in the Northern Fort, Besides, the rumour was generally accredited at Vienna that on the 17th Prince Gortschakoff had been informed of the retreat of the Russian corps encamped at Bakshi-Serai and Simphero pol. It is . not, however, impossible that, in place of proceeding towards Perekop, the road of which cou ld be intercepted by . the Turkish army at Eupatoria, the Russians, might endeavour to reach New Russia by the lagoons of the Putrid Sea, where the allied army could not pursue them, Whatever may be the exacti tude of that intelligence, we still think that the Russian army bas not any other reasonable course to adopt, as Sebastopol was its only point.d'appui in the Crime a . A ,stay of a longer or shorter continuance at Baksbi-Serai or near the fortS on the north exposes it to complete destruction when the allies resume the offensive. Besides; Sebastopol. being lost, and Eupatoria, Kamiesh, Bala klava, Kedah, Jeni-Kale, and the Black Sea occupied by the allies, what advantage could' the Russians hope to derive from a longer delay hi the mountains of the • Crimea." • Spener's Gazette of Berlin, of the 17th, makes the following remarks on the fall of Sebastopol " Had Sebastopol been taken a year ago, the Russian fleet of the Black Sea and the establishments of the Bus. sian navy would no doubt have been destroyed as they are now, but the taking of Sebastopol would have been but a lucky stroke, and would have produced no greater effect than lucky strokes generally do. But now this great maritime fortress has fallen by one of the most remark able sieges of modern times. Its fall has cost a struggle which has lasted nearly a year, and in which both Rus sia and the Western Powers have put forth all their strength. To obtain a decisive result, three battles and three great assaults have been required ; and as this re sult has turned to the disadvantage of Russia on her own soil, we may conclude that even on land Russia is no match for the Western Powers, and that the con tinuation of the war would but entail new disasters upon her. - This explains why the news of. the fall of Sebastopol has produced so deep an impression through out Europe, and will not produce an inferior one in Asia." A private letter from Stockholm adds some details to the accounts already given of the joy manifested in that city by the news of taking of Sebastopol. The principal citizens at oncelassembled to decide on a place for a gene ral illumination, which took place, and an immense crowd paraded the streets, hailing with their bravos those houses which were the most strikingly decorated. One house alone was plunged in deep obscurity. "It need not," says the writer, " be mentioned that this was the Russian legation, and in passing by this divelling the crowd hastened their steps, as if to leave an accursed spot." The Frankfort Post Gazette, of Sept. 18, has the following respecting the fortifications on the north side of Sebastopol : "The fortifications bordering the roadstead of Sebas topol on the north form two distinct sections ; some being situated to the west and directed against an attack made from the Black Sea, while the others lie to the south and converge their fire on Sebastopol and the roadstead. The space separating the two sections of intrenchments is defended by Fort Constantine, the guns of which command both' the roadstoad and the sea. On the western coast we fir,t meet with the Wasp battery and that of the Telegraph ; then, turning near Fort Constantine, we find ourselves before Fort Cathe rine, armed with 120 guns, and two other batteries " ra santes " on the border of the bay. The rocky ground, so cut up with ravines, of the Southern table-land, rises from the level of the sea by an abrupt ascent; The table-land was before the Invasion crowned tkith several batteries, partly cut into the living rock, but since then the whole shore of the bay, as far as the Inkerznan light-house, has been covered with earthen entrenchments. Further in the back-ground, in the centre of these works, the summit of the table-land, bears the star-shaped fort named Severnaya, bat also called the Citadel.' Of the fortifications on the line of the Belbek we have no details whatever. All we know is that when in 1854 the allied army, after the battle .of tbe Alma, marched on Sebastopol, it found the north side unassailable, and was obliged to make the flank march recorded at the time, for the pur pose of turning Sebastopol and reaching the south side of the town, which was known to be weakly fortified. This proves that even at that date North Sebastopol was in rather a formidable condition. Since that period they have certainly extended and strengthened the defences of this position ; while prolonging them as far as Upper Belbek, they have formed an intrenched camp for the Russian army of reserve. At the mouth of the Belbek the Allies found even last year a regular fort. The forts on the north side are capable of containing a garrison of 25 , 000 men. THE TAKING OF THE MALAKHOFF. A French letter from Constantinople of the 11th states that the news of the taking of the Malakhoff, which reached at 2 o'clock p.m., produced in that capital an immense sensation. It was, however, considered too good to be true, and many hesitated to believe it. The Greeks openly manifested their incredulity. Despatches from head-quarters received the same day per the Amsterdam con firmed all that had been announced by the electric telegraph. The letter goes on to say— " The Malakhoff Tower, attacked with unexampled impetuosity to the cry of Vire l'Empereur,' was carried after a murderous struggle on both sides. The formidable position was occupied without . delay, and batteries were established on it with remarkable celerity. The Little Redan of Careening Bay was also taken, but as the Russian batteries poured down a tremendous fire on those who were the first to occupy it, our men were obliged to'abandon it to return to it afterwards. The few details I have picked up I send you in haste, as the Indus weighs anchor in two hours. On the night of the 7th all the necessary arrangements were taken by General Pelissier with admirable precision. On the Btb, at mid-day our assaulting columns issued from their posts, and marched on against the enemy to the cry of Vive l'Empercur,' with an impetuosity beyond all description, and in spite of a terrible fire in front, and a flanking fire from the Little Redan, the ditch was soon passed, and after an hour of a murderous struggle the French flag floated on the tower, and was hailed with one electric shout of triumph by the whole army. Batteries were instantly placed in posi tion, and we are established in the Malakhoff in as solid a manner as if we had held the place for a long time past. Our battery poured down on the Russian fleet a perfect storm of shells ; three ships were set on fire in spite of the precautions of the Rus sians, and the follo w i ng morn i ng those that bad not been destroyed by our shot were sunk by the Russians. The south part of the city was on fire, and the Russians passed into the north forts. "Our losses are severe. Several Generals have been killed ; four are wounded. I have only been able to as certain one name among the latter—that of General Bosquet. We have, moreover, 4,000 men hors de com bat. I cannot vouch for the exactness of this last num br, on the Redanandthefirstestitbnyattehies EtonogThenwtelsrrmonaedoeuws.ithTtihiee attack utmost vigour. They were repulsed three times, but each time those gallant troops returned to the charge, and remained masters of the position. The Little Redan of CarOsning Bay was also occupied, but the Russian fire, which inflicted enormous injury on the first occu pants, did not allow us to maintain it. A telegraphic despatch, received yesterday at the French embassy, announces that the city is occupied by the allied troops. I am in hourly expectation of letters from the Crimea, which, I trust, will give me more complete details than those I now send you. A postscript to the foregoing says : " A. letter written on board the Indus, at 7 p.m., con tains the following General Rivet is killed, as also Colonel Chassaigne, General Pelissier's Chief of the Staff. The English have suffered severely. When the Russians saw that we were masters of the Malakhoff Tower they blew up the Redan. All was mined, but they had no time to blow up the Malakhoff. I learn from an eye-witness that the Russians blew up the Centre Bastion ; as they were retiring the Quarantine was also on fire. We now occupy the entire of the south part of the city. The Russians set fire to the small vessels and sank the large ones. It appears that for those who were on board the fleet the sight they be held was impossible to give an idea of. The French dashed into the city undismayed and undeterred by the flames." Another letter from the Crimea gives an idea of the state of discouragement of the Russians be fore the attack of Sebastopol "A very short while ago a corps of 1,000 men was required for a sortie against the French, who were oc cupied in certain works particularly obnoxious to the Russians. These last had been boasting that they could furnish not only 1,000, but 10,000 volunteers at any moment. Only 150, neither more nor less, presented themselves ; the sortie was abandoned, and the French went on with their work quietly. PROPOSED INCREASE OF THE Dom RATES AT LIVER.. PooL.—At the meeting of the Liverpool Dock Com mittee on Thursday, after the reporters had left the room, dt ur 0 the fo rh chairmanteyar produced an estimate of the expen diture the 30th of June next, includ ing 200,0001. for new works and the repair of existing works, and stated that, taking the income of the present year at the same amount as last year, there would pro bably be a deficiency of upwards of 18,0001. in the re ceipts as compared with the expenditure. In order to meet this deficiency it was presumed that it would be necessary to increase the dock rates on ships and goods to the extent of 10 per cent. Mr. Evans thought the committee should have taken their financial position into consideration before they made the purchases of land from the Earl of Derby and Mr. J. S. Leigh. The dis cussion upon the subject will be taken next Thursday. 100 100 1.00 20 20 50 50 100 100 St. 16 , 5 St. 20 12A 25 20 1.0,f
