There are many conflicting rumours in circula tion as to the proceedings likely to follow the triumphant termination of " the Siege of Sebasto pol," the destruction of the Russian fleet, and the occupation by the Allies of the chief portion of the stronghold, under cover whereof that fleet had so long been sheltered and protected. Some boldly assert that the north side will be as obsti nately defended as the southern district had pre viously been—that a great battle will be fought, and another determined effort made to expel the invaders from the Crimean soil ; while others, with greater apparent reason, declare that the chief efforts of the Russians will be to escape from the difficult position in which they are placed, and to avoid if possible the degradinL: alternative of laying down their arms as pri soners of war. The latter course seems by far the most probable under existing circum stances, and the utmost vigilance should be dis played by the Allied Generals to turn to the bee account the important triumph already accom plished. The Russian army has been too com pletely exhausted by previous exertions, its spiril too entirely broken by the discovery of the fruit lessness of all its efforts, to render practicable an other attack against an army flushed with nume rous victories, holding an impregnable position, and numerically (as well as in all other qualities) superior to the half-fed and desponding serfs by whom it could be assailed. The great object of ' the stubborn and pertinacious defence has been defeated. The enormous stores, accumulated during a long succession of years, are either de stroyed or in the hands of the Allies. Why, then, should the most reckless desperation hazard an other pitched battle, from the result whereof the Russians would have so much to dread and so little to hope. We can understand a despairing effort like that on the Traktir Bridge so long as Sebas topol still held out. But when the standards of France and England floated over its blood-stained ruins, what adequate motive could there be to justify so wanton a sacrifice of human life ? We do not believe, then, that the Russians will risk the chances of another battle, if its can by any possibility be avoided. Nor do we think that they will so earnestly defend the northern forts, more especially as they will have a more formi dable adversary to encounter than any that even France or England could send forth. They will have to bear the ravages of famine in its most frightful aspects. What has already been accomplished will render the cutting off of all communication between the garri son and the army in the field not merely practicable, but easy. Without losing a single man by fire or sword, they must succumb to the fearful privations to which they will necessarily be subjected, and from which they have alread‘ suffered in no ordinary degree. We believe then that the suggestions respect ing a pitched battle to be the suggestions of Mus covite sympathisers, of the advocates for Peace at any Price or on any condition, and that the object is to prevent the Allies from taking duo advan tage of the golden opportunity still available. They well know that nothing can be done at 1-3( '`'La 3 toPol, or in its vicinity, to endanger the. p os ition of the Allies—that it is most probable that the great body of the Russian troops have already been withdrawn from Northern Sebastopol, and that, as we suggested or , Saturday, a similar course has been fol lowed on the Mackenzie heights, a show merely. being kept up of a defence, the futi lity whereof will be apparent at the first serious trial. It is to prevent the much dreaded opera tion in the rear, the despatch of powerful rein forcements to Eupatoria, or the closing of the various channels of communication in the neigh bourhood of the Teheterlik, that th e y h ave ao in dustriously circulated these canards. Their great fear is that the retreat by Perekop, as well as the cwibility of obtalawg ii:ipplitifrwa that quartin', may be cut off, and either an escape, or the main ',onance of their position iu the interior, rendered alike impossible. _ This is what they dread. This is what our Generals should aim at. We cannot admit a supposition so injurious to the commanders who have already so gloriously distin guished themselves, as to imagine that they will unnecessarily give breathing-time to the foe, or enable them in any degree to neutralise the beneficial results which the Western Powers may reasonably anticipate, from their great triumph. We repudiate, therefore, with scorn the unfounded insinuations alike of pro-Muscovites and timid politicians, and demand that the consequences of the victory shall be adequate to the sacrifices by which it has been achieved. We are no longer, fortunately, bound by " the Four Points." Aus tria has no longer a right to hamper us by its sinister interference. The selfish and contemptible Policy of Germanism has freed us from a terrible incubus. We may, by the permanent occupation of the Crimea, or its transference to friendly hands, obtain the most suitable guarantees against the restoration of the naval predominance of Russia in the Euxine ; and also insist that, in strict ac cordance with the dictates of equity and expediency, is well as of the precedent established by Russia itself, an ample indemnity be given for the ex penses occasioned by its wicked and wanton ag gression to all those who have resisted its attack, viz., to France and England—to Turkey and Sardinia ! Without such an indemnity, we Gan sot obtain a permanent and honourable peace ; and if we are only firm, it will unquestionably be )btain ed. It has pleased " a few gentlemen" to republish ,n a form intended to enlighten the million, or at least the ten-pound householders, the wisdom of trl GREY. They add as a quasi, reason for this itep that the statements contained in this very on; speech, delivered in the House of Lords on he 25th of last May, have never been contro ierted ! We cannot undertake to re-peruse all the better journals of the day or tho week, but )ur recollection is quite different to that of these eNs , gentlemen. They were doubtless so in love with the " statement," that they supposed all journalists called upon to follow sentenc3 by sen ence a speech which, in their own closely-printed :)amphlet, occupies some forty octavo pages. The mportant points in this long oration may now be Jasily disposed of in a leader or two, of the length which readers care to peruse. Perhaps our readers will scarcely believe, hay ng probably forgotten the speech, that its object s to prove that Ministers ought to have continued he Vienna Conferences on the basis of the Rus sian suggestion which . Austria pressed, and on vhich M. DROUYN DE L'HuYs retired from office, rand Lord JOHN RUSSELL was forced from it. lie Russian proposal for putting an end to her m - eponderance in the Black Sea was the notable " that the SULTAN should be at liberty to Ldmit the ships of war of allies to these waters .vhenever lie considered himself menaced by Russia, and not as previously to wait for a de 31aration of war." Earl GREY contends that the lifference between this scheme and the limitation Ale of the Allied Governments was not sufficient to demand a continuation of the War. In this many will be prepared to go with him. We have never written of the limitation scheme as worth a twelvemonth's fighting, nor even worth '.he parchment for a treaty, and we concur in wary word in which Lard GREY points out how 'asily and in how many 'Ways it could be evaded. But here lies the whole strength of this part of :Earl GREY'S speech. It is a Redan fort, such as ve have heard so much of. All its arguments mint but one way; they are irresistible against he Ministry in the front of the conflict, but it ►as no arguments against the views with which be nation has insisted on anefficient war. The few gentlemen" who reprint the speech appeal o " the intelligent and reflecting ;" but persons if this character cannot need to reconsider ,vhether either the limitation or the Russian theme were reasonable objects of a war, and if lot, neither can be a satisfactory basis of peace. Lord GREY lays stress upon this War having oeen at its commencement of a strictly defensive ;haracter. No doubt the Allies did, as we think nost absurdl7, put forward that view, and very orominently. Absurdly, we think, because, as he event has proved, it is impossible to draw the ine between defensive and offensive war. Our int dealings with a burglar, or murderer, are, of ourse, strictly defensive, but in the result a )rison or a gallows are included in the list of rarely defensive measures ; the Allies, in like nanner, soon found that they must at least de n.ive the aggressor of the means of future aggression. In one short sentence, indeed, to this effect, T4ord GREY certainly opens the way for all that Are may see fit to demand. He admits the pro )riety of one demand of the Allies at Vienna, ,vhich Russia conceded, because "it tended uaterially to diminish the danger of future wars." Lord GREY means, no doubt, the danger of their )ccurrence. But once allow this as a guiding ulnciple, and iu the judgment of all the freedom loving portion of Europe, the crippling of Russia's military strength, and the restoration to their lawful owners of the nations she has enslaved, are essential to preventing the near probability of future war. Lord GREY, indeed, asserts some cThere, that a peace could not last which took from Russia what her people had • been accus tomed to regard as a part of Russia. But we beg to remind him that, from Circassia all round th e Black Sea to the Danube, the nations have sot forgotten that they are under the hoof of Russia by fraud even more than by conquest,- and that, notwithstanding the fiendish barbarities, of Lord GREY'S amiable NICHOLAS in P o l an d , t h e Poles retain vividly their national feelings, and long for deliverance from a yoke not less infernal than that of Austria. We see, indeed, that the Times argues that the horrid cruelties of Russia have made Poland into Russia. Cruelty never yet changed a nationality. It did net amain inate Ireland with England, nor has it Poland with Russia. The flight of Polish peasants into Prussia to avoid enlistment is proof of that. But for the police of the "Eeangqic al and clever" despot of Berlin, thousands of Poles would have found a refuge in his territories. It were almost endless to cite illustrations of the unfair reasoning into which Lord GREY is betrayed while professing so much calmness. For instance, he mentions that " the differences which led to this unhappy War began with threats of the employment of a French fleet to coerce Turkey into concessions which could not be justly required of her"—but he overlooks that they could be required of Turkey quite as justly, that is on the ground of old treaties, as what NiouoLls and his bully MENSCHIKOFF demanded of her. And :;till worse, he overlooks the grand contrast that the French EMPEROR withdrew his claims rather than provoke a War, while NICHOLAS pushed his demand for a fresh and mischievous treaty with an independent Molaaatea by invasion and profuse bloodshed. • Lord GM; however, even atterapt4 to argue (page 20), that Russia was in the right not to be satisfied when the original claim of France was withdrawn, in a manner which ho owns to be en titled to great praise ; the EMPEROR of Russia "had a claim for reparation for the flagrant offence he had received, in a form to give security for the future against the repetition of any similar offence !" Yet this is the very Lord GREY who 'thinks that the defensive objects of the War were attained when Russia was driven first over the Danube, then over the Pruth into her own terri tories. Surely, to repeat his own words, the Allies were entitled to ask for reparation for the flagrant offence of invading a neighbour's territoiy, and of trying to force a treaty in time of peace from an independent Power which had entire right to refuse it ; and, for reparation, too, in a form to give security for the future against the repetition of any similar offence. All Europe, Lord GREY and his " few gentlemen" excepted, consider that security to be, first, Sebastopol and the Crimea ; then, Ismail and Bessarabia ; next, Poland ; and, lastly, Finland. Lord GREY con descends also to praise the GORTSCHAKOWS cant about "the blood of Russia, belonging to Russia alone, and being expended only for Russian objects." Was it, then, a Russian object to trample down Hungary for Austria, to say nothing of murdering Polish liberty? If so, we deliberately say—would that every ounce of Russian blood were spilt be fore it could be spilt for such atrocities again ! France is not without her BAYARD even at the present day, when the spirit of chivalry has so many opposing influences to contend against. She numbers among her brave defenders a CAI ROBERT ! and proud as she is, and may well be, of the conquerors of Sebastopol PELISSTER, BOSQUET, and AIWAHON, none of them is likelier to be embalmed in after times in the national heart. Say that his command-inchief before Sebasto pol was a comparative failure, and that though a first-class general of division, and a thorough soldier, he proved unequal to the task of illus trating the high military genius of France, the honour is still his of having done his best for his country, and of having succeeded—better perhaps than any other Frenchman, save his Imperial master—in cementing the alliance between Eng land and France, by his frank courtesy and con stant solicitude for the welfare of all about him ; while the higher renown is his also of illustrating, in his own career, that fine, chivalrous, self-sacri ficing spirit which throws such a sacred halo over the annals of France. Sentiment in matters of stern actual business is regarded nowadays with suspicion, and is apt to be set down as affectation, but it is impossible for the most hard-headed anti-sentimentalist to deny this illustrious general the merit of sincerity. His modest resignation of the chief command, accompanied by his nomi nation of a successor among his subordinates— his request., though entitled by his services and impelled by his wound to repose, to be entrusted with a division—his persistence in refusing anything higher than such a command, or to return home—his daring valour in the as sault, and his. prompt return when circumstances seemed to indicate its propriety—all these things were but in harmony with his daily life. They have not surprised the soldiers of his own nation, who loved him, the Allied armies, who admired him—any one, in short, who knew him. And now that, with a noble simplicity, a generous humility that is positively affecting, he declines the baton of a field-marshal, lest his acceptance of it should dim the lustre of PELISMER'S, the voice of universal opinion pronounces him to have, uncon sciously it may be, achieved a higher honour, and to have illuminated an antique page with a modern blazon inferior in spotless brilliance to none that have preceded it—to have reflected glory on France, and especially her Imperial head—than whom none better appreciates desert. Honour, then, to the Bayard of the nineteenth century. There is not an Englishman worthy of the name but will say so. Honour to General CANROBERT. COURT CIRCULAR. BALMORXL, SEPT. 14.

MESSAGES OF THE EMPEROR NAPO LEON TO THE FRENCH AND ENGLISH ARMIES. PARIS, MONDAY MORNING. Immediately after receiving the intelligence of the fall of Sebastopol, the Emperor charged the Minister of War to transmit the following despatch to General Pelisaier " Honour to you ! Honour to our brave army. Congratulate all in my name." His Imperial Majesty also directed the Minister to send the following to General Pelissier : " The Emperor charges you to congratulate the English army, in his name, on the constant valour and the moral force which it has displayed during this long and trying campaign." ST. PETERSBURG, SEPT. 15. A despatch from General Prince Gortschakoff, dated on the evening of the 11th, says : We blew up a great part of the fortifications of southern Sebastopol. The enemy begins to appear in groups, not very numerous, amidst the ruins of the city. We have transported to the north part of the place all the wounded who remained on the south ern side after the assault of the Bth. The Allies left in our hands, as prisoners, one superior officer, 17 subalterns, and 160 soldiers. MARSEILLES, SEPT. 16. The Loucisor, which left Constantinople on the 6th inst., has arrived. She brings advices from the Crimea to the 4th. General Pelissier is fortifying the Traktir Bridge, and strengthening the defences on the Mackenzie road. The Allied cavalry occupy Kamara. The Russians are said to have received rein forcements to the amount of 25,000 men of the " army of reserve." Sebastopol is suffering dreadfully ; the masked batteries are ready to open a mortar-fire. The Russians are busy on the North side in fortifying and throwing up works. The Turkish Government has resolved on estab lishing lighthouses on all its coasts. The fleet of gun-boats at Rustchuk is armed and ready to act on the Danubian defences of Russia. Advices from Kars of the 18th August state that supplies have arrived for the garrison ; some convoys, however, have been intercepted by the enemy. The Pasha of Egypt, accompanied by the French Consul, left Alexandria on the 9th of September, on board a war steamer, for Mar seilles, en route to Paria and London. VIENNA, SEPT. 14. The statement is confirmed that the Emperor of Russia is about to go to Warsaw. Prince Gortschakoff, Minister of Russia here, will quit this city on the 20th inst., to pay his respects to his Sovereign. BERLIN, SUNDAY. It is said that the Emperor of Russia notified the fall of Sebastopol to the King of Prussia by a private telegraphic despatch. The Emperor stated that he was still firmly re solved on accepting no conditions of peace that could be considered derogatory to Russia as a great power. MADRID, SEPT. 15. The intelligence of the victory of the Allies was received here with enthusiasm. The French Ambassador, M. de Turgot, has given orders for a Te Deun to he performed, on the 16th, at the French church, in honour of the fall of Sebastopol. Marshal Espartero goes to-day to the Escurial. The Gaceta asserts that the Caisse des Depots will meet all its obligations. HAMBURG, SEPT. 15. The First Danish Chamber has definitively adopted by a majcrity of 38 to 10 the changes proposed in the Constitution of 1849. THE OVERLAND MAIL. The following telegraphic despatch has been received from Trieste : TRIESTE, SATURDAY, SEPT. 15. The steamer Bombay arrived here to-day at 3 15 p.m., in 135 hours from Alexandria. The Indian mails left Alexandria on the 9th September, with advices from Calcutta of the 9th of August; Bombay, 13th of August; Hong Kong (via Calcutta), 18th of July. The insurrection of the Santals had assumed importance, and still continued. Six thousand troops have been already sent against the rebels. A party of Rohillas had crossed the frontier, and was committing depredations in the Bombay presidency. Rain has been scarce in India, and trade con sequently dull. The money market was easy. Exchange at Calcutta, 4s. 811 Opium had risen in China. We have also received the following : MARSEILLES, SEPT. 16, 8 A.M. The Valetta arrived here this morning at six o'clock with the Indian mail. FRANCE. • PARIS, SUNDAY EVENING. We have received the illoititeur of yesterday,. It publishes the following, dated Baden, Sept. 14 : " The effect produced at Baden by the news of the capture of Sebastopol was immense, and the more com plete as the partisans of Russia had commenced denying the fall of the Malakhoff. The whole of that numerous, brilliant, cosmopolite society was a prey to an emotion and curiosity which doubts, clumsily set on foot the day before, only served to increase still more. The telegra phic despatches whi c h a b oun d for the last three days speak loudly of the greatness of the disaster which has befallen the Russian army and of tho heroism of the allied troops for any incredulity to exist any longer. "I am able to send you, as beaTing .a certain degree of authenticity, the following extract from a Russian correspondence relative to the Battle of the Tchernaya : " in the Affair o" August 16. " The Commander of the 3d Corps d'Armise, General ' of Cavalry Read. " General Werwsky, who brought from St. Peters ' burg the order to take the offensive, and who was pre sent in the action as a volunteer without a command. " General of Brigade Bellegarde. "General We ware, chief of the staff of the BclQorp3 d'Arroec, a young general, much esteemed and greatly regretted. " Moreover, five generals wounded, and many supe rior and subaltern officers killed on the field of battle. " The total loss of the Russians must have been about 7,000 men.' " The Afoniteur gives a telegraphic despatch from Vice-Admiral Bruat, containing the names of the officers of the French navy killed ashore, in the batteries, during the concluding days of the siege of Sebastopol. They are : —M, Gouhot, Captain of Marine Artillery; M. De Girard, Lieutenant in the Navy ; M. Roy, Second Lieutenant of Marine Ar tillery. M. De Dompierre d'Hornoy, Captain of Marine Artillery, who was dangerously wounded, has since died of his wounds. The Algiers journals of the 10th have reached us. The only fact of any interest that they contain is the arrival in that port of the steam-frigate Asmoclee from Toulon, with troops. A letter from the Pincus announces that Capt. Magnan, in the small Rhone steamer, the Cygne, arrived is that port on the sth. The vessel ext countered contrary winds and a rough sea, but though only a small river boat she was perfectly navigable. Capt. Magnau was to leave on the 6th for Constantinople, and it was his intention instead of passing through the Archipelago to cross the straits between the isle of Negrepont and the continent. This would be the first time that that passage had ever been attempted by a steamer. BOURSE, SEPT. 17.—CLOSING PRICES» Cash. fr. c.

The same accounts say also that a large park of artillery is to be formed at Warsaw, which is also probably destined for the Crimea. The fortifications of Kiew are being actively carried on, and will soon be terminated." ,THE DANUBE. A private letter from Silistria, in the Prussian Correspondence, states that the Turks are actively employed in repairing the fortifications of that place and those of Rustchuk, expecting 4, as they do, an offensive movement on the part of Russia. The streets and squares of the fortress and the banks of the Danube ,are still covered with balls and shells of last year's siege. There are about 40,000 Turkish troops at Silistria and 10,000 at Rustchuk. SPAIN. The Madrid journals of the 10th have arrived, but all their contents of any interest were men tioned in the letter of that date received yesterday. A letter of the 11th, says : " One of the papers announces that the Queen is in an interesting situation,' but the government has received no official notification of the fact. The laying of the first stone of the buildings connected with the agricultural school, the establishment of which was recently decreed, is to take place on the 19th November, the anniversary of the Queen's birthday, and it is to be built on land be longing to her Majesty at Aranjuez. The united bands of Tristany, Casa Serra, and Altimeran, 152 strong, were attacked a few days ago by the Queen's troops at San Felice de la Sierra, and were dispersed with a loss of seven killed and one prisoner. On the other hand the Carlist chief Borges entered, four days back, the town of Sonahaja, carried off the arms of the national guard, and killed its commander. There is reason to believe that in one of the first sittings of the Cortes, the Ministry will propose an alliance with France and England, and will make the adoption of the proposition a Cabinet question." The Prussian Correspondence contains a letter from Galatz of the 29th ult., which states that the new French consul at that place, Count de Bros sard, has entered on his duties. During the Rus sian occupation French interests were not repre sented in the principalities. At Galatz, where there are but few French subjects, Viscount de Lemant has been provisionally acting as represen tative of France during the last few months. A letter from Vienna, of the 11th, in Voss's Gw.:ette, of Berlin, says :—" We are assured that France and England are disposed to accept the propositions made by .Austria and Bavaria as re gards the affairs of Greece. These propositions are to the effect that the troops of occupation shall be diminished one-half, the remainder being sufficient to maintain tranquillity, and that all measures calculated to prejudice the King's sove reignty shall be avoided."

Ezra Nye, arriyed in the Mersey this afternoon, after a rapid run from New York of nine days 23 hours, having left that port at noon on the sth instant. The Pacific brought 130 passengers and $370,550 in specie on freight. The steam-ship Tennessee, which left Havre on the 19th of August for New York, put into Hali fax on the 4th inst. short of coals. The news per the Pacific is four days later from New York than by the North Star. The New York _Herald states, upon the autho rity of a correspondent in Madrid, that a private treaty has been made by France, England, and Spain, with the Dominican Government, in which the latter, for a certain consideration, has pledged itself to the following conditions, viz. : " No settlers from the United States, of any class or colour, shall be encouraged to hold lands or take up their residence in St. Domingo. " lii o land for mining purposes, factories, or coal depots shall be sold, leased, or ceded, either to private companies or to the American Government, without the prior consent of the French and British Governments." "Now," adds this respectable journal, "let us exa mine the meaning of these conditions. The island of St. Domingo covers the free passage of our trade by the Caribbean Sea and the Isthmus of Darien, as Cuba covers the Gulf of Mexico and the use of the Tehuant pec tran sit. It is a cardinal object with England and France to keep to themselves the command of those great gates of communication between the various sections of the American Union, and to prevent us from controlling the West India market. This explains the promptitude with c . % hich those powers sent their order to St. Do- Mingo to cancel the treaty with the United States, and which they effected without the least remonstrai,ce from our Cabinet. The tame acquiescence of our government in this outrage encouraged them to follow up their advan tage byatriple treaty with Spain for the general protection of negro and European interests i❑ the Antilles. This compact with the Dominican Republic takes away from the United States the only chance open to them for a commercial foothold therein, and the allies may now take their own time to hand over Cuba and Porto Rico to Sambo and Satan—the rest of the West Indies is theirs already." A despatch from Albany, dated Sept. 4, says-- "At the general term of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, held at the Capitol, in full bench, Thomas Francis Meagher was, by a special order, ad mitted an attorney and counsellor to practise in all the courts of the State. The court, by the Hon. Chief JuEtice Parker, in granting the order, made some highly complimentary remarks on Mr. Meagher, and stated the pleasure with which the court recognised his talents and character by this special mark of its consideration." The last accounts from Norfolk state that, so far from any abatement of the yellow fever having taken place, it was worse than ever, and the panic among the inhabitants was increasing. The mor tality at Portsmouth is also represented as fearful. The number of deaths in New Orleans during the week was 471, including 357 from yellow fever. This is a considerable decrease and mostly oc curred during the latter part of the week. The steamer Hetzel, of the coast survey, burst her boiler near the Capes of the Chesapeake. It happened on the 24th ult. Four persons were killed. Madame Rachel had performed in Now York, and made a great impression. She appeared - on the .3d of September as Camille in Les' Boraces, and on the 4th as Phedre, to crowded audiences, at the Metropolitan Theatre. Advices from Havannah are to the 28th ult. Six persons had been summoned by the public attorney on, a charge of having conspired to murder and accomplish the assassination of Castanedo. They did not obey. The feast of Guanabacio had been duly observed, and several murders and attempts to kill had occurred during the religious excite ment. The newly-arrived troops from Spain had suffered from severe diarrhoea, and a few cases of yellow fever had appeared. The bank scheme could not be moved on. The wharfage improve ments at the landing place are described as very , fine. Santa Anna and family arrived at Havan nah on the 24th from Vera Cruz, and left on the 26th for Caraccas. Mexican accounts to the 22d ult. state that the flight of Santa Anna, the.revolution at the-capital,. the adoption of the plan of Ayutla, and the esta blishment of a pxovizional govecament, with Gene. ral Carrera at its head, was confirmed. Santa Anna attempted to escape in the Mexian war ves sel Iturbide, but being frtistrated in his object em barked on board another vessel. A Rio Bravo correspondent of the New York _Herald, dating at Reynosa, on the 19th of August, states that the forces of Santa Anna, under Colonel Cobos, had been defeated at Tula by the revelu tiomsts, under Colonel Sayas, on the 29th of July, with a loss of 300 men in killed, wounded, and missing. The Reynosa revolutionists were in full march to assist their brethren: At Zacatecas, Colonel Zeraga had 1,200 mounted riflemen en route to attack Colonel Pavon, and Sim Luis Potosi would soon pronounce. General Woll was fortify ing Matamoros for the party of the late dictator, but the town would be completely invested. The citizens were flying from it daily. Rio Janeiro correspondence, dated August 18, appears in the New York papers, being four days later than the Great Western. In consequence of finding no shippers to purchase at prices of the 14th ult., coffee fell 250 to 300 rees per arroba, which created quite a good feeling, and several sales were effected. The steamer Bay City, bought by the Amazon Steam Packet Company, would soon be ready to take her place in that river. She was.under the management of an American engi neer, and they expect to make 18 mil e s p er h our with her. M'Cla.in, the mate of the Bay City, is still in prison. It was understood that he was to be brought to trial for resisting the police, and on no other charge. THE BATTLE OF MOSKOWA. Under the first Empire there was a great battle fought between the French and Russians, which presents some analogy with the sanguinary com bats which bare led to the fall of Sebastopol. It was the battle of the Moskowa in the campaign of 1812, and which took place on the 7th of September, just 43 years and one day before the attack on the Malakhoff fortress. On both occasions the forces opposed to each other along the entire line were pretty nearly equal. Na poleon had 140,000 men, and the Russians num bered 160,000. At the Moskowa, as at Sebas topol, the attack was directed against formidable positions, behind which the Russian army had en trenched itself after a continuous retreat from Smo lensko, and which they had covered with a nume rous and formidable artillery. Then, as at the Ma lakhoff, the principal redoubt was taken by assault, and after a sanguinary combat, which decided the victory. The total loss of the French army on that day amounted to more than 23,000 hors de combat, among whom were nine Generals killed, and 39 wounded. Their names are as follows : Generals of Division Killed.—Montbrun, Cau laincourt. Generals of Brigade Killed.—Romeuf, Lanabert, Marion, Compere, Huard, Plauzonne, Damas. Generals of Di vision Wounded.—Morand, Friant, Dessaix, Compans, Scheler, Tharreau, Rapp, Belliard, Nansouty, Saint-Germain, Bruyere, Pajol, Defrance Grouchy, and Chastel. Generals of Brigade Wounded.—Gratien, Bon namisßoyer, Dupelin, Teste, Gengoult, Mourier, Almeras, Boyeldseu, uyon, Guilleminot, Krasin sky, Borstill, Quenot, Roussel, Subervie, Burthe, Dommanget, Chonard, Lacroix, Thery, Borde soulles, Leppel, and Bessieres. The Russians had 50,000 men hors, de combat, according to Colonel Boutourlin, and to Napoleon himself, who went over the field the next day. The following are extracts from the Itineraire de Empereur Napoleon pendant la Campagne en 1812, published by the Baron Dennire, Military Intendant, who made the campaign of Russia as Inspector in Chief, and attached to the Prince of Neufchatel, the Major-General of the Grand Army, and who was consequently in a position to be well informed : "On the 7th, the Emperor mounted on horseback be fore daybreak, and rode in front of the redoubt taken on the sth by the 57th Regiment. He was suffering se verely from a migraine. The cannonade did not open till 7 o'clock in the morning, in order to leave Prince Poniatowski time to execute his movement. The sky was covered with clouds, the wind was driving right into the enemy's face, and clouds of dust, mingled with smoke, darkened the horison. The Emperor remained an hour at the redoubt, and then descended towards a sort of ravine, where he passed the greatest part of the day. From this point he could only discover a por tion of the field of battle ; nevertheless, some shells and balls passed over his head. The enemy's line was covered by formidable positions, by redoubts and redans, which crossed their fire. Both sides were soon en gaged on every point. The Old and the Young Guard were drawn up in reserve in order of battle. Scarce had the 2d corps of reserve deployed on the plain than its commander, General Montbrun was kill , d. The Emperor at once sent General Auguste Caulaineourt to take the command. Come on ! ' cried Caulaincourt, ' let us avenge his death !' His own hour was fast a! - preaching. Some moments after it was announced to the Emperor that the Wince of Eckmuhl was severely wounded, and that his Chief of the Staff was killed. A few minutes after an officer gallopped up to say that the Prince was at the head of his troops—he only re plied,l' Gnd be praised ! ' No alteration nar disquietude hetrayed his inward feelings. The Emperor remained iuira tat.le, even when he was informed that the Poli,h corps had returned without being able to execute its movement. The defence made by the Russians, was most obstinate ; but it was at the centre that they opposed the greatest resistance ; that terrible redoubt was mowing dowh our ranks. It was taken, re-taken, and again disputed. Impatient to put an end to so much carnage, the Emperor gave the order to take possession of that gigantic battery, with its epaulements and ditches. To obey this order General Caulaineourt, judging that the infantry needed to be roused, disposed his troops, turned the battery, dashed along at the head of the sth Regiment of Cuirassiers, and fell mortally wounded at the moment he entered the defences. The infantry sup ported the movement. Rage was in every heart ; every regard was laid aside, everything forgotten except the necessity of wresting the victory from the hands of the enemy. The Russians defended them selves like lions ; the French fought like heroes ; while a storm of iron covered the plain. The batteries on the right annihilated the 3d and Bth corps, but the Ist corps soon won them. The cavalry executed brilliant charges, with Murat at their head. At that important hour of the day (it was then two o'clock) Nay sent word to the Emperor that the succour of the Guard would determine the rout of the enemy. The Emperor bad not quitted the position he oc3upied from the commencement of the battle. The trumpets of the cavalry sounded to horse. Those noble squadrons ad vanced slowly—the destiny of the world seemed to hang upon them, and respect, fear, and hope filled every heart. The cavalry suddenly halted, for the Emperor countermanded them. The Prince had just got into line with his Poles. All manoeuvring was then at an end, and masses were opposed to masses. Rage, des pair; and necessity impel the soldier—he had no alter. native but to conquer or die. "The night at last came on, and covered over so much horror, for fatigue alone stopped the carnage. The fires of the bivouacks were lighted up one by one, and the deep silence of midnight was only troubled by the groans of the wounded and the dying. Exhaustion brought on sleep, and the sleeper lay side by side with the dead. The awakening was cruel, for it was forced by hunger T' ere was no food, but the soldier did not murmur; the desire of vengeance was still at his heart. The day broke over a battle field covered over with 50,000 killed and wounded, 12,000 horses extended help less or dragging themselves along with difficulty, and 200 waggons, gun carriages, or guns dismounted. The statements T have prepared from those communicated to the Major-General by the chiefs of the staff of the dif ferent corps, and the exact amount of which the Prince of Neufchatel forbade me to reveal, were as knows :-48 general officers kilted or wounded (9 killed), 37 colonels (10 killed), 6,547 officers, sub-officers, and soldiers killed, 21,453 wounded. The originals of these statements, in my handwriting, are in the archives of the War-office. The loss of the Russians was 50,000 men. As to the enor mous consumption of powder the statement communi cated by Gen. Count Lariboisiere, First Inspector-General of the Artillery, show that 60,000 cannon shots werefired and 1,400,000 cartridges burned on that single day, the 7th of September. The battle lasted about 10 hours, which gave 100 cannon shots per minute, and 2,300 mus -11 ket shots—without speaking of the fire of the Ru'ssians." The Emperor of Russia has conferred the order of St. Ann of the Ist class on Major-General Kornsine, head of the reserve cavalry artillery, for distinguished ser vices, and especially for the manner in which he carried out the defence works at Odessa.—Journal de St. Petersbourg. EDINBURGH AND GLASGOW RAILWAY.—We under stand that the dividend to be declared at the approach ing meeting of this compaey will be at the rate of 2 per cent. —Scotsman. ENTERTAINMENT TO THE LOSD MAYOR OF LONDON AT CONGLETON.—Tho Lord Mayor of London, Sir. F. Moon, being on a visit to Mr. Thomas Johnson, of Bugalton, an old, friend of his lordship's, the good - and loyal people of Congleton seized upon the opportunity as a favourable one for the exercise of hospitality, and invited his lordship to an entertainment of cakes and sack at tho Town-hall, at 2 o'clock on Friday. Accordingly his lordship arrived at the Town-hall at th e appointed hour, and was introduced to the coun cil-room, when, in the absence of the Mayor from family affliction, Alderman Hogg presided. After an introductory speech from the chairman, Alderman Goode proposed, and Alderman Sutton seconded, the preeentation of an address to the Lora Mayor, which proposition being unanimously approved the address was read and suitably acknowledged by his lordship. The Corporation and guest then adjourned to the As sembly-room, where a handsome collation was prepared, consisting of the time-honoured cakes of Congleton, and dessert and wines of the very first quality. CLOSE OF THE HERRING FISHERY.—The herring fishery is now over for the season. On the Caithness coast it has been most successful. At Wick the take is much above the average. On the south aide and east coast the take is under an average ; but, on the whole, the catch exceeds that of any year for, the Tait ten yam ALIR,KET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. The leading country markets held o n Saturday were tolerably firm for wheat, at very full prices. Barley sold freely on higher terms. The oat trade ruled somewhat active. Beans, peas, and flour had an upward tendency. Most of the continental markets are firm, and most kinds of grain are producing enhanced rates. Accounts from New York state that flour and most other articles were steady. Up to our market last week the receipts of English grain were very moderate. From abroad we received 11,3 6 quarters of wheat, 573 barley, 10,521 oats, 45 rye, 1,3 50 beans, 1,366 peas, 25 tares, 3,538 linseed, 2,145 rapeseed, 328 sundry seeds, 3,309 sacks and 1,600 barrels of flour. The arrivals of new English wheat fresh up to our mar ket this morning, coastwise and by land cairiage, were considerably on the increase compared with Monday last ; but those of old wheats were trifling. The show of e former was in fair average condition, and the demand the for most kinds ruled steady, at prices fully equal to those of this day se'nnight. The few old wheats in the market sold freely, at fully is per quarter above the rates of this day se'nnight. The show of foreign wheat, fresh as well as ex.gran ar Y , was very moderate.
