THE PORTSMOUTH BANQUETS TO TILE C.RIMEANS. The first of these praiseworthy thank-offerings to the brave will take place at . Portsmouth on Tuesday next. There will he about 2,600 men dined on that day in a splendid pavilion erected by the committee especially for the purpose on the Governor's green ; these wilt consist of warrant and non-commissioned officers of the army and navy and Royal IVlarines, soldiers, seamen, and pri vates of Marines. There was great difficulty attending the question of president for this banquet to the troops, and, even could a Sergeant-Major Edwards have been found among them, the point could not have boon antic :o,ly settled, owing to the punctilio of seniority, warrant officers of the navy, fsr instance, being coreidcred senior officers to sergoant•majors in the army. It was, there fore, deemed most prudent to select a civilian to fill the important post, especially as the entertainments were civilian tributes to the valour of the united services, and the choice of the whole committee, with one exception, fell upon Dr. Wi-C. Engledue, of Southsea. Lord George Lennox and the whole of the committee will support toe president on. the first day, and his Lordship will take the chair on the second, when there will be five civilian vice chairmen, and about 260 officers as guests, the whole company being estimated at 600. Messrs. Bathe; Funge, and Palmer, of the London Tavern, supply both ban quets. Upwards of 150 officers have accepted the in vitations of, the committee, among whom are Sir F. Williams of Kars, Sir H. Jones, Sir R. Dacres, Colonel Lake, Lieut.-C Evelegh, and all the officers who served of the 20th Regiment ; Col. Graham, C. 8., and all the officers at bead-quarters, who served of the Ports mouth division of Royal Marines ; Lieut.-Col. Fraser, and all the officers at head-quarters who served of the Royal Marine Artillery ; Lieut.-Cols. Moore and Legh, and all the officers who served of the 97th Regiment. It is expected his Royal Highness the Commander-in- Chief will also honour his gallant brethren in arms by attending. Among the entertainers are the members for Portsmouth, Sir F. Baring and Viscount j%lonck ; the Naval Commander-in-Chief, the Military Governor, the county and borough magistracy, many members of the corporation, General Jones, R.M. ; Major. Generals Sir F. Smith, K.H. ; Everard, C.B. ; Mercer, Daly, Admiral Sir Lucius Curtis, C.B. ; Vice-Admiral Sir George Seymour, K.C.B. ; Vice-Admiral Douglas, Rear Admiral Martin, Rear-Admiral the Hon. 11. D. Byng, Colonel Eyre, R.A., Colonel Foster, R.E , Col. Harcourt, M.P., and the leading inhabitants of Ports mouth and the county of Hants.

We are solicited by the committee to request subscribers to the funds to for ward their contributions immediately, and all officers who have not replied to the invitations to do so with out delay, in order that the arrangements for their ac commodation and entertainment may be completed. The kindness of the authorities at Portsmouth to the committee of management has been unbounded. The Lieutenant-Governor (Major-General Breton) has given up his picturesque field for the site of the festivities ; Rear-Admiral Superintendent Martin has granted the loan of all the materials requisite for the construction of the pavilion ; Colonel Eyre has granted artificers to help to erect it ; Colonel Foster, R.A., has also lent artificers of the Sappers and Miners ; Alderman Nance has given all the cartage free.

THE UNITY GENERAL ASSOCIATION. A trick was played off here yesterday morning on the shareholders by the directors, the first specimen of whose independent management f the affairs of the associ ation showed itself in a notification by the solicitor that the poll they had themselves demanded could not legally be taken ; that the meeting they bad summoned was not legally held ; that the resolution they bad supported could not be resolved at ad, for all the acts done by the meeting were illegal, as not being presided over by the chairman of the company, and not having reference only to the decision of the question on which they were sum moned. • When, therefore. the shareholders went to bal lot in the morning at the office they found themselves confronted by the following notice : "TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE UNITY GENERAL ASSOCIATION. "Ladies and Gentiernen,—l have to inform you that no ballot wiil take place today on the resolutions sub mitted to the extraordinary meeting held yesterday, as my opinion is, that from the first illegal act of the meet• ing in a ppointing a second chairman, contrary to the deed of settlement, and entering on business wholly irrelevant to the object for which alone the meeting was called, has rendered the proceedings null and void. "Mr. Baylis's solicitor concurs with me in the opinion that no ballot can take place, and has given me notice that Mr. Baylis will not-take any part in it. " Any further proceeding is, therefore, futile.—l am, ladies an gentlemen, yor r obedient servant, "THOS. MoortE, Solicit. 4 for the Association. " 3, Cannorestreet, Sept. 12."

The great event of Monday, Sept• 1,, was a re view of all the Guard and of some regiments of the Corps of Grenadiers by the Emperor, which cer tainly was a grand military spectacle. The Pavlovsky, or the Regiment of Paul, pre sented an appearance which would be grotesque if it were not imposing. All the mon—pray do not laugh—have cocked noses. Every soldier with a nez retroussee, who is of the proper height, is sent to this regiment, which was formed by Paul in one of his eccentric freaks, and a very 'determined pug is eligible if it be accompanied by sunken eyes and high cheek bones. But more than this—the men, clean shaven, like all Russian soldiers, except on the lip, wear their moustaches brushed upwards towards their ears, which gives them a strange and savage aspect. .This bizarre and ferocious appear ance is increased by the shape of their head•dress, which is like a sugar-loaf with one side cut away —an angular section' of a cone, with the round side to the front. On this side the shako, or whatever it is, consists of a brass plate ; at the back it is of bright red cloth. From the top there is a, curious tuft, or pompon, sticking out horizont ally, so, as to be parallel with the lower part of the wearer's nose. The brass front is religiously pre served should ,it have been pierced by a ball, and is worn only by des'erving soldiers. Some of them have been perforated in two, three. or four places in the.daya of C i atherine 11. and in Suwaroff's cam paign, where the regiment greatly distinguished itself, and on the under part of each pate is en • graved the name of -the soldier who wore it when the ball of the eqemy came in such unpleasant proximity to him. Should one of these plates be worn out with age its form is scrupulously imi tated, and the holes renewed ..with the greatest care. The regiment when at the march past al ways carries bayonets at the charge. Although the look of tries() four thousand and odd men, all o whom are over six feet, is very novel and striking, and if they are half as ugly in the fight as they are on parade they must prove most formidable anta gonists. They are dressed like the other regiments of the Guard, with the exception of the helmet. The Marines of the Guard were much admired, but the greatest amount of interest was excited by the bait slims of the Militia of the Imperial family, which are raised entirely from the serfs on the Romanoff estates. They are all sharpshooters, and are armed with excellent rifles. Their dress con sists of a dark green frock, cut in the old Russian fashion, loose trouser-, and boots coming up to the knees, into which the trousers are tucked. Wonderful s ories are told of the skill of some of these men in the use of their arms', and of their excellent shooting, which is accounted for by the circumstance of their being generally from districts where - the pursuits of the chase are still common, and where animals of fine fur are sought for by the hunter. The Finland Regiment, which lost very heavily from sickness while it was quar tered in Poland, has now recovered its strength, and the men, shorter but more squarely built than the Russians, exhibit a marked difference in face and expression from their conquerors; they are ruddy and bright-eyed, and look very cheerful and contented. Their officers are Finns, and the words of command are given in the Swedish tongue. The stream of men which poured past was so con tinuous and so dense that one might think all the armies of the world were present. After the guard came the splendid regiments of the corps of grena diers. It should be mentioned thatamong the finest battalions of • the former are the newly-organised Classeur.s, armed with a new rifle, and the Sapours, who are a well equipped, useful-looking body. The march past of the guard lasted one hour and seven minutes—that of the regiments of the Gre nadier Corps occupied nearly half au hour. Each corps was followed by its field batteries, all brass guns, mounted on the well-known green carriages. Each battery consists of eight guns, all of the same calibre, namely, oue of 121 b. or 14tb., as far as one could guess. It is intended to use only one kind of gun for cavalry and infantry, for the Russiana are of opinion that the light field guns have been rendered useless by the use of the long-range rifles, and they are adopting the system of artillery intro duced by the Emperor Napoleon into the French army. Would that our authorities would open their eyes to this question, and institute some ex periments in continuation of those begun in the Crimea. The horses were splendid, and surprised those Englishmen present who thought that no good quadrupeds of the kind could be seen out of England. The heavy roll of 12 batteries, with all their pomp of spare horses, caissons, Ste., and the march of the artillerymen, did not cease till 30 minutes had elapsed, and then, blazing with gold and silver, the Chevalier Guard of the Emperor came up at the bead of the 12 regiments of cavalry of the Imperial Guard and of the line. It is impossible to exaggerate the beauty and condition of some of those regiments, and more particularly one was struck with the appearance of the horses and men of the Hussar Regiment of Grodno. The Gerdes Cheval, the Grenadiers of the Guard, the mounted Sappers and Ponton niers, the Cuirassiers, the Lancers, the Hussars, and the Oossacks came in for their share of praise, and puzzled one to decide which was the most im posing and effective-looking. All the horses were turned out in marching order, with a bag of oats at the saddle, and every third man carried behind him a small copper stable bucket, which fitted to the end of the roll of his great coat or blanket. The Cavalry went past in a front of 65 file. After they had saluted, each squadron wheeled round to the left, and drew up in line, extending more than a 'mile on the ground on the proper right of the plain ; and now the very finest spectacle one ever saw was presented in a manner as grand as it was startling. When the squadrons had dressed into a splendid line, a certain number of the officers slowly rode out in front, and came towards ail line of spectators, till they were withiii about 50 paces, when they halted, and took up points in a line parallel to that of the Cavalry, who were distant from them about 650 yards. Then at a given signal the whole of this tremendous body of Cavalry, uttering loud cheers, and flourishing sabres or couching lances, burst into a gallop, and charged full speed towards the people and the Emperor's cortege. The effect was over whelming ; the earth seemed to shake under the tramp of 15,000 war horses--stheir force seemed sufficient to annihilate whole armies—they swept over the ground like some prodigious wave or a roller of the great Atlantic—in a second they were close at hand, and it seemed as if nothing mortal could check that glittering flood. The women shrieked and fled, and some of the ruder sex turned tail and sought refuge in the rear of the lines. The alarm was groundless. The horses were well in band, notwithstanding the great speed at which they advanced, and on arriving at the line of offi cers the billow of Centaurs was arrested as if by magic, and the front suddenly halted in wonderful order amid the tremendous cheering of the people. Such are the sights which Russia exhibits to Ger man potentates and their followers, and such are the displays which have led Europe to fear her as irresistible and unassailable. The recollection of this Tory charge might perplex a statesman or dis turb the councils of a cabinet. The review was now over, and the Emperor proceeded towards Petrovsky, surrounded on all sides by thousands of his subjects, the warmth of whose loyalty and attachment was most evident and heartfelt. The poorest mujik was permitted to come quite close to the person of him who represented in his eyqs the incarnate Deity, nor did the Gendar merie trample the crowd in the dirt or interfere in the slightest way, except to keep order among the droskies. As the troops marched past, they filed off towards their respective quarters, heartily glad to get away from the, choking dust and cold wind which they had endured for six hours. The corps of cadets, indeed, had marched over as early as 7 o'clock from a distance of several miles, but the Emperor was considerate enough to prepare re freshment for them at the Petrovsky Palace. The troops paraded on this occasion consisted of 16 squadrons of cuirassiers, 36 squadrons of light cavalry, and 22 squadrons of Cossacks, 12 squadrons of Pioneers a Cheval, and 1 squadron of his Ma jesty's escort. The infantry consisted of four com plete divisions of the Guard. Each division is com posed of four regiments, and each regiment contains four battalions. There were therefore 64 battalions, or about 50,000 men, of the Guard ; to these must be added 20 battalions of rifles, one battalion of sappers, and ono battalion of Marine Infantry o f the Guard, in all 90 battalions of infantry. Each of these divisions brought its batteries into the field, so that there were at least 116 guns on the ground-L-some say there were 140 pieces paraded, but I only counted the number stated above. The aspect of the field may be imagined when it is re collected that there were more men present than there were on both sides together at the battle of Alrna, and considerably more than there were of ish, French, and ssians at Inkerman. There were, I think, only three or uniforms of the regular army visible, those of Colonel Maude, R.A., an old quaintance, of Colonel lardinge, ant General Watkins ; but the militia an, were fully represented, and there were 13 gentlemenin the Emperor's suite who displayeK their blue or red and silver to the admiring mujika. The Earl Granville, Sir R. Peel, the Marquis of Aylesbury, Lord Seymour, the Marquis of Stafford, the Earl of Lincoln, Lord Dalkeith, Sir John Acton, the Hon. 11r.Courtenay, Mr. Nugent Bankes, Mr. Brackenbury, and other Englishmen who have been prepented to the Emperor„,attended by invitation from his Majesty, and were mounted on his horses, in order ,that they might follow in his suite, and every country in Europe and many' out of it contributed their share of uniforms and representatives on the occasion of this magnificent review. The Grand Duke Constantine held his court this evening at the Palace of the Governor at 8 o'clock, and those strangers who had been presented to the Emperor had the honour of being introduced to his Imperial Highness, He speaks English re markably well, and lie put several questions to our countrymen respecting their uniforms and other matters, which showed that he was acquainted with the external appearance, at all events, of the British army. Tho American Minister and suite and-Colonel Colt were presented to the Grand Duke in full uniform, cocked hat, plume of yellow cocks' feathery, blue coat, large gold epaulette, gold lace striped trousers, sword, &e. " Well," said the Colonel, "you aro the most democratic Grand Duke I ever met !" " How is that, Colonel ?" asked the Grand Duke. " Why you shook hands with me, and you are the first Grand Duke that has done that yet, ',was the reply. His Imperial High ness smiled, and did not sesm to know how to take the remark. Almost in opposition to the Grand Duke's levee, the Italian Opera gave its first re presentation, and the new house—the most beauti ful, if not the most spacious in the world—wai opened to a very b r illi an t com pany. - Let Mr..4ye, or whoever is going to build---a new-opera-house, dome over here to see this salle before hegivea final order to his architect. It is such a handsome and commodious house that it de - serves and shall have a separate description. The opera was I Puritctni, and Madame Bosio, who is a great favourite in Russia, gained a now success, and was repeatedly called for at the end of the scene. Notwithstand ing the Grand Duke's levee and the Earl of Gran ville's reception the house was full, but many per sons were obliged to leave in the course of the evening.

When every exertion to gain permission for their return to their homes had failed they were shipped on board the transport Tudor for Liverpool sa mate for America. Some bad left wives and families behind them, and they left Malta with sorrowful hearts. While the vessel was off the coast of Sicily, an officer named Anghera, who had latterly shown symptoms of unsound mind, endeavoured to induce the men to run the ship on shore, in some wild hope , : of exciting an out break and eventually returning to Italy. The attempt proved a failure, the men wisely preferring to try their fortune in America. The officer was confined, r.nd an examination will take place into all the circumstances before the men sai► for the New World. The Argentine Government, having an immense extent of fertile laud on the banks of the Parana, are desirous to induce these , men to settle in that country as cultivators of the soil. The climate is similar to that of Italy. The land pro. duces abundant crops of wheat, Indian corn, tobacco, and rice. The orange, peach, walnut, and mulberry grow luxuriantly. In order to insure success, the Argentine Government offer them agricultural implements, seeds, cattle, and 12,000 acres of arable land, besides a league and a half square of pasturage for their stock. Oa the men arriving, in England these terms will be laid before them by the agent of the Confederation. Meanwhile, till shipping can be provided to convey them to their desti nation, they will be placed in small barracks within a short distance of Liverpool, and in a few days will be finally paid off and set sail for their new homes in the New World. the batilitArSi AP "E four e atuo Cri iaoltl Ld of . 4 ,74 nd yeo a !e some some FEARFUL MURDER ON BOARD SHIP. CALLAO, July 12.—The American ship Elvira, Crosby, from Havre, has arrived here. While at Havre, Captain Crosby, with the consent of Captain Trask, of the ship Saratoga, shipped as his first officer Mr. Smith, at that time mate of the Saratoga. The Elvira sailed for this port, having on board a mixed crew of Italians, French men, Sardinians, &c., about as desperate a looking col lection of villains as is ever seen. On the 18th night from Havre the ship was running through the trades with beautiful weather, and royal etuddingsails set on both sides. At 12 o'etock (midnight) the mate's watch came on deck, and with the exception of one to relieve the wheel and one for the look out, each selected some good hiding place, and spread himself for a nap. At two bells (1 o'clock) one of the men (and the only wit ness to the horrible transaction which followed) was aroused from his sleep by the sound of the bell. He re mained lying on deck until three bells struck aft. This was not answered forward by the look-out immediately, and the mate left his position on the quarterdeck, and started forward, with the probable intention of ascertain ing whether or not the look-out was asleep. As he walked up the ladder of the topgallant forecastle, this witness ' saw three of the crew follow him, and the fourth—the look-out—walk towards him as he mounted the forecas tie. The four got him down, and three of them stabbed him with French dirks, and the fourth struck him three times on the skull with a heavy iron belaying pin, weigh. ing 151hs. The three men with dirks went off the fore castle, and the fourth dragged the dead body of their victim forward and threw him on the rail between the cat head and heel of the bowsprit. He then gave him two heavy blows with the belaying pin, which were distinctly heard by the witness, and, lifting him by the leg, threw the body into the sea. The whole affair occupied but a moment. When the poor fellow was stabbed he gave three shrieks, which •awake the • steward, who aroused the captain, who came on deck in time to see them throw their weapons into the sea. Their guilty looks accusing them, they were at once put into irons, when the witnel related to the captain the circumstances of this horrible murder. The men were kept in double irons until the arrival of the ship at this port, when they were taken from the ship and placed in prison by the American Co nsul, to await the arrival of a ship of war, by which they may be sent to the United States. The depositions of the captain and etew were taken, from which no reason or excuse for this cold-bio,ded affair can be deduced. The only evidence in favour Of the prisoners is that of some of the men, that the mate had been rather severe towards one of the prisoners. The four murderers from the Elvira substqeently escaped from prison, and are cow at large, no efforts being made for their recapture. RAILWAYS IN itU&SIA. The Russian Government have determined on granting concessions for the following lines of railway :—A line from Moscow to Nishni ; a line from Moscow to Theo dosia, on the Black Sea; a line from Moscow to Lay. boo, and a lino from Petersburg to Warsaw, with branches from Petersburg to jc,in the Prussian lines. With regard to several short internal hnes, which are a sort of fancy bits with the speculators, it is determined that nothing shall be done until certain improvements in the inland navigation now under consideration shall have been completed. The whole length of line conceded is about 4,000 versts—over 3,000 miles—and the estimated capital five millions, upon which a guarantee of 5 per cent, is to be given. The successful competitors are an Anglo-French Company, the principal names mentioned being Stieglitz (the Petersburg banker), Uzielli, Pereire (Credit Mobilier), and one or two English names, which will be pubibibcd in due time.
