Sects, and Parties, in all countries, are invited to appoint and send Delegates to a Meeting to be held in the Metropolis of the British Empire, on Monday, 14th May next, in St. Martin's Hall,-to bear explained "Glad Tidings of Great Joy to all Mankind," which will include the principles and the plain and easy practice by which all Governments may make, with the aid of their respective religions, every one, from birth, good, intelligent, wise, united to all, and per manently prosperous and happy. And as a preliminary measure, the United' Trades of this Metro polis are invited to elect and send Delegates to a Meeting to be held. in St. 'Martin's Hall, Jan nary Ist, 1855, at 7 p.m., to have explained to them, that they may &plain to their constituents in London, and to their fellow-workmen over Great Britain and Ireland, the course which will be recommended them to adopt at the Groat Meeting of Universal Delegates to be held as stated, 14th May, on which day will be declared a coming change in the condition of the human race, without revolution or violence, to be effected in peace, with order, wise foresight, and without injury to any one of any class in any country, but with high lasting benefit to all who shall from birth be placed within these new conditions.

There has been no confirmation of the alleged battle of the 13th instant. The Egypt - us, which left Constantinople on the 15th, and which, therefore, ought to have brought any intelligence from the Crimea up to that date, has arrived at Marseilles. She did not bring, however, any news from the Crimea, it being said that the terrific storm of the 13th had prevented the traasmission of any despatch from, the army. If such a battle had taken place, we should unques tionably have heard of it in some official form before tire present time. When, therefore, we remember that no allusion to it has been made in the de spatches of MENSCILIKOFF, which declare that nothi ng of importance had happened up to the 15th instant, we can only regard it as one of the canards by which Western credulity has oc casionally been played - on. As we stated in a recent number, although there would be nothing improbable in such an attack, we must remember that it has not been referred to in the despatches of the Russian General, and that it is alleged to have been made on the French lines, which shows that if it at all took place it must have bees a sortie from the town, inasmuch as the position of the .Allies is such that any attack from the open • country muse be made on the English in the first instance. If, however, there has been no pitched battle, no desperate struggle for life nr death between the besiegers of Sebastopol and those 1 7 whom they in turn are beleaguered, we have isßeaped from other losses of a, serious character. 'said that several of our tran sports have be en • drivenashore in th e B a y o f Katcha, and Shat driven TnanY du r i zig the valuable lives have been sacrificed • xine, s torm of th e 13th an d 14th i n th e Foxing and which' - was also painfully perceptible Constantinople itself. This is, indeed, st r iki ng 'is in th e most tend; point. W e k now t h at Prance is p repared to send powerful reinforce ments to the army d th e East--men sufficient to turn the scale coinpletely, and insure atrium p h of the Western Powe rs . All that is the means of conveyan ce ! There wantin g is ,1 e are trained Koldiers sufficient not only to insure the safety of th e besieging force, but the capture of Sebas' topol and the conquest of the en tire Crimea. Any deterioration of the transport power must therefore be looked Ott as an evil of the grextest magnitude, which could only be regarded as a formidable national calamity. We must, however, remember that the intelligence has only come from Russian sources, and that much exaggeration may be looked for respecting such points. A little difficulty would be exaggerated into a terrible calamity—a mere strung into an entire loss. Thus the running aground of "two s t eamers an d a sc rew ship'' ght have been the chief , if not the only, foun- THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 27, :1854, shower of bullets on the Russians in their attack on our position, not a man of them could have survived coming within its range. We will not give an opinion now on such a suggestion ; but this we know, that the devices of " schemers," despised by men of red tape at first, have become at last the regular equipment of " the service." VOLUNTEERS FOR 1855 ; OR, A VOICE FROM MANCHESTER. We have much pleasure in giving currency to ;he following spirited address : The cry of the people now ringing through the whole laud—from Dover to Galway—from Cornwall to the Ork- neys—calls for a response from the Crown and ~from Parliament. The heroism of our handful of men in the East tells us, that the only fitting response to the cry is an immediate signal to the old spirit of Volunteering among us. Tho last war was nobly closed by some 15,000 Volunteers in mass from the Militia; and it was prepared by the embodying of half-a-million of local volunteers. Great as our countrymen have shown themselves in the East reverses may come. It will be madness not to be ready for those reverses; and no bettor step for that purpose can be taken than the immediate assembling of a million of volunteers in the three kingdoms, to prove that we have counted the cost of the contest we have been driven to wage ; and that we mean to stake that cost for the safety and civilisation of mankind. The people of these islalTs — uacierstaniiie crisis per fectly.. We love peace ; but we know it must be conquered. We abhor tyranny in every form ; but we know it can be crushed by manful resistance. The blood of oar brothers must be avenged ; and the rights of our fellow-men vindicated by every sacrifice of our lives and our fortunes. Both are at the command of the Queen and of Parliament ; and all Europe will see an united people rising as one man to defeat hypocrisy and fraud, and protect society from insolent aggression. By this measure, too, we shall secure the indemnity in hard coin which Russia must pay for disturbing Europe by her unscrapnlou s am biti on. The French allian ce i s wort h a ll we are spen di ng ; to keep it, and impro ve it, we mus t mee t man f u lly the great crisis of our d a y. A VOLUNTUR OF 1812. Malicheater, 24th N ovem b er, 1854. but VOLUNTEERING FROM THE MILITIA TO THB LINE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUX. Silt,—The offer of an Ensigncy for every 75 volun teers from a Militia regiment to the Line may be a boon to a Colonel who has sons or nephews to provide for ; but it is a very poor encouragement to the Adjutant and Staff Sergeants-who have had the labour of raising and training their regiments for the last three years. There is no doubt but that an Adjutant of Militia has m)re influence over the men than any ether officer ; and it is quite natural that the men should place the most confidence in hint who has the most perfect know ledge of his duty, and whom they are aware has been in active service in the field. Men are wanted, and badly enough. Let the autho. rites try the experiment of offerine. the Adjutants, and officers commanding companies in the Militia, who have served in the Militia, their former army rank, provided that they take their men with them, and I am con vinced that the result will be found favourable. By th!s means a considerable force could be at once raised, with the addition of a few efficient officers, whose re appointment to the army would excite no jealousy or diicentent, and who would be gladly welcomed back again to their brothers in arms who may have struggled with them on many a field before. If any reward is to he given, moreover, for a few volunteers, why not give it to those who, by their exer tions, have earned it, and not to the Colonels, whose arduous services in few instances would entitle them to mere than the exalted rank and the liberal pay already awarded to them, and who appeared at the first train ings of their regiments as wise as those recruits whom they came to command l—l have the honour to be, sir, your obedient servant, A SOLDIER. dation for the alleged loss of twelve English ransports. We rejoice, however, to find that some, although inadequate, reinforcements are finding their way to the seat of war. MAYRAN'S division, among which were the French troops lately quar tered in Greece, sailed from the Bosphorus on the 6th, too late it is true to participate in the splendid victory of Inkerman, but ready to supply the places of those who fell on that glorious day, and to relieve the survivors from their too arduous duties. All the reserve formerly main tained at Varna or Gallipoli, indeed we may say anywhere in the " direction" of hostilities, have been transmitted to the scene of action, and with them some 10,000 Turks, and 6,500 Egyptians. It is also asserted that the Ottoman Government will send 40,000 more, and that the French are prepared to send a numerous body also, for whom 13 large English steamers have already arrived at Marseilles. These exertions of our Allies are very creditable, but they will not dispense with equally energetic efforts on our parts. We should blush for shame if we hung back when others were displaying such earnest determination. We shall not do so— for Parliament will shortly be assembled ; and whatever may be the views of Lord ABERDEEN, we can trust to the representatives of the British people to give expression to the views and feelings of their respective constituents. Even Lord ABERDEEN himself will be convinced before many days have elapsed after the appointia day of meeting. It is said, after all, that we are really to have a winter Session of Parliament, and that the 12th proximo is fixed on for that purpose. Matters have proceeded to such a length as to rouse the " good and excellent" Old Lady at the head of her MA JESTY'S Government from the protracted slumbers in which she has so perseveringly indulged. The CZAR'S " friend of forty years' standing" is at length becoming aware of the position in which he has involved the country, and beginning to think that it may be just as well to divide his responsibility with the chosen representatives of the people. Previously he had determined to retain the disposal of everything in his own hands, and he was enabled to do so through the singular improvidence of Parliament in granting a vote of credit for 3,000,0001., which he, in conjunction with his colleaguesi were authorised to dispose of as he thought proper. Whether the fund has proved inadequate, or his colleagues res tive, we know not. Possibly he has been himself startled from his dream by perceiving the magnitude of the difficulty in which he has in volved the country. Whatever be the cause, however, the great fact of a meeting of Parliament will be hailed with exultation by the entire community. We believe, and fervently hope, that a section of the Cabinet, headed by Lords JOHN RUSSELL and PALMERSTON, insisted on this constitutional course being adopted. It would, indeed, rejoice us to find that those in whom we had trusted were still worthy of unlimited confidence—that they were Englishmen in heart and soul, jealous of the honour of their fatherland, and determined to place it, as it ought to be, beyond all reproach. We shall cling to this hope until it be completely dispelled, for, as we have declared, we should not wish the ties by which we have so long been con nected with the party of which they were the re cognised leaders to be rudely severed, or in any degree weakened. The meeting of Parliament is, however, the " great fact," which, we trust, will lead to the folioitous solution of the important problem On which the nation is now pondering. It is at length discovered that we are engaged in no " rose-water war," which can be brought to a conclusion with scarcely a perceptible effort on our part. Taught by sad experience, and in letters written in the blood of our best and bravest, we have discovered that every nerve must be strained to the utmost to bring the terrible contest in which we are engaged to a speedy, honourable, and safe termination. We know that we must spare neither men nor money in the noble cause. We have seen how gallantly the handful already despatched have conducted themselves—maintaining the character of their country at the highe point to which it has ever been elevated, and eliciting the admiration alike of friends and foes. We must not, from any paltry considerations of L.S.D., desert these brave men, or prove faithless Allies to - those with whom we have entered into a firm and binding compact. Our duties to our countrymen, and to their brave companions in the Crimean campaign, alike de mand a strenuous and determined effort to re lieve those who are subjected to more anxious trials than they could fairly be allowed to sustain, and also to achieve the great object for which we reluctantly entered into hostilities, after neatly forty years' peace. Whatever views may be enter tained as to the original question---whether, like ourselves, the people consider the Ministry to have been far too cautious, and to have occasioned irreparable mischief by their hesitation and pro crastination, or, whether, like Mr. Jowl . BRIGHT, they look on Lord ABERDEEN as a rather fast young man, who has acted with great recklessness and impetuosity, all will agree that the scanty remnant of our troops sent to the Crimea, who still, although reduced to less than half their original number, present an adverse front to the far more numerous foe, must be succoured. We must relieve our brothers, who are involved in a dilemma so formidable. We must also show our selves worthy of the cordial friendship and co operation of France--not striving to sconce or to half perform the task we have undertaken, and to the performance of which vie have pledged the National Faith. That which we have so unflinch ingly maintaind in all pecuniary matters—albeit, at heavy sacrifices —must not now be forfeited, or even placed for a moment in doubt, by any lukewarmness or holding back in the noble cause. It is said that the primary cause of the assem bling of the Legislature is the necessity for re ceiving authority t• send the militia, er at least certain regiments who have volunteered for the duty, out of the realm to various parts in the Mediterranean, the regular garrisons whereof are about to be sent to more active service in the Crimea. It is a very plausible excuse, but we are convinced that questions of far greater importance will be ventilated—that it will not be mere matters of form on which Parliament will be occupied. It is En Ofsli hearts that beat under militia jackets. It is English blood that circulates through the veins of th e b rave f e llows that have not awaited the in Lfavourable chance' of the ballot, but came freely :any willingly forward in the service of their country. Al t h ough they m i g h t p l ea d a bi n di ng ntl :at..,t, a n d i ns i st on the i r exempt i on f rom .forei ,- , ,u. service, we believe that not a single man would hesitate or hang back. On' the con trary !ed. for something • th e ~ d es ire W o uld be that they should be More onerous, and far more perilous th an the mere garrisoning of for tresses i; in the Mediterranean, to w hi c h the wooden ction.e walls of England afford e d ample prot, Bi it although the embodiment of the entire militia force, and the demand for permission to 1 send certain regiments out of the British Islands, may form the plausible pretext for convening Parliament, it does not follow that the business transacted will be restricted 'within such narrow limits. Our representatives are not tied down to matters brought forward under official sanction, or restrained from taking the initiative whenever occasion may re quire. There never was a more urgent call for the most determined efforts, and we are con vinced that " the chosen" of the English will prove themselves, like the British soldiers, adequate to any emergency, and ready to perform their duty under any circumstances, however adverse. Early in the campaign we pointed out the mili tary necessity of destroying Odessa, or, at least, of rendering it, useless, as a base of military ope rations, and while it was contended by others that Sebastopol was too serious an enterprise, we showed that, even if it were, Odessa and Nicho laieff were neither impregnable nor unessential. The past, of course, cannot be altered, but we presume to ask whether it would not be most desirable even now to demolish everything Russian between the Sulina mouth of the Danube and Sebastopol itself ; and, further to dredge the mouth of the river and make it practicable at least for our smaller war steamers ? It has proved, as we always contended, that if Odessa was not a powerful fortress, it was a most serviceable base of operations for the army of the Danube ; it was the grand depot for supplies of provisions and other necessaries of an army. We ought to have demanded the destruction of every thingmilitary in the town, and the transportation to Turkey of all stores of corn and provisions in whose soever hands they were found, as being, under the circumstances, the most important' materials of war. This, or to be laid in ashes, was in truth but humanity to all who might suffer directly or indirectly by the too leiient conduct of the war. The error of our fatal mercy was too soon ap parent in the loss of the Tiger ; and is now more awfully to be seen in the prolonged siege of Se bastopol, and the losses of our gallant army in repulsing the " reinforcements from the Danube." Had we turned the cowardice of the Russian navy to its proper account, and while its ships were skulking behind stone walls have employed ours in demolishing Odessa and destroying Nicholaieff, the Danubian battalions could not have been transported so promptly to the Crimea, and probably Sebastopol would have been taken before they could have arrived at all. We have, therefore, not only the villany of Austria, but our own half-heartedness, to thank for our losses. Even our Cabinet must now be convinced that tenderness to Russia has been repaid only by the slaughter of our men ; and the return for sparing Odessa and sending the Russian wounded there has been the bayonetting of our own fallen soldiers. Mercy to barbarians is ever cruelty to ourselves. They cannot comprehend it. Let them feel, then, the full consequences of provoking our strength. Lot us fairly destroy everything belonging to Russia on the Black Sea which can shelter her troops, or afford them means of transport from place to place. We deeply pity the innocent victims of this cruel necessity ; but let them know that their god, NICHOLAS, cannot at the same time use them as instruments of his accursed ambition, and save them from being involved in its punishment. We trust, therefore, the statements respecting the renewed activity of OMER. PACHA on the Pruth, and the sending of part of the French reinforce ments to his aid against Bessarabia, itre founded in truth. Of course the first thing is to estab blish an unquestionable superiority for the Allies in the Crimea ; but hardly second to this,. even now, is the detention of the Russian Danubian army to the west of Kherson, by operations against Bessarabia. We have but played at war all the summer ; we must now make amends for it, alas ! during winter. We have vessels which can bravo the winter winds of •the Euxine. NICHOLAS will cer tainly avail himself of the impunity afforded by the ice to his Baltic coast to pour down his forces to his southern shores ; but we can also, while our commerce is protected from his frigates by the same ice, send our Baltic steamers to try their broadsides upon his ports and towns in the south. The splendid seamanship which brings home such a feet safe from the shallows of the Baltic will know how to handle our ships amidst the winter dangers of the Black Sea. Measures like these, war on the largest scale, must take the place of the system of dalliance which lasted till. the expedition against Sebastopol. The whole question is now vastly enlarged. It is no longer whether-Turkey shall be safe or not. That ques tion must be settled in the Crimea, and it will be; but, though the overthrew of Sebastopol will utterly destroy the military prestige of Russia in the south, NICHOLAS will only be the more infu riate. The Baltic must also be denuded of Rus sian fortresses and Russian men-of-war next sum mer, and by that time there can hardly be a doubt that Poland will have its turn. The Rus sian maritime means of offence against Europe must be first annihilated, and then every voice will pronounce that Poland must be its awn, and be no longer Russia's out-works against us all. By that time all Europe may be in the flame of revolution, and it may be come the welcome duty of France and England to bid the nations be free, and, as an act of un deserved merchto send a batch of Royal and Im perial despots to meditate on their folly and perfidy on the rock of St. Helena. One word more to our administrators, civil and military. It was hardly a mere joke whon the tfter-dinner proposal was made that the two great contractors for the Crystal Palace should contract next with Government for the taking of Sebastopol Or Cronstadt. Sir JOSEPH PAXTON gave us at least, quite seriously, a usefrl hint at Coventry, the other day in the same vein. War is more than ever become dependent on engineering icience ; and our men of routine must not be Move accepting the aid of the men who have proved themselves equal to any engineering feat. Some thousands of our navvies would, as Sir JOSEPH suggests, have - saved our troops most in jurious fatigue in earthworks, and been thus prac tically a large addition to our army. , Nor can we doubt that, while the face-to-face and hand-to !land attack upon the foe must always be left to disciplined courage and skill, our civil engineers, were the responsibility thrown upon them, would .levelope unexpected and most wonderful 113- ;oin-oes. Russia has no such ability. It abounds in England. Let not official pride overlook our national advantages. , The battering down of Oronstadt, with little loss to the invaders, would, , with the architect of the Menai Vubular Bridge, be a matter of definite calculation. \ lle would soon compute for how many hundred thousa nd p ounds he could do it ; aye, and very likely could get plenty of persons willing to take shares in the profits of his contract. It was observed to us but the other day that steam now can be got to ally pressure in three minutes ; and. that if PER KINS' steam-gun could _have, poured its unceasing BAYMA.RK.KT THEATRE. Mr. Buckstone, en Saturday evening last, returned t• his post, after a lengthened absence. On his appearance he was warmly welcomed, but not more than his sterlibg merits, both as an actor and a manager, deserved. At the termination of the comedy, Presented at Court, there was a general call for Mr. Buckstone, which he obeyed as Lady Trumpington, led on by Mr. Howe, and curt seyed very modestly far the bouquets which were thrown on the stage, amid the laughter and applause of the audience. Mr. Buckstone re-appeared on Saturday in Mr. Stir ling Coyne's pleasant comedy of Presented at Court, thus most efficiently putting and end td the unfounded rumour that he hid retired from the stage. He was received with the heartiest applause, and well he• de served the reception, for in the double capacity of actor and author, no one has laboured so much and so succes fully as Mr. Buckstone.—Times.

A telegraphic despatch, the purport of which is not clearly understood, has been received from the Admiralty. It was to this effect :—" If the Prin cess Royal is to proceed to England, Rear-Admiral Seymour is to hoist his flag on board that ship." To this, I have heard, from a source on which re liance may be placed, the Commander-in-Chief replied as follows :—" No orders have reached me for any one of the ships under my command to leave Kiel harbour for England." A statement appears in the Independance Beige, ' dated Hamburg, the 17th inst., announcing that the departure of the fleet is further postponed until the 4th of December, when it will be determined on what ships are to proceed home, and that in structions will be forwarded to the Commander-in- Chief to leave a certain portion of the fleet in this harbour for the winter season. But I believe this statement to be entitled to very little credence. Yesterday the on dit at the " Club" was, that a portion of the Russian fl ee t had left Helsingfors and captured two of our cruizers in the Gulf of Finland so recently as three days since. Such an event is highly improbable, and you must receive the intelligence with great reserve. It reached this port by electric telegraph, and is universally considered without foundation. By the latest advices the ice from Sweaborg 'and Cronstadt has not yet formed to any very great extent, and the navigation of the Gulf of Finland is still open. Here it has been freezing hard for the past two days, with a piercing wind from E.S.E., and a slight fall of snow. The a thermometertem( (Fahrenheit) temperatu re e i o t) f yesterday, at 7 a.m., indicated 27 degs. in the open air. Its maximum during the day was 30 degs., its minimum 2G deo. The barometer fell rapidly, till it reached 29 . 052 inches, where it remained stationary. During the past few days the rear squadron has b een visited by Rear-Admiral 'l o a f d l s v , h w i e l e ith m mustered t c e o r m ed . the orows of the various ships posed. The Vulture, paddle-steamer, Captain F. H. Glasse, sails to-day with despatches and munitions of war for the squadron under the orders of Cap blockading. tail). R. Watson, the enemy's ports in the Gulf of Finland. The Magicienne, paddle stearn-frigate, Captain Thos. Fisher, has proceeded to the head of the harbour to replenish her fuel, on completing which she is to be despatched on particular service. At this port the duties connected with the Post office appear to be imperfectly performed. Letters which ought to reach England in three days occupy five in their transit, and, in some instances, a much longer period. Moreover, those which are prepaid sometimes fail in reaching their destination. While writing, orders have arrived for the St. Jean d'Acre, Captain the Hon. H. keppel, and Princess Royal, Captain Lord C. Paget, to, proceed 'home forthwith, for the purpose of being dccked, to make good the defects arising from their having got on shore off the island of Mow en, in the pas sage from Nargen to this harbour. They are trans ferring to the James Watt and Gesar their surplus provisions, stores, dm., reserving for their own use a supply thereof for 30 days. They 'are to sail for England on the 25th inst. The Locust, paddle steam-sloop, left port this forenoon on particular service. Much snow had fallen during the night. The wind had veered to the westward. Thermometer to-day at noon 34 deg. (Fahrenheit), barometer 28.940. We have telegraphic news from Odessa to the 17th inst. Up to this date no further intelligence of importance had been received from the Crimea. The engagement of the sth is not considered by the Russians to have been of a decisive character. The French suffered considerable loss on that oc casion, in consequence of having pursued the regi ment Minsk to the Russian entrenchments. The temperature at Odessa was 3 degrees Ramnur, and snow had fallen to a depth of three inches. A letter from Batouin, in the Lloyd of Vienna, states that Mustapha Paella has been ordered to hold himself in readiness to embark for the Crimea with 10,000 men of the elite of the Turkish army. SPAIN. THE SPANISH MINISTRY. The following private telegraphic despatch ha been received : "MADRID, Nov. 22. "A rumour is current that a new Ministry is formed, the members of which aro MM. Gurrea, Gaminde, Allende Salazar, Gomez, Oliver, Aguirre, and Mathen. This combination, however, seems to us very unlikely, and we give it, subject to all reserve." LATEST NEWS. We have received the following telegraphic despatch front our correspondent in Vienna : "VIENNA, SATURDAY MORNING. "Between the 9th and 13th Mayran's division and 2,340 more French troops left Constantino ple for the Crimea. 10,000 Turks and 6,500 Egyptians have also taken their departure. " Osten-Sacken is to take the command in the Crimea, instead of Dannenberg. "Omer Pasha is reported to have received orders not to advance into Moldavia." We have els* received the following despatch, dated last night, from our correspondent iu Vienna :-- " The Oest. Correspondent of this afternoon states that at 2 o'clock Count Buol and Count Arnim, by order of their respective Courts, signed an additional article to the treaty of April 20. " As a consequence of the complete understand ing thus established between - the two great Ger man Powers, it is certain that the motion about to be made in the Diet will be carried by a ma jority almost amouating to unanimity. Thus the influence of the whole of Germany will be se. cured on the great European question now pond. ing. " Official Russian news states that during the stormy night of the 14th, 12 transports were lost on the shore in the embouchure of the Katcha. " Some of the men fell into the hands of the Russians, but none of the vessels. " Two steamers and a screw-ship, which had run aground, were got off by lightening the ♦ea- sels." We have since received the following from our correspondent at Vienna : " VIENNA, SUNDAY EVENING, 6 O'CLOCK. " It is now positiTely affirmed that Austria has accepted, with some slight modifications, the pro positions contained in the Prussian Note of the 15th. • " A day or two since Bavaria announced her accession to the policy of Austria on the Oriental question, and promised her support in the Ger man Diet. "If this be correct, the policy of Austria can hardly be that of the Western Powers. "Russia has prohibited the exportation of a] kinds of corn into Austria. " Prince Napoleon was to return to Balaklava on the 17th of November." The following, dated last night, is from our correspondent in Paris : "The Egyptus, which left Constantinople on the 15th, has arrived to-day at Marseilles. She does not bring any news fiora the Crimea, the storm of the 13th having prevented the departure of the courier from the army. The Journal de Constantinople mentions the embarkation for the Crimea of 10,000 Turks, and the expected speedy departure of 40,000 more. Mahmoud Pasha, formerly Minister of Marine, has been exiled. " The armies in Asia were about to take up their winter quarters. " Thirteen large English steamers arrived yes• terday at Marseilles." THE BALTIC FLEET. KIEL, Nov. 25.

A partial change of ministry has taken place. Scheel. is appointed Minister for Holstein, Warnsted for Schleswig, and Bulow, now at Frankfort, for Minister of War. MALTA. MALTA, Nov. 22. The Ottawa and Cleopatra have left with 1,096 men; the Golden Fleece with 571 men. The Arethusa has arrived from Constantinople with 192 invalids. THE PRINCIPALITIES. A letter of the 14th, from Jassy, confirms the roport that the Turks under Sadik Pacha are cross ing the Sereth, but it does not appear probable that an invasion of Bessarabia will be ventured upon. The movement of the Turks looks more like a demonstration for the purpose of drawing Prince Gortschakoff's attention'from the Crimea. The pontoon bridge at Rutschuk has been removed from thence to Silistria ; and two bridges have been thrown over the Sereth near its conflux with the Danube. The Russians in Bessarabia are making great preparations for defence • and the line of the Pruth is strongly fortified at all points. Whole villages have been destroyed for this pur pose. The Presse says that on the 14th Prince Gortschakoff was still at Kisohinoff, as also the Grand Dukes Michael and Nicholas, who were about to leave for Warsaw. The troops, which in October were being conveyed in waggons to the Russo-Moldavian frontier, had been ordered to the Gallician frontier. According to a private letter of the 15th, from Bucharest, Omer Paoha received his instructions to advance towards the Russian frontier on the 6th. The garrison of the Wallachian capital was also to march to the north, and the Commander-in -Chief in tended to follow on the 16th. The rain wasincessant, and the weather so tempestuous that the operations of the Sirdar were much retarded. His Highness has applied to the British Government for experienced English officers. It appears that the recent mis conduct of the Turks at Balaklara has muoh mor tified Omar Pasha, who well knows what his army can do when they are well officered, as was the case at Silistria and Giurgevo. General Cannon, who left with his little staff for Braila on the 13th, is said to be in very high favour with the Turkish commander. The victory obtained by the Allies on the .sth was proclaimed. at Bucharest on the 11th. FRAN CE. --- PARIS, SUNDAY EVENING. The following telegraphic despatch, which has arrived hero to-day, adds but little to our previous information from the Crimea beyond the fact that up to the 15th nothing was known at Constanti nople of any further attack on the part of the Bus. sians. The despatch does not affirna up to what date intelligence from Balaklava had been received iu the Turkish capital ; but it is to be supposed that the last news was only to the 12th, as a dread ful tempest raged in the Black Sea on the 13th and 14th. Hence the vessel which has just arrived brings no letters from the Crimea : " Marseilles, Nov. 26. "The Egyptus arrived here last night, bringing news from Constantinople to the 15th, but with out letters from the Crimea, a violent storm which ; prevailed in the Black Sea on the 13th having pre- vented the arrival of the mail from .the Crimea. " According to the intelligence received previ ously, the Russians continue fortifying the houses in the interior of Sebastopol ; but they are likewise preparing the means, of retreating into the fortifica tions of the north, by establishing two bridges of boats. _ . " A part of the troops beaten at Inkerman had arrived from Odessa in nine days in carts. "The Journal de Constantinople states that in addition to the speedy sending of 40,000 men (Eng lish and French), 10,000 Turks are to embark for the Crimea. " Twenty-two transports have passed the Dar danelles. On the 9th the Golden Fleece took a regiment of artillery on board at Malta. " The army of Asia is doing nothing. It had 100 deaths a day during the month of October, but their situation was improving. It was preparing for winter quarters. " The Russian prisoners state that the two Grand Dukes, during their stay in the Crimea, recom mended the Poles to have full confidence in the in tentions of the Czar. " The Candia, from Liverpool, and two other large steamers, arrived last evening at Marseilles." The following private telegraphic despatch has also been received here : " TRIESTE, 24T21.—Advices from Alexandria to the 18th state that the Viceroy of Egypt had started with 12,000 troops for the desert, in order to exercise them in strategic movements and accustom them to marching. The same courier brings news from Bombay to the 28th ultimo. The embassy sent by the English to the Burmese Monarch had ar.•ived at R4ngoon. The King was disposed to negotiate with Eng. land, but claimed restitution of certain parts of his ter ritory conquered by the British troops. The last news from Hong Kong comes down to Oct. 11. At Cantor; it was expected that the city would soon be stormed. The French, English, and American commissioners had reached Shanghai, and were going on to Pekin." The Moniteur of yesterday says that the Em peror has just addressed the following letter to the General-in-Chief of the army of the East :--: " Palace of St. Cloud, Nov. 21 "General,—Your report respecting the victory of In kerman has excited deep emotion in my mind. Express, in my name, to the army my entire satisfaction with the courage it has displayed, with its energy in supporting fatigues and privations, and its warm cordiality towards our allies. Thank the generals, the officers, and the sol diers for their valiant conduct. Tell them that I warmly sympathise with their misfortunes and the cruel losses they have experienced, and that my constant solicitude shall be directed to the task of softening the bitterness of them. After the brilliant victory of the Alma, I had hoped for a moment that the routed army of the enemy would not so easily have repaired its losses, and that Sebastopol would soon have fallen under our attacks; but the obstinate de fence of that town and the reinforcements received by the Russian army have for the moment arrested the course of our success. I approve of the resistance you made to the impatience of the troops who wished to make the assault ender circumstances which would have entailed too cox siderable losses. " The English and French Governments direct their serious attention to their army in the East. Already steam-boats are traversing the seas with considerable rein forcements. This increase of assistance will double your forces, and enable you to assume the offensive. A power ful diversion is about to take place in Bessarabia, and I receive the assurance that from day to day in foreign coun tries public opinion becomes more and more favourable to us. If Europa should have seen without alarm our eagles, so long banished, displayed vith so much éclat, it is be cause it knows that we aro eely fighting for its indepen dence. If Frante has resumed the position to which she is pntitled, and if Victory has again\ attended upon our flags, declare it with pride—to the patriotism and to the indomitable bravery of the army that I owe it. I, send General de Montebello, one of my aides-de camp, to convey to the army the rewards which it has so *ell meiited. "" In the meantime, General, I pray God to have you in His holy keeping. "NAPOLEON." A letter from Marseilles, of the 23d inst., says : " The greatest activity prevails in the port of La Jo liette at this moment. A dozen transports are taking on board a squadron of the waggon train, and a number of mules. 100 Chasseurs d'Afrique are to embark in the same transports. The steamer Galiano is to sail to-night for Constantinople, having been chartered by Govern ment for the conveyance of a strong detachment of mounted gendarmes and ammunition for the army of the East. All the steamers freighted for the same service have already commenced loading stores. M. Baudens, head surgeon of the military hospital in Paris, arrived yesterday at Marseilles." General' Count de Montebello, who is the bearer of the Emperor's proofs of approbation to the army, was to have left yesterday, and in some of to-day's papers his departure is announced. He was, how ever, in Paris at one o'clock to-day, but leaves this ev ning. On Tuesday last the Emperor and Empress were present at an experiment of the machine for trans planting trees, invented by Mr. Stewart Mac- Glashin, of Edinburgh. Tho trial was attended with complete success, and his Majesty, after pur chasing the apparatus, requested the inventor to proceed to St. Cloud, on Thursday morning, to teach the gardeners of the Palace the manner of working it. The Moniteur says :—" We lately published, under all reserve, a manifesto attributed to Count de Montemolino. According to a letter addressed from Naples to the Parlamento of Turin by M. Thomas d'Agiout, and copied by the Messager de Bayonne, this manifesto is said to be apocryphal. Havinc , inserted the former docu ment, we think it our duty to admit the explana tion of which it is the object." There is no truth in the announcement in the Comsat ationnel of this morning, that Colonel Tripior, the head of the French engineering staff in the Crimea, was killed at the battle of Inkerman. He is the principal officer of engineers immediately under General Bizot, and his death would have been a great calamity. Happily his friends have re ceived letters from him subsequently to Nov. 5. M. Creuzot, the Government candidate, has been elected deputy to the legislative body for the de partment of the Cantal, in the room of M. de la Gu6ronniere, named Councillor of State. The English steamer Petrel is now in the dock at Havre, taking on board a quantity of stores for the army of the East left behind by the Alps steamer, which sailed a few days since for the same destination. The Petrel• will be followed by four other steamers with provisions of all kinds for the army. BOURSE, SATURDAY.—CLOSING PRICES. Cash. fr. c.

The Atlantic arrived out on the 12th, and the St. Louis on the 11th. The papers express indignation at the treatment received by Mr. Soule. The Washington correspondent of the Herald says of the Soule affair----" You may expect to find the Administration cavilling with, regard to Mr. Soule's statement ; already Mr. Pierce is alarmed at the idea of the French Baltic fleet arriving here, while Marcy growls out that if Soule is not in stantly recalled he will resign. " It is believed that no steps will be taken till the meeting of Congress, when an attempt will be made to place 10,000,000 doll. or 20,000,000 doll. at the President's disposal to Filibuster with." Another correspondent of the same paper says :-- " The Soule expulsion is considered an awkward affair ; the Administration are very much annoyed, with a determination to protect the honour of the country it will not sustain Mr. Soule in any indis creet act affecting the respect duo to the French Emperor. Mr. Marcy says, 'We have had enough of this,' and is in favour of recalling Mr. Soule. The Government are awaiting further despatches, as in our present advices the Govern ment have no evidence that Mr. Soule acted indis creetly in France ; but it is the general opinion. that Louis Napoleon would not have adopted sueh a course without good cause. No immediate trou ble is apprehended. The Know-nothings take great interest in this affair, and say, ' Send Ame rican gentleman as Ambassadors." The Washington Union expresses the hope that the decree against Mr. Soule was issued under a misapprehension of facts, and that the Emperor will make prompt reparation. The Washington correspondent of.a Philadelphia paper says : ‘‘ Letters from Mr. Soule, brought by the At lantic, have been received here by the Government; he states that neither by word, deed, letter, nor communication has ho compromised himself or in any manner interfered with French affairs. " The Cabinet is now in session deliberating on the despatches sent by Mr. Soule ; the behaviour of the French Secretary for Foreign Affairs towards Mr. Masson on the occasion of the latter's demand of an explanation of the action of the Government in relation to Mr. Soule, is regarded here as a very serious matter." There was a run on several of the - Washington banks, also at Cleveland. At Cincinnati, George Milne and Co. and the Union Bank had closed. The Elgin notes are in use again, and taken. The City Bank of Chicago had stopped payment ; at New Orleans Matthew Finlay and Co., private bankers, had suspended. Several other b an k s i n various districts had sus' pended.
