N _ F ff :L 7,;• June last, while there is the assurance that the portion of the line, equal by the way to an im portant English one, is already brought into good working order. The working expenditure has, of course, been high under such circumstances, but it would be very unreasonable to expect that it could have been otherwise. The working of another year will, however, we have no doubt, more than verify the anticipations of the Directors in this respect. The Victoria-bridge—the connecting link be tween the Western and Eastern divisions of dif ferent sections of the line—is progressing satisfac torily. When completed, it will cast even that on the Chester and Holyhead line into the shade, and prove, indeed, an additional wonder of the world. We cannot con dude without offering our hearty congratulations, not only to the Shareholders in this important line, but also to every one inte rested in the development of civilisation, and the consequent harmonising of the world ou the ex tension of the principle, which, next to that of printing, is calculated to benefit mankind and improve their social position. Among the notices given for the commence ment of next session is one from the Honourable and Learned Geatleman the member for Bath, that ho will bring in a bill for the more effectual prevention of assaulta on women and children. Flom what has all eady fallen from Mr. PHINN, we can, without any extraordinary pretensions to foresight, venture to foretell the nature of the contemplated measure. He clearly pointed out the inadequacy of the enactments already carried to control the brutal and unmanly propensities of truculent scoundrels, who have earned an un happy notoriety for themselves by their ill-treat ment of their unfortunate partners. Ho felt that nothing could degrade a man who had already fal!en so far as to lift his cowardly hand against a woman, one, too, whom lie had solemnly vowed "to love and cherish," to sustain and support. He, therefore, thought that in such cases corpo ral punishment could properly be administered ; that it was, in fae, the only suitable means of checking those who chose to act as domestic tyrants, and to maltreat those unable to defend themselves. Experienco has shown the accuracy of the Hon. Gentleman's views in one respect. The remedies hitherto in force have proved totally inadequate to the disease. Although "summary," they have not been by ar.y means sufficiently " sharp and decisive." The scoundrel who maltreats his unfortunate wife or children knows how essential he is to their comfort. Although he may frighten all those who live under the same roof, he is yet " the bread-winner," the person who provides daily sustenance for the inmates of his dwelling. If lie be sent to Prison, they must, in all human probability, also go to the Workhouse. If he gets the tread-wheel, or crank, they have to submit to annoyances nearly as vexatious. The innocent are, therefore, punished as well as the guilty. There is a great and natural repugnance to preferring a complaint that may be followed by such untoward results. Besides, strange as the operation may be, these valorous women-beaters do not form a just con ception of the horrors of incarceration. They fancy that it is a species of holiday, during which they are "to sit at home at ease," without any thing to disturb their repose. We frequently find wretches of this kind chuckling with satisfaction at the anticipated sufferings of their families previously to their transmission by the p lice to the Prison or House of Correction to which they are about to be consigned. It is true that in a very brief space their disposition will be materially altered, and that they will find oil the laughing proceeding from " the wrong sides of their mouths," but their boon companions, those ready to spend all their earnings in disAipatiou and riotous living, and to appease the pangs of conscience by thrashing their wives and children, will not be aware of the salutary change. They will see the ntis,ifeant as he appeared at the Police-.ourt, defying the authorities, and not as he really was in his miserable cell, while under going the well merited expiation of his offence. The example—that alone can check such proceedings—is therefore wanting, and the offence, which has cast a deop stain and reproach on the English name, has gone on increasing both in quantity and quality, notwith standing the summary penalty to which. the offenders are liable. We are not the advocates of corporal punish ment ; we do not, generally speaking, consider flagellation either expedient or justifiable. But we agree with Mr. PHINN in thinking that it offers the only reasonable prospect of checking th e pranks of the cruel assailants of women and children. Those of the most cruel dispositions are also invariably the most cowardly. Persons most ready to inflict pain on others are the least willing to endure it themselves. The knowledge of an adequate retribution, in the shape of a few dozens of lashes from the cat-o'-nine-tails, would do far more to check the practice than a severe punishment in the shape of protracted incarceration. Flogging would be fully understood. The disgrace to the sufferer would be far greater than that of imprisonment, and the example would therefore be more valuable. Of course the power should be exercised with great caution, and the entire pro ceedings of the court by which the sentence had been pronounced should be subjected to the closest revision. We have no doubt, however, that Mr. PHINN will provide the necessary ma chinery for carrying out his views, and we have no doubt that ho will now obtain the support which was only withheld until the last potent re medy had been fully and ftirly tested—had been weighed in the balance and found wanting. LONDON, TUESDAY. AUGUST 15, 1854. In another part of this day's impression we give in extenso the very interesting report of the Directois of the Grand Trunk Railway Company of Canada. Tho amount of English capital en gaged in this vast undertaking would alone entitle it to particular notice. But it cannot be regarded merely as aquestion of s. D. It toolargely affects the welfare and prosperity of one of our most im portant Colonies to he looked at solely in that point of view. The Shareholders will feel natu rally anxious that their investment should prove remunerative, and that they should obtain the ample returns to which their judicious specula tion so eminently entitles them. But the philan thropist, who considers the effects of a weil devised and comprehensive system of railway on the fortunes of no inconsiderable portion of the human fatuity—men speaking the same language and acknowledging the same allegiance as our selves—will reflect with even greater satisfaction on the progress already made towards the accom plishment of this gigantic project. There are, indeed, ample grounds for congratulation to all Iler pecuniarily concerned or otli3r rise, in the docarnent which now appears in -,:~a, wli': our colurnus. It may be necessary to remind' our readers, that the Grand Trunk Railway of Canada wo.a intended to comprise all the companies previously constructed or in course of construction, whose lines intersected or joined the Main Trunk Railway with the Grand Trunk Railway Com pany. By so doing, a complete " line," or rather " system," would be formed more than eleven hundred miles in length, with a uniform gauge o f five feet six inches, that being the gauge which the experience of the various parties engaged in the memorable contest known as " the battle of the gauges," proved to be the best for all prac tical purposes. Placed under undivided control and management, protected from all injurious competition by natural causes as well as by legis lative enactments--and traversing a rich and fertile country more than eight hundred miles in length, and with a population exceeding three millions, it might be expected that large profits would be realised whenever the vast expense could be carried into practical operation ; and from what now appears on the face of the report, we see that there " is every prospect of the most sanguine anticipations being realised." It appears that the fusion of the different com . parries for which legislative powers had been granted some time since was completed in July .of last year. The certificates, wisely and judici ously issued under the guarantee of the Province, and the conversion of the paid-up shares of the different companies speedily followed ; and from onr knowledge of the efficient arrangements made by the company, we can easily credit the assurance that the arrangements in respect thereto have been " of the most complete and satisfactory cha meter." No expense was spared in the first in stance, and, as usually follows, the result has been exceedingly beneficial to the company. The , services of the most experienced, zealous, and efficient men were obtained , and hence there has been no necessity for a retro grade movement no sacrifice of thousands required by a s pur i ous economy of pounds. In securing the valuable assistance of Sir CUSACK RoNET as managing director, the Board afforded conclusive evidence of their determina tion to give the Shareholders every possible gua rantee for the most judi c i al , and careful manage ment of their concerns. The indomitable energy, indefatigable activity, and vast pract ical experience of the managing director has already produced the fruits that might have been anticipated from the seeds sown under such auspicious drew,. stances. Thus we find that imme diatel y after th e amal gamation was completed, the system of " audit of all receipts from traffic " was brought into opera tion on the system of the London Clearing-house; a complete an d effective cheque being thus esta blished on all payments on account of traffic. Arrangements have also been made for its exten - Rion as the different sections of the Grand Trunk line are completed from time to time. Two branches, constituting together the line from Portland to Montreal, 292 miles in length, have been opened. They were delivered to the company in July, 1853, in a state unfit for working, with the locomotive and carriage stock deplorably defective; but such has been the ac tivity displayed that the traffic on this portion • , has already increased gradually and steadily from • 1,644/. 3:i. 9J., during the first week of the half . yo.a, to 3,6274 Is. 9d..in that ending on the 30th THE SUN, LONDON, TIPESDAY EITENUNG, AUGUST 15, 1854.

Last evening the mortal remains of Viscount Jocelyn were hermetically sealed in the presence of the noble relatives, and removed from the residence of Lord Palmerston, in Carlton -gardens, to the Eastern Counties Railway, Shoreditch, whence they were conveyed by special train to Hyde-hail, Sawbridge, Hertfordshire, and will be fina lly deposited in the family vault. The coffin bore the in • scr iption—"Robert Viscount Jocelyn, Lieutenant- Colonel, Commander of the Royal Essex Rifles. Born Feb. 20, 1 816 ; died, 12th August, 1854." . . CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY). OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Baron Martin.) Louis Jonas, 25, traeller, was indicted for embezzling several sums of money belonging to Heineman Rosen berg, his master. Mr. Sleigh prosecuted, and. Mr. Clarkson defended. The prosecutor was a tobacconist in Farringdon-street, and the prisoner h,d been in his service but a few months, and had embezzled sums amounting in the whole to about 701., which he had received in his capacity as town traveller. The Jury found the prisoner guilty. Sentence was deferred. Eliza Milford, 19, spinster, was indicted for stealing he sum of 50 sovereigns. Mr. Parry stated the following singular case against the prisoner :—Upon the 22d of May last, Mr. Taylor, the proprietor of the Elephant and Castle, Newington, sent his pot boy with a parcel containing 501. in gold, accompanied by a letter, to a gentleman named Jolly, living at 15, New Boswell-court, Strand. The pot-boy could not read, and getting into Old Boswell-court, he asked another pot-boy the name of the person to whom the letter was addressed, and where he lived. This pot-boy not being able to read well, mistook the name on the letter, took it for that of Holt, and directed Mr. Taylor's servant to a room upon the second floor of No. 6 Old Boswell-court, where it appeared that prisoner cohabited with a betting man named Holt. At the time Mr. Taylor's servant took the letter and parcel up to this room, Holt was in bed there, and the prisoner took it in. Holt, after reading the letter, said there was no answer ; it was all right. The next day, Mr. Taylor finding out the mistake which had been made, at once went to Old Boswell-court, and iouoil that the prisoner and Holt ha•.l decamped from their lodgings directly they had got their prize. Holt had not been found, but prisoner being met a few days ago by the police was taken into custody. She was acquitted. STRAND THEATRE. T_.r.s:t evening a dramatic version of Dickens's last work, Hard Times, was produced at this pretty little theatre with complete success. The adaptor has re tained all the points of the story, consequently it is rather too long; but after the curtailment which usually follows the representation of a new piece has taken place, we have no doubt the compression will add materially to that success. The part of Josiah Bounderby was sus tained by Mr. Barrett with much ability ; the same re mark will apply •to Mr. R. Romer's Gradgrind, Mr. Belford's Harthouse, and Mr. Sidney's Bitzer. We have reserved the part of Stephen Blackpool for special men tion ; it was represented by Mr. Herbert in a manner Lich proved that gentleman to be a finished actor. We now come to the female portion of the characters in the drama. The part of Sissy Jupc in the first act was beautifully sustained by little Eliza Edouin, and that of Louisa Gradgrind equally well by her sister Rose. In the second and following act Miss F. Beaumont and Miss H. Gordon fini,h the parts with great ability. We cannot help thinking that the adaptor has done an in justice to the character of Sissy. After the first act, with the exception of one scene in the last, we see nothing of her ; but what little there was to do Miss Beaumont did very prettily. Miss Hammond sustained the part of Melia with great pathos, and her delivery of the belu tiful sentiments with which the part abounds was loudly applauded. The piece was very excellently put upon the st tge, and was announced by Mr. Barrett for repeti tion every evening until further notice. The house was very fully attended. THE EARL OF RODEN .—The Earl of Roden arrived in Dublin from London on Friday night, and received a telegraphic message early on Saturday morning with the s ' d intelligence of the death of Lord Jocelyn, when his lordship immediately afterwards started for London. THZ COURTS-11ARTI AL AT WINDSOR. —The final deci sion in the case of Lieutenant Greer is not yet known, and there would appear to be some doubt entertained in the matter, as we understand that the whole of the members of the court-martial that sat upon his trial were yesterday summoned to London, to meet the authorities at the Horse Guards ; but what the object of the con -I,retice was, we ( Windsor Express) have not heard the . slightest surmise. NEW SURVEYOR OF MERCANTILE MARINE . —Lieut. Robert Robertson, who has for several years past had ti►e charge of the steam department afloat at Woolwich, ,tts been appointed, with the sanction of the Admiralty, Surveyor of the Mercantile Marine of this country under the Board of Trade. Trtm Posr OFFICE.—A. Committee apppointed by the Treasury, consisting of Lord Eloho, Sir S. Northeote, Sir C. Trevelyan, and Mr. lioffay, have just completed an inquiry into the establishment of the General Post (Met), and propose extensive alterations, or rather a re-arrangement of the department ; and, with one or two modifications, the Treasury have authorised the Pot:+tma,ter-General to talie steps to give effect to the recommendations of the Committee. In dealing with the Money Order-office, the report mentions that it originated so long ago as 1792, but that, though it was then sanctioned by the Postmaster-General, it was a private enterprise of three officers of the Inland-office, who hired premises near the post-office, and found the necessary capital, and were allowed to carry on the correspondence free of postage. They charged a per centage of Bd. in the pound, and made a profit of about 2401. a year each. It was not till 1838 that the Money Order-office was made an official establishment, and its produce appropriated to the revenue. Such has been its growth and progress, that the orders issued in 1853 were for 9,916,195/. The amount of revenue held by the Money Order-office has hitherto been considerable ; last Michaelmas it was 127,0001., but in March it had been gradually reduced to 55,0001. The average amount of outstanding orders is 95,0001., but the available cash is reduced by the remittances from the country being in bills, and the orders supplied to the Committee of Education (about 12,0001. every six weeks) are only paid for periodically. The amount of forfeited orders, which, together with the unclaimed property found in dead letters, may be about 1,2001. or 1,300/. a year, is appropriated to a fund for aiding officers of the Post-office to insure their lives. INQUEST AT STEPNET.—Yesterday Mr. Baker, the deputy-coroner for East Middlesex, held an inquest on the bodies of a young woman, apparently about 30 years of age, and a female child, who were found drowned in the Regent's-canal on Saturday last, near the Globe bridge, Mile-end-road. Mr. Rix, surgeon, deposed that there were no marks of violence on the bodies, and death had evidently been caused by drowning. A police-con stable stated that a full description of the mother and chill's dress had been forwarded to all the metropolitan police stations, but no clue had been discovered to the deceased's relatives. Other evidence having been ad duced, the jury returned an open verdict of "Found dead in the Regent's-canal, apparently drowned, without marks of violence, but how or by what means the bodies came into the water they had no legal evidence to show.' Mit. SMITH O'BniEN.—The Limerick Chronicle of Sa turday contains the following :—" The family of Mr. W. Smith O'Brien received a letter this week from that gen tleman, dated the last week in May, from Van Diemen's Land, when he was preparing to avail himself of her Majesty's gracious pardon, and to leave the colony for Europe. Mrs. Smith O'Brien and other relatives will meet the liberated exile at Brussels, where it is probable he will reside ; and we have the pleasure to inform his countrymen that Mr. O'Brien accepted with the best feelings hi, Sovereign's spontaneous clemency in remis sion of the penalty for a political offence." MR. C. G. D [IFFY, M. P.— Th e Wexford People con thins the subjoined extract of a letter from Mr. Duffy, p., addressed to the Rev. Thomas Doyle, of Arthurs town :—" I never spent any time with so much advan tage as in this experiment. It will, please God, enable me to do my work better in future, instead of quarter doing it. Since I came out of prison I have never had a day's good health. But I confidently reckon, from the imp;ovenent I have had already, upon going home as sound as new.' The primary condition of this case was rest—you cannot heal an over-worked brain more than a strained arm without putting it in a sling.—Always affectionately yours " C. G. D." MR. GARDEN.—It is stated by the Limerick .Chronicle that "the supersedeas dismissing Mr. Carden from the deputy-lieutenancy and magistracy of Tipperary will be forthwith issued." THE TAILORS' LABOUR AGENCY, NEWINGTON-CAUSE WAY.—This society affords a pleasing instance of the salutary effects of that cordial and intelligent under standing between the employer and employed which is, after all, the surest basis on which the welfare of the working classes can rest. One of the peculiarities of the establishment is, that by its means workmen are secured the maximum rate of wages for their labour. The chief object, however, of their uniting together was to main tain schools for their children, and to provide lectures, classes, library, and reading-room for their own mutual improvement. The popular lectures delivered in their elegant hall have already attracted much notice. The annual excursion of the members to the Rye House, Hertfordshire, took place on the 9th instant. Mr. Dunn, the principal of the establishment, his family, and various assistants, and the entire body of the workmen, number ing 150 persons, joined in the festivities of the day. Abundant provisions, combined with excellent arrange ments, contributed to the enjoyment of all. After the usual loyal toasts, " Success to the Tailors' Labour Agency" was drank in a bumper. Mr. Edwards, in proposing the health of Mr. Dunn, presented him with a valuable and elegant drawing-room time-piece, the spon taneous and honourable gift of his workmen, in appre ciation of the enlightened and persevering efforts he had made to promote their interests and improve their social condition. Mr. Dunn returned thanks for this unex pected testimony of their regard. The health of the teachers, who were warmly eulogised for their talents and energy, and other toasts, followed. The party re turned to town by special train. DEPARTURES FROM THE PORT OF LONDON.—T he de partures from the port of London for the Australian col to onies durin g th e week h ave compr i se d eight vessels two Sydney, etyo,withan Melbourne , with aggregate an aggregateburden o f l , burden t e o n n s o f ; twot ; t to Adelaid e , w i t h an aggregate b ur d e n of 1,249 970 tons ; and one to Swan River, of 384 tons.

The Copirte Zeitung's Correspondelvz has the following : The reinstatement of the Princes Ghika and Stirbey is now negotiating at Constantinople. General Hess has left for Suisana. Archduke Albrecht enters Moldavia immediately with the 9th army corps. Another division will enter Wallachia by the Rothenthurm pass. Austria agrees with the Western Powers upon the following guarantees, embodied in the note to St. Petersburg of the 11th : Abolition of Russian protectorate in the princi palities ; Declaration of independence of the orthodox Church in Turkey ; Unrestricted navigation of the whole line of the Danube ; Establishment of a free port on the Black Sea ; Revision of the old Russo-Turkish treaties. BUCHAP.EST, Aug. 10.—Tne Russian head-guar. ters are removed to Fokschan. The Turkish outposts have advanced to the Jalomnitza. F .rty squadrons have arrived at Fratcschti. Refugees are organising democratic clubs, actively inciting the Wallachians against the return of Stirbey. THE RUSSIAN FLEET BEFORE ODESSA. A telegraphic despatch, dated Vienna, yesterday evening, says : " According to letters from Odessa of the 4th, Admiral Nachimoff, with a great part of the Rus sian fleet, appeared on that day in sight of Odessa. " A steamer, which was sent into the harbour, stated that the fleet was to return to Sebastopol the same evening." SIR GEORGE BROWNE'S SURVEY OF THE RUSSIAN COAST. The following extract is from the memoranda of a gentleman who'' accompanied the reconnoitring squadron, which left Baltchik on the 22d ult.:— " 22d. Fleet in tow of steamers ; in the even ing cast off, the breeze freshening. " Sunday, 23d. Blowing fresh, but foul. " 24th. Ditto. " 25th. Taken in tow by steamers, and came directly in sight of Sebastopol ; all lights for bidden, not even the steamers allowed to silo w their lights. " Terrible, Fury, Descartes, and Highflyer, went in with Sir George Browne and staff, and others, to view the works of the town. Signal made to load guns and dowse bulkhead. " 20th. Close into Sebastopol, which is very like what appears in the Illustrated London News, and does certainly appear to be rather formidable. However, if we attack, we must take it. The Russian ships are admirably placed across the har bour; the forts are, however, so constructed that after the first round they would be so suffocated with smoke as to be unable to do anything. " When the steamers stood in this morning, some vessels inside got up stea to come out and attack them, but on perceiving the fleet three signal guns fired from the height stopped them. It would certainly please us very much to take the place. " 27th. General quarters, and reloaded guns. " 28th and 20th. Returning. " 30th. Rather rough ; anchored at Baltchik. " It is reported that a very good place for laud ing is found near Sebastopol, and preparations w ill imme‘hately be made fur attacking it with 100,000 soldiers." EXCHANGE OF NOTES BETWEEN AUS TRIA, FRANCE, AND ENGLAND. A letter from Vienna of the 10th, in the Moni tette, says :—" The exchange of the Notes agreed upon between the French and English Ministers at Vienna, and C•aint Buol, took place on the Bth with a certain degree of solemnity, and the news of the fact was promptly in eirculal ion, and pro duced a deep and fa,vourable impression. The official notification of the evacuation of the Prin• cipalities was scarcely made public, when it wars known that, iu consequence of this notification of the Russian Envoy, the Austrian Government had thought it right to contract a new bond with the Western Powers, by drawing up in common with them the preliminary conditions of any resumption of negotiations. The accord which is ratified by the Notes of the Bth August is regarded as the more solid and durable, as the four articles which form the basis of it sum up the interests which are certainly no less important -for Aus tria and Germany than for France and England. The reply of Omer Pacha to the last communica tions which Col. Kalik was charged to make to him, is only waited for before orders will be given to a corps d'armee to enter the Principalities, conform ably to the stipulations of the Austro-Turkish treaty. The Russians are continuing their retro grade movement ; the evacuation is still going on in Wallachia, and has commenced in Moldavia. Several regiments have already recrossed the Pruth. THE PRINCIPALITIES. A Vienna journal publishes the following as the text of the letter addressed to Prince Kantacuzene, President of the Council of Wallachia, to announce the withdrawal of the Russian troops. It is dated the 31st ult. con sequence of the concentration of the Im perial army, which is now taking place, the city of Bucharest is without Russian troops. In quitting this city, I deliver up the direction of public affairs to the Council of Administration. It will be careful to govern conscientiously and with zeal, conformably to the institutions of the country. As regards the district , which the Imperial army will continue to occupy, the administrative functionaries, and others, will perform their functions as hitherto, and take care to supply the troops with whatever they may want, according to the orders of the military chief, or those of the Varnick Floresko, who has been associated with me as special commissary since the entrance of the Russians into , Wallachia. In quitting the capital of this principality, it is agreeable to me to be able to express to the mem bers of the alministration, the persons in public office, and the population in general, my gratitude for the zeal which they have without distinction manifested to pro. vide for the wants of the Imperial army." The Press of Vienna says :—" The Turkish troops on the 6th occupied the post of the Mu nicipal Guard at Bucharest. Omer Pacha was expected on the 12th. Rimeck Effendi, tilt , Roman Catholic chief of the Miridites of Turkisis Albania, has arrived at Varna with a part of th , , , troops which he has raised." The same journal contains a letter from Cracow of the Bth, which says :—" The following is related in well-informed circles. The Russian Colonel Kowalewski arrived on the 6th by the train of Warsaw at the frontier station of Szezakowa, on his way to Vienna, but was refused by the police permission to enter the Austrian States. He at once sent a telegraphic despatch to Vienna asking for authorisation to con tinue his journey, but the reply was, to all appear ance, not satisfactory to the police, as they per sisted in their refusal. The Colonel was then obliged to return to Malzki. He there hired horses and proceeded to Wegizie, but he was there also refused permission to pass the frontier. He then stated his case to the military commandant of this place, who gave him permission to pass, yet, in spite of th a t perm i ss i on , the local authorities de clared th a t, i n v i rtue o f superior orders, they were obliged t o re f use hi s P assage' He then returned to Warsaw." RECONNOITRE OF SEBASTOPOL. The following has been received from Malta : The combined Anglo-French fleet, which left Baltchik on the morning the 21st of July to recon noitre Sebastopol, experienced on the 22d a heavy breeze from the northward. On the evening of the 2Gth the Terrible, Fury, and Cacique parted company, pushing on a-head, having on board Brigadi er -G enera l, Sir George Brown, General Canrobert, and several English and French offi cers ; and by the morning of the 27th these vessels, particularly the Fury, were so close into the Rus sian batteries that these sent a shot right through "her at the water line ; a second not so well directed, merely splashed a little spray over her and a third passed through her main rigging. shot was also sent through the rigging of the Terrible. The steamers and ships of the line in harbour showed signs of giving chase, but when they saw by what an overwhelming force the steamers were followed, they very prudently gave u p the idea. The 27th was a beautiful day, and the ships took advantage of it to go nearer than they had ever done before. From the observations then and there taken, it appears pretty clear that an army might be lauded either at Gape Loukoul which is fifteen miles to the northward of Sebasto- pol, or at the Katscha river, which is not more than six miles therefrom. At each of these points there is a break in the red perpendicular cliff which forms the coast line, and is about sixty feet high. The land immediately inside of this is flat, and almost unbroken, from Cape Loukoul, where its breadth may be about seven miles, down to the northern shore of the harbour, where it is not more than four miles. About midway between the two there is the little winding valley made by the KM ' Bella river, and towards the harbour there are trees scattered here and there. On this flat ground the army would get plenty of water from the Katscha, and their advance could be materially assisted by the steamers, which could go to within a quarter of a mile of the shore, and might keep up a terrific fire on anything on the plain within the range of their guns. The country inland beyond this plain does not rise very steeply until near the harbour, but there seem to be other more ele vated plateaux. The fort on the northern shore of the port, about a mile from the entrance, is the only difficulty for the troops ; for that once carried, the artillery would destroy the ships and town on the southern shore without difficulty. This important fortress seems regularly built, has (inns mounted, and a ditch surrounding it. The forts at the entrance to the harbour are most for- midable. The land near Cape Kherson is so low, and the ground between it and the town, inside the hays, so easy for troops to march over, that the Russians. have seen the necessity of placing no less than four encampments there to prevent an attack in that quarter. The number of troops under canvas must be full 25,000, and is in fact the only I,ody of troops visible. The fortifications of the town appear unimpor tant ; there is a wall running round it which is loopholed, but has no ditch, and it seems to have only one round battery on it. There is a good part of the hill on which the town stands unoccupied ; and if this were gained, the arsenal, forts, ships of war, &c., below, would be easily destroyed. The combined fleets returned to Baltchik on the 30th of :filly, and were still there on the Ist of August. Three shins of the line remain off Sebastopol, in honeq of enticing the enemy out. The public anxiety has been relieved in as far as regards the rumoured capture of the Sampson. It would seem that, though now safe, she has been in a very critical situation—on shore for no less than sixteen hours, on a rock at about a quarter of a mils front the land, l;etween Anapa and Soujak. Fortunately the Vauban was in company, and rendered her every possible assistance. It is not supposed that she has suffered much injury, but she has been sent to Constantinople to be examined and have some defects in her engines made good. The Furious and some other steamers are on the look-out for the Russian steamer of war, supposed to be the Vladimir, which recently ran into Koslov, took the coals out of two Turkish vessels, to which she afterwards set fire, and then towed out a third, to which she set fire at sea. The Agamemnon had left Baltchik for Constan tinople to bring up a number of gunboats and flat-bottomed boats, to be used in the lauding of troops and cavalry horses, which leads to a belief that the long talked of expedition is near at hand. The combined fleets are free from cholera, save a French troop steamer, whose crew is living on shore at Baltchik under tents, doing well, but there are many cases among the troops at Varna. Colonel the Hon. L. Maule, assistant adjutant-general, was among those suffering seriously therefrom. The master of the Britannia has been appointed acting-master of the fleet by Admiral Dundas, and Mr. Hockley to be acting master. . THE SCOTS GREYS AT MALTA. MALTA I Aug. B.—The Emperor steam-vessel left thief evening for Varna with 41 mules and 60 carts, and stores and provisions of all sorts for the fleet beside. We have the French frigate Montezuma, from Toulon, with 282 sailors for the fleet. The Panama has also come in from Toulon, with 300 sailors for the fleet; and the Albatross from Toulou with 299 sailors for the fleet. Both the Emperor and Cambria, which latter took out the 68th Regt., took a large number of Gozi-boats, which they tow astern, it is supposed to be used as gun-boats. They are large, and can be trusted to a great distance. They are often taken to Sicily, 60 miles from here. 'Lie heat has been intense in Malta these last few days, and we have had an immense number of cases of small pox and typhus fever; and a few, but very few. of - 1 01-ra. Th. Himalaya, with the. Scots Greys, arrived on the 3 , 1, after a very good passage of less than nine (lays from Liverpool. The ship had scarcely cast anchor here bA)re all that could get leave were on shore, I)oking hearty, and all fall of spirits. De spite the very great heat, '92 in the shade, they went everywhere to see what was to he seen. The visitors dined at 3 p.m , at Dunsford's Hotel, en• metsw, and invited Captain Hillock, of the Hima laya, to dine with them ; on• the Queen's health being drunk, the cheers could bo heard for a long way off. The Maltese, who are a smart race, seemed struck with the size and fresh appearance of both men and offi?ers, so very different to their own. They went in crowds on board to see the horses. The colonel's, 17 hands high, especially excited their admiration, and they all said what would the Russians say when they saw them. The colonel of the Greys is said to stand 6 feet .7 inches; he was followed through the streets as a wonder. During the voyage out neither man nor horse was sick, and truly they did credit to Old England. They were loud in their praise of Captain Hillock's treatment on board. About half-past six one of the men, J. Hutchin son, only 24 years of age, asked leaVe to bathe ; it was granted, and he, tempted by the extreme beauty of the sea (of which you can form no idea in Eng land), jumped in, and, we are sorry to say, was im mediately seized with cramp ; they did all they could to save him, but it was useless. About eight in the evening they weighed anchor ; and, as the whole city had been astir all day, it is not to be wondered at that a great many boats were out to ~e e them start ; among them four soldiers of the 62d were pulling themselves in one boat ; they knew but little of seamanship, but one of them was unfortunately in liquor. They steered directly under the Himalaya's bows, the boat was split in three pieces ; three soldiers were saved by a fishing boat, the fourth was drowned. Letters from the fleet say that the cholera has broken out on board the Sanspareil. General Brown had arrived at Con stantinople in the Agamemnon since his excursion to the coast of the Crimea. THE NEW KING OF SAXONY. We find the following iu a letter from Berlin of the 11th. The new King has a troubled vista be fore him, should lie bear out the character here g i v en :—The Court of Saxony is Roman Catholic, while the people is Protestant ; the present King is unfortunately an ultra-zealous abd bigoted mem ber of his Church, and is likely to take an active part in the rising that is now being got up by the Catholic episcopacy in Baden and Bavaria. His well-known ultra-aristocratic and absolutist incli nations have for many years made him 'extremely unpopular in Saxony, and led some ten years back to a demonstration of the populace against him in Leipsic, in which the lives of many citizens were sacrificed. His accession to the throne will, as he is a man of undoubted talents and energy, bring an accession of power and influence to the Bamberg politics of the minur States of Germany, at the head of which Prussia now stands." THE ATTACK ON THE ALAND ISLANDS. The Moniteur de l' Armee says of the expedition to the Aland Isles:— " Our expeditionary corps, destined probably to winter in the Alaud Islands, will find there subsistence easy and abundant. Without mentioning the provisions which the squadrons will leave them, the country itself will be able to supply them. According to Baron Sibnet, inhabitants live in comfort, their houses are kept with the greatest cleanliness, and are abundantly supplied with all the requisite necessaries of life. And this com fort is not derived solely from the products of the soil, though, in good seasons especially, their corn crops are abundant : they find still greater resources in fishing and hunting, which even the rigour of the climate cannot de prive them of. The larger islands contain lakes and numerous rivers ; these lakes and rivers, and all the sea coast, abound with fish. The fresh water is full of trout, salmon, and perch. The sea furnishes a prodigious quantity of fish of all kinds, and particularly a species of herring, the greater part of which is sold. Game is also in abundance, although continually destroyed by the inhabitants or by the wolves, which every winter cross over in droves on the ice from Russia. The in habitants pay great attention to the breeding of cattle ; they have extensive pasturages, rich and savoury, espe cially along the coast. Their oxen, of small size it is true, bring them a considerable income. They export fresh fish, dried or salted, butter and cheese of a very good description, so that we may safely, say our troops will have nothing to fear from famine or scarcity. Will they be exposed to dangers of another description ? Will the Russians attempt to dislodge them by crossing the ice over this arm of the sea ? No doubt, in very severe winters the straif ; that separate the Archipelago from the shores of the continent are covered for severalanonths with a thick coat of ice, and one can easily go on foot from St. Peters. burg to Stockholm. There is no doubt but that armies have traversed the Baltic with tho heaviest artillery, and have encamped upon the ice, where there bivouac fires were lighted with as great safety as on terra firma. We have not forgotten the exploits of the intrepid Charles Gustavus, who, at the head of his army, with cavalry and artillery, crossed the Sound in 1658 to carry the war into the heart of Denmark. We can even mention facts of more recent date. In February, 1809, the Russians marched front Atm, on the ice, to take pos , e , sion of the Aland I-lands. There is no question about it, but all winters are not alike for intensity of cold. It is a re markable fact that the climate, more temperate in the Aland Archipelago than in Sweden and Finland, is generally very mild, considering the latitude, and, what is still more remarkable, it is very healthy and favour. I ble to the preservation of human life. The snow melts early in the season, and the harbours are frozen over very late on account of the rapid currents formed by the waters of the Gulfs of Finland and Bothnia. " On the other hand, if the ice placed us in a danger ous position with respect to Russia, it would also greatly facilitate all supplies coming from Sweden. " Finally, when in our possession, the fortifications of the Aland Archipelago would shortly be placed in such a state by our engineer officers that they could resist any attack, and if some of our ships winter, which is very possible, in the ice, they will form round our camp a cordon of impregnable fortresses. " Therefcre, the Aland Islands will be taken if our generals attack them, and of course will be kept when taken. Our readers will easily appreciate the immense advantages of the first conquest fur our next campaign in the Baltic." NAPIER AND THE ALANDERS.--A. letter from Copen hagen states that Admiral Napier has issued the severest orders to the whole squadron to treat the Aland pea santry in the most friendly manner, not to deprive any one of his property, and to pay the full value of what ever may be required. The poor peasantry have hitherto refused to accept payment for what has been asked of them, for fear of being sent to Siberia, with which pun ishment the authorities have threatened them. A tariff has therefore been Axed by the commanders, so high as far to surpass the utmost price that could be asked. The articles needed are now taken, and the money left in exchange according to the tariff. FR A.NCE. The Moniteur of to-day (Tuesday) announces that the Emperor has granted, on the occasion of his fete, 2,582 pardons, or reductions of punish- ment. These pardons are thus apportioned :- 805• to those sentenced to deportation. 774 to those detained in the Bagnes, or pen& establishments, of Guiana and other colonies. 1,003 to soldiers or sailors undergoing imprison• 'neut. The Moniteur also announces that the landing of the expeditionary corps to the Baltic took place on the Bth of August, •at 3 a.m., at two points of the Island of Lumpar, near Bomarsund. A battery of five guns was destroyed by the Phlegethon (French) and Amphion (English) steamers. As the land force marched along the heights towards the forts, 3,000 French and English marines landed on the island without opposition. Three ships of war were attacking the forts which command Bomarsund. A military spectacle has always irresistible at tractions for the people of Paris, and the events that are passing in the East have not diminished those military tastes. Whenever the blast of a trumpet or the beat of a drum is heard, it is sure to be followed by crowds of all ages ; and the review announced for yesterday iu honour of the fete, which now seems to be a national one, sum moned people from all quarters of Paris. So early as nine o'clock crowds were seen repairing to the Champs Elysees and the Avenue of Neuilly, and in half an hour afterwards the troops were formed in a single lin6 along the whole .length of that noble sweep of ground. They occupi©d the en tire space from the entrance of the Avenue de Neuilly and the Champs Elysees, with their right resting on the Place de la Concorde, their left near the Porte Maillot in the Avenue of Neuilly, and their back to the river. At 10 o'clock precisely Marshal Magnan issued from his quarters in the Place Vendome, followed by a brilliant staff, and proceeded to the Champs Elysees. General Magnan was in full uniform of a Marshal of France. On reaching the place de la Concorde • he rode slowly in front of the line, and returned at full gallop as far as the Champs Elysees. The line then broke up into columns for the defile, which, it was generally admitted, was executed with remarkable precision. The in fantry marched by divisions at whole distance, the cavalry by sections, (the ground encum bered with preparations for the fête not admitting of squadrons), and the artillery by half-batteries. During the defile a heavy shower of rain fell, but it soon passed away, and the review was no longer in terrupted by the weather. The new Imperial Guard, the regiment of Gendarmerie and the 3-uides did not - form part of the pageant. The clothing and appointments of the new corps are uot, it appears, as yet entirely completed, and their first inspection is no doubt reserved for the Emperor in person. According as each br gade defiled before the Marshal and his staff it proceeded to its quarters without any delay, so that the ground was not much encumbered. The review was at 12 o'clock. The excellent ap pearance of the troops was all the more remarkable that several regiments of infantry had in their ranks many young men of the late contingents, who have been rapidly turned into soldiers, with the air and deportment of veterans. There were about 26,000 or 23,000 troops on the ground. Among the staff of Marshal Magnan were observed several foreign officers, the most remarkable being the young Prince Stirbey, sou of the Hospodar of Wallachia, who wore the Wallachian uniform, and who is attached to one of the regiments of Cara biniers at Versailles ; and M. Bonaparte (the Ame rican), grandson of the ex-King Jerome. At half past 12 o'clock Marshal Magnan had returned to his quarters in the Place Vendome. The resolution of the Emperor of the French to absent himself from his own fête to-day (Tuesday) has been much commented on in Paris, and a num ber of ill-natured remarks have been made on the subject. It is certain that in the markets and other places where the working classes come to gether, great dissatisfaction has been expressed at the fact of the head of the State inviting the people to his fete, and then not once deigning to come for ward during the day to acknowledge their presence. Various reasons have been assigned for the absence of the Emperor on this occasion, and even a dread of the cholera has been assigned ; but the real rea son is a wish to remain at present with the Empress, whose health is beginning to derive more decided benefit than previously from . her visit to the south. But be that as it may, the fete will no doubt take place with as much eclat as if his Majesty were pre sent ; and as the weather is delightful, everything leads to the belief that it will pass off most favour ably. The Emperor, says the Progres de Pas-de-Calais, ie expected to stop at Boulogne-sur-Mer for several weeks. The hotel hired for him is at Capecure, and has been taken from the 20th August to the 2 , 1 October. The price to be paid for it is 42,500 f. The same journal states that the King of Portugal, the King of the Belgians, and Prince Albert, are expected to visit his Majesty, to be present at some grand military manoeuvres which arc to take place from the 15th to the 20th September. Seven columns of the Moniteur are filled with appointments and promotions in the Legion of Honour, of Prefects, Sub-Prefects, Mayors, and other civil functionaries and officers of different ranks and privates in the army and the gendarmerie. There also three columns with the names of soldiers and gendarmes who are to receive Military Medals. When the Baltic fleet was being fitted out at Cherbourg, a certain number of sailors aged more than 40 were taken; but most of them being fathers of families were reserved for the service of station and coast-guard vessels. The or linary levy of men of from 20 to 40 years of age having since largely provided for all wants, the Minister of War has ordered that sailors more than 40 shall be dis charged. We expected to find in the Paris journals some remarks on the speech of the Queen of England on proroguing the Parliament, but with one excep tion there is nothing in the way of comment. The Siecle expresses disappointment that the speech contains no thing to dissipate the anxiety that is felt as to the intntions of Germany, and thinkA it is quite time that England and France should in sist on a positive declaration on this point. It says : " The speech certainly contains important and curious revelations, but it does not dissipate the uncertainty which hangs over German policy, and, in order to mea sure the exact bearing of it, it must be compared with the documents published by the Moniteur. We have no wish to indulge in repetitions, but we must be again permitted to say that the Governments of France and England have the right and duty of demanding from Austria a co-operation which leaves no room for doubt —an active and sincere co-operation." In several of the journals there is no leading article. Others treat on subjects which are with out public interest. The Three per Cents. opened yesterday at 73f. 15c., fell to 72f. 60c., and closed at 72f. 75c. for the end of the month ; the Four-and-a-Half per Cents. closed at 99f. 25c. ; and the New Loan at 72f. 60c. ; Orleans Raiway Shares, 1,190 f. ; Rouen, 985 f.; Havre, 570 f.; Great Northern, 837 f. 50c. ; Strasburg, 783 f. 75c. ; New Shares, 622 f. 50c. ; Paris and Lyon s , 956 f. 25 c . ; L yons to the Medi terranean 855 f. ; Western of France, 650 f. ; Bor deaux and Cette, 622 f. 50c. ; Great Central of France, 500 f. ; Lyons and Geneva, 505 f.; Bank of Credit Mobilier, 707. 50c. SPAIN. The following has been received from Madrid, dated August 14 : " A decree for the constitution of the Constituent Cortes, published to-day, declares that the dynastic ques tion Call be discu s . e d on ly in a single (Malian' " The Gazette of Madrid, of the 9th, publishes a circular from the Minister of the Interior to the governors of the provinces, informing them that the civil guard must, immediately on its re-estals lishment, be employed on its former posts, or in any other way that may be convenient to protect life and property. Another circular of the Minis ter to.the same governors directs that the law for assisting the poor, and the regulations relative thereto, are to continue to be executed. M. Aguine has been nominated Under Secretary of State of the department of Grace and Justice. The Espana says that the elections for the Constituent Cortes are not to take place according to the laws of 1837 and 1846, but according to a decree to be issued by the government. The property qualification is, it says, to be reduced, in order to increase the number of electors. The same journal, contradicting one of its con.- temporaries, says poitively that the Duke de Sotomayor has accepted the post of Majordomo of - the Palace. The liberal journalists of the capital were about to celebrate the triumph of their cause by a grand banquet. Generals Dulce and Eohague had arrived in Madrid, and their division was expected in two or three days. The Diario says that the Minister of Foreign Affairs, in reply to a question of a commission 9f the Junta, had declared that Victor Hugo, or any other political exile whose conduct should not inspire legitimate suspicion to the governments Of allied and friendly nations, should be allowed to enter Spain. According to the Tribuno, Queen Christina if; to reside at Segovia or Toledo until the opening of the Cortes. It was reported that the Minister of Finance intends to abolish the duty on salt, and to suppress the octroi duties. The chiefs of the barricades, says the Clamor, have resolved to have a petition to the Cortes drawn up, praying that a residence may be as signed to Queen Christina. The Espana says that wheat, barley, and other crops will be very abun- dant. A letter from Perpignan, 12th, in the Moniteur, says :—" The battalion of Tarragona, quartered. at - Sarria, a faubourg of Barcelona, broke out into fresh insubordination on the evening of the 9th. A considerable force was immediately sent to the spot, and two of the most mutinous were arrested, tried, and shot immediately. On the following day all the battalion, with the exception of ono company, was disarmed. The soldiers are about to be sent to the colonies, and the officers to Madrid. Two workmen, who were detected en deavouring to:persua lo others to leave their work, were arrested by their comrades and given uP to the authorities. They were tried by the military commission and condemned to death, but General Concha afterwards yielded to the tears and entree.- ties of their mothers, and pardoned them. Bar celona, is tranquil, but the greater part of the shoP s are closed, and the streets are deserted." pn A letter from Barcelona of the 7th says :—" Friday, the 4th, a mutiny broke out in the de; tachmentof mountain artillery, and a battalion f: infantry took part in the disorder.
