EOLIAN VENTILATOR HAT, (6 AND 7 VIC.. CAP. 65). LONDON, 31ST OCTOBER. 1853. The want of a properly Ventilated and Easy-fitting Hat, particulvrlv since the introduction of the Silk Hats into general an, has given rise to many seeming i m provements. The Inventors and Patentees of the EOLIAN VENTILATOR HAT have succeeded on the correct principle of Ventilation, by forming an Air Channel immediately around the head, permitting a current of air to pass from thence through and out at the top of the Hat; an d th e design may be applied to every variety of shape worn, without infringing t he li g ht appearance so necessary to a becomin g Hat.—See Practical Mechanics' Journal, lst August, J 833, (late of Provisional Protection). - In directing attenti , n to this ne w and very desirable Spring and Summer Hat we respectfully invite an inspection, when its utility will be most apparent. and its general style best understood.

ELEGANT PERSONAL REQUISITES.- Under the patronage of Royalty and the Aristocracy throughout Europe, arid universally preferred and esteemed. The successful results of the last half century have proved beyond question that ROWLANDS' MACASSAR OIL pos sesses singularly nourishing powers in the growth, r.astoration, and improvement of the Human Hair, and when every other specific has failed. This celebrated Oil is now universally acknowledged to he the cheapest, and superior to all other preparations for the Hair. It prevents it from falling off or turning grey—strengthens weak hair—cleanses it from scurf and dandriff—and makes it beautifully, soft, curly, and glossy. Its operation in cases of baldness is peculiarly active; and in the growth of the beard, whiskers, eyebrows, and mustachios it is unfailing in its stimulative operation. For Children it is especia ly recommended, as forming the basis of a beauti ful head of hair. In dressing the hair nothing can equal its effect, rendering it so admirably soft that it will lie in any direction, and imparting a transcenclant lustre. Price 3a. 6d. and Is.

Freckles, tan, pimples, spots, discoloration and other cutaneous visitations are era dicated by the RALTOR, and give place to a radiant bloom and transparency of complexion.

Locock's Wafers, which, from the commencement, eased her cough, and by continuing them she is perfectly cured. THOMAS DEAN.

NICHOLAS CUTPITESE is the designation by which the future historian of Europe will most appro priately distinguish •the celebrated dealer in parole de gentilhomme on the banks of the Neva from Potentates of less predatory habits, and from rogues and vagabonds of lesser note. Much as the Czar has of late damaged his reputation by his crooked and treacherous policy, we were not prepared to see him demolish what little character he had left, by an act of vulgar robbery, which, if the offence had been committed in the county of Middlesex, would have procured for 'him a couple of years of im prisonment with hard labour, besides an indignant homily from Mr. Serjeant Adams. It was a sufficiently disgraceful fact, that where as the Governments of England and France accompanied their declaration of war with a grant of protection to the enemy's merchant vessels for the space of six weeks, the Russian government, on the very instant that war was declared, seized, pillaged and burnt whatever English merchant vessels it could lay its hands on. The difference of conduct, in this respect, betwen the two belligerent parties indicates with tolerable accuracy the contrast between that barbarism of which Russia is the re presentative, and the civilisation of which England and France are the champions. But the detention of the property left behind at St. Petersburg by the British Ambassador under the supposed guarantee of the law of nations, is a proceeding out of all keeping, wholly inconsistent with a position among civilized nations. We doubt whether even our sable friends the Kaffirs would have been so ignorant or so regardless of the respect due to the property of an Ambassador, as to have been guilty of an act of petty larceny upon his effects. Indignation, however, on such an escapade of Imperial savagery would be altogether thrown away. It will make a capital subject for the pencil of our facetious weekly contemporary, who, among all the extravagant aspects in which he has exhibited His Imperial Majesty, has never hit upon anything half as ludicrous as the reality. A house breaker effecting a robbery by means of a fictitious seizure, is all very well ; but an Emperor—faugh ! The Treasury, as a matter of course, will have to indemnify Sir Hamilton Seymour, and it will be a rare joke to have among the miscellaneous estimates an item in the shape and fashion of a broker's bill, for crockery and china, damask table linen and Irish sheeting, books and articles of vertu, feloniously abstracted from His Excellency the British Ambas sador at St. Petersburg by his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of all the Russias. What a theme for the eloquence of Mr. Roebuck, and the arithmetic of Mr. Hume ! The Earls of Aberdeen and of Clarendon cannot fail to be gratified, we should think, by this fresh proof of the singular discernment which they have shown in placing such implicit reliance on the friendly assurances and the peaceful disposition of the Czar. The Noble Premier, more especially, must feel that he has reason to be proud of his old acquaintance, and of the confidence with which the Czar reckoned on his banitortmie, when speculating on "the sick man's" inheritance. For his Lord ship's rake we hope that Sir Charles Napier will continue to keep the Russian squadrons within the Belts ; else we should not be surprised to hear of a descent upon the coast of Aberdeenshire, and of a military occupation of Haddo House, by way of a " material guarantee" for the continuance of the forty years' friendship between the pusillanimous Premier and the magnanimous Czar.—.Tohn Bull. ONE OF THE PREMIER'S 41`SLEEPLESS NIGHTS." (FROM "THE rumss.") [Lord Aberdeen is discovered in bed, a night-lamp beside him. Hour, midnight. Newpapers on a table near him. Lord ABERDEEN. It will not be. The more I try to sleep The more I can't. I turned, and turned, and turned, After a fashion Graham's self might envy, Yet not a weazel is more wide-awake, Or that same Graham. One more chance I'll try, And if it fail— as yet it never did — Why, then—l'll see what next is to be done, For, when I stoop to own that I'm defeated, Look out for squalls, indeed! Ay, here's the drug. [Takes up a number of the Economist, and is gra dually soothed into slumber. Thanks—gentle—colleague—thou—art— ever—true. Thou man—of hats—l'll owe—this—nap to thee. [He sleeps. The door flies open, and a young lady, in a helmet, short tunic, fleshings, and sandals, and armed with a silver spear, enters. YOUNG LADY. What ho ! Lord Aberdeen ! Lord ABERDEEN. My gracious me ! How came you in ? I'll swear —no, I won't swear — But I was certain that the door was locked. YOUNG LADY. No locks are worth a straw against a Saint. Lord ABERDEEN. True—Gladstone robs the Bank most awfully. But who are you? The costume which you wear Smacks of the stage far more than of the Saint, And—or my eyes deceive me—you're a lady. If so, yon must permit me to remark Your nether garb—l might say, lack of garb— Is really almost indefensible. YOUNG LADY. I do not stand on trifles. Lord ABERDEEN. So I see. They are well shaped. YOUNG LADY. I know it. But, my lord, The question is not of my legs, but business. I am Saint George, the Patron Saint of England, A trifle modernised, to suit the age, But you're a Minister of progress. Lord ABERDEEN. Ay, I have said so more than once. Well, handsome Saint, I recognise you, and that graceful dress Is copied from the die ST. GEORGE. Never say die! Lord ABERDEEN. Pert as our age. Then copied from the coin Which bears that typical device no more, Was hung therefor—how you were made a martyr, And champion of the faith. is your own business. But why are you so earnest for the Turk ? ST. GEORGE. The fiction's worthy of the mind that sees, In Nicholas an honourable man. But I stand here for England, and my name Is on her banner. Keep your graceful jests To lead, as you have said, the House away, When, short of argument, you try a grin. Lord ABERDEEN. It strikes me you are something less than civil. ST. GEORGE. It may be so ; but ere this year is out You will have heard some harder truths than that,. When every other man is dressed in mourning, For one of those who have gone out to die, " Where but for you this strife had never been." Lord ABERDEEN. What would you have me do ? ST. GEORGE. At least not this. You've plunged us in a war, which you deplore, As I believe, sincerely—yes—but why You do deplore it is a matter patent. Your friend of forty years —your trusted friend,: Who sends such gracious messages—whose joy When you, his tool, are once again in office, Eiceeds decorum—he, whose work you've done Both in and out of season, and whose aim You vindicate—that friend is now assailed; His capitals ere long will hear the roar Of cannon, loaded, primed, and laid by you. I do believe that you deplore this war. Lord ABERDEEN. And I could stop it at this very moment. ST. GEORGE. We all know that, and also on what terms. But England's honour is in better hands ; Beware how you would touch it, lest, one day, She take it in her own—and likewise you. That were a day, indeed, of shortest shrifts. Lord ABERDEEN. Shrift me no shrifts. lam a Protestant. ST. GEORGE. And therefore champion of the gentle prince Who crushes every liberty of conscience, And whose fierce creed consigns yourself to flames. Lord ABERDEEN. • Those are his errors—l have told him of them, In that mild language whioh is suited best For men's conversion—and, Perhaps, some day My hints may prove not utterly in vain. ST. GEORGE. Uphold him to the last. The sternest wish. Which I will waste on you, Lord Aberdeen, Is that some day, after the fleets have met, You may be placed within your dear friend's reach. I have a dragon here, but he is mild To what your friend will be when he shall learn Your war has sent some of his ships to atoms. Lord ABERDEEN. Horrible thought ! ST. GEORGE. Yet, is there not a worse That haunts you now ? Lord ABERDEEN. I beg you'll give it a name. ST. GEORGE. 'Twill pack within a single pregnant word Which will be forced upon you—it may be Before a month has past. Lord ABERDEEN. The word ! the word ! ST. GEORGE. Or do you think that England means to bear Your cold, half-hearted councils, and the sense That you must grudge her all her victories ? Lord ABERDEEN. The word ! I say ! Sr. GEORGE. The word is RESIGNATION. [Lord Aberdeen utters a great shout of defiance, and providentially wakes himself. FOREIGN AND COLONIAL. FRANCE. Intelligence has been received in Paris that the fleet under Admiral Parseval-Deschenes sailed on Wednesday from Brest, for the Baltic, to join the English squadron under Admiral Napier. HANOVER. The government goes most decidedly with England, and therefore is ready to support Austria against Prussia, should the Eastern question come before the Federal Diet. All the secondary and minor German governments, except Bavaria, are of the same mind, and will bring the subject before the Diet, should not Prussia shortly agree to abandon its neutrality. DENMARK. And spoils the joke which did translate the motto, Corolla metuenda est draconis. ST. GEORGE. Translated, how ? Lord ABERDERN. By Hook, or else Mag,inn, Mad wags—they read it thus—" I fear I can't Collar the dragons," meaning, get the cash. Excuse my pun, I've taken to it lately; And with my humour do convulse the Peers To take their minds off from the thought of war. ST. GEORGE. 'Tis of that war which I do come to speak. My friend, St. Nicholas, as you have read, Has been in dreams appearing to your friend, The Russian Czar, for his encouragement, And so I thought that I would call on you, Upon the self-same errand. Lord ABERDEEN (ofended)• Much obliged. But if St. Andrew had assumed the mission, All things considered, it had been as proper. ST. GEORGE. You've crossed St. Andrew, and St. Andrew's cross. You scorned the appeal of good Lord Eglinton. Lord ABERDEEN. Well, what's your business ? ST. GEORGE. As I said, the war. This war which you, my lord, have brought about, You, and you only—and which, being in, You dread should be conducted valiantly. Lord ABERDEEN. I brought about ! You have not read my speeches. ST. GEORGE. I've read your acts ; and so, my lord, has England. And though she pour her blood and treasure out — The first like water, and the last like dirt — To blast the foe whom you have called to combat, She debits you with every drop of blood And every coin of gold. Lord ABERDEEN. And I deny My liability. I did my best To save her from this war. She had been saved Had England's Senate all been Aberdeen. ST. GEORGE. And Turkey, under some Prince Turkeywitch, Had ranked a Russian province. Lord ABERDEEN. And why not P You were, they say, a Cappadocian baker, Who, ,cheating soldiers of their lawful loaves, The Copenhagen correspondent of the Morning Chronicle, writing on the 9th, says :—" I cannot, of course, give you the verba ipsissinza used by Admiral Napier on his visit to the King, which was both long and pleasant. But I shall not be far wrong if I assure you that it was a most important interview, in the course of which he asked, on behalf of England and France, considerable modifica tions in the evidently untenable position of Denmark as to its passive neutrality. While acknowledging that the refusal to declare coals " contraband of war" had excited the most friendly feelings, he gave it as his opinion that the time was now come when the whole neutrality must be considerably modified. It is said that the gallant admiral will make a similar declaration to the King of Sweden." , s .:, 7.;_: 411 lAiiiinliotilitioil . lIIMMIIIII ' ,t.i.., ;C '" -7 -- - 11,61 ,1, ; $4..i , ~ I 1 - - :---,-..:-,- - • 1 iii , ' .•••11 ir . - 1 1 1 , , . . , d i . i 1 •'sl ..5, , , ;A, ' 1 -.., •r.s , 1-,1 4.1 -.4. -is, , . 1 '',ll ..,,,- ~ ! t i --'1"1 ' ' ' d i .

The following particulars have been received from Berlin, in confirmation of the statement that Austria has rejected the Prussian conditions to the treaty of alliance: Colonel Ruff has returned from Vienna, bringing a refusal to accept the clause which Prussia proposes to insert in the convention recently agreed to. This clause is formally rejected by the Austrian government. It is understood, that whereas an important article of the convention sti pulates that iu the event of one of the contracting parties finding itself at war the other shall come to its succour, Prussia wishes to add a special clause, more or less secret, to the effect that war must 'always be concerted between the two parties. The action of the one would thus depend on the consent of the other, and, therefore, if Prussia so chose, she might neutralise the intentions of Austria, and prevent her from making war upon Russia. Austria will not yield to this, and it is expected that the fear ofisola tion will at length overcome the last scruples of Prussia, and induce her to ratify the convention as at first set forth. RUSSIA. A Te Deum was chanted on the 3d instant, in the Winter Palace, to celebrate the passage of the Danube. A letter from St. Petersburgh of the 31st ult., says : " The movements of troops continue in the Baltic pro vinces and in Finland. Whilst the guards were setting out on their march, the battalion of chasseurs of the re serve of Moscow, and the battalion of sharp-shooters of Helsingfors were arriving here. The Emperor reviews the troops as they arrive." SECRET CoitnEspowninces.—The Gotha Gazette pub lishes the following singular communication :—" Several newspapers have circulated the report that, before long, there will appear at St. Petersburgh a secret correspond ence, carried on without the knowledge of the English Government between the Courts of England and Russia, and which would seriously compromise Prince Albert. We are authorised to announce respecting this correspond ence, that the English Court awaits the publication of it with an interest so much the greater, inasmuch as on the part of England it is confined to the usual notifications of births, &c." EGYPT. A portion of the Egyptian railway has been used for the the first time in the conveyance of the passengers from India, who came from the Nile to the canal, near Alexandria, about 50 miles. Lord Harris, the new governor of Madras, arrived at Alexandria, on the 2d inst., by the Austrian steamer from Trieste, and left at once for his seat of government. On the 29th ult., eight Egyptian and Turkish steamers left Alexandria, with 9,000 Egyptian troops, placed by Abbas Pasha at the disposal of the Sultan. The Viceroy of Egypt, besides 30,000 men, has sent large sums of money and a quantity of muskets for the prosecution of the war. A great number of vessels having come to Alexandria, freights have fallen to 4s. per quarter, and the highest offer now made is 2s. 6d. per quarter. This arises from the scarcity of shipping stuff, as Abbas Pasha, notwith standing that he holds immense stocks of grain of all des criptions, and cotton, will not sell, from some whim of his own. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE PACIFIC. By the United States Mail steam-ship Pacific, which arrived here on Friday morning, with 164 passengers, we have intelligence from New York to the 2nd inst. The Canada, hence, arrived at Boston on the 31st ult. There was no account of the City of Glasgow having arrived at Philadelphia. She was then thirty-two days out from this port. The Boston papers state that a large propeller was seen on the 30th of March, ashore on the Hedge Fence shoal, Vineyard Sound, The prohibitory liquor bill has been killed in the senate by a majority of one vote. The settlement of the outrage upon the steamer Black Warrior by the Spanish autho rities at Cuba, is likely to be embarrassed by-the contents of despatches received by the government. It is likely that the Gadsden treaty will be thrown overboard. A. fatal accident had happened on the Hudson River Rail way. A large mass of rock fell from an eminence on to the track, and the train ran into it with full force. revailed in the States on the day pre- Several of the railway servants were injured, and two of them died• s sailing, which put an entire stop to v th ioA e u t s e h l te e7 h ap es h tP i o c uirni cimunication with New Orleans. Nearly every class of artizans at New York were "on strike" for higher wages. The dock cartmen of Brooklyn demand three dollars per day (about 12s. Gd.) They now receive two dollars. Arrangements have been made for the con veyance of a monthly mail between New York and Aus tralia. The first mail will be despatched on the 25th.— Business was exceedingly dull. Stocks very much de pressed. Flour was inanimate, with sales of common State brands at $7. Corn closed at 77 to 80 cents. Wheat was quiet. Pork was inactive at $l5 for mess, and $l2 25e. to $l2 37c. for prime. There was some movement in beef, and about 1,000 barrels Chicago, repacked, were sold, part at $l5. Cotton closed at ct. cwt. decline for the week QII low grades. THE BRAZILS. By the steam-ship Severn, which arrived on Sunday, we have five days' later intelligence. From Buenos Ayres we learn that everything was quiet, and that the inhabitants seemed confident in the continu ation of peace. Exchange was quoted at 655. to 655. Od. per ounce. . . At Monte Video everything was quiet. Exchange, 41s to the current dollar. At Rio de Janeiro business had been, since the 6th of the month, extremely restricted. The arrivals in imports had been unimportant, except in flour, piece goods, and salt. Wines had realised extravagantly high prices. In the money market business in discounts was very limited and rates unaltered. Exchange rather firmer; bills at 27:i at 60 and 90 days, and business having occurred at 28 at 90 days. At Pernambuco, business of the past month has been far from satisfactory. Of imports, sales have been of a fair character, so far as regards articles of daily consump tion, which are commanding high prices ; but for dry goods the inquiry is very limited, and but few manufac tures will command saving rates. At Bahia, in exports, sugar for the Swedish market was inquired after. In cotton, exporters were altogether out of the market, the high prices paid by the manufacturers of the province being far above any limits from Europe. In coffee, the crop may be considered as ended. At Valparaiso the demand for shipping continued, and freights were advancing. Freights to Liverpool, 10s. to 12s. 6d. WEST INDIES. By the steamer La Plata, we have intelligence from Barbadoes and Jamaica to the 27th ult., and St. Thomas, April 2nd. At St. Thomas's all healthy. At Jamaica there was a great want of shipping, cargoes were all ready, but no tonnage to take them away. Commodore Ander son had received despatches from the exploring expedition on the Isthmus of Darien, which states that the American party from the United States sloop Cyane had not been seen or heard of, and there was every reason to believe they had been murdered by the Indians, The House of Assembly was as unpopular as ever. Cholera bad almost disappeared. Want of rain was much felt in the island. The Carlisle estate had been destroyed by fire. In the market, the prices of all imported goods were upheld be yond the views of speculators, and stocks generally were so incorrigible as to give no hopes of an immediate decline. The operations in flour were of a restricted character, in consequence of the high prices and the small stock. The stock was rather heavy in sugar. Exchange on London at the Colonial and Jamaica Banks, quoted at 60 days, per cent. premium. The royal mail steam-ship Atrato arrived at St. Thomas's on the 30th ultimo. INDIA. Advices are from Calcutta, 6th ; Madras, 11th ; and Bom bay, 14th March. _ _ The Times Bombay correspondent writes :--" The last fortnight has been unusually barren of incident, but the little news there is is good. The north-west frontier is quieter than it has been for years, and the Delhi Gazette of the 22d of Feb. states that Dost Mahomed has sent Jubbar Khan as envoy to Major Edwardes, commissioner of Peshawur, to beg that bygones be bygones, that the past should be fo - given, and to declare his readiness to join us against the Russians, Persians, and all other comers." The news from Burmah is not of so favourable a cha racter. An insurrection has broken out in the province of Bassein, which has hitherto been the only quiet portion of our Burmese acquisitions. Fighting is going on in the Persian . Gulf between the troops of the Shah and the chiefs of Abbas Bunder. The cotton crop in Bera is expected to be a failure. Pegu is again in a disturbed state. Owing to the native holidays, the general and money market is low and dull. At Calcutta, on the 4th ult., the cotton piece goods market was dull, except for some articles. Money was somewhat less easy. Freights further advanced. At Bombay trade was dull, and business limited. Freights slightly advanced. CHINA. We have advices by the Overland Mail, from Hong Kong to the 15th of February, with the important in telligence of the apparent success of the Russian Admiral in negotiating for the opening of Japan to all nations. The Russian screw-steamer Vostock had arrived at Shanghai from Nagasaki on the 10th of February, and left again for that place on the 11th. She brought the news that the Emperor of Japan had consented to negotiate, and had sent high ministers to treat with the Russian Admiral, and had given him a great dinner at Nagasaki. They have positively announced to him (such is the language used ) ) that they intend to " open up," but require time to prepare. The American squadron had not arrived at Nagasaki when the Vostock left on the 3a of February. The Ameri can store-ship Supply had arrived at Woosung from Loo choo, but nothing further had transpired. Pekin Gazettes, down to the 13th of January, have been received, but offer nothing of interest. The insur gents, it appears, have evacuated Tan-Chau, on the north entrance of the Grand Canal, and the Imperialists have taken possession of it, which is considered a great victory. At Shanghai a Custom-house has been re-established, close to the foreign ground, and recognised by the repre sentatives of the three Treaty Powers, and the Taoutae expects to maintain the position. At Canton trade is going on much as usual, and the teamen preparing to go into the tea district for next season, and for manufactured goods the markets are look ing in a healthy state. Exchange on England is down to 4s. 10d. ; on India, 230 rs. Sir George Bonham proceeded on the 18th instant in her Majesty's steamer Encounter on a visit to Shanghai and the Southern ports. Admiral Pellew promptly sent out her Majesty's steamer Barracouta on the 15th instant against a small fleet of pirates, which succeeded in taking six boats and several of the gang, who have been handed over to the Chinese authorities. THE WAR. TITE following is an extract of a letter dated Galatz, March 30:—" Nothing precise is known about the war operations on this side of the Danube. All vessels in Sulina have been sequestrated by the Russian Govern ment, and the mouth is barricaded by two strong chains in consequence of the appearance outside of one English and one French steamer sounding there." MALTA, AWL 7.—lmportant news has reached this island by the steamer Cyclops, which arrived here yester day from the fleet. The allied fleets reached Kavarna Bay on the 26th ult. Eight line-of-battle ships (French) are at anchor in line to the east of Varna, flanked by six steamers. Further east are ten line-of-battle ships (Eng lish), with six steamers on their flank. The Russians have crossed the Danube at Galatz, with 30,000 men, without opposition. All the marines from the fleets are to be landed to pro tect Varna. The Fury, Apollo, and Cyclops arrived at Kavarna on the 28th. The Cyclops brings news that the Tarks expressly left a free passage to Hirsova, and, having surrounded them, after a hard fight, one half of the Russians were cut to pieces, and the remainder took to flight, and retreated across the Danube. The English brig Anne, from the Danube, while in tow of the Crescent steamer, was fired on by the Russians, and both she and the steamer were damaged. A barque (English) has also been sunk by the Russians while leaving the Danube, laden with grain. Her name is not known. VIENNA, APRIL B.—Accounts from Bucharest of the Ist instant, report that the Russians were making great efforts to push masses of troops across the Danube, near Silistria. It was expected that by the 4th, they would have concentrated 40,000 men and 130 guns in the camp at Kalaradsch. The Wanderer states, under the date of Bucharest, the 31st of March, that a battle had taken place at Tultscha, which lasted five days—from the 23d to the 27th inclu sive—with great loss to the Russians. It is certain that the Russian Government observes a strict silence on the subject, and almost equally so that a serious affair has taken place ; since, letters from Constantinople of the sth state that great rejoicings were taking place there, in consequence of the successes obtained on the banks of the Danube. The intelligence of the recal of the Greek Minister, and of the expulsion from Constantinople of all Greek subjects who would not consent to place themselves under the ex clusive protection of the Porte, is confirmed. Czernavoda, a fortress in the Dobrudscha, had been evacuated by the Turks. BBRLIN, APRIL 9.—Yesterday a despatch was forwarded to St. Petersburg, announcing that the King had used every exertion to induce the continental powers to enter into new negotiations, but that he had failed, and could obtain nothing till the Russians should have evacuated the principalities. The object of the negotiations with Baron Hess had been to determine the course of the two German powers in case either of them should take part in the war. It was settled that, if the Austrian troops should pass through Bohemia, the Prussian forces should enter Galicia and Bohemia. The following news is in a letter from Constantinople, dated the 25th March : —The English steamer Sampson, which had been sounding on the coast of Circassia, re turned on the 21st, bringing tidings of a complete victory gained by the Circassians over the Russians. Early in March the Circassians, provided with arms and ammuni tion, attacked the Russians, and, after a severely contested battle, drove them into their castles on the coast. These castles were surrounded and repeatedly attacked during four continuous days. Finally the Russians, fearing to be cut to pieces, blew up their powder magazines, and sought shelter in ships. The captain of the Sampson reports that when some Russians had abandoned two block-houses situated on a hill, the Circassians threw themselves on them and cut the whole to pieces. The same steamer had spoken with a Russian vessel proceeding to Sebastopol, laden with fugitive soldiers. The loss of the Russians had been considerable. The coast of Circassia is at present free from the enemy. Two hundred and sixty-seven ves sels ' arrived this day from the Black Sea, only four of which were in ballast. Fifteen thousand men are ex pected from Egypt, who will immediately on arrival be forwarded to Batoum under the escort of English and French steamers. THE BRITISH ARMY FOR THE EAST.

Lord Raglan and his Royal Highness the Duke of Cam bridge left London, on Monday night, last week, by the half-past eight mail train for Dover, en route for the East. They arrived at Calais on Tuesday morning, at one o'clock, where they were received by the Hon. H. Howard, attache to the British embassy, and the Vicomte de Toulongeon, and immediately left by a special train for Paris, where they arrived about nine o'clock. In the evening, the Royal Duke, Lord Raglan, and the principal officers of their respective staffs, dined at the Tuileries ; and, next day, the Emperor, accompanied by the Duke of Cambridge, reviewed, in the Champ de Mars, the army of Paris, the effective force of which amounted to 25,000 men. At twelve o'clock the various corps of the army of Paris debouehed from the Bridge of Jena, and the avenue of the Mothe-Piquet, and took up their positions on the ground. Between the bridge and the Ecole Militaire, throughout the entire length of the Champ de Mars, with the right resting on the bridge, extended five lines of infantry, forming two divisions of two brigades each, and one brigade of reserve. The whole of the infantry, counting twenty-four battalions, and four companies of engineers— about 18,000 men in all—were under the orders of Ge neral Levasseur, assisted by Renault and Bourgon, generals of division, and Marulay, Repond, Ripert, Esterhazy, and Courand, generals of brigade. Those five lines were com posed of three battalions of chasseurs; five of light in fantry, thirteen battalions of the line, and three of the Paris Guards and the Gendarmerie d'Elite. The cavalry, forming two divisions, four brigades, and forty-five squadrons, namely, eight of chasseurs, four of hussars, six of guides, eight of dragoons, eight of cuirassiers, eight of carabineers, and three of the mounted gendarmerie—drew up in four lines in front of the infantry, with the right resting on the Ecole Militaire, the left on the Bridge of Jena, and leaving a large open space in front of the grand stand. These forty-five splendid squadrons were under the command of General Norte, assisted by Peray, Ma rion, and the Duke de Montobello, general of brigade. Between the left of the infantry and the right of the 1 cavalry, in one single line, with the Ecole Militaire to the rear and fronting the Bridge of Jena, were stationed seven battalions of artillery—six foot and one horse—with forty two guns, under the orders of Brigadier-General Anvity. The total of the force under arms was about 25,000 men. At half-past twelve o'clock the Empress proceeded to the grand stand in the Champ de Mars, where she and her attendants took their places. At one o'clock the Em peror made his appearance at the bridge of Jena. He had on his right hand the Duke of Cambridge, and on the left Lord Raglan, followed by a numerous staff composed of English and French officers, all in full dress. As they made their appearance on the Champ de Mars the drums beat to arms, and the bands struck up "God Save the Queen," and " Partant poor la Syne," which were alter nately played, and cries of " Vice I'Empereur !" and " Vive les Anglais !" were heard. The Emperor and the Duke of Cambridge rode in front of the line, the former occasionally conversing with his royal highness, and the attention of the foreign officers apparently engaged in examining, not perhaps without admiration, the gallant appearance of the troops so long the rivals of the English, now, and let us hope for a long time to come, their firm and faithful allies. When the cortege had completed the survey of the whole, the five lines of infantry broke up and formed into columns of battalions, with their right on the bridge of Jena. The line of cavalry, forming into squadrons, took position to the rear of the artillery, and the artillery broke up into half batteries.. The Emperor and the Duke then took up their stand in front of the pavilion, where the Empress, the ladies in attendance, and the officers of the household were seated, to witness the defiling of the troops. The infantry opened the march and the cavalry closed it. Nothing could be finer than the appearance of the hussars, the guides, the cuirassiers, and the carabineers, as they swept in long order from the bridge to the Ecole Militaire, and as the different corps passed where the imperial and princely commanders were stationed, each chief made his signal of courtesy. The soldiers seemed inspired by the consciousness of united strength ; they sat erect in their saddles, and the horses themselves appeared to tread the ground with pride. They dashed on squadron after squadron, and troop after troop, with the banners waving, and plumes dancing, in long perspective ; and they passed before the imperial pavilion with the cry of Vive l'Empereur !" The de filing lasted more than an hour and a half. When it was over, the troops resumed the positions they first occupied on the ground, and when the Emperor passed on his re turn to the Tuileries, the infantry on the right and the cavalry on the left presented arms to His Majesty. At about a quarter to four the whole were on their return to their respective quarters. THE COMMISSARIAT CHEST AccouNT.—By a parlia mentary paper just printed of all the sums which have been received into the Commissariat Chest, and which have been paid out of the same, between the Ist of April, 1862, and the 31st of March, 1853, it appears that the total cash balance on the latter day was £567,258 ss. SEIZITRE OF MARINE STEAM-ENGINES.—A seizure has been effected at Glasgow, on the premises of Messrs. Napier, of two pairs of marine steam-engines, of 400 and 450-horse power, adapted for screw line-of-battle ships or heavy frigates, manufactured under contract for the Russian government. It appears that, as in the case of other recent seizures, some attempt has been made to set up a sub-contract for transferring these engines to a Hamburg house, Mere and Co., in order to evade their confiscation as Russian property. It has been announced by telegraph from Marseilles that both the Himalaya and Indus are engaged in conveying troops between Malta and Gallipoli.

It is 41 times the size of France, and 138 times that of England ; yet it was too small for the ambition of Alexander, who is reported to have said, " I insist upon having the Baltic to skate upon, the Caspian Sea for a bathing-place, the Black Sea a wash-band basin, and the North Pacific Ocean as a fish-pond." He en croached on Tartary for a pasture, on Persia and Georgia for a vineyard, on Turkey for a garden, on Poland for a farm, on Finland and Lapland as a hunting ground, and took part of North America as a place of banishment for offenders. DESERTION OP MEN PROM TUE TRANSPORTS AT DEPTFORD.—Much inconvenience has been felt among the fleet of transports lying at Deptford by an extensive deser tion of men into the navy. Boats from the several naval rendezvous in the river are nightly cruising round the ships, inducing the men to leave. The Bombay has lost 20 seamen, the Dunbar 15, the Caduceus 16, and the Pride of the Ocean 15, in this way. We understand that Mr. Dunbar, the owner of some of the ships, is taking steps to obtain redress from the government.—Shipping and Mer cantile Gazette. MOVEMENTS OP TROOPS.— DEESTS.--011 Thursday morning last the depot of the 88th Regiment of infantry left Burnley by the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, at 7 16, and arrived in Manchester a little before nine o'clock. The depOt consists of 6 officers, 250 men, and 30 women. At Manchester they were joined by the depot of the 7th Fusiliers, from the Regent-road barracks, consisting of 2 officers, 160 non-commissioned officers and men, and a few women and children. About 855 A.M. both depOts left the London-road station, Manchester, in a very long train drawn by two engines, on the London and North-Western line, for Birmingham, en route for Winchester and Basingstoke, but it was rot known here whether any por tion of those dep6ts was to embark for the east, or whether their quarters were merely removed from Lancashire to Hampshire. Manchester Guardian. The Albatross, Brew steam-ship, hired from a mercan tile company at Liverpool, and chartered by the Admiralty for six months' service, came into Portsmouth harbour on Saturday from Queenstown, to be armed as a man-of-war transport, and fitted and manned with an efficient crew for the Eastern expedition. On Saturday morning at four o'clock, the fourth com pany of the 19th Foot proceeded to Portsmouth, thence to embark in the Euxine for Gallipoli. Another detachment left the Tower yesterday, travelling by the North-Western Railway to Liverpool, where they are to embark for Galli poli. The main body of the regiment is expected to em bark to-day at Portsmouth. On Saturday afternoon the third company of the 19th, which had been quartered at Kensington, marched to the Tower. The regiment leaves 400 recruits to be disciplined before joining. By letters from the Black Sea fleet, we learn that one third of the executive officers belonging to the gunroom of each ship are ordered to be discharged, to serve in the Baltic fleet, and are coming in the Apollo troop-ship. There will be about 00 mates and midshipmen. The launch of the Royal Albert, 131, screw steam-ship. has been postponed to Saturday, May 13, when it will take place in the presence of the Queen, his Royal High ness Prince Albert, and other members of the royal family. The ceremony of naming the ship will be performed by the Princess Royal. The launch of the Cossack screw steam-frigate, pierced for 30 guns, with one large pivot-gun, all on the upper deck, and built for the Emperor of Russia by Mr. Pitcher, shipbuilder, Northfleet, took place on Saturday, at half past two o'clock ; she was navigated to moorings along side the Salsette receiving-ship, where she remains for the present, and will be completed for active service. She ap pears a remarkably finely built vessel, on good lines. PARAMATTA, which is one of the troop-ships taken up by the government officer at this port, is now going into dock, in order to embark cavalry soldiers, horses and baggage. Thi s h as b een the sole cause of her detention, and not deficiency of crew, as stated by a con temporary—indeed she has had her full complement of seamen on board during the last three weeks. REMARKABLE PREDICTION.—The following is taken from an old vohime of Predictions written in the 15th century, and now in the possession of a gentleman re siding at Chard, Somerset : "In twice two hundred years the Bear The Crescent will assail ; But if the Coch and Bull unite, The Bear will not prevail. • In twice ten years again, Let Islam know and fear, The Cross shall stand, Tile Crescent wane, dissolve, and disappear."
