WARSAW, Atrovar 29.

General Suchozenett, who has been appointed to
succeed the late General Read in the command of the
2nd army corps, set out for Sebastopol yester-
day. He has hitherto held the rank of chief of the
artillery of the active army. He is a man of intellect
and energy, and a thoroughly accomplished soldier, his
military attainments being in nowise limited to the
range of that special branch of the service to which
be has devoted himself.
Another levy of conscripts is impending here. The
government of Kieff, which until now has been sub-
ordinated to the commander•inchief of the Crimean
army, is now placed, with all its military esta-
blishments, under the care of Prince Paskiewitch.

ODESSA, AUGUST 23.

In a fortnight or three weeks will be presented
here the greatest military spectacle the people of
Odessa have ever seen. Forty battalions of infantry,
thirty-two squadrons of cavalry, and eighteen bat-
teries, will represent the attack and defence et
Odessa, under the superintendence of General Luders.
The line of attack will extend from the village of
Lustdorf to the Shawachover bill. Yesterday a part
of the 3rd Light Cavalry Division of General Oro-
, reohelm passed through the city into the camp on
the east side. Several reserve battalions of the 11th
llnfantry Division are to follow.

A letter from Odessa, of the 25th, in the Ost.Doestsch
Post of Vienna, says:
It is still positively stated that the Emperor, with the
Grand Doke Michael, will arrive here in the course of
September, and that be will proofed hence to the Crimea to
inspect the army there. His journey is said to have
been retarded in consequence of the late events in the
Baltic. Several officers of the guard have arrived
bete, and it is said that a part of that corps have en-
tered Bessarabia. there is a considerable movement
in Southern Russia for bringing up supplies to the
Crimea, before ths bad weather sets in. There are now, it
is calculated, 160,000 Russian troops in the Crimes, and as
they formerly rsceived the main part of their supplies from
the Sea of Leon; which is not now open to them, they are
obliged to have recourse to other parts. The storehoness: at
Simferopol and Baktehissarai are said to be completely
empty, and from the vast quantities required for such an
immense body of men and horses, it is difficult to imagine
bow they will be able to be brought to the Motes by lead
conveyance.
