ADVANCE OF A RUSSIAN DIVISION ON

ERZEROUM.

The Moniteur of yesterday contains the following
note :

" TREBIZONDE, Avner 7.
"According to our latest information, the Rossi=
division which is between Kars and Erzeronm, after
marching to Deli-Baba, where it was reinforced by
a corps of 8,000 men, advanced on the let or 2nd
instant upon Kespri-Kent. Some Turkish troops
which were stationed here, giving way before sepa-
tier numbers, had to retreat. The Russians, pursuing
their march, have encamped at three leagues from
Erzeroum, at a place called Korutchouk."

GENITCIII AND THE SEA OF AZOF.

publishes the following letter

" YENIKALB, AvousT 3.

" The Straits of Genitchi, impracticable for gunboats
drawing six feet water, are equally so ler lighter boats,
owing to the difficulty of finding a channel and ether
obstacles attending its navigation. Some days ago an Eng-
glish gunboat arrived at Yenikale from Genitelti, the
officers of which stated that the moment any vessel at-
tempted to enter the Putrid Sea field batteries imme-
diately descended to the shore, and by their firs obliged
her to retire. The idea of operating with rafts has
been altogether abandoned. Three English gunboats ars
stationed along the Arabat Spit, at a distance of 1,200 yards
from each other, for the purpose of watching the move-
ments of the enemy, and opposing them if' necessary. OUR
steamers continually cruise in the Sea of Aiofi, and
come days ago the Caton arrived at Kertch to reinforce
the flotilla. The French have now seven steamers in
that sea and In the Straits. The position of the corps of
occupation continues the same. The works at Yenikale are
progressing satisfactorily, and the covered way connecting
our line of defence with the sea is nearly terminated.
The health of, our men is excellent, and our brave ma-
rines are now quite recovered from their sufferings, thanks
to the rest which they have of late enjoyed, and the good
nourishment our razasas procured them. After being ea-
gaged in active operations ever since their landing in the
Crimea, they are now employed in more peaceable labours.
Two companies have left Kertch, under the orders of Capt.
d'Arbaud, and are at this moment four leagues to the wall
of the town, protecting our reaper. We expect from
Kamiesch a number of transports, which are to ship the
grain The Pomone and Eglantine are still at their post,
awaiting the arrival of the Russians, who probably will
present themselves."

The Geyser arrived at Daatzig yesterday. She
brioire the news that all the mortar-vessels went home OA
the 18th. Admiral Seymour has relieved Admiral Baynes
off Cronstadt.

The Alexandre, which left Constantinople on the
16th instant, has arrived at Dianeilles with advice@ from the
Crimea to the 14th instant.

The Savoy Gazette publishes a letter from one of
the Genevess colonists settled at Setif in Algeria, doted
9th We arrived here," It says, "in good health, and
are every day more and more delighted with the country.
The town is admirably laid out, and has quite the appear*
mice of a European one. With the exception of Chamber/
and Annecy, there Is no town in Savoy to equal it. Am to
.the country, its fertility is remarkable. From Constantin&
to Setif, it is impossible to see a finer country, and, although
it is not very woody, it would only requires very short time
to make it so. On some farms bellaging to some Europeans,
some peach trees are now full of fruit, which were planted
from kernels three years ago; some vines, only two yeas
eld, are now in full bearing, and walnut trete, only Sh
years old, are a, large round as one's leg."
The Journal de St. Petersbourg of Aug. 17 says:
"The St. Petersburg poet-office authorities inform the pub-
lic that in consequence of the interruption by the enemy of
the communication between the Aland Islands and Sweden,
the postal communications by sea with Sweden are for tits
moment suspended; and that correspondence will only he
sent to Sweden by way of Tornio and Remands. :The esr•
respondence addressed to the Aland Islands will not be re•
eeived at all.by the P ost-ottlee."
