Tint RUSSIANS IN TIIE CAUCASUS.—The Si. Peters-
burg Jourual, of the 18th ult., contains the following :
" The last accounts received from the Caucasus inform us
that the winter campaign of the Russians considerably dims
niched the influence of Shamyl in the Great Tachetschne, and
forced him to place his partisans in the village of Gurdaly,
at the foot of the Katschkalikowski, and among the Ar-
gounski, who are the most bitter enemies of Russia, and
constantly make illettliiollll on its territory. Lieutenant-
General Prince Boriatisaki is consequence undertook an
expedition against different points of the Tachenehna.
For this purpose Colonel Prince Woronzow, on the 23rd,
occupied, with three battalions, four detachments of Coe-
sacks, and six pieces of artillery, the defiles of idisianski.
At six o'clock in the morning Prince Boriatiaski arrived
with a strong body of Cossacks; he marched wjth all
his columns as far as the defile of Schalinski, where he
established • camp, near Schawdoo. General Maiden
joined the principal column with five battalions and
six pieces of artillery. On the Paine day Generals
Moiden, liatzgowert, and Schandon took the direction of
Basta and Grementschouk ; and Colonel Baklanski, with
tour battalions, a body of Coesack• and seven pieces of ar-
tillery, occupied the mountain of Kasschkalikowski, in
order to destroy the village of (Radial. The Cossacks,
under Colonel Suehodolski, surrounded the place, while
Baron Nickolay attacked and eventually entered it. After
a sanguinary combat the Circassian' were all put to the
sword, with the exception of 62, who gave up their arms.
Tho cattle were all removed, and the village set tire to. On
the 24th Prince Boriatinaki advanced along the Black
Mountains, but returned to Groans on the ',Atoning day.
The Citeassians have lost a great quantity of hay and corn,
and have had a number of men killed and 195 taken pri-
toners. The Russians have had 2 officers and 46 soldiers
killed, and 10 officers and 254 soldiers wounded. Prince
Woroncow advanced towards the defiles of Argouck with
a strong force of infantry and cavalry, sad four pieces of
artillery. In the night of the 26th he suirearised and burnt
three villages. The Circassian' had 32 mekitillcd and se-
veral wounded ; the Russians 1 officer and 9 soldiers killed,
and 6 officers and 61 soldiers wounded."
RAINS AT NAPLES.—The Journal of the Taco Ski-
list gives an account of several storms and inundations
which have taken place in the course of this month in yeti-
one parte of the Neapolitan territory. Heavy rain fell on
the 10th and 11th at Naples and in the adjoining country,
and caused portal inundations, which occasioned much
damage to the villas and gardens, betides the destruction
of several walls and huts. Oa the Mergellina road, the
torrent penetrated into a small inn, and washed all the fur-
niture into the sea. Similar damage was done along the
coast of Posilipo, where the road was rendered impassable
by the earth and rubbish deposited by the torrents. The
road to S. Giovanni a Teduccio was completely blocked up
with fragments of old lava, stones, and earth, while a cart
drawn by two horses was with great difficulty prevented by
some fishermen from being washed into the sea. At Cas•
tellamare, the lightning split the telegraph, and killed the
sentinel who was stationed there, besides perforating the
walls in several places. The village of &saran() was also
visited by lightning, and a pereoa severely burnt by it;
and similar eases occurred at Campesano near Nola, at
Atella in the province of Basilicata, and in several parts
of the Abruzzi, where great damage has been caused by
violent storms.
LEGAL FILTIoNs.--On the 24th inst. the Common
Law Procedure Act will come into force, when a good mauy
legal fictions will be abolished. In proceedings in eject-
ment, as already stated, John Due and Richard Roe will
depart, and with them a great number of technicalities.
There will be no "casual ejector," and the pleadings will
be simplified so that they may be understood. Instead of
delivering • declaration and notice, a writ is to be issued
and served on the person in possession, and under a penalty
of being turned out of possession, they must appear within
16 days and make their defence. In delimit of au appear-
ance, the plaintiff may at once sign judgment, and obtain
possession of the property. Under the new law, the jury is
to find specifically—that is, to which part of the property
the plaintiff is entitled. Another alteration made is, that
actions of ejectment are not to abate by the death of a
claimant or defendant. There are 54 clauses in the Com-
mon Law Procedure Act with respect to proceedings in
ejectment.
DEPARTMENT Or PRACTICAL ART.—The Atlaena'urn
says: We have reason to know that the following circular
has been sent to • few of the principal metropolitan pub-
lishers. In view of the hostility that was month dial by
certain publishers towards the publication by the Educutioa
Board of the Irish school book+, the Departinent uf Prac-
tical Art seems to have de!ermiaed on placing the responsi-
bility of resolving the difficulties of the question upon
trade interests: " Department of Practical Art, Marl-
borough House, August 26, 1652.—Certain clam works
and examples which do not exist at present require
to be produced for the use of the schools in connection
with this department, and so far as 1 can see are not
likely to be produced by private agency. When pro-
duced, besides being useful in our scl.ools, it appears to be
desirable that the public at large should be able to procure
them. But whilst enabling the public to purchase them, it
