THE CRIMEA.

The Russian Government publishes a despatch
from Prince Gortschakoff, dated the evening of the
19th, praising his troops, and announcing that the
fire of the allies had all but ceased. A small Rus-
sian reinforcement of infantry is moving down to
Sebastopol. Owing to the difficulty of feeding large
corps in the Crimea since the operations of the
allies in the Black Sea, the Russian Government
has given an increased extension to the camp at
Nicolaieff, assembling there the divisions which
would otherwise be encamped in the Tauric
Peninsula.

The following indications of the Austrian jour-
nal, the Danube, are worthy of notice, as showing
the true situation of Sebastopol according to the
avowal of the enemy themselves :—" It is posi-
tively stated that General Osten-Sacken has
removed his head-quarters into Fort Sainte Cathe-
rine, and has charged Admiral Pamphiloff and.
Chruloff with the defence of the works of fortifica-
tion. It is added that the town and fortress are
supplied with provisions and ammunition for
30,000 men for several months. This information,
however, comes from a Russian source. The fact
alone of the Russian head-quarters having been re-
moved from the town, properly so-called, to Fort
Sainte Catherine, situated to the north of the great
bay of Sebastopol, opposite the Artillery bay,
proves, better than all Vie bulletins of the Allies,
that the Russians despair of holding the town and
the fortifications on the south side."

The Post Gazette of Frankfort says:—" Letters
from the Crimea announce that the Russians are
fortifying Perekop more and more strongly, and
are establishing at Nicolaieff a large camp as a' re-
serve for the army in the Crimea and at Sebasto-
pol. According to a letter from Odessa, the num-
ber of men in the camp is already 30,000. Prince
Gortschakoff has his head-quarters still on the
Belbek. The corps of General Liprandi, not being
sufficient to occupy the heights on the right bank
of the Tchernaya in view of the enemy, has been
reinforced by the corps of General Bichnowski.
The division of General Popoff is stationed near
Inkerman, and that of General Pauloff near Eupa-
toria, which it surrounds. Generals Bellegarde,
Wrangel, and Montresor, defend the interior of the
country towards Kertch."

FRANCE.

PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING.

We have not had as yet any more detailed in-
formation respecting the affair of the 18th, in
which, as previously observed, only two divisions
were engaged ; but the despatches already received
are of a kind to diminish the gravity originally
attached to a check which there is little doubt will
be repaired and avenged before long—if such has
not already been the case.
It appears, unless the attacking forces each suc-
ceeded, neither the assailants of the Malakhoff nor
the Redan could hold their ground. Some attri-
bute blame to the English forces, in not being pro-
vided for eventualities with scaling ladders, &c.,
but this is mero conjecture.
Reports say the Russians are working as hard as
the Allies for the next struggle. It appears that
Perekop will eventually become the interesting
point. An officer who has reached Paris with re-
ports, states the number of the Russians now in
the rimea fit for service is probably not more
than 150,000, including the garrison of Sebastopol.
But fresh troops are marching towards Perekop.
A telegraphic despatch announces the safe arrival
of the Empress at Bordeaux last night at a quarter
pant ten.
An Imperial decree appoints General Salle to
the command of the sub-division of the Meuse, at
Verdun.
Generals Reveux and Talandier, of the 12th and
17th military divisions, and General Gauthier de
la Verderie, member of the committee of gendar-
mery, have just been placed on the second section
(reserve) of the staff.
The King of Portugal embarked at Marseilles on
the 24th on board the Reine Hortense and landed
the same evening at Toulon.
The gun-brig La Vigie left Algiers on the 20th
to continue her voyage to Constantinople and the
Black Sea. The Fournaise and Torche bomb
vessels left Cherbourg on the 24th for the Baltic,
in tow of the Tonnerre steamer.
