Militia takes place at Montrose to-day.
The first court-martial since the present embodiment

corrigible private named Braggs, for desertion, and after
a lengthened investigation he was sentenced to 42 days'
imprisonment in tho county gaol at Springfield.

of the war and the demand by the Queen for men in the

and expressed their readiness to volunteer.

RUSSIA.

TheWaltrnat de St. Petersbourg of the 23d of
January gives the following account of the recent
crossing of the Danube by the Russians :

"The Commander-in-Chief of the army of the South,
Aide-de-Camp General Prince Gortschakoff, havingbeen
informed of the movement of Turkish troops in the pro-
vince of Babadagh, deemed it advisable to make him-
self acquainted with the strength and intentions of the
enemy.

"This reconnaissance was intrusted to Lieutenant-
General Ouschakoff, with a detachment of four batta-
lions, two squadrons, six rotnias of Regiment No. 1 of
Don Cossacks of Sazonoff, four pieces of artillery, and a
Cossack field rocket battery.
"On the 27th of December (Bth of January) these
troops crossed to the right side of the Danube, took pos-
session of the bridge on the so-called Somowo Mouth,'
and, having dispersed the cavalry which opposed them,
occupied Tultscha.

"Our cavalry, under the command of Colonel Sazonoff,
was directed on Babadagh, which it attacked on the
28th (9th January). The Turks who occupied the town
fled by the Bazardjik road, and, pursued by our Cossacks,
suffered a considerable loss.

" On the 29th (10th January) the detachment of Lieu-
tenant-General Ouschakoff re-crossed to the left bank of
the Danube.

"In these encounters the Turks lost 263 men killed,
and we took 83 prisoners. Among the latter there Was
a superior officer and two subalterns. Our troops,
moreover, captured a flag and a portion of the baggage
train, with provisions and ammunition.
" On our side one Cossack was wounded."

It is expected here that Prince Menschikoff will
undertake a second and decisive blow against th.e
Allies immediately on the arrival of the Princes.
Full confidence is expressed hero with regard to
the success of Russian arms, and intelligence is
impatiently awaited.
A Russian official report gives the following as a
list of killed and woundud in the defence of Sebas-
topol between the 6th of October and the 17th of
November :

NEW MINISTRY.

SUN OFFICE, Three o'Clock.
Nothing positive is known up to this hour as
to the construction of the New Cabinet.

The Earl of Derby has been actively engaged
with his political supporters, and it seems to be
tolerably certain that his lordship will attempt to
form a new Coalition Ministry.
Some people, in quarters which we may pre-
sume to be well informed, go the length of saying
that her Majesty made it a sine qua no that, if
possible, Lord Palmerston should be admitted
into the Darby Cabinet. The movements of the
Earl of Derby yesterday would not only tend to
confirm that impression, but would seem to indi-
cate that Lord Palmerston has no objections to ay4
with the Earl of Derby, inasmuch as it walimot
until the Earl of Derby had had an intenw
with his Lordship that the Noble Earl received
her Majesty's commands to attempt the forma-
tion of a Ministry.

The appropriation of Cabinet offices is as yet
unknown even to the leaders of the Derby party
themselves, but all the members of the last Derby
Administration have consented to act in the
present emergency, while the Earl of
Ellenborough, Sir E. B. Lytton, and other
celebrities on the Opposition side have also inti-
mated their readiness to serve, if needful.
It is understood that the proceedings in Pai-
liameiat this evening will be purely of a formal
character. In the Commons, Lord Palmerston
will announce the resignation of the late Ca-
binet, and probably move the adjournment of the
House until Monday. Similar statements
will no doubt be made in the Peers by
the Earl of Aberdeen, with the addition that he
had advised her Majesty to send for the Earl of
Derby, who had since informed him that he had
undertaken the task of forming a new Minstry.
London, England, 1855-02-01

to take their chance with the people ; if the really
able among our aristocracy will but use their
abilities, not to drag on the Government and Ad-
ministration of the country by gathering cousins
and connexions around them, but in frankly open-
ing the door to honourable service and distinc
tion in all the professions, to all who deserve it,
then, and then only, will they be able to dispense
with a military police. Then, when peace shall
return, we shall be able to train, our army purely
as an army, to get it and to keep it in a state fit for
all that may be required of it in defence cr
attack.

Exposures of aristocratic and official misman-
agement and incapacity seem to follow each other
rather quickly. The aristocratic borough system
fell some twenty years ago. Since then their
Corn Laws fell beneath the stroke of the people,
and almost all their monopoly laws went with
them. Their Church system has staggered under
the attacks of Voluntaries from without and
HORSMANS from within ; and now their grand
resort—the Army—where no son of the plebeian
brave, like young PERRY, might mingle with the
sons of the wealthy and the titled, is laid bare to
the publie view. The army of Franco mercilessly
stands testifying against them. The courage of
neither army is for a moment in question, nor
even the natural abilities of the two nations.
The question now answered in the Crimea before
all Europe is—Does the French system of open-
ing promotion to merit, and training men to all
the duties of warfare, or the English one of sell-
ing all our promotions to the wealthy, and using
our soldiers in regiments for police purposes,
answer best t If Mr. ROBBIICK and our Commons
are faithful to their duty, that question is now
answered for all the future of England. The
Horse Guard system is doomed, as surely as that of
rotten boroughs or the Corn Laws.

THE WAR IN ASIA.

The Kars army is in the usual state. By the
last accounts the Russians were making large levies
of troops on the frontier. The mission of Achmet
Vefix Effendi to Teheran was attended with con-
siderable success, and there was reason to hope that
Persia might be united to Turkey, if not by friend-
ship, at least by a feeling of common interest.
Achmet Effendi did much to conciliate the religi-
ous prejudices of the priests and people. By re-
presenting the danger of their common Mahome-
danism, and the necessity of defending it, he had
created a feeling of distrust towards Russia, which
would, propably, before long, have influenced the
conduct of the Court.

Kurdistan still continues in a state of revolt.

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

The Varna correspondent of the Fremden Blatt,
vrlio is believed to be an officer from Holstein in
the service of the Porte, writes that the Turkish
army will be better off in the Crimea than it was
in Wallachia. Ismail Pasha has at length defini-
tively taken the command of the Turkish army left
on the Danube, but he has not yet left for Shumla.
All the reports that reach us respecting the plans
of the allied commanders may be summed up in a
couple of lines. There will be continual skirmishes,
but no events of importance until the spring.
The bad weather has recently so interrupted the
communications in the Principalities, that it was
not until the 18th ult. that the official report of
the Russian inroad into the Dobrudscha reached
Bucharest. The original object of the Russians
seems to have been to advance to Kostendje, and
to prevent the embarkation of the Turks for the
Crimea. The Russian force consisted of 12 In-
fantry battalions and a detachment of Cossacks.
The Commander of the. Turkish Cossacks, the Pole
Serbinsky, was killed. The Russians, for some
unknown reason, only advanced to 13abadaah,
which they set on fire. On the 16th, Ismail Pasha
left Bucharest for Rustchuk.

PACKAGES FOR THE TROOPS IN THE
CRIMEA.

In reply to Mr. A. STAFFORD,

Mr. COWPER stated that the Admiralty had given
instructions to the authorities of the Dockyards of
Deptford, Portsmouth, and Plymouth to receive all
packages directed by private individuals to any
officer or person in her Majesty's service either
at Scutari, the Crimea, or Constantinople, and to
forward tkem as occasion might offer, by vessels going
out laden with Government stores. Separate bills
of lading were made out for suck private packages, but
the means of transmitting them to Balaklava were limit-
ed, though not to Constantinople or Smyrna. (Hear.)

subject of Education until this day fortnight.

THE TRANSPORT SERVICE.

On the Wildfire, steam transport, reaching Malta, on
the 20th of January, it was found that there had been a
mutiny on board, the first mate having shot Captain
Downand. The delinquent was landed and taken into
custody, the Wildfire proceeding on to the Crimea with
Mr. Shaw and a party of navvies. The Wildfire, on
reaching Balaklava, is to be converted into an hospital
ship.
We learn, by electric telegraph frora Falmouth, that
the Mauritius, screw transport, Stewart master, arrived
on Tuesday afternoon from Balaklava, Malta, and
Gibraltar. She left the latter place on the 23d ult.,
bringing 127 passengers from Malta, including sick and
wounded, and 220 passengers from Gibraltar.
Betweea the 12th and 20th of January the following
vessels of war and transports left Malta with troops and
stores for the Crimea :—The Jura, with 38 officers and
1,090 rank and file . • Transport (150), with 19 officers
and 865 rank and file ; the St. Jean D'Acre, with
troops ; and the Foyle, the Poiotiers, the Clyde, and the
Lady Eglinton, with munitions of war, huts, and warm
clothing ; and the Trent, with 260 mules and 54
Spanish muleteers.

of the Federal fortress of Luxemburg, left here
yesterday morning by the early train for Paris.
His mission to the Court of Paris relates to the
views in the late note despatched from here on. the
21st inst.

BERLIN, Jan. 28.-11 is stated that M. von der
Pferdton has renounced his proposed mediatory
visit to this place, partly because Austria has de-
clined compromise and half-measures, and partly
because the Bavarian Chambers render the Prime
Minister's position " sour," if not hazardous. Nor
has anything occurred to indicate distinctly whe-
ther Austria will obtain a majority at the Diet,
although an impression exists that such will be the
issue, if ever German Governments can harden
their hearts to transmit decided instructions to
their envoys.
The following telegraphic despatch was received
this afternoon :

" TRIESTE, Jan. 27.—Yesterday the express train
from Tienna was stopped by the snow at Adels-
berg. The Duke and Duchess of Brabant have
gone by the Lloyd steamer Australia to Egypt.
Their Highnesses intend visiting the cataracts of
the Nile, and will return by way of Palastrina and
Syria. Weekly report :—Little done in coffee on
account of the small quantity in the market ; sugar
firm ; pepper yielding ; Egyptian cotton, limited
supply, sought for ; corn dull."

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS.—(THIS EVENING.)
In the vicinity of the House of Lords there was the
greatest excitement. In the lobbies crowds of persons
were assembled, all, from the expression of their coun-
tenances, waiting the assembling of their lordships with
great anxiety. Iu the interior of the house the gallery
appropriated to the members of the House of Commons
was filled to overflowing. The side galleries were ',Aso
filled, and among the "distinguished persons" present
we observed an Ea,tern prince, who wore a magnificent
costume. The vicinity of the throne was also crowded
with spectators.

At tive o'clock the LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat
on the woolsack.

In a few minutes after the Earl of Derby entered and
took his usual seat, Lord Colchester and the Earl of
Ellenboreugh sitting on either ride of the noble ear!.
On the episcopal Isench we observed the Bishop of
Oxford and the Bishop of London.

REFORM IN THE ECCLESIASTICAL COURTS,

Lord BROUGUA.II presented a pet,tion from
Charlotte Jones, praying for a reform in the Ecclesiasti-
cal Courts.

The Lord CHANCELLOR said he had great pleasure
in informing tho noble an i learned lord that a measure
meeting the grievance complained of was about to be
brought under their lordships' consideration.

THE WAR IN ASIA.

The Kars army is in the usual state. By the
last accounts the Russians were making large levios
of troops on the frontier. The mission of Achmet
Vefix Effendi to Teheran was attended with con-
siderable success, aid there was reason to hope that
Persia might be united to Turkey, if not by friend-
ship, at least by a feeling of common interest.
Achmet Effendi did much to conciliate the religi-
ous prejudices of the priests and people. By re-
presenting the danger of their common Mahome-
dauism, and the necessity of defending it, ho had
created a feeling of distrust towards Russia, which
would, propably, before long, have influenced the
conduct of the Court.

Kurdistan still continues in a state of revolt.

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

The Varna correspondent of the Fremden Blatt,
who is believed to be an officer from Holstein in
the service of the Porte, writes that the Turkish
army will be better off in the Crimea than it was
in Wallachia. Ismail Pasha has at length defini-
tively taken the command of the Turkish army left
on the Danube, but he has not yet left for Shumla.
All the reports that reach us respecting the plans
of the allied commanders may be summed up in a
couple of lines. There will be continual skirmishes,
but no events of importance until the spring.
The bad weather has recently so interrupted the
communications in the Principalities, that it was
not until the 18th ult. that the official report of
the Russian inroad into the Dobrudscha reached
Bucharest. The original object of the Russians
seems to have been to advance to Kostendje, and
to prevent the embarkation of the Turks for the
Crimea. The Russian force consisted of 12 In-
fantry battalions and a detachment of Cossacks.
The Commander of the Turkish Cossacks, the Pole
Serbinsky, was killed. The Russians, for some
unknown reason, only advanced to Babadagh,
which they set on fire. On the 16th, Ismail Pasha
left Bucharest for Rustchuk.

NEW MINISTRY.

SUN OFFICE, Three o'clock.
Nothing positive is known up to this hour as
to the construction of the New Cabinet.

The Earl of Derby has been actively engaged
with his political supportera, and it seems to be
tolerably certain that his lordship will attempt to
form a new Coalition Ministry.

Some people, in quarters which we may pre-
sume to be well informed, go the length of saying
that her Majesty made it a sine qua non that, if
possible, Lord Palmerston should be admitted
into the Derby Cabinet. The movements of the
Earl of Derby yesterday would not only tend to
confirm that impression, but would seem to indi-
cate that Lord Palmerston has no objections to act
with the Earl of Derby, inasmuch as it was not
until the Earl of Derby had had an interview
with his Lordship that the Noble Earl received

her Majesty's commands to attempt the forma.
tion of a Ministry.

The appropriation of Cabinet offices is as yet
unknown C 7072 to the leaders of the Derby party
themselves, but all the members of the last Derby
Administration have consented to act in the
present emergency, while the Earl of
Ellenborough, Sir E. B. Lytton, and other
celebrities on the Opposition side have also inti-
mated their readiness to serve, if needful.
It is understood that the proceedings in Pai-
liamont this evening will be purely of a formal
character. In the Commons, Lord Palmerston
will announce the resignation of the late Ca-
binet, and probably move the adjournment of the
tiouse until Monday. Similar statements
will no doubt be made in the Peers by
the Earl of Aberdeen, with the addition that lie
had advised her Majesty to send for the Earl of
Derby, who had since informed him that ho had
undertaken the task of forming a new Minstry.

MILITARY.

Colonel Willianss, K.H., who since the beginning of
the year 1850 held the office of Assistant-Adjutant-
General for the Kilkenny Military District, has been
appointed to command a division of the reserve to be
formed at Malta for the purpose of keeping up the
strength of the army in the East, taking the rank of
Briff,cliirePaPitSkn t ot iuu men and four officers, belong-
ing to the 17th Regiment, now at Limerick, is under
orders to proceed to Malta.
Yesterday, from an early hour, the workmen in
the Ordnance storekeeper's department in the Tower
were actively engaged in making preparations for the
embarkation of the last portion of the winter
clothing, culinary utensils, stores, &c., for the
Crimea. The stores consisted of American stoves,
iron kettles and saucepans, frying-pans, and other
culinary utensils, far clothing, both for men and
horses, blankets, flannel, under-clothing, hosiery (fleecy),
trousers, ' cowhide watertight boots and shoes, and
great coats, many of those garments having been lost at
the battle of Inkerman. The embarkation commenced
before 9 o'clock a.m., and was continued until a late
hour ; but, owing to the immense quantity to be shipped,
it will occupy another day to embark the whole. •

THE CAMP OF ALDERSHOT.

Yesterday the Committee of the Board of Ordnance
completed contracts for the erection of temporary
wooden buildings on Aldershot-heath for an encampment
of 20,000 men. They are to be ready in March.

BULL POINT MAGAZINE.
A railroad of a peculiar description is now being made
under the directions of the Board of Ordnance, by Mr.
Roach, builder, the contractor, from the powder works
at Sinterbury to the new magazine at Bull Point, a dis-
tance of about a quarter of a mile ; the object being to
facilitate the removal of gunpowder, after it has been
proved, from the old establishment to the magazine.
About 200 men were set to work on the 18th instant,
and the road is to be completed in six months ; the
trams of the line are to be of wrought copper, and
the carriage wheels of mixed metal, as a preventative
from fire. The cost, we learn, is estimated at about
14,0001.

to tako their chance with the people ; if the really
able among our aristocracy will but use their
abilities, not to drag on the Government and Ad-
ministration of the country by gathering cousins
and connexions around them, but in frankly open-
ing the door to honourable service and distinc•
tion in all the professions, to all who deserve it,
then, and then only, will they beable to dispense
with a military police. Then, when peace shall
return, we shall be able to train our army purely
as an army, to get it and to keep it in a state fit for
All that may be required of it in defence or
attack.

Exposures of aristocratic and official misman-
agement and incapacity seem to follow each other
rather quickly. The aristocratic borough system
fell some twenty years ago. Since then their
Corn Laws fell beneath the stroke of the people,
and almost all their monopoly laws went with
them. Their Church system has staggered under
the attacks of Voluntaries from without and
HOREMANS from within ; and now their grand
resort—the Army—where no son of the plebeian
brave, like young PERRY, might mingle with the
sons of the wealthy and the titled, is laid bare to
the public view. The army of France mercilessly
stands testifying against them. The courage of
neither army is for a moment in question, nor
even the natural abilities of the two nations.
The question now answered in the Crimea before
all Europe is—Does the French system of open-
ing promotion to merit, aid training men to all
the duties of warfare, or the English one of sell-
ing all our promotions to the wealthy, and using
our soldiers in regiments for police purposes,
answer best ? If Mr. ROEBUCK and our Commons
are faithful to their duty, that question is now
answered for all the future of England. The
Horse Guard system is doomed, as surely as that of
rotten boroughs or the Corn Laws.
London, England, 1855-02-01

TURKEY.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Jan. 18.—News has been re-
ceived which brings down our knowledge of
Schamyl's existence and continued command up to
the time of the late foray in Georgia, of which he
was, no doubt, at the head. It will be remembered
that a horde of mountaineers suddenly descended
on the open country near Tiflis, plundered two
villages and some country houses, massacred the
inhabitants—men, women, and children—and car-
ried off two ladies to the mountains, whether they
fled at the approach of the Russian troops. The
British Ambassador has endeavoured to obtain the
release of these ladies from the savages who have
them in their power, but without effect. It is said,
however, on good authority, that a letter has been
received from Schamyl, stating that the ladies wore
carried off by a band under his orders ; so that
there can be no doubt that this personage still
exists, a fact that will, no doubt, cause much en-
thusiasm among his admirers in Europe.
Rumours of negotiations for peace have been
prevalent for the last few days. The Austrian
Intornunciate is hopeful of peace and of the high
position which a country will gain by being the
author of it. The Galatz merchants are sanguine
or desponding according as they deal in Russian and
Wallachian corn, or supply the necessities of the
Turkish army and its allies. The feeling, both in
the diplomatic and general world, however, is that
the Czar will never consent to the destruction of
Sebastopol, and that the allies will not desist until
it is destroyed.

THE TRANSPORT SERVICE.

On the Wildfire, steam transport, reaching Malta, on
the 20th of January, it was found that there had been a
mutiny on board, the first mate having shot Captain
Downand. The delinquent was landed and taken into
custody, the Wildfire proceeding on to the Crimea with
Mr. Shaw and a party of navvies. The Wildfire, on
reaching talaklaia, is to be converted into an hospital
ship.

We learn, by electric telegraph front Falmouth, that
the Mauritius, screw transport, Stewart master, arrived
on Tuesday afternoon from lialaklava, Malta, and
Gibraltar. She left the latter place on the 23d ult.,
bringing 127 passengers from Malta, including sick and
wounded, and 220 passengers from Gibraltar.
Between the 12th and 20th'of January the following
vessels of war and transports left Malta with troops and
stores for the Crimea :—The Jura, with 38 officers and
1,090 rank and file ; Transport (150), with 19 officers
and 865 rank and file ; the St. Jean D'Acre, with
troops ; and the Foyle, the Poiotiers, the Clyde, and the
Lady Eglinton, with munitions of war, huts, and warm
clothing ; and the Trent, with 260 mules and 54
Spanish muleteers.
