RUSSIA_.

We have received the St. Petersburg journals o:
the Ist and 2d of June.

The Invalide Busse publishes the following de
spatches from Prince Gortscha.koff

"SEBASTOPOL, May 27 (June 8 )
"After two days of most violent bombardment, on
the 26th of May (7th of June), between 6 and 7 in the
evening, three French divisions attacked and occupied
the Kamtschatka, Selinghinsk, arid Volhynia Redoubts,
as also our battery situate betweiela the Selinghinsk Re-
doubt and Bastion No. 1.
"The Kamtschatka Redoubt was retaken by us, but
the reserves of the enemy again took it by storm. After
a sanguinary combat, the battery alone remained recon-
quered by us.
"Our loss is about 2,500 in kilrfed and wounded.
" Our troops fought admirably; the proof may be
found in the loss of the enemy, wtlich exceeds our own,
in the capture of 275 French soldiers and 7 officers (now
prisoners), and of two small guns taken from the French
during the fight.
The enemy penetrated as far as the bridge of Careen-
ing Bay, and to the ditch of the Kornileff Bastion, where
they lost a great many met.
SEBASTOPOL, May 28 (June 9).
"The cannonade continues with. great violence, and is
chiefly directed against the Kornileff Bastion and Bastion
No. 3. The enemy has demanded a suspension of hosti-
lities for burying the dead.
The Invalide Russe publishos the following de-
spatch from Prince Gortschakoff, dated the 31st of
May (12th of June) :
" On the 30th and 31st of May (11th and 12th of
June) the fire of the enemy was weak in the day time,
and, at times, even ceased complately. The bombard-
ment was not more active at night. On our side the
losses were moderate. . .

" The enemy is not throwing up any works in the
Selinghinsk and Volhynia redoubts, but they are recon-
structing the Kamschatka redoubt.
" The Anglo-French squadron, with a portion of the
troops that had occupied Kertch and Yenikale, has ap-
peared near the Takil Lighthouse, with the intention it
is presumed, of making for Anapa.
" Nothing else has occurred on other points of the
Peninsula."

TURKEY.

TRIESTE,
21.--A packet has just arrived with
accounts from Constantinople to the roth. The
state of things in Asia was still critical. At Kars
the entrance of the Russians was considered as ine-
vitable, there being no proper means of resistance.
It is positively stated that Batoum and Tschou-
roucksou have been evacuated by the Turks. Some
corps of Russian troops have advanced as far as
Redoubt Kale, and the interruption of the trade
with Persia is considered probable. Halil Pasha
retains his portfolio as Minister of Marine. The
accounts from Athens are to the 15th. The Mi-
nistry is completed. The Turkish Ambassaor was
expected.

DESTRUCTION OF TILE RUSSIAN STORES.

On Friday night the work of destroying Russian stores be-
gan, and the French hurled over several guns into the sea,
tore up the platforms, and exploded the shells found in the
magazines. The corn which the enemy intended to destroy
by pouring lime-water over it is still fit for use. Parties of
boats have been sent in all directions to secure and burn
prizes, and to fire the Russian storehouses and huts on the
sandbanks, and •by day the sky is streaked with lines of
smoke, and by night the air is illuminated by the blaze of
forts, houses, magazines, and vessels aground on all the flats
for miles around us. The magazines of Kertch are still blaz-
ing, the Englishman's manufactory is Li. ruins, and the ether
Government stores will soon follow. It is intended to remove
as many guns as possible, and to destroy the remainder.
There is nothing doing at Yenikale except throwing up
earthworks and demolishing • parts of the old fortification in
order to strengthen them.

STATE OF TRADE.

( Ppo;n the Manchester Guardian of this day.)
MANCHESTER, June 22.--Our market continues to
decline and to exhibit much irregularity. There are
indications, however, which excite a hope that we are
approaching the bottom of the descent, where a resump-
tion of business may take place. The abatement of price
which spinners and manufacturers have voluntarily of-
fered to submit to is now so considerable that buyers
begin to feel themselves pretty nearly within reach of
sellers, and they are consequently enabled to propose
terms to the latter.
BRADFORD, June 21.—Wool: The bare supply of
combing wools in this market is not yet altered, new
wools having come in but slowly, and
prices are the
same as last week. Yarns—The spinners being
gene-
rally working to order, there is no disposition to enter'
into new engagements until prices rule more in accord-
ance with the cost of production. Pieces—There is a
fair amount of business doing, and the deliveries are to
orders taken some time ago, and as these run out they
cannot be placed, except at higher prices.
NOTTINGHASr,
June 21.—There is nothing new to
note in the condition of business in either the lace or
hosiery trades of this town since our last.

LEICESTER, June 21.—The prices of yarns during the
last month have been very unsettled, owing to the con-
tinued advance of wools, a rise during that period of
three-halfpence per lb may be quoted, but the advance on
the respective sorts has been put on or otherwise, ac-
cording to the connection of the spinner.

►WOOLLEN TRADE.

(Front the limds Mercury of this day.)
LEEDS, June 22.—We have no change to report in
the state of the woollen trade. There has been a good
business done in the cloth-halls this week. The market
in the coloured-hall was rather flat on Tuesday, and the
transactions were rather limited in number as well as in
bulk ; but in the white cloth market there was a lively
tone prevalent and an average Tuesday's business was
done. The stock of cloth in the markets is considerably
on the decrease. There is a fair seasonable trade doing
in the warehouses—quiet and steady ; but as much as
is usual at this period of the year : it is mainly for the
home market. The shipping houses continue in a state
of comparative inactivity.
HUDDERSFIELD, June 19.—The market to-day has
been rather quieter than that of last week, still there
has been more business done in both the Cloth Hall and
the warehouses than on the average of market days
lately,

11-Aurex, June 16.—Our market to-day has presented
much the same features as, recorded of its last week's
predecessor, wools and yarns continuing to show rather
a hardening tendency, particularly light-haired combing
wools, which are yet in scanty choice here.

RUSSIA.

We have received the St. Petersburg journals of
the Ist and 2d of June.

The Invalidc Russe publishes the following de-
spatches from Prince Gortschakoff

" SEBASTOPOL, May 27 (June 8 )
"After two days of most violent bombardment, on
the 26th of May (7th of June), between 6 and 7 in the
evening, three French divisions attacked and occupied
the Kamtschatka, Selinghinsk, and Volhynia Redoubts,
as also our battery situate between the Selinghinsk Re-
doubt and Bastion No. 1.
" The Kamtschatka Redoubt was retaken by us, but
the reserves of the enemy again took it by storm. After
a sanguinary combat, the battery alone remained recon-
quered by us.
"Our loss is about 2,500 in killed and wounded.

" Our troops fought admirably; the proof may be
found in the loss of the enemy, which exceeds our own,
in the capture of 275 French soldiers and 7 officers (now
prisoners), and of two small gnus taken from the French
during the fight.
The enemy penetrated as far as the bridge of Careen-
ing Bay, and to the ditch of the Kornileff Bastion, where
they lost a great many mer.
SEBASTOPOL, May 28 (June 9).
"Tito cannonade continues with great violence, and is
chiefly directed against the Kornileff Bastion and Pastion
.No. 3. The enemy has demanded a suspension of hosti-
lities for burying the dead.
The Invalide Busse publishes the following de-
spatch from Prince Gortschakoff, dated the 31st of
May (12th of June) :
" On the 30th and 31st of May (11th and 12th of
June) the fire of the enemy was weak in the day time,
and, at times, even ceased completely. The bombard-
! ment was not more active at night. On our side the
losses were moderate. _ .

" The enemy is not throwing up any works in the
Selinghinsk and Volhynia redoubts, but they are recon-
structing the Kamschatka redoubt.
" The Anglo-French squadron, with a portion of the
troops that had occupied Keitch and Yenikale, bas ap-
peared near the Takil Lighthouse, with the intention it
is presumed, of making for Anapa.
Nothing else has occurred on other points of the
Peninsula,"

LAW INTELLIGENCE (THIS DA YJ

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.

(Sittings at Nisi Prius, before the Lord Chief Baron and
a Special Jury.)

BUNTER V. THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY.

In this case, Sir F. Thesiger (with whom was Mr.
Lush) appeared for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Bramwell,
Q.C., and Mr. Hawkins, for the defendants.
The action was brought by the plaintiff to recover
compensation in damages from the defendants for injuries
sustained by him by reason of the negligence of the de-
fendants' servants.

It appeared from the evidence that on the Bth August,
1853, the plaintiff, together with a friend named Ker-
shaw, were travelling by'express train from King's-cross
to Bigglesby, on the Great Northern Railway, when, in
their approach to Hornsey, the train came into violent
collision with some coal trucks which were lying across
the line, whereby the plaintiff and a number of other
passengers sustained severe injuries. In the case of
the plaintiff it was stated, on the authority of three
medical gentlemen, that a blow which be received
on his head had produced concussion of the brain,
and consequent paralysis, and had, moreover, com-
pletely undermined his constitution and previously
good health, inasmuch that he had never since been
able to attend properly to his business.

The iine of.cross-examination pursued by Mr. Bram-
well appeared to be directed to proving that 'oppressed
or transferred gout, and not the injury, had brought
about the effects from which the plaintiff had been suf-
fering.

At the close of the plaintiff's case, the learned counsel
proceeded to address the jury for the defence. He ad-
mitted on behalf of the defendants.tha.t the negligence of
one of their servants had resulted in the accident in
question, and said he should confine himself to the con-
sideration whether the plaintiff bad really suffere 1, as he
stated, from the effects of the injury he sustained, or
from some other cause, and, consequently, whether or
not the jury would be warranted in awarding damages.
The arguments of the learned counsel were proceeding
when our report was despatched.

Barony Alderson, Parke, and Martiu sat in Banco in
the ExchequPr Chamber ; but during the morning no
case of any general interest transpired..

CAMP POULTRY.—A letter of the 23d ultimo from
Inkerman, written by a French soldier, and containing '
an account of the sharp engagement during the night,
hag this characteristic postscript :—" P.S. Good news,
which I beg you not to laugh at ; my hen, which I
bought the, other day, has laid two eggs ; they are for
Captain F., who has a wheezing cough. A hen is a
most precious treasure out here ; hen's eggs fetch a
franc - a piece, and hardly any to be had even for that.
I take my leave of you with the offering of seven or
eight violets, that I have just gathered for your sake,
and which I enclose in this letter.
In consequence of the height of the waters in the
streams which falls in the Seine, immense fleets of wood
have been recently brought down the river. Those
which are now arriving are for the most part composed
of fir trees, many of them 100 feet in length, and which

RUSSIA.

We have received the St. Petersburg Journal of
Ist April.
The Emperor, accompanied by his brother Nicho-
las, intends to visit Finland, and more particularly
Helsingfors, previous to the commencement of hos-
tilities in the Baltic. It is expected that the Grand
Dukes Nicholas and Michael will soon return to the
Crimea. The merchants of St. Petersburg have
subscribed 300,000 silver roubles towards the ex-
pense of the militia, and handed it over to the
military authorities. .

ODES-SA, March 20.—Governor-General Annen-
koff left yesterday for Kherson. He is charged
with the commissariat and transport of all the
troops under the command of Prince Gortschakoff.
Captain Baron Osten-Sacken arrived yesterday with
despatches from St. Petersburg. He met Prince
Gortschakoff at Nicolaieff, and delivered his de-
spatches to him, and the general at once left for
Perekop. Letters from Eupatoria state skirmishes
were taking place every day round that place. In
the affair of the 9th the Russians had 800 men put
hors de combat. One regiment of dragoons had 93
men killed, and 114 horses killed.

AUSTRIA.
A letter from Vienna, in the Breslau Gazette,
says :—" It would seem that Bavaria made to
Austria a proposition, which probably originated
the rumour of a better understanding between the
Cabinets of Vienna and Berlin. M. de Pfordten
applied to Austria not to insist at the conferences
on more than the questions concerning the protec-
torate of the Principalities and the free navigation
of the Danube, and to merely act as mediator on
the 3d and 4th points. That proposition aimed at
nothing less than to cause Austria to adopt the
policy of neutrality pursued by Prussia, and to
reject the system of the Allied Powers. The cabi-
net of -Vienna rejected energetically the proposition
of Bavaria."

A letter from Vienna, in the Czas of Cracow,
says :—" The Empress of the French has made a
present to the Empress of Austria of a lace dress,
which will be seen at the Exhibition of Paris,.and
the pattern of which was designed by the Empress
Eugenie herself. The value of this dress is esti-
mated at 200,000 f."

PIEDMONT.

The committee of the Piedmentese Senate on the

the report. He acknowledges the right of the
State to suppress them, but thinks the measure in-
expaclient except in a financial point of view. .The

The eminent position and well-proved ability of

To•day's market was very scantily supplied with all
kinds of English wheat. The demand, however, ruled
very inactive, at Monday's currency.
For foreign whew--the show of which was very mode-

were almost nominal.. We had a fair inquiry for barley,
at full prices ; but malt was very dull, at barely late rates.
We had a very dull Aale for oats.
Beans, peas, and flour moved off heavily, on former

SOUTH WALES IRON WORKS. consequence of the
depressed state of the iron trade and the high rate of
wages which have fer a length of time past been received
by the workmen, the iroumasters of South Wales have
determined to reduce the wages of their men to the ex-
tent of 10 per cent: This reduction was pretty generally
carried into effect on the la•it pay day, and was submitted
to by the various workmen without any feelings of dis-
satisfaction being expressed, the men being perfectly
aware that the rate of their wages for months past has
been unproportionately high in comparison with the
rates obtained for the manufactured iron, bars,_or rails.
On the question being• first mooted the Dowlais men
objected, and threatened a strike if the wages were re-
duced, but after several interviews with the principals
they agreed. to the reduitiop, and are DOW 1744
