DUBLIN, TCESDAY.

Ireland echoes back the shout of triumph for the fall
of Sebastopol. Never did news cause such a thrill of joy
within the memory of the present generation. The glo-
rious intelligence reached Dublin about a quarter past 5
p.m. yesterday, by the telegraphic wires, and was in-
stantaneously communicated to the newspaper offices by
the manager of the Magnetic Telegraph Company, Mr.
Langster, who displayed the utmost zeal and energy on
the occasion. In a moment placards made their ap-
pearance, the news spread with the rapidity of lightning,
arid in an inconceivably short time it seemed to have
reached every ear, and every heart too, and a general
murmur might be heard, as if the city joined in one
prolonged cheer. The excitement was extraordinary.
Every ono congratulated his or her neighbour, and
every one's heart appeared to expand with the joyful
news. The account which had reached Dublin by tele-
graph so early as nine o'clock in the morning, of the
capture of the Malakhoff, might be said to have
partly prepared the public mind for the triumphant
news which followed in a few hours after ; but the truth
is, that the second news came with almost as much hur-
prise as if the former had not preceded it. The failure
at the Redan had thrown a slight damp on people's feel.
ings, and it was feared that Russian pertinacity would
have found encouragement to hold out a little longer ;
but now all cry, " Thank God it was not so."
Last night people watched with expectant ears for the
sound of cannon from the Phcenix-park, or the joyful
bells from the church towers, but they were disap_
pointed. No doubt, however, we shall have joyous
peals and grand salutes of artillery this day to celebrate
the news, and it is probable that the city will also be
illuminated; but as yet no arrangement for any public
rejoicing could be made.
The Freeman's Journal, in announcing the news, says

—" Everything that military skill, dauntless bravery,
gallant hearts, and stout arms could accomplish was per-
formed by the devoted garrison of the fallen citadel.
But steady and sure as is the progress of European li-
berty, which the flags of England and France have united
to defend, was the advance of men still more gallant and
resolutely brave—men who fought not at the bidding of
an autocrat, to whom they were true by the hereditary
habit of serfhood, but who fought in defence of prin-
ciples dear to them as the happy homes from which they
went forth, but so many of which are now, alas, desolate
for ever ; and, though brave men were ready every day
and every hour to fill the places of those who fell behind
the batteries of the doomed city, it was not in fate to
withstand the united assaults of the armies of free na-
tions battling for the liberties of Europe."

RUSSIA.

A letter from St. Petersburg, of the 23d ult., in
the Austrian Gazette, says :—" The last despatch
from Count de Nesselrode, so frequently alluded
to of late, is dated the 10th August. The Russian
diplomatist gives an exact view of the losses which
the two parties have had to sustain in the war,
which menaces, he says, Turkey with complete
ruin. He afterwards endeavours to prove that
Russia entertains no fear of seeing her men, money,
or resources exhausted, as the Western Powers
appear to imagine. His conviction on this point,
he says, is founded not only on statistical returns
and well-known facts, but on the patriotism of the
people and their moral and political sentiments.
' The Emperor Alexander,' says M. de Nesselrode,
'has received from his father as a sacred inheri-
tance the mission to combat for the honour of his
people. All Russia is convinced of that. The
reigning sovereign has changed, but the will ro•
mains the same. The resolution to oppose to the
aggression of the enemy all the resistance possible
has remained immovably the same as before.'
Count de Nesselrode, however, allows it to be seen
in his despatch that Russia is very far from reject-
ing peace, and that peace only depends on the
conditions which may be laid down to her. Rus-
sia,' he says, will be able to find in her national
sentiment, and in the force which she derives from
it, the means of opposing a sufficient resistance to
her enemies, until the moment at which they shall
be disposed to enter into an honourable arrange-
ment.' "

BRISTOL, SEPT. 11.

A state of joyous excitement such as has never before
been witnessed was produced here last night by intelli-
gence of the fall of Sebastopol, received between 7 and
8 o'clock. The news, upon its first promulgation in the
city, fled with the rapidity of wildfire from one end to
the other—each man making it his business to inform
his neighbour. The news agents and newspaper offices
posted it on the outside of their establishmerits, which
were consequently surrounded by dense crowds of citi-
zens anxious to read the satisfactory details. The streets
were thronged, especially in the heart of the city, and
persons of all ages and classes were to be seen congratu-
lating each other and shaking hands on the ebent, and
nothing was to be beard but "God save the Queen,"
cheers for Simpson and Peliesier, the English army and
our brave allies, while Marmora and the Sardinians,
Omer Pacha and " Bono Turco," came in for a share of
laudation. The host of the Angel Inn, High-street, read
all the despatches as they came to hand to an eager and
excited crowd, from his windows, illuminated the front
of his house with variegated lamps, and a concourse of
excited citizens at the top of Broad-street proposed to
get up an "address of condolence" on the occasion to—
strange combination—Cobden, Bright, and David Ur-
quhart. The enthusiasm soon diffused itself amongst
the ringers, and the bells of many of the churches, not-
withstanding the lateness of the hour, rang out merry
peals. At six o'clock this morning the bells of the
churches again commenced pealing merrily. The arri-
val of telegraphic despatches in the morning, and the
official news contained in a third edition of 7hc Sun, in-
creased the excitement, and flags were hoisted on the
Guildhall, Exchange, Council-house, and the different.
churches, and the shipping was gaily dressed out, while
at different periods of the day there were disol2Fges of
artillery.

NOTTINGHAM, TUESDAY.

The intelligence of the fall of Sebastopol arrived in this
town by electric telegraph o❑ Monday night, about half
past six. The news spread with almost miraculous
rapidity, and the greatest excitement was manifested
amongst all classes in the town. Reports of the success
of the Allies were posted up at the General Exchange
and at a number of other places, and at the pri❑cipal
thoroughfares groups of persons were assembled discuss.
ing the gratifying intelligence. The bells rang a merry
peal, and for several hours the enthusiasm was kept up.
The news quickly spread into the neighbouring villages,
the inhabitants of which testified their joy in the most
marked manner. On Tuesday when the morning papers
arrived and confirmed the intelligence, the joy of the
inhabitants was unbounded, and there is a general feel-
ing in the town that the war should not be terminated
until Russia is thoroughly humbled. The bells of St.
Peter and St. Mary rang merry peals on Tuesday, and
the lace and hosiery manufacturers are congratulat-
ing themselves upon the prospects of better trade, which
this great victory is sure to bring.

GUILDHALL.

Honorah Donovan was placed at the bar before Sir
James Duke charged with disorderly conduct.
Police-constable 265 stated that the prisoner, who is a
oostermonger, was creating a great disturbance, in com-
pany with two others, last night in Fox and Hart-court,
Snow-hill. The women had a lad about 12 years of age
between them and.were searching his pockets. Witness
attempted to move them away, on which the prisoner
became very violent, kicking, biting, and scratching him.
She was so violent that he had to procure assistanoe to
bring her to the station•house. The child, be believed,
was the prisoner's son, and was in a helpless state of in-
toxication at the time ; she appeared to be taking what
money he had from bin.
The wbo it was stated was in the neighbourhood
of the court, was sent for by the alderman, and i■
answer to questions put to him, said he was given beer
by one of the women who was in company with his
mother ; he was not "very" drunk.

Sir James Duke, after expressing his sorrow to hear
of such depravity, sentenced the prisoner to seven days'
imprisonment.

BOW-STREET.

THE CASE OP STRAHAN, PAUL, AND Co.—This morn.
log William Strahan, Robert Makin. Bates, and Sir John
Dean Paul, Bart., were placed at the bar before Mr.
Jardine for final examination, charged with feloniously
disposing of a large quantity of foreign securities, lodged
with them for safe keeping as bankers.
Mr. Bodkin appeared for the prosecution, and Mr.
Parry appeared for Mr. Bates.

Mr. Bodkin, in opening the case, said there were lye
witnessed clerks in different banking houses—named
Mstcalf, Stafford, Potter, Mitchell, and Franklin—in
attendance ; and as their absence from business to-day
would occasion some inconvenience, he proposed merely to
call those gentlemen, And intimate to them that their
presence would be required next week. The different
gentlemen were then called, and directed to attend, as
Mr. Bodkin desired.

Th• witnesses, Dr. Griffith, Wiley, Boyes, Pelly,
Young, Moore, and Hill were then bound over to ap-
pear at the next session at the Central Criminal Court.
Mr. Burnard, a stockbroker, residing at 69, Lombard-
street, corrected his deposition, which stated that in
1854 he purchased Dutch stock for the defendants ;—it
ought to be that he effected a loan on Dutch stock for
the bank on the application of Sir John Paul, to the
amount of thirty thousand pounds, upon security of
Dutch 24 per Cents.
Mr. Bodkin said the state of the case was now so far
advanced that to-day he should ask for a committal.

The first witness called was
Mr. Bell, the official assignee to the fiat, who deposed
that on the 16th of June, some days after the fiat, he
went to the banking-house, nd Mr. Straban informed him
that the bonds of Dr. Griffith would not be forthcoming.
He thought the word sold was used. The conversation took
plum in the parlour behind the shop. Mr. Strahan and

AUSTRIA.

The German Journal of Frankfort states from
Vienna, that the Hospodar of Wallachia has re-
quested Austria to exercise her influence with
Wurtemberg and other German States, to induce
them to allow 50,000 German families to emigrate
to Wallachia. The Government of that province
engages t© grant them land from the property of
the religious foundations, and to exempt them
from taxes for 10 years.

The glorious intelligence of the capture of Sebastopol
arrived in Lewes by electric telegraph last evening about
six o'clock, and was subsequently confirmed by the arri-

containing the official despatch. The news was received
with every demonstration of joy. Fireworks were let
off in all parts of the town, and wild salutes were fired

the local journals immediately afterwards published the
account of the glorious victory in a small handbill. An
hour or two afterwards a brass band made its appearance

the " National Anthem," " Rule Britannia," " Parcant
pour la Syrie," &c. The church bells rang till midnight ;
some of the principal inns were illuminated ; every-
where the crowd was great, and the cheering and
excitement prevailed for hours. Some of the inhabi-
tants were a little chary in receiving the news as
true, from the false announcement some months ago,

in the London journals of that morning, prepared the
public mind for the fall of the fortress of Sebastopol.

NEGLECT OF DUST CONTRACTORS.

Several instances of neglect on the part of dust con-
tractors were brought before the court, and penalties
were inflicted. In one case, in which it was distinctly
proved that the contractor's men refused to remove the
dust from a greengrocer's house unless they received six-
pence for their trouble, a fine of twenty shillings was in-
flicted ' • the chairman stating that it was the determina-

persona of all ages and classes were to be seen congratu-
lating each other and shaking hands on the event, and
nothing was to be heard but "God save the Queen,"
cheers for Simpson and Peliesier, the English army and
our brave allies, while Marmora and the Sardinians,
Omer Pacha and "Bono Turco," came in for a share of
laudation. The host of the Angel Inn, High-street, read
all the despatches as they came to hand to an eager and
excited crowd, from his windows, illuminated the front
of his house with variegated lamps, and a concourse of
excited citizens at the top of Broad-street proposed to
get up an "address of condolence" on the occasion to—
strange combination—Cobden, Bright, and David Ur-
qohart. The enthusiasm soon diffused itself amongst
the ringers, and the bells of many of the churches, not-
withstanding the lateness of the hour, rang out merry
Deals. At six o'clock this morning the bells of the
churches again commenced pealing merrily. The arri-
val of telegraphic despatches in the morning, and the
official news contained in a third edition of The Sun, in-
creased the excitement, and flags were hoisted on the
Guildhall, Exchange, Council•house, and the different
churches, and the shipping was gaily dressed out, while
at different periods of the day there were discharges of
artillery.

NOTTINGHAM, TUESDAY.

The intelligence of the fall of Sebastopol arrived in this
town by electric telegraph on Monday night, about half
past six. The news spread with almost miraculous
rapidity, and the greatest excitement was manifested
amongst all classes in the town. Reports of the success
of the Allies were posted up at the General Exchange
and at a number of other places, and at the principal
thoroughfares groups of persons were assembled discuss.
ing the gratifying intelligence. The bells rang a merry
peal, and for several hours the enthusiasm was kept up.
The news quickly spread into the neighbouring villages,
the inhabitants of which testified their joy in the most
marked manner. On Tuesday when the morning papers
arrived and confirmed the intelligence, the joy of the
inhabitants was unbounded, and there is a general feel-
ing in the town that the war should not be terminated
until Russia is thoroughly humbled. The bells of St.
Peter and St. Mary rang merry peals on Tuesday, and
the lace and hosiery manufacturers are congratulat-
ing- themselves upon the prospects of better trade, which
this great victory is sure to bring.

GREENWICH.

Immediately on receipt of the official information the
royal standard was hoisted at the Royal Hospital and
the Union Jack at the Naval School, and at a later honr
atnight a grand and spontaneous display of fireworks,
in celebration of the glorious event, took place on Black-
heath—the bells from the steeples of every church in
the district ringing joyous
peals. A general illumination
ie expected.

COWES, SIPT. 11.
Salutes were fired et noon to-day from the Vioe-Con•
modore's yacht, and from the Royal Yacht Squadron
Battery, in honour of the long-desired event. The whole
of the yachts in the roads were dressed with the flags of
the allies.

The proprietor of the Royal Surrey Zoological Gar-
dens having informed the public, is a portentous poster,
that " all that was left " of Sebastopol was to be seen
at that popular place of amusement, the gardens were
filled with a dense and excited crowd from an early hour
in the evening. Extraordinary efforts bay, been made
to exhibit, with more than usual eclat, the spectacle to
which the late important news gives a happy reality
The gardens were beautifully illuminated throughout
their entire extent with variegated lamps, tastefully
arranged in appropriate devices. The bombardment was
more than usually terri fie, and terminated with a blaze
of coloured fires, and the cheers of the immense Cora-
piny assembled. Several times in the course of th
evening the state of tl se public feeling Ives evinced in the
most unmistakeable r canner.

BOW-STREET.

TETE CASE OF STRAHANt PAUL, AND Co.—This morn-
ing William, Strahan, Robert Makin Bates, and Sir John
Dean Paul, Bart., were placed at the bar before Mr.
Jardine for final examination, charged with feloniously
disposing of a large quantity of foreign securities, lodged
with them for safe keeping as bankers.
Mr. Bodkin appeared for the prosecution, and Mr.
Parry appeared for Mr. Bates.

Mr. Bodkin, in opening the case, said there were five
witnesses, clerks in different banking houses—named
Metcalf, Stafford, Potter, Mitchell, and Franklin—in
attendance ; and as their absence from business to-day
-would occasion some inconvenience, ho proposed merely to
call those gentlemen, and intimate to them that their
presence would be required next week. The different
sentlemen were then called, and directed to attend, as
Mr. Bodkin desired.

The witnesses, Dr. Griffith, Wiley, Boyes, Pally,
Young, Moore, and Hill were then bound over to ap-
pear at the next session at the Central Criminal Court.
Mr. Burnard, a stockbroker, residing at 69, Lombard-
street, corrected his deposition, which stated that in
1554 he purchased Dutch stock for the defendants ;—it
ought to be that he effected a loan on Dutch stock for
the bank on the application of Sir John Paul, to the
amount of thirty thousand pounds, upon security of
Dutch 21 per Cents.

Mr. Bodkin said the state of the case was now so far
advanced that to-day he should ask for a committal.
The first witness called was

Mr. Bell, the official assignee to the fiat, who deposed
that on the 16th of June, some days after the fiat, he
went to the banking-house, and Mr. Straban informed him
that the bonds of Dr. Griffith would not be forthcoming.

GUILDHALL.

Honorah, Donovan was placed at the bar before Sir
James Duke charged with disorderly conduct.
Police-constable 265 stated that the prisoner, who is a
costermonger, was creating a great disturbance, in com-
pany with two others, last night in Fox and Hart-court,
Snow-hill. The women had a lad about 12 years of age
between them and were searching his pockets. Witness
attempted to move them away, on which the prisoner
became very violent, kicking, biting, and scratching him.
She was so violent that he bad to procure assistance to
bring her to the station-house. The child, be believed,
was the prisoner's son, and was in a helpless state of in-
toxication at the time ; she appeared to be taking what
money he bad from him.
The lad, who it was stated was in the neighbourhood
of the court, was sent for by the alderman, and in
answer to questions put to him, said be was given beer
by one of the women who was in company with his
mother ; be was not "very" drunk.
Sir James Duke, after expressing his sorrow to hear
of such depravity, sentenced the prisoner to seven days'
imprisonment.

RUSSIA.

A letter from St. Petersburg, of the 23d ult., in
the Austrian, Gazette, says :—" The last despatch
from Count do If esselrode, so frequently alluded
to of late, is dated the 10th August. The Russian
diplomatist gives an exact view of the losses which
the two parties have had 'to sustain in. the war,
which menaces, he says, Turkey with complete
ruin. He afterwards endeavours to prove that
Russia entertains no fear of seeing her men, money,
or resources exhausted, as the Western Powers
appear to imagine. His conviction on this point,
he says, is founded not only on statistical returns
and well-known facts, but on the patriotism of the
people and their moral and political sentiments.
The Emperor Alexander,' says M. de Nesselrode,
has received from his father as a sacred inheri-
tance the mission to combat for the honour of his
people. All Russia is convinced of that. The
reigning sovereign has changed, but the will re •
mains the same. The Resolution to oppose to the
aggression of the enemy all the resistance possible
has remained immovably the same as before.'
Count de Nesselrode, however, allows it to be seen
in his despatch that Russia is very far from reject-
ing peace, and that 'peace only depends on the
conditions which may be laid clown to her. Rus-
sia,' he says, will be able to find in her national
sentiment, and in the force which she derives from
it, the means of opposing a sufficient resistance to
her enemies, until the moment at which they shall
be disposed to enter into an honourable arrange-
ment.'"

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 6th have arrived. The
Queen had sent 10,000 reals to the sufferers from
cholera in the province of Ciudad Real (the real is
worth fire sous). The Gazette denies that the works
for the canalisation of the Ebro have been suspended,
and states that the Government has taken the neces-
sary measures for continuing them. The Queen
had approved of the survey made by a Commis-
sion of Portuguese and Spanish engineers for the
passage of the Madrid and Lisbon Railway across
the frontiers. A letter says :—" The troops which
were recently sent from this city to Barcelona have
received orders to cease their march, and to remain
where they now are. This proves that the Govern-
ment has no apprehension with respect to Cata-
lonia."

OXFORD, TUESDAY.

The news of the glorious victory obtained at Sebasto-
pol by the allies reached this city on Monday evening,
about six o'clock, by a telegraphic despatch to Mr. Blott,
the station master of the North-Western Railway, who
immediately conveyed the pleasing intelligence to the
Vice-Chancellor and Mayor. Almost simultaneous with
this came a message by the electric wire, received by the
Rev. Geo. Hammond, one of the senior fellows of Mer-
ton College, from his brother at the War-office. The rev.
gentlemen lost no time in acquainting Mr. Slatter, of the
High-street, who immediately announced it to the pub-
lic by posting it in the window, and in a short time the
joyful news spread like wildfire, and we can venture to
greater.

President, off Sitka, July 17.
Sir,—l request you will inform the Lords Commis-
sioners of the Admiralty, that before leaving Petropau•
lovski, I succeeded in opening a communication with
Capt. Martinhoff, the temporary Governor of that
place, who bad retired into the interior, having for its
object the release of two prisoners taken last year, as
reported in my general letter of the 15th ult., No. 41.
Having forwarded a safe conduct to Capt..Martinhoff,
through the kind offices of an American resident in
Petropaulovski, that officer nut 150 versts inland for
them, and on their arrival, on the 25th ult., delivpred
theca up to Captain Houston, of her Majes4's ship
Trincomalee, and three Russians that had been detained
on hoard the French brig Obligado since last year were
given in exchange.

The two men proved to be William Garland, ordinary
seaman, of her Majesty's ship Pique. and Pierre Lan-
gois, of the French frigate Forte. The latter will be
handed over to the Forte on my arrival at San Fran-
cisco, and the former will, at his own request, be ap-
pointed to the Brisk, his proper ship having sailed for
the China station. Both appear to have been treated
with much• kindness during the time they have been in
the hands of the enemy.—l have, &c.,

CITY COMMISSION OF SEWERS.

Yesterday a court was held for the despatch of public
..usiness ; Mr. Deputy Peacock occupied the chair.
MEDICAL OFFICER OF HEALTH.
Mr. Deputy DAKIN —I wish to ask a question of the
Chairman, in consequence of a paragraph which has ap-
peared in the morning papers with regard to the alleged
appointment of Mr. Simon, the officer of health to the
City, to the higher appointment of medical officer to the
General Board of Health of the metropolis. Of course it
is a great compliment to this commission if their officer
has been elected to so important a position, but as this is
now a matter of public notoriety, I would ask if the para-
graph to which I have alluded to is at all within the
Chairman's knowledge ; and if so, whether Mr. Simon
has made any communication to this commission ?
The CHAIRMAN—I have beard nothing since last week,
and when I asked the doctor if the report was true, ho said
that there was not, as far as he knew, any ground for it:
but that if be heard anything that ought to be reported
upon, he would let the court know of it. I have heard
nothing since. (Hear, hear.)

LEICESTER, TIIISDAT A.TTERNOON.

The startling intelligence of the successful assault
upon Sebastopol reached this town soon after 5 p.m.
yesterday. The news was telegraphed to some of the
leading commercial houseq, and to the general news-
rooms. At the theatre M. Gaillard, a French resident,
read one of the despatches from The Sum newspaper,
which was received by the house with tremendous
cheers. So elated was the worthy Frenchman that he
commenced singing " Partant pour la Syrie," which
was taken up by the orchestra, and followed by the
National Anthem. About ten o'clock the bells began
to ring merrily, and about 11 our worthy townsmen
were startled with me repeated discharge 01 artillery from
the neighbouring Spinney-hills, an enthusiastic and pa-
triotic townsman having with three small pieces of can-
non taken this means of testifying his loyalty and joy.
This morning the bells of St. Margaret's, St. Martin's,
and St. Mary's churches were again ringing. On every
hand were seen the tokens of jubilation. There was but
one theme in the mouth of every person, whatever his
politics or position. The flags of England and France
were displayed from the houses or shops of the principal
tradesmen, and the statue of the Duke of Rutland, in
the Market Place, was adorned with the tricolor and the
Union Jack. Firearms have been continually discharged
throughout the town. Lieut.-Colonel King, of the
Leicestershire Militia, read the despatches in the Mar-
ket Place, after which the militia gave hearty cheers,
and the band played the national airs. At 12 o'clock,
according to ancient custom, which for 140 years has
fallen into disuse, the news was proclaimed from the
top of the castle, now the militia armoury, a re-
stored remnant of the ancient Leicester castle,
and the despatches were read by W. Napier
Reeve, Esq., deputy-clerk of the peace for the county,
in the absence of the constable of the castle. The
flags of England, France, Turkey, and Sardinia were
hoisted and saluted with great cheering by the assembled
multitude, the militia band playing " Partant pour is
Syrie," " God save the Queen," and other airs. It was
still thought, however, that some demonstration was
wanting in which all classes could testify their joy at
this last and greatest triumph of the allied armies. Ac.
cordingly, a committee was formed, consisting of some
of the principal inhabitants of the town, and a subscrip-
tion entered into, which was headed by the Mayor with
101. (his lordship offering 251. if it were needed). All the
bands of music in the town were engaged, and at half-
past 5 this afternoon a triumphal procession is to parade
the principal thoroughfares, and the shops will generally
be closed. Throughout the day our ancient town has
had all the appearance of a holiday, and the evening will
close with illuminations and general rejoicings.

LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY.

The intelligence of the capture of Sebastopol, brought
to hand at an hour yesterday when the majority of the
merchants had left off business, was received in the Ex-
change News Room with loud cheers from those present.
The news spread with a celerity perfectly astounding,
and created the greatest excitement. It was also an-
nounced from the stage of the different theatras, the audi-
ence in all cases being most vociferous in their applause.
The bells of the different churches have rang merry peals
at intervals to-day, the royal standard has been hoisted
in front of the Town Hall, and the union-jack floats over
the various public buildings—in many cases in conjunc-
tion with the French tricolor. The line of docks and
river present a gay appearance ; many vessels aro show-
ing all their bunting.
