DESPATCH FROM GENIMIL
• /•
The Moniteur of yesterday (Monday) contains i
the following :••••
The Minister of War has received the following
report from General Pelizsier, dated July 31 :
" MONSIEUR LE MAEICHAL, —The besieged have mad,
another attempt upon our works on the Malakoff side ;
but it was as unsuccessful as their previous endeavours.
" In the night of the 24th of July, towards midnight,
the enemy, under cover of a sharp fire, made a sortie with
about 150 me; from the left of the little Redan, upela
our ambuscades at the extreme right, which they endea-
voured to turn, We are very near the place at thi
point ; the night was very dark ; and they were upon
our gabionade in an instant.
" General Bisson, of the Dulao Division, who com-
manded the advanced brigade, had given precise and
detailed orders on each point, and bad confided the de-
fence of the right to Lieut.-Colonel de Taxis, an officer
of great merit.
" Although the enemy attacked the first rank of our
working parties, he was warmly received and much in-
jured by the musketry of the Chasseurs-a-pied and of
some companies of the 10th Regiment of the Line,
placed on the right and left of the work, and command-
ing, from the scarp, all who could harass the working
parties, who themselves took part in the action, and
conducted themselves very well, under the direction of
the Captain of Engineers Lecasq, who was charged, that
evening, with the direction of the works on that point.
"The Russians retired, leaving with us a wounded
titan, who died before reaching the ambulance, and eight
corpses between our ambuscades and the ditch of the
place. It is to be inferred that our fire brought down a
large number of the enemy, because they were occupied
for two or three hours in the depth of the night in carry-
' ing off their killed and wounded, and nevertheless they
loft some upon the ground.
",This little night engagement, in which only about
ten of our men were lost, does honour to the General, to
the superior officers who commanded on this aide of our
attack, as well as to the officers, subalterns, and soldiers,
among whom I will confine myself to mention to your
Excellency Serjeant Casaux, of the 10th Grenadiers of
the Line, who bayoneted several Russians, and the rifle.
man Eye, of the Imperial Guard, who killed two.
" The works were recommenced as soon as the enemy
were driven back into the place, Your Excellency
knows that everywhere they have been vigorously urged
forward, and that hitherto the besieged have made no
new attempts to disturb them. With this view, indeed,
they continue to employ their artillery, whose fire ac-
quires more vivacity during the night ; but we neverthe.
less always advance and progress.--Accept, &c.,
" PELISSIER, General-in-Ohief."

ERVOI7S DEBILITY;
;.1 Its Causes, Symptoms, and Cure.—An Essay on Sper-
natorrho3a, with Practical Observations on a safer and more
inecesstul mode of treatment of the diseases of the Generative
ystcm, obtained by the use of the Microscope in detecting and
iitinguishing, by urinary examination, the real cause and effect of
-very variety of complaint, whether arising from solitary habits,
•xcesses, accident, or climate, followed by practical remarks, founded
m twenty years' experience in the treatment of Impuissance,
\Tervous Debility, Local Weakness, Spermatorrhcea, &c. To which
ore added, Commentaries on the Physiology of Marriage, with pre.
3autionary hints on the evils emanating from empirical practice,
ind on the dangerous remedies advocated by various writers on

->octor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edit,-

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
sood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled:

_
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are
personal management which cannot be violated without
incurring of
grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penaltiee
nay be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may. be removed,
end how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
ierangement to which the timely aid. of science cannot apply a cure.
The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have
untortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant
emnirics, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith In their pretensions.

RUSSIA.

The Military Gazette of Vienna, which, however,
receives its information from Russian sources, pub-
lishes the following letter from Odessa :

"According to letters from Sebastopol of the 22d, it
is not true that the communications between the northern
and southern sides of the town have been interupted, as
stated in the some of the newspapers. The town is
well supplied with provisions ; the storehouses on the
northern side, for example, contain supplies for 300,000
men for a year, and those of the State are actually able
to sell flour to the 8,000 inhabitants of Sebastopol at a
moderate rate. The sick of the hospitals have for the
most part been removed to the interior of the Crimea ;
there are only in the northern fort about 12,000 men,
whose wounds are too serious to permit them to be re-
moved. The cholera does not cause the ravages stated
in several newspapers, and it has nowhere taken an
epidemic character."

Another letter from Odessa, in the Cologne Ga-
zette, says on the other hand :—" Both here and
at Nicolaieff the Russians appear to have lost all
hope of preserving Sebastopol."
A letter from St. Petersburg of the 2d, in the
Bonen/Ktlle, says :—" An ordonnance has just been
published fixing the penalties for delay in the pay-
ment of customs duties. Another decree confides
the Ministry of Finance ad interim to M. Norows,
during the absence of M. de Brook. Thirteen go-
vernments of the western part of the empire have
furnished all their contingents without its being
found necessary to have a supplemental drawing,
and the Emperor has-expressed his satisfaction to
the governors on the subject.

HERTVORD.

The Hon. W. Cowper, whose return to Parliament is
not likely to be opposed, has issued an address to the
electors of Hertford, in which he says :
" The magnitude of the expeditions which England has
been obliged to undertake for the purpose of restraining
the aggressive designs of Russia against the freedom and
civilisation of Europe, and the distance from the sources
of supply at which our army has to operate, threw upon
the military departments a burden which at first they
were üble to sustain ; but new departments have now
been or*anised and old ones remodelled, and the army is
fully supplied with everything needful, and is preserved
from many of the hardships the enemy has still to endure.
"I shall be happy to give in person any explanations
of my political views that may be desired ;, but I believe
that at the present moment you are less inclined to enter
1140 those general topics than to demonstrate to the lia-
rat large the desire to give such support and encou-
ragement to the Government of Lord Palmerston as may
enable him to ive full effect to his declared resolution
o,
prosecuting the war with the utmost vigour and
euerey, as the
andsurest way of attaining an honourable
lasting peace."
Mr. Jasper Gripper, the mayor, has fixed to-morrow
(Tuesday) for the nomination.

KILMARNOCK.
Mr. Bouverie, addressing his late constituents, refers
to the proposal to obtain Peace by yielding to the enemy's
demand, and adds, "Another Way is by perseverance in
a vigorous prosecution of the war, by a determination to
spare no effort and sacrifice to reduce the pretensions
and to baffle the designs of our foe, by a resolution to
win those fair terms of pacification from his conscious-
ness of defeat which it is idle to expect from his justice
or his moderation. Suchnl believe to be the right road
to a restoration of peace."
Mr. Bouverie, it is believed, will be returned unop-
posed.

[ADVERTISEMENT. ]—Holloway's Ointment and Pills
are superior remedies for bad legs.—Extract of a letter
from Mr. Samuel Thannon, Baker, Mill-street, New-
townards:—" To Professor Holloway. Sir,—For eight
years I suffered with a bad leg, which confined me to
bed for months together ; it was completely black, and
swollen to an enormours size. I consulted at different
times 16 medical men, but derived no benefit by their
treatment. Finally, I commenced using your ointment
and pills, and after persevering with them for two months
the swelling gradually decreased, the blackness disap-
peared, and I now feel as wcll as though nothing had
been the matter with me."—Sold by all druggists, and

other equally flagrant evil which It may be in his .ower to con.
rect." —London Medical Gazette. "The tribe of I Quiet Sympathisers.'
and 'Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed; and if this book
could find its way into the hands of those who suffer from the com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
beibired much needless suffering of body and mind, and-what is of
le-si importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much m0ney...... This volume is well qualified to put an end to th,
einoirical system of treating Spermatorrhma, and to place the treat
ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefor,-
likely to do much good."

FRANCE

PARIS, SUNDAY EVENING.
The greatest preparation is making for the recep-
tion of Queen Victoria. It will he one of the most
magnificent pageants ever witnessed.
Another week has passed away without bringing
us any important news from the seat of war. It
may be a subject for congratulation that the allies
have not yet attacked the Malakhoff. The enemy
has created new difficulties, and fresh troops have
arrived in Sebastopol. No doubt, both have con-
tributed to delay another grand move. Meanwhile,
it is satisfactory to know that the gallant forces of
France and England are augmenting in equal pro-
portion, and whilst the enemy only increases his
numbers at a loss of 75 per cent. by deaths on the
road, our command of the seas enable us to laud
reiwforcements without the loss of a man.

General Canrobert has not arrived. It is stated
that Rothschild's have lent ten millions to the Porte
at 6 per cent.
According to letters from Constantinople it was
expected that the Ministers favourable to reform
would purge the Divan of the Old Turkish party.
At the Dardanelles order had been restored, but
the Bashi-Bazouk deserters were scouring the
neighbouring villages, and making great havoc.
Numerous desertions have taken place from the
Anglo-Turkish Contingent at Constantinople, and
there was some probability of its being removed to
S humla.

The Emperor receiv€d his Royal Highness
Prince Adalbert of Bavaria on Saturday at the
Palace of the Tuileries. The Emperor will receive
at the Tuileries on the 15th of August—

In the apartments of the Empress, at a quarter-
past 11 a.m., the Households of ?heir Majesties
and of their Imperial Highnesses.
At one p.m., the Ministers, the Grand Chancel-
lor of the Legion of Honour, and the Governor of
the Invalids.

In the Throne-room, at half-past one p.m., the
Diplomatic Corps.
The remaining presentations will take place at
two &clock p.m.
The magistrates are to be in full dress ; the civil
functionaries in full dress, but without white
trousers. Officers are to be in full uoiform.

At Lille, on Saturday, Dussart, O'rdelier, and
Dusumonerez were acquitted. Dliennie was found
guilty of conspiring to kill the Emperor, and Des
quiers of a participation in a plot. Extenuating,
circumstances were admitted. Dhenuio was sen-
tenced to hard labour for life, and Desquiers to
five years' imprisonment.

The whole of these 26 screw-ships with one exception,
it will be seen, are either in the Baltic or the Black Sea ;
they form the real and solid strength of the navy and the
security of our shores. Few of them were designed as
screw ships; they have been adapted either on the stocks or
since they have been launched ; 16 of them are the most
powerful ships in the world. The machinery alone of
these 26 ships cost half a million sterling. The follow-

GREAT REDUCTION IN THE

PRICE OF

FIVEPENCE-HALFPEN NY

FOURPENCE.
FOR THE THIRD OR LATEST EDITION.

In consequence of the abolition of the Stamp
Duty on Newspapers the public in all
large cities and towns to which parcels
are forwarded by the News-Agents, The
Sun, which formerly cost Fivepence-half-
penny for the Latest Edition, containing
Parliamentary Debates of the same even-
ing, together with the List of Army and
Navy Promotions in the London Gazette,
with Official Despatches from the Seat of
War, the Latest Sporting, and all other
Commercial News, List of Bankrupts,
(to., Sc., can now be had for Fourpence,
being a caving of nearly one-third.
Hitherto the price of the paper was nomi-
nally Fivepence, but all Late Editions
posted after six o'clock were charged a
fee of One Halfpenny by the Post-office,
which made the price to the Subscriber
Fivepence-Halfpenny. This charge must
still be made to those in remote places
unless the Postmaster-General have the
nagnanimity to forego such a paltry
source of revenue.

OFFICIAL REOULATIONS RUTH' REFER-
E CH' TO THE TRANSMISSION OF
NEWSPAPERS, &c., BY POST.

In order that the public may be made fully acquainted
with the now very numerou,i regulations issued by the
Post-office authorities respecting the transmission of
newspapers and periodical publications through the Post.
office, our reporter has written to the Secretary of the
Department, and received a complete reply. Subjoined
are the questions asked, and a condensed epitome of
the elaborate instructions now printed by us for the in.
formation of the public :
THE QUESTIONS.

1. Is it necessary, under the new regulations, in order
to ensure the delivery of newspapers within three miles of
the General Post-office, without being charged according
to weight, that a Queen's head must be affixed to the cover
in addition to the penny stamp 7
2. Is it the fact that unstamped papers will circulate
within three miles of the Post-office, if a Queen's head be
affixed to the cover, and that such papers, if sent to the
Colonies, would be charged full "book letter-rates ?"
3. Is it the fact that, beyond the three miles—to the ex-
tremity of the United Kingdom, an unstamped paper, not
exceeding 4 oz. in weight, if prepaid by a Queen's head—
will pass without further charge, and that the same regu-
lation applies also to all papers distinguished by the " dis-
tinctive die ?"
