FRANCE.

PARIS, SATURDAY.
The French Government has received the fol-
lowing telegraphic despatch from Gen. Pelissier :
" Crimea, 23d, 10 at night.
"The enemy, being closely pressed by our miners
in front of the battery No. 53, decided on exploding
during last night five chambers of mines against
that battery. The explosions produced no effect
on it, and have done us no injury."

We have received the following private telegra •
phic despatches :
" MARSEILLES, 25th.—The Alexandre has just
arrived, having left Constantinople on the 16th.
She brings to Francel,looPick or wounded soldiers
of the army of the East. The fete of the 15th was
celebrated there with great pomp. The Sardinian
and Greek Ministers were present at the Te Deum
which was performed on the occasion, but the absence
of Lord Stratford de Redcliffe was remarked. Ac-
counts from Trebisond of the 7th confirm the news
of the Russians being at only three hours' march
from Erzeroum. The English consul at that place
had removed all the archives of his office to Trebi-
sond. Letters from Kars of the 28th July state
that, notwithstanding the approach of the Russian
army, the spirit of the troops was excellent. The
last accounts from Odessa state that the Russians
had lately launched several vessels which had been
on the stocks at Nicolaieff."
" MARSEILLES, Aug. 25.—The Alexandre brings
accounts that two more battalions were about to
embark for Tripoli, under a general. The Porte 1
places great reliance on the assistance offered by )
the Bey of Tunis. The major part of the Tunisian
cavalry has embarked at Constantinople for Asia.
An attack by General Muravieff on Erzeroum ap-
pears inevitable. The fortifications of that place
are incomplete. The Sultan has at length con-
sented to the departure of Omer Pasha for Asia,
subject however to the assent of the allied generals.
The Allies have placed 150 new mortars in position
before Sebastopol. The Russians have doubled
the garrison of that place, and are preparing for a
desperate defence. The allies expect the most
favourable result from the bombardment. A Bel-
gian brig, the Rubis, has been pillaged at Sulina."
" HAMBURG, 24th.—The French corvette, La
Marne, has just arrived in this port with 218 Rus-
sian prisoners on board."
" DANTZIC, 24th evening.—The Geyser has just
arrived. She left Nargen on the 21st. Part of
the Allied fleets were anchored there, and a part
at Cronstadt. Since the bombardment of Swea-
borg nothing of importance has taken place. The
gun-boats have left to return to France and Eng-
land."
The Queen of England, Prince Albert, the Prince
of Wales, and the Princess Royal will leave St.
Cloud on Monday morning, at ten o'clock, for the
Tuileries, whence they will again set out at eleven

The Moniteur publishes the following letter from
the Emperor, to General Peliss ier, dated August
20 :

" General,—The new victory gained on the Tcher-
naya proves for the third time, since the commencement
of the war, the superiority of the Allied armies over the
