How can it be said then that he has arrived in that m• rl 11' .1 ,i,,, bearer 01 v...kiic. p.roposala antrusted to hita by '
AuOri.:l He must consequently have been charged
with these proposals two months ago : he has given them
carriage to the Crimea, and it is no.y for the first time
that he communicates them to the Emperor Alexander;
We see, then, that this fresh rumour paraded by the
Patrie will not stand examination for an instant, and to
say the truth, we have been engaged on it too long
already. For the matter of that, it is not the only ru-
mour flying about. The believers in peace seem even to
have taken fresh heart a little yesterday. But since
nothing more sure than what is past and done with is
brought forward in support of these hopes, as they will
rest Solely on the efforts now being made with a view to
an arrangement, although nothing as yet indicates the
success of those efforts, we maintain our previous re-
serve, and we still recommend caution to our readers.
We may likewise add, that according to the tenor of cak
correspondent's letters from Berlin, these rumours of
peace obtain far less credit in Germany than in France
or England. The journals of this last named country
are, besides, in general, still little inclined to regard
them favourably.

Yesterday the following vessels passed Elsinore,
homeward bound, viz., the Magicienne, Locust,
Cossack, Amphion, Driver, Vulture, Desperate,
Harrier, Esk, Porcupine, Tartar, Geyser, Con-
flict, and Pylades.

MARSEILLES, DEC. 12.
The Gan ;e steam-packet has just arrived, with
dates from Constantinople on the 3:1.
The English squadron had arrived at Constan-
tinople. The English cavalry and that of the
Anglo-Ottoman Contingent had also arrived, and
were to winter in the neighbourhood of the Turk-
ish capital.
The accounts from the Crimea are to the 30th
ult. All military operations were suspended.
The troops were still employed in demolishing
Sebastopol, and constructing shelter for themselves
out of the ruins.

The Russians were removing from their lines.
of defence, and concentrating their troops at
Bakshi-Serai and at Siknpheropol.
The corps of the Belbek had also been reduced.

The accounts from Kertch, Eupatoria, and
from Kinbourn contain nothing new. The Russians
as well as the Allies were preparing their winter

quarters.

The Committee for cutting the canal through
the Isthmus of Sues wae introduced to the Vice•
toy. The preliminary works and surveys were
almost completed. The Committee will report.
M. Conrad, engineer, is appointed Chairman of
the Committee. The people receive the members
of the Committee warmly.

DRESDEN, DEC. 10.

The Dresden Journal of to-day denies the news
which had come from Munich, that M. de Pford-
ten, President of the Council had left for Dresden.
It asserts that M. de Pfordten has not arrived
there, and is not expected.

The absence of M. de Pfordtea is explained by
the fact that he arrived at Wurtzburg on the Bth,
and was to pass two days there, and then return
to Munich.

TURKEY.

CONSTANTINOPLE, June 25.—We are still, unfor-
tunately, without any news of a decisive character
from the Crimea.

Yesterday, about 9 a.m., the Grand Vizier, Ali
Pacha, arrived here (via arna), from Vienna, and
repaired directly from the steamer to the Imperial
Palace, where he met with a most gracious reception
and hearty welcome from his young Sovereign.
Later in the day the Prime Minister, escorted by the
Sheik-Islam and the Chief Chamberlain of the Im-
perial Palace, proceeded to the Porte, where the
ministers and all the great functionaries of state
were in attendance. Fauad Pasha, Minister of Fo-
reign Affairs, read aloud in the great council cham-
ber the Imperial Hat of investiture, and Ali Pacha
received the warm and heartfelt congratulations of
all the assembly on his elevation to the highest
dignity under the crown. He is, it is generally
admitted, in many respects one of the most re-
markable men in the Sultan's administration ; and
having been for twenty-five years in constant and
active service at the Palace, is necessarily well
versed in all relating to the foreign relations of
Turkey with European states.
Reschid Pacha and Mehemet Ali Pacha are still
in retirement ; and the latter is on the very best
terms with the new Prime Minister. There is,
however, an almost insurmountable obstacle to his
return to power at the present moment, and a pro-
mise to that effect has been given to some one by
the Sultan, it is rumoured, although necessarily
disposed to favour him, were it only for the sake
of his wife, the Princess Adile. Colonel Cannon
(Baron Pacha) is still at Constantinople at this
most critical conjuncture.

THE MOORS.

For many years we do not recollect such a fine ap-
pearance of game at this early season of the year. The
grouse are both numerous and strong on the wing, and
should other 14 days of good weather continue the
young will be able to take care of themselves ; and
those southern friends who may visit us this season may
depend on good sport in all districts of the county, from
Thurso to Ord.—North. British Daily Mail.
Is it true that disease is among the grouse this season ?
Have the birds bred well or not this year ? Will the
young broods be strong on the 12th of August ? These
aro questions we have heard asked so often that we
propose answering them, for the information of a large
number of gentlemen who annually throw off the dust
of official life for a time on the heath clad mountains of
Scotland. We are enabled to answer the more readily
from a great number of reports which have been kindly
brought under our notice, from gamekeepers and others
whose business it is about this period to examine the
state of the young coveys. The first question, as to
the prevalence of disease, is easily disposed of. The
tapeworm scourge, which about every seventh year
decimates the grouse, is not the disease of this
year. Wherever dead birds have been found the
cause has been owiug to their feeding too
freely on the frost-bitten heather—thus filling their
crops with food as indigestible as rotten wood. Since
the spring of 1838 no frosts have occurred to cause such
destruction to the heath, whips, and brooms as last
spring ; consequently, wherever the heather was not
covered with snow, it perished as effectually as if burned.
Regarding the second question there is generally but one
opinion, viz., that the number of eggs in the nest have
been fewer than usual, and that young broods now mus-
ter from five to seven out of every nest. On the lower
grounds they will be proportionally more plentiful than
on the high grounds, as the snow remaining long on the
higher grounds prevented the birds nesting there. But
many of those best versed in the habits of grouse
maintain that before the shooting season many
broods will find their way to the mountain tops. Of
the third point, which regards the prospect of sport in
the ensuing season, we can assure sportsmen, as the re-
sult of the extended inquiries,

Sir Michael Dillon Bellew, Bart., of Mount Bellew,
in the county of Galway, died yesterday at Rathmines.
A few days ago he received the intelligence of the death
of his fourth son, Lieutenant William Bellew, from the
effects of wounds received at the taking of the Quarries
before Sebastopol.
The paragraph which has appeared in some of the
newspapers, to the effect that her Majesty the Queen
is about to present the Crimean medal to the wounded
and invalid soldiers at Chatham, is entirely without
foundation. We hasten to contradict this report, as it
is calculated to excite expectations and consequent disap-
pointment in those brave men, whose feelings all are
most anxious to gratify.

These results will, it is hoped, be highly satis'
the meeting. '
The directors, however, cannot close this report without
reminding the members that the future prosperity of the so-
ciety, and the amount of future profits, must greatly de-
pend upon the members themselves. The directors have
succeeded in establishing an excellent system of agency,
whi;,h they feel confident will turn out efficient, and pro-
duce valuable results, but still the unpaid and earnest
agency of the members themselves, if it can only be secured.
will far exceed all other means of obtaining business. If
every member can be made to feel that to introduce one,
two, three, or more of his circle of friends to become
assured at the London Mutual, is to aid in consolidating
his own interests by building up the society, whilst it, at
the same time, benefits hisfriends by inducing them to pro-
vide for, their families, the present bonus, ample as it is,
is small compared with what may be expected at the next
division.
Messrs. Margetson, Chambers, and Davis go out of office
as directors by rotation, but are eligible, and offer them-
selves, and your directors earnestly recommend them for
re-election.
The society has safely passed through the perils of in-
fancy, and is now placed in a state of permanent security.
The funds provided to meet all claims upon it are far more
than adequate to the purpose. Every month those funds
will be augmented, and the directors refer to the'testi-
mony of the consulting actuaries as fully justifying the
expectation that by a patient continuance in the same

The financial statement from 31st December, 1853, to
31st December, 1854, was then submitted. The general
balance-sheet showed a large amount to the credit of the

subject and the director,' hid, therefore, regulated the

TURKEY.

CONSTANTINOPLE, June 25.—We are still, unfor-
tunately, without any news of a decisive character
from the Crimea.

Yesterday, about 9 a.m., the Grand Vizier, Ali
Pacha, arrived here (via Varna), from Vienna, and
repaired directly from the steamer to the Imperial
Palace, where he met with a most gracious reception
and hearty welcome from his young Sovereign.
Later in the day the Prime Minister, escorted by the
Sheik-Islam and the Chief Chamberlain of the Im-
perial Palace, proceeded to the Porte, where the
ministers and all the great functionaries of state
were in attendance. Fauad Pasha, Minister of Fo-
reign Affairs, read aloud in the great council cham-
ber the Imperial Hat of investiture, and Ali Paella
received the warm and heartfelt congratulations of
all the assembly on his elevation to the highest
dignity under the crown. He is, it is generally.
admitted, in many respects ono of the most re-
markable men in the Sultan's administration ; and
having been for twenty-five years in constant and
active service at the Palace, is necessarily well
versed in all relating to tho foreign relations of
Turkey with European states.
Reschid Pacha and Mehemet Ali Riche, are still
in retirement ; and the latter is on the very best
terms with the new Primo Minister. There is,
however, an almost insurmountable obstacle to his
return to power at the present moment, and a pro-
mise to that effect has been given to some one by
the Sultan, it is rumoured, although necessarily
disposed to favour him, were it only for the sake
of his wife, the Princes 4 Aclile. Colonel Cannon
(Baron Pacha) is still at Constantinople at this
most critical conjuncture.

GENERAL PELISSI E R'S REPORT.

The MoniteurpublisheF:4 the following report from
General Pelissier

"Head-Quarter before Sebastopol, June 22.
"Monsieur le T..diarechal—Since the capture of the
external work on the 7th of June I had rapidly
made•every arrangement to make them the basis of
our attac,k against the eneginte itself of the Karabel-
naia. We armed them Ivith powerful artillery ;
the Russian communications and place's d'armes
were tui ned to our own use ; the ground plan of
attack studied in detail—the allied armies had their
respective tasks allotted to them. The English
were to storm the great Regan, and we .were to
carry the Malakheff Tower, the redan of the Ca-
reening Bay, and the, intrenchments which cover
that extremity of the faubourg. It is superfluous,
M. le Marechal, to point out to your Excellency
what would have been the result of such an opera-
tion if it had succeeded. Since our last successes
the attitude of the enemy and the enthusiasm of
our troops promised victory. There was no time
to be lost.

" In concert with Lord Raglan, on the 17th we
poured a crushing fire into Sebastopol, especially
into the works we intended storming. At an early
hour the enemy ceased replying from the Malakhoff
and from the Redan. It is probable they were
economising their batteries and fire, and that they
did not suffer so much from the effects of our artil-
lery as we were led to presume.
" However that may be, the supericrity of our
guns confirmed us in our plan for making an assault
on the 18th, and on the night before AN a made all
the necessary arrangements for a
move-
ment on the morrow. gr4neral

" Three divisions xvie to tale part in the combat
—the divisions of 3dayran and Brunet, of the 2d
Corps ; the Divisi.on d'Autemarre of the Ist. The
division of the imperial Guard formed the reserye.
" Mayran'3 division had the right attack, and was
to carry the intrenchrnents which extend from the
