t Lagos, her Majesty's ships Scourge, Hecate,

The Royal Mail steam-ship Retriever left Goree
August Bth for. Bathurst.

Plains have been unusually heavy at Fernando
Po. The Government had approved of the burn-
ing of Old Town, Calabar, by the Antelope, Com-
mander Young, at the requisition of acting Consul
Lynlager for the infraction of the treaty abolishing
human sacrifices made by the Calabar Chiefs in
1851.

A very sanguinary affair occurred on the 17th of
July at Gambia ; the natives having broken out in
open rebellion in consequence of a man named
Fodey having gone to a native village • and seized
and carried away a man and his wife for slaves.
Fodey, being supported by Marabous, refused to
surrender to the police, who were supported by
Lieutenants Davies and Armstrong, and a small
military force. Lieutenant Armstrong was
wounded, and two soldiers made prisoneis. The
Marabous' then burned three English villages, on
which Governor O'Conner proceeded, with 260 men,
to take St. Mary's, but was waylaid by the natives,
who drove him back ivi th a loss of 30 killed and 43
wounded. Governor O'Conner then obtained the
assistance of a French man-of-war, the Entrepre-
nante, and 150 white troops, who carried the town
at the point of the bayonet, and on the 3d it totally
destroyed it. The French bad two killed and one
wounded. British none killed.
Bathurst is in a very insecure state.

PRICES CURRENT.

In. their monthly share circular of yesterday,
Messrs. James Stevens, Tripp, and Co., of Lori.-
bard-street Chambers, address their friends as fol-
lows, and their resume presents a fair idea of what
has been passing in the moneyed circles during the
last few days :
" Our prices current show a very serious decline com-
pared with those of last munth. Government stooks,
foreign stocks, railways unguaranteed as well as guaran-
teed, preference shares, land, bank, insurance, and
every description of security, excepting a few English
mines, have fallen in value. The cause must be assigned
to the pressure of the money market. On the 18th ult.
the Bank of England advanced their rate of discount from
51 to 6 per cent. for bills not having more than 60 days
to run, and to 7 per cent. on bills from 60 to 95 days.
Simultaneously the Bank of France advanced their rate
from 5 per cent. to 6 per cent. At the Stock Exchange
loans have been obtainable on Consols at 3 per cent., on
other Government securities at 4 per cent., and on
foreign stocks and shares from 5 to 7 per cent. The
reason of money being cheaper at the Stock Ex-
change than out of doors is explained by the fact
that speculative sellers for the fall have been large bor-
rowers of stock, or, in other word', lenders of money on
stock, and the public also have purchased very largely,
but mole particularly in Consols ; and hence the corn-
p IT-at ve cheapness of money and scarcity of stock with
the dealers. In commercial circles money is in re-
quest, and the returns of the Bank of England clearly
de nonstrate the necessity of the movement of the Bank.
As compared with the corresponding period of last year,
there is a decrease of gold coin and bullion of 2,135,8951.,
of re,erve notes and coin of 1,675.996/. ; whilst, on the
other hand, the advances of the Bank on paper under
d sceuet have increased 4,047,0491. The notes in actual
circulation are only 499,7751. lea than last year.
London, England, 1855-11-02

CASTING ANCHOR.

As the first ship of the English squadron cast anchor
a long line of dust was observed rising over the hilly
coast to the north of Ode,sa and by the beach,
which is lined with trees and a thick hedge of bushes,
and we soon made out bayonets glistening in the
-.en, and a strong body of Russian infantry, with
field pieces and baggage, consisting of some 5,000 or
6,000 men, marching in all haste towards the city. Two
small camps could be seen on the hill-side towards the
nat.* and a part of this column halted and encamped
outside the city. A number of meunted officers ste•
eompanied the men, and some of them rode out through
the gaps of the hedge on the beach and reconnoitred the
fleet, which was drawing up towards the harbour. The
eternal Cosacks were standing by their horses in groups
f two or three, as videttes, beside the numerous signal
and telegraph stations, which line the coast at intervals,
and are in connection with a semaphore in Odessa,which
was tossing about its arms like Niobe gone mad ; others
were galloping over the fertile steppe, appearing and
disappearing over the low lines of hills, and numerous
herds of cattle all over the country afforded proof that
ee have exaggerated the general exhaustion of the
enemy's resources, if any were needed in addition to the
prosperous appearance of all the white farmhouses and
hamlets, with their enormous stacks of hay and corn
around their homesteads. Some of the inhabitants
-.eerned to be moving away from the place by the north
read, and many waggons and carts were visible going to
and fro by the road to the northward.

ODESSA FROM THE SEA.

These barbarous Russians have a rare knack of build-
ing graceful, light, oheerful, and clean-looking cities,
which even the "Stones of Venice" might not utterly
despise, and if it be distance ix hich lends enchantment
to the view they have at least the satisfaction denied to
more civilised people of saying there is one point of
view from which their cities win the senses. As we
slowly drew up to our inevitable " five miles S. by E.
of Odessa," we passed a wonderful creation, which, com-
pared to the slow efforts of our ancient builders, seemed
almost the work of enchantment. There stood an ex-
tensive city, built on the curve of a high sea shore,
with descending terraces and broad flights of steps
to the beach, which was enclosed by broad quays
and the walls of ports and casemated batteries,
all shining brightly in the morning sun. Broad
esplanades or boulevards lined with trees towards
the sea-front ran along the top of the bank, with a
background of stately mansions worthy of the best
" rows" near the Regent's-park, and we could see a
Numerous and gaily-dressed crowd of men and women
all along the promenade, gazing on the dark clouds of
smoke which were slowly drifting in on them from the
distance. Behind and in cocain nation of this esplanade
are splendid residences, with pillared porticoes and orna-
mented peristyles, magnificent public institutions—the
temples erected by De,potiam to Civilisation in hope of
making peace with her, barracks, palaces, governor's
house, prisons, rising in front of a confused but graceful
mass of domes, column, steeples, and spires. One huge
dome is of au ultra-marine blue, and is topped by a gilt
cupola ; another is of bright green, surmounted by a
ilden star; here is a Greek temple, there a Tartaresque-
looking mosque; there an unmistakeable " little Bethel,"
tiers a Byzantine church ; again an Eastern minaret-like
spire; further on, an indubitable Sir Christopher Wren
steeple ; and next to it a grand dome and cupola, which
at once reminded you of St. Peter's or St. Paul's.

THE RUSSIAN TOG.
The fog at Odessa is worthy of the best ef-
forts of the London atmosphere in November. It
is not so rich in colour, so yellow, or so choky, but it
is equally thick and clammy. It is white in colour, and
sometimes the sun stamps a moonlike imitation of his
orb upon it, and one can see a faint indication of his
existence above in fa%ourable m iments. Now and then
you catch a dark outline of a vessel looming through
the mist ; you strain your eyes to make out your neigh-
bour, but you might as well try to pick out the details
of Turner's blubber boilers or of his phantom ships, and
as you look the vision disappeared. The water flows by
with a heavy oily roll, and the only noise to be heard is
the plash of the lazy waves against the paddle-wheels,
the bum ping of the rudder, and the creek of the odd
timber as he rubs against his fellows.
The following are extracts from a letter dated Sebas•
topol, Oct. 20 :

SURREY" TEEATEE.

"Le Danseur Comique," the prince of buffos in the
Terpsichorean art, had last night a bumper house for his
benefit at this commodious theatre. Her Majesty's
transpontene lieges showed that they were capaele of
aepreciating, and determined ti reward, distinguished
merit. The exertions of Mr. Flexmore for their gratifi-
cation, for some time pest, had deeerved their gratitude,
and they were determined to besto w the most substantial
tokens thereof —to prove beyond the possibility of doubt
that they would fully discharge the reciprocal duty of an
audience to a highly meritorious and painstaking per-
former—and well did they carry out this resolution.
Every portion of the house was crammed to suffocation.
Not only was every seat in the box, pit, and gal-
lery occupied, but even standing room was eagerly
sought fur. Flexmore showed himself an excellent
caterer for the public entertainment. There was some-
thing to suit every taste, and to insure the satisfaction
of the audience, so as to induce them to bear with un-
abated good humour the close packing to which they
had to submit. The exciting naelen?ranaa of The
Flower Girl and the Convict Marquis was first presented,
in which the inspiring influences of a " bumper house"
nn the actors was clearly perceptible. Tken came The
Dancing Scotehman—a Flexmnorean creation—which no
dancer of the day but one could venture to delineate.
Every muscle of the renowned Professor was in action.
It was literally something sup rhuman—a kind of mas-
culine "Gazelle," that would speedily have wearied to
death any person whose nerves and sinews were made
of a material less flexible and enduring than wrought
steel. how Flexmore could have gone through
the work, and afterwards excelled the Spanish dan-
cers in their own peculiar school, was really astound-
ing ; but he did so, and to the latest pas there was not
the slightest diminution of his indefatigable efforts.
He wag most ably seconded by Madlle. Auriol and
the corps de ballet. Well and energetically did she sus-
tain the distinguished position which she has achieved,
and which her performance of last evening was calculated
materially to enhance.
We cannot conclude without noticing the admirable
performances of two youthful debutantes, Madlle. Loue
and "LaPetite Leon." The former, by the exceeding grace
and ease with which she went thi ough the difficult teak
which she had undertaken, gave high promise of ver-
dant laurels hereafter to be gathered. The latter—a
mere baby of three years old—went through the pas Mac-
gregor, or Highland Fling, as in our ignorance we
should term it, with a degree of steadiness, activity, and
grace that might have put many carefully trained adults
to the blush. There was nothing but the infantine ap-
pearance to denote that a highly-fiuislied coryphee was
not before the audience. Theme were loud demands for
a repetition of the exciting performance. 'We must once
more congratulate Flexmera on the substantial results of
his extraordinary and brilliant efforts to gratify his
patrons and friends.

COLONIAL.

TEA.—The market has been quiet, and sales passed off
heavily. Common Convon Bid to Od per lb.

Ceylon brought 489 to 49s accordingly. Plantation Ceylon
fine ordinary to middling coloury, 58s to 64s 6d. i 370 bags
fine ordinary native Ceylon were offered by auction and

later period the market rose fully ls. P.Y.C. on the spot
66s Gd, and spring months 67s Gd per cwt.
Rum.—There has been rather more inquiry for this
article. Demerara, good, brought 2s 10d ; fine marks,
3s per proof gallon. Jamaica, 31 per cent. overproof,
realised 4s 2d per pllon.
GREEN FRUIT.—The market is bare from want of arri-
vals, which are kept out by contrary winds. A cargo of
oranges from Faro, offered at public sale by Keeling and
Hunt, was bought in, the offer not being equal to the limits.
New Spanish nuts in moderate demand. More inquiry for
Brazils. Some cargoes of Messina lemons are daily ex-
pected.

LORD STANLEY, M.P.

At a meeting held at Fakeuham yesterday even-

" St. James-square, Oct. 31.

THE FLEET OFF ODESSA.

The fleet must have presented a spectacle full of gran-
deur and menace to the Odessans. It extended for the
space of five miles in front of their town. A dense
array of hull and mast, yards and rigging, which seen
from shore look no doubt as if it was one unbroken net-
work of ships resting on the water. The nine line-of-
battle-ships tower aloft in the centre, and the heavy
steamer., gun-boats, bomb-vessels, and transports, to
the number of 60, filled up the intervals and extended
along the flanks of the flotilla. The esplanade in front
of a magnificent pile of public buildings wag covered
with a crowd of people, amid whom were many officers
and soldiers and well-dressed women, and the gunners
could be seen already for action inside the parapets of
the long low batteries which guard this Queen of the
Euxine. These glimpses of the city were, however, in-
frequent, and were soon denied to us altogether, for
down came the Black Sea fog and wrapped us all in his
clammy, unctuous, and chill embrace so closely that we
could not see much beyond the limits of our own ship.

London. The new piece of The Mountain Monarch,
from the pen of the late John Wilkins, has made a mcst
positive hit. To keep up the attraction Messrs. John-
son and Nelson Lee have entered into an engagement
with Mr. WV-joker, the celebrated American comedian.
Ills Yankee drolleries in Sam, Patch, have never been
equalled in this country—it is ono continued roar from
rise to fall of curtain. He appears on Monday next,
and will no doubt prove a great card for the manage-
ment. We hear other novelties are in active prepara-
tion, of a powerful nature. The bard says—"lt's not
in mortals to command success ;" -the lessee of this
theatre endeavours to deserve it.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

We had a steady demand for the few prime beasts on
sale here to-day, at foil prices, but inferior breeds were
dull, at barely Monday's currency. The supply of sheep
was limited, and in low condition. The mutton trade was
firm, at fully late rates. With calves we were scantily
supplied, and the demand for veal was brisk. In some
instances prices were 2d per 8113 s. higher than on Monday.
Pigs changed hands steadily, at full quotations.
Milch cows were dull in sale, at from 13/. to 19/. each,
including their small calf.

ADELPIII THEATRE.

Last night Peak's oncer Highly popular farce entitled
The 1001. Note was revived here with considerable sue
COB 9. Mr. Keeley played his original ehara-ter of Billy
Black, the cPnundrarn-making " boots," Mr. IludSon
Oat of O'Shaughnessy (originally perforived by the 14e
Mr. Power.), whilst the pats o Montmorency and- Kate
Arlirgton (torinerly sustained by the late celebrated
Richard Jones and Madame Veetris) were entrusted to
Mr. Shore, a debutant from the Manchester theatre, and
Miss Mary K,eley. Mr. Keeley was inimitable as ever,
and the performa:ce of Mr. Hudson in no way inferior
to that of his fanu.,us predecessor. Miss Mary Keeley,
too, did ample justice to her part, and, whether as bal-
lad,,ingtr or actress, appeared to great advantage.
The farce was preceded by the popu,ar drama of the
White Horse of the Peppers. in which Mr. Hudson exhi-
bited his usual amusing ability.
London, England, 1855-11-02

A CURIOUS SPECTACLE.

A more curious spectacle is assuredly nowhere to be
found than in the spice comprised between thelines where
our batteries were and the harbour of Sebastopol. The
ground in parts is literally paved with shot sunk in the
earth, above which their upper surface scarcely rises ;
there are ditches and trenches in which they lie as thick
as apples in a basket ; in some places numbers of them
have been buried. You see them of every size, from the
huge 68-pounder down to the diminutive grape jolly
little fellows, of a pleasant vinous appellation, but very
nasty to run against as they are passing through the
air. As to the fragments of shell, you might macada-
mise roads with them —jagged, rusty bits of iron, infi
nitely various in size and form ; one thinks, as one looks
at them, how many a stout and gallant fellow re.
ceived his quietus from some of them before they fell to
the ground after their diverging upward flight. Then
you come upon ill-treated cannon, trunnionless some,
others with muzzles knocked off, some burst into two or
three pieces, and others bearing indentations as from
clops. You walk up into the Re-
if the French sentries object
dthaen—haimntmoetrhoofmaaCiask,
hoff,
not—and you marvel at the huge dimensions of those
famous works, and feel more surprised at their having
ever become ours than at their having so long resisted
the utmost efforts of English and French—such a medley
of enormous earthworks, huge lumps of stone, heaps
upon heaps ( f shot and broken shell and damaged
guns, everything rugged and battered—a work of
giants reduced to chaos. And then the gloomy,
fetid bons, proofs, where, for so long a time, the
stubborn Russians lurked—wretched holes, worse than
most dungeons. A. minutely accurate drawing of as
much of the Malakhoff or Redan as an artist could em-
brace at a view would give a better idea of the nature of
the difficulties to be surmounted than any attempted
sketch of the fight.
The state of the town itself is the best proof of the
enormous loss the Russians must have suffered daring
this long and eventful siege, and especially towards the
close, when no
.part of the south side seems to have
escaped our projectiles. The place is literally riddled
wish shot. You coal() upon all kinds of fantastical shat-
tering—houses that stand when, according to all one's
previous notions of support and balance, they ought to
fall to the ground ; walls with huge holes through them,
roofs in rags, and everywhere, within and without the
place, the ground is ploughed up into great holes by the
bursting of shells,

FILLING UP THE TRENCHES.

Outside the town the French are hard at work level-
ling their aiegeworks, filling up trenches, &c., though
why they should take that trouble it is bard to say, un-
less they contemplate the probability of Sebastopol being
garrisoned by the allies, and they, in their turn, be-
sieged by the Russians.
RUSSIANS FIRING AT THE MALAKHOFF.
The Russians continue firing at the town, with little
reply from the French. They fire principally at Sebas-
topol proper, but now and then drop a shot or shell
into the Karabelnaia, and sometimes take the flag-staff
on the Malakhoff for their mark. It is difficult to say
why we spare them so much, unless it be that we ex-
pect them soon to walk away, and leave us their north
side forts in good order and condition, which would be
expecting rather ton much.
RUSSIAN MOTIVE FOR MAINTAINING THEIR POSITION.
Their chief motive for striving to retain their present
position would be that, if they anticipate negotiations
for peace this winter, these would be carried on more
favourably to them whilst they still have a footing in the
Crimea than if they had moved out of it, leaving us to
garrison Sebastopol and Simpheropol, and, if we choose,
to transport our army to the Danube and to Asia.

THE RUSSIAN ARMY AND ITS PROVISIONS.
On Wednesday the telegraph brought fresh informa-
tion, originating in Vienna, to our head-quarters, to the
effect that the Russians were about to abandon the north
side. At present there are no visible signs of such ap-
proaching evacuation, nor there is any probable reason
to assign for it, excepting one, which is, that the Rus-
sians find it impossible to supply their army during the
winter. On this point opinions differ much. Some
think that there wilt be no difficulty in bringing enough
supplies by the road from Perekop ; others doubt that
road being sufficient, and think also that the Russian
means of tran-port will run short. It is pretty certain
that uo large depot of provisions exists near at hand,
and also that none has ever existed, even at the com-
mencement of the siege, for last winter the Russians—
who doubtless never contemplated a siege of anything
like such duration, nor probably an attack at all by land,
and had made sure of speedily beating off any naval
force brought again4t their great fortress—had a constant
stream of supplies pou►ing into the town.
