RUSSIA.

The following letter, dated Nov. 22, from the
Polish frontier, appears in the Augsburg Gazette :
"A few data respecting the Russian military forces of
the-Caucasus will be interesting at the present moment,
when the operations of Omer Pacha are drawing public
attention to the theatre of war in Asia. The Russian
provinces of the Caucasus are divided into military dis-
tricts, each of which has its chief under the superior
command of Aide-de-Camp General Mouravieff. The
general Prince Bagration Mcrukhranski, for instance, is
the chief of the troops in the Gouriel and in Mingrelia,
and these troops consist of militia, both horse and foot,
reinforced by a few regiments of Cossacks.
"The troops assembled near Akhaltzik were under the
orders of Lieut.-General Kova!evski, who has been
killed before Kars ; the army corps stationed at Erivan
is commanded by Gen. Soussloff. In Georgia, Lieut.-Ge-
neral Bebutoff commands the detachment destined to
arrest the march of the invading army under Omer
Pacha. The select troops under the conqueror of
Althaltzic and Gumri are the 19th Division of Infantry,
commanded by Lieut.-General Kozlovski 1., and consists
l
of a brigade of Carabineas, with a brigade of General
Evdokimeff's Chasseurs. This force was employed, dur-
ing the war with Schamyl, in occupying the Irontier, ,tabkust
having been replaced by militia, the troops can now
the field.
" General Bebutoff has also under his orders the 20th
Division of Infantry, similarly composed of 4 regiments.
The two divisions contain 16 battalions, whichsr iah '
c,lo not
appear sufficient for making head against On
army, the latter being 22 nattaiions, or 20,000 strong.
But the forces left as a reserve by General Mouravioll in

Imeritia, and Georgia may amount to 32 battalions,; since
there are 48 reserve battalions in the army of the Cau-
casus, not including the militia and the numerous Cossack
regulars. Still, as both these battalions and the militia
are much scattered, the Russians would not be superior
in numbers to Omer Pacba's army, if this latter were to
succeed in effecting its junctionwith the two army corps
coming to it from Batoum and Redout Kaleh. For all
that, the Sirdar's enterprise is very rash, since General
Mouravieff has time to come to the aid of General
Bebutoff with his army. Kars, it is true, would in
that case be delivered, as likewis the whole of Anatolia,
but the Turkish General would also have to:think of his
retrsat.
A letter from Poland in the Donau says:—

" Prince Beboutoff has at his disposal seven fine regi-
ments, viz., those called respectively, Tenguinsk
Navaguinski, Apcheronski ; those of the Dagbestanj of
Stavropol, Kouban, of Prince Tchernitcheff, and Prince
Woronzoff. The reserve battalions now with him form
part of the 19th, 20tb, and 21st divisions of infantry.
The prince commands moreover the greater part of the
Cossack regiments of the Caucasus, and one regiment of
dragoons."

DUBLIN, SEPT. 12.

All the troops in garrison off duty assembled yester-
day in the Fifteen Acres for field-day practice, in pursu-
ance of the general orders ; but men and officers having
heard the glorious news from Sebastopol, expressed a wish
that the,opportunity might be made an occasion to cele-
brate the great victory achieved by the allied armies in the
Crimea, and their wishes were cordially acceded to. The
troops on the ground comprised the 2d Dragoon Guards,
under the command of Col. Campbell ; the 16th Lancers,
under the command of Col. Smith ; the 15th and 96th
regiments of infantry of the line, the Cambridgeshire
and the other militia regiments in garrison. There
was also present a field battery of the Royal Artilleiy,
His Excellency the Lord-Lieutenant and suite arrived
shortly after 12 o'clock, when the review commenced.
The troops defiled before the fiag•staff, and went through
the usual manoeuvres in presence of his Excellency, and,
after a series of brilliant movements, they formed into
battalions, and fired a feu de joie of three rounds in
honour of the taking of Sebastopol. Nothing could ex-
ceed the enthusiasm of the soldiers as they marched past
the flag near which his Excellency and suite were sta-
tioned. His Excellency returned to the Viceregal Lodge
about 1 o'clock.

AUSTRIA.

The Prussian Gazette, of Sept. S, slys :—" We
can positively assert that no fact has taken place
to justify in the least the various reports of an in-
tended, or an already concluded, arrangement be-
tween Austria and the Western Powers, by which
the former was to assume a decided position against
Russia."
A letter from Vienna, of the 7th, in the Breslau
("azette, says :—" I understand that our Govern-
ment yesterday received positive intelli!,ence that
the concordate has been notified by the Holy See,
after the College of Cardinals had given it their
approbation. It will consequentlynow be published
without much delay."

A letter from Vienna of the 7th, in the Cologne
Gazette, states that the Archduke Albert, who is
now completely restored to health, has gone to
enjoy chamois hunting on the estate of the Arch-
duke John, in Styria. The same letter states that
the telegraphic communication between Balaklava
and Varna is provisionally interrupted.

KINGSTOWN.

The town and harbour of Kingstown presented yes-
terday a most animated appearance. On the news having
arrived that the Russian stronghold in tho Black Sea had
fallen everybody seemed moat anxious to show their joy,
and t express their delight. All kinds of fire-arms were
put in requisition for the purpose. The juvenile com-
munity got up fireworks—in fact, men, women, and chil-
dren were to be seen everywhere congratulating one
another and making merry on the occasion. The
yachts in harbour had all their flags flying; and between
the firing of guns and the enthusiasm of the people a
more animated scene could not well be conceived than
Kingstown presented yesterday.

THE HARVEST IN IRELAND.

DUBLIN, Wednesday Morning.—The condition
and prospects of the crops throughout a district
embracing the counties of Louth, Cavan, Monaghan,
Armagh, Tyrone, and Derry are thus described in
a communication from Mr. John Lamb, the intel-
ligent and impartial correspondent of the Northern
Whig :

" Wherever I went the harvest labour was progress.
ing most favourably, but the grain seemed to be ripening
faster than usual ; in fact, it was wLat is termed 'a hot
harvest,' and there seemed to be quite a want of hands
to cut it. There is an unusual number of women and
girls to be seen in the harvest field this year. The
dearth of hands in the south and west is much greater
than in the linen districts. The oat crop is much
better in the west, which I visited some weeks ago,
than those eastern counties that I have just been
through. This year Connaught will beat Ulster in
oats, very decidedly. On the whole, the oat crop will
not be an average o*e—nothing like the produce of
last year, so far as the north is concerned. All the
farmers I have conversed with tell me their crop of
wheat is good, and some say theirs is most excellent,
both as to quantity arid eivality—one, in particular,
whom I stopped to converse with, midway between
Banbridge and Newry. He said it was the best crop of
wheat he had gathered in for the last seven years. From
all I could learn I believe the wheat is very little in-
jured by the heavy rains. The barley is a good deal
the worse for it. A great shower of hail which fell
some two or three weeks ago did serious damage to the
crops in the county Cavan, particularly about Belturbet
the people said it was more like a shower of broken ice
than ordinary hailstones. It passed from west to east,
and extended about half a mile wide. The potato dis-
ease is nearly universal ; but, so far, it is very super-
ficial—confined mostly to the leaves. We are, I think,
likely to have a large and good crop. Even if one-
fourth should be diseased we could spare them, and have
a most abundant crop after all. The turnips and green
craps generally ere very, much better than last year.
Some farmers complain greatly of bad flax seed this
season ; but where the seed was good and the ground in
proper condition the crop is generally good ; yet there
will be a considerable portion of inferior flax—so the
scutchers report."

THE MILITIA.

The inspection of the East Norfolk Militia by Lieute-
nant-Colonel Pipon, Assistant-Adjutant-General, took
place at Great Yarmouth, on Monday morning, in re-
view order on the race course, in presence of a great
number of residents and visitors,, when the regiment
performed several battalion movements with great pre-
cision, at the same time throwing out skirmishers tc)
cover the changes of position, the ground being admir-
ably kept by the Norfolk Militia Artillery, under the
orders of Lieutenant-Colonel Astley. In the course of
the afternoon, the books, hospital, and store were in•
spected, and the regiment was paraded in heavy march-
ing order. At the conclusion of the day the following
order was issued :—" Lieutenant-Colonel Pipon, after
minutely inspecting the regiment throughout, and having
expressed his entire satisfaction with allhe has seen, and
having, moreover, stated that lie never saw men who, as
a body, were so remarkable for their neat and clean ap-
pearance as to all their appointments, has much pleasure
in intimating the same to the regiment.
The Forfarshire and Kincardineshire Militia Regi-
ment of Artillery have almost to a man volunteered to
serve in the. Mediterranean, or Gibraltar, or Malta
This Regiment is a fine body of men, 500 or 600 strong ;
and their service in the Mediterranean will permit some,
of the soldiers of the line to be stint from the Mediter-
ranean on to theseat of war.

TUSCANY AND SARDINIA.

The occurrences which have lately widened the
breach between the courts of Tuscany and Pied-
mont are thus stated in the letter of a Turin cor-
respondent :
TURIN, SEPT. 7.—Count Antonia Casati was attache
of the Sardinian legation at Constantinople. In the
month of July last he was appointed to fill the post of
the same rank at Florence. But before he proceeded
there the usual announcement was made to the Grand
Ducal Government. The cabinet of Florence replied,
that it had no objection, and that it accepted the nomi-
nation in question. At the end of July, Count Casati
repaired to Florence, but shortly after his arrival
the Duke of Casigliano, the Grand Duke's Minister
of Foreign Affairs, demanded from the head of the
Sardinian legation, the Marquis Sauli, the recall of
the young attache. He based the demand in question
on the fact that M. Casati was the son of the former
chief of the Provisional Government of Lombardy, that
as such he could not be received at court, nor would ho
be invited to the parties or balls given at the Pitti
Palace. The Marquis Sauli replied that these remarks
were somewhat late, and that, as they had not been
made opportunely, be could not consent to the recall
demanded. He added that M. Casati was only 18 years
old when the revolution broke out in Lombardy, and
that he could not on any pretext be placed in the same
position as his father ; that M. Casati being a Sardinian
subject, and in the service of the King, and having,
moreover, been already accepted as attache by the Tus-
can Government, he ought to enjoy all the rights and pri-
vileges secured to the members of all foreign legislation.
M. de Casigliano, however, insisted on his demand, and
then the Marquis Sauli requested him to be so good as to
write a note to him on the subject. It was after the
reception of this note that the King's Government sent
orders to the Marquis Sauli to quit Florence with all
the members of the legation.
The Marquis has by this time already embarked at
Leghorn, and he may arrive here at any moment, where
he is expected.
It appears that the Count of Montessuy, the French
Minister of Florence, took steps with a view to settle this
diplomatic nndel standing in an amicable manner, but
the Tuscan Government had made up its mind, and not
choosing to withdraw its demand, the Sardinian Govern-
ment was compelled, on its side, to persist in the deter-
mination it had taken.
Tuscany has hitherto been the only State in Italy in
which a minister of the King of Sardinia has resided
with a complete staff, as at Rome and Naples there are
only ojaargds d'hfigroo.

THE 2'RUCK SYSTEM-.

At the Stonehouse County Court, on Tuesday, the
judge, W. Mackwnrth Praed, E,q., in the case of James
Burke v. Thomas Cutts, gave a judgment adverse to the
paying of wages on the truck system.
Mr. Rundle appeared for the defendant.
The plaintiff is a navvy, and had been working for a
short time on the excavations at the Morice Town and
Devonport Tunnel. Defendant is a contractor.
Plaintiff stated that he asked a gauger on the works
for employment. The gauger told him a certain day on
which he could begin. There was no statement of terms.
He received a ticket the first day he worked, and with
the ticket he procured some necessaries at the shops at
Morice Town. He understood from the men that the
people were paid once a fortnight. He had several
tickets, and got provisions by means of them. He bad
worked eight or nine days, when the defendant brought
a paper to him to sign. Defendant stated it was the ar-
rangement which was signed by all the other men, and
it referred to the payment by tickets. He refused to
sign it, and was told to leave the work. The time-
keeper ttlade np the account, and handed over to him 9s.
2?,d., and plaintiff was told that ho bad bad tickets to
the amount of the remainder of the wages due to him,
14s. 9d. Plaintiff refused to be satisfied with this ao-
count, and brought an action to recover the 14s. 9d.
The plea put, in by defendant was the general issue,
and that payment had been made.
His Honour held that " payment " meant payment
in cash, and that evidently had not been made, therefore
the plea could not be sustained.
Mr. Rundle wished to amend the plea, as the plaintiff
had received full value for the money.
His Honour declined to allow the plea to be
amended, because, be stated, he could not countenance
the system of paying wages in bacon, candles, beer, &c.;
for he did not believe it would ever conduce to provi-
dent habits amongst the labouring classes.
Mr. Rundle elicited from the plaintiff that he knew
he had received quantities of goods, but he wanted his
money as well. He was ready to pay the tradesmei, for
what he had bad, provided they would
produce the
tickets be had given them.
His Honour said the parties had better arrange that
amongst themselves. He gave judgment for plaintiff.

A similar return, for the kingdom of Bavaria,
where three-fourths of the people are Roman
Catholics, is as follows :

Bavaria .

Population.
4,560,653

Legit. lllegit,
B:rths
In the Protestant states, the proportion of ille-
gitimate births to legitimate ones is a little more
than one in eight : in the Roman Catholic it is
more thln one in five.

And as there are many Protestants in Bavaria
who raise the standard of morality, and many
Romanists in Hanover, Wurtemburg, &c., who
lower the general tone of morality, we cannot
doubt that a purely Protestant state, weighed
against a purely Romish one, both situated in
Germany, would be found to have less than halt
the proportion of vice which exists iu the region
of the confessional and the conventual system.

SEWAGE OF TOWNS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Srr,—l was pleased by reading your remarks
upon the sewage matter of towns in The Siu of
Tuesday last. _ _ _

That this matter would form a highly valuable
manure there can be no doubt; although, from
many causes, it is far from easy to say which is the
best method of rendering it available for such a
purpose.

fhaye devoted much time to the sewage ques-
tion, and, as a general principle, feel compelled to
decide in favour of intercepting sewers.
The plan adopted at Paris is open to many seri-
ous objections. Iu the first place, it would be dif-
ficult, if not impossible, to construct utensils
adapted to all classes of houses.
Secondly, I fear the daily use of such utensils in
large cities would prove an intolerable nuisance,
especially during hot weather.
With a view, however, towards effecting a par-
tial adoption of the Parisian plan, I beg to suggest
that, in many cases, portable latrines, somewhat
similar to those about to be tried at Aldershott,
might answer the purpose. If with these peat
charcoal were used, a large portion of the offensive
effluvia would be deodorised, and a portable con-
densed manure obtained, which would be of great
value. _ _ _ _

As one fact is worth a dozen theories, I would
mention that Mr. Cuthill, the florist, of Camber-
well, succeeded iu completely deodorising the con-
tents of a cesspool by peat charcoal, and the manure
resulting from the experiment proved very effica-
cious.

bet me call the attention of railway directors to
the formation of portable latrines and the use cf
peat charcoal at the various stations, from which I
am sanguine a large profit would be derived.
I am, Sir, yours obediently,

THE HARVEST IN IRELAND.

DUBLIN, Wednesday Morning.—The condition
and prospects of the crops throughout a district
embracing tb e counties of Louth, Cavan, Monaghan,
.Armagh, Tyrone, and Derry are thus described in
a communication from Mr. John Lamb, the intel-
ligent and impartial correspondent of the Northern
Whig :

" Wherever I went the harvest labour was progress.
ing most favourably, but the grain seemed to be ripening
faster than usual ;in fact, it was what is termed a hot
harvest,' and there seemed to be quite a want of hands
to cut it. There is an unusual number of women and
girls to be seen in the harvest field this year. The
dearth of hands in the south and west is much greater
than in the linen districts. The oat crop is muolr
better in the west, which I visited some weeks ago,
than those eastern counties that I have just been
through. This year Connaught will beat Ulster in
oats, very decidedly. On the whole, the oat crop will
not be an average ore—nothing like the produce of
last year, so far as the north is concerned. All the
farmers I have conversed with tell me their crop of
wheat is good, and some say theirs is most excellent,
both as to quantity arid quality—one, in particular,
whom I stopped to converse with, midway between
Banbridge and Newry. He said it was the best crop of
wheat he bad gathered in for the last seven years. From
all I could learn I believe the wheat is very little in-
jured by the heavy rains. The barley is a good deal
the worse for it. A great shower of hail which fell
some two or three weeks ago did serious damage to the
crops in the county Cavan, particularly about Belturbet ;
the pople said it was more like a shower of broken ice
tha❑ ordinary hailstones. It passed from west to east,
and extended about half a mile wide. The potato dis-
ease is nearly universal ; but, so far, it is very super-
ficial—confined mostly to the leaves. We are, I think,
likely to have a large and good crop. Even if one•
fourth should be diseased we could spare them, and have
a most abundant crop after all. The turnips and green
crops generally are very much better than last year.
Some farmers complain greatly of bad flax seed this
season ; but where the seed was good and the ground in
proper condition the crop is generally good ; yet there
will be a considerable portion of inferior flax-e-so the
scutchers report."

STRICTURE of the URETHRA : its Rational
Treatment and Prompt Cure.
By F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

We belie VC! Mr. Courtenay's experience in the treatment of stric-
ture during the last twenty years has equalled,. if, indeed, it has not
surpassed, that of any of his contemporaries. It, is, therefore, no
mater of sunrise that he should enjoy the reputation of being n
most dexterous and skilful manipulator with urethral instruments ;
and when it is remembered that the lamented Liston used to assert
that the introduction of instruments through a stricture which had
previously been impermeable to them, was the most difficult in the
whole ranize of surgical operations, it must be no slight source of
:ratification on Mr. 'ourtenay's part to have achieved the reputation
he has in' this res ,ect ; and for our part, with the knowledge we have
of •his experience, we know of no man to whose care we would with
'greater confidence entrust the treatment of a severe case Of stricture
of the urethra."—Medical Circular.

GERTRUDE ; OR, FAMILY PRIDE, BY MRS. TROLLOPE.
3 VOLS.--A novel from the talented pen of Airs. Trol-
lope is sure to possess some of the most brilliant qualities
of a good novel. We may reckon on sharp, instructive,
and entertaining delineations of character. We may
further count upon rapid and decisive action, Upon start-
ling resolves and deeds, and upon sudden surprises, all
calculated to heighten the interest of the story, entwined
with each other with such consummate skill and faith-
fulness to nature as to remove all suspicion of improba-
bility from the reader's mind. In the present instance
the object at which the author aims is to place in strong
contrast with the nobility of birth the nobility of charac-
ter. The theme is. admirably, worked out, and the Ns-
tory.of Gertrude conveys as stern a lesson as the most
rigid of moralists could wish as to the folly of ancestral

THE EXCITEMENT IN BELFAST.

The Northcrn Whig thus describes the way in which
the news was received in Belfast :—" Yesterday (Mon-
day afternoon, the news that Sebastopol was at last in
the hands of the allied armies was received in this town,
for some minutes, with sceptical misgivings by the people;
but when the joyful intelligence, by the appearance of
the bulletins, had obtained the credence of the public
ear, all doubts gave place to general exultation. As each
man heard and became confirmed in the truth of the
startling information, he hastened to apprise his less
happy neighbour, and the glorious consummation of the
-iege operations became the universal subject of convex.-
-tation and mutual congratulation. In the evening the
bells of St. Anne's St. George's and Magdalene churches
rang merry peals—great crowds assembled in the streets
—guns were fired—rockets thrown up—partial illu-
minations took place, particularly at the establuiliment
~f Messrs. G. G. ee and Co., and tar barrelB were
carried through the principal streets, followed by excited
masses of the inhabitants.
