AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, Nov. 16.—The great railroad affair is
not progressing so favourably as people hero were
inclined to believe would be the case. The specu-
lators seem inclined to hold back until they see
what the policy of this Government is iikely to be
in the Eastern question.
The last official Russian news from. the Crimea
is, that from the sth to the 9th nothing of import-
ance had occurred at Sebastopol. The Allies are
fortifying, their position on the left bank of the
Tchernaya as strongly as possible.. The bombard-
ment continues, but the breaches are always re-
paired during the night.

FRANCE.
PARIS, SUNDAY.
The following private telegraphic despatches
were received in Paris on Saturday :
" HAMBURG, 18th.—A Russian fleet composed
of 14 steamers has come as far as Dagoe, without
having fallen in with any of the ships of war of the
Allies."
" TRItSTE, 18th.—A letter from Latachia, of the
2d, states. that an insurrection had broken out in
that neighbourhood, and that the instigators, who
had been arrested, had been forcibly rescuel. The
Trieste?. Zeitung of the 10th announces that Ge-
neral Kalergi had threatened the Russian Anil a-
sador in Greece with expulsion. •iio The French
troops have left Athens."
Lord and Lady Palmerston arrived in Paris last
evening and alighted at the British Embassy.
The Moniteur remarks that the public ought to
appreciate the prudential motives which induce the
Government to abstain from making known the
number 'Of troops dispatched to the 'East. To esti-
mate the 'effective force of the army it is sufficient to
bear in' nind that the troops at the battle of the
I AIDA COngirsted of four which haYe been

successively increased ; and that two others are on
their way, without reckoning the reinforcements
sent out to fill up vacancies. The French arms
in a short time be doubled.
The Momiteur contains a decree promulgating
the treaty of extradition recently concluded be-
tween France and Portugal. The decree contains
the usual recapitulation of the offences and crimes
which fall under the operation of the treaty, and
from which, as is the custom, political offences are
excluded.

The Moniteur also has the following :--.
" VIENNA, 16.—1 t is not only on the line from Vienna
to Cronstadt that the telegraphic communications have
been suspended; posts were thrown down by the late hur-
ricane on the lines from Vienna to Berlin, and from Vienna
to Warsaw. These two lines aro no longer at work."

The Legislative Corps will probably meet on the
10th or 15th of December. The ballot for the new
French levy is 'said to be fixed for the 18th of
January.
The following order of the day was read on Sun-
day last, after the mass, to the troops of the Camp
of the South :

"Soldiers hasten to inform you that it is no longer
to the army of Lyons that we are to belong. The Emperor
has decided that we are to form the 7th Division of the
army of the East. The various staffs and the troops which
are not at the camp of the South are to be sent rapidly
to Marseilles, where vessels are being prepared for
taking our division to Constantinople. There we shall
receive orders from the Commander-in Chief of the
army of the East. The division must hold itself in readi-
ness to leave at the first notice, and I am about to make
arrangements to that effect with the General in command
of the 9th territorial Division. Soldiers ! wo have only at
present to follow the example of our brothers in arms in
the East; to observe, like them, a severe discipline in a
foreign country ; to live in good intelligence with our
Allies ; to know how to support with resignation fatigues
and privations of all kinds ; and, in fine, at the moment
of action, to display all the energy of which you are capable,
and to be ready to die, if necessary, for France, to the cry
of Vive l'Empereur I'

" Camp of the South, Nov. 12." " DULAC.
Workmen are busily employed in the first ope-
rations for establishing the camp of Sathonay.
Large wooden buildings are about to be con-
structed, and 800 windows have been already got
ready to supply them with light. The Gazette de
Lyon states that the camp is to be established in
such proportions as former camps can give no idea
of.

The Memorial des Pyrenees publishes an order
of the day of Prince Napoleon, in which he men-
tions an act of courage of Corporals Tourne and.
Pech, of the 20th light infantry ; Tourne is a na-
tive of Pau :

" Army of the East, 3d Division.
" Corporals Towne and Pech, of the 29th light infantry,
being at work in the trenches, one at eight o'clock in the
morning of the 23d, and the ether at four o'clock in the
evening of the 24th, each caught up a shell, which
had fallen among their comrades, and threw it out of
the trenches. This was an act of courage and devotedness
which does honour to these two soldiers, and which the
general commanding the division hastens to make known
to the troops under his orders.

" Before Sebastopol, 25th October.
. " NAPOLEON BONAPARTE."
The above order of the day was transmitted at
the same time to the Prefects of Basses-Pyrenees
and the Aude, to the latter of whom the colonel of
the regiment has also addressed a letter mention-
ing the fact, and begging that the heroic conduct
of Pech, who is a native a 6ougrame, in that de-
partment, may be made known to his friends, add-
ing that the Prince was so pleased with his conduct
that he invited him to dine at his table.

A letter from Port Louis, 16th August, in the
Moniteur, states that the fete of the sovereign of
France, which for the last 50 years had ceased to
be publicly celebrated there, was observed on 15th
August With great pomp. A solemn mass was
performed OIL board the Bordeaux, a fine vessel,
lying in the harbour, at which the consular agent
of France and all the French residents were present.
All the vessels in the roadstead and the colonial
Government steamers hoisted their flags, and the
English authorities took a part in all ie demon-
strations made by the French in honour of their
Emperor.
The following letter from General Canrobert to
Admiral Hamelin, written the day after the fleets
opened their fire against Sebastopol, has not hi-
therto been published :
"Before Sebastopol, Oct. 18.
"My dear Admiral,—On returning to my bivouac I
hasten to address you the thanks of the army and my 07111
thanks most especially for the vigorous assistance your
ships gave us yesterday. It adds to the long standing
debt we have contracted with the fleet, and be assured
that whoa opportunity offers we will not be slow
to pay it. I have learnt with deep regret that you have
lost two officers of your staff, and that of all the vessels that
sustained losses the Ville de Paris suffered the most. That
is an honour which belonged to the admiral's ship, and I
do not hesitate to congratulate your officers and crew. I
will not conclude this letter without saying how entirely
satisfied I am with the energetic conduct of your sailors
ashore, and the excellent spirit with which they are ani-
mated.—Receive, &c.

" CINROBERT.''
