among them. The Russians .never look after their
wounded, and on our march here (only five miles) we
foll,in with 500 wounded Russian soldiers.

. .
The battle was fought in eight of the whole fleet.
Nothing could be more excifitig than to see the succes-
sive charges of our infantry. If we had had 5,000
cavalry, we should have made prisoners of one-half of
the Russian army, and all their guns would have
fallen .to us. With the means we bad, we performed
prodigies. I have no end of trophies in the shape of
muskets, swords, helmets, &c., and in a few days I
hope to add to them considerably from the spoil of
Sebastopol. A letter I took from the pocket of a Rus-
sian officer I sent to the Admiral, thinking it might con-
tain some useful information, but the interpreter has dis-
covered it was only a love-letter from the mistress of one
of the officers, wishing him a speedy victory over the
enemy and a quick return to her arms. This dream, how-
ever, will not be realised; he was shot through the heart.
A.ll thaßussian soldiers wore long boots, which our
blee jackets prize, and each man took a pair. The mode
of measuring was somewhat novel. The sailors sat
down, and placed the soles of their shoes in opposition
with those of the dead, when, if the length corresponded,
the Muscovite was speedily unbootei. The Turkish
troops were very busy pillaging the dead ; an occupa-
tion which most of us were employed in, more or less.
I did not, however, come across any sables in my ex-
.at Sebastopol, when my China experience may avail me.

have found the peasantry very useful, and they willingly
come forward with their waggons, which we hire for the
transport of baggage, stores, &c. They are for the
most part drawn by bullocks, but there are many
drawn by dromedaries. The Russians burnt everything

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, OCT. B.—The Augsburg Alk,emeine
Zeitung has just published an interesting article,
entitled " The Thunderstorm on the Gallician
Horizon." We extract the following passage :
" Our mental vision is attracted to Cracow and
to Warsaw ; it accompanies General von Hess to
Bucharest ; and a report of his return appears to
us at present much more important than if
Prince Menschikoff bad blown up all his ships."
The writer considers the expedition against Sebas-
topol but as an episode, from which au almost in-
evitably long war between Austria and Russia will
most probably date. From the very first, Russia
has acted in a manner which indubitably proves
that she desired to provoke and to continue a con-
test that otherwise might easily have been avoided
altogether. War had not yet been declared, when
Russia marched her troops into the principalities.
The Vienna note was intentionally rendered abor-
tive by the timely expositions of Count Nesselrode.•
In like manlier Russia answered the propositions
of the Vienna Conference by ordering her troops
to cross the Danube, and to march into the
Dobrudscha.

TURKEY.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 30.—The brilliant vic-
tory of the Alma will bear a prominent place in the
annals of the British army.
Since the 22d steamers and transports have been
daily bringing down the wounded from the Crimea.
On Sunday last 270 came in the Andes, under
charge of Staff-surgeon Tyce. Since then the
Colombo has arrived with upwards of 600 ; she
towed down two transports ; whilst other ships
have been daily arriving.
In England people hear of the victory, and the
loss ; at Constantinople the welcome news is fol-
lowed by a sad reality, which we see with our own
eyes.. The scene on board the Colombo during her
passage down with so many hundred wounded
must have been terrific.

There were several British officers on board the
Colombo, all doing well, with the exception of a
lieutenant of the 47th, who was not expected to
live through the night. The colonel and major of
the 23d were on board, the former wounded in the
leg, but not very dangerously, and the latter having
lost an arm. They were, however, considered
quite out of danger. On deck some ten or twelve
English soldiers remained, more or less severely
wounded. Since then everybody has been removed
to the great hospital at Scutari, together with all
the Russians. _ .

A great many more wounded have been brought
down since Wednesday. The Courier, a trans-
port with 300 on board, went aground near Tcnikai
in the Bosphorus; she was, however, got off in the
afternoon.

On returning yesterday we met Lord Stratford
de Redcliffe, her Majesty's ambassador, who had
just stepped on shore, having come to visit the
hospital, and himself see to the state of the sick
and wounded. He was quite alone, and went over
the building with the commandant, making every
inquiry as to the wants of the men, and especially
with respect to the insufficiency of medical attend-
ance, so that we may hope soon to see this re-
medied.

One of the Russian generals died here this morn-

ing.
The French wounded, and from 300 to 400 Rus-
sians, are distributed in the hospitals of Pera,
Can idgi, Dolmabatche, Maltepe, and Rami-Tchiflik.
The Arrow has arrived from England with two
Lancaster guns on board, and proceeded immedi-
ately to Sebastopol.
The French general Thomas, who was wounded
at Alma, and transported to Constantinople, is
progressing very favourably.
A council has been named to consult about the
practical introduction of reforms into the Turkish
empire. It is named Council of the Tanzimat, and
is composed of the following persons :—President :
Aali Pacha, ex-Grand Vizir, actually governor of
Broussa. Members : Rifaat Pacha, Mehmet Rus-
chid Pacha, Htfzi Pacha, Ruchti Molla Effendi,
Fuad Effendi, Eti,em Pacha. It cannot, however,
be said that any very great results are expected to
issue from their deliberations.

STORES FOR THE EAST.

The Collier Screw Company's steamer Saxon left
Southan'apton for Constantinople yesterday, laden with
Government stores, consisting chiefly of provisions for the
British army and fleegin the East.. She will touch at Malta.
The Saxon is one of a fleet of collier screw steamers
which are building, to bring coals from Wales to South-
ampton for the mail packet companies. They will each be
able to run from Southampton to Wales, take in a cargo
of coal, and return to Southampton in a week. Two of
the ships belonging to the' collier screw-steam fleet are
built, viz., the Union and Saxon, and the :Briton, Nor-
man, Dane, and another, are building. Their engine works
and funnels are placed near the stern, so as to leave the
whole of the fore part of the ship for cargo. These steamers
will carry about 500 tons of coal. They are employed i❑
the. Constantinople trade at present because of the demand
for shipping on that line.

The Commander-in-Chief's flag has been struck on board
the Waterloo at Sheerness, the gallant Admiral having
left on seven days' leave of absence. Captain Sir Thomas
Pasley, in command of the Royal Albert, has hoisted his
Commodore's broad pendant during the leave of absence of
the gallant Admiral.
The Lords of the Admiralty are to be at Sheerness in a
few days, on an official visit to the dockyard.
The Hawke, 72, left Sheerness yesterday in tow of the
African and Fearless for Chatham, under charge of Mr,
Jackson, Assistant-Master-Attendant of that yard.

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, Oct. 9.—The Cabinet of Berlin is much
irritated at the Austrian ieply, and is preparing a
retort, which will doubtless be a sharp one.
This morning at nine o'clock his Majesty the
King arrived at Potsdam, and attended a council
of Ministers, held at the palace of Bellevue. From
thence he proceeded to Schorfheide, accompanied
by the royal princes, to attend a grand chasse,
which will last till Thursday. Th 9 President of
the Council is also invited to attend.

The loss atten,':ing the great fire which has just
devastated Memel is calculated at six millions of
dollars. Only eight streets of the town remain un-
touched.

The Journal de Franefort of the 9th, says :
"The New Gazette of Prussia recently contained a pane-
gyric of Prussian policy. We are far from placing in
doubt the penetration of the present chief of that policy,
but on the other hand we cannot deny that precisely
the contrary of what he wished to obtain has happened.
He wished, as we take pleasure in believing, to dirni-
Aii4 the Europoim crisis, but unfortunately it became

more cornOcatecl and more menacing. If Prussia
had acted as ,eriou,ly and a= energetically as Austria.
in order to make tho two groat Gern,n Powers, a:A
the rest of the nihets of the If C ,ofed-r4.tioen, a
closely•uoited whole, with retard to the Eastern ves-
tion, such a union would [lave taken place at the end of
May, or at the latest the vonmiencement ofJurie. Things
would then necessarily have taken a different turn.
would have fOund it difficult to close the ear to
the voice of all Central Europe, and the Confederation
would have acquired in all the great questions of our
Continent the influence it has so long desired."—The
letter writer then passes in review the different acts of
Prussia, and shows that they have Made matters worse
instead of better. Moreover, another consequence of its
policy is, he says, that " Austria must either make a
proposition to the Germanic Diet without Prussia, or
refrain from bringing forward the Eastern question be-
fore the Diet at all."
London, England, 1854-10-12

MISCELLANEOUS.

The Semaphore of Marseilles states that orders
have been seut out by the Sinai to the Pirmus for
the two French regiments who are there to hold
themselves ready to embark for the Crimea. On
the other hand, the Ocean of Brest announces that
the frigates which aro being armed as transports
are to carry troops to Greece.
A letter from Therapia, 29th ult., in the ni-
tem', says :—" All our wounded have arrived at
Constantinople, and have been distributed in the
hospitals prepared by the Intendance with the

co-operation of tLe ()dolman Government and the
(moll eniLvsy. The f ;res.:ght of the milital
administratiou has provided for :411 the wants of
the servic,3 with a sol ici ude deserving of the highest
praise. The principal members of the Ottolllo
Cabinet and the first aide-de-camp of the SAO
have visited our hospitals, and have expressed their
admiration at the devotedness and skill which pre;
side over the attentions with which our wounded
are surrounded."

A letter from Pesth, of the sth, states that see'
ral priests, lawyers, and landowners, have bee°
arrested there, and taken to Vienna. Amongst the
lawyers arrested are MM. Theis, Lombay, 311c1
Graffel, who occupied posts under the revolution'
ary government of Kossuth. Amongst the rumours
to which these arresrs had given rise at Pesth, No!
one that some of the persons arrested had score'
relations with Russian emissaries."
" We read in a letter from Pera of the 31311
ult.," says the Constitutionnet, " that a Polio
colonel came over to our ranks when his regiment
was opposite our troops. Many of his men
fell as if dead on the field of battle, got up as soon
as the Russians had beaten a retreat."
We read in the Moniteur :—" Several journals
have mentioned a report of the ce-sion of the prin'
cipality of Monaco to the United States. Wo are
authorised to declare that no negotiation of the
kind has exisite,d between the Prince of Monac°
and the Cabinet of Washington."
Barbes arrived in Paris.

FROM, A MEDICAL OFFICER.

Her Majesty's ship , at anchor off the forts
of Sebastopol, Sept. 25.
For the past two days I have been literally in a sea
of blood, as I have been employed attending on the
wounded Russians on the battle-field of Alma. No de-
scription I could give would realise the horrors of war
—the dead, the dying, horses, guns, carriages, pole mole
—headless trunks, bodies minus arms or legs, mutila-
tion of every sort and kind—that my blood almost
freezes at the recollection. Every available hut was
improvised into an operating theatre, and under every
disadvantage we performed the most formidable surgi-
cal operations. You may judge how expeditiously we
had to get through things when I mention that I ex-
tracted 23 balls in less than three hours. Dressings
were out of the question. Our surgical bivouacs were
readily known by the number of legs and arms strewn
around the scene of our labours. Indeed, I cannot
liken the field of battle for the two days after the fight
to anything better than an abbatoir. My assistant for
compressing arteries was the first passer-by, and when
his nerve failed hint I had to wait until some one else
came pp. I will not say much for the result of my
amputations, as directly one was concluded I laid him
on a bed of hay or straw, and left him to the vis merlica-
t rix vttturcr. In the redoubts the Russian dead lav
literally heaped on ea.eh other. Neatly all the balls I
extracted were Mirti6 ones. Report says there were
47,000 Russians on the field. They held the most
formidable position any army could occupy but the
bulldog courage of our troops overcame everything, and
in five hours they were masters of every commanding po-
sition, and the Russian hosts were in futl retreat. No
one, I believe, knows the Russian loss. I counted my-
self more then 400 Russians dead in less than three acres,
and the wounded were beyond my calculation. Their
supplications, as I passed them, were heartrending—
when I had attended one there were 20 unintelligible
supplications from those around me to give them my
surgical aid. Our soldiers behaved in the most humane
manner towards the wounded. I wish I could say as
much for the Turks. The latter attacked the retreating
Russian army, and those who were not killed by their
fire they bayonetted, and cried "Sinope !" to them. Our
army remained at Alma for two days atter the action to
attend to the wounded, and when they left there were
many of the enemy still unoperated upon. We have
sent down there to-day a line-of-battle ship to look after
the rest, but I fear death will have played gad havoc

ONTARIO, SIMCOE, AND lIIIRON RAILWAT.—We have
been furnished by our correspondent in Toronto
(Canada), with the traffic of the Ontario, Sirocoe, and
Huron Railway, commencing July 1, and also with the
corresponding traffic of last year, showing a large in•
crease this year. This line leads from Toronto to Lakes
Sitncoe and Huron, and opens up the whole of that ex-
tensive lake district,
saving no less than 400 miles in the
route from Canada to the United States of America.
The total length of this line is 97 miles, of which 63
miles are opened, and the traffic is maintained from local
bids fair to be a Profitable conceP4
sources and requirements along the line. This railway
and speaks well for
Canadian lines. We understand that the late awful
ravages of cholera in America have much affected their
passenger traffic on railways, and this line, like the rest,
has considerably suffered during the Visitation in its
locality.

LIEUT. ARTHUR WALSIIASI, OF THE Row. ARTILLERY.
—The name of this young officer, which appears its the
list of those killed in the battle of the A1111:1, will Le read
with deep emotion by many, and with painful it by
nearly ail persons in this town. Lieutenant Wu!sham
was the third s,n of Sir John Wa'sham, Bart., and
was entered at King Edward's School, at a very early
when his family came t!) reside at Bury in 1842.
After a blameless career at school, where he was much
liked both by his.F nih, a.sters and his schoolfellows, he pro-
c where he acquitted himself with
such dhe uniformd
that his sleeve was literally covered
with chevrons, of which he obtained the largest possible
number, and on leaving the Arsenal he received from
tt)N Woolwich,
creditokvt
Sir John Burgoyne, the sword of honour which is given
to the best conducted of those cadets who haw; gained
their commission in the Artillery. The energy and acti-
vity of this high spirited youth was shown last year by
his ascent of Mont Blanc under circumstances of peculiar
difficulty. And his military ardour led him to seek a post
in the army of the East, when he might have acquiesced
in his orders to join the garrison at Gibraltar.—Bury

GREECE.

Z.koona-VoLo (THESSALY), Sept. 18.—After the
late insurrection in the provinces of Albania and
Thessaly had been in the main subdued, some of
the insurrectionary bands distributed them-
selves over the mountains, occupying very strong
natural positions, from which the Turks have
been unable to dispossess them by force. The
chief of these mountain bands took up his posi-
tion in the range of Mount Pelion, the fastnesses
of which are so strong that one hundred armed
men could keep possession in spite of twenty
times that number of regular troops. A large
body of troops were marched into the above dis-
trict last week, under the command of Hussein
Pasha, with the view of dislodging the above-
named mountain band, which is commanded by
Captain Antonio, whose depredations have lately
I become unbearable, and who, in short, has now
degenerated into a simple captain of banditti,
plundering the peaceable people of the country of
their money and provisions, and committing many
acts of oppression and tyranny. Hussein Pacha
left Larissa last week at the head of about 1,000
regular troops and 400 Albanians, and after a
wearisome march between Mount Ossa and
Mount Pelion, through rugged and difficult
passes, he arrived at Zagora on the third day,
and after concerting upon the best means of clear-
ing the country of Antonio and his party, a mes-
sage was sent to the latter requiring an immediate
surrender, or else that they would be exterminated.
To that demand no reply was given, and in the
meantime Hussein Pacha retired to the other side
of Mount Peliou, over the town of Volo, the neigh-
bourhood of which was much harassed by Antonio.
In two days after a message arrived from the moun-
tain bands that they would surrender to the Eng-
lishmen upon the condition that they, the moun-
taineers, should receive a free pardon for what was
past, and that they would be embodied into the
mountain police. This was agreed to, and the
province of Thessaly may now be said to be tran-
quillised.

DREADFUL SHIP WRECK.

LOSS OF THE ARCTIC STEAM-SHIP.
Accounts have been received this morning at
Lloyd's, of the Arctic steamer, bound from Liver.
pool to New York, having been in contact, during
a thick fog, on the 26th Sept., above 65 miles N.E.
by E. of Cape Race, with the French steamer
Vesta, from Sr. Petersburg to Grandville. The
latter had 140 passengers on board, 14 of whom
and part of the crew took to the boats, and had not
been heard of, and one man was killed during the
collision. The Vesta reached St. John's on the
morning of the 30th Sept. The Arctic steamer had
185 first-class passengers, 75 second class, and a
crew of 130. The second mate, and 45 persons,
are known to have been saved ; what became of
the remainder is not positively known, but the
Arctic sank in a short time after the collision.

ABROKER CHARGED WITH FLAGRANT DISHONESTY,

The attention of the court was called to the ruinous
misconduct of a broker in the case of a lady who had
employed him to sell out and purchase stock for her.
The petitioner stated that the sum the defendant had
misappropriated was all she possessed in the world.
The petition was accompanied with a note from the
broker, and a memorandum of his receipt of the amount.
Upon the motion of Alderman Copeland, who listened
to the particulars of the case with great iniignation,
the City Solicitor was instructed to proceed against the
sureties of the accused, whose name, for obviou.s reasons,
is not yet published.
