His Highness the Maharajah Duleep Singh has
been staying at Douglas's Hotel, Edinburgh, for nearly a

being amongst us was not publicly known till yesterday,
when he drove out, accompanied by his medical atten-
dant, Dr. Logan, and others of the suite, in an open
carriage with four horses, to pay a visit to the Earl of
Morton. The appearance of the Maharajah, habited in
the brilliant costume of his rank as an Indian Sovereign,
attracted a considerable crowd as he drove along. We
understand he drove out to Dalhousie Castle, the seat
of the Governor General of India, on Tuesday last, going
over the beautiful grounds and inspecting the castle. He

in this city will only be for a few days.—North British

GOVERNMENT DESPATCHES FROM THE SEAT OF WAR.
—We extract from our weekly contemporary, the Leader,
the following excellent remarks on this subject :—" The
Duke of Newcastle does not confine his communications
to the Government papers ; the despatch received
by the Government, with respect to the landing in the
Crimea, was sent from the office of the Minister of War
to all the morning papers. Very proper ; but if the
Cabinet thus condescends to break through the routine
of secret diplomatic reserve, why not give us all the
news it gets? And if a purveyor of news, why not haVe
a newspaper? Why not a daily gazette in war time ?"
—Morning Chronicle.
THE DUKE OF•CLEVELAND AND COLONEL GARRETT.—
A correspondence between Colonel Garrett and the Duke
of Cleveland has resulted from a letter of that nobleman,
published in the morning papers of Monday. Of course
the nature of the communication is not known, but,
from the severe castigation administered to Colonel
Garrett they are not likely to have been of a very
friendly character. —Bucks Advertiser.
THE 46TH REGIMENT.— We have authority to state
that the report which has appeared in a daily paper of
the intention of this regiment to send forth a pamphlet
in its own defence is entirely unfounded.—United Ser-
vice Gazette. _

Tae BALTIC FLEET.—Some of the papers still keep
harping upon the alleged speedy return to the English
coast of the Baltic fleet under the command of Vice-
Admiral Sir Charles Napier. It may be as well, once
for all, to contradict all these statements and suppositions
of the Opposition press. The Baltic fleet will remain in
the North until the ice of the approaching winter shall
take their place of guarding the Russian ports and con-
fining the Russian navies behind their strongholds.
Even so late as yesterday it was positively stated that
the French ships of the united squadrons were actually
on their way home. If this strange news be true, it is
entirely unknown to the British Government, who have
received no intimation of any such untoward event.—
observer.

On Friday evening Mr. Frederick Peel, M.P. for
Bury, addressed his constituents for the first time since
his election, two years ago. The meeting was held at
the Brick-house, Bury, a very large building, in which
not fewer than 4,000 persons were assembled.
Sir Joseph Paxton was robbed of the sum of 1801. in
crossing from • Ilolyhead to Dublin. The thief has
escaped.
CESSPOOLS.—Emptying these is fraught with many
evils to all concei ned. Let us suggest a mode that we
have seen adopted, viz., that of first laying the drain-
pipes, then tapping the cesspool, and flushing the whole
into the sewers. A grating is affixed to the end of the
pipes to prevent passage of extraneous matter, the whole
filled in with lime and gravel.

LATEST NEWS.

THE WAR.

THE LANDING IN THE
CRIMEA.

The following is the communication which was
received with the note of the Minister of War :
"The Duke of Newcastle received late last
(Sunday) night a telegraphic message from Lord
Raglan, dated September 16.
" It states that the allied armies arrived at the
place of disembarkation near the Old Fort,
in lat. 45, at break of day upon the 14th, and be-
fore night they had succeeded in landing nearly all
their infantry and part of the artillery.
" On the 15th the swell upon the shore consi-
derably impeded operations, but some progress was
made ; and the exertions of the fleet under the
immediate command of Rear-Admiral Sir Edmund
Lyons excited the admiration of the army, and
were, in fact, above all praise.

" The surf continued on the 16th (the date of
the despatch) ; nevertheless the disembarkation of
the horses and baggage was proceeding with the
utmost rapidity.
" (The Old Fort is about 30 miles north of Se-
bastopol, and nearly 20 south of Eupatoria.)"

VIENNA, SEPT. 23.

By advices from Bucharest we are informed that
the allied forces landed on the 14th at a place
called Staroe Ukriplenie, or the Old Fort.

This place is situated in the bay of Kalamita,
about half-way between Eupatoria and Cape Lukul,
and about 30 miles north of Sebastopol.
The army was to remain in that position till
the 18th, when the troops were to march along the
coast-road on Sebastopol, in the vicinity of which
they expected to arrive on the 20th.
The siege train and heavy baggage would proba-
bly not be landed at Old Fort, but would be
carried by the fleet to some place nearer Sebas-
topol, where they could be landed under the pro..
tection of the army, and thus save the fatigue and
difficulties of conveyance by land.
