PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, DEC.
Rumours of a distressing nature relative to the
health of the Empress of Russia have been bruited
abroad to-day, and it was believed that the Court
festivities would be countermanded ; but although
the last telegraphic accounts furnish cause for
great anxiety, no immediate danger is appre-
hended. The Court festivities will therefore not
be interrupted.
The Kreutz Zeitung of this evening states that
as a new sense (meaning the interpretations) has
been given to the four points "unreservedly accepted
by the Czar," Prussia, consistently with her previous
official declarations, cannot demand more from
Russia ; or, in other words, that Prussia must
remain neutral or join Russia. Did it depend
on the dominant party, the latter course would
forthwith be adopted.
The King of Prussia was seized with a slight in-
disposition on the 7th, and has not since left his
apartments. He, however, continues to receive
the reports of his Ministers as usual.
The Correspondence of Berlin states that up to
this moment there appears no disposition on the
part of Prussia to accede to the treaty of the 2d.
Bavaria suggests a conference of the Secondary
Powers to consider of negotiations in the sense of
peace.

SAXONY

We read in the Moniteur :—" His Majesty the
King of Saxony, on succeeding to the throne, was
desirous that his accession should be notified to
the principal Courts of Europe by special Envoys,
and Baron de Kenneritz, formerly Saxon Minister
at Paris, was charged with this mission to the Em-
peror. His Majesty selected Baron de Bourgoing, a
senator, and who long represented France in Ger-
many, to convey his congratulations to the King of
Saxony on the occasion of his accession to the
throne. The Envoy of the Emperor received a
welcome at the Court of Saxony, which testifies
how sensible that Court is of this reciprocity of
courtesy, and is a fresh proof of the friendly rela-
tions which exist between the two Governments."

THE BALFIC FLEET.
REVEL, Oct. G. Biddlecombe, Master
of the Fleet, aided by the masters of the various
ships belonging thereto, having furnished to the
Board of Admiralty a sut vey of the island of Led-
sund, their lordships have conveyed to Mr. Biddle-
combe, through Sir Charles Napier, the great sa-
tisfaction they feel with respect to the exertions and
talent displayed by Mr. Biddlecombe on all occa-
sions on which he has been reported to them, and
likewise with the conduct of the masters who af-
forded their valuable assistance in completing the
survey of Ledsund. Their lordships have also ex-
pressed the great pleasure they experienced on re-
ceiving from Mr. Biddlecombe and his coadjutors
a chart of the valuable survey which they had
executed.

NARGEN, OFF REVEL, OCt. 17.—The fleet is
still lying here, with nothing to disturb the
monotony of our every-day life. The gate, which
had been blowing for several days when 1 last
wrote, ceased on the 11th ; since then we have had
the most lovely weather, equal to our 'brightest
summer days at home. Tiremorning after the
receipt of the last mail a general signal was made
i
from the flag-ship " to send n the demands for the
quantity of provisions each ship wanted to complete
72 days' supply." This led us to think we were not
going to leave this for sometime, and we now
hear the fleet is to stay at Nargen until the Ist of
November, if possible, and then go to Kiel, where
we stay until the end of December. The mail to
Dantzic last week had orders to receive tenders fos
the immediate supply of eight tons of moist sugar,
and to make inquiries how much salt beef and pork
could be bought ; so that I am inclined to think

there may be a possibility of the fleet staying
Kiel for most of the winter months.
Admiral Clads has been very busy during
the last week inspecting the different line-of-
battle ships.

ITALY.

NApr.v..s, Oct. 18.—As the war advances, the
Italians become more hopeful and the courts more
anxious.

The Austrian authorities in Italy do all they can
to keep the events of the day from being known.
In Naples some persons have been put in prison for
speaking about the possibility of the fall of Sebas-
topol ; and in Sicily the same has taken place.
The official journals in this kingdom reprint Rus-
sian accounts of events, which suit them very well,
as the authorised Gazette of the Two Sicilie,s has
long been a deposit of falsehoods and folly.
The King of Naples is paying desperate court to
the French Minister, and every effort is used in
Paris to keep good friends with the Emperor.

FRANCE.
FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING.
The following telegraphic despatches have been
received here to-day

" TRIESTE, Oct. 24, Evening.—A packet has just
arrived with accounts from Constantinople to the
16th. The Caradoc, which had arrived there
from Balaklava, stated that the bombardment
was to commence on the 16th, but other ac-
counts mention the 18th. The Turkish divi-
sion had been left at Balaklava as a reserve.
Provisions were enormously dear. The Russian
army has received considerable reinforcements.
The allied armies have already 300 pieces of cannon
iu position. The commanders of the allied armies
have, it is said, decided that immediately after the
taking of Sebastopol the expeditionary army would
return to Scutari to take up their winter quarters."
" MADRID, Oct. 23.—The King, Queen, and
the Princess of the Asturias have returned to
Madrid, in the midst of the troops and the national
guard, and salvos of artillery. The crowd collected
was considerable."

The illoniteur de rArmee published this morning
a rather lengthened list of decorations and military
medals accorded to the army of the East on the
occasion of the battle of the Alma. Generals
Canrobert, Bosquet, and Forey have been named
Grand Officers of the Legion of Honour ; Generals
Thomas, de Monat, and Paladines, Colonels de
Lavarande, Wimpffen, Forgeot, and Military In-
tendant Blanchot, Commanders. The number of
military medals accorded is 129.

A detachment of Polish volunteers has just left
Toulon for the East, where they will enter the
Ottoman service.

Neither the Madrid mails of the 20th, due yes-
terday, nor that of the 21st, due this morning, has
arrived.

The Three per Cents. closed yesterday at 76f.
sc. for the end of the month ; the Four-and-a-

LONDON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1854.

In our impression of yesterday we extracted
from the second edition of the Morning Post tele-
graphic despatches from St. Petersburg, to the
effect that on the 17th the Allies had at length
opened their fire, that the bombardment lasted
the entire day, and that the garrison had 500
killed and wounded, amongst whom was Admiral
KORNILOFF, who was stated to have been killed on
the 18th. By way of Vienna, it was also stated
that the bombardment had commenced on the
16th. As we are deprived of any reliable infor-
mation through the culpable laches of our own
Government, we must, it appears, be contented
with receiving quantum va/eat that which is ob-
tained. from Russian sources. It is quite obvious
that if similar activity were exhibited on our own
ede we might have trustworthy tidings from the
seat of war, in London and Paris, just as early
as it could be obtained at St. Peters-
burg. Unfortunately, however, it would
Seem as if everything in this country 11
were to be left to "private enterprise"—that the
authorities expected another subscription to be
opened for the purpose of expediting communica-
tions with the Crimea. If individuals are to sup-
ply the omissions and backslidings of the authori-
ties by providing from their own private resources
nurses and medical comforts, and even chaplains
for the sick and wounded soldiers, we may rea-
sonably anticipate that our postal communications
will in like manner be neglected until a fund be
obtained by -voluntary contributions to provide
for the culpable deficiencies. Possibly we may be
asked in a short time to send out Generals and
Admirals not so much given to procrastination
as those nominated by the Government, and that
the thanks of the War Minister ay be given to
those who come forward in such m a
cause ! E. we
are obliged to receive every portion of intelligence
with distrust—if its probability must be can-
vassed in the first instance
and
„lnd time
opportunity be afforded to speculators on the
Stock Exchange to enormous profits
at the expense of the community, we must be
ventented with attributing the evil to those justly
responi,ib:e, and con:•3i,leri)g that we have only to
thank our " red-tape" system for the untoward

-:: We may, in the prescnt instance, lend an easy
credence to the statement that the bombardment
Ilad actually comnlinccd on the l'itli inst. It is
a: fact which tlle Russians would, if possible,
deny ; and when it Las been acknowledged by their
6ftcial organs it has received "confirmation strong
as_ proofs of Hely Writ." We may also believe
that at least 500 Russians were placed "hors de

COURT-MARTIAL.

A court-martial was held on board the Victory in
Portsmouth harbour yesterday, to try Mr. David Or-
mond West, assistant-surgeon of her Majesty's ship Vic-
tory, •n charges of drunkenness and disobedience of
orders, which charges were declared proved, and the
prisoner was sentenced to receive three months' isopri.
sonment in the county gaol and to be dismissed from her
Majesty's service.
London, England, 1854-10-26

MILITARY.

As stated in Tkc Sun of yesterday, the 72d Righ•
Landers disembarked on Tuesday at Kingstown harbour.
The Alps steamer, with the regiment on board, arrived
at 1 o'clock the same morning, but the troops, of coarse,
remained on board until daylight, and at 10 o'clock they
ppoceeded by train to Dublin. It is reported that they
are destined for immediate service in the East. Even
among the "picked" of the Highland regiments it
would be difficult to find a finer body of men than the
"Duke of Albany's." There is net apparently among
the privates a man whose stature does not exceed 5 feet
7 inches; the average height of the whole corps ranging,
perhaps. between 5 feet 9 inches and 5 feet 10 inches.
After disembarking, the regiment =roiled through
Dublin, en route to the railway station at Kingebridge,
and, to judge by their appearance and bearing, one
would be led to suppose that they had just turned fresh
out of barracks for the purpose of inspection, instead of
being but a few hours released from a transport-ship,
with all the hardships incidental to a voyage acres, the
Atlantic. The 72d wear the "trews," but the head-
dress is the same as the 42d and the other kilted regi-
ments.

CAPTAIN A. MACDONALD.-1 report has been cireu-
lated in Kilkenny for the past few days that this officer
had died of his wounds in the Crimea. We (Moderator)
are happyto be enabled to contradict this rumour, which
arose from one of the deceased officers having borne the
same family name. Captain Macdonald was progressing;
most favourably, as appears by the following character-
istic remark of his gallant father, Lieutenant-General
Macdonald, in a letter just received by E. Smitwick,
Esq. : "I have had good accounts of ray two lone in
the Crimea. The eldest was able to keep the field, and
his wound was doing wall when he last wrote on the
28th of September—probably better than if he had
allowed himself to be packed off with the others to Con-
stantinople. Besides, there are hard knocks and much
work yet before them, and I must only trust that vio-
tory may attend them, and my boys be spared."

DREADFUL FIRE AT

LIVERPOOL.

(BY MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH.)
(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY, 2 P.M.

At neon this day a fire broke out in the large
block of warehouses, Launcelut's-hey, and is still
raging. They contain cotton, tallow, oil, and tur-
pentine. An explosion took place at 2 o'clock, and
great fears are entertained that all the warehouses
and their contents will be entirely destroyed.

ITALY.

NAPLES, Oct. 18.—As the war advances, the
Italians become more hopeful and the courts more
anxious.

The Austrian authorities in Italy do all they can
to keep the events of the day from being known.
In Naples some persons have been put in prison for
speaking about the possibility of the fall of Sebas-
topol ; and in Sicily the same has taken place.
The official journals in this kingdom reprint Rus-
sian accounts of events, which suit them very well,
as the authorised Gazette of the Two Sicilies has
long been a deposit of falsehoods and folly.
The King of Naples is paying desperate court to
the French Minister, and every effort is used in
Paris to keep good friends with the Emperor.

FRANCE.
(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING.
The following telegraphic despatches have been
received here to-day :

TRIESTE, Oct. 24, Evening.—A packet has just
arriud with accounts from Constantinople to the
10Tt7 The Caradoc, which had arrived there
from Balaklava, stated that the bombardment
was to commence on the 16th, but other ac-
counts mention the 18th. The Turkish divi-
sion had been left at Balaklava as a reserve.
Provisions were enormously dear. The Russian
army has received considerable reinforcements.
The allied armies have already 300 pieces of cannon
in position. The commanders of the allied armies
have, it is said, decided that immediately after the
taking of Sebastopol the expeditionary army would
return to Scutari to take up their winter quarters."
" MADRID, Oct. 23.—The King, Queen, and
the Princess of the Asturias have returned to
Madrid, in the midst of the troops and the national
guard, and salvos of artillery. The crowd collected
was considerable."
The Moniteur de l' Armee published this morning
a rather lengthened list of decorations and military
medals accorded to the army of the East on the
occasion of the battle of the Alma. Generals
Canrobert, Bosquet, and Forey have been named
Grand Officers of the Legion of Honour ; Generals
Thomas, de Monat, and Paladines, Colonels de
Lavarande, Wimpifen, Forgeot, and Military In-
tendant Blanchot, Commanders. The number of
military medals accorded is 129.
A detachment of Polish volunteers has just left
Toulon for the East, where they will enter the
Ottoman service.

Neither the Madrid mails of the 20th, due yes-
terday, nor that of the 21st, due this morning, has
arrived.
The Three per Cents. closed yesterday at 76f.
sc. for the end of the month ; the Four-and-a-
Half per Cents. at 98f. 60c. ; and the New Loan
at 75f. 95c. ; Orleans Railway Shares, 1,215 f. ;
Rouen, 990 f. ; Havre, 570 f. ; Great Northern,
885 f. ; Strasburg, 846 f. 25c. ; New Shares, 657 f.
50c. ; Paris and Lyons, 1,060 f. ; Lyons to the
Mediterranean, 862 f. 50c. ; Western of France,
677 f. 50c ; Bordeaux and Cette, 622 f. 50c. ; Great
Central of France, 528 f. 75c. ; Lyons and Geneva,
538 f. 75c. ; Bank of Credit Mobilier, 788 f. 750.

was opposed.

Joseph Farrell, the bank clerk, indicted for defrauding
the Bank of England of a large sum of money by means
of forged dividend warrants, pleaded guilty to one of the
indictments which charged him with embezzlement.
Sentence was postponed.

The Rev. Hugh Pollard TVillougliby was indicted for
feloniously shooting at Mr. Hardinge Stanley Gifford,
the barrister, with intent to murder him.
Mr. M`Murdo, the surgeon of Newgate, and Dr.
Forbes Winslow, were examined as to the sanity of the
prisoner.

The Jury returned a verdict of "Nut guilty," on the
ground of insanity."

STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Manchester (,Mardian of yesterday.)
MANCHESTER, Oct. 24.—The difficulty of soiling shirt-
ings, snadapollams, and jacenets, together with printing
cloths from 60 reeds downward, has been greater to-day
than it had previously been ; prices are consequently
increasingly irregular snd adverse to sellers. The better
qualities of printing cloths continue in a relatively bet-
ter position than the lower. Long•cloths, T's and some
sorts of domestics, are in fair request. Taking the goods
market on the whole, however, it betrays a tendency to
a further restriction. In yarns there has been for some
days a demand for warps and pincops as a winter supply
for Holland. This continues, though scarcely in the
same degree ; and there is still some purchasing of mule
twist fur India. But, as a general characteristic, the
dullness is sensibly greater in yarns than it was before.
The inclination of prices is rather against spinners ; and,
in some descriptions, the buyer has as advantage of id.
per lb., as compared with this day week ; though, on
the whole, a remarkable degree of steadiness is main-
tained. Spinners appear as yet to be under no neces-
sity to press sales.
HALIFAX, Oct. 21.—The trade in our Piece Hall does
not show any signs of improvement, and there is scarcely
any demand for either plain er fancy goods. Yarns
and wools remain pretty much. as they were.
ROCHDALE, Oct. 23.—We have had a steady demand
for flannels, at prices much the same as those that hare
been given for these few weeks past. In wool the prices
are firm, and the demand moderate.
HUDDERSFIELD, Oct. 24.—The market has been
very flat, scarcely anything doing in the Cloth Hall.
The warehouses have also beets quieter than for a long
time past. The rise in the price of corn, and the un-
certain state of commercial affairs, have tended to throw
a gloom over the market, and prevent that activity in
the autumn trade which was confidently expected a few
weeks ago. The wool market, like that of manufactured
goods, has been flat.

Tnn GALL or LIST WEIK.—BIIIELDS, Oct. 24.
We have now moderate wind, fine weather. and a calm
sea. A considerable fleet of light colliers have reached
the northern ports, and the harbours have also been
tolerably cleared of laden ♦essels detained by the bad
wea,ther of last week. The weather and state of the sea •
are favourable to the operations for the recovery of the '
vessels stranded on the Yorkshire and Lincolnshire
coasts by the terrible gale of this night week, and hopes
are entertained that the loss of the north country ship-
ping property will be less serious than was at one time
anticipated. Several vessels have been already got off,
among which are the Bosphorus, the llebe, and the
Hamilton, belonging to this port ; the Essay, of Sun-
derland ; the Nicholas Wood, screw collier, and six or
eight other craft whose names are not reported. Five
or six sail of vessels, timber laden, from America, got
ashore in the gale ; the Emporium, as already re-
ported, was wrecked near Robin Hoed's Bay, on the
Yorkshire coast, and the master, his see, the cook,
and the apprentice was drowned. She appears to
have broken up. The Regent, of this port, which was
bringing timber from British America to Grimsby, and
had 21 of the shipwrecked crew of the Devonport on
board, whom they picked up on the banks of Newfound-
land, stranded, but, we are informed by telegraph, is
likely to be got off, with her cargo. The Niagara tim-
ber laden, which went ashore at Hendon, nenr Sunder-
land, in the gale, will also be recovered for the owners
and underwriters. The Ocean Queen, another timber-
laden
vessel, which broke from her anchor and ran out
if Sunderland Roads in the gale, is reported to have
found a safe roadstead. As anticipated, the reports
brorght in by vessels which weathered out the gale at
eta are less favourable, and it is to he feared that corns
vessels have gone down in the storm outside and
drowned all bands. The brig Favourite has passed a
seaman's chest, some oars and spars, north-west of
Flamborough Head ; the Northumberland screw collier
has also passed through a quantity of furniture off the
Spurn, and the bodies of five seamen an i papers belong-
ing to the Norwegian schooner Tanager have been cast
ashore near Grimsby. Mr. Watts, master of the Rugby,
of Stockton, from Quebec, al.o reports passing a quan-
tity of sleepers aid water-casks off the Doggerbank
this night week.
JornicAw Kans.—Plymouth, Wednesday,—The Afri-
can Steam Navigation Company's ship Bacchante, Cap-
tain Drury, sailed last evening fer. Madeira, Teneriffe,
and the West Coast of Africa. She has a large number
of passengers and a general cargo of manufactured goods
including a qualtity of specie for the Coast. The next
mail home is expected about the 15th of November by
the Forerunner, Captain Johnsen. Ifer successor is the
Ethiope, Captain Barnwell, which left Plymouth on the
' 24th of September, and is now probably at Sierra Leone,
going down the Coast.

CRIMINAZ COURT-(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURT.

(Before the Lord Chief Baron and Mr. Justice Maule.)
Mr. Clarkson applied to the Court to postpone the
trial of the Rev. Mr. Ferguson, a Roman Catholic priest,
for having solemnised a marriage in an illegal manner
and contrary to the provisions of the Dissenters' Mar-
riage Act, to the next session, on the ground that the
hill had only been found on the previous day, and, as
the question was likely to involve important points of
law, there had not been sufficient time to prepare the
defence.

Mr. Bodkin opposed the application, which was
ordered to stand over until affidavits were laid before the
Court stating the grounds on which the postponement

RUSSIA.

MARCH OF THE RUSSIAN GUARDS.
A letter from St. Petersburg thus describes the
last ceremony in which the Czar €gured in public :
—" The reserve of the Imperial Guard, composed
of 30,000 men, has just been placed on a war foot-
ing. The Emperor has reviewed them, and has
availed himself of the opportunity to bless, at the
head of his troops, the two Grand Dukes Michael
and Nicho'as, who, it is said, are to join the active
army. The benediction took place with much
pomp. The two Grand Dukes went on their knees
to receive it, and all the troops also knelt."
A despatch of the 23d states that the Czar's
eldest son, the Grand Duke Alexander, had left
St. Petersburg to ji.in the guards on their march
to Warsaw, their new head-quarters.
The Journal de St. Petersbourg, of the 15th, an-
nounces that by an ukase Prince Menschikoff is
appointed Commander-in-Chief and Governor of
all the Imperial forces in the Crimea. The same
ukase appoints General Tcheodjeff, hitherto com-
manding the 6th corps, to the command of all re-
serve infantry troops • and gives the 6th corps to
General Prince Gortschakoff 111., a brother of the
hero of the Danube.

We read
.in the Corriere Italian., of Vienna, of
the 21st :—" Letters from St. Petersburg state
that the relations between Count V. Esterhazy and
the Russian Cabinet become every day colder. It
is known that Austria is, though not the declared
enemy, the adversary of Russian policy. An in-
significant formality alone prevents a formal rup-
ture between Russia and Austria, and for a long
time Count Esterhazy has, by the restriction of
relations to official etiquette, been made to feel the
rupture is approaching."
