BOSTON-JAN. 18.

A large attendance of farmers and dealers, and a good
supply of all kinds of grain. In the wheat trade great
dulness prevailed, and to effect sales a reduction of 3s to,
in some instances, 4s per qr. had to be submitted to. Bar-
ley a slow sale, and is to 2s per qr. cheaper than on this
day se'nnight. Oats, beans, and peas as last noted.

SPAIN.

A telegraphic despatch from Madrid, dated
Jan. 14, says the opposition was then signing a
memorial representing the political situation as
grave. The immediate meeting of the Cortes was
demanded. They would have probably met ere
then, but for the accouchement of the Queen, and
the illness of the President of the Council.
The herald°, of the 14th, states that there is no
truth in a report set afloat by the opposition jour-
nals, to the effect that the government had intended
to dismiss the public prosecutor charged to watch
over the press but had refrained from doing so
owing to the difficulty of getting any person to ac-
cept the place.
The same journal asserts that it is not true that
the police have been making any minute researches
after arms, as it has no peculiar reason to expect a
disturbance of public order.
The Queen had so far recovered that it was not
considered necessary to issue any further bulletins.
A letter says :—" The opposition, profiting by
the forced inaction of the government, in con-
sequence of the confinement of the Queen and the
sickness of the President of the Council, are signing
an address to the Queen, representing the political
situation as very grave, and praying for an imme-
diate assembling of the Cortes. A deputation of
the opposition is to present the address to the Pre-
sident of the Council, and also to the Queen, if
her Majesty will permit it. It is said that the ad-
dress has been drawn up by M. Los Rios Rosas.
It was agreed to in a meeting held yesterday, and
is signed by M. O'Donnell, General Coucha, M.
Gonzales Bravo, and other political nu ta bi 1 i ties.
The ambassador of France has become perfectly
convalescent."

Though there was a falling off in the import of sea-
borne house coals in 1853, it was nearly compensated by
the quantity (94,000 tons) brought by railway from the
county of Durham.

There has been an increase in the steam, gas, coking,
and manufacturing coals, which are chiefly shipped from
the Tyne. The following quantities have been shipped
from the chief colliers in that river :

Tons. Tons.

Of cannel coal there was shipped from the Tyne in
1853, 27,000 tons, more than treble the quantity in 1852.

With regford to these facts, the Newcastle Chronicle
says It will doubtless cause surprise to many in
London to find that they have been, by the simple Ac-
tion and demand, compelled to pay from 25 to 100 per
cent. more for their coals in 1853 than in 1852, though
the quantity sent to London in 1853 was in excess
284,736 tons—the total annual supply from all sources
having reached 4,026,985 tons."

MONTENEGRO.

The Agramer Zeitung has the important intelli-
gence from the Montenegrin frontier, that on the
21st inst. Prince Danilo collected his contingents
in order to make a descent into the Turkish terri-
tory. It is not known which point will be attacked,
but probably Antivari and Zabljak. All the de-
partments are in, commotion ; 800 Turkish volun-
teers have gone to the defence of the fortress of
Sputz, and eight heavy cannons have been set up
on the cliffs of Vranjina.
A letter from Cattaro, of the 23d ult., in the
Austrian Correspondence, explains the cause of the
hostile demonstrations of Prince Danilo above
mentioned. This letter says that on the 19th ult.
1,000 Turks attacked the Montenegrin districts of
Berda Piperi, and Bielopavljevich. The Berths
and Montenegrins forced the Turks back over the
frontiers towards Sputz, but fell into an ambush,
and lost six killed and forty wounded. It is said
that there were a great number of Montenegrin
fugitives with the Turks. The repeated forays and
aggressions of the Montenegrins have not been sup-
ported from either Cettigne or Cattaro ; and though
only of a local and isolated nature, called for repri-
sals from the side of the Turks ; otherwise there
would be no. end to these disturbances. Osman
Pacha has therefore directed a force of regular
Turkish troops to Podgorizza and Sputz. Ragib
Pacha, the newly-appointed Pacha of Scutari, has
arrived there ; and eight new battalions, it is un-
derstood, are to follow him.

toltowing letter shows that for the widows of those brave men
who perished with their Colonel in the Europa transport, ample pro-
vision was made, and that the measures adopthd for their relief
have fully satisfied the officer commanding the depot of the Ennis-
:—

"Canterbury Barracks, July 13, 1854.
" Sir;—.l have the honour to acknowledge, with many thanks, the
receipt of your memorandum, detailing the amount of the donation
granted by the Association, of which you are the honorary Secre-
tary, to the widows and orphans of the five non-commissioned
officers and men of the Enniskilling Dragoons, who were lost in the
Europa transport. .
" The ready and liberal hid thus sent to their relief will, I trust, be
effectual to alleviate in some degree their distress; and it marks,
too, in a way for which I am most grateful, how deeply the Com-
mittee of your admirable Association appreciate the bravery and
noble conduct of these who stood by their colon,' to the la.t.
".Sure I am, from private accounts which I have received, that
had al on board done their duty as manfully as those who perished,
there would not have been a We lost in the Europa.
I" I have n at failed to communicate to the officer eimmantfinX the
regiment hi Turkey the liberality with which Woe Association have
met any application for assistance to the surviving families by A grant
of 4151.
"I am glad, too, to expre,s my sense of tho admirable arranv-
ments of the Society, by which the a tribution of this sun kai been
entrusted to the persons best able to judge o, the most judicious
means of administering, in each individual case, to the permanent
relief of the sufferers.

" I have the ho 'our to be, Sir,

mother both died of cholera in Turkey r•. most distressing case. A
weekly allowance granted to the orphan's grandfather, with whom
the boy was left.

For the five widows and children of the 6th Enntskillings, annui-

For the other widows, donations, varying from M. to 101. have
been granted immediately on the receipt of official notification of
their husbands' deaths. Most of them were already on the books of
the Assoclatl as, and had been reeving relief for seine time ; it is

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, Oct. 2.--The Austrian Correspondence
of this evening confirms the. sum and substance of
the two Bucharest despatches of the 30th, adding
that "it is necessary to remark that none of the
home or foreign authorities had -received an official
commuication from Constantinople on the subject
of this all-important event ; but it was there sup-
posed that the respective despatches were -enclosed
in the parcel addressed to Omer Pacha, and that
they would probably be sent back from Silistria,
whither the Sirdar had gone on the following day
(Ist of October)."
From a Russian source I also learned that Prince
Gortschakoff,° the Russian ambassador here, has
likewise received confirmatory adviccs of the
splendid victories of the allies in the Crimea. Ac-
cording to these accounts, it would appear that
from the 18th to the 25th of September there had
been a continual, succession of battles, in all of
which the Russians were thoroughly well beaten,
until at last they were literally dispersed and an-
nihilated. It appears also that the Russian line-
of-battle ship the Svatft Selo (Corpus Christi) was
the first that was blown up • and further, that the
temporary hospitals of the ;Hies, after the last en-
gagements, were, fortunately for them, pitched at
Kronsthal, near the small river Bukalek, where
there happens to be a German colony, consisting
of al•out 300 families, whose efficient assistance
will have been a great boon to the wounded
soldiers. '
London, England, 1854-10-06

RUSSIA.

The Rus-sian Invalid, with infinitely more tact
and discretion than the Prussian-Russian echo,
contents itself with announcing in a few words the
lauding of the allies. It makes no absurd boastings,
such as wo read in the Berlin Russian journal, and
wisely thinks that silence is the more prudent plan.
In its edition of the 23d it merely says :

"A report from Prince Menschikoff, dated Sebasto-
pol, Sept. 18th, has been received this day, The state
of affairs in the Crimea has not changed. The enemy's
troops, which have been landed, and whose numbers are
not exactly known, but which are very considerable,
have not made any forward movement from the land-
ing place. Our forces have taken up a position upon
the river Alma, near the village of Burliuk."
The Pritssian Correspondence, of October 1,
says :—" A letter from Warsaw states that
fresh supplies have been called for by the Rus-
sian Government for the army. The possessors
of noblemen's property in the kingdom of Po-
land are to furnish 300,000 bushels of flour
and 300,000 of bran, the price of which is to
be paid, one halt iu ready money, and the other
half in deductions of taxes. It is inferred from
this requisition that the troops of the kingdom
of Poland are to be greatly augmented. Mean-
while, it is said that the southern part of the
country is altogether deprived of troops. The Cos-
saCks who were previously distributed amongst
the frontier towns, have returned to their regi-
ments, and there only remain in the chief towns of
the various districts the number necessary for the
execution of the orders of the civil authorities, of
whom the Cossacks are always the agents."
The Hamburg News contains a letter from St.
Petersburg of the 25th ult., which says :
" A great portion of the troops of the guard
have just quitted this place. On the 17th, the
Emperor proceeded to Zarskoge-Leld, and passed
in review the regiment of hussars, the body-
guard, a detachment of the artillery of the
guard, a battery of the Cossacks of the Don, as
well as the batteries of the depot of the guard
and the 7th brigade of artillery. These troops
afterwards set out with baggage and campaign
equipments. The Emperor expressed great sa-
tisfaction at the appearance of the men, to each
of whom was distributed a gratification of one
rouble. It is certain that all these troops are
not proceeding to Warsaw. A part of them are
intended to defend the provinces of the Baltic
against any eventual attacks of the English and
French fleets. The rest are proceeding into the
kingdom of Poland, and particularly on the Aus-
trian frontier, a fact which shows that Russia is
not altogether at ease with respect to the attitude
of Austria."

MILITARY.

160 men of the 31th Regiment marched into Portsmouth
yard on Wednesday, and embarked on board the transport
Gomelza, to join the regiment at Corfu.

DUBLIN, OCT. S.—TROOPS FOR TUE EAST.—At a few
minutes before one o'clock yesterday, drafts of 180 men
and four officers from the depot of the 62d Regiment at
Belfast, and GO men and two officers from the depot of the
3cl Buffs at Newry, arrived at the Drogheda terminus.
They were marched to the Beggar's-bush and Linen-hall
barracks, where they will be quartered whilst awaiting
embarkation to join their regiments in the East.
GUERNSEY.—The Duke of Cornwall steamer has ar-
rived hero, having on board the depot of the G7th Regi-
ment, under the command of Major Deverell (brevet lieu-
tenant-colonel), to replace the depot of the 6Gth.

The Stamp-office have given notico that allowances
for stamps rendered obsolete, by the new act, which
comes into operation on Wednesday next, the 11th inst.,
will be made on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays,
from the 12th of October to the 4th of April next in-
clusive.
The project mentioned on Tuesday for establishing an
emigrants' home at Tilbury is stated to have the active
support of the lessees of the Tilbury line, Messrs. Peto,
Betts, and Brassy, and of the leading shipping firms.

HANOVER.

The Hanover Gazette, of the 3d, publishes a
telegraphic despatch from Vienna, addressed, it is
said, to the Secretary of the King by the Earl of
Westmoreland, and received on the 2d, which
says :—" Sebastopol is taken. 18,000 Russians
have been killed, and 20,000 have been made pri-
soners. Fort Constantine blew up, and all the other
forts were taken, with 200 guns. Six ships of the
line 'were sunk. Six hours have been given to
Prince Menschikoff to surrender the rest of the
fleet." This, coming from the British ambassador
at Vienna, would be very important if it wero not
precisely the same as the despatch communicated
by Baron de Bourquoney to the French Govern-
ment, in which the source was indicated.

THE BALTIC.

RUMOURED ATTACK OF SWEABORG.

In a letter received from Paris this morning, we
find the following important announcement:—"You
are aware that an unusual movement has recently
taken place in the fleets in the Baltic, and that
after the French squadron had been ordered back
to France, and had come as far as Kiel on its
way homewards, Admiral Parseval-Deschenes re-
ceived counter-orders, and was ordered again to
foist the fleet of Admiral Napier. It is understood
that the united fleets are not to attack either Revel
or Cronstadt, as has been stated, but Sweaborg.
The fact was announced yesterday by a great diplo-
matic personage, who ought to be well informed as
'to what is doing."

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, Oct. 3.—The Cologne Gazette, under
date of Berlin, 2d, says :—" It is positively stated
that our Government has protested at St. Peters-
burg against the increasing obstacles thrown in the
way of commercial relations on the frontier, and
that, following the example of Austria as regards
the Danube, Prussia puts forth her rights in respect,
to the navigation of the Vistula. There is reason
to hope that the protocol of London, relative to
the Danish succession which was imposed by force
on Prussia, will in the end have its turn also."
in •
A Berlin letter, the Post Ampt Gazette of '
Frankfort, says :—" We learn from a good source
that the Prussian note of the 21st ult. was fol-
lowed two or three days after by a new circular
despatch, addressed to the German Governments.
It is said that it recapitulates, in a general manner,
the assertions of the note of the 21st.
The following extracts from the Berlin National,
the journal which of all others in Germany has
treated the Oriental question with the greatest
sagacity, shows the effect produced on this side the
Rhine by the indisputable rout of the Russians on
the Alma, and the conviction that Sebastopol has
fallen, or must fall, forthwith
"The exchanges of civilised Europe regard each
victory gained over Russia, each defeat sustained by
the Russians, as favourable intelligence. The more
Russia's political and military credit falls, the more the
value of securities and Government stocks rise at Ber-
lin and Vienna, as at London and Paris. Prince Men-
schikoff, the principal instigator of the crisis with Russia,
intended to envelope Turkey, so as if possible to
produce its ruin, and out of which a crisis for Russia's
power itself has emanated, conducts the defence of
the Crimea—of the eye wherewith Russia watches
the East. It will be proved whether the General Men-
schikoff can effect %ore than did the diplomatist Men-
schikoff, with his menaces, his contemptuous conduct,
and his pretensions in the spring last year at Constanti-
nople, over the then apparently defenceless and de-
serted Porte. Menschikoff is not unacquainted with
war, and has been fortunate. In the campaign of
1828 he was to conduct the siege of Varna, but was
wounded on the 29th of August by a cannon ball in
the hip, and was obliged to retire. When he recovered
he was entrusted with the command of the troops
which were carried over by Admiral Greigh for the
conquest of Anapa. On the 14th of May, 1829, the
expedition appeared off that place. On the 18th the
landing took place, and began by investment, and on
the 23d it surrendered with a garrison of 3,000 men
and 85 guns. Russia did not set firm foot on the eastern
shores of the Black Sea to no purpose. The conqueror
of Anapa intended 25 years subsequently, and in the
year of the prophecy, to conquer Constantinople and
Turkey diplomatically, and to convert the Padishah into
a mediatised Russian prince. But no ; it is eye to eye.
Now comes the question of defending Sebastopol itself."

plement of men, and that this was the reason of its fl y
ing the national colours instead of the imperial flag,
which was carried by the schooner.
On landing, we found to our astonishment that no
post-horses were to be had. We therefore left the ear -
riage and luggage to the care of a soldier, and proceeded
in search of the Hotel de Londres, which we bad some
difficulty in finding, as it was in the town, at a distance
of a mile from the dockyard. We, however, enjoyed
the walk, which afforded us relief, after sitting in a close
carriage so many hours.
The town of Nikolaiev is regularly built, as indeed are
most modern cities in Russia ; the streets run at right
angles to each other, and their width, length, etc., are
fixed by decree of the Government, which takes all these
matters under its especial care.
While dinner was being prepared we enjoyed the
luxury of a good wash, of which, as may be supposed,
we were much in need, cooped and splashed as we had
been on the journey. The indifference of the people of
this country generally to the use of water appearfcl to
memost singular; indeed, I have sometimes fancied tha
they have an objection to it, for, instead of properly
washing themselves, I have seen them satisfied with
taking a mouthful of the element, which they would
spurt out upon their hands and then rub over their faces.
There must, of course, be many persons in Russia who
form exceptions to this uncleanly neglect of the use of
water ; but I speak only from the observation I was
enabled to make during my personal experience in the
country ; even in the hotels, where they profess to give
you the convenience of a washhand-stand, the basins
are of the size and shape of a pie-dish, and the ewers
like large English milk jugs.
I called the place an "hotel" at which we put up;
this title, however, it did not assume, but was satisfied
with the more modest denomination of " traktir de Lon-
dres" (which is, I suppose, a corruption of the German
" traktirhaus"), as it only professed to provide refresh-
ments. It was some time before dinner could be pre-
pared, so that we had time to take a nap, which
refreshed us. It was here that my companion pun.
chased the chain I mentioned in a preceding chapter,
greatly
which we had been recommended to procure for secure
ing our luggage behind the coupe. He was asked by
the people, who crowded round his, whether he in-
tended to put it upon the prisoner; he was much
amused at this supposition, and came and detailed the
anecdote to me with much glee and good humour.—A.
