RUSSIA.

The Fremden Blatt says that a despatch for
Prince Paskiewitch arrived at Warsaw on the
19th inst., from St. Petersburg. It instructed
'the marshal to send some of the troops of the Polish
army to Bessarabia without delay. A letter of the
13th inst., from the Polish frontier, says that there
are only two regiments of Guards iu Warsaw ; the
remainder of the Guards are in Lithuania. Be-
tween Pilica and the Prussian frontier -there are
only a few detachments of infantry. The troops
on the Gallician frontier were withdrawn from
thence, there is no question, on strategical grounds.
The correspondent concludes his letter by remark-
ing that it is the general opinion that Russia does
not contemplate an offensive movement on Gallicia,
but will be prepared for all events. The new levy,
the third in the course of this year, will be con-
cluded by the end of next month. The Russian
army contractors are ordered to have their supplies
ready for delivery by the same time, but it is not
known where these are to be delivered. " The
contractors are paid in ready money."
It is expected that the Czar will visit the army
of the south, if not that of the Crimla.
To the expected invasion of BessNabia the Rus-
sians, it is said, can oppose an effective array of
80,000.

THE WAR IN ASIA.

The Batount correspondent of the Lloyd, writing
on the 3d, says that the Russians have sent all their
disposable forces from the western side of the Cau-
casus, and from all points of the coast of the Black
Sea to Sebastopol. According to which intelligence
from Kars and Erzeroum, the whole of the Russian
troops which were engaged with Schamyl have with-
drawn to Tiflis and Erivan. It has already been
announced that the Russians have reoccupied Bay-
azid. They are concentrating at Achalkalaki,
Bayazid, and Alexandropol, and seemingly intend
to operate from these points against the Kars
army. Ismail Pacha is at Erzeroum, his head-
quarters, and is proceeding with the reorganisation
of his army.

lIIG4IETT V. LEWIS.

This was an appeal from the decision of the rev' •
barrister for Westminster..

Mr. Whitmore appeared for the appellant ; and Mr.
M'Namara for the respondent.
The only point in the case was whether the notice
•f objection sufficiently pointed out in which list of
voters a voter objected to, named Alford, was. In
borough registrations the overseers are required an-
nually to make out a list of persons supposed to be
qualified to vote, and if there be more than one list
of voters a notice of objection should specify to which
list, it referred. Two lists are made out, one of those
entitled to vote under the old franchise, and the other
of those to whom the franchise is given by the Reform
Act. The notice of objection objected to the voter's
right to vote " under the Reform Act."
The Court thought the notice good. All that was re•
*site was to describe the list, and by saying " under
the Reform Act " the list was sufficiently described.
The voter's name must therefore be expunged.

THE FRENCH REINFORCEMENTS.

We read in the Sentinelle Toulonnaise, of the
21st inst.:—
" The arrivals of vessels, coming from the Atlantic
ports and from the Levant, succeed each other without
interruption, and impart to our magnificent roadsted
an extraordinary animation, which reminds lie of the
formidable preparations made last March, whin our fleet
was about to convey to Constantinople the first con-
voy of those valiant soldiers who were leaving France
to defend right and justice against the pretensions of
Russia. We are hourly expecting several English
steamers and a great number of French vessels, for
the conveyance to the East of the new divisions, now
concentrating at Toulon, a portion of which are already
quartered in the neighbouring villages. Yesterday, a
battalion of the 10th Regiment of Light Infantry
marched through the town to La 'Palette,' where it is to
remain until it receives orders to embark. Two companies
of engineers and a mounted battery of artillery, with all
its materiel, arrived yesterday morning, and were billeted
on the inhabitants. Measures are taken for the speedy
embarkation of all the troops, and we have now is
the reads a sufficient number of vessels to carry in
,one voyage 10,000 men to the seat of war. A de-
tachment of the 14th Battery of the 4th Regiment
of Artillery, in garrison at Toulon, will proceed to-
morrow to Cuges, to receive a considerable materiel of
Artillery, which is on its way to Toulon, to be embarked
before the close of the month. Two detachments of the
10th and 25th Regiment s of Light Infantry, forming an
effective force of 560 men, are to be cantoned partly at
011ioules and partly at Toulon, to be ready at a moment's
notice to take passage on board one of the ships of war,
for Algeria. The operatives in the maritime arsenal
worked yesterday (Sunday) until neon, and during the
week many are kept employed until seven o'clock p
The greatest activity prevails in our arsenals. The
2d battalion of the 57th, 550 men strong, arrived.
to-day at Toulon, and is to be cantoned in the vicinity.
With the Ist battalion of that regiment, expected to-
morrow, and the 10th Light infantry' now here, sce
shall have a complete brigade, which can be embarked
in 24 hours. The Milan steamer, which only arrived a
few days ago from Brest, has already left for the East.
The frigate Vengeance weighed anchor this afternoo%
for the same destination. Both had troops on boar,cl.4
We have now in port, ready to sail with reinforcemenb*
the ship of the line St. Louis, which arrived yesterday'
and four frigates, the Calypso, Zenobie, Constitutios;

FRANCE.

PARIS, FRIDAY EviizaNa.
The Emperor yesterday received a letter from
the Duke of Nassau, notifying to his Majesty the
birth of a prince, his son.
The Moniteur publishes the following report
made to the Emperor from the Minister of War,
dated the 22d :

" Sire,—Since the landing of our troops in the Crimea
numerous vacancies have taken place in the body of offi-
cers of the army of the East, for which it has net
been possible to provide except in a very incomplete
manner. In consequence of the distance we are from
the theatre of war, and the difficulties and uncertainty
which result from our means of communication being
exclusively maritime, the Minister of War cannot, in
fact, be informed of the vacancies, and receive prepo-
sitions for filling them up until after a long delay, which
is still further increased by the time necessarily required
fir the nominations to be made, and for the officers ap-
pointed to reach their destination. Vacancies so long un-
filled, which even at home, and in a time of peace, would be
attended with inconveniences for the service, present, par-
ticularly as regards the inferior grades, real dangers when
an army is in presence of the enemy. The law has pro-
vided for this circumstance, and has afforded the means
of remedying the inconvenience under extraordinary
circumstances by leaving to the Sovereign the power of
delegating to the Commander-in-Chief of an army in the
field the power of making previsional appointments to
vacancies which may occur. I have, in consequence, the
honour to submit to your Majesty a draft of a decree
which will confer on General Canrobert the right of ap-
pointing provisionally to vacancies occurring in the
army of the East up to the rank of chef de battaillen or
chef d'escadron inclusively.
VIILLANT."
This report is followed by a decree of the Emperor,
carrying out the recommendations of the Minis-
ter, but stating that the nominations so made
will not be definitive until they have been sub-
mitted to the imperial sanction. Officers, however,
so appointed will take rank from the day of their
provisional nomination.

SPAIN .

The Madrid journals of the 19th, due yesterday,
have arrived, as has also the Gazette of the 20th,
the only one which appeared on that day, which
was Monday. On the 19th, the Queen held a
grand reception for kissing hands, on the occasion
of her fete-day ; it was attended by more than 500
officers of the national guard. Her Majesty in the
evening gave a grand banquet. The Queen wished
to cause the Duke de la Victoria (Espartero) to sit
at her right hand ; but the Minister of Foreign
Affairs remarked that, according to diplomatic
usage, the place belonged to the ambassador of
Frnice ; mid, accordingly, General Espartero re-
signed it to M. Turgot with the greatest courtesy.

LIVERPOOL—Nov. 24.

The Corn Exchange this morning was slenderly attended

lish, of both articles, could not be moved except at a re-
duction. Oatmeal easier to buy. Indian corn declined is
to 2s per qr. No change observable in any other article.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER.
We have nothing of importance to record since Tues-
day. The rooms being nearly deserted on Wednesday
and Thursday by the subscribers to attend the Hoylake
Meeting, and was but thinly attended to-day. 50 to 1
was currently offered against anything for the Chester
Cup, and there were offers to take 20 to 1 about Dam-
son's Lot ; 40 to 1 was taken to win a few hundreds
about Frederick for the Derby, the same, figure being
wanted about Polydere' against whom 1,000 to 30 was
the highest offer. Any advance upon 20 to 1 would have
been taken about Cruiser, but so little was dote that we
deem a list of quotations unnecessary.

WANT OF SCREW STORE-SHIPS.

The Government are still in want of about a dozen of
screw steamers of from 500 to 700 tons, to convey the
wooden huts and other winter necessaries to the army
in the Crimea. The cheapest way'would be to build a
a dozen of such vessels as the Sepply and Industry, and
man them and pay them as mercantile transports are.
In the course of three months half a dozen such screw
steamers could be easily procured, and there can be no
doubt they will be wanted next summer.

Robertlovfe, chartered screw iron steamer, with am-
munition for the Crimea, arrived at Spithead yesterday
morning. _ _ _

The Esk, chartered iron steamer, has received an im-
mense supply of clothing and stores from the Clarence-
yard, and sailed yesterday morning for the Crimea.
No. 109, sailing transport, arrived at Spithead yester-
iiay at noon.
