LATEST NEWS.

We have received the following telegraphic
despatch froroi our correspondent in Vienna :

"VIENNA, SATURDAY MORNING.

"Between. the 9th and 13th Mayran's division
and 2,340 more French troops left Constantino-
ple for the Crimea. 10,000 Turks and 6,500
Egyptians have also taken their departure.

" Osten-Sacken is to take the command in the

Crimea, instead of Danitenberg.

" Omer Pasha is reported to have received
orders not to advance into Moldavia."

We have ads• received the following despatch,
dated last night, from our correspondent in

Vienna: --

" The °est. Correspondenz of this afternoon
states that at 2 o'clock Count Buol and Count

Arnim, by order of their respective Courts, signed
au additional article to the treaty of April 20.

"As a consequence of the complete understand-

in thus established between the two great Ger-
man Powers, it is certain that the motion about
to bo made in the Diet will be carried by a ma.

jority almost amouiting to unanimity. Thus the
influence of the whole of Germany will be se-

cured on the great European question now pond

ing.
" Official Russian news states that during the

stormy night of the 14th, 12 transports were lost
on. the shore in the embouchure of the Katcha.
" Some of the men fell into the hands of the

Russians, but none of the vessels.

" Two steamers and a screw-ship, which had

run aground, were got off by lightening the yes.

sels."
We have since received the following from our

correspondent at Vienna :
" VIENNA, SUNDAY EVENING, 6 O'CLOCK.

" It is now positively affirmed that Austria has
accepted, with some slight modifications, the pro-
positions contained in the Prussian Note of the
15th.

" A day or two since Bavaria announced her
accession to the policy of Austria on the Oriental

question, and promised her support in the Ger-

man Diet.

"If this be correct, the policy of Austria can
hardly be that of the Western Powers.
"Russia has prohibited the exportation of all

binds of corn into Austria.

" Prince Napoleon was to return to Balaklava
on the 17th of November."

The following, dated last night, is from our
correspondent in Paris :
" The Egyptus, which left Constantinople on

the 15th, has arrived to-day at Marseilles. She
does not bring any news from the Crimea, the

storm of the 13th having prevented the departure

of the courier from the army. The Journal de

Constantinople mentions the embarkation for the
Crimea of 10,000 Turks, and the expected speedy
departure of 40,000 more. Mahmouci. Pasha,
formerly Minister of Marine, has been exiled.

"The armies in Asia were about to take up

their winter quarters.

" Thirteen large English steamers arrived yes

terday at Marseilles."

THE PRINCIPALITIES.
A letter of the 14th, from Jassy, confirms the
report that the Turks under Sadik Pacha are cross-
ing the Sereth, but it does not appear probable
that an invasion of Bessarabia will be ventured
upon. The movement of the Turks looks more
like a demonstration for the purpose of drawing
Prince Gortschakoff's attention from the Crimea.
The pontoon bridge at Rutsohuk has been removed
from thence to Silistria ; and two bridges have
been thrown over the Seroth near its conflux with
the Danube. The Russians in Bessarabia are
making great preparations for defence • and the
line of the Pruth is strongly fortified at all points.
Whole villages have been destroyed for this pur-
pose. The Prose says that on the 14th Prince
Gortschakoff was still at Kischineff, as also the
Grand Dukes Michael and Nicholas, who were
about to leave for Warsaw. The troops, which in
October were being conveyed in waggons to the
Russo-Moldavian frontier, had been ordered to the
Gallician frontier.
According to a private letter of the 15th, from
Bucharest, Omer Pacha received his instructions
to advance towards the Russian frontier on the 6th.
The garrison of the Wallachian capital was also to
march to the north, and the Commander-in-Chief in-
tended to follow on the 16th. The rain was incessant,
and the weather so tempestuous that the operations
of the Sirdar were much retarded. His Highnesshas
applied to the British Government for experienced
English officers. It appears that the recent mis-
conduct of the Turks at Balaklava has much mor-
tified Omar Pasha, who well knows what his army
can do when they are well officered, as was the case
at Silistria and Giurgevo. General Cannon, who
left with his little staff for Braila on the 13th, is
said to be in very high favour with the urkish
commander. The victory obtained by he Allies
on the sth was proclaimed at Bucharest on the
11th.

FRANCE.
PARIS, SUNDAY EVENING.
The following telegraphic despatch, which has
arrived here to-day, adds but little to our previous
information from the Crimea beyond the fact that
up to the 15th nothing was known at Constanti-
nople of any further attack on the part of the Rus-
sians. The despatch does not affirm up to what
date intelligence from Balaklava had been received
in the Turkish capital ; but it is to be supposed.
that the last news was only to the 12th, as a dread-
fud tempest raged in the Black Sea on the 13th and
14th. Hence the vessel which has just arrived
brings no letters from the Crimea :-
- Marseilles, 1.; ov.
"The Egyptus arrived here last night, bringing
news from Constantinople to the 15th, but with-
out letters from the Crimea, a violent storm which

prevailed in the Black Sea on the 13th having pre-
vented the arrival of the mail from the Crimea.

" According to the intelligence received previ-
ously, the Russians continue fortifying the houses
in the interior of Sebastopol ; but they are likewise
preparing the means of retreating into the fortifica-
tions of the north, by establishing two bridges of
boats.

" A part of the troops beaten at Inkerman had
arrived from Odessa in nine days in carts.
" The Journal de Constantinople states that in
addition to the speedy sending of 40,000 men (Eng-
lish and French), 10,000 Turks are to embark for
the Crimea.
" Twenty-two transports have passed the Dar-
danelles.. On the 9th the Golden Fleece took a
regiment of artillery on board at Malta.
" The army of Asia is doing nothing. It had
100 deaths a day during the month of October, but
their situation was improving. It was preparing
for winter quarters.
" The Russian prisoners state that the two Grand
Dukes, during their stay in the Crimea, recom-
mended the Poles to have full confidence in the in-
tentions of the Czar.
" The Candia, from Liverpool, and two other
large steamers, arrived last evening at Marseilles."
The following private telegraphic despatch has
also been received here :

" TRIESTE, 24T11.—Advices from Alexandria to the
state that the Viceroy of Egypt had started with
12,000 troops for the desert, in order to exercise them
in strategic movements and accustom them to marching.
The same courier brings news front Bombay to the
28th ultimo. The embassy sent by the English to
the Burmese Monarch had arrived at Rangoon.
The King. was disposed to negotiate with Eng-
' land, but claimed restitution of certain parts of his ter-
ritory conquered by the British troops. The last news
from Hong Kong conies down to Oct. 11. At Canton
it was expected that the city would soon be stormed.
The French, English, and American commissioners had
reached Shanghai, and were going on to .Pekin,"

The Moniteur of yesterday Bays that the Em-
peror has just addressed the following letter to the
General-in-Chief of tho army of the East :

" Palace of St. Cloud, Nov. 24.
"General,--Your report respecting the victory of In-
kerman
has excited deep emotion in my mind. Express,
in my name, to the army my entire satisfaction with the
courage it has displayed, with its energy in supporting
fatigues and privations, and its warm cordiality towards
our allies. Thank the generals, the officers, and the sol-
diers for their valiant conduct. Tell them that I warmly
sympathise with their misfortunes and the cruel losses they
have experienced, and that my constant solicitude shall
be directed to the task of softening the bitterness of them.
After the brilliant victory of the Alma, I had hoped for a
moment that the routed army of the enemy would not so
easily have repaired its losses, and that Sebastopol would
soon have fallen under our attacks; but the obstinate de-
fence of that town and the reinforcements received by the
Russian army leave for the moment arrested the course of
our success. I approve of the resistance you made to the
impatience of the troops who wished to make the assault
under circumstances which would have entailed too cot-
siderablo losses.

"The English and French Governments direct their
serious attention to their army in the East. Already
steam-boats are traversing the seas with considerable rein-
forcements. This increase of assistance will double your
forces, and enable you to assume the offensive. A power-
ful diversion is about to take place in Bessarabia, and I
receive the assurance that from day to day in foreign coun-
tries public opinion becomes more and more favourable to
us. If Europe should have seen without alarm our eagles,
so long banished, displayed with so much eclat, it is be-
cause it knows that we are only fighting for its indepen-
dence. If France has resumed the position to which she
is entitled, and if victory has again attended upon our
flags, it is—l declare it with pride—to the patriotism and
to the indomitable bravery of the army that I owe it.
" I send General de Montebello, one of my aides-de-
camp, to convey to the army the rewards which it has so
well merited.

"In the meantime, General, I pray God to have you in
His holy keeping.

"NAPOLEON

A letter from Marseilles, of the 23d inst., says :
" The greatest activity prevails in the port of La Jo-
liette at this moment. A dozen transports are taking on
board a squadron of the waggon train, and a number of
mules. 100 Chasseurs d'Afrique are to embark in the
same transports. The steamer Galiano is to sail to-night
for Constantinople, having been chartered by Govern-
ment for the conveyance of a strong detachment of
mounted gendarmes and ammunition for the army of the
East. All the steamers freighted for the same service
have already commenced loading stores. M. Baudens,
head surgeon of the military hospital in Paris, arrived
yesterday at Marseilles."
General Count de Montebello, who is the bearer
of the Emperor's proofs of approbation to the army,
was to have left yesterday, and in some of to-day's
papers his departure is announced. He was, how-
ever, in Paris at one o'clock to-day, but leaves this
ev ning.

On Tuesday last the Emperor and Empress were
present at an experiment of the machine for trans-
planting trees, invented by Mr. Stewart Mac-
Glashin, of Edinburgh. The trial was attended
with complete success, and his Majesty, after pur-
chaaing the apparatus, requested the inventor to
proceed to St. Cloud, on Thursday morning, to
teach the gardeners of the Palace the manner of
working it.

The Moniteur says :—" We lately published,
under all reserve, a manifesto attributed to
Count de Montewolino. According to a letter
addressed from Naples to the Parlaetento of
Turin by M. Thomas d'Agiout, and copied by
the Messager de Bayonne, this manifesto is said to
be apocryphal. Having inserted the former docu-
ment, we think it our duty to admit the explana-
tion of which it is the object."
There is no truth in the announcement in the
Constitutionnel of this morning, that Colonel Tripier,
the head of the French engineering staff in the

is the principal officer of engineers immediately
under General Bizet, and his death would have
been a great calamity. Happily his friends have re-
ceived letters from him subsequently to Nov. 5.
M. Creuzet, the Government candidate, has been

The,English steamer Petrel is laow in the dock
at Havre, taking on board a quantity of stores for
the army of the East left behind by the Alps
steamer, which sailed a few days since for the same
destination. The Petrel will be followed by four
other steamers with provisions of all kinds for the
army.

A telegraphic despatch, the purport of which is
not clearly understood, has been received from the
Admiralty. It was to this effect :—" If the Prin-
cess Royal is to proceed to England, Rear-Admiral
Seymour is to hoist his flag on board that ship."
To this, I have heard, from a source on which re-
liance may be placed, the Commander-in-Chief
replied as follows :—" No orders have reached me
for any one of the ships under my command to
leave Kiel harbour for England."

A statement appears in -the Independance Beige,
dated Hamburg, the 17th inst., announcing that
the departure of the fleet is further postponed until
the 4th of December, when it will be determined
on what ships are to proceed home, and that in-
structions will be forwarded to the Commander-in-
Chief to leave a certain portion of the fleet in this
harbour for the winter season. But I believe this
statement to be entitled to very little credence.
Yesterday the on dit at the " Club" was, that a
portion of the Russian fleet had left Helsingfors
and captured two of our cruizers in the Gulf of
Finland so recently as three days since. Such an
event is highly improbable, and you must receive
the intelligence with great reserve. It reached
this port by electric telegraph, and is universally
considered without foundation.
By the latest advices the ice from Sweaborg and
Cronstadt has net yet formed to any very great
extent, and the navigation of the Gulf of Finland
is still open.
Here it has been freezing hard for the past two
days, with a piercing wind from E.S.E., and a
slight fall of snow. The thermometer (Fahrenheit)
yesterday, at 7 a.m., indicated a temperature of
27 degs. in the open air. Its maximum during
the day was 30 degs., its minimum 26 dogs. The
barometer fell rapidly, till it reached 29.052 inches,
where it remained stationary.

During the past few days the rear squadron has
been visited by Rear-Admiral Chads, who mustered
the crews of the various ships of which it is com-
posed.
The Vulture, piddle-steamer, Captain F. H.
Glasse, sails to-day with despatches and munitions
of war for the squadron under the orders of Cap-
tain R. Watson, blockading the enemy's ports in
the Gulf of Finland.
The Magicienno, paddle steam-frigate, Captain
Thos. Fisher, has proceeded to the head of the
harbour to replenish her fuel, on completing which
she is to be despatched on particular service.

office appear to be imperfectly performed. Letters
