to the highest discipline, combined, with the most
eager courage, and armed with the best imple-
ments of modern warfare ? And then the Right
of our cause. Never in history hare England
and France fought for more unselfish objects.
Lord Rxmorries expedition against Algiers was
not more in the interests of European humanity.
It is impossible not to believe that the judgment
of IlEA.vrrt is on the side of those who sacrifice so
much, to check a reckless, and withal a hypocriti-
cal and blasphemous tyrant—a being who can
thank GOD for his butcheries, and pretend religion
as an excuse for gratifying ambition and over-
running his neighbour's peaceful territories. It
is difficult to believe that the selfish, profane, and
barbarous ambition cf NICHOLAS are not more of-
fensive to the Supreme Court of 'the Universe
than 'even to all honest earthly Courts ; and yet,
after all our confidence in our prowess, in our
cause, and consequently in the approbation of
HEAVEN, we cannot forget that the Right has not
always triumphed at first, and that the ablest pre-
parations and the bravest soldiers may fail before
unforeseen obstacles. The very tardiness of our
rulers may need its chastisement, and may bring
it. Bitter certainly will be the indignation of the
whole country should it turn out that they have
not allowed time for the only- step which could
insure the safety of Turkey. Severely will the
wasters of the nation's money and the nation's
opportunities be visited with the nation's dis-
pleasure if the present important attempt prove
unsuccessful. Under these circumstances it is
with a calm reliance on PROVIDENCE that we await
tidings which may quite possibly meet the eyes
of our readers at the same time with what we now
write. Such Unrighteous Armadas as those of
the Athenians, in ancient times, against Syracuse,
and of Spain against. England, met the defeat
they deserved, boundless as were the hopes with
which they sailed, and better-founded hopes have
often been disappointed ; taught, therefore, by
history and experience, we restrain all boasting ;
we remember that we are not omnipotent, but we
reasonably hope. much from careful preparations,
and religiously hope still more from a righteous
cause.

THE SCOTCH BROTHERS.

A tale of two Scotch brothers—more moving by far
than that of the Corsican Brothers—has reached us.
They met in London ; the one rapidly winging his way
homeward from the Continent, the other rushing in hot
haste to India. One night only had they time to inter-
change endearments—to talk over old times—to conjec-
ture the future—to " take a cup o' kindness yet for auld
lang syne." But the night of their meeting was Sun-
day, and they lodged at different hotels. Touched by
the peculiarities of their position, one of the Bonifaces
ventured nevertheless to set a bottle of wine before
them. But at the witching hour of night Policeman X
entered with the Beer Act in his hand and found them
hob-nobbing with the last glasses. The tender-hearted
publican was summoned to the police court, where the
magistrate laid down the law as follows : " The inn-
keeper had served out refreshments to two persons of a
Sunday night after ten o'clock. But one of the parties
was a ledger, and did not count ; the offender must,
however, pay for the other." If only the resident
brother had partaken of the wine—had the other been a
teetotaller and looked on—the innkeeper might have
escaped. What a pity the two brothers did not drink
after the fashion of Sir Adam Ferguson and John
Keinble. One morning Sir Adam called upon Sir
Walter Scott, and in the course of conversation in-
formed him that he had sat up till four o'clock with
John Kemble drinking wine and water. " Wine and
water I" exclaimed Scott in astonishment, who had
never suspected his friend of being addicted to such thin
potations. •' Yes," replied Sir Adam, "I drank the
wine and he drank the water." But perhaps water is a
refreshment " in the sense of the Act :" in that case the
act would run counter to Scripture, which enjoins the
charity of " a cup of cold water" without limitation of
days.— Daily Nava.

THE ROYAL ALBERT.

Royal Albert, screw, 121, is still lying on the north side
of the basin, Sheerness. Great activity prevails on board,
in consequence of the anticipated removal of this ship out
into the river, which will take place, we have every rea-
son to believe, next Friday or Saturday ; at least, that is
the general opinion of all connected with her at present.
Her tanks are being taken on board and stowed away in
the forehold, together with a quantity of ballast, which,
when completed and filled with water, no doubt will add
very materially in bringing her more on an even keel, as
she is now some four or five feet by the stern. Imme-
diately she goes out, we hear, she is to take a trial trip
round the Nore, &c., proving the advanced state her ma-
chinery has arrived at.

RUSSIA.

According to reports from St. Petersburg, via
Berlin, the following reinfOrcements have been
marched off with all possible expedition to the
Crimea :—The second brigade, seventeenth division
(second division), 6th corps and 6th Rifles, nine
battalions ; the first brigade, fourteenth division
(second division), sth corps, eight battalions, with
the 14th Artillery brigade (4th corps), consisting of
four batteries with forty field pieces nominally. It
is added that the remainder of the 6th corps, cf
which one division is in Asia, and fought near
Kars, is ordered to the Crimea, with all the dis-
posable cavalry from the colonies. The infantry
are forwarded as much as possible in waggons.

BELGIUM.
M. Forgeur, member of the Belgian Senate,
was summoned on Friday to wait on the King,
and was received by his Majesty at ono o'clock.
"If we are well informed," says the Indepew
dance of Brussels, " this interview, like that of
M. Delfosse, related to the Ministerial crisis."
The Emancipation of Brussels says :--cc It must
not be concluded from these words of the Lae-
pendance that M. Forgeur was charged to form
a new Cabinet, for the present Ministers had con-
sented some days back to remain in office. On
Saturday, they sat in council from one o'clock till
three, and came to an agreement relative to the
questions which had sprung up. All the Ministers
were present. We can confirm the news which
we gave a short time past of the approaching con-
vocation of the Chambers. The date of October
17 is maintained up to the present time."

BRISTOL.

The Revision Court for the borough of the city and
county of Bristol was opened yesterday (Tuesday) at the
Guildhall, Bristol, before Mr. C. Saunders, of the west-
ern circuit. The objections and claims were more
numerous than usual, there being 1,966 objections and
1,120 claims, viz., Liberal householders' claims, 360 ;
ditto freeholders, 40 ; ditto freemen, 16—total, 416.
Conservative householders' claims, 342 ; ditto freehol-
ders, 202 ; ditto freemen, 160—total, 704. Liberal
householders' objections, 397 ; ditto freeholders, 73 ;
ditto freemen, 265—total, 735. Conservative house-
holders' objections, 662 ; ditto freeholders, 130 ; ditto

Mr. Barker, secretary of the Liberal Association, ap-
peared for the Liberals ; and Mr. Easterling, secretary
to the Conservative Association, for the Conservatives.
There were no cases of interest throughout the day, but
the learned barrister threw considerable dismay into
the belligerent ranks by ordering costs for the parties
where there were no grounds of objection.

A JUDGMENT.—On Saturday three weeks, a young
man named Thomas Chambers, of London, attended his
mother's funeral at Saxon-street, Woodditton, in a dis-
graceful state of intoxication. Before the procession set
out for the church he asked for some gin, and upon
being told there was none threw a shilling upon the coffin
and wished some to be sent for ; but his uncle, 15!...
Thomas Chambers, very properly refused to allow it.
On the following day, while in the churchyard, he offered
with dreadful imprecations to lay half a gallon that "1

STATE OF TRADE.

( From the Manchester Guardian of this day.)

- -
MANCHESTER, Sept. 19.—Our market has b:en a good
deal affected to-day by the heavy failures that have oc-
curred within the last few days. As is usual in connec-
tion With such events, an unwonted degree of caution is
excited, and operations are largely interrupted. These
effects are not confined to the particular branches of busi-
ness directly interested, but extend in different degrees
throughout the entire market. Altogether, therefore, we
Perceive a sensible diminution of business, and an impaired
spirit. This, of course, is more especially the case in those
departments of yarns or goods which are particularly
Connected with the markets of India, China, and North
and South America. The Greeks, however, continue
a fair amount of purchases both in cloth and twist ; but
the Germans hold back very much. The home houses
are buying moderately. The value of domestics,
lonst-
cloths, T.'s, and printers is sustained. To India goods
and yarns no test is applied. The degree in which the
lower counts of twist are under contract renders them
extremely rtiff in price. In other yarns for the conti-
nent, and also for home manufacture, only a slight con-
cession from the previous quotations can be here and
there obtained by purchasers. The overland letters are
received, and they report some improvement in the Cal-
cutta market, with a more favourable prospect for fu-
ture business, and also a little amendment at BombaY-
ROCHDALB, Sept. 18 —We have bad a brisk demand
for flannels, which has quite equalled if not exceeded the
Supply ; prices are much the same as they were on the
precsding week. There is little change in the wool
market ; the demand moderate and prices firm.
HUDDERSFIELD, Sept. 19.—A slight improvement has
taken place in the demand for goods in the market to-
day. In some of the warehouses more ha, been doing
but as a general rule business has not been brisk. The
fancy vesting trade continues very depressed, and there
Seems little chance of an improvement in this season.

VIENNA, WEDNESDAY MORNING.

The Fremden Bladtt states that on the 13th all
the strand batteries recently erected at Odessa
were destroyed by part of the allied fleet.

On the 12th a powder magazine exploded at
Perekop. There is said to have been great loss of

the Allies were also damaged.

BOMBARDMENT OF ANAPA.
VIENNA, WEDNESDAY.
Since the 7th Anapa has been bombarded by the
squadron under Admiral Lyons.
The main fleet has sailed to Sebastopol, and on
its arrival the Russian fleet, which lay outside, re-
turned into port.

The Presse states that, on the 7th, a Russian
steamer landed a detachment of Cossacks at Galatz,
who destroyed the magazines of the Danubian
Steam Company, and seized the supply of coals.

Philippesco, the commander of the Moldavian
artillery, has been sent under escort to Russia.
This measure has caused general indignation.

CAPTURE OF A RUSSIAN EXPRESS
STEAMER.
The English are said to have captured a Russian
express steamer, with important despatches, off
Sebastopol.

GALATZ, SEPT. 13.

Fifty Anglo-French ships are off the coast, be-
tween Akormann and Odessa. The main fleet is
still at Serpents Island.

from Sebastopol, and to have escaped from it with
difficulty.

VIENNA, TUESDAY EVENING.
There is not a Russian soldier now either in

It is said here that a part of the expeditionary
corps of General Baraguay d'Hilliers will leave

THE VALOROUS.

The Valorous, paddle, Captain Buckle (lately arrived
from the Baltic), is still lying in the graving dock, Sheer-
ness; her repairs, however, are fast being completed, the
gripe being now on and fastened together with the dead
wood, and other damages of more trifling nature are com-
pleted. By Saturday evening next she will, no doubt,
be out of the hands of the shipwrights; her machinery is
in tolerably good order, we believe, with the exception of
the paddle-wheels, which will be completed far better in
dock ; that, together with the rigging and many minor
repairs, will be finished by next week, when the crew will
have returned from their ten days' leave of absence. It is
generally expected, when fit for sea, that this steamer will
be despatched immediately for the Mediterranean.

FATAL FIGHT AT LEEDS.— On Friday morning last
the Leeds police apprehended John Crooks, a work-
man at Whithain's foundry, in that borough, upon
the charge of killing a fellow-workman named Joseph
Fenton, in a pugilistic encounter, the previous day.
Crooks and Fenton were drinking together at a beer-
house called the Now-inn. They quarrelled, and turned
into the street to fight ; there they fought several rounds,
and then adjourned to an adjacent field ; there th 3 battle
'was renewed, and carried on for some time, until Fen-
ton became insensible and was carried hOme, where he

CONSTANTINOPLE.

Dr. Spitzer, ex-physician of the Sultan Ahd-ul-
Medjid, and formerly Councillor of Legation of
the Sublime Porte in Austria, has just been recalled
to Constantinople. M. Spitzer, who is an Austrian
by birth, has always been in great favour with the
Sultan, and also with the Sultana Valide.
Constantinople advices of the ith enable us to
lay before our readers some further account of
Schamyl's movements. Between the 26th of Au-
gust and the Ist of September the Circassian chief
entered the northern part of Georgia with
18,000 men, and advanced to the Kour. The
centre, which he commanded in person, was
at Achalgori on the 28th of August ; the right
wing, under the Emir Hassan Emin, was at
Gori, on the Kour, at the same date ; and
the left wing, under Etnir Chupli Emin, was at
Mycht, a little to the north of Teflis. The Rus-
sians were taken completely by surprise, and re-
treated, after a very feeble resistance, into the
mountains. An important result of the razzia was
that the Russians were immediately obliged to re-
linquish all idea of conquest in Turkish Armenia.
The Turkish Minister who has left Persia is said
" to have received leave of absence," but at such a
moment thia is not probable. Fezliacl Pagla

NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE,

The Dauntless, 33, screw-frigate, Captain Ryder, is
alongside the jetty at Portsmouth refitting; she is reported
as peremptorily required to be ready for sea again by Sa-
turday next.
The Curacoa, 31, screw-frigate, Captain the Hon. G. F.
Hastings, is fast progressing in her outfit at Portsmouth ;
she had her lower yards across yesterday, and her machi-
nery complete for trial.
The Swallow, 8, screw-sloop, Commander Craufurd, is
all atannt in No. 7 dock in Portsmouth yard, and is fitting
her running rigging.
The Gladiator, 6, paddle-frigate, Captain Broke, went
into Portsmouth harbour on Monday to repair a few
defects.

The Sphinx, 6, paddle-sloop, Captain A. P. E. Wilmot,
is taking in a large supply of war stores in Portsmouth
harbour for the Black Sea fleet, and will be ready to leave
about Friday or Saturday next.

The hired steam-transport Vifnedo has been laden from
the Royal Clarence-yard, Gosport, with several hundred
tons of provisions for the servico of the British army in the
East; and on Monday night she shipped from the same
establishment 300 dozen of port wine of the first quality
for the sick in the same expedition. The Clarence-yard is
worked night and day, but even this unprecedented press
of labour fails to supply the wants of the service at home
and abroad, and a large quantity of biscuits for the navy
is being baked at a private establishment at Portsmouth
for the Government. Mr. Davies, R.N., Master-Attend-
ant, and Mr. Pinhorn, storekeeper, of the Clarence Vic.
tualling Establishment, together with Captain-Superin-
tendent Courtenay, are indefatigable in their attention
and supervision to get off the daily enormous shipments
from their admirably-worked storehouses.

SINGULAR ROBBERY IN A FEVER HOSPITAL.-- On
Monday a woman, named Ellen Moore, was under ex-
amination at the Manchester citypolice-court on a charge
of robbery, under the following singular circumstances.
The prisoner was a nurse in the fever hospital of the
Manchester workhouse. On the Bth inst. a wornan
named Mary Gough was admitted into the hospital ao a
fever patient, and placed under the prisoner's care. On
being put to bed it was found that she had worn a gar-
ter of a peculiar description, composed of a piece of
coloured silk stitched up at both ends, and along one
side, so as to form a kind of bag. The poor woman
placed this garter under the pillow, and as it appeared
heavy it attracted the notice of the prisoner. The garter
contained thirteen sovereigns.' About midnight, when
the prisoner thought the patient was asleep, she stole
the garter from her pillow, but in doing so she awoke
the woman, who screamed for assistance. The prisoner
ran out, but returned immediately afterwards, and said
to the other patientsiu the ward, " Hark at that woman,
how she's raving for money ; she must be mad !" She
subsequently placed the garter under the patient's pil-
low, but the poor woman, on examining it, found that
seven sovereigns had been abstracted. The prisoner
escape] front the hospital by cliinbing over one of ill-
walls : but, on Ending the police were after site
gave herself up, and confessed the robbery. the was
remanded for a week, as the woman to how, 94 money
belonged wee unable to leave the hospital.

THE HANNIBAL.

Hannibal, screw,. Captain Grey (last from Brest, where
she discharged her Russian prisoners), is lying at the same
moorings she took abreast of the dockyard upon moving in.
We understand that a telegraphic despatch was received on
board yesterday morning, to send some of her brasses, con-
nected with the shaft immediately to Woolwich, to be re-
fitted. Same left for Chatham yesterday by steamer, and
will be forwarded to Up above place by rail. A number
of engineers are employed from the yard, on board, tope•
ther with many hands from Woolwich, making good the
defects of her machinery, and were employed all last San-
day. There is a rumour here that this ship will not now
go into dock ; but in consequence of there being something
very irregular in the guide-frames connected with lifting
the screw, which would bo impracticable to repair perma-
nently under water, we may, therefore, almost contradict
that rumour, and say that on Thursday or Friday next
she will be docked.
