PARIS, SUNDAY EVENING.
The following telegraphic despatch, which has
arrived hero 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 Bus.
sians. The despatch does not affirna up to what
date intelligence from Balaklava had been received
iu the Turkish capital ; but it is to be supposed
that the last news was only to the 12th, as a dread-
ful 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, Nov. 26.
"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, 24T21.—Advices from Alexandria to the
18th 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 from Bombay to the
28th ultimo. The embassy sent by the English to
the Burmese Monarch had ar.•ived at R4ngoon.
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 comes down to Oct. 11. At Cantor;
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 says that the Em-
peror has just addressed the following letter to the
General-in-Chief of the army of the East :--:

" Palace of St. Cloud, Nov. 21

"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 have 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
ender circumstances which would have entailed too cox-
siderable 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 Europa should have seen without alarm our eagles,
so long banished, displayed vith so much éclat, it is be-
cause it knows that we aro eely fighting for its indepen-
dence. If Frante has resumed the position to which she
is pntitled, and if Victory has again\ attended upon our
flags, 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
*ell meiited.

"" 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. Tho trial was attended
with complete success, and his Majesty, after pur-
chasing 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 Montemolino. According to a letter
addressed from Naples to the Parlamento of
Turin by M. Thomas d'Agiout, and copied by
the Messager de Bayonne, this manifesto is said to
be apocryphal. Havinc, 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
Comsat ationnel of this morning, that Colonel Tripior,
the head of the French engineering staff in the
Crimea, was killed at the battle of Inkerman. He
is the principal officer of engineers immediately
under General Bizot, and his death would have
been a great calamity. Happily his friends have re-
ceived letters from him subsequently to Nov. 5.
M. Creuzot, the Government candidate, has been
elected deputy to the legislative body for the de-
partment of the Cantal, in the room of M. de la
Gu6ronniere, named Councillor of State.
The English steamer Petrel is now 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.
