THE WAR IN ASIA.

A letter from Constantinople of the 10th in the
Gazette du Midi„says :
"The war in Asia is assuming disquieting proportions.
According to the last accounts General Mouraviefi, after
leaving a garrison in Kars, and sending his materiel to
Gumri, has advanced towards Erzeroum, and is at pre-
sent at only an hour's march from the town. A letter
from that town says :—` Communications are intercepted
by the cold, and the Turkish troops collected at Erze-
roum have only a small store of provisions. If the
Russians invest Erzeroum as they did Kars, it will
be impossible to send stores into the place by force,
the rigours of the season preventing the march of
a corps-d'armtie cf any importance. Erzeroum,
being badly fortified, would therefore be forced to
surrender in less time than was required to reduce
Kars.' Whilst the enemy is thus turning to ac-
count the advantages of his situation, we learn from
Redout-Kalil that the army of Omer Pacha is in a state
of complete detnoralisation. The populations of the ter-
ritories which it passed through in its march on Kutais
and its retreat on Batomn were constantly hostile to it.
The privations it ht s to suffer are extreme, and all the
generals who took part in the campaign of Onv,r Pacba,
seeing that the affair is becoming a had one, are slcces-
sively abandoning their post to return to Constantinople.
Their presence in this capital increases not a little the
recriminations which are made in all parts. The Mi-
nigry and the Allied Powers are accused, in order to
justify Omer Pacha ; and the Ministry accuses Omer
Pacha, in order to justify itself, and at the same time it
does not refrain from accusing the Allied Powers. The
reproach made against the latter is that they kept the
Ottoman forces in the Crimea much too long. Tnis
accusation, however, is more specious than well founded.
Oiner Pacha lost more time than was necessary in h►s
preparations for relieving Kars, and the Imperial Go-
vernment was able to send sufficient forces to Kars at
the moment they were required. Omer Pacha, on his
part, accuses the Ministry of not having sent him with
sufficient rapidity the necessary provisions and materiel.
This accusation, however, is not well founded, for Cul.
Simmons himself has declared before the Ministers of
Marine and War that the Government displayed all de-
sirable activity. As to the Western Powers, they join
the Porte in accusing Omer Pacha for not having fol-
lowed the plan decided on at Constantinople, and ac-
cording to which Trebizoad or Batoum was to be the
starting-point and the base of operations. It will be in
vain for Omer Pacha to allege that the want of sufficient
roads in the direction of B down prevented him from
going there ; this cannot justify him for having thrown
himself into Imeritia, from which there is no issue."

RUSSIA.

The Invalide Busse publishes the following ex-
traots from Prince Gortschakoff's journal'of military
operations from the 14th to the 20th of December,
(26th of December, 1855, to the Ist of January,
1856) :
cc The state of things in the Crimean peninsula
has not changed ; on the left flank of our position
the chain of outposts on either side continually
attack each other. On the 17th (29th) December,
a party of French riflemen having stealthily crept
down between the bushes as far as the hill of the
lighthouse, struck into the direction of Kourene,
and opened fire against two of our companies.
Some carbineers from the latter replied with suc-
cess to the enemy, and compelled them to retreat.
" On the 18th (30th) of Dec., the allies having
remarked that a reinforcement had been sent to
Colonel Oklobjio's outposts in the pass leading to
the valley of Baidar, beat to arms, and sent sharp-
shooters to the hill of the lighthouse ; the fusillade
which ensued on this point lasted for half an hour.
" On the 19th (31st) of Dec., a loud explosion
was heard on the south side of Sebastopol, near the
Malakhoff Tower, and two other explosions fol-
lowed in the dry docks. On our side we continued.
to throw shells against the camp pitched on the'
Fedukhine heights. The bursting of the projectiles
against the huts and tents annoyed the enemy.
" From Eupatoria, under date of the 19th (31st)
of December, it is reported that 16 squadrons of
French cavalry, with two pieces of horse artillery
and a division of infantry, had left the town and
taken the direction of the village of Saki, preceded
by an advanced guard of two squadrons. Major
Dimitrieff, of the dragoons of his Imperial High-
ness the Grand Duke Michael Nicolaievitch, who
commands this portion of our advanced posts, hav-
ing apprized the advanced guard of the advance
of the enemy in superior force, he commenced re-
treating on Saki and Tchebotar, pursued by the
French, who threatened his right flank.
" Major-General de Mitton, in command of the
advanced guard, informed .f this movement, placed
his Cossacks in the plain between Lake Saki and
Tchebotar, and sent two sotnias of the 55th Regi-
ment to the village of Tonzla, in the rear of the
enemy's squadrons, which had detached themselves
and had meantime been joined by two other squa-
drons; the enemy received by the fire of the Cossacks
placed in the ravine, threatened with being turned
by the detachment from the village of Touzfa, and
seeing two regiments of dragoons and a battery of
horse artillery appear on the Tchebotar heights,
hastily rejoined the main body, near Saki, and
half an hour afterwards returned to Eupatoria.
During the pursuit of the retreating squadrons by
the CossackF,, the French Captain Fouques, of the
Staff, was made prisoner."

SUSPENSION OF HOSTILITIES BY

RUSSIA.

We believe that authentic intelligence has been
received from St. Petersburc, that, on the 18th
inst., the Emperor despatched au order to the Rus-
sian Generals in the Crimea to suspend hostilities.
This important public step argues the sincerity
of Russia's desire for peace—a desire which we hope
may soon be gratified on complete and sufficient
conditions. At the same time, it is only right to
observe that the acceptance by
Russia of the AUF-
trian ultimatum does not justify us in yet suspend-
ing hostilities. We must, ourselves sign prelimi-
naries of peace before we can abstain from acts of
war. It is also but fair to remark that, at the pre-
sent season of the year, an order to suspend hosti-
lities, where none can go forward, amounts to a
mere formality. As such, however, it is indicative
of the anxiety which no doubt exists at St. Peters-
burg to commit us to a pacific course.
We cannot, however, forget that all that is now
peaceful in the aspect of affairs is purely owing to
our past successes and our present preparations,
and that, if we would be sure of peace, our wisest
and safest course is to continue our active exertions
until we sign with Russia the preliminaries of a
Treaty—a step which will, ipso facto, be succeeded
by a cessation of hostilities.—iforning Post.

THE BALTIC.

Letters from Copenhagen of the 14th inst. speak
of three English steam corvettes having just lately
arrived there from England, for the presumed
purpose of capturing any Russian craft that might
be tempted by the mild weather and open naviga-
tion to steal home from the ports that have af-
forded, them shelter during the recent blockade.
One of these three steam corvettes left Copenhagen
on the afternoon of the 14th inst., sailing south-
wards, that is to say, taking her course for the
Baltic. One of these corvettes seems to have been
the Driver, Captain Warren, who landed and re-
paired to the British mission.
London, England, 1856-01-23

formed, money was subscribed, and emigrants
pledged to give effect to their wishes by voting
the territory " free soil" were despatched in such
abundance as to give the Free Soilers of Nebraska
a clear majority. The day of election came, and
to the world's wonder a large body of the more
desperate slaveholders of Missouri, a neighbouring
State, invaded Nebraska, and insisted on having
their votes received at the poll. The result was
the Slavers were in a majority, and on the meet-
ing of the Legislature Nebraska was declared a
Slave St ate.

The existing Governor refused to acknowledge
a Legislature thus constituted. President PIERCE
was appealed to, and he, being at the time fishing
for southern votes, and pledged neck-deep to the
slave party, repudiated the act of his own nominee,
dismissed him from his post, and appointed a
zealous slaver in his stead. The Northern States
indignantly denounced the whole procedure, and
laughed to scorn the impudent assertion of the
friends of General PIERCE, that the Missourians
had done no more than themselves, and that he
had done his duty in adopting the acts of the
existing Legislature, however constituted. The
Free-soilers of Nebraska have taken up arms in
vindication of their rights ; the Slavers of Mis-
souri are prepared, or preparing, to meet them,
and a small military force of the Union is taking
up a position between the two parties to prevent,
if tley can, a collision—practically, to look on
merely and see fair play, or join the stronger.
This state of things involves imminent danger to
the republic, and it is to prevent the discussion of
the affair in Congress that the delay has taken
place in the appointment of a Speaker. Armed
with the consciousness of a good cause, the Free-
soil party are anxious to bring the question to au
issue which, in the present state of the public
mind, is the very last thing the Slave party would
have. In the meantime the Know Nothings, who
could decide in favour of the Free-soil candidate,
remain neuter, and division after division testifies
to the determination of the hostile parties. How
it will end we know not ; but, whether the Free-
soilers are defeated or no, slavery will, before
long, be abolished in America, or the States will
cease to be united.

Knuth de Keuthenberg, deceased, M. Brunn, one
of its members, and a judge of the Supreme Court,
to the post of member of the High Court of Justice
of the Kingdom, which is about to try the im-

that he could not accept the honour done him, and
a new election was ordered to be proceeded with
the next day. But at the next sitting, when M.
Brunn arrived, a letter signed by forty-one of his
colleagues, entreating him to accept his nomina-
tion was presented to him ; and, after some hesita-
tion, he yielded to the wishes so expressed and
withdrew his resignation.

THE POTATO DISEASE.—More than half the crop in

It is very similar in its effects to the year 1852 ; but
there was such quantities planted that the price is not
likely to range high. Turnips are a very bad crop ;
corn an d bay very excellent ones.

SOUTH WARS.

ArrExtrun Striomn.--Ann Palk, a dissipated looking
young female, was brought before Mr. Combo, charged
with attempting to drown herself in the river Thames,
also with attempting to strangle herself in the police cell
at the station-house.

Henry Madden, No. 28 of the Thames police, stated
that on the previous night he was on duty in the police
galley, near Pickle-herring•stairs, when he saw the pri-
soner run down to the water's edge and plunge in. He
immediately made to the spot and caught hold of the
prisoner's clothes. Her struggles wtre very violent ;
but after considerable difficulty he succeeded in rescuing
her from a watery grave. He then got her ashore and
conveyed her to the station-house, where medical assis-
tance was procured, and ■he was quickly restored to
animation.

Sergeant Davis, 15 Xi, the acting inspector at the
Bermondsey police•station, said that after the prisoner
had recovered and was locked up in the cell she made
a most determined attempt to strangle herself. Witness
was compelled to have two constables with her during
the remainder of the night, to prevent her accomplishing
her rash act.
Mr. Combo asked what was known of her ?

Sergeant Davie replied that she was an unfortunate
female, and had been several times in custody for drunk-
enness and other offences. There could be no doubt
that she was under the influence of liquor when she at-
tempted to drown herself.

The prisoner said she had no recollection of what had
occurred, and she assured his worship that she never
contemplated suicide when sober.

Mr. Combs remanded her for a week, to enable the
constables to make further inquiries about her. As for
Madden, his conduct was good, and no doubt he would
be rewarded by this Humane Society.

Eliza Orr, another young woman, was charged with
attempting to drown herself at London Bridge.
John Brown, 665 A, said that about three o'clock in

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

RUFFIANLY ASSAULT.—Tames Farquhar, a journey-
man tailor, was placed at the bar before Mr. Bingham,
charged with assaulting Elizabeth Steward, a dress-
maker, residing at No, 30, Carburton-street.
The prosecutrix, a good looking young woman, stated
that about one o'clock this morning she was proceeding
up Regent-street with her sister, when they met the
prisoner and two other men, all of whom appeared to be
the worse for liquor, who ran up against them and tried
to knock them off the pavement. They took no notice
of this unmanly treatment, arid walked on. The prisoner
then came up to complainant and made an infamous
proposal to her, which she indignantly rejected. He
then assailed her with the foulest abuse, struck her with
great force several blows in the face with his fists, and
then pulled her cloak from off her shoulders and tore it
to pieces. She screamed out as loud as she could for
the police, and an officer shortly after came up, into
whose custody she gave the prisoner.
Complainant's sister corroborated her evidence in
every particular.

The defendant denied the charge, and called a witness
to prove that what the complainant had stated was per•
fectiy false. _

• This witness, however, admitted that they pushed the
prosecutor about, and said be and the prisoner were both
the worse far liquor at the time.

Mr. Bingham said there was no reliance to be placed
on the evidence of a drunken witness. He considered
the charge fully proved, and fined the prisoner 405., and
recommended him to be more valiant in future, and stick
to his shears.

AUSTRIA.

Accounts from Vienna say :—" It cannot be
denied that the episcopal conferences which have
taken place during the last three months in our
capital have rather disquieted than calmed the in-
telligent part of the nation. It is believed that
several important articles of the new Concordat
which require interpretation could not be settled
before the closing of the conferences, and that con-
sequently a second meeting of high ecclesiastical
dignitaries must take place in January and Feb.
next. It appears that decidedly there does not
exist complete accord between the Austrian bishops
of our German possessions and those of Lom-
bardy as to the manner of carrying into effect
several organic articles of the Concordat, and
amongst them the censorship to be exercised
on books and publications. For certain categories
of books and printed papers the Concordat ascribes
the full power of censorship to the ecclesiastical
authorities, so that they are not obliged to consult
civil functionaries on the subject, the initiative of
the latter being confined to political writings.
However, some Italian bishops desire to extend
the sovereign right of censorship and that of visa
to all printed books which may appear iu their
diocese, whether scientific, economic, technical, or
anything else. The German and Hungarian
bishops, on their part, appear disposed thus far to
confine their power to religious works. It is be-
lieved, however, that the latter prelates, from the
desire to extend the power of the church, will in
the end adopt the opinion of their Italian brethren."
