THE SUN.
LONDON, FRIDAY, NOV. 23, 1860.

The News of the Day is the intelligence—coming
to us via Constantinople—of the Russian reverses
in Daghestan. It would be the very extreme of
disingenuousness, on our part, to affect, for one
single moment, to do otherwise than actually exult
over the account of this apparently signal failure
of the Muscovite expedition under BARIATINSKI—
the haughty and insolent expedition of the troops of
the CZAR against Daghestan. Our sympathies are
so directly antagonistic to the cause expressed by
that great marauding expedition, they so entirely
harmonise with the patriotic ardour animating those
un fortunate races bordering the south-eastern extre-
mities of Europe—those truly unhappy peoples who
are there, turn by turn, trampled under the iron heel
of the Russian Autocracy, that it would be absurd,
and almost criminal, to "assume" what we cer-
tainly "have not "—(not "the virtu-e," but)—the
vice of sympathy of any kind, direct or indirect, of
any good will or good wishes for the success of the
Cossack hordes under BARIATINSKI.

The tidings of these Russian disasters upon the
borders of the Caspian cannot but thrill even, in
the midst of the enervation of exile, to the heart's
core of the daring Irnaum SCIIA3IYL, the grim old
lion of the Caucasus. The electric shock of those
tidings will pass with lightning velocity, from tribe
to tribe, through all those insulated and down-
trodden nationalities lying between the two great
inland seas, the Caspian and the Euxine. From this
north western side of the Sea of Azov it will fly
from Taurida tb Astrakan. Through all that wild
country of the Caucasus it will jar like a nerve
tonnhed .13.3 r galvanism—from the barren wastes
peopled by the Don Cossacks down to the fair and
beautifu regions of Georgia. And throughout all
Enr°Pal t
least, thehr
noezhout all western Europe at the very
that Russia has met with these re-
verses will be ,
ecnoed more or less gladly, will
be welcomed •
here with occult, there
with overt OX.III
tation. Of all the different
provinces or divisions
of that great Caucasian
Daghestan, the scene of those reverses which
region,
have been recently endured by the forces of the
Russian Autocrat, are the
farthest removed from
us. They are the farthest removed
from us in
g
knowledge as well as ineographical situation.
They lie far beyond Ci reassia—b
na Georgia.
They lie far beyond Bolshaya and 'lne3:°,
aza, beyond
Abkhas and lqingril, beyond Ossi, beyond even
the easternmost borders of Tchetchen. The actual
seat of war there, the country of Dabr,hp-8 tan, in
which BARIATINSKI has met with these sharp re-
verses, total discomfiture of his
seemingly to the
expedition, extends, as we have before intimated,
along the western margin of the Caspian—from the
river Terek on the north, downwards to Tabasseran.
It is there that these "great losses" mentioned in
the telegram have been suffered by the Muscovites.
A little while longer and we shall have the parti-
culars of what has there occurred—eve shall know
the precise nature and the exact extent of the
reverses endured by BARIATINSKI. All that we
know now in regard to them is the simple fact that
there have been those reverses, and that those
reverses have in their extent and character been
really severe,

The importance of a check like this lies, however,
not so much in it self as in its influence upon the
surrounding provinces of the Russian Empire. It
is the example that Daghestan cannot but give to
