" In that very same village, at the moment Woronzoff was
making his soldiers sing a Te Deum in honour of the Empress's
fête, he was simultaneously attacked on all sides by the moun-
taineers, who were believed to be dispersed afar. The object of
their offensive return was to occupy his attention, whilst his
convoy of supplies was at the same time attacked. The army,
which was in want of provisions, expected them from the line
of the Terek, and the general had sent a division to protect
the arrival of the convoy, which was, besides, escorted by a
strong column. All those troops, and the convoy they
were bringing, were assailed with furious intrepidity
by Scbamil's warriors. The Russians had to stand several
hours of a desperate struggle, which cost them great loss,
It was there that two generals were killed. The Caucasians
took possession of pine hundred mules carrying provisions, and
would perhaps have captured the whole convoy, had not cart-
ridges been wanting. They then rushed on the Russians,
daggers in hand, breaking through their ranks to fight corps-a-
corps. They attacked with preference the officers, although
Count Woronzoff had ordered the insignia of rank to be re-
moved or concealed in order to deceive the enemy, whose
fanatic courage aims at the chiefs. At length, Count Woron_
zoff having received the wrecks of the convoy, but unable to
attempt anything more with the troops, decimated, harassed,
and in want of previsions, was compelled to interrupt his opera-
tions, after a campaign of twenty days, without any other
result than the destruction of the Dargo huts, which Schamil
himself had set fire to before the arrival of the Russians.
" It is believed that the General-in-Chief might have been
exposed to a great disaster, had not General Freitag hastened
to his assistance, when he was blockaded by the mountaineers,
without food for his troops. It has already been seen that the
mountaineers had raised fresh intrenchments in order to cut off
his retreat, and that the army was freed from anxiety only
after its junction with the succouring corps. It was then
enabled to go and supply itself on the line of advanced forts.
Prince Alexander, of Hesse, who served in the army of the
Caucasus, has relinquished the operations. He has embarked
on the Black Sea by the Kouban line, in order to return to
St. Petersburgh. General Woronzoff has dispersed his troops
in the garrisons and cantonments of his line of operations. In
short, the campaign is deemed almost fruitless as regards the pro-
gress of Russian domination in the interior of the country."

HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO THE

CONTINENT.
COBURG, AUG. 25.—Matters are so completely quiet
here and at Rosenau, that it would be quite unnecessary
to send this communication, except that the people of
England may like to know that the Queen and her Con-
sort are well, and in the enjoyment of that repose which
they so much required after the fatigues of travelling.
Temporary seclusion from the cares of State, and the
wearying splendours of Court life, at all times :so wel-
come to Sovereigns, must become doubly agreeable
when obtained in so delightful a place as that in which
the Queen and Prince Albert now are. Their daily
habits are the most simple. Up with the early morning,
after a walk in the beautiful grounds around Rosenau,
they breakfast in the open air, on a terrace at the back of
the castle, which commands one of the loveliest views
imaginable ; promenades, or drives to view points of the
neighbouring scenery, occupying the rest of the day till
the dinner hour, which i 3 four o'clock, and the remain-
der of the evening is either spent at the theatre (when
open), or at the town residence, when the royal party
do not remain in privacy at Rosenau. So simple and
uniform a life obviously affords no opportunity for a
newspaper chronicle.

Yesterday the dinner was postponed to seven o'clock.
After church the royal party drove out. To-day there
has been no variation from the usual routine.
The arrangement still is for the Court to leave here
on Wednesday morning. A journey of about nine hours
will bring them to a seat of the Duke's, between this and
Gotha, where they will rest till Thursday morning; they
will then go on to Gotha. On their way, on Wednes-
day, they will lunch at Meiningen. To-night the royal
party are expected again to attend the theatre. A Ger-
man comedy, by Gutzkow, will be performed, entitled
Zopf and Schwert. It turns upon some of the eccentri-
cities of the Court of Frederick William 1., father of
Frederick the Great.

COURT CIRCULAR.
Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, Prince
Alfred, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice were
taken on the sea-beach on Wednesday morning, and
were taken airings in the pleasure grounds of Osborne
House, the same afternoon.
On Thursday morning the juvenile Royal Family all
walked on the beach. In the afternoon the Prince of
Wales, Prince Alfred, and the Princess Royal rode on
ponies in the pleasure grounds. The Princess Alice
was also taken an airing.

THE EAST SUFFOLK HOSPITAL.—A vast number
of the gentry and of all classes were assembled on Thursday
last, in the Park of the Chantry, near Ipswich, for the bene-
volent purpose of contributing to the funds of this Institution,
through the medium of a public bazaar. The owner of the
park, Mr. C. Lillingston, very kindly allowed his grounds for
the use of the Committee and all who chose to attend, and the
services of Mr. B. Edgington, of the borough, were in requi-
sition to erect eight elegant marquees for the accommodation
of the company. Colonel Whyte and the officers of the 7th
Hussars permitted the band of the regiment to attend, and
altogether the arrangements were most satisfactory. The
funds of the Institution have received a considerable addition
from this judicious mode of uniting amusement with the busi-
ness of benevolence. On Friday evening a ball for the same
purpose was held in the New Assembly-rooms, at Ipswich, at
which all the rank and fashion of the neighbourhood were
present.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY AT NOTTINGHAM.—Thurs-
day the metropolitan police received information of a man
named Henry Hayes having absconded from Nottingham, on
Saturday afternoon last, after having plundered his. sister, Mrs.
Mary Anne Morris, of property to a large amount. Hayes
took with him a black leather trunk, containing a large quan-
tity of plate, a receipt on Moore and Robinson's bank for
1701., Bank of England and Liverpool notes to the amount of
1551., a yellow silk bag, containing upwards of 100 sovereigns,
two gold bracelets set with cameos, with other valuable pro-
perty.
THE BLIGHT OF THE P,,TATo CROP.—The unfa-
vourable accounts which we last week gave relative to the
matter are, we regret to stet.; confirmed. How far the warm
weather and drying winds of the past week may have tended to
stay the evil, it is difficult to say. To repair the damage that
has been already done, is clearly beyond the range of possibi-
lity.—Sussex Advertiser.

at Berlin, on their way to Italy, the physkians having
recommended that the EINIPRE6S should pass the wint,.l.

Madrid papers to the 22d have been received. The
capital continues tranquil.

The Gaceta publishes the names of the sixty-five
new Senators. The appointments seem to have been
fairly made, and include persons of all parties.
The most remarkable names are the Duc de RIAN.
ZARIES, the Due de SOTOMAYOR, the President of the
Council ; the Marquis de VILUMA, Baron de MEER, M.
ISTURITZ, and the virtuous VALDEZ, who so distin-
guished himself, while Governor of Cuba, by his opposi-
tion to slavery. In the list there are 4 archbishops, 10
bishops, 19 generals, 11 ex-ministers, and 5 judges.
There were rumours of disturbances having taken
place at Valencia, Toledo, and Saragossa, but they were
not thought entitled to credit.

No business was done in the Three per Cents. The
Five per Cents. closed at 221 at 60 days.

We have received the Paris papers of Friday. General
LAMORICIERE has been appointed, by royal ordonnance,
Governor of Algeria during the absence of Marshal
BUGEAUD. On his appointment the Siecle observes as
follows :
" It is already known that Marshal Bugeaud, who i 3 on the
point of returning to France, on a leave of absence which some
persons affirm to be unlimited, had designated Lieut.-General
de Lamoriciere to fill the post of Governor-General during his
absence. M. de Lamoriciere refuses to perform these functions
upon the delegation of Marshal Bugeaud, and demanded that
the interim should be confided to him by the French Govern-
ment. We now learn that the King has just signed an ordon-
nance in the sense desired by M. de Lamoriciere. This deci-
sion is of the greater importance, as MM. Bugeaud and La-
moriciere are not in accord as to the mode of colonisation of
our African possessions. M. Bugeaud desires colonisation by
the army. M. de Lamoriciere, on the contrary, is favourable
to extensive grants and civil colonisation."
M. THIERS has left Paris for Spain. He proposes to
be absent about a month.
Intelligence has reached France, by way of Odessa,
from the seat of war in the Caucasus. Count WORON-
ZOFF'S victories over SCHAMIL have not been so brilliant
as he would fain have us believe. True, he has taken
Dargo, &HAMM'S residence, but Dargo has been his
Moscow. He suffered immense loss in the attack on
Dargo, and before abandoning the place SCIIAMIL set it
on fire, so that the Russian army was without provisions
and without shelter in the midst of this ruined village.
The conclusion we give in the words of the correspondent
of the Journal des Debats
