FURTHER NEWS FROM VARNA.

The news from Varna, by the Hamburgh
Reporter, is down to the 18th September. The
arrival of the. EMPEROR seems to have infused
a fresh impulse into, the besieging army, for their
efforts are not only unceasing, .but decidedly suc-
cessful. After, having driven the Turks from

the points occupied by them on the 13th, the
counterscarp, situated in the front of the northern
bastion, nearest the sea, was blown into the air
at sun-rise, on the 14th, and the fire of the
batteries effectually silenced on that side. This
counterscarp was thrown by the effects of a mine

into the fosse, which became so completely filled
in consequence, that the Russians were able to
take possession of the entrance to a breach in the
bastion which had materially suffered frOm the
fire of the besiegers.
In consequence of this advantage, and the road
to Bourgas being occupied by the corps of Ge-
neral GcLowiN, the Emperor deemed it proper
to summon the garrison to surrender, as there
could be no longer any hope of their receiving
reinforcements. A flag of truce was accordingly
'sent into Varna, and a temporary cessation of
hostilities ensued. But Admiral GREIG per-
ceiving, from the manner of the Casitan Pacha,
who had repaired on board of the Admiral's
ship, that the enemy was only desirous ofgaining
time by evasive answers, the negociations were
broken off, and the cannonade recommenced on
the 15th.

From this account it appears pretty evident thai
Varna must soon either surrender by capitula.
tion or be captured by storm. In the latter al.
ternative the carnage must be immense.

The news from Shumla comes down to the
14th. The Russians maintained their position
notwithstanding the difficulty experienced in
procuring forage. To be able to maintain a
position while besieging a fortress is but a poor
boast, and evidently leads to the conclusion that
the besiegers were in a worse predicament than
the besieged. Other accounts say that the Rus-
sians are preparing to fall back on their resources.

By the Hantburgh Reporter of Friday last,
the 3d inst. it appears that the price of wheat
had again considerably risen at Hamburgh, chiefly
in consequence of large foreign purchases, but
the inhabitants of the place did not suppose that
the rise would continue, anti therefore refrained
from buying :

Boasim HALLE, OCT. 3, Fours o'CLocx.—Wheat has
again risen considerably, in consequence of purchases
ovule for foreign account, which, as they exceeded the
extent of our arrivals, have reduced our stock in hand.
Our,own consumers have bought little, not believing, ap-
parently, that the present high prices will maintain them-
oelves.

Of Rye there has been but little brought into the mar-
ket: a few parcels that were upon hand have been dis-
posed of at the prices quoted. At a sale of Danish Rye
yesterday, only a
part was sold, the rest being bought in
by the owners.

Of Barley there was but little brought into the market ;
that little was, however, readily disposed of.
Oats are also firm. All that has been brought into the
market has found buyers ; but of these many are specula-
tors, who have purchased in hopes of a further advance.
Peas in demand, and but little to be had.

Rapeseed, if of good quality, a ready sale.
From the 10th to the 20th ult. inclusive, 67 cargoes of
corn passed the Sound. Of these, 44 were wheat, 8 rye,
2 barley, 2 oats, and 1 tares. Forty-six were bound to

Notwithstanding the low quotations received from Am-
sterdam, the funds have been rather firm to-day. A great
deal has been done in Russian securities, and at the close
of the day the market was upon the whole rather• Bullish,
Particularly as far as time bargains were concerned. Dis-
count 21 to 3 per cent. From Berlin prices come rather
better than last post.

We stated some time ago that the Russians
were resolved upon making further efforts to re-
cruit their army, in order to carry orl the war
against Turkey with additional Vigour;—and we
now learn from St. Petersburgh that a third levy
is to be made of four out of every 500 men
throughout Russia. This is a forcible com-
mentary upon the Emperor's professions of mo-
deration. Reckoning the number of men in
Russia capable of bearing arms at 15 millions,
the proportion of four out of every 500 would
produce a levy of 120,000 men !

Our City Correspondent says, " We under-

whose care the young Queen of PORTUGAL re-
mains, has absolutely refused to allow the young
QUEEN to go to Vienna, contrary to the recom-

He says, he thinks, the QUEEN is safer in this
country than at Vienna."
