By the packet ship Florida, from Liverpool. we
have received our London papers to the s0h August
and Liverpool to the lst September, inclusive.
The London papers contain various rumors Of the
defeat of the Russian army before Choumla with
immense loss 1t is said the fghing continued nine
days. The London Courier denies the receip If
any such intelligence. Letters. however, from
Odessa, of the 9Th August, announces the unexpec-
ted arrival there of theEmperor Some of the know
ing ones were disposed to attach credit to the ru-
mours OF the defeat of the army in consequence OF
the Emperor's absence from it at that peculiar time,
willie others maintained that he stood in need of re-
pose after the fatgues he had undergone, and that
he took advantage of the interval of preparations
king for the siege Of Choumla, to return into the bo
som of his family. Be this as it may, the Emper-
OF of Russia has doubt met with snch resist ance
as he had not anticipated, and was not prepared to
overcome. 1t will be seen by the accounts under
the foreign head that tine Turkish infantry amount
ed to 100000 cavalry 80, 900 more than treble what
had been estmated and besides, it is stated in let

We published a Circular from the Secretary o.
the Treasury, two days ago, and in our columns o.
to day will be found another, addressed, in August
