RUSSIA AND CIRCASSIA.

The conflict in the Caucasus is still going on with
undlminished inveeracy. A correspondent of one
of the London papers writes from st. Petersburgh
on the 18th " Since the brilliant feat of arms oil
Col. Sepzow, near China Jurt, new attempt has
been made in the Daghasten to reake the village
of the Gergebel, occupied by the mountaineers.
On June Is the commander-n-chef gave orders
for the attack, but the besieged made so obstinate
resistance that the Russians obliged TO re-
tire, and, after three Intellectual assaults, were
obliged to return unsuccessful to their camp with
% officers and 81 men wounded and having | 10
men killed."
The AagSbug Ga2ate gives an account of Sc
veral sangunary affairs which have taken place in
the Caucasus between the Russians and Circassians
on the authority OF the following letter from Con-
stantnople:
con the 10th Of May the Circassians Notwithstanding the
approach Of the Russian army carried by the Russian
fortress Of krkach, situated in the Kauban, which they
RACED to the ground On the Goth Of May they attacked the
fortress Of Zerebre The garrison defended itself vaanty,
and during the assault young Russian officer set fire TO
powder magazine the explosion Of which destroyed four hun
dred men, for the most part Ccassans but such was the
ardo Of the ASSISTANTS that Notwithstanding this catastrophe
the place fell into their hands, after desperate struggle Of
twelve hours Duration Aerward on the 9Th Of June there

BY Gen. Lepsk and the mounanecrs under the orders Of

they pay for much three hundred Turkish pastres

TURKEY.


According TO London accounts from Constantine
pie of the 18th july the news from Kurofstan is
that Bedsr Han Bey, after making several attacks
on the Turkish force under Osman Pacha, in all of
which he was beaten, has been deserted by nearly
all his soldiers, and by all his allies. Mahmoud
Khan has retired to! his own impregnable castle on
the south Of the Lake of Van. Nouvitah Bey has
Seeing the bad turn events are taking for his
father-in-law) submitted to the Porte and Beder
Han has not actually more than band of 500 men
with him. II is probable we shall next hear either
of his surrender to the Serasker, or OF his lghtno
Persia.
1t appears that the battles which have been fought
with the Kurd chief have been very severe. At
Darguelheb, near Dejezira, he made night attack
on the Turkish force, which was commanded by
Omar Pacha, the Austrian renegade, who two years
ago put down rebellion in Albania. The combat
which took place is said to have been most obsti-
nate. The Seraskier acknowledges the loss of 500
killed and 1000 wounded, and the loss of the
kurds is asserted to have been much greater.
Nearly at the same time, too, CONN Pacha attack
ed Khan Mahmoud, and, after very desperate
struggle, routed his force, which consisted of about
5000 men, of which 1000, it is reported, fell, the
action having been one in which the combatants
fought at close quarters hand to hand. There have
been no such fights as these in Turkey since the
battle of Nazib.

getc prompt, and wide awake, but civil, obliging,
and accommodating to a most praseworthy degree.
1t was truly delightful TO read the observations
which were made in the House of Commons on
the subject of American liberality and kindness
during our late distressing scarcity of food. Mr..
BRoTHERToN, the member iorSallord, introduced the
subject in the most handsome and feeling manner,
and was eoquently seconded by Mr.. BRowN, the
member for South Lancashire; Lords PALMERsToN
and MoRPETH passing the highest encomiums upon
the spirit Of philanthropy and good feeling which
had influenced the citizens of the United States ;
and deducing from thence the brightest hopes
Of peace, concord, and mutual respect and esteem
between the two countries. Mr.. BANcRoFTs con-
duct, as the representative of the United States in
his attendance at public scientific and other meet
ings, and the various addresses which he has made
there, particularly that at the agricultural meeting
at Northampton, have won for him "golden opin-
ions'' from all parties, and have rendered him a
most acceptable successor to Mr.. Everett.
There is very little foreign news. The Pope,
SO far from resignng, is acting more energetcally
than ever and recent events prove that he is right
in doing So He has organized national guard !;
he has placed arms in the hands of 10000 Roman
citizens, and he has thereby created power in that
city which will tend to its peace and tranquility,
and the support Of his philanthropic and patriotic
policy. Austrian intrigue has been busy, ever is
mischievously busy in Rome; but this national
guard Of Pope Plus will be an obstacle to the fur
Their fomenting Of plots and stirring up of dissatis
faction which not even the fruitful brains of Prince
Metternch can remove. The princes, the mobiles,
the bankers, and merchants of Rome hold COM
missions in this national guard, and the great
of the people, Angelo Brunette, Familiarity known
under the appellation of Cicero-vhackia is one Of
the captains. A very dangerous insurrection has
been queled, or rather it was discovered before it
was completely organized and ready for action, and
the finger of Austria was distinctly visible in the
affair. Rely upon il, the present Pope is not the
man who will resign; danger will only make him
more energetic and opposition and plot and cabal
only increase his vigilance.

Great Flood.

We alluded, in paper Of Saturday, to the great
quantity of rain which had fallen during the two
preceding days but did not then half realize the
extent of what may be truly regarded as great
lamity. This has since been made manifest in the
overflow of every stream in this vicinity, and the
inundation Of the town. The waters have never
been known to be high before. Some of the prin-
cpal streets of the town changed ho canals of
rapidly running water; and damage has been done by
the filling of cellars &c. But the most disastrous
effects have occurred in West Indianapolis. For the
width of mile, the whole is inundated, and the wa
ter surges the National road in raging
The high grade Of the road has been washed away in
some places and several houses have been lifted from
their foundations and foated across the road down
stream The East bank of the river, in the vicinity
of the graveyards, has been washed away to the ex
tent of fifty feet more, and is still wearing away
rapidly, and the water is within few feet of the
fence of the lower graveyard
The Canal is broken in several places. The
Aqueduct over Fall creek is either washed away or
very much damaged,-reports being contradictory.
The cuvert at Pogue's run is entirely gone and the
run mas made clear breach through the canal at
that place. Immense quantities of the canal banks
are washing away at other points
