Arrival of the Niagara.

The steamship Niagara arrived at Hall
fax on the 25h inst. with Liverpool dates
TO the 18th inst
The news by this arrival from the Cri-
mea, the present seat of active hostilltles,
is of highly interesting character. Sc
bastopo at the last accounts was invested
bv allies on the south and east and guns
of their fleets AMI batteries were playing
upon the walls of the fortress of that ia
nous stronghold of the Gar.
Prince MenschikoT was keeping the
field at the north, expecting daily 10 be
Joined by OSlensacken and GortSchakoit,
who are at Perekep.
The statement that MenschikoG sunk
seven ships of the line across the mouth
OF the harbor Of SebastOpol is confirmed.
The energetic notes of France and
England had caused Prussia TO express a
willingness TO act with Austria.
1t was supposed that the siege artillery
Of the allies would be mounted ON the
battery around Sebastopol on the 4Ih inst,
that the bombardment would commence
on the 9Th, and that an assault was eGpec-
ted to be made on the 9Th.
The allied trenches were within six
teen hundred yards of the walls and were
already mounted with fifty guns. A pri-
vate despatch says that two breaches had
been made in quarantine on the 9th. An
other says that no bombardmenl had been
made up to the 9Th inst.
Seven Russian ships had been sunk,
with all their guns aid stores Ok board,
and the remainder of the Russian fleet
was held ready for sinking. Their crews,
10 the number Of 10000 had been added
TO the garrison.
The allied fleets were comparatively
useless, and the men from on board Of
them had Joined the land forces.
The whole country north OF Sabastopol
had been evacuated by the allies. All the
allied reserves had left Varna for the Gil
mea.
General Osten Sacken was al Perckop
since the ID, and expected 10 join Men
chkoT with his army before the 18th.
The Paris De0ats estimate the Russian
force in the Crimea at $4,000 men, and
the allies at 10000, including the sea-
men.
The two Russian Generals taken at the
battle of Alma were Gonikoii and lcha-
nof. Both of them were wounded, and
one of them has since died. They sta
ted that the Russians were $4,000 strong
at the battle of Alma, considering that
sufficient to defend the position. MenS

An nnrnrtant Discoyery.

The remains of Sir john FRANKLIN
and Crew are at last discovered, accord
ing to telegraph despatch from Montreal
0 the New York papers. The B"Iu-
more Sun of Monday says, CDR. RAE,
who was appointed in 1917 to make IN
vestga,ions on the borders Of the Arctic,
communicated to Sir GEORGE SIMPSON,
Governor Of the Hudson Bay Company,
that the explorer and his men had per-
ishcd by starvation in the spring of 1850
to the Northwest of Fox River. The IN
teligence seems to be entirely nuStWor-
thy. An extraordinary sensation Will be
created by the above announcement,
which needs no comment to deepen its
impressiveness. No event in modern
times has excited so long~continued and
so painful an interest as the voyage OF
Sir JomN Franklin in search of the North
west passage. He and his crew left
