The Baltic left Liverpool at o'clock on the
morning of the 4th, with 222 passengers. On
the 18th, off Cape Race, spoke and boarded
the British schooner John Clemens, cruising
for the missing boats, &C., of the Arctic, and
learned from her the particulars of the catas-
trophe.
The WAR.-Eight hours after the Europa
sailed from Liverpool, on the 30th ult., Off
cial news was received of great battle at the
river Almos, in the Crimea. On the Dist, the
allies stormed the Russian entertainments,
and after four hours hard fighting carried
them. The English and French lost $500
killed and wounded, while the Russians lost
6000. Private dispatches supply the further
particulars, namely: That the Russians, UNI

er Kaischa ON the 23d, and again gave battle
to the allies. He was again defeated and
driven into his entertainments behind Sebas-

third battle on the oath, and was third time
utterly defeated. He then fled with the rem

fell back and barricaded the inner harbor, re-
fusing to surrender. Six hours we've allowed
him to consider the matter, and it is reported,

the expiration of that time.

Britain and France on account of these VIC
