his nous tains with 10000 men, all mounted on
thoses s5 ggy horses, whose endurance has always
been 10 much admired Ii IL razza on the
xrande scale. About two hundred villages were
sacked and burnt and the Russian landlords
and the families Of the officers either slain or car
RED irto the mountains. A panic has seized Ti6s,
since some adventurous CircassiaDs have been
seen at the very outskirts of the capital. The
Russians, threatened in their rear, could not take
any advantage of their recent victories at Kars
and at Bayazid. They have therefore destroyed the
Qualifications of Bayazd and evacuated the town,
while at Kars they have not the courage to adj
vance. I4e news Of tire appointment OF GuyOn
to the command -in-cbief in Asia has not been con-
frmed the contrary 1t seems that he has lett the
troops in disgust, and is going to ConstantlnOple.
The Poles who did not cease to intrigue against
him, have already left Kars, and Klapka has not
got any appointment.
The Austrians have entered Bucharest, and,
though not al war WIN huteit, thty are NOW hc-

The choerais making frightful ravages in Munich,
and the great German exhibition has come to pre-
mature end by the panic, which dispersed all the
assembled visitors. la Varna the disease has alto
gether subsidized, but in London the mortalityis
still increasing. The neighbOrhOod of Regentst.,
principally Silver-st., Golden-square, Great MARI
borough and Argyle-sts., the residence of Lord
Aberdeen and Cardinal Wiseman, were suddenly
visited in an alarming way. This portion of the
town is constructed on the site Of the great
plague cemetery of 1852, and it is said that the
viruence of the cholera is mainly TO be attributed
to the construction of a large sewer. which has

The camp Of BOulOme and the visit Of Prince
Albert to Emperor Napoleon have not made any
great impression on the public in France, where
1t il only remarked that the Emperor seems to
continue TO avoid Paris. He is now visiting Bel
GUM and probably will strongly reinforce the gar
rison of Paris before he ventures again to take up
his abode in the Tuileries.
In Spain the republican party is for the moment
suppressed. Espartero has done his task; it was
only by his unmerited popularity that public ex-
citement could be Gained down. The Moderado

England and France that Poland is not to be re-
constructed by the preeent war. Lord Aberdeen
and Louis Napoleon would be, of course, ashamed
to have done once in their lives political act of
Justice But still the force Of events will sooner
or later compel the allies 10 attack Russia ON the
enly point where she can be attacked with sue
cess. The occupation of the Crimea will not force
the Gar to conclude peace.
According to the latest sdvices the Russians
are eyacuating Braila and Galatch, those import
ant positions on the Danube. The Austrians have
accordingly no opportunity now for coming into
conflict With the Russians, even if they ever had
such an intention. The evacuation shows clearly /
that the Austrian occupation Of the Princpalities
was done in concert and with the permission and !
