THE WAR IN THE CRlMEA.
THE BATTLE OF THE TWENrY-FIFrH OF
OCTOBER.

Our latest intelligence received by the Canada was to
the effect that the battle Of the 25th October thou
sand men, and 600 horses belonging the English
killed in three hours, by overwhelming force of Rus
SLAMS This intelligence reached Liverpool but short
time previous to the sailing Of the Canada and may
be supposed, caused universal surprise and pain.
Further advices confirm the main features Of this
terrible disaster but fortunately not to quite great
an extent at first reported The charge OF cava

was it is said the result Of mistake or least of
misconcepcn of orders arising from the esprit dc corps

plot to retrieve the secondary part they played at the
battle of Alma. In short, that in misconstrung an
order from the Commandern-ehief, conveyed by Cap

is reported that Austria and Prussia have smoothed
their differences sofar the Germanc States are con-
cerned, and joint demand win be made upon the body
of the Diet by both these Powers.
All the smaller German States, particularly those OF
the South are engaged in putting their armies
footing though it decided already that the whole
German nation will adhere to Austria's policy.
The indications (says English account) of the often
sve and defensive alliance about to be brought to close
between Austria and the Western Powers eaously
watched by the Cabinet of Prussia, and Lord Palmer
sons presence at Paris is considered furthering such
treaty. Negotiations continue active between the
Russian and Prussian Courts. Baron Brunow had re-
turned 2th nst) from St. Petersburg TO Berlin, to have
joint interview with M. de Manteuffe the Prussian
PREMIER and Baron Budberg the Russian ambassador at
Berlin.
The statement with respect to Austria, u.s. that they
will not under any circumstances take the field against
Russia, until the spring AS long the Russian troops
concentrated along the Austrian frontier there

and the cabinet of St Petersburg to prevent such
ualy, and anxious not to give umbrage to Austria has
announced its willingness to withdraw this menacing
force and during the winter to place it in some other
equally advantageous strategic position"
Austria, while accepting this accommodation, win con-
tinue her ornaments.
