win try to attack Sevsstopol-it would be
sheer IAsdpess. characterized it 10 when all
England wss Dragging about the speedy capture
Of such an important fortress.
In Aria great battle is daily expected near
Ksrs; 80, 900 Turks are opposed there to about
the same number Of Russi,ns while the distance
which separates them amounts only TO three
miles There are runaors Of some sdvantsses
the Russians have gained over the Turks, ano
assia Of grest victory Of Shsmyl but as lar as
- - advces from Asia 90, both rumors are oe-
~ Ruodation. The Hungarian Genefai'ih 'he
Fice are highly satisfied with tne pres
N of the army, and complain only OF
of reserves, all the recruits being sent
en 20 the Danube or to the An'p' Y'hal'
aN< bd. therefore, some sudden disaster demor-
.lze the two great armies in the field, therewOud
scarcely be any possibility OF speedy and effective
relief They are, besides, dsgusted by the al
lies who, though themselves doing nothing. and
even preventing the Turks from action, have by
their presence raised the price of vietuals TO a
point which is not in proportion with the small
pay Of the Turkish army. OF course the aux
iliares are fed and they pay for their food On the
English and French footing.
The peasants On the Aland Islands have all
risen against the Russian authorities and mag
sistracy, who had to fee TO the fortress. You
viii remember that the Aland Islands form
group Of nearly two hundred little islands, of
which three only are large and capable of defense
II cannot be doubted that Bomarsund will be
taken, but The Times says now: "Io hold the
"Aland Islands with security during the winter,
eve ought TO be assured OF the cooperation OF
"Sweden-" As 10 such a cooperation, again the
ministerial organ bypocriticaly remarks: ave
"are unwilling to say anything having tendency
"to urge that brave and patriotic people to take
"sn active part in the war, until ii is distinctly
"seen what assistance and securities the western
Estates may have it in their power TO afford to
"ther northern ally; and on the other hand, be-
'sfore the western States consent 20 take upon
"themselves the responsibility and the obligations
"arising out of such an alliance, they must be
"well satisfied of its object and probable result.
With Spain The Times cannotbecome reconciled,
since II has found out that the Revolution is not
closed, but progressing; the Constitutional Cortes
are TO assemble on November the 9Th and re-
model the Constitutions even the question OF
the form oil Government is not excluded from the
business of this Convention. Orense, or, as
the Spaniards call him, the Marquis of Albaide,
chief of the Republicans, is continually gaining
ground, and Catalonia is ripe for republican
insurrection. Gen. Dulce sent by Espartero to
Barcelona as Captain General, is himself sus-
pected by the ModeradOs of being thoroughly
republican. The Junta Of Catalonia has invited
Espartero himself to Barcelona but it is not ex-
pected that he would accept such an invitation,
his last act in 1S40 having been the lombard
ment of Barcelona, which had risen against him.
By the by, the Queen is said to have fallen in
love with one of the foreign Ambassadors, but
this seems TO be nearly as absurd q wonder as
the story of the extravaganza of Dickens, the
novelist, who has not absconded to BOulogne, and
lives, as he always did, in quiet way. The
American papers have been hoaxed by somebody
respect to him. A. p. c.

neither the pure Russian party, nor the Russo
Coburg party, nor the Constitutional party are
satisfied with tse course of the Spanish revolu-
ton. From this it would appear that there is
some chance for Spain, Notwithstanding the
contradiction of appearances.
On the 9Th inst. deputation from the Union
Club waited on Espartero to present an address
calling for the adoption Of universal suffrage.
Numerous petitions to the same effect were pour
ing in. Consequently, long and animated de-
bate took place at the Council of Ministers. But
the partisans Of universal suffrage, Is well as
the partisans of the electonlaw of lS46, have
been beaten. The Madrid Gaeeta publishes
decree for the conyokation Of the Cortes on the
9Th of Nov, preceded by an erpost addressed to
the Queen. At the elections, the law of 1887
will be followed, with slight notifications. The
Cortes are to be one Constituent Assembly,
the legislative functions Of the Senate being sup
pressed. Two paragraphs of the law of loi6,
have been preserved, viz: the mode of forming
the electoral mssas, (boards receiving the votes
and publishing the returns,) and the number Of
deputies; deputy to be elected for every 900
souls. The Assembly will thus be composed of
