From the Inyalide Russo
Russian Account of the Battle OF Inkor-

This morning, Nov IL, his Majesty the Emperor
received, from the hands Of the Captain of Cayal.
ry, Count Levascho1 the following report from
General Prince Menschikoi, under date Of Novem-
Der 6:
Yesterday, the 9th, sortie was made from Sc
bastopol on the side of the bastion No the fol-
lowing troops took part in 1t OF the 10th divis-
ion OF infantry, the regiments Of CatherinebourQ.
Tomsk, and kolyyan. OF the lth division of in
kntry, the regiments OF Vladimir, Sourdal and
0uglitch, and Of the 18th division Of infantry, the
regiments of Boutirsk, Borodino, and Taroutino.
As many guns were employed as the difficulty of
the gates permitted the men to take with them. A
part Of the troops passed over the bridge OF In
hermann.
Gen. Dannenberg, the commander-in-chief OF the
4th infantry corps. ttA
Our first attack ON the heights was very fortu-
nate; the English Notifications were carried, and
eleven Of their guns spiked. Unfortunately, in this
first movement, the commanders of the troops, who
were attacking the entertainments and rcdoubts,
were wounded. While these events were passing,
the French forces arrived in aid of the English.
The siege artillery of these last was placed in posi-
ton on the field Of battle and Ii longer pos
sible for our field pieces TO contend with 1t to ad
vantage. The numerical superiority of the enemy's
infantry, armed with rifles, occasioned great losses
in horses, artillerymen, and infantry horses.
This circumstance made it impossible for us to
complete, except by great sacrifice Of troops, the
redoubts which during the fighting, we had begun
to throw up on points which the enemys position
commanded, even as far as the town Of Sebastopol
itself
The retreat was effected in good order on Sebas-
topol and over the bridge of hkermann, and the
dismounted guns were carried off the field of bat
tie back into the place.
The Grand Duke NichOIaa Nicholaieytch and
Michael Nichoaievtch were in the midst ofthe ter
riblc fire, setting an example of calm courage in
the fight.
simultaneously with this sortie the infantry regi-
ment Of Mnsk, with light battery Of artillery, I'M
der the command of the Major General Of artle-
ry Timofeiff executed another sortie against the
French batteries, and spiked fifteen of their guns

The THOMPSON CAsE.--The last, number Of the
Greenbrier Era devotes considerable space to the
acquittal Of DR.. Thompson, his subsequent move
ments, and the sentiment Of the people relative to
the case II appears the jury stood eleven for ac-
quittal to one against; but that one, being a mod
est man, said, that though he thought the prisoner
richly deserved hanging, he would not insist on
his opinion against those Of his eleven intelligent
compeers! The verdict produced good deal Of
excitement in Covington, aad paper was drawn
up requesting Thompson TO leave town; but he
left before IL was presented He attempted TO
make speech when he was acquitted. He thank
ed the jury for their verdict asserted his innocence
said that Miss Pharr descended TO her grave vir-
gin. and was going on to give reasons when Judge
Hudson refused to hear him. The Era says he
then offered his hand TO the Commonwealth's at
torney, when that gentleman turned his back upon
him. He then went to tavern and asked the
crowd 10 drink at his expense but only bis brother
and one Of the jurymen accepted the invitation.
The people Of Greenbricr county have held an
indignation meeting, and passed series Of resolu-
tons, which are published in the Era, with this
description Of Thompson appended:

and slim; OF salow brunette complexion, black

Mr.. Grund.

In regard to the rumored appointment Of this
foreigner to lucrative consulship abroad, the
New York Express says:
The promised appointment Of Francis Grund, the
German Radical political writer, as Consul of the
United States to Marseilles, excites good deal Of
feeling and indignation in Washington, especially
among the members of Congress. Mr.. Grund
boasts that "he has got his commission in his
pocket which Ia not true, and Is more probable
that he win not go to Marsees He Is polling the
Senate just now, we are told, in order TO test his
chances Of confirmation, should the President deem
it wise to send his nomination there. II he can
pass the Senate, he will be sent In. If not, not.
Mr.. Marcy has not been consulted in this matter,
and will hardly consent to such an appointment at
such point in Europe, and which, during the war
in the East Is one of the most important. The
thing, SO far, is in reality only promise Of the
President, which, for reasons, may be Withdrawn

The following letter, from VIM. Smith 0'Brien,
appears in the Paris Galgnanl's Messenger:
SrR: have seen in your journal Of to-day's date
extract from the Limerick Chronicle stating that
the friends of Mr.. William Smith 0Brien have it
in contemplation to solicit the influence of the En-
peror Of the French with gracious sovereign to
remove all conditions from the royal pardon which
may be done 1.-THE paragraph adds with perfect
safety and propriety, that gentleman has taken
final leave Of political agitation for the remainder
Of his life. know not whether this statement is
as unfounded as many others respecting me which
have appeared in the newspapers during my alb
sence from Europe; but, II it be wen founded,
wish II TO be known that such an application az
that here contemplated, has not been sanctioned,
still less prompted by me. prize beyond expires.
sion the sentiment which has induced large por-
ton Of the Irish nation TO evince anxiety for my
return and feel deeply grateful for the sympathy
which has been exhibited In the United States, the
British colonies, and elsewhere, towards the Irish
political exiles but il does not seem TO me TO be
consistent with the dignity Of my country 10 So
licit foreign Intervention on our behalf For my
own part, | am not conscious that have done any
thing which disentitles me from spending the re-
mainder ofmy life in Ireland, which country Is not

foreign country. Such a lot, though preferable to
Imprisonment in Van Dieman's Land, naturally

From all accounts, II would seem that the
Democracy of Virginia are not disposed to
wheel into the support Of Mr. Wise with their
customary alacrity Signs of disafection are
everywhere manifest particularly among the
old Democratic veterans, who are naturally in
dignant at seeing all the fat offices bestowed
upon recent converts. Among other promi-
nent old-liners who show great reluctance to
swallow the Staunton nominations, is said to
be the Hon. Fayette McMullen, a veteran sol
der, who is covered with the sears of many a
hard-fought political contest A correspondent
Of the Petersburg Intelligence states, that du-
ring recent visit to Richmond, he was re-
ported to have said openly on the streets that
the nomination Of Wise was procured by a
band Of renegade Wings that the old-line
Democrats had no lot nor part in the matter,
and could not be expected TO support ticket
SO revolving to their sense Of justice. If this
be true, the honorable gentleman will be apt
to receive an excoriation from the Richmond
Enquirer and we fear that his imprudence viii
deprive him Of all prospect Of obtaining for
eign mission. But the administration will find
him rough customer, and, If he really has
determined to oppose the election Of Wise, he
win damage the prospects Of that gentleman
very materially.
The following extract from private letter
which we received few days ago from gem
tleman who witnessed the proceedings Of the
Staunton Convention, will give some idea of
the state Of feeling existing II was not bad
idea that of christening the nominees Natu-
rallied Democrats almost rivals in point
Mr. Baldwins toast, who gave:
"The Democratic party Of Virginia When
asked for her jewels, she points to her--rene-
gade Wings"
Our readers doubtless remember Mr.. Cal
houn's beautiful sentiment Of which this is an
obvious paraphrase:
ave have great work before us now in Vir-
gnia. ticket has been put forth-Wise, McCo-
mas, and Bocock--bitterly hostile to our great
American cause That ticket must be beaten. 1t
can be done, and ,siH be DONE IL we are active.
One half the Democratic party regard themselves
as "sold out" by the nominations. 1t is impossi-
BILE for you to conceive the extent Of dissatisfaction
with which one half of the convention left here.
Many members swear they viii not support the
nominees, and others viii vote but not work for the
ticket, The whole ticket are renegade Wings. This
fact disgrunAes the old line Democrats beyond
measure. We have dubbed the nominees ndtu-
ralised Democratic In contradistinction to the old
wool-dyed native-born locofocos. They are all
bitterly dislked by the more immediate friends OF
Leake and Smith,"
