In my last letter mentioned that Mr.. Soule
American representative ct Madrid had been refused
permission to pass through France on his return to
the Spanish capital. It seems that the statement
was correct It has caused some sensation among
the American residents at Paris, and Mr.. Mason
has had some communications with M. Drouyn
dc rHuys, the French Minister Of Foreign
Affairs ON the subject. 1t appears that Mr.. Soule
left London for Calais with the purpose Of visiting
Paris, and so on to Madrid On his arrival OF Calais
he was waited upon by the Mayor, who sigaiaed to
him that an order had bsen received from the
French government to prevent his passage through
the French territory. Mr.. Soule then asked what
would be done in case Of his noncompliance. The
report is Il canno. vouch for its accuracy) that the
Mayor telegraphed to Paris for instructions, and
received for answer that If Mr.. Soul6 persisted he
was to be arrested. Mr.. Soule then returned to
London.
As regards the siege Of Sebsstopol, the accounts
are very contradictory. 1t is officially confirmed that
the bombardment commenced on the 18th October,
by land and The last re ,ble accounts are to the
2lst October We learn that the fleets were actively
engaged and suffered some loss, namely-9O killed
and 200 wounded. The Agamemnon, Admiral Lyons
ship, Is reported to have suffered most; the Rstri.

the Vile de Paris, killed one Of his aides de.camp
and wounded another. Fort Quarantine ia reported
to have been silenced by the French squadron,
whilst the forts to the left Of the harbor on entering
Are said to have been blown up by the English.
Another account adds that breach had been made

schikof had not made any attempt to attack the
camp of the allies at Balaklava. A Russian tele-
graph purports to bring news from Sch astopol to

that little damage had been done to the forts, that
successful sorie had been made against the French
which eleven guns and eight mortars were spiked.
