NEW YORK, Nov. 22,-The screw steamer
Canadian has arrived at Portland, Maine, bring
ing dates from Liverpool to the 7th inst, three
days later than the accounts brought by the
Asia. Her advices embrace the following i'm
portant intelligence from the seat of war:
Siege of sebastopol.
The latest accounts from the camp about Sc
bastopol state that the siege was prosecuted
with great yigor, the bombardment being kept
up day and night, leaving the besieged no time
to repair the breaches or the damages in the
town. Forts Constantine and Quarantine are
stated to have been demolished, and also the
greater portion Of the southern quarter Of the
town. The city was on fire in three places, and
some of the dispatches, received at Paris and
London, say that Sebastopol was a mass of
ruins.
The Russians suffered great disadvantage
from the position of the French Chasseurs, who
would pick off the artillery men along the walls
as fast as they would sissH siilemselves.
An unceasing shower of balls was poured upon
the city and bay, and the Russian ships in the
harbor had sought shelter alongside the quays
The Allies we're preparing batteries to command
the quays, and were about to pour red hot shot
on the shipping there.
Iron cylinders were being prepared by the
Allies for the purpose of blowing up the sunken
ships at the entrance Of the harbor Large re-
Inducements for the Allies were on the way to
Sehastopol from England and France Private
dispatches state that the town would positively
be taken by assault on the Sd of November.
The attack upon the town from sea had not
been renewed.
Battle at BaIaklava.
q Further accounts of the battle Of Balaklava
have been received They state that the Rus
slams had a thousand men killed in that engage
ment.
The Baltic.
One hundred and twenty gunboats and forty
floating batteries have been ordered to be CON
structed for service in the Baltic.

port that Louis Napoleon had withdrawn the
order for Mr., soule's exclusion from France,
and that Mr.. $. had permission to pass through
France on his way to Madrid
