GOVERNOR CLARK's MESSAGE.

ALBANY, Saturday, Dec. 30, 1854.
We understand that the Governor elect has not yet
decided as to the proprety Of allowing the forthcoT
rg Message to go out of the city in advance Of iu
delivery to the Legislature. 1t is quite probable,
however, that Governor Clark will adopt the same
course as has been adopted by his predecessors for
several years past, and take measures to have his
Message delivered simultaneously to the public Of
New-York end Albany.

ARRIVAL OF THE GOLDEN GATE!
LATER FROM TEE SEAT OF WAR

The expected great battles in the Cri-
2ea had taken place, with the most fear
tul results, Seb9stopol had fallen, and
was in flames, ten ships Of war had been
sunk, le.GoJ Russians and 10, 900 French
md English are reported to have ben
slain. % 600 Russians bad been taken
prisone s, and 900 guns taken. SIX
Russians ships had however. ESCAPED
Such, in b.ief, i, the news which we
suppose will be iully confirmed by the
next steamer.
A letter from ST. Petersburg Of Sept.
2lst, before the battle, IN the Cologne
.Gaze!te, says, the news of the landing OF
the troops has produced here he most
marked impression. The success of this
enterprise is f'm!y believed in, notwith-
standing The assu ances to the contrary
spread abroad by the government. The
police have made several arrests in dil-
tereut clubs, particularly the English
and German. Imprud mt speakers have
been taken to the fortress of Pelraupo-
loski, because they expressed the belief
that the landing hid taken pl zee. The
CONSERVATION IS general and the satisfac-
ton Is still greater and more univers i.
The Austrian Ambassador at 'arls
called on NJ. Druyn De LHuys to ex-
press the satisfaction of his government
at the success Of The allied arms.
From the Danube we lzarn that the
Turks were fastening through bulgaria,
by forced marches on The sea co .st. Ii
is stated, on the au hority of the Ger
man Journal of Frankp1rt, that the
English Cabinet brought forward an
overture to revise the protocol Of Lon
don, relative TO the Danish succession.
and that this new element will form an
important part N future negotiations for
peace.
A dispatch came through Belgrade as
follows:
Fhe allied armies yesterday attacked
the position Of the en- my on the heights
aboye the Alma, and ,rried it, after a
desperate battle, about an hour and a
halt before sunset Nothing could sur

OF the troops The position was very
formidable and defended by numerous
artillery Of heavy cal.bre. Our loss. |
regret to add, is very considerable. but
no general oficer has been wonnded.-
