NAPOLEON Nor GOING TO THE cRIMEA.
1t is now positively stated that the con-
templsted journey of the Emperor Napoleon
to Constantinople end the Crimea has been
indefinitely suspended, if not abandoned;
and as all the Paris correspondents of the
morning journals concur in the statement. it
seems entitled TO credit. A eorroborative fact
is found in the Motieur, which publishes
an Imperial decree postponing the opening
of the Universal Exhibition from the Ist to
the 18th of May. As the time fixed for the
departure of the Emperor approached, the
crease as at last tc convince bis Majesty Of
the imprudence of the projected journey.
The Bishop Of Montpelier has given up his
mansion. with beautiful park, on the shores
of the Mediterranean, TO the French Gov.
ernmen mt for the reception of the GONZALES
cents from the Crimea. Il will accommo-
cate about 1000 patients. The Govern
ment have been deeply touched with this
generous act.
WHAT THE ALLIES ARE OUT OF, AND WHAT
THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT.
The Paris correspondent of the N. Y.
Times writes:
The Allies are out Of amunition, out of
men, out of luck, out of spirits, and out of
sorts. Their terrible bombardment, which
was to be followed by the assault in f We days
was prolonged to eleven, and then "provi-
sionalIy suspended" They are waiting for
more reinforcements. They are waiting for
more powder, and for more food for powdrr.
They want both sulphur and men. Lord
Raglan is clamorous for the Sandman con-
voy. The Allies are disappearing fast, while
the Russians are forever gathering faster
and faster, into and around the beleagured
city. The invaders guns are sprung, and
could not be safely fired, even if there was
ball to load them. These guns must have
repose. The Russians merely replace their:
by new ones drawn from those marve lous
arsenals, which form one of the revelation.
of this war. The Allies have completed
their telegraph from London and Paris tc
h alakIava, and have used il to forward com
plants and ill-tidings over, ever since il was
opened. Gortschakoff, a successful contin.
uer Of the Meschikoffian traditions, dispatched
daily bulletins to his master, conceived il
the same curt, precise imperturbable vain, as
these of his predecessor. He is preparing q
terrible and combined attack on the eniee

heat Of returning summer. They are won
dering whether they cannot get rid of thei
corpses by some more speedy and effectua
means than burial. They are talking of tho
employment of cemicat substance; Of the re
duction and consumption Of the dead by tn,
agency of acids. They live in fear of puiri
faction, decomposition, miasma, pestilenc'
and death, by worse scourge than war
In the meantime, they have made no breach

Fathers and cartridges, sons and congrev

WHAT THE RUSSIANS SAY OF THE SIEGE OF Sc
