THE WAR.

Th news from Sebastopol is not very
important. The following are the yer,
latest dispatches;
Under date Of July 10th, IL O'Clock P.
NJ, General Pelissier telegraphed:
The enemy, who had for some days pD.
deayored IN vain to stop our left approache,
in front of tie Malakof Tower, attempted
last night to drive US back, but they were
repulsed by the first division of the second
corps. Three times the Russians threw
themselves upon our trenches with their
usual shouting, but after each ATTEMPT they
were compelled to retreat by the steady fire
| and calm attitude of our soldiers, leaving be.
hind them many Of their slain.
July II, General Simpson teIegraphs.
Nothing of Importance has occurred. THE
army is i'll good health.
July l8, he telegraphs: A sortie made on
the left attack was repulsed with only three
casualties on the British side.
The Paris Patrie Of July 10, saws: Ac.
cording to the news received this morning.
the Russians attempted another sorte last
nigh about ten o'clock, against the bat
terIes OF Careening Bay and were vigorous
ly repulsed, Letters say that the Russian
ships begin to suffer from the French nor
tar battery on the side of Quarantine Bay
and deserters say that the rations of the
shipping are reduced one-half
The French have cleared Kamiesch Of
all suspicious persons, and have established
a municipality.
The Sardinian and Turkish forces have
again withdrawn from the valley of Bridar
to Balaklaya. This may indicate either M
other modification in the plan of campaign
or that field operations against the Russians
have been abandoned.
The report is confirmed that the Russians
have received reinforcements. GortschakOf
has written to st. Petersburg acknowledg
ing their arrival.
a despatch from General Simpson is pub
llshed, giving an account of the embarka
tlon Of the body of Lord Raglan, for Eng
land. Pelissier placed a garland of inlmOr-
telleS on the coffin, and the French troops
formed an avenue Ofmen six miles long, from
the camp to the sea.
The British General Eyre has had leg
amputated. General Sir John Campbell
died within Sebastopol, and under flag Of

The bill in relation TO ship passengers prepared
by the merchants of this City, and which passed
the House of Representatives unanimously few
days since, has psssed the Senste, with two
amendments, in which the House has concurred.
One Of these provides that all the food served TO
the passengers shall be furnished to them properly
cooked. The present custom in our packets is to
cook the food or not, as majority of the psssen-
gers may elect; but it appears desirable that all
the food should be carefully prepared under the
supervision of the officers of the ship. The bill
now before the Brti.h Parliament makes the
same requirement in regard to cooked provisions.
Another amt ndment, made in the Senate, provides
that the ship-owner SHALL on entering bis ship at
any port in this country, return 80 Of the pas
sage.moDey for every passenger over eight years
of sge who shall have died on the passage from
disease,

Yesterday we received, about o'cock in The morn.
ing the details of the opening of the Panama Rail
road and they were set up and inserted in our COL
umrs notwithstanding the late hour, though they
filed whole page. BY this means hundreds OF thou
sands OF persons made acquainted with the exist
ence and value of the road. We mention this fact
because il is in accordance with the publicity which
the Press-and the Pres alone-has given TO the az
fairs OF that Road, from the time that was crude
idea. A Press so sustaining such enterprise, &C.
cordiDg to the usual forms of comfy not to say Of
Justice deserved to be sgnalzed at the great cee-
brston in question. If not mentioned as one Of the
"piopeers of the enterprise it the pioneer
it should have al least been recognized in the reg.
ular toasts but il was wholly omitted. The stereo-
typed snobs who prepared the oass gave the stereo-
typed sentiments about Governors, Presidents, Legs-
lsiure rst-the usual official redtspe stuffthen the
por esrs of the enterprise, the press not included,
were given; then the Army and Navy then some
personal toas's and so closed the regulars Mr..
Sanford, of The Journal Of Commerce, ho~ever, be-
ing spied out as one of the company, The Press
was then given as volunteer but, in responding,
Mr.. Sanford seems to us TO have made an oversight
in no, resenting the omission from the regular pro-
ceedipgs OF that institution to which the Road owes
its being.

StOnhope Burleigl is the dtle Of new book, de-
scrbed as a novel, written by Helen Dhu, and pulled
by that eminent literary authority, Mr.. james w.
Barker, the G.. ?. Of the X. Ns OF course it is a
X. n. publication showing up the enoruities Of Sew
ard, Weed and Greeley, and especially their collision
with Bishop Hughes for the overthrow Of American
institutions This may be very interesting novel,
ard really mean all it pretends to, but we know tia,
it was offered, not precisely 10 its present form
throughout, perhaps, to the proprietors of rHE
TRIBUNE few years since, and did not fad a
market. And Helen Dhu "a lady of Scotch birth
apparently may be the. author Of it now bat
then it was Mr.. c. Edwards Lester formerly
L. s. Consul at Genoa inventor Of the Ivory
