SENDING PAUPERs WEsr.-The Directors of
the Cincinnati City IGfirmary, in "a letter 10
the Mayor OF New York, complained that tho
authorities of that city sent from hree TO Il
paupers weekly to Cincinnati who became q
puDlIc charge. The Mtyor. in reply says that
these paupers were forwarded directly from
Europe, aud gives, in proof, the clse OF the
Ham 'urgh ship Deutschland, which brought
four criminals from the Duchy OF NJ eckenberg,
who were provided with through tickets from
New York to Milwaukee, which had been pur-
chased AT Hamburg at the expense of the au-
thorities of Gastrow, where the men had been
imprisoned. Such proceedings on the part of
the Germanic States should call forth deci-

I Tue NEws.-TIe latest dispatches from the
seat Of war report officially, from Lord STRAIT
ford Redcliffe, victory gained, on the 5tb
If November, by Omar Pasha, over force of
ten thousand Russians, mostly Georgian mill
tia, at the river Ingour, which Omar Pasha,
with the Turks, 10000 strong, crossed at fonr
points, taking 80 prisoners, three guns, and
causing a loss of 400 in killed and wounded.
The Turkish loss is 500. A private despatch
which evidently refers to the same encounter
says the Turks crossed the river Anakavl and
stormed the Russian redoubts, after which
they pushed forward towards kGlais. Kars
was still beseged, but appearances indicate
that the Russians will retire TO Tifis. There
is nothing new from the Crimea. Both armies
are wholly occupied in hutting, preparing for
winter. The latest despatch from Gorscha-
kof, dated November 9th, says there is moth
ing in the Crmel. The enemy continu~
to occupy the valley of Blidar, where they
have two divisions. 4 Russian Cadet who had
deserted reported that Gortschalloff had de-
termined to hazard an attack upcn tine Allies
who were in consequence every night reinftr-
cling their advanced posts, and supporting
them with field artillery. Rumors of peace
are extremely prevalent, but vague. Diplo-
macy il active, especially at Stockholm Vi
ennl and Brussels. Berlin despatch, dated
the 3D., says it apPeers more and more posi-
tive that praliminaries are being arranged al
Brussels, with the assent Of Russia, for the
resumption ofnegotiations. Notwithstanding
all the denals are persisted in, it is believed
that peace is not far off.

MILITARY AND SCIENTIFIC CH.sArER]o OF Rus

military AND SCIENTIFIC CHARAFER OF Rus
SIAN OFFICERs.-The London Times OF the 9th
uit., in one Of its leading cditori la, expresses
itself in the following terms of the superior cf-
ficicncy of the officers in the Russi,tn army:
Nothing has come ont more clearly in the
course OF this war than the high miiit ,ry and
scientific character OF the Russian officers
Through tri al of unex lmpled severty they
have shown themselves in every WAY worthy
of the conf lcn2e of their iSterand of the re-
putitlon OF 4 great military monarchy. Ard M
in attack, uId ,unte,l in retreat, full of skill
energy, and resource under all circumstances
masters OF the three llngulges of the three de-
ligcrent Powers, it makes one shudder, to re-
feet what such a band officers might ac-
complish if supported by troops worthy OF such
LADDERS. The Russian army, like our own is
officered by gentlemen, but by gentlemen who
have not merely rank and he courage of their
class. but its education and its acauiremepts.
While poor General Simpson cannot even at
tempt u single word OF French, vast number
OF tie officers of the Russian army speak our
language as well as ourselves. Their scientif
ic defence was silent satire on our rude at
tack, and the superiority in skill of the CHAM
pions of barbarism over those OF civilization
is written in our best blood. saae3te - 81
