ARRIVAL OF THE PACIFIC.
ONE WEEK LATER FROM EUROPE

New York, Jan. Is.
The steamship Pacific reached her dock at
o'clock this morning from Liverpool on the after
noon of the 18th.
The eastern question has assumed ON entirely
new phaxe. Prince Gortschakoff has announced
that the Gar has accepted not only the five points
of guarantee, but also the Interpretation given to
them by the three powers, but as no armistice
has been agreed to, hostilites will continue du-
ring the progress of the negotiations. SARDINIA
has Joined the western alliance. The conduct of
Prussia and the German States is still equivocal.
The sincerity of Russia is doubted, and cOnsols
which first advanced two per cent afterwards fell
back. The Allies it is said, will insist on the
Russian naval power in the Black Sea being placed
on a level with that of the other powers as pro-
ject of their success, and this point it is expect
ed negotiations will split, Russia will or no ac-
count assent to this.
Several heavy failures are reported.
Large amounts in the new French loan continue
to be taken up in England at a premium of and
per cent.
The Russians have invaded the Princpalties.
A dispatch dated Brailow, January 9th, says
IS the Russians have crossed the Danube and IN
vaded the Dobrudscha and taken both Satcha and
Boladagh. Sadick Pacha defended Tulshcha as
long as possible"
Prussia had answered the demand of Austria
concerning the army by refusal to comply at
present.
In regard to the siege of Sebastopol, the last
dispatches published by the British Government
are to the Goth of Dec, and embrace only what
We have received via st. Petersburg,
We have dispatch from MenschikOf which
says ''nOthing new has occurred. We continue
to annoy the enemy by night actions. In one of
these We made ten Zouvares prisoners"
III weather very variable.
The Railway from Balaklava to the camp, was
to be commenced at once. The fire of the Allies
continued very futile and caused scarcely any
fha no arrs-
son were constructing bridge of boats to con-
meet Sebastopol with the North side.
There a report in Paris on the 18th, that
Sebastopol had fallen, but it did not give general
belief.
Omer Pacha embarked on the LIST, for Balak-
lava. He has taken means to bring force of
$4,000 men and 600 guns into Crimea. 10000
Turks have already landed ut Eupatoria.
Menschikof is reported to have called in all his
detached forces.
Osten Sacken was watching the Turks at Eu-
patoria, the garrison of which had been augment
ed.
The 5th or 9th of January was looked upon at
the time when an assault upon SebastOpol would
take place.
The proposed meditation of the United States
had excited less attention than might have been
supposed. The London Times treats the question
with great candor and submits the United States
must allow that such offer of meditation may be
declined in any special case, and no disrespect
be implied by the declinatiOn of it.. 1t is free to
the one party to offer its friendly services, and
free to the other to accept them.
