LATER FROM EUROPE.

I b1A0 1919 F'bN
arrived at New York Thursday morning, with
2l7 passengers, and news one week later, but
indefinite and uuimportant.
Sepastopol was to be blown up by the allies,
mines having been sunk for that purpose. On
the Goth Of Sept. the Russians were defeated
neat Eupatoria by French cavalry. Loss, so
killed and 90 wounded. French loss, six killed
and 81 wounded. The Russians seem deter
mined 10 meet the campaign vigorously. The
emperor was at Odessa. He has issued an en-
couraging address To the Russian people, and
will shortly be in the Crimea. There is a re-
por, that the Russians arc making preparations
for the evacuation Of the north forts Of Sebasto-
pol. Gortschakoff has issued a hopeful address
to his soldiers. He admits the loss Of 500 to
1000 men per day for thirty days previous to
the close Of the siege, but he says in conclusion
Sebasiopol only unclaimed us TO lis walls
We are now free, and a new war commences.
He also reports that imposing masses of the al
lied troops continue TO threaten the left wing Of
the Russian army, from the Valley of Baidar,
whilst a force amounting to between 30 and 49,
900 men threaten the right wing of The Russians
from Eupatoria.
Gor,schakoff reports an Intellectual movement
against his left flank, on the Sd inst.-The al
lied feet had sailed on a secret expedition, sup
posed to be against Nicolaieffor Odessa. A let
ter from Revel estimates the Russian marine
losses in that part Of the Baltic ut 40, 900 tons,
The Russians had captured a Turkish convoy
at Aars, with provisions, together with ! 900
horses and 300 men. But Kars still held out,
although its provisions were nearly exhausted.
1t was however hoped that the snow would com
pei the Russians 10 retire.
The allies aie reported to have established
100 moriars at Sebastopol, with which they
would soon render the north side untenable.-
Pelissier reports, on the LIST instant, that a bril-
liant contest of cavalry was fought on the Goth
ult, at koughil, FIVE leagues north east of Eu-
patoria, in which the Russian cavalry, command
ed by Gen Korf, were defeated by the French
cavalry, under General Allonyille. Six guns,
twelve ammunition-waeons, and a campaign
forge, with all the appurtenances and l60 pris-
oners, of whom 9 were officers, were captured,
besides $50 horses Of The Russian Hulans. Fif-
ty Of the Russians were killed among them
was Colonel Androwsky. Of the French, six
were killed and twenty-seven wounded. There
were various reports that the Russians had evac-
uated the north side Of Sebatopol and were in
full retreat, but they needed confirmation.
The discomfort in Russian Poland and the Tx
raine has risen to a very serious hight. : The
successive calls for enlistment had deprived those
countries Of the young and able-bodied men,
which was severely felt before the recent har-
vest. A government, survey had been ordered,
to see if Poland can furnish sufficient corn for
the supply of the army during the next cam
paign. 1t is thought the result of this enquiry
will greatly influence the decision of the gov
eminent as 10 the continuance of the war. When
the disaster at Sebastopol was made known, the
~populace of St. Petersburg became dreadfully
excited, aud meeting the carriage ofihe empress
in the streets, followed il on it's way to the pal
ace with shouts Of "vengance for Sebastopol''
etc. On the eve before the czar's departure for
the south, it was resolved in grand council, to
carry on the war with the utmost energy and
defend the Crimea TO the last extremity.
A Week Later--By the Africa.
Dates from Liverpool of October Is reach
us by the steamer Africa at Halifax on We'd
nesday. From the seat Of war comes nothing
new the allies were actively moving towards
new conquesis, but had accomplished nothing.
The business news, is that the Gotten market is
greatly depressed, prices being lid to led
per pound lower breadsiuis in fair demand,
with a slight advance in some descriptions
money market very light and consols down to
81 l-2.
Gen. Simpson, the English commander, in
his last dispatch from the seat of war, dated
September 29ih, says that ninety-fve hundred
men were daily employed in making a road
from Ralatlaua AZ sha alltaI o,rnn Eo,;u,o
parties in the town were engaged in getting
timber and other materials from the ruins Of
buildings, in order 10 get a shelter for the
troops before the bad weather sets in. The
Russian fire from the batteries on the north side
caused Gen. Simpson some little annoyance,
but had not prevented the work being carried
on. By the explosion of a kind of Internal ma
chine, numbers of which had been dug up in
various parts of the town and batteries, an
officer and nineteen men were wounded. Gen.
Simpson reports a trifing engagement in which
a detachment OF Cossacks was beaten back by
the English near Kertsch.
The allied fleet anchored off Odessa on the
9Th of October, for an attack upon that place.
No news of the bombardment had been received
up 10 the latest dates, but it was expected dali
ly. Odessa, since the destruction of the corn
forts in the Sea of Azof, has formed the chief,
if not the sole means of support of the Rus
sian army in the Crimea. The emperor OF
Russia and suite were at Odessa on the 22d Of
Sept, but left the next day to attend a council
Of war at Nicolaid, where some ~forty-fve
thousand men were concentrated. The Inva-
Tide Russo, a Russian journal, gives the total
loss of the Russian garrison al Sebastopol on
the 9Th of September in killed, wounded and
missing, at eleven thousand seven hundred and
one. 1t a~lso.says that the Russians lost fifteen
hundred men on the 10th of August, and one
thousand a day every day thence up to the 9Th
of September, making a total at thirty-two
thousand in three weeks, irrespective of those
who died Of disease.
A dispatch from Gortschakof, the Russian
commander in the Crimea, dated Oct. o, has
