like character the demand for loan Of seven hun
dred and fifty Millions and the calling ont Of fresh
bodies o. troops, have somewhat surprised the poo.
pie Of Vienna, who have hardly yet awakened to
the resl..y Of the war which convulsea Europe. No
hopes to be entertained that Austria will join
her to the allies at lsas. for the present. and
reports current to the effect that the sposca just
made by the Emperor Of France, and the hope he
expressed OF assistance from Austria, will be shortly
answered by further reduction in the Imperial
army. What sort Of effect such measure will pro-
duce upon England and France is yet to be seen.
Several reports have been received here from
Russian quarters respecting crueies alleged to have
been committed by the English and Turkish troops

pears In the Military Journai:-
ODESSA, June &c, 1855.
The capture Of Kersch and the bombsydnent Of
Tagan,0g with the cruelsies committed by the EGG
lish and rulkish soldiers, have greatly alarmed the
uDaImed Inhabitants 81 Odessa. The citizens OF our
town have firmly res lived sooner to die with arms Ia
their hands toan suffer such atrocities as were com
mitted in the towns of the Sea Of Az,f. 0ficiA
intelligence has bee received that the Greek High
Priest Of kertch hiss been tortured TO dsarl By the
English soldiery bis aite hacked into twenty pieess
and his dsu shter prasally outraged. depatstion
OF the most Influential merchants OF ragaarog it

nsry years great portion of Europe vita brasd,
and acsinq taat most Of the prop.ie.ors Of corn
were subjects Of the Austrian empire. - aas pts
pour uous," Ieplsd the Admiral; and two ho1rs
later the town wss in flames, and many oft5e richest
inhabitants reduced TO utter beggary.
How far these reports have been justified by facts
an unable at present to tell you. II such crimes
have been committed by the English troops, as the
above letter lsys to their charge is the dcty fthe
Russian government to make q formal notification
of the fact TO the commander Of the English
army, in order that the offenders may be pun
ished. In the absence Of this We can only be-
lieve that the reports are altogether false, aad
have bsen spread to excite the population Of
Russia sgaisst the Western Pc vers. The present
war is considered by the Russian people - war
in defence Of their religion, and nothing could be
better devised, the more to confirm such notion,
than tho statement that Of their priests had been
shsmefury and hrusaly murdered.
AS to the business Of ragsnrog, il cannot BE- sup.
posed that ths English admiral could allow, consist
emily with he duty, large supplies Of corn TO rsml
in security on the shore Of the Sea Of Az,f. He
knew full well the means of co nmunication by
which the Russians would avail themselves Of such
resources, and the foolish affair OF Odessa was mos.
probably fresh in his memory.
You are already aware tina. some months sioca
g,ea. preparations for war vera making in Stock
holm, and it was generally thought that no long
time would elapse befere her flag would weve 10 the
Baltic sea beside that cf the Western Powers.
Since the close of the Vienna Conferences, matters
have assumeda different appearance, and she seems
wsr At present. The trush of the matter is, that
neither Austria Eor SSeden can afford to run
the risk OF taking up arms against Russs,. ex,ep.
the allies car assure than BY some material qua
rantee that they are in Q position to assist them
The shores Of EJgard and France are distsot from
those Of Russia, but the whole force Of the Muscp
xite army could be easily thrown upon Austria 0;
Sweden.
Reports are rife respecting approaching hostili
ties between the Turks an the people of Monteue
gro, in addition TO which 1t is generally said taat
contention Of 20 violent nature has lately broken
cut between Prince Daniels and ns wife, that sepa-
ration Ia most likely to ensue. The Princess, lady
OF Trieste, has been the Of di ,m,ssing Pope
Stephen from the senate, thus dsp,ivlog the
Prince Of bis dearest friend, AID the Stale OF It's
most useful and influential member.
From the Crimes we have NO news Of any great
Importance; the position Of affairs remains nearly
the sane as on the date Of my last lettsr.
The lcsB OF the allies Ia est sted By the Military
Znung at IS 900 during the past week, and that OF
the Russisns ct 10 600 less. The allies are said to
be awaiting fresh reinforcemsnts from Narseiles
before recommending active operations. These may

The question respecting the Suez canal seem.
likely to give rise 10 considerable difficulties snd to
add no little conplexiy to the present ensangled
ceivcd permission to construct railway from Cairo
TO the coast Of the Red Sea, ard this circumstance
is put forward as one OF the grounds against .he
ptojsct Of cutting canal. The matter will, p-ob,-
