Arrival of the Asia.

HALIFAX, Nov. 7-Steamship Asia from
Liverpool, on A. M. of 9th Of October, ar
rived here this A. NJ, and reports the North
Star steamer from New York, off Southamp-
ton. News unimportant.
The report that the Russians had blown
up Fort Nicholas, and other Notifications at
Otzackoff was confirmed.
Advices from Sevastopol state the Allies
to be advancing in strength the Russians
falling back upon their fortified position, the
Allies close on the Russians at Aldie, where
it is thought they must make a stand, in
which case battle is inevitable.
The Russians on the north side keep up
constant fire on Sevastopol under cover of
which they were Withdrawing troops, and
concentrating them in Perekop.
A Russian dispatch of the 22d says, the
allies had marched 10000 uoops from Eu-
patOria towards Soulath.
The English gunboats had reconoitered
the river almost up to Nicholoff.
A lat st. Petersburgh despatch says. the
whole military has been ordered to reinforce
the army of the south under Luedors.
The Gar had left Nicholoff for Elizagol,
100 miles north. Major Delafield, ior
Murdock, Capt. McClelland, American Off
GERS, had arrived in the allied camp. The
allied troops had officially reported in the
Crimea, including sick, 100000 men.
The attitude of Sweden is regarded in S..
Petersburgh with uneasiness from the Baltic
The English fleet near Nagon was preparing
to leave the gunboats al Elsinore, and is or
dered to England.
The Russian disaster at Kars is confirmed,

Grand Rapids RiVer-Late Maumee River

Grand Rapids River-Late Maumee River.
At meeting of the inhabitants of Mau-
NEE Valley, held at Toledo on the 9TH inst,
the following was adopted;
Whereas, the miles of rapids in the Mau-
NEE river, commencing few miles above
Toledo, have for years been known as the
Grand Rapids, and
Whereas, this river is often mistaken for
the Miami or Miami of Southern Ohio, and
whereas the early associations of this river,
aided by a poets wit, have given it an un-
just and unfavorable reputation, therefore,
unanimously,
Resolved, That the Maumee River, and the
Maumee Bay, be hereaEer known as Grand
Rapids River, and Grand Rapids Bay.
Also-Resolved, That these proceedings
be published in the g Blade" {" Republican,"
and Times" of Toledo, and the other pa
pers of Grand Rapids Valley are hereby re-
quested to copy the same.

WHERE THE ADMINISTRATIONS STANDs.-A
despatch from Washington to the Cleveland
Herald contains the following:
General Pierce says Governor Reeder was
elected by g mob" 1t is " fixed fact
that the entire cabinet will oppose Reeders
election and admission as the delegate from
Kansas. Jefferson Davis swears it shall new
er be done ; Guthrie and Cushing cry Amen
to that; Dobbin says little, and Marcy looks
gIum but backs it up. They, however, don't
wish to have all this known before the No
vember elections.
WINDY.-While boring for water, in
well at Delta, few days since, the work
men struck a wind vein, which sent up such
strong current of air that they were oblig-
ed to desist for few moments. A similar
vein was struck in the railroad we'll some
three weeks ago.
The Canadian government have contract
ed for semi-monthly line of steamers be-
tween Quebec and Liverpool, during the
summer, and between Portland and Liver
pool during the winter. The government is
to pay the contractor 100000 year for car
rying the mails.
PAssMoRE WILLIAMSON is released by Judge
Kane on his own statement that in his origi-
nal answer he did not intend to insult the
court, fact which Judge Kane we'll under
stood before. 1t has been very manifest
throughout the proceeding that Judge Kane
must discover some pretence on which to re-
lease him. 1t is limited that the result of the
election in Ohio and the pendency of the
New York and Massachusetts, political con-
tests had something to do with his release.
II Toledo Blade.
At the late election in this state, the vote
for 1t. Governor Myers was 1884 larger
than that cast for Governor Medill on the
same ticket.

Expenses of the Russian War.

The london Economist, IN It's tables Of
government expenditure, estimates that by
the time the second year of the war has ex-
pired, there will have been raised by way of
loans in England and France, and the sub
scriptions completed, the sum of E29, 9,OOO,-
900 by the former, and of f66,00O,OOO by
The latter, making together EOS 100000 Of
public securities absorbed within two years
or over 450, 100000 dollars This covers
only the funded debt. In England, sum
equal to her portion Of this enormous expen-
diture must be reckoned, which comes in the
shape of increased taxation imposed for the
support of the war. What the increase in
France is, we have not seen stated. With
short crops in the latter country, is it sur
prising that a money pressure should be felt
in both England and France under such
burdens?

Population OF THE CRIMEA.-A letter from
Therapla, dated the 9th ult., and published
in the Moniteur, says:
g In the present state of things some ex-
act information as to the population of the
Crimea may not be without interest to your
readers, and send you the following, which
has reached me from an authentic source
The total number of male inha bitants in the
peninsula may be divided as follows :-l56,-
600 Tartars of whom $4,000 are peasants,
farmers, or shepherds; 10000 Imauns and
Mullahs, acting at the same time as priests
or Judges; 10000 Myras or mobiles, kind of
feudel lord whose influence and privileges
have, not without great difficulty, resisted
foreign dominion; and 10000 bourgeois and
petty tradeSman residing in the towns.
9 The Christian population does not
amount TO more than $4,000 or $4,000, and
is entirely of European origin. The Rus
slams carrying on trades. who have establish
ed themselves in the Crimea since the con-
quest, are not calculated at more than 5000
Turkey and more particularly Constantine
pie, have furnished a contingent of 10000
Greeks, who established themselves for the
most part at Balaklava and Eupatoria-
5000 .Armenians, at the most, followed this
example and 5000 Poles, Germans. and
French, forming a more floating portion of
the population, complete this census
