A FRENCH STRATAG EM.-At the attack of
the Mamelon, on the 18th, the signal given
was six rockets from the Victoria Redoubt.
Under the impression that the besieged would
probably for the future keep good out for
demonstrations of this nature, the French, not
many days since, made the same signal, and
accompanied it with the roll of drums in the
trenches towards the front, and words of
command given in n loud tone. The result
justified their anticipations, as the Russian
bugles sounded the assembly, and their
troops were seen crowding into the Malakoff,
ready to repel the supposed premeditated at
tack. Immediately the guns and mortars
bearing on the threatened point, poured forth
their iron hail. Grape, canister, and shells
fell among the besieged ''fast and furious"
and only ceased when the fire from the enemy
showed that the panic had passed away. On
the whole, this ruse de guerre was satisfacto-
ry in the extreme to all concerned, except the
sufferers.

had graspcd it and fired two shots, one of
which entered his skull over the eye, and
he died Immediately. A melancholy instance

"The blockade which the Allied squadron
have established in the Baltic and the Gulf of
Bothnia is so complete this year that the trade
which was carried on in 1854 between Russia

danger of any scarcity of food. The official
returns show that l3,S25,72O acres of public
lands have been sold during the fiscal year
ending the Both of June This is equivalent
to one hundred and thirty-eight thousand
two hundred and fifty seven farms of hun.
dred acres each. In addition to this, more
than hundred and fifty thousand farms of
l6O, 100, and 80 acres have been applied for
on bounty land warrants, besides numerous

line, and passing through the cars, they in
suited number Of ladies' therein. They
subsequently went into tavern III the vicini-

could whip any American in the country. A
Philadelphian who was present, denied the
assertion, when a regular melee ensued, dur.
ing which the decanters, iron bars, knives,
&c, were used. About one hundred Ameri-
cans were soon on the ground, and the Irish.
men were put to flight not, however, before
they had been severely handled. The Phila-
delphan was arrested aud placed in Jail at

case became known.

WHAT THE RUSSIANS SAY-The official
organ at St Petersburg expresses the opinion
that the allies by their inactivity and want of
enterprise have allowed the opportunity TO
slip by when SebastoPol might have been
taken. 1t now says the city is impregnab!e;
that II can replace one hundred dismounted
guns in night, OF can exchange 10000
iatigued troops against 10000 fresh troops;
that the allies cannot, with double .he force
they can dispose of, cut off the communica.
ton by Perekop that the Russian army,
fighting for lis country and its sovereign, is
animated by better spirit than is the hete-
rogeneous mass Of French, English, Turks,
Egyptians and Sardinians, contendng for an
abstract idea and a confused Interpretation of
the duties of civilization. There is some
force in these remarks, and the allies them
selves appear to be impressed with the same
Idea, for the preparation OF defences they are
making at Kamlesch look very like protec-
ton in the event of being compelled to re-
embark.
