The St. Louis has arrived. She left Liv,
erpool on the 9Th.
The bombardment Mt Sebastopol recon.
menced on the 9th. On the day the steamer
sailed despatch was received from Lord
Raglan, dated June 9Th, 6 p. NJ, which states
that after fierce bombdrdment the French
attacked and carried the Manelon and White
towers. The greatest gallantry was exhib.
tied on both sides. The loss of both the
French and Russians WIS very great.
The buoyant feeling in the Cotton market
at the departure of the st. Louis (snppose i,
should be the Asi.) subsequently gave way
and prices underwent II partial decline, which
afterwards recovered, and the market closed
at about the previous quotations. The bust
ness of the week amounted to 1900 bales
mostly on speculation.
The Conference ut Vienna, having finally
closed ut the instigatiOn of The Western
Powers, negotiations will not likely be re-
newed unless Russia applies to Austria fo
her good offices.
The Russian correspondence say thatAus
tria considers herself released from all en-
gngenlents to the Western Powcrs-the lat
ter having refused to accept peace on reason
able terms. Austria, however, still profess
es herself the ally of France and England
subject to the articles of the treaty OF De
: cember End. The Vienna papers are advise,
that although the Conferences have close,
the Plenipotentitries have the Austrian pro
positions under consideration and Austri
still desires to effect mediation. In tn
: meantime the Military Commissioners q
France and England have left Vienna.
The Government dispatches in regard
the affair before Scbastopol show great ga
lantry ON the part Of the French.
The Russian plan was to unite all the an
buscades by line of gabions connected b
