There was a report in town last evening that the
ship Republic Ance for Bremen, had put back with
decks swept an several lives lost. Our ship news
collector made no smeturn of such disaster, and we
therefore conclude 1T WIGS false. The Republic left
this port on the 1. VII inst. 1twould be difficult to
imagine the return to portof an eastern bound ship
in face of the gale yesterday.

We publish this morning a translation Of the re

on the events Of the sth Of September, when til
French forces, carried the Maakof by assault, and
when consequently, the southern side Of Sebastopol
was evacuated by the Russians and fell into the hands
of the allies. The Princes account of the proceed

Jfalakof was due solely to the immense nu-
merical force of the attacking party, which

says, into his views, and when he took into consi
