The s,roa Sid IN. which lie cans had secu-

amount Of qIiiks stores log atinn Of the
East has been reduced to bio tanned ruin by
the troops who were lad 10 escape with life fiom
It's burning walls, and The qpeRtion o1 which the
attention OF E1r0pa is nov fixed IS no longer the
fateof Sebastopol, but hop s.the Russian army to
escape from the 6nmeaS OF to maintain itself
theIel Wetrnst that no conSidelotl6ns,wh ateYsr
will prevent the allied Generals rom giving the
most vigorous aud immediate effectto the great
advantage they have Won Beyond the time ALSO
lutely required for the removal OF the wounLel,
no armistice shoula he conceded. To give the
campaignitS full effect, lis success must now be
rendered absolute andcomplete.
The Russians are people who will deny to the
last that any advantage has been gained over
them, and Prince GoElSchakoG boasts III his ac-
count syen Of this sauguInaty defeat that he was
extremely successful in carrying OF his army
Fighting, as they are, IN closed lists, without the
means ofescape, the defeated Russian army should
be compelled TO lay down It's aTmsl or to fight
general action, which would crown The series Of
our successes by a still more decisive yictpTY.-
The peninsula itself Is beseiged and well nigh in
veslel by ourShips and armies, aud il the COM
man,l of a single road be lost, the whole line Of
retreat, and the only line by which supplies and
communications can reach the Russians IS gone.
Such take TO be the elative position Of The bel
lieerents in the Grlmea, and, withthe means at
action at the disposal of the French and English
generals, we have confident hopesof glorious
result.
From the LONDON Advertiser, SEPT. II.
We must not suppose. that because we are mas
tcLs OF the south side Of Se6astopoI, our work is
Nm 4he,Tn
oft yet remains 10 be accomplished ltisinlleed
the opinion of most military men who have been
the spot, that it will be almost impossible far
the allielroops tocaptule the northetnpart Of Sc
6astopol by mems OF bombanlment. They at
firm that our only chance of taking the remainlar
of that powerful fort will be by having resourse
to an investment OF the piece, which they think,
now that we are in possession OF the southern
side, quite practicable. But this IS a matter which
may be safely left in the hands of the allied Gene
rails. They will be the best judges Of what ought
TO be dane, and there cannot be doubt that what
they deem best they will do. The blow which
Russia has received, In tile capture of portion
OF the most formidable stronghold in the southern
part OF her dominions, will be felt 10 be very
heavy one. But we must not deceive ourselves
by assuming that the fall of the southern side of
SsbaStopol will terminate the war. Russia, doubt
less, will he stunned aud talgered by the blow;
but twill mol prove fatal. She will sufficiently
recover trom its effects TO renew her warfare with
the Western Powers. For that we must be pre-
pared. She must be punished yet more severely
before she will be brought to her knees TO sue
hnmply and impioringly for peace. The allied
forces must, therefore, vigorously follow up the
advantaeest they have gained. The Gear must be
met and vanquiSlIed in other parts of his domnions
as well as in the Crmea. The latter lies, indeed,
/ q; the extremity OF his empire. The war must be
brought, in earnest nearer to the hesrt of his DO
lniniOns. II must be brought close to st. Peters
burg. 1t not TO the very palace Of that city. There
IS no reason why it should not be carried thither
before this time. Let it be so now. Better late
than never W hen the Gar hears the roar of our
cannon IN the Imperial residence in ST. Peters
burg, and sees CEons:adti in ashes, then, aud not
till then. will he fain so PROSTATE himself at the
feet of france and Great Britain, aud gladly and
gratefully accept of whatever terms OF peace they
may be pleased to propose TO him.

| RUSSIAN REPORT.
! The Russian paper, s''rhe Brussels Norl." says
the resolution OF Prince GurtSclakcf exlnbiis the
eneTgYof great commander. 1t saves Russia
from an inextlicable postum into which false
interpretation of point of honor would have
thrust her. The Russian army concentrated north
EofSevaStopo, will hencefurh haVe that unity of
action and movement which until now il has
wanted. The SevaStopol Of the South is replaced
by the oevaStopol of tie Nor:h-a formidable no
Sition, briSlling with innumerable guns, which n
compact army hencefowarl will defend. Impair
tal history will do Justice 10 Prince Gortschlku1,
who, by making momeniary sacrifice, and avoid
ing useless effIsion Of blood, has preserv ed for
Russian army Trimmed 10 war by struggle OF
years duration, aud placed that army IN position
which enables hun 10 command the position.
TIE Roman Catholic Church in Ireland, through
the voice OF her clergy, and the columns Of tile
press devoted 10 her interest, is Just Straining
every nerve TO stay the tide Of emigration to the
United States. The Tuam Herald is Instructed
to announce progressive increase in the counter
current OF home emigrnton, aud alleges that mol
week passes without witnessing the return of
some lew OF the Celtic population. TneinumbeES,
no doubt, small, bur great stress is laid on tile
influence they exeIto over the minds of their ltlemds
by the dismal accounts they are said to furnish al
the state OF social and religious lifeln tie u. S.
The writer proceeds in this strain:
"beiore many yeats eapSe, unless the tone Of
American society becomes essentially altered, Irish

Thousands Of our excited fellow couuttymen have

startling Europe from its prOpriety by the fearful
