From the war correspondence Of the London Times we
make the following extracts
heard few days ago from French officer Of artil-

THE ANTICIPATED ATTACK.

firing shot and then from the batteries OF the Mac

French the Tchernaya TO Craze, or on the horses

However improbable Nil these apprehensons about an

THE sARpIslAS CONTINGENT

ground chosen for it is slope leading from Kamara to-
wards the plain Of Balakava. The troops occupy three
sides Of square, and the fourth the highest tent is
erected where is celebrated They have an excellent
band which plays during the service The whole service
reminds very much Of the church parades of the Aus

before General Marmorairs the infantry, and then the
artillery Each parade preceded by the picturesque
looking Bersaglie at double-quck pace, nearly run,

GEN. cANRoBERT's RETURN.
The of Gen. Canrobert to France is said to be at
the express desire of the Emperor What tho real cause is
withdrawing officer from place where he had SO much
distinguished himself and where there is yet ample
for further Distinction bard to say The rumor has
been very prevalent for days that General Canrober
will be raised the dignity OF marshal of France, and
that though very great feat of arms as yet listihes
the comforting of such honor yet that General Pellsscr
will also receive it, 1t would be difficult TO name Canro
bert and pass by Pelisser without giving offence and
the latter will have thank the former for his baton The
daring galantry of General Canrobert is well known and
he of the chiefs of the army whose devotion TO the
person OF the Emperor is least doubted and believed to be
least interested, his loss would be particularly painn. The
Emperor it seems prefers having him hm--probaby
again attached to his person. at all events stationed In
France
With respect to marshals may observe that not less
than spoken of likely to figure in the
army list This however, is Incredible and doubt
whether the Emperor would lavish the honor The officers
whose mentioned are, doubt all very good in
their way but nothing has occurred TO Justify 80 large
recompense. The names mentioned are Rendon, Cries
weller, Ornane dautpoul Peisser and Canrobert Vice
Admiral Bruats elevation TO admiral being equivalent
to that of marshal
MORE Confident EXPECTATIONS.
In military circles at Vienna the opinion is decidedly
favorable to the allies in the next assault The Military
Gazette which for time has hoped and predicted in
favor of Russia, gives its voice in favor of the be-
seger 1t says "Tbe French engineers have got so
near to the east and Karabenaia Notifications that
the first Russian line of defence hardly withstand the

QUEEN vIcToRIAs FRANCE.
We copy the following from the London Examiner:
-Four hundred and twenty-five years have passed since

Of empire That sovereign Of England should visit the
sovereign of France in his capital is to for the
first time in the annals of the two nations Nor we
feel surprise that event requiring for its ulhment such
concdent circumstances should have been delayed SO
long. Before the European system king could with
perfect saety trust himself the keeping of his brother
and English policy since has unhapply oener lcagued us
with Austria against France than with France against
Austria The fault has been confined to either side
and the best that be said for the errors committed
both Isl that the people of the two countries have re-
manned always friendly TO each other The ennty has
been between the governing and not the governed races
Nor is it to be denied that the angry tone given to French
and English relations after revolution proceeded
less from the English than the French government The
Bourbon had too natural affinity to the weak and
vicious Stuart The final expulsion of the latter from
the English throne bitterly resented, and during the
century that followed 1858 George could have visited
