The main features of the news are as follows !:
report, which isprobably premature, has been
circulated that General Canrobert the special rep
resentatiye of the Allies to Sweden, has concluded
a treaty with Sweden, binding that Power to join
the Western alliance in the spring, by operations
by land and sea- The Allies, on the other part, to
undertake to restore Finland to Sweden.
It was also reported that Denmark would fol-
low the course of Sweden and Norway. The
London Morning Post, however, discredits the
story.
Rumor also gives a circumstantial account Of
the Prussian Envoy having seen the Gear at Nj
colaief and obtained from him an assent for Prus-
sia to inform the Western Powers that he is
willing to treat for peace. This is also doubtful.
FROM THE SEAT OF WAR.
Accounts from the Crimea represent both the
Russians and the Allies prepared for the winter
and under cover The Allies were still apprehend-
ing an attack from the Russians. 1t was reported
that bombardment of the north side of SebastO-
pol was in contemplation, for the purpose Of en-
abling the allied fleets to winter in the harbor.
Marionpol, town situated on the north coast of
the sea Of Azoff was bombarded BY the Allies on
the 30th Of October and set on fire, when an Aus
TRAN merchant hoisted the Austrian flag over his
warehouse, when the firing ceased.

Allies had concluded treaty with Sweden, by
which that power has to enter actively into the
Western Alliance by land and sea, in consideration
ancient possession Of Finland. Also, that Den
mark had given in her adhesion to the cause of the
Allies.
The rumored disposition of Russia to make ad-
vances towards peace are also conceded Unbound
ed. 1t was confidently reported however, that
the Russian Envoy at st. Peterborough had visited
the Gar at Nicolaief, with the view Of inducing
him to recognise certain conditions as basis for
peace negotiations and that the Gar listened ia
he VA LoI
the Cars views to the Western Powers, who de-
clared itinsufficent; but Russia and Prussia are
still proceeding, and the Court at Berlin is making
the greatest efforts to induce the Gar to insert the
terms OF peace. The continuation of these nego-
tiations offered some hope Of there being chances
for peace.
