While the Border Ru6ans were numbering

Rals,on and others, some fairly - Atty faui-
lies fed to the Fort and clasnsd Ne protss-
ton of Gen. Smish. They were received.
But, after few days, in order to get these
families out Of the country, the Mayor OF
Leavenworth sent word to Gen. Smith that
they might return to their homes, a. there
was no danger, although the ruAisns had ia
ken possession OF many Of their dwellings
and occupied them as quarters. The result
was that Gen. Smith considered il good
excuse and ordered them all to leave by three
p. NJ. tho next day, thus driving them away
from the only place Of protection left. Some
of the subordinate officers in the Fort, TO
their everlasting honor be it said, were high
" indignant at this order, and told them
not to leave unless driven out at the point Of
the bay onet, for the Gag Of the United States
vas bound to protect them. We presume
they are nov in safety.

TIE CRIMEA.

There is nothing important from the Crmea. Cor
repoudeuce TO the lth mentions that the banks OF the
Chernava were still flooded at that date The Rus
slams had made appearance on the nights OF tr-
kousta and showed some manifestations of an inten
tion to attack the French positions in the Baidar val
lev with the view Of restricting the ground covered by
the allied ouposs which afford fuel for the army
and food for the cattle As the French have retired in
preseLce of Winter the Russians have thrown forward
their advanced posts at Koluluz aud Marku 10 the
northeast, and from Aitodar and Ozembass to the
north Of Badar. The Russians continue to fire stead
iv from the north side of Sevastopol, but English
rcspondeuce says little damage IS done. The Allies
have ceas,d to return the fire. The roads so bad
that the conveyance Of putting materials to the front
is suspended and if not resumed everathousand men
must pass the Winter under canvas. All the British
cavalry have arrived from the CriInea at Scutan
and lsmed.
Latest dates from Constannope (l4thl say that re-
cent storms in the Black Sea had caused considerable
damage TO the shipping. Active hostities had ceased
IN the Crimea. At Odessa, ChersOn and Prrekop
from IS to 90 degrees of cold had been experienced
Communication with Sympheropol was interrupted
by snow.

EUROPEAN CONGRESS.

The idea of calling together European Congress,
to settle not only the present Eastern difficulty but
al the complications in European relations that have
" arisen since the Congress of Vienna'-in other
words to readjust the Balance of Power-is reported
10 be the pet idea of the Emperor Napoleon and to be
exceedingly distasteful to England. Napoleon s said
TO have actually commits oned NJ. de Seebach, the
Minister of Saxony, who has gone to St Petersburg
az bearer Of the views of the smaller German States
10 bring the suggestion under the immediate consider
alton Of the Emperor Alexander. How utterly dis
pleasing this proposal is to the English Government
may be inferred from the language of The LOn8o1
Times, which says: Rather than submit our quarrel
TO Congress in which Russia would be Omnpoteut
"by the votes of her vassas and mercenaies let the
" sword decide between us We did not draw ii
without counting the cost, and we ought not 10
hheathe il without some better guaranty than can
be afforded by the wisdom fairness of Congress
of European sOvereignsw 1t is needless to say that
the influence Of France more than Of Russia isfeared
in Congress.
In connection with this alleged idea Of Napoleon :
is the publication in Paris of a pamphlet entitled
" Necessa6 dun Congres pour p0csfer FEurope."
by an homme TEtat. This pamphlet has made sensa-
ton. Pains taken to promulgate that the writer
Il AM Dureyier but the general impression Is that the
