The Kreutz Zeitung publishes, in the largest possible type, the following laconic telegraphiC official despatch from St. Petersburg, dated St: Petersburg, the Bth inst. :—" Prince Menschikoff, announces, under date of October 14, all goes well at Sebastopol." The Russian organ gives the despatch in french, and then in German, and, by the size of the type, treats it as a victory, or, at all events, as a reprieve from the overhanging sentence. No one here expects this sentence to be executed before the 21th or 25th.
