WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON CITY: The Fall of South Sebastopol —We- see no Treason to doubt the correctness of the news by the Washington of the fall of the south side of Sebastopol, insomuch as while it appeared not at all likely that the Allies could carry its defences, it was never pre- tended that they, or any other defences as- sailable by land; can be impregnable. brief particulars that reached us yesterday by telegraph before the Star went to press, were clear, straight-forward and reasonable, and despite our propensity to discredit English first accounts of English exploits in this Russian war, we saw no reason to doubt the main fact that the Allies had gained possession of the smouldering ruins of the south side of the late city of Sebastotopol. to remark that when the Russians took pos- sesion of the Crimes, they at once sppre- ciated the value of this harbor—-the finest in the Black sea; and a few years after, it rose to be a place of great importance. In 1797 it was resolved to make it’ an imperial harbor; in 1821 was declared free for ships of all nations, arriving from healthy ports. The city was built amphitheatrically, on an eminence, with broad straight streets. The view, asone approached it on the land side, was The houses were all of stone ; and the public buildings—admiralty, arsenal, barracks, hospital, lazaretto, &c., including docks and dock yards—were on the most exten- sive scale, neither labor nor expense being spared to render it the great naval station of the Black Sea fleet. The bay runs nearly five miles into the land; is from six hundred to eight hundred fathoms broad, and from ten to twelve fathoms deep. It is perfectly protected from all winds, and It divides into several branches, or smaller bays, as Quarantine bay, Artillery bay, Ship bay, (which is the finest and largest,) and some others. Dr. Kohl says that ‘‘ the most and best of the fortifications have been erected by the Emperor Nicholas.”’ The material is a white calcareous stone, ob- tained in the neighborhood; it resembles the shell limestone of which Odessa is built, and is so soft that the walls would have little to fear from enemies’ balls, which would bury in them as in sand; but the stone is very per- ighable—the houses decrepitate as at Odessa. Dr. Kobi, who visited Sebastopol in 1338, says that “there are 10,000 resident inhabit- ants, besides the troops employed upon the fortifications, (of whom nearly 30,000 are now encamped about the town,) and the crews of the numerous men-of-war in the harbor. The population is purely Rursian, with a smal! mixture of Greeks.” Every reader of the Star is familiar with ita tragic history of the past twelve months, to which we therefore need not allude here. The excitement to learn the details of the last bombardment and assault and with ref- erence to subsequent operations and last known position of the contending forces among the military and naval men and diplomatists in Washington, is truly intense. We find none of the latter who appear to read in the fall of the south side of the city hope of a speedy end of the war. It seems, on the contrary, to strike them as an assurance for its very long duration, as Russia’s means are as intact as the pride of her chief antagonist—France. The nominal fall of the city starts one inter- esting problem at least: Who hereafter is to be the great man of France? Pelliasier, the hero of this great war, or his master, Louis Napoleor, whose official, if not personal existence dc- pends almost wholly on continuing to be the most popular man in France ? {p Apverrisements should be handed in by 12 o'clock, M., otherwise they may not ap- pear until the next day. SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Union quotes passages in recent letters from Senators Cass, Slidell, and Thompeon, of N. J., and ex-Vice President Dallas, wherein those distinguished public men express fears that Abolitionism is making rapid progress towards a dissolation of the Union—and ar- gues with much foree to show that these gen- tlemen have really fair grounds for coming to such & conclusion. The Intelligencer presents its readers with the following interesting summary of the for- Of it, we have “The Ruesian city of Sebastopol, after a conflict much more sanguinay had rignalized the progress the Crimea, was onthe 8th instant co: by the Anglo-French armies, after ha: er- dured a renewed and most destructive - bardment of three days’ duration. i. “ We yet have but partial accounts of the fal encounter.

Syracuse and Auburn are the points in New York, and Worcester, in Massachusetts, where they congregate. The Know Some- things, Seward Know Nothings, and one or two other semi-distinct political organizations, including the *‘ Republicans,’’ were in session as well as the Whigs, in Syracuse; many indi- viduals being regularly elected delegates to all the ismatic assemblages at the same time! Thisis progress, with a vengeance! Tho Know Nothings proper held their State Convention at Auburn, and on this occasion seem fairly to, be rid of the bedevilment of the Know Somethings, who, up to this time, having a secret organization within the secret organiza- of Know Nothingism, fairly foiled the latter in nearly all their undertakings in New York. It will be recollected that we have repeated- ly remarked that the tendency of political af- fairs was towards a breach between the Re- publieans and Know Nothings, which would end in a support of the Democratic candidate for the Presidency by the Northern supporters of the Philadelphia Know Nothing platform, however few they may be. At the Convention in Auburn, to which we refer above, unmis- takable manifestations of the truth of this im- pression of ours oceyrred. Many of its lead- ers, in their speeches, gloried over the defeat of Morrili for Governor of Maine, though last year he was the candidate nominated by their own immediate party, and also over the suc- cess of the Democrats (eo-nomine,) in this Maine eleetion.

Y. Jour. of Com, tainly have no disp: and had their being in it, apparently, up to the day of the recent Maine election. Now, however, they drop it, as being decidedly a too hot potato to be held, even in their frigid fingers. Really, the hollowness of political professions were never better illustrated than by their sudden change of front on this partic- ular issue—none being now found so poor (in cunning) as to do the Maine law reverence! The so-called Whig convention at Syacuse was not a Whig convention in reality ; that is, it was not participated in by the portion of the Whigs of New York who stand with ex-Gov. Hunt in favor of adhering to a separate and distinct organization. It was discovered a short time since that the Seward Whig portion of the new Republican organization has usurp- ed the entire control of the affair, and designed to sell it wholly to strengthen the “Republi- can’’ movement. This induced the real Whigs to wash their hands of it. The fact that most of its nominees are out and out Democratic Abolitionists or Freesoilers, will make it plain to the comprehension of all that the Hunt Whigs have nothing to do with it, and do not entertain the least idea of being bound by, its action. The use of the power of the Whig party, therefore, by this wing of the Republi- can party isa mere ‘‘dodge,”’ so transparent as to render it certain that the ticket of the isms then and there nominated, will not receive the vote of a thousand Whigs who had not pro- viously joined the ‘‘ Republican” organization. Quite a Fluttsr.—It is surprising how the presence of a single well-known politician will affect the political world wherever he may go. This fact has been capitally illustrated in Washington by the re-appearance on our po- litical ’change of Col. Edward Lynch, of Brook- lyn, the active and efficient Democrat to whose exertions, in the main, it is insisted by many of that leader’s friends, the administration owe their present position. Though, as a matter of course, the Colonel’s present visit is set down to account of some of his immediate political friends at home, who aspire to office (for he is said to be a gentleman who never deserts a friend) not » few knowing ones around us seem to be of opinion that he has been sent for to ascertain whether, in the case of the positive refusal of Judge Mason, of Iows, to re-assume the Commissionership of the Patent Office, he will not accept the office; the Colonel being as distinguished for his eminence as a mechanic, as for his success in shaping the results of elections. In person he certainly bears a marked resemblance to the great Napoleon, which may not add a little to the flutter of excitement in which his presence is so apt to throw the politicians of Washington when he unexpectedly drops down among them, as on this occasion. The Convictior.—The conviction of Hertz before the United States District Court for the the Eastern District of Pennsylvania is the first ever achieved under the neutrality laws of the United States. It reflects great credit not enly upon the District Attorney who man- aged it on the Government’s behalf, but on the unflinching determination of the Govern- ment itself to defend and maintain the integ- rity of the statates in question, which, of late, have been of so much importance to the peace and good faith of the United States. Had the New Orleans trials, under the samo laws, taken place in the midst of a community, like that of Philadelphia, disposed to stand by them in good faith, their result would doubtless have been different. It has, however, at length been demonstrated that the Government has the power, as well as the will, to force respect on the part of all for the neutrality laws of the United States, which, we trust, will tend greatly to check efforts for their future viola- tion. Tho Ontonagon Band of Chippewa Indians. We understand that the quantity of four sec- tions of land, in a compact body, have been selected for the reservation to the Ontonagon Indians, under the first article of the Chippe- wa treaty of July 30, 1854. The lands are situated on the shore cf Lake Superior, in township fifty-three, range thirty-eight west, some ten miles northeast of the mouth of the Ontonagon river, and will, doubtless, prove a pleasant permanet home for those Indians.

Ai Portsmouth, who has had a long and severe attack of the fever, has recovered, and yester- day arrived in Baltimore. ‘Gosport’ of the Petersburg Express (which paper, by the way, came to hand yesterday, after failing for upwards of a fortnight) writes from Portsmouth, as follows : “We to see d ‘ht.

Mr. Ethan Allen, the master blacksmith, has entirely recovered from his severe attack of fever. On Wednesday there were five deaths, and nine on Thursday, principally children. Dr. Rizer, of reese and Ai Holli- day, esq., are much improved. But few new cases have occurred for several days past. Agentleman from Mathews county, on Tues- day, informs us that the report of the death of Philip G. Thomas iz incorrect; that he was well, but very low-spirited in consequence of his severe affliction. The weather had become so cool that the clothing store of Robert Porter was opened, to supply the demand for ready-made winter Spparel. One hour after opening, it was thronged with doctors and nurses, shiv with cold, who eagerly searched the well- stocked room, for the thickest and warmest. Not expecting cold weather, they had brought but little clot! with them. FURTHER FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE BY THE WASHINGTON. FALL OF SEBASTOPOL::! in our papor of yesterday afterncon, we pub- lished a telegraphio dispatch announcing “ the fall of Sebastopol.’’ The account, abbre- viated, was unsatisfactory as to particulars; there being a feverish anxiety in the commu. nity to learn the important details. The steamer Washington, from Bremen, via Southampton, which arrived at New York yes- terday, brought three days’ later advices from Europe, announcing the fall of Sebestopol, which took place on the Sth instant, In a4- dition to our last dispatch, the following will prove of interest to our readers : PLAN OF THE BATTLE. The plan of the battle appears to haye been as follows: The place was attacked in four directions. The British troops attempted the storming of the Redan; the French attacked the Malakoff; the extreme right of the French made a diversion on the little Redan, and a united attack of the English, French, and Sardinians was made on the central battery. All the attacks were made simultaneo: z with great spirit and energy; but one whic was eminently successful was led by General Bosquet and <ieneral McMahon on the Mala- koff. Both the Redan and Central bastion were at times in the hands of the storming par- ties. So accurately did the guns of the Rus- sians coyer these that as soon as the English had gained ion of them it was found im- possible to hold them. CAPTURE OF THE MALAKOFF. ing Paris Moniteur has the following dis- atch ; i The assault was made at noon on the Sth, when its redoubts and those of the Redan of Careening Bay were carried by storm, amidst shouts of Vive Le Empereur. We immedi- ately occupied ourselves in lodging there, and succeeded in doing so at the Malakoff; but the Redan of Careening Bay was not tenable, owing to the heavy fire of artillery which ured in upon the first occupiers of that work. in _beholding our eagles floating on the Mala- koff, Gen. De Sallas ‘made two attacks on the central bastion, both of which, however, were pine a our loss in tae meantime being eavy. Pave, Tuesday.—The Minister of Marine fF ceived the following despatch from Vice Ad- mairal Bruat : Criuga, Sept, 9th.—The assault on the Mal- akoff tower was made yesterday noon, and la- ter on the great Redan and Central Bastion. A gale from the north kept the — at anchor; ant the mortar boats, to be enabled to fire, were obliged to enter Streletska Bay. They fired six hundred shells againstthe Quarantine Bastion and Fort Stready. Six English mor- tay boats also anchored in Streletska Bay and fired about the same number of shells. “Last night violent explosions and vast con- 4 ions made ‘us suppose that the Russians were eyacuating the town. To-day we awer- tained thatthe Russian vessels had been sunk. The bridge, too, was coyered with troops re- treating to the north side, and after eight o’clock the bridge was destroyed.
