The annual festival and gymnastic jubilee of the Ger- “man Turnerbund commenced yesterday, witb a torch- light procession, on the arrival of the Southern and Northern delegates. They partook of a collation at ‘Sansom Street Hall, where a song of welcome was sung, | and the strangers were greeted by Edward Henfein, on ‘behalf of the Philadelphians.

On Wednesday night last, Michael Burke, one of th» night watch on the Great Western Canada Railway, was ‘Tun over near Capetown and killed. On Thursday, 8 barn belonging to James Gilheeny, in the townsliip of Tecumseh, OC. W., was struck with light- ning, killing Mr. Gilbeeny and his brother, who were found outside the barn completely calcined. Markets. : Provipence, September 3, 1854. The cotton market has been quiet and heavy. Woo! has been inactive, with less demand at the samo prices than for two weeks past. The sales were 70,700 Ibs. The market was dull for printing cloths: The sales amount- ed to 12,200 pieces. Dramatic and Musical Matters. The chief dramatic event of the past week was “the euccess of “Camille” at the Broadway theatre; seaid success being mainly owing to the refined and sartiatic acting of Miss J. M. Davenport in the princi- ~ ‘pal part. Since the first night, Mr. Conway has sub- _ dued his style of acting Armand, and the improve- * ment isa judicious ore. As the piece is announced oto be played all this week, we will suggest to the persons playing the principal parts the propriety of speaking colloquial dialogue so that it can be heard allover the house. It they were not a0 fearful of the foot-lights some of the scenes would be much more effective, and people on the back seats would be somewhat enlightened. The costuming of the piece calls for improvement throughout. Misa Daven- Port's first and fourth dresses are in good taste; but with this single exception, no person on the stage was dreased properly. The ladies and gentlemen of the section of Paris society which this piece portrays, delight in tasteful adora- ment, and luxuriate in well fitting garments, made up in that piquant style which itis the delight of Broadway tailors, milliners and mantua-makera to imitate; and they do ita long way off. “QOamille”’ has made quite an excitement in theatrical circles, ‘and bas made money for the manager and the star, and we trust that other artists will profit by Miss Davenport's example, and give us new pieces. The ‘New York public will not patronize anything less than divine merit, when it appears in worn out plays like “‘The Lady of Lyons,” “The Hunch- back,” and so forth. Miss Davenport has another Piece, new to the New York boards—a tragedy ‘from the French, ealled “Valeria.” It has been played in Boston, but we are not able to state that it will be acted during her present engagement——Mr. E. L. Davenport, it is stated, sailed from Liverpool on the 26th of Augast. He wil’ appear at the Broadway theatre immediately after bis arrival in his native country. He has been ubgent seven years, and it is believed that he will return tous # polished, finished and refined artist. ‘He will open as lo.——Nothing new has been doze at the Bor the National. Mr. John R. Beott continues to pléase the patrons of the last amed establishment.—Mr. Burton closed his wummer ergagement at Niblo’s last Thursday even. ug. The house was crowded in every part.’ Mr. Burton opens the Chambers street theatre this even- ing——The lecture room of Stuyvesant Institute ‘was opened on Monday last by Sauford’s colored opera troupe. The company is an excelleat one, ‘and will probably do a fine busineas——The Back- Jey minstrels have revived their clever burlesque on the ‘“Sonnambula,” and their hall was very fuil every night this week——Tae New York Dramatic Society, a popular association of amateurs, announce that their first performance for the season will take place at the Brooklyn Museum on Tuegday evening, 14th. Several popular actcra have graduated from this institution, whi -h is well goverred ard well managed——Donza Valeiz Go mez, late primo soprano at Castle Gardes, writes to the Heraup to say that her connection with Mr. Maretz:k has been dissolved, and that she will make @ grand musical tour throngh the United States, commencing with a concertin New York. Donna Gomez is an artist of considerable ability——Wood» the popular manager of the band of miastrels beariag his name,bas been doing very well with Christy’s band at the hall 472 Broadway. The usual performances at the hall No. 444 Broadway, will be given every even- yog.——A large number of favorite actors, including Mr. Charles Fisher, Mr. George Jordan, Mr. Vincent, Mias Kate Saxon and Mrs. Backland have returned to town from pleasant summer excursions, and seem strengthened for their winter's work.—-The maoagers of the New York theatre have made several addi- tions to their previously ful'and able stock company, and they state that the theatre will certainly open two weeks from to-night——Mr. Wallack’s company is called together today. The theatre will open in, mediately: The giand opera at Castle Garden this evening will probably attract the largest audience that ever aseemb!ed withia the wails of an American theatre. The programme is eapecia'ly attractive. Mr. Hackett Garden, because that place is most frequently men- tioned in the papera. The Battery enlargement is about to claim a front stand in the ratke—sawdust, dieguized Joe Millerismz, horses with cultivated instincts, and ride:s with cultivated heela, on Mon- day week dispute the palm with their pretentious next door neighbor. The people look forward with about as much avidity for the circus as upper tea- dom for ‘‘Lucrezia Borgia.’ The people talk about t' ecircus, while the papers talk about the opera. Indeed, there are unmistakabie symptoms th gloves and lorgnettes even wili hoaor the sports of the circle with their presence--our aristucracy are so blazé of routs, and parties, and the dissipations of the watering places, that a good joke, a gallant feat, and a graceful posé, are about the only things that will be likely to excite a seasa- tion; especially under a tent, where it will not be mauvais gout to yield to a sensation. The managers of the two circuses which are about to occupy the Battery, are duly mindful of the com- fort and feelings of their patrons, An entrance will be constructed separate from Castle Garden, so that they will not be jostled by the visiters to the opera. A high wooden enclosure will be placed around the marquée, to keep ou! the noise of the opera during Kerdall’s solo on that magic bugle. There is certainly something attractive in the idea of a summer circus, with its canvas tent and temp: rary accommodations, Its vicingge to the,water, with only a curtain to be raised to look down the bay, is the perfection of promises us “ Lucrezia Borgia’ wita Grisi, Mario, Susini and other artists in the rile, and it is alsoan- nounced that the choruses, orchestra, stage appoint- ments, &c., will be perfect. Seats are selling for from $10 dollars to $4. Promenaders at one dollar per head will be admitted at a quarter past seven o'clock ‘At the Broadway theatre this evening, “Oa mille ” will be played for the seventh time. As this piece is the property of Mss Davenport, all persons ‘who desire to witness it must go during this week, as her engagement closes next Saturday night. Barton’s theatre opens for the regular season this evening. The company includes the favorites -of last senson—Fisher, Jordan, Johnston, Russell, Misa Raymond, Mrs. Burton, Mrs. Hughes, and others are engaged. Among the new engagements ‘we notice the names of Miss Kate Saxon, Miss Annie Lee, Mr. Marchant, Mr. A. Andrews, and Mr. Stod: dard. A new parquette has been constructed, and the interior of the house is much improved. The prices remain the same as last season. The pieces for this evening are the “ Serious Family” aad “ Asmodeus.” It is announced that Miss Saxon will appear to-morrow night as Nan, in Buskstone’s farce “ That Good For Nothing.” At Niblo’s theatre, this evening, thf Ravel family and Mile. Mathias will appear in “ Mazalm ” and « Kim-ka.” Attbe Bowery theatre, this evening, Mrs. T. S. Hamblin appears as Sacdanapalas in Byron's tragedy of that name. It is announged that the piece will be produced in the best manner. Daring the engagement of Mrs. Hamblin, seats in the firet tier will be sold at fifty cents each, Mr, Charles ventilization, The pomp and circumstance of two companies, with near two hundred horses and about as many men,are in keeping with the times. Hluadreds of the occupants of our up-town palaces, who would not like to be seen at a circus in the Bowery in winter, will make a spree of @ visit to this concern. One night at the opera at five dol- lars, and the next at the circus at twenty-five cents, will tickle many a fancy. Upon the whole it will bea rivalry between dashing carriages and liveried drivers depositing their precious loads at the opera, and the omnibuses, conveying from all parts of the city to the foot of Broadway, freighted for the,circus, although we shall expect ta see many a stylish tura out at the porte cocherepf the horse opera, PHILADELPHIA—Mr. Farren and Miss Howard have been playing at the Walnut street theatre: The Arch is doing well with the stock company. The wife of Mr. Wheatley is dead. Bostox.—The National theatre was opened last Monday evening with Mis. Woodward as Elvira. The new Boston theatre is announced to open on the 11th inst., and the meeting of the company is called for next Thursday. The award for the prize address has been made. There were seventy com- petitors. The same of the fortunate winner of the one hundred dollar note ard the laurel wreath is as yet a profound secret. ° Forzign Taeatricats—One of the English papers says:— Mr. W. Vincent Wallace, the composer of “ Marl: tana,” &>., &c., has just arrived in this country from New York. In the United States Mr. Wallace has become one of the most favorite composers. The great house of William Hall & Son, cf New York, are his publishers for the United States; and we understand that he has entered into a contrast with the firm of Robert Cocks & Co., of New Bur lington street, topublish all hia future pianoforte compositions for Great Britain and ite dependen:ies. Clara Novello (who is engaged to perform at New York this autumn) will be the principal female vocalist_at the Worcester Musical Festival, which comes off on the first week of September. There also are engaged Mme. Castellan, Miss Dolby, Mme. Viardct, Mrs. Weiss, Mr. Sims Reeves, Mr. Lockey, Signor Gardoni, Herr Formes, and Mr. Weiss. In Worcester cathedral will be perf»rmed the whole of “The Messiah,” “Elijah,” “The Creation,” and ‘The Last Judgment.” In the evening concerts, portions of Weber’s “Oberon,” Mendelsshon’s “Midsummer Night’s Dream,” and the beautiful fragment,‘*Lore- ly,” will be given. A new opera, written for Marie Cabel, by Adolphe Adam, is in rehearsal atthe Theatre Lyrique. The Grand Opera, as well asthe Theatre Fran- caise, re-opened on last Wednesday. At both places the performances were free to the public. Wednesday, August I5, being the anniversary of the great Napoleon's birth, “Robert le Diable” was plsyed at the Grand Opera, and also a cantanta by Queen Hortense, (Louis Napoleon's mother,) to which M. Belmontel bas written words, Spehr’s new oratorio, called “Die Letzic Dinge,” has been brought out at Berne, with immense suc- cess. An actress named Mrs. Seymour has taken St. James’ theatre for the performance of English plays. On dit, that Miss Glynn, Mr. Wright and Mr. Mead are already engaged, and t) Tom Taylor and C. - Reade are writing a five act play for her. Whitworth, the English baritone, who has been a considerable time at the Grand Opera at Riode Janeiro, has returned to England, in excellent voice, and with a full purse. Madame Delagrange is singing at present at Frankfort-on-the-Maine, where her success is said to be very g eat. Ma: Ile. Ractel will make her rentrée at the Fran- ciis on the 15th inst., in the gratuitous representa. tion given in honor of the imperial féte. Anew opera is xbout to be brought out at La excellence; and the bassi ba, “toni had a host in Ron- coni—to say nothing of Fo..“ti, who might be thrown irto the scale without ma.“erally setomieg the balance. There was no lack or asi pri , with such an array as Tagliafico, Pox ial, Ze Susini, and the great Lablache, who mac‘@ bis firs spyearance at the Royal Itelian, in his fuvo “ite racter of Dr. Bartolo, on the 9th of May. 1, Us we bave seen the programme verified to the lette.+ 80 far as the artistes are concerned; the production °f operatic novelties bas not, however, been so satisfactorily carried out. The following list was put forth, witn a promise that of the number three would positively be produced:—Spon- tict’s “ Vestale,”” Auber’s “Domino N ir,” Donizetti’s “Don Sebastian,” Roasini’s “Matilda di Shabran,” Donizetti's ‘Don Pasquale,” and Weber's “Oberon.” Of these “Matilda di Shabran” and “Don Pasquale” have been brought out; the latter opera, with which the subscribers were surfeited at her Majesty’s the- atre, acarcely deserving to be called a novelty. It is, however, due to the magagement to add thit the “Conte Ory,” which was promised in 1852, was pro- duced this season, though not in the programme. I've following were the remarkable events of the sea- *on:—Tbe produc‘ion on the 18th of April ot ‘‘Ma- tilda di Shabran,”’ one of the most trifling and un iutellibibie of Rossini’s carnival operas. The irs’ appearance at this theatre of Mile. Sophie Cruvelli, on the 27th of April, in the cuaracter of Desdemo- 1a, nthe opera of “Otello.” Tuesday, the 9th of May, was signalized by the performance of “II Bar: bi in waic? Mario made his rentrée a3 the Conat cof Almaviva, and Lablache appeared, for the first time on these boards, in his popular character of Dector Bartolo. Thursday, the Ist of June, was selected for the reap; ca of Madame Grisi. in her celebrated role of Norma, being the first of a se- ries of farewell performances which this distia- gui-hed artiste was to give previous to her depar- ture for the Unitea States, and her retirement from the lyric stage. On the 8th of June Maiame Viar- dot, after an absence of four years, appea'ei in her original character of Fides, in the “Prophete;” and, finally, on last Monday, the 7th of August, Madame Griai appeared for ‘he jast time before an English aucien-e, (as already noticed,) in her favorite characters »{ Norma and Valentine. The Times says of the last operatic novelty: “Le Compte Ory’’ is aa genuine “opera buffs,” and exhibits all the buoyancy, exhilaration, and atimal spirits we find in the best common works of Roséini. The music is extremely fal aud ele- gent, sparkling and melodious, and betrays thefhand of the master in every bar. In few of his comic Fenice, in Venice, by Maestro Canciclatro. Lt is to bear the title of “Gastone de Chanley.” The good citizens of Berlin are under a process of astonishment and admiration at the extraordiaary and at the same time pleasicg performance of Cooke's performing elephants, whose feats created such a sensation in London. Crowds at each repre- sentation flock to behold these astonishing quadru- pedes. The “Royal Opera,” Drury Lane, re opened when Covent Garden closed. The Princess’ theatre had closed. The “Propbet” bad been done at the Sur- rey. The Haymarket was the only theatre open at the fashionable end of Londoa. Nothing new there. Sims Reeves had appeared in English opera at the Lyceum. Dickens’ novel,“ Hard Times,’ has besa Grematized, and produced at the Strand. Mr. Daven- port and Miss Vining had been playing at Manches- ter. The Covent Garden opera season was brought to a close on the 12th August. The Sunday Times £oy8:— Mr. Gye, if he has not tended, bas done quite , dence and support of bis su! bers.

He has new ideas always at command, and his instrumentation is highly 5 nious ano fanciful. “Le Comte Ory” is entitled to consideration, 'as being the last opera but one of one of the greatest masters of dramatic music. It was written the year Ena to “Guiliaume Tell,” and was the first work Rossini composed wholly and entirely for the Grand Opera of Paris, ‘“Mosé in Egitto” had some years before undergone considerabie alterations, cok had received large additions to render it fitting for the Academy, and ‘“‘Maometto Secondo,” by a similar process, bad been transmuted into “Le Siege de Corinth;” bat “Le cone Ory” was conceived, ori- ginated, and perfected in Paris. Notwithstandiag its many great beauties, the cpera bas never become popular. The story is un- doubtedly the cause. Never was ® more ungracious eubject wedded to music. The plot consists of little more than the silly tricks of a very silly count, who endeavors to gate acceas to a highly unmeaning Countess, and obtains nothing when he succeeds. The story, indeed, is a downright farce, sinking the fon; but the librettist bas suvplied the musician with some good situations, ard of these Rossini has made the best use. We know few morceau in ope- ratic music more effective and irresistible than the ¢rinking chorus, ‘‘Beviam, beviam, di cor,” in the second act; or more exquisitely charmiag than the trio which takes place in the dark, in the same scene, ‘Di treta, e di speravza,” ‘ae sung by Mesdames Berio and Marai, and Signor Luchesi. La- deed, the whole of the second act is a chefd'cuvre entirely worthy of the renowned composer. Taere are grand things in the first act, too, which we cannot stay to designate. The finale is magnificent, and is worked out with consummate skill.

Mrs. Lewis was an actrees of more than ordiuary ability. She was born in England, and came to Americain 1835, wen she played a star engagement at the. Park thratre, and since that time has acted in all parts of the United States. She leaves two daugh- tersandason. Her daughters are both actresses. Mrs. Lewis acted in a nowerful, vigorous style, and in heavy melo-dramnatic parts she had few superiors. An actrees of some celebrity on the Boulevards, Mademoise!le Helen Gaussen, died lately on the passage from Havie to San Francisco. Accord: ing to common report she hada monomania for misappropriating plate and jewelry. This propen- sity, however, never got her into serious trouble; but she was addicted to politics of a reddish hue, acd by ove of the arbitrary decrees after the coup d’ctat was sentenced to transportation. After a lengthened imprisonment this sentence was com: muted into a permission to emigrate to Califoraia in one of the boats sent out by the proceeds of tho Lingot d’or lottery. Amongst the celebrities of the theatrical world forme torty yearsago, and perhaps oneofthe most popular ectresses at Drury Lane, under the manage. ment of Elliston, was Mcs. Edwin, whose death took place on the 3d of August, at her lodgings in Chel- sea. This lady, whose maiden name was Richards+ made her first appearance at Covent Garden, No- vember 13, 1789, as Maria, in “ The Citizen” from which circumstance, though we have no record of her birth, she must have attained a very advanced age. She had required a well merited reputation in the higher walks of comedy, and at the fashiona- ble theatres at Bath, Bristol, Cheltenham and Dab- jin, she was anever welcome favorite. Tate Wil- kinson says of her, thst ‘no actrees in or out of London, was so ab‘e to sustain Mra. Jordan’s charac- ters. Aninchortwo more in height would have been an advantage toher. She possessed a hand- some, expressive, and healthy countenance, aiied by great spirit, nature and sensibility.” Having amass¢d by honorable exertions a conziderable sum of money (£3,000, we believe.) she was induced, unfortunately, to place it in the hands of an uopria- cipled speculator, and lost the entire. She was, therefore, compelled, in her declining years, to re turn to the stage, to secure a competency for: her oid age. With the assistance of eome friends, an annuity was obtained for her,and she then quitted ber professional labors. It should nothe omitted in this brief notice of this celebrated artisi’s career, that with many personal attrastions, her reputa- tion was unsullied and her conduct irreproacha- ble.

The Collins mail steamship Pacifie, Captain Nye, arrived at this port at half-past twe o'clock yester- day afternoon. She left Liverpool at ten minute past eleven o’clock on Wednesday morning, the 23d ult. ’ Some additional information has been received relative to the capture of Bomarsund, from which it appears that the heavy artiilery destroyed two detached forte, and that amongst the prisoners are General Bodisco the Governor, and Turubielm the Vice-Governor; of the fortress. The bombardment lasted from 5 A.M. on the 15th, until 2 pm. on the following day. It is reported, but it is to be hoped the report is not true, that the Russians blew up a fort containing some State prisoners, and also the secreted Aland pilots, Advices from Jassy, just received via Vienna, state that the Russian troops will have re-crossed the Pruth by the Ist September. Sixty thousand Russians were about to be concen- trated on the right bank of the Pruth, under General Luders, in order to cover the Rassian flotilla on the Danube, which would be sacrificed by the evacua- tion of Galatz. The report of a defeat of the Turks near Kars is repeated. Orders are given not to interfere with the trade between the inhabitants of the Norwegian Finmark and those of the coasts of the White Sea, they being a poor and inoffensive population. Archangel was effectually blockaded on the 13th ult. The firm of Hepry Wethemstein & Son, at Vienna, has suspended payment. Liabilities estimated at five millions of florirs. The London Times has a leaiing article on the cholera in the East. It says, that by the last ac- counts from Varna, cooler weather was not expected for eeveral weeks; and as it appeared to be thought the worst evil of the two to set sail, even if the ex- pedition was otherwise reajy, whidet the cholera was still raging, there was every prospect of the mortality continuing at a rearly equal rate. Tenor fifteen thousand are probably not too high an esti mate for the dead and disabled up to the moment of embarkation. The Times dwells on the subject of the melancholy apd inglortous loss of life and the ex- treme discouragement in the camps. It inquires what are we gaining by delay, which is more deadly than battles? The result is worse than if we had loat ten thousand men in capturing Sebastopol a month ago when onr arrangementa were incomplete, whilst the unfortunate dead have been deprived of the glory of the inscription, ‘‘ Sebastopol,” upon their tombs. The accounts with respect to the cholera at Galli- poli, Varna, &c., are rather more favorable. From Asia we learn that the plenipotentiaries who signed the treaty concluded on August 4, be- twern the Porte and Schamyl, were Mehemet Emin Pacha for the Porte, and Nemin Aga for his uncle Schamyl. This treaty is virtually offensive and de fensive. A remarkable circumstance illustrative of the course of trade is developed in the official returns of the exportation of tallow from Russia this season. From this document it appears that the exports overland, from St. Petersburg and the interior to Memel and other shipping ports, have been nearly equal to dhose of the same period of 1853, the figures being 26,000 casks this year against 27,600 last year- As far, therefore, as this individual branch of busi- ness is concerned, Ruesia has not only sustained no loss from the blockade, but bas made all the extra } price that has been paid to her people for transport, and which has sent up prices in the British and other markets. King Otho, of Greece, was becoming contuma- cious. He had refused to disband the irregular troope. Marstal Paskiewitch was at Warsaw, and in continual communication with the Southern army and St. Petersburg. Abdel Kader expresses deep interest in the war, but does not seem inclined to take part in it por- sonally. Bou Maza, who obtained permission from tlie French government to serva in the Turkish army, artived at Constantinople on the 4th. A few weeks since one of the Sultan’s wives died at Scutari, and was buried in the Mosque at Yeni- Djami, the ministers and high officials being present at the obsequies.

Don Vicente Gutierrez de Teran is appointed Chargé to Costa Rica, on the part of the new government. The Patriarch of the Indies was ordered to absent himself from Madrid. Gov- ernment bad ordered the purchase of 50,000 mus- kete, of Spanish manufacture. Large sums had been subscribed for the widows, orphans and wounded of the revolution. The firm of Morpurgo and Co., general comuais- sion merchants, chiefly in the Italian trade, have sus- pended payment. Grain speculation believed to be the cause. Their transactions were connected with Ga\atz and Alexandria, and they received consign- ments of cotton. The house in London was of re- cent date, but the Nabilities belteved large. Nothing in the shape of foreign news transpired, on Tuesday, the 224 ult., to influence the Londo g money market, and the cause of dulness in ‘,ho morning waa chiefly temporary.

Tere is one thing, howeve:’ certain, and that is that fy: arrests, two of whicl? are already known to ovr readers, have been madé, namely, thoseof M.M. Vic tor Considerant and Vandere Elst. The box addressed to the latter, and seized ix his office, did net contain an infernal machine, as represented, but eleven en gines of a eomewhat similar character. These eng'nes sre in the form of small obusses, aud are so in gi niously arranged with external'pistons on every side, that they cannot fail to explode when thrown on a hard eurface. ‘The other persons arreated are M. Brunet Largen- tiere, late of the artillery, who furnished the model’ for the obus, Sanders, the manufacturer, who made them, and Fourdrin, a French teacher, who has re- sided in Leige for many years, and who despatched the box to M. Van Der Elst.” The Etoile Belge adds the following particulars to thoze already given:—* It is said that M. Brunet de Largenti¢re, formerly an officer in the French army, ard who has inhabited Brussels fcr sey sral months, ordered M. Sanders, a manufacturer of arms, to con- struct incendiary tubes of a particular form for him. He requested the delivery of them in a letter a2com- panying a remittance of sixty francs on account. In this letter was the following passage:—‘ As to M. Victor Considerant, I prefer that you should speak to him yourself on the subjeet.’ This phrage is the only thing that implicates M. Considerant in the con- spir.cy, if conspiracy there be.” M. Considerant declares, we understand, that he onJy purchased the arms to serd to Texas, where le has organized a phalanstery with Mr. Brisbane, and M. Vander Elst, on his side, states that he only re- ceived the box to oblige a refugee, who told him that it contained nothing but soap. Thus the affair remains for the present. In the meanwhile the par- ties continue in custody. The Princess Zenaide Charlotte Julie Bonapar‘e, died at Naples on the 8th. She was the eldest daughter of Joseph Bonaparte, King of Spain, and was born in Paris on July 8, 1802. She married her cousin, Prince Charles, the eldest son of Lucien Bonaparte, and leaves by him eight children. Her usual residence was Rome, where three of her mar" ried daughters aud her eldest son, Prince Mussig nano, are living. An unfortunate accident occurred on theRose- meath Moors, Scotland.

It capitulated on the 16th inst., cfter a short resist ance. Two thousand Russians surrendered priso ners of war, with the commander and governor of the fortress. The loss on the side of the allies is given at 120 in one account, at oly 50 in snother- ‘The news was known in London on Saturday after- noon, but probably not in time to be telegraphed to the mail steamer. It was kaown at Paris almost simultaneously, and the funda rose at both places. ‘The attack on Bomarsund followed immediately atter the arrival of the land troops shipped from the camp at Boulogne. The fall of Sebastopol is now regarded as certain, as no less than 90,000 men will be landed cn the Crimea. "t appears that Sebasto- pol is not well fortified by land. It never entered the head of the Russian Czar that England and France would ever be allied against him. It is» however, a fact which he cannot diseyow.

From authentic information I can inform you that ‘on Austrian division has actually entered the Prin. cipolities and wiil occupy Bucharest conjointly with the Ottoman troops.

THE OFFICIAL NOTES BETWEEN THE ENG- LI8H AND AUSTRIAN GOVERNMENTS, THE STATUS. ANTE BELLUM AND: PEACE DIFFIe CULTIES. The following are copies of the correspondence and notes recently exchanged between the British and Austrian government on the Eastern question:—— THE BARL OF CLARENDON TO THR EARL OF WESTMORELAND, ForniGn Orrice, July 22, 1864. My Lord —I have to SS the receipt this dey, of. your Lordahip’s telegraphic despatch, by which her Majesty’s Government learn that Prussia haa ~ declined to attend the conference which Count Buol pro- pored to summon for the purpose of comenunicating the answer to the demands addressed by Austria to the Cabinet of St. Petersburg, and that it will in consequence be transmitted by Couat Buol to Count Colloredo for the information of her Majesty’s Government, Her Mujesty’s Government, however, being already in possession of this anower, and having taken it into ma- ture consideration. I shall no longer: deley communica- ting to your Lordship the views which entertain with respect to it. It is unnecessary to dwell at any length upon the argu- ments by which Count Nesselrode: endeavors to throw u the Western rowers the responsibility. of the war which Russia alone bas provoked. Count Nesselrode ob- bine to the form of the summons addressed to Russia by gland and France, and maintains that this summons, rendered imperative by the acts of was the trae canse of war; but he takes noaceountof the -long ssries of negotiations curing the past year, nor of the repeated warnings which were given to Russia by France and Eng- land, and he choogea to forget that it was the invasion cf the Principalities by Russian troops which first dis- turbed the peace. of Europe, and whieh has rendered abortive every effort for its restoration The despateb of Count Bool to Count E+terhazy, to which Count Neasel- xo¢e’s despatch isan answer, points out clearly upon whom the responsibility falls of the present state of things; and in tho protocol of the 9th. of A) the four Powers have solemnly recorded their opinion that the aummona addressed to Russia by Englansend France was founded in justice. ‘ihe opivion of Europe has been pronounced in favor ef the course pursued by England and Fraace, and itis nerdless, therefore, that they should defend themselves ogainst the acousations of Russia, I proceed to examine the other points contained in the Ruasion answer. In the first place, if the demands of Austria, supported b; Prussia, are considered in a purely German sense, it impossible that the answer of the Russian Cabinet cam be considered ratisfactory by the two Gorman Powers. ‘The main points put forward in Count Buol’s despatch to Count Esteriazy were -— 1. The nevessity of a speedy evacuation of the Danu- bian principalities 2. The impossibilities of making this evacuation, re- quired by the essential interests of Germany, dependent upon conditions which it was out of the power of Austria to insure. But Russia fixes no limit whatever to the occupation of the principalities; and she looks npon an armistice as a previous condition sine qua non of the withdrawal of. her armies beyond the Pruth. The injury, then, which in the opinion of Austria and Prussia the ‘Russian occupation inflicts upon the Ger- manic Confederation continues unabated; nay, more, it is oggavated by the refusal of Russia to attend to the just demands of the two German Powers. Count Nesselrode professes, it iatrue, to adhere to the pris’ es Inid down in the protocol of the 9th of April; ut this declaration is worth little, as loug as tho Rus sian troops remain on Turkish soil In fact, the evacuation of tho principalities is eseantial to the integrity of the Ottoman empire, and their occu- ae is in itself a flagrant breach of the public law of nTOpe. The crisis which disturbs the Pred of the world had is origin inthe passage of-the Prath; and it is icapea- sible to admit the pretens:ona of Kussia to make the re- paration. whieh she owes. for an act universally con- derned, dependent upon the np cee of a. position which she bas voluntarily created for herself. Nor can Zngland and Trance consent to an armistice upon the vague oes given by Count Nesselrode, ot the pacific disposition of the Russian government. After making sach groat efforts and sacrifices, and en~ gaged 24 they are ins cause so just, the allied rot will nopstop in their course without the certainty that they will not again be.ealled upon, after a short to reeommence tho war. ‘The particalar conditions peaca.zaust dey end apon too msay contingencies for it to be possible to lay. them down deGnitively at the pressat moment, Her Majesty’s geyernment have, howe’ no, hasi‘ation in stating the guarantees which, in opinicn, and in that of the French government, ara ca- santial to secuze the tranquillity of Furope from fature disturbances. These guarantees are naturally &' by the dangazs to guard sgainst whiok they are required. ‘Thus Russia has taken advantage of the ive right whieh rhe had azquired by treaty, to over the relations of Wallachia and Mowavia, with the suze. rain Power, to enter taose provinzes a6 it they were part. of her own territory. Agaia, the privilaged frontier of Russia in the Black fea has enabled her to establish in those wecera a naval owerwhich, in the abseneo of any couaterbslancing ‘The uncontr yy Rosea ps mouth of the Danube has created obstaales to the naviga- tion of that ed river which seriously affect thogeneral commerce of Europe. Fin: the stipulations of the treaty of Kutschuk. Kainardji, relative to the protection of the Guristas have become, by s wrongful interpretation, the princi cause of the precont struggle. Upon all these points the status quo ante bellum must undergo important moddfications. Her Majesty’s Government cannot dou! the Austrian Government will aimit that these views are im accordance with the incipies laid down In the protocol of April 9th; and that it would be diffcolt to restrict within more mi bounds the inquiry which, by that protocol, the Four Powers engaged themselves to @ in common, as to the means best calculated to msintain the Ottoman empire, by atiaching it to the general balance of Nn- rope. Bat fe, Mepeamtaite ft to tte whe protocol April—the only passage of ov importance, implying, as it does, the necessity of a Fu- ropean revision of the ancient relations of Russie witis. Turkey—Count Nesselrode carefully avoids making tue rlightert allusion. In fact, the profession of the Russian Cabinet, tlatit adheres to the principles laid or, uy the confereaee at Vienna, contaias nothing whieh & satisfac'agy na- ture. Her Majesty’s goverrment are at s loss to anderstand the meaning of Count Nesselrode's declara clon, that tne integrity of the Ottoman empire will no’, be menaced ny Ruseia so long as that integrity is respected by the Powers who now cooupy the territors ane waters of the Sultan. What comparison can be drawa betwoen tne invaders and the defeaders of che Turkish territory? What analogy cay exist between the presence of tho al-
