| The Siege of Sevastopol.— lt is confirmed
that on the 13th September. Eupatoria was occu
pied without opposition by 2000 Turks, V lQoo '
r French and 1000 English troops. The Russian •
garrison, numbering 400, surrendered at discre- 1
tion. The advance guard was under command 1
of Prince Napoleon. On the 14th the main army 1
landed, unopposed, half-way between Eupatoria 1
and Sevastopol—horses, artillery and munitions
—all safely. The Russians retired in good order
_ai the allies landed.
; Mercbikoff, who had his headquarters at Sim-
phkropol, immediately advanced to Burliuck, on
~v the River Alma, where he awaits re-enforce
ments to give battle to the allies.
It was confidently stated ou the Paris Bourse
tbatmn the 19th the allies and Russians met and
a battle ensued. The French came first into ac
tioi 3, the English soon came up, and the Russians j
retired with much loss. If true, this occurring
on the 19th could only have been skirmishing—
not a battle between the main armies.
The Russian Embassy at Vienna had received
a dispatch dated the 22d from the Crimea, but all
that had transpired was that it contained news
unfavorable to the Russians.
The latest dates from the Crimea (certain) is
T,7j the 19th. when the allies held the road from |
Cape Baba to Simpheropol. It was intended to
cross the Alma on the 19th, but Marshal St. Ar

unavoidable delay of two days—cause not stated
—which would prevent them marching till the

and that the main body of the allies was on a

at the latter point, but with insufficient artillery.
Admiral Lyon’s squadron, with 100 transports,
had left the Crimea to fetch the reserve.

Music and Charity.
Among the contributions from abroad coming
to the relief of the sufferers in our afflicted city,
we are happy to notice the gift of the proceeds
of a Concert held in Greensboro, by the talented
professor, oLMusic, Messrs. Otto Mayer and N.
B. Clapp.
This is as it should be, genius voluntarily ex
tending its hand of charity, and by means of
sweet music, hush the groans of suffering, with
material relief drawn from afar.
A friend, writing Greensboro, mentions
that ‘"the Professors were assisted by several
first-rate amatuers; one of whom was Mrs.
Y —of Savannah;” and he adds—“ The music
they gave us was worth more money, and would
have drawn the most refined audience of any
city. The proceeds would have been larger,
but for the circumstance that the body of our
citizens had already given or subscribed for the
relief of Augusta. *
We are gratified to be informed through the
same source, that these distinguished, and kind
hearted gentlemen are to give another Concert
for the same purpose in the flemishing town of
Madison.
Ottr Mobile and New Orleans Friends.
We publish below, from the Savannah Repub
lican of Saturday last, an outline of the proceed
ings of a public meeting of the citizens of that
city, held on Saturday, which we consider highly
honorable to her citizens. When it was known
that there was a scarcity of physicians in that
city, several having been stricken down by the
fatal epidemic which had made wide spread
havoc, the Howard Association of New Orleans
and the Gant-Get-away-Ciub of Mobile, prompt
ly sent able physicians and experienced nurses
to the.r assistance. On their arrival in Savan
nah, they found that our beautiful city was in a
suffering condition from tha same epidemic, and
j that we were in need of good nurses —*
1 Ihe Howard Association promptly sent us
six nurses, and an experienced physician, Dr.
Campbell, aad since their arrival they have been
kept busily and willingly employed in attending
to the relies of tne sick, and have done good ser
vice-
Finding not much need for further services in
Savannah, the Cant-Get-away-Club delegation
of Mobile, and of the Howard Association of
New Orteens, left on their way home, carrying
with them, the gratitude and good wishes of
•very citizen of Savannah; but with that good
Samaritan feeling, which characterizes the mem
bers of both societies, they turned off their direct
road to visit our city, (where they arrived on
Sunday morning,) to ascertain the wants of our
community, and, if necessary, to remain with us
a while longer. Finding their services could be
dispensed with, they took their departure on
Sunday alternoon for their respective homes.
They carry with them the good wishes of our
citizens, for the prompt relief afforded to our sis
ter city of Savannah, and their'willingness to
render the same, if in their power, to the citizens
of Augusta. The following are the names of
those composing the respective delegations. We
wish them a pleasant and safe passage, and should
either of them again visit our city, they wil|
meet with a warm welcome, although we fer*>
vently hope, on their next visit, they will not J
same arduous duties to perform.
Howard Association. —Dr. G. W. Cross. Nurses
—Mrs. Wilson, and Mrs. Dunovan.
Cant-Get-Away-Club. —Dr. J. C. Hamilton.
Nurses —J. H. Higley, ft. C. Turner. D. E. De
Wolfe, Mrs. Rolls, Miss Reily.
Dr. Campbell, and five of his associates, still
remain in this city, and will do so until an abate
ment of the fever takes place. On their depar
ture, we hope the few citizens we have left, will
express their gratitude in a proper form, for the
valuable services rendered by them. They have
witnessed their exertions, and can appreciate
theii noble conduct since they have been in our
midst.
Savannah and hor Friends.
The meeting on Saturday morning, called by
His Honor J. E. Ward, Mayor, we were highly
gratified to see was so well attended. The Ex
change Long Room was filled to its utmost capa
city, and every one manifested an interest in the
proceedings about to take place, which were to
exhibit to our friends from Mobile and Njw Or
leans the appreciation of our city of the benevo
lent spirit that urged them in the cause of hu
manity, and to render some tribute to the indi
vidual worth of the representatives of these gen
erous and noble sisters in the confederation which
proudly adorns the flag of our Union. Though
they were not as the messengers of the respective
States of Alabama and Louisiana, but of benevo
lent Associations in the limits of each,.we claim
this offering as a reflection of the magnanimity
of the whole people that sent them—creditable
alike to their natural impulses as the Samari
tanlike conduct of those who came to minis
ter to the suffering and affliction which for a time
bore our devoted city down to the very verge of
despair. The heart of Savannah is full of grati
tude, and proudly does she recognise the benevo
lence of “Our Country.” The special tribute
here paid to our sister cities is but a feeble sense
of our heartfelt appreciation ot the many mani
festations of regard that showered upon her in
her hour of peril from every quarter.
The tokens were presented by Mayor Ward,
in accompaniment with one of his most happy
efforts, full of the true sentiments of gratitude,
and glowing with fine touches of the pure and
lucid language of the heart.
That presented to Dr. J. G. Redwood was a
service of silver, a Tea Set, comprising five pieces:
—to Dr. J. C. Hamilton, a pair of Pitchers and
six Goblets; and to Dr. G. W. Cross, three Pitch
ers, six small Goblets, and one Salver—all of
silver, and of the finest workmanship; furnished
by one of our own jewelers, Mr. Wilmot.
The engraving on one of each set was as fol
lows: which, for want of time, will herealter be
executed alike on the others, with the slight dif
ference of names of individuals:
PRESENTED TO
DR. J. C. HAMILTON,OF MOBILE,
By the City of Savannah.
A Memorial of Gratitude for his Devotion to the
Sick and Suffering,during the Painful
Pestilence of 1854.
Drs. Redwood and Hamilton are representa
tives of the “Can’t-Get-Away Club” of Mobile,
and Dr. Cross of the New Orleans Howard As-«
sociation.
We know of nothing better as an appreciation
of their services, than to adopt the sentiment
offered by Dr. J. P. Screven :
“As long as time endures, will the names of
Redwood, of Hamilton and of Cross be associated
with all that is noble, gallant and self-sacrificing
in the medical profession.”
As a tribute to the memory of the Physicians,
who fell at the post of duty, a resolution was
passed that the citizens of Savannah will erect
a suitable nonument, to which laudable object
Dr. J. P. Scieven contributed one hundred dol
lars.
Dr, Screve'ft, in presenting our fiiends to the
meeting thus addressed the Mayor, who presid
ed :
Mr. Chairman: —ln the performance of the
duty assigned to them, your committee have the
honor to introduce to this meeting our esteemed
friends, Drs. Redwood and Hamilton, of Mobile,
and Dr. Cross, of New Orleans. Having just ful
filled their missions of love and of mercy, they
are about to take their leave. It will be your
duty Mr, Chairman if it has not been already
performed, to express to the corporate authorities
of Mobile, to the “ Can’t-Get-Away-Club” of
the same city, and to the Howard Assorfation of
New Orleans, our appreciation of their benevo
lence in sending physicians of the highest char
acter to the relief of the sufferers, by yellow fever,
in this city. It is ours to testify to these gentle
men our gratitude for the efficient manner in
which they have discharged the duties assigned
to them. As long as time endures, will the
name ot Redwood, ot Hamilton, and of Cross, be
associated with all that is noble, gallant, and self
sacrificing in the medical profession.
His Honor then addressed himself ;to Messrs.
Redwood, Hamilton and Cross as follows:
Gentlemen:—l -ve been instructed by the
Authorities of the city, to return you their
grateful acknowledgments, and as a feeble ex
pression of their thankfulness, to ask you to ac
cept this Plate. How, fellow citizens, am I to
perform the task of expressing your thanks ?
“The eye may weep, the heart may swell,
But the poor tongue in vain essays;
A fitting note for them to raise.”
I shall use, gentlemen, only th9tanguage of so
berness and truth.- The occasion which might
tempt me to indulge in the creations ot fancy,
belongs toother ane happier seasons. A pesti
lence was upon us, it had enteied our houses and
was desolating our city; its home was alike in
the mansions of the rich, and the hovel of the
poor—age nor infancy nor beauty found from it
reverence or pity. The altar of the most high
Gotl afforded no protection, for whilst those
who ministered there were engaged in pointing
out to the parting soul the path to heaven, they
were summoned themselves to lead the way.
That noble band by our profession of whom
their city is so justly proud, worn and exhausted
by their labors, but never abandoning for a mo
ment the path of duty, though it lead them
amid opening graves, and though one after an
other was called away until their business
seemed to be to die---possessed not the physical
power to give the necessary and medical aid to
all who required it.
Wl You took the censor of fire in your hands,
and came forth to stand between the living and
the dead, and stay the plague which raged among
the people.” Stricken by the disease, it was
my misfortune not to be able to welcome yow>to
our city, that duty developed upon another, its
performance, and the performance of the labors
of an office involving at that time so much dan
ger to his own life, must be to himself a source
of life-long consolation and has commanded for
him the gratitude and affection of our whole
people. Your mission of love having been ac
complished, you aie about to return to those
homes which were abandoned for us. The ser- |
vice which you have rendered will never be
forgotten while Savannah exists, but the names
ot Redwood, Cross and Hamilton, with those ol
that noble band of nurses who have been for
weeks past surrounded by pestilence and death,
ministering to the stranger’s wants, will here
be cherished and honored long, long after
“We and ours have rendered up our trust,
And men unborn shall tread upon our dust.”
Death of a Printer. —Among the many
who have fallen victims to the ravages of the
pestilence in this city, there is none, with whom
we were not personally acquainted, who com
manded more of our sympathies than William S.
Kellogg, a compositor in our office, who breathed
his last on Friday afternoon, after a protracted
and severe attacs of Yellow Fever, aged about
tvyenfcy-seven years. We learn from his friends,
to Whom he was much attached, that he was a
native of New Yoik, where he served his ap
prenticeship in the office of the Courier & En
quirer, after which he served a term in the Navy
on board the U. S. ship Ohio. He came from
Savannah to this city in June last, since which
time he has been engaged in this office, where
he performed his duties as became a most worthy
member of the “ craft ;’ 7 and in his intercourse
with his fellow-men, his bearing was ever hon
orable and gentlemanly.
When the pestilence made its appearance
among us, he was among the Jew of ali our com
positors who volunteered to remain and aid us in
our efforts to publish our paper—hence the deep
sympathy we felt for him and our great solici
tude for his recovery. To his absent friends and
relatives, none of whom conld be present to
minister to his wants or soothe his dying pillow,
it affords ns melancholy pleasure to say, he did
not suffer for medical or other attention; and
when the monster claimed him as his victim,
the last sad offices were properly paid by his
friends. —Chroniae 4- Sentinel, lith met*

BY TELEGRAPH.
Loss of the Arctic.
Columbia, Oct. 16.
Luce’# letter fully sustains the versions of oth
ers, and blames the firemen and crew lor seizing
the boats in spite of all efforts to prevent their.
The ship sunk a quarter to five.
He then proceeds, that after considerable strug
gling, he rose to the surface, but was carried
down the second time, rose again much exhaust
ed. A portion of the wheel house struck his son's
head, killing him instantly.
He describes the scene as awful. The water
strewn with rffen, women and children, shriek
ing for help. Many sustained themselves on
pieces of the wreck. Myself and eleven other*
got on the wheel house, but during the first two
days all but three died. Two vessels’hove in
sight, but the thick fog prevented them from dis
cerning us. Finally, the Cambridge bore down
and rescued them, and subsequently six others,
from fragments of the wreck.
Qy We received no Charleston papers by lost
evening's mail.
Telegraphed for Baltimore American.
Loss cf the Arctio—Further Particulars j
Boston, Oct. 12.—The Europa arrived here at
11 o’clock to-night. Fourteen survivors of the
steamship Arctic are among her passengers.
Mr. Charles T. Mitchell, ot Charleston, S. C,
and Edward Dupasseur, of New Orleans, two of
them state that Mrs. Collins and her son and
daughter were diowned by the upsetting of the
boat in which they had been placed by Cap l- .
Luce. Mr. John Degnon, the first assistant en
gineer, furnishes us with the following statement’
“The first I heard was a cry of ‘Stop the en
gine.’ Immediately after this I heard the sig
nal-bells running to have them stopped. At the
time I felt the crash of the collision, in company
with the chief-engineer, Mr. Rodgers, I ran down
to the platform, before reaching which the en
gines were stopped by John Wiliet, the engineer
on duty. Mr. Rodgers looked over the platform
into the bilge and saw the rush of water, and he
then gave orders to open the bilge injection,
which was immediately done. At this time
the bell rang for engines to go ahead again. Mr.
Rodgers then told me to go forward and see that
the Worthington pumps were set to work, which
was done. At this time the four bilge pumps,
the two bilge injections and the Worthington
pumps were in full operation. In the course of
ten minutes after the collision the water rose
over the fire room floor, a height ot four ieet,and
in thirty minutes mere the lower fires were put
out. The engines continued working.; the steam
falling down to one and a half pounds. In thirty
five minutes more the water had gained so much
as to put out the upper fires. I then left the en
gine room and went forward and informed Capt.
Luce that nothing more could be done by the en
gine or pumps.
The names of the passengers saved in the
two boats which reached Broad Cove are as
follows:
Iu the Second Mate's Boat. —C. T. Mitchell, of
Charleston; W. A. Young of Ireland; W. Gil
bert, of New York; Henderson Mores, of New
York; F. De Mayer of Mexico; Wm. Gibson,
Jr.
In the other boat werß G. Da Passein, of
New Orleans, and Mr. Geib, Purser of the Arc
tic. These are ail fust class passengers.
The second-class passengers saved in these
boats were; E M. Tuss, Jr., J. Bogart; J.
Hennessey; J. McHath; Geo. Dobbs; Du La
conais, the serva: t of the Due de Grarnmont.
Mr. Baahlam, the second officer of the Are
tic, also arrived in the Europa.
When Mr. Mitchell left the ship he says Mr.
Brown’s family, seven in all, were standing on
the deck, and all are supposed to have gone
down.
Mrs. E. K. Collins, with her son and daugh
ter, and many other ladies, were put in a boat,
but in the act of lowering it, all save one, who
clung to tir? party who held on to the boat, were
thrown into the sea and lost.
A large boat capable of holding fifty or more
persons was on the deck ol the Arctic, and being
too heavy to launch, it is supposed she would
float off.when the shiD sunk, and not be carried
down with her.
Boston, Oct. 13.—The St Johns, New Found
land papers oi the otb, censure Governor Hamil
ton and the American Consul for not taking
speedy and efficient measures to search for the
survivors of the Arctic. The news reached St.
Johns on the 30th.
The ship Nautilus, w hich arrived at St. Johns
on the 4th, passed, about 25 miles from Cape
Race, a quantity of wrecked materials undoubt
edly belonging to the Arctic, the wind, however,
blew too hard to save them.
Boston, Oct. 13.—We have to-day received
St. Johns, N. F., papers, by the Europe, which
announce the arrival of the Vesta, the steamer
in collision with the Arctic, but make no men*
tion of her having rescued thirty-one of the Arc
tic crew, as announced by our telegraphic des
patch from Halifax yesterday. 11 such was the
case it seems singular that it should not have
been, mentioned in the papers.
SECOND DESPATCH.
New York, Oct. 13 —The fact that the New
foundland papers, received at Boston, of the sth
instant, make no mention of the Vesta’s having
rescued any of the passengers of the Arctic, in
duces a strong doubt about the correctness of the
despatch received yesterday from Halifax. We
have made the effort, but find it impossible to
get a conclusive answer from Halifax to-night.

• Exports from New York.— The exports
from New York to foreign ports for the month
of September sho v a large failing off in the item
of domestic produce. From the Journal of Com
merce we get the following statement:
“The shipments of foreign goods show but lit
tle change, while the exports of specie (including
some clearances on the last day of the previous
month) have been larger than ever before re
ported within a single month. The nearest ap
proach to the same total wjs during the month
of June, 1851, when the amount was $6 462 367.
The total exports for September, exclusive of
specie, are $1,851,559 less than for September of
last year, and $582,126 greater than for Septem
ber, 1852.
“ The exports from this port since January Ist
are larger than ever before known duiinga simi
lar pe'iod. The total, exclusive of specie, is
$3,170,513 grealer than for the first nine-months
of last jear, and $13,389 375 greater than for the
same period of 1852. The amount of specie ex
ported since the Ist of January is $30,203,743,
which is less than the first nine months of 1801,
when it reached $31,261,271.”
Mr. Douglas and Gen. Lincoln. —A dis
cussion of the merits of the Nebraska bill lately
came off between Senator Douglas and
Lincoln, a whig speaker,at Springfield, Illinois,
of which the St. Louis Republican, whig, speaks
as follows:
“Mr. Douglas proceeded to take up Mr. Lin
coln’s positions, one by one, in the most skilful
manner, and as he passed on from one to another,
flaying his opponent alive upon each proposition,
as his friends doubtless thought, the cheers could
not be repressed. I state this as a mere witness,
having no feeling in the matter, but simply giv
iug my observations.
“Mr. Douglas spoke about two hours in the
most animated strain, and the audience accumu
lated rather than decreased. His great forte seems
to be the answering and putting down of his
opponents, and on this occasion his competitor
was overwhelmed, being evidently unused to
such warfare.”
State: Road Results. —The Atlanta Exami
ner of the 14th inst., says—The above Road has
made, during the year, about six hundred thou
sand datWts. The principle of money making
is a powerful and telling argument with the peo
ple of Georgia, with reference to this great work.
It matters not how much persons may differ as
to Rome points of political policy upon the Road,
jurtice requires that we should say that Major.
Cooper has managed the fiscal concerns of the
Road more advantageously than any Superin
tendent we have ever had. The Road is in a
thriving and healthy condition.
CHATTANOOGA, Oct. 14.—Market, few trans
actions-. Weather warin with the appearance of
rain. The river a little upon tha rise. Prices re
main stationary. We notice a large quantity of
wheat being forwarded to the East. It comes from
above. No oha.nge in quotations.
Bacon —But little in market—selling at 10al2j

Corn Pew tr in3aoti*ns—worth 80 cen!s inclu
ding sacks. The prospects are that corn will com
mand still higher rates. Very little in market.
