Crimea —Our Constantinople coriespon-
on the 20th October, via Mar
pl&won took p ace in Sevastopol. At 2 55, the
tamgseine ot the Russian redoubt blew up; the
Russians, however, returned to their guns. At
5 30, the ships fired on Fort Constantine, at short
range; the fire was kept up until d o'clock, aud
Balaklava, October 18. —The Russians have
remounted their guns, which are much heavier
than ours. Our loss yesterday was 96. The
p Retribution and London both caught fire, and 1
■6| have bad their mainmasts carried away. The re
doubts and round tower keep up a b. :sk fire.—
We net our munitions up with diffi ••.; :y.
The Moniteur of to-day (Friday) says that
Irobert’s report ot the 23 J states that the
itinued without any remarkable inci

h, some English engineer employed in

i/s»siAi» Accounts of the Siege—ln I
de Russe. ol the 231 ult., was published
’ing abstract ot a despatch dated the
,0. S .} trom Prince Menschikoff’s aid
—“ The enemy’s troops, on the south
*>l, have begun their siege operations,
enchesof the English opened at two
points, both at a considerable distance
fortifications, by means of fascines and
which they have brought with them,
day the greater part of their works is
destroyed by the well directed fire ol our artil
lery trom the ramparts, so that up to the present
time they have not completed a single battery.
Small detachments sent nightly trom the city
harass them continually. In addition to this a
detachment from our army have been moved for
ward to the village of Tchorgoun, on the little
river Tcherr.aya, with a view to cut off the wa
ter of the enemy, amtat the same time threaten
BKbommunication with Balaklava. From among
thetroops which have arrived byway of Perecop
to reinlorce Piince Menschikoff, the reserve di
vision of lancers, commanded by Lieutenant-
General De Korff, has been moved upon F-upa
--» observe the garrison left by the enemy
iia that town.
On the 30th September (12th October.) at the
■plipproach of our advanced guard, masses ot Arab
Tartar horsemen issued from the town, and
■wpened a fire of musketry upon them; but the
BPtnoving up a few squadrons to the support of the
r advanced guard was sufficient to overthrow the
enemy and drive him back with loss to the town.
On this occasion Major General Vladislevlevitch,
in command of the second brigade, was wounded
f by a musket ball in the leg; this is the only loss
we have sustained. The enemy’s troops, en
trenched in the town of Eupatoria,are now com
pletely blockaded on the land side, aud effectual
ly prevented from obtaining cattle and provi
sions among the Tartars of the neighborhood.—
With the exception of some skirmishes of the
outposts, nothing else has occuiredin the Crimea
up to the 3d (15th) of October.”
The Journal de St. Petersburg contains two
reports irom Menschikoff to the Emperor Nich
olas, giving details of the operations below Se
vastopol on the 17th and 18th.
The first asserts that at nightfall ou the 17tb,
. the first day ol the bombardment, the English
had only two guns able to return the Russian
fire, while the Russian had a few dismounted.
At noon on the same day, fourteen vessels of the
allied fleet attacked Sebastopol by sea, directing
their fire against Fort Constantine and battery
No. 10. The shortness of the time and the
smoke rendered it impossible to furnish complete
details of the loss on either side, but the Russian
cause had sustained a severe loss in the death of
Admiral Korniloff, whose leg had been carried
off by a round shot, and who died on the spot.
The second report, dated the 18th, says that,
though the allied fire was astonishing by its
power and noise, it had not done so much harm
as might have been expected. The Alexander
battery and battery No. 10 had notsufferd much;
but the Constantine battery had been greatly
injured. On the land side none of the Russian
batterries had suffered, except No. 3, in which
nearly all the pieces, 33 in number, had been
dismounted. Ihe Russian loss was estimated at
500 killed and wouuded—among the latter Ad
miral Nachimoff, very slightly.
During the night ot the ISth the Russians
were busily engaged in repairing the damage
done to tneir defenses.
Ou the 18th the English fire was less active
than on the day belore, and the French had
hardly fired at all. Prince Mensch.koff attributes
this to diversions made without the walls by-
Gen. Semiakine, who appeared in the enemy’s
rear, and thus diverted heir attention from Se
bastopol.
Tne vessels which bad taken part in the bom
bardment on the 17ch, and whicn Prince Mens
chikoff believed to be al French, had gone away
in tne duectiou ol Cape Chersonese. The smoke
on the 17th and a thick tog on the ISth, had
reridre J it impossible lor Prince Menschikoff to
state the enemy’s loss; but he says it would seem
that one ship of the line had been seriously
damaged, and two steamers set on fire by red-hot
6hot.
Vienna, Thursday.— By Electric Telegraph.—
The Austrian troops are moving from ibrail to
Gaiatz. whereas the gross ot the Turkish forces
are at Ibrail, whence they will attack Tultscha
and Isatscka. under Achmet Pasha, by march
ing via Matschin.
Berlin, Nov. 2.—A Russian note is said to
have arrived here in which the Emperor Nicho
las states that even af.er the tali ot Sebastopol he
will not in the least deviate from his demand on
Turkey.
Warsaw, October 25.—Four regiments ot the
troops stationed at Kielce were ordered to march
with their artillery’ on the frontiers of Galicia
and of Cracow.
Warsaw, Oct. 27.—The onward march of the
Guards has nut been countermanded, as was re
ported by the German press. It is true a few
regiments only are to remain here, but for no
other reason than because Poland has no room
lor more soldiers. The bulk of the Guards will
t-ke quarters at Giodno and Bialystock, and in
Volhynia.
The Press on tub War.—The Manchester
Guardian ot the 4th thus comments on the Rus
sian reports of their alleged victories in their sor
tie against the allies:
; - The Siege of Sebastopol.—Some excite
met-F, and perhaps a little alarm, were created !
on Wednesday by the arrival ot a telegraphic
message from Vienna, purporting to contain the
substance of a Russian official despatch from Se
bastopol, giving an account of some advantages
alleged to have been obtained over the English
troops engaged in the siege of that city. On this
message there were two versions, the first alle
ging that the Russian general, Liprandi, had at
tacked the English camp at Inkerman, had taken«j
five redoubts defending it, and captured eleven ]
guns; and that, at the same time, the English
liebt "cavalry, under the command of the Earl of
Cardigan, bad been a’tarked by the Russians and
SjgCjiy destroyed; the earl himself escaping w ith
difficulty.
* As the English camp was certainly not at oi -
I near Inkerman, but ou tLe other side ot the river
Tibernaya there was good reason to doubt the
authenticity of the message; and the appearance
||the second announcement, g.vmg the real of
# Ticial account, showed to what an extent the in
f 1-miitv of Viennese news writers is exercised j
W in the embellishment ot the accounts tnat pass ,
tolsU&ir hands. The foHo.in* i. the ear-1
MW foundation on which the great superstructure
pf detail* had been */ected :
“ St. Petersburg, Oct. 31.—A leport of!
Prince Meuschikoff’s dated October 25th. states j
thstGen. Liprandi bad attacked on the 25th a
detached camp ol the English, ami is reported to
have taken four redoubts which defended the
camp. At the same time, an attack of cavalry
is said to have caused a sensible loss to the Eng
lish light cavalry.”
How much loss may be sufficient to justify a
Russian commander in calling it “sensible,” we
are unable to say, but we know very weil that,
in a previous despatch, Prince Menschikoff made
great parade of the important fact of having sur
prised and captured a cavalry picquet of three
men ! What was the result of the attack on the
English cavalry beyond the “sensible loss” is
not explained ; whether a Russian victory or a
Russian defeat,‘is left altogether in the dark.
The English loss on the heights of the Alama
was certainly “sensible” enough ; but the Rus
sians had nothing to boasJ of in the results of
that affair, where,according to their own account
-their loss in killed and wounded was not less
than 4,500 men.
It is obvious enough that Prince Menschikoff
wrote his despatch before he had ascertained the
results of the attacks of which he was speaking;
being most probably at some distance from the
scene of operations. Another dispatch, dated a
day later, “confirms,”*it is 6aid, “that of the 25th,
announcing the check given to the English cav
alry,” but saying nothing of the capture of the
redoubts by Gen. Liprandi, which we may there
fore conclude was not confirmed. We have yet
to learn, from some more trusworthy sot’ice than
a Russian dispatch, how much truth, if any, there
may have been in the reports which the prince
sent home to his government.

Russians.
Official. —Saturday, 12 45 A. M.—The fol
lowing telegraphic dispatch has been received
at the Foreign Office :
i Constantinople, Oct. 28. —The captain ol
the English steam transport which left Balakla
va on the evening of the 25th confirms in a
great part the information brought this morning
by a French ship, and transmitted immediately
to London via Marseilles.
It appears that the Russians attacked the forts
in the vicinity of Balaklava -on the 25tb. Their
numbers are supposed to have been about 30 000
; men.
i The attack was unexpected. The Cossacks
preceded the Infantry. To resist these at first
there were Ottoman and Scotch tro ps.
The Turks gave way, ard even spiked the
i guns, which, se zed by the Russians, were turn
ed Bgainst them. The Scotch, on the contrary,
j remained firm in their position.
I Other forces arrived, and the Russians were
I obliged to yield the ground, remaining, never
theless, masters of two foits, from which they
fired upon our troops.
Three regiments of English light cavalry, ex
i posed to the cross fire ot the Russian batteries,
j suffered immensely. The French to ik part in
the afiair with admirable bravery.
On the next day their position was attacked
by a body of 8,000 Russians, as well from the
side of the town as from that of Balaklava.—
i They repul ed the enemy with a great slaugh
ter.
The loss of the Russians must have been very
great. It is affirmed that the fire of the batte
ries of the town had much slackened, according
j to the report of the wounded officers, some of
whom have arrived at Buyukdere.
The belief continued that Sevastopol would
soon be in the hands of the Allies. This ismere
j ly what has been gathered on the spot, from sev
; eral persons who are eye-witnesses ot what
j took place.
j The names of the killed and wounded are re
served for the official occasion ; among the
j names there is none of a general officer.

Settlement of the Soule Trouble with
France.
London, Nov. 3,1854 —8 P. M.
Special Despatch to the New York Herald.
James Gordon Bennett, Esq.:—Dear Sir-
Don Piatt, Secretary ot the United States Lega
tion at Paris, has just come over with despatches
for Mr. Buchanan in relation to the discourtesy
of the French government to the American Min
ister to Spam. Louis Napoleon, on last Sunday,
invited Mr. Mason to a private interview at the
Palace. In the course oi discussion, Mr. Mason
took occasion, with great firmness, to let his Ma
jesty understand to the full, the disastrous conse
j quences ot a war with America, and that he bad
no doubt on his mind as to the course which the
; American Minister to Paris should pursue in the
! premises. That he should at once, without pro
per explanations were given by the French
court, assume the whole responsibility ot the
jc< nsequence, and ask for his passpoTts. Louis
! Napoleon seemed as it just awakened to the bear
ing of American men and things upon European
! matters. He lepiied almost in the words ot the
article in the Constitutional, which you will
| have seen extensively republished in the Eng
! lisb journals.
The excitement of the Americans in Europe
j in regard to this affair had run so high as to af
fect the prices of French stocks. As the gener
al impression was that Louis Napoleon would
not recede, the London operators sold a large
! amount of French rentes.
L he consequence in Paris was the fall of stocks
nearly one per cent. As such a tendency was
j paittcularly dangerous at this time, when the
Emperor is in want of money, and the news
j trom Sevastopol so gloomy that the lestivities at
: Compiegne are a second time postponed, he had
no time for hesitation or dignity. His note to
Mr. Mason, breathing a still more deprecatory
tone than the Constitutiounel, was therefore
communicated in substance to the Paris Bourse,
some hours before it was delivered formally to
the Legation, in order to stop the alarming de
cline ot funds. The note withdraws all objection I
to Mr. Soute l sfree passage through France. Louis
Napoleon moreover invtles Mr. Soule to proceed
through the Empire on his way to Madrid.
It is csrt&in that the wh.le influence of the
British Ministry has been exerted, through !
Lord Clarendon, to produce the result j
that has been attained. The French Govern
ment did notj anticipate so decided as that ta
keo by Mr. Mason; it was thought that he would
refer the matter to the government at Washing- ;
ton which was considered too feeble to do any- i
thing.
. It is understood that George Sanders gives a
dinner to Mr. Soule, previous to bis departure, at
which will meet the Fiench republicans, Ledru
Rolhn, Louis Blanc, Victor Hugo and others.
On his arrival at Paris, the American citizens
there will invite him to a national banquet.
Thence he goes to Bayonne, and leaves for Spain
in the United States steamer San Jacinto.
It is said that Louis Napoieon has been so ful
ly convinced, by the turn this affair has taken,
ol the impolicy ot attempting to put a bridle on j
the wild Yankee nation, tnat he has resigned
himself to a perfectly amiable behavior, at least
Until Sebastopol is really en prist.

Later from Sicily. —Ravage * of the Chole - |
ra. —Advices have been received from Palmero
to the 17th of September. At Messina the
cholera was making frightful havoc, ’.aking off
from 800 to 1,000 per day. On the 16h the
report was that about one-half the population
had been carried off. The disease extended
even to animals—mules, cats at.d dogs dropping
dead in the streets. All the physicians who
had not fallen victims had fled the city.
The Government had issued a proclamation
calling for medical volunteers from the neigh
boring cities, guaranteeing payment to them.—
There were ten who had gone Irom Palmero.
On the 13th, 1,000 soldiers or convicts had been
sent Irom Palmero to Messina to cleanse the
streets and bury the dead.
At Naples, August 13, the disease bad abated,
the deaths amounting to about 300 per day ;
and, on the 23d, the deaths daily hid decieased
to2o or 25. At Palermo, 26th, about 350 per
day was the number. The whole number of
deaths at Palermo was estimated at 15,000, and
at Messina 45,000.
U. S. Vessels in a Gale.— A letter dated
Rio, Sept. 24th, says:
The (J. S. steamer Massachusetts, which
Wiled on Thursday morning from this portj
having in tow the U. S. sloop of war Decatur, *
I'otri bound to the Pacific Ocean, encountered a j
storm on Friday, about two o’clock, in which
the steamer Massachusetts was dismasted. She
lost her main and m:z«n masts clean with the
decks. No lives were lost, though several nar
rowly escaped.
The Decatur was in sight when the storm
commenced, and in the same position to the
storm as the steamer, and was not afterwards
seen. The steamer filed three guns, but had uo
answer Irom the Decatur, and are fearful that
she met with some accident. The steamer ar
rived this morning at 8 o’clock, in quite a leaky
condition—reported fifteen inches per hour.
I have not seen as yet any officers, and learn
ed the above from a gentleman who has just
been on board.

We shall welcome ffceappearance of Mr. Crisp
and his Company among us this season, with
more than ordinary pleasure. Tne recent gloom
which has so lately prevailed in our city, will be
greatly dispelled by the refined amusements
which Mr. Crisp and lady never fails to present
us. May success attend his efforts to establish
the drama in the South.
[Form the Atlanta, Examiner. j
Tne lirama
What the eccentric ami renowned “ Sol
Smith” effected lor the drama in the west, W.
H. Crisp is doing tor the interior ot Georgia.—
In your young, but growing city, he has succeed
ed in establishing a Theatre capable of accom
modating a large audience, and embracing all
the comforts usually found in the piincipal The
atres in the large cities ol the South. But he
has done more than this: he has succeeded by
his perservance and enterprise in elevating the
taste ol the greater portion of those who are
tond of visiting places of amusement, by his de
ifications of Shak<-spare’s characters, and those
oi other eminent diamatic writers. Instead
now of thiristwig after clownish repieseuta'ions
and the ** adroitness ol the Monkey riding upon
the ponV,” an intellectual least is represented
for their er j >ynn ut, of which once partaken
tew will not return to the least again. We me
induced *o make these remarks imm the fact,
that, on Sa tiniav night last, we were present at
the representation of Sn>kespaie’s gu-at play.
‘'The Merchant ol Venice.” It was the fiist
night of periortnance lor the present season. We
regretted to notice that the house was not full
as it should have been, as the whole perfomance
I merited. As “Shyiock.” Mr Crisp’s acting was
far superior to many, wbo, as “stars.” we have
seen treading the boards, and the proudly too, at
at the most lushonable theatres ot New York
and Philadelphia. And as “Portia,” Mrs. Ciisp,
we have never seen surpassed, particularly in
the scene where Shylock is constrained to pro
nounce her a “second Daniel.” There was in her
acting a dignity, grace and a self possession,
which might well become a “most learned
Ju Ige.” Indeed, while we started to notice on
ly the enterprise, and to compliment the dra
matic taientof Mr. Crisp we feel that we would
be chary in doing justice, were we to omit saying,
that, to his excellent lady, the public owe a
great deal, and in her absence, it is moie than
probable that equal success would not have at
tended the efforrs of her “ lord arid master.” In
saying this, we nave no allu.-ion to Mr. Crisp as
a delineator ot character, but as a manager whose
success depended upon piea>mg the public In
whatever sphere she moves, all will con
cede that woman has great influence. It i 3 so
;ri professional, as it is private lue. And when
we add to woman, woman's virtues am! their in
fluence extend d, as in the ca-e ot the iady of
whom we write, iy talents ot a high order iri
her profession, we do no’ say too much when
we attribute Mr. Crisp’s success, in tne sense
referred to, in a great degree, to the manner in
which he is always sustained by his estimable
lady.
Os the corps generally, we shall at present,
say nothing, save that it embraces talent in its
every department. Our object at the outset of
this article, was simply to notice Mr. Crisp’s ef
forts to establish the drama in our midst, and to
urge its generous support by our citizens. We
have, inadvertently, said more than we intended,
and must leave to a future occasion the notice of
the ladies, and gentleman of the corps, who con
tribute so much to amuse aed instruct our citi
zens.

Alleged Extensive Mercantile Fraud.
In New York, on Tuesday, Sergeant Mans- J
field and officer Smith, of the Lower Police
Court, arrested Henry J. and Samuel F. J. Ib- j
botson, hard ware merchants, No. 218 Pearl street,
upon a warrant issued by Justice Osborne,
wherein they are charged with having defrau- j
dsd G. M. Chapman (also a hardware merchant, j
and doing business in the same building with the j
accused,) out of $17,000 by false pretenses and
fraudulent representations, Mr. Chapman, in his
affidavit against the prisoners, says that on the
9*h of November, 1852 the accused called at his
office, and asked lor a loan of $lO 000, stating
that they were doing a good business, that they j
owned the Croton File Works at Sing Sing, that
they had a cash capital over and above all their i
debts add liabilities of about $lO 000, that they '
wanted the loan for the purpose of increasing I
their business from the profits of S2O 000 per an- j
num to that of $30,000 yearly, and that they
would faithfully restore the money borrowed 1
from the complainant; and upon their promise of
all being right, be consented to give them the
required sum, and accoidingly, on the 10th of
December, 1852, the complainant handed over
to them the required sum in ready money and
checks on the Uuion Bank. The complainant
further states, that, believing the represen ations
above mentioned, be neglected to take any se
cuiity other than their word of honor, and that
several months after this transaction, just previ
ous to the 13th of May, 1853, he loaned them
the further sum of $7,000, on the same represen
tations that they had made on the first occasion.
Mr Chapman now alleges that since the time
he loaned the money he has never received any
poition of it back again, and that he believes the
representations made at the time ol each loan
were false and fraudulent, made for the pur
pose of cheating him out of the above mentioned
sum
The defendants,on being taken before Justice
Oaborne, denied the charge most strenuously, and
were quite sanguine that their innocence will
soon be manife t. After hearing the complain
ant’s statements in relation to th.s alleged fraud.
Justice Osborne concluded to hold each of the
defendants to bail in the sum of SIO,OOO, to an
swer the charge preferred against them. Bail
was immediately forthcoming, and the defen
dants departed Irom Court until an examination
of the matter takes place.
The Ohio Election-Who Shall Rejoice?
The Statesman, published at Colum&us, Onim
says that it was proposed to get up a jubilee,
when the defeat of the Democracy was made
j known. All the means and appliances of a
grand display were to be brought inti requisi
tion to make the exultant demonstration duly
arid sufficiently impressive. So far, so good; but
when the matter came to be considered more at
tentively, it was impossible to say toko shall re
joice. The motive for an outburst of joy was
furnished in the defeat of the Democratic party.
Ihe means of making a noise were ready at
hand, in the shape of an adequate supply of gun
powder. But who could rejoice ? That was a
puzzling question. The Whigs could not rejoice
for they were worse beaten than the Democrats
not even having hal the honor of owning any
of the candidates. The Freesoilers could not ju
bilate, because, says the Statesman : “ They have
lost all distinctive peculiarities es a party and
because even their favorite subject was ignored
by other isms in reference to the foreign popula
tion. The black question gave way. The Irish
and Gefman question became uppermost. The
Know Nothings probably jubila'e, but they can
not even rtj >ice in public, for fear people will
see who they are, and then rejoicing will seem
like a mockery. There is none to enjoy the vic
tory .”
Frightened into Honesty.— lt is a true
maxim that “there is no great evil without
some little good and, in accordance wi h this
general rule, the Advent doctrine, although it
has occasioned much misery arid unhappiness
among i‘s deciples, has not been unattended with
good results. The Manchester Mirror says that
a few days since a gentleman in Manchester,
a boot and shoe dealer of that city, received a
letter from a person in Warner, enclosing a five
dollar bill, and sayinj . " B-iieving that we must
s f and before the Judge of the World. I could not
feel justified without writing a few lines to you.
You will recollect that l bought a pair of boots
of you and rieVei paid ior them. Therefore, I
send you this bill ”
The conditions exacted by Rachael, the
French actress, for an engagement in this coun
try, are said to be twelve hundred dollars a night,
and the payment of all her expenses. When it
is remembered that she performs in the French
language, and that French tragedv is a very dif
ferent thing, both in character and manner ol
pa.formance, from the plays of Shakspeare, the
hardihood of the manager rvho makes these
terms may be ea'sily imagined.
Salk of a Costly Sha-vd.— The great
Cashmere shawl—the finest needle-work shawl
ever seen in America—which cost $2700 at Con
stantinople, and was imported expressly for exhi
bition at the World’s Fair, was sold at auction,
in New York, on Wednesday, for one thousand
and twenty-five dollars. The purchaser’s name
was given as Jas. DeWolfe. Another sold for
SSOO.
The Washington Star learns that the Navy
Department anticipate the arrival of Commo

storeships "Supply , Southamp ton and Lexington ,
all ol that squadron, are now on thtir way
home, leaving on the station the steamer Pow-
I hattan, and the sloops-of-war Macedonian and
Vandalia. Captain Joel Abbott will be the
senior officer left there.

Oue of our exchanges has the following hit:
“The late Rev. Mr. Chapin being asked ot what
use the elders were in a church, replied, that it
was said to give power to ministers. He was a

ed, “my eiders have got on the wrong side, ai.d

Another, Indian Massacre.— A letter in
the St. Louis Republican states that on the sth

Barnum’s Book- —The indications are that
Barnum’s Autobiography, concerning which so
much has been said of late, is likely to have a
wider sale than any work ever published in this
country. Having had the privilege of looking
over Mr. Redfields “order” book, we found that
tbe ordt-rs tron%bookse!lers and travelling agents,
called, up to yesterday (the 14th) afternoon, tor
the extraordinary number of ninety odd thousand
copies. The orders received by each mail are
almost incredible—varying from 600 to 3 000,
verging more frequently upon the latter than the
former—and all this without the slightest pros
pect ot abatement. Booksellers whose general
orders for new books rarely exceed a halt-dozen
each, order this work in hundreds and five hun
dreds. Travelling sgents seldom call for less
than 100 copies, and Irequentiy as high as 1.000.
Were it not tor the extraordinary sale of “Uncle
Fours Cabin,” which,as we understand, reached
a t*'tal sale of 312.000 copies, the foregoing tacts
would be psrlectly amaz ng:—as it is," they ap
pear comparatively astounding. Should the or
ders continue tor the next two months in the
same ratio,as the publisher confidently antici
pates, the copyright oi his autobiography for the
United States alone, will net Baruum ever
