LLtB 91 GC Of StBASTOPOL.
The latest 'dates front Sebastopol are to the
4th inst., one - dav preceding the - salifng of the
stea mer, receive - 4
per telegraph. The allies
were gaining ground. all the Russian out
works having been taken. Sanguinary en.
eo,►niers were frequent and the loss on both
de if"'
sides was ititatense ---
_- There was nothing, however, in the siege
Set to warrant an assault , and the bombard
-valeta h a d much - slaekened.not having produced
t h e result anticipated ; indeed the position of
the allies was regarded as critical, notwith.
standing the advantages they had gained. .A
large number of Russian mortars had been
taken with many prisoners.
- Although the allies had minio Lims progresß
towards use city, thriir bombardment had intich
slackened on the 28th, so as not to waste their.
ammunition. -
An inuttenie Russian force was reported to
be concentrating near Sebastopol, said to be
100,000 strong.
FROM THE .CRIMAA.
Lord Raglan' admits that .the bombardment.
of Sebastopol had not produced the result
looked for. The list of casualties to the allies
was not heavy.
The general impression in England is that
the siege will be abandoned for the present,
and the whole of Rainiest} arid Balaklava left
to the defense of a few corps, while the main
position of the allies try to penetrate the inte
rior and cut off the supplies of- Sebastopol,
and then completely invest the town.
Numerous reinforcements were constantly
reaching the allies, : and the French reserve 'of
80,000 men near Constantinople were expect
ed to be sent to Balaklava.
Russian official accounts to the 24th ult.
represent the damages sustained as but of lit
tle account, and all were ~actively repaired,
lodate the skirmishes were_ generally success
ful. The loss sustained by the garrison from
the 11th to the sth ult;---was 7 subalterns, and
436-men_killed ; 6 superior, 31 subaltern offi
cers and 1,899 men-wounded.
The_griglish captured the first Russian rifle
piton the night_ of the lith after a desperate
encounter. - Col - . Graham Egerton, the field
officer, in command, was killed.
On the 20th an attack was made on the sec
ond Russian rifle pit, which was almost im
mediately abandoned.
The condition of the allies is decidedly more
critical than that of the enemy.
Fifty thousand Russian reinforcements had
arrived at Sebastopol. - The allies thus far
have not destroyed a single Russian battery.
Six thousand Turks had been sent to join
Omer Pasha, at Balaklava.
ENGLAND.
Daily telegraph communication between
London and the Crimea was fully established
and continues uninterrupted. The govern
ment, ithwever. was very cautious . with the
news, and made public but a very small por
tion of that received.
The King of Prußsia at the latest dates was
quite ill with a fever, and softie fears wers en
tettained for his recovery.
The Emperor of the French had a narrow
escape from assassination on the evening of
the 28th tilt., while on his way to join the Em
press in her usual ride in the Champs Elyseeh.
The Emperor was accompanied by two offi
cers of hts household, and when near.llarriene
de l'Etoile he was approached by a well
dressed man with the action intimating a de
sire to present a petition. advanced with
in five or six paces of the Emperor, who did
not observe him, when he was discovered by
a policeman.
As the policeman was proceeding towards
the man, a cab was driven rapidly between
them; and, in the interval, the individual drew
a double-barreled pistol. and aiininu it point
blank at the Emperor, discharged both barrels
without effect. Immediately he . was seized
by the police, but not until he had drawn anoth
er pistol and made a second attempt to shoot.
It is said that one of the balls grazed the
Emperor's hat. The would-he assassin is an
Italian named Pianori. He was a volunteer
in . Girabaldi's array.
The cause of the attempt is understood to
be personal revenge, and nothing of a political
nature.
The Emperor made the following speech i
the Senate trt reply to its congratulations upon
his escape front assassination t"—
"I thank the Senate for the sentiments ex
pressed. I fear nothing from attempts at as
sassination. There are existences which are
decrees of Providence. As long as I shall not
have fulfilled my mission I run no danger."
France has ordered another levy of 20,000
troops for the Crimea.
TURKEY AND RUSSIA.
It was rumored that-a separate treaty would
be signed between Turkey and Russia, form
ing part of a European treaty of peace. The
first division of the Austrian army had received
marching orders.
THE LATEST.—Dispatches per
: telegraph,
from the Crimea, report a, sharp engagement
on the night of. the Ist of May, in a front and
lett attack, which ended in the whole of the
Russian rifle•pits being taken, together with
eight light mortars and two hundred prisoners.
The whole affair was a brilliant one fur the
al lies.
Trts TELV.GRAPI7.—The Electric Telegraph is
now established almost without break, from
London, across Europe, under the Black Sea
and into the Crimea—a distance of some eight
hundred leagues, which is about equal to four
fifths of the actual distance between Liverpool
and New York, and more than equal to the
whole route from Ireland to Halifax. The last
newspapers from England, by the Asia. con
tain intelligence from Balaklava if the pie6ious
clay. That is, such intelligence was committed
to the wires at Balaklava, at 5 o'clock in the
morning, and received in London on the after
noon of the same day.
The sub-marine cable is laid down some 300
miles at the bottom of the Black Sea. It re
mains to be seen how far it may be affected by
undercurrent-' and other obstructions. Scien
tific men in Europe have iittle fear on that
bcore. The principle once established as suc
cessful, we may speedily expect to hac7e. a sub
marine telegraph line between the Old IVerld
alid - thCNew, - and there is no reason that once
accomplished. why the daily news of London
and Paris should not be puldished in this
country within a feir hours of its occurrence.

---- ,= - Th - e - Englirdi press admits that all hopes of
peace havefled. and that no-atssistance can be
expected from Austria. and hut little from the
rest of Europe—consequently France and Eng
land must be prepared to fight it out..
The London Times publishes an article ex - -
pressing these views. The paper also has an
editorial in behalf of the government, stating
that it is impossible to peruSe the official doeu
ments of the Vienna conference without seeing
that Russia' never was in earnest in her pre
tended desire for peace.
Earl - Grey, in the House of Lords, gave no
tice of a motion that an address be sent to the
Queen. 'deploring the failure of• the peace nel
gotiations at Vienna, and setting . forth, as the
opinion of Parliament, the belief that the pro
posals of Russia were never such as 'to, afford
a fair prospect of concluding a peace.
Bruyn de L'huys, the French Minister of
Foreign Affairs has resigned from an unwilling.
ness to protract the war.
Pianori, who attempted to assassinate the
Emperor, has been condemned to death.
The police report that they hive discovered
a vast plot, - with ramifications throughout
Europe, to promote insurrection, and hence
Pianori's execution wilibe postponed in order
to trace his connection therewith. On the day
the attempt was made it was freely stated in
various cities of Italy, Spain and Germany.
that Napoleon was dead, and that Paris was
in a state of insurrection.
The Vienna correspondent of the London
Times remarks: ..As long as no—'ftvoltztiona
ry elements are brought into action Austria,
will leave Russia to get out °flier difficulties
as best she can ; but, if England and France
would resolve to form a corps of refugees and
employ them on or near her frontiers. a holy
alliance would assuredly again be formed.
CONSUMPTION OP IRON AT SEBASTOPOIL.-If
the Russian war shall have the effect to, ditnin-
I ish the manufacture of railway iron in !
Eng
land, it seems likely to create a demand for
iron in the shape of cannon balls and shells
quite equal to, if not exceeding. the diminution
in the amount required for Railroads. By
the last steamer's news we learn that the Al
lies have five hundred guns playing on &has
! topnl, firing one hundred and twenty rounds
daily. We calculate that fifty of these shot
and shell will weigh one ton. At every round
fired there will be of eourse ten tons, and each
day twelve hundred tons weight of cannon- ,
balls and shells thrown into Sebastopol. .The
bombardment at the latest dates lasted twelve
days, and of course there had been thrown
into the town in that time fourteen thousand
four-hnndred lons If iron. It is proboble that
the Ru - ssians may have hurled back at the
Allies nearly the same weight of metal; and it
is safe to compute the total consumption ofiron
in the siege of Sebastopol for these twelve days
at twenty-five thousand tons. The iron, thus
thrown away and wasted in war in the brief
period of twelve days, would furnish the met
al required to construct about 2,200 miles of
Railroad.
THE MASTER SMUT AT SEBASTOPOL—The
head engineer at Sebastopol is a young man
named Tod!Own, who at the commencement of
the siege was a captain almost unknown.
When the siege commenced, Prince Menschi
kolf, it is said, - asked the then head engineer
how long it would take to put the place in a
state of defence. He answered "Two months."
Todleben steped forward and said he would
undertake to do it. if he had as many men as
he required, in two weeks. He (lid it in
twelve days, and was Made colonel. Since
that time he has had the direction of everything
in the way of building batteries, defences, &c.
The other day the Grand Duke called upon his
wife, who is residing in St. Petersburg, to con
gratulate her upon her husband's promotion ;
for he is now General and Aide-de-Camp to
the Emperor. The Russians adopt the com
mon-sense practice of taking the titan who will
do the work hest and they get it the best done.
This is the practice in well conducted private
business ; it is still more necessary in public
service, where the Consequences of mistakes
through incompetency and ignorance may al- -
lea a whole nation.
NEW STATES COMING. —A - bill fur the divi
sion of California into three States was intro•
duced into the Legislature of that State at its
session. This bill provides for the erection of
three separate States within the present turd
tory of California. Of those the first or south
ermost, bears the nave of Colorado, and em
braces full half, if not more, of the area of the
present State. The second is the middle, or
populous region, including San Francisco and
the great mining counties. It is to be called
California. The third is the Northern Divi
sion of the Territory, and is to be called Shas
-ta. The act provides that all the requirements
and powers of the constitution of the State of
California shall apply and be in full force and
effect in the new States of Colorado and Shasta.
and shall not be altered or • changed by the
people thereof until the expiration of one - year
from the date of 'the formation of a State gov
ernment in said States.
