THE THREE DAYS' 1101%111ARMIENT44 SEBESTO-
POL-TIIE OPENING SCENE
SEPT. s.—At dawn on the morning of the
sth of September the French opened fire.—
The air was pure and light, and a gentle
breeze from the south-cast, which continued
all day, drifted over the steppe, and blew
gentlyinto Sebastopol. The sun shone serene•
ly through the vapors,of early morning and
wreaths of snowy clouds on the long lines of
white houses inside those rugged defences of
earth and gabionade which have so long kept
our tirades gazing in vain on this "august
city." The ships lay floating on the waters of
the roads, which were smooth as a mirror,
and, like it, reflected them, and outside our
own fleet and that of the French equally in
active, and not quite so useful to us, wore
reposing front Katzatch to Constantine as idly
as though they were 'painted' upon 'a painted
ocean.'
EC=
The bombardment is beginning to tell on
these buildings. A church, decorated with
many small pinnacles at the angles of the
roof. Some of the best mansions have been
split open, or gape from their cracked walls
on the day; others are perforated right through
with shot-holes, through which the bglit is
visiblo—windows, doors, pillars and columns
are broken or destroyed.
I=
The men in our trenches can he seen sitting
down behind the traverses, or strolling about
in the rear of the parapets Small trains of
animals and tiles of men are passing over the
ground between the trenches and the camp,
and the only smoke that catches the eye arises
from the kettles of soldiery, or from IL rifle in
the advance works. On the left, however, it
can be seen that the French trenches are
crowded with men, and that their batteries
are all manned, though the men keep well out
of view, find the mantles and screens are yet
down before •the muzzles of their guns: The.
men beneath the parapets swarm like bees. A
few grey•coated Russians are in view prepar
ing the works of the Flagstaff Battery, or
engaged in throwing• up a new•work, which ,
promises to be of considerable strength; in
front of the second Hue of their defences.
I=
Suddenly, along the earthen curtain be
tween Nos. 7 and 8 bastions, three jets of flame
spring up into the air and hurl up as many
pillars of earth and dust, which are warmed
into ruddy hues by the horizontal rays of the
sun. The French have exploded three fou
gasses to blow in the counter-scarp and to
servo as a signal to their men. Instantly from
the sea to the Dockyard creek there seems to
run a stream of tiro, and fleecy, curling rich
white smoke, as though the earth had been
suddenly rent in the throes of an earthquake,
and was vomitting forth the material of her
volcanoes. The lines of the French trenches
were at once covered as though the very clouds
of heaven had settled down upon them and
were whirled about in spiral jets, in festoons,
in clustering bunches, in columns and in
sheets, all commingled, involved together by
the vehement flames beneath.
TUE BTOUM OP FIRE.
The crash of such a tremendous fire must
aye been appalling, but the wind and
_the
peculiar condition oi . .the atmosphere did not
'permit the sound to "produce any great effect
on our camp; in the city for the same reason
the noise must have been terrific and horrible.
The iron storm tore over the the Russian
lines, tossing up, as if in sport, jets of earth
.and dust, rending asunder [pillions, and 'squel
ching' the - parapets, or hounding over among
the houses and ruins in their rear. The
terrible files of iron, about four miles in front,
rushed across the plain, carrying death and
ruin with it, sweept with its heavy and irre
sistible wings the Itu shin flanks, and,searched
their centre to the core. A trolley so startling,
simultaneous, and tremenduously powerful was
probably never yet uttered since, the cannon
found its voice.
TILE CONSTERNATION OF THE RUSSIANS
The R 118941.118 seemed for awhile utterly
paralyzed, their batteries were not manned
with strength enough to reply to such au
overlapping and crushing energy, rapidity,
and strength, kept on filling the very air with
the hurtling storm, and sent it in unbroken
fury against, their enemies. ➢lore thiin 200
pieces of artillery of the large calibre, admi
rably served and well directed, played inces
santly on the hostile lines. In a fewmoments
a great veil of smoke ; —% war cloud , rolling
dun'—spread from the guns over on' the loft
of Sobastopol but the roar of the shot did not
cease, and the cannonade now pealed forth in
great irregular,
.bursts, now died away into
hoarse murmurs; again swelled up into tu•
mult, or rattled from end to end of the line
like file•fire of 'infantry. Stone walls went

WEIMESDAY, OCTOBER., 10 1855.
However, so swift and incessant was the pas
sage of these missiles through the embrasures
and along the tops of the parapets, that the
enemy had to lie close, and cote(' scarcely
show therns . sves in the front line of defences
For a few minutes, then, the French hod it
all their own way,-and appear to be on the
point of sweeping away the place without re
sistance; but, after they had fired a few rounds
front each of their numerous guns, the Rus
sian artillerymen got to work, and began to
return our ally's lire They made good prac
tics, but fired , slowly and with precision, as if
they could not afford to throw away an ounce
of power. The French were stimulated rather
than impeded by such a reply to their aston
ishing' yolleys, and their shots flew with in
creased rapidity along the line of defences,
and bounded in among the houses of the town.
But what were we doing all this time?—
What was our admirable Naval Brigade and
. our gallant siege train doing? They were just
working their guns as usual, and had received
uo orders to open general fire. Our batteries,
therefore, rendered little assistance to the
French, but they maintained their usual de'
structive and solid 'hammering' on the face of
'The \ Bedell and of the Malakoff, and aided our
invaluable allies by keeping up a regular shell
practice on the batteries from the Creek to
Redno. Now two or three mortars from Gor
don's, then two or three mortars from Chap•
man's, hurled 10 and 13 inch shell behind the
enemy's Works, and connected the di,eharges
by rounds from long 32's 'or 08's. It' is ant
known why this evident want of unanimity
existed, and why we did hot open fire at the
same time with the French. General Pelissim
was over at our head-quarters, and bad an
interview with General Simpson yesterday,
and it is nut unlikely that the French com
mender, with his characteristic impetuosity, re
solved on opening tire finding that we were
not quite prepared to do so with effect, and
relying on his own numerous and heavy
ordminee and abundance of ammunition.
Meantime our allies are pounding away
with exceeding warmth at everything within
range of them. Our Query Battery, armed
with two mortars and eight colic rim just lUt,
yards below the Redan, plies the suburb in
the rear of the Malakoff vigorously, and keeps
the top of the Redan clear. Redati and Nlala
koff are alike silent, ragged and torn. At
most the Recital tires three guns, and the ad
joining Vatteries dye' equally parsimonious.—
The parapets are all pitted with shot and shell,
and the sides of the embrasures are greatly
injured so that the gabions are sticking out,
and are tumbling down in all directions.—
There is no more of that fine polishing and of
that cabinet-maker's work which the Russians
bestowed 0.11 their batteries; our constant fire
by night, our riflemen, and incessant shelling
have prevented their assiduous anxiety as to
external appearance being gratified. After
two long hours and a half of furious fire, the
artillerymen of the allies suddenly ceased in
order to let their guns cool and to rest them
selves.
The Russians crept out to repair the dam
ages to their works and shook sandbags full of
earth from the parquette over the the outside'
of their parapets. Their gunners also took
advantage of this sudden cessation to open on
our sailors' batteries in the loft attack, and
cause us some little annoyance from the 'crow's
nest.'
At ten o'clock, however, having previously
exploded fongasses as before, the French' re
opened a fire, if possible, more rapid and
tremendous than their first, and continued to
keep it up with the utmost vigoetill 12 o'clock
at-noon- by - which time the Flagstaff road and
Garden Batteries in a position to reply. We
cou'd see them in great agitation sending men
and carts to and fro across the bridge, and at
9 o'clock took a powerful column of infantry
cross over to resist our assaults while a move
ment towards Inkermatin was made by the
army of the lielbek. Soon after ,our fire
begun, as early as 6 o'clock, the working
parties which go over to the north side every
morning seemed to be recalled; and were
marched back again over the bridge to the
south, no doubt to be in readiness for our ex
pected assault. From 12 to 6 I'. M., the firing
was slack; the French then resuming their
cannonade with the same astonishing vigor as
at dawn and at 10 o'clock, and never ceased
their volleys of shot and shell against the place
till half-past seven, when darkness set in, and
all the mortars and heavy guns, English as
well as French, opened with shell against the
whole line of defence. •
A description of this scene is now impossi
ble. There was not ono instant in which the
shells did not whistle through the air—not a
moment in which the` Sky was not seamed with
theit fiery curves 'or illumined by their explo
sion. Our practice was beyond all praise.—
Every shell burst as it ought, and the lines of
.the Russian earthyvorhs, of the Redan, Mala
koff, and all their batteries were rendered
plainly visible by the constant light of the
'hurstWFA.bells. The Russians scarcely at
tempted a reply.
SEIT. 6.—Last night a steady fire was kept
up along the front to prevent the, Russians re-

poring damages At 10 orders were sent to
our batteries to open in the morning. At 5.80
all the batteries from Quarantine and hiker
mann opened. The Russians were silent.—
The cannonade was maintained as it was
yesterday.
I=
SEPT. 7.--The- cannonade was resumed at
day-break, the Inkermann batteries firing
bri,,ltly. A Coundil of Generals was held to
day at head•quarters, the sick were cleared
out of the field hospitals, and it gradually
oozed out that the assault would take place to
morrow nt 12 o'clock. The firing wns tre
mendous all day, but clouds of dust, which a
high wind from the north drifted into our
faces, rendered a view of the place impossible.
SEPT. 8, 11 A M.—All comers from Bala
klava and the rev of the camp are stopped
by a line of sentries. Another line of sentries
in front prevents any one going as far ns Cath
cart's Ilill, or the picket houses, except staff
officers or men on duty. The fire is ereceed
ingly heavy. The assault takes place at noon.
The 4th division is now under arms.
NPTURE OF THE MALAKOFF AND REDAN.,
The folloning dt tails of the assault itsel
r#re from a French letter, dated Constanti
nople:
*The Malakoff Tower, attacked with unex
ampled impeto”sity to the cry of 'Vivo i'Em
purcur,' wars carried after a murderous strug
gle on both sides. The formidable position
was occupied without delay, and batteries were
established on it with remarkable celerity.—
The Little Redan of Careening_ Bily—W4LB-4:430
taken, but us the Russian batteries poured
down a tremendous fire on those who were
the first to occupy it, oqr men were obliged to
abandon it to return to it afterwards. The
few details I have picked up I send you in
haste, as the Indus weighs anchor iu two
hours.
On the night of the 7th all the necessary
ai rangemcnts were taken by General Pe'ismer
with admirable precision. On the Bth, at
midday, our assaulting columns issued from
their posts, and marched on against the enemy
to the cry of 'Five FEmpereur,' with nu im
petuosity beyond all description, and in spite
of a tremendous fire in front and flunking fire
from the Little Itedan, the ditch was soon
missed, and after an hour of a murderous
struggle, the French flag floated on the tower,
and was hailed with one electric shout of
triumph by the whole army. Batteries were
instantly placed in position, and we . are esta
blished in the Malakoff in as, solid a manner
as if we had held the piece for a very long
time past. Our battery poured down on the
Russians fleet u perfect storm of shells; three
ships were set on fire in spite of the precau
tions by the Russians, and the following morn
ing those that had riot been destroyed by our
shot were sunk by the Russians. The south
part of the city was on fire; and the Russians
passed into the north forts.
Our losses are severe. Several Generals
have been killed; four aro wounded. I have
only been able to ascertain one name among
the latter—that of Gen. liosquet. We have,
moreover, 4,000 men hors du combat. I can
not vouch for the exactness of this last number,
and the first estimate is too often erroneous.
The attack ou the Redan by the English was
made with the utmost vigor. They were re
pulsed three times, but each time those gal
lant troops returned to the charge, and re -
mailed piaster of the position. Ile Little
Redan of Careening bay was also occupied,
but the Russian fire, which inflicted enormous
injury on die first 'occupants, did not allow us
to maintain it.'
1 1 CHEAP FLOUR THE BERT.—The New York
Times has recently been discussing a question
' of very great importance to the consumers of_
flour, and the facts it has elicited should be
universally known. It alleges but little reli
ance is to be placed upon the brands found on
the barrels sold in the market, and that the
words •.extra Glenessee" do not always indi
cate that the barrel bearing them contains the
best quality of flour It bases its assertion on
certain results elicited by chemists, viz; that
the whiter the Flour the less nutriment it pos
sesses, and the lees digestible it is. Vyspeptic
people have to use bread about one fourth
bran, which proves that the dark part of the
grain is the most healthful. The Fflaur which
can be bought now for seven and eight dollars
per barrel is stronger and sweeter than the
"extra Genessee," but as it is lea's white it is
generally rejected in favor of the dearer arti
cle. It is time that housekeepers understood
this fact, and that they bought Flour not to
please the eye, but to gratify the stomach, and
at the same time have a respectful reference to
the capacity of one's pocket.
TOURIST.—Mies Murray, one of Queen
Victoria's household, who has been in the U.
States for over a year, has recently returned
from an excursion through the great wilder
ness region of Northern New York.
,Slio was
accompanied by Gov. Seymour and one or two
others, and spent about a fortnight in the ex
pedition—equiping out in tents most of the
time. Tho party entered from the north, by
the Sarum Lakes, and passing through Long
Lake,, the Raquetto and chain of Fight Moose,
ltiver•Lakes. emerged at Boonville. She is
now at St. Louis.
THE NEW YORK STATE AantcuutuADJ'Ain.
—This exhibition. held nt Elmira last week,
was quite successful. Up to noon on Friday
the receipts amounted to over $ll,OOO, against
$9,000 last year, and $6,00Q the year before.
Governor \\right, of Indiana, deliver ie an
nal address' which is said to be • a most able
production. The Governor, after touching
upon agricultural resources, products, said ;
"We must,cultivate the roots—not die tons.
We roust make the fancily government, the
school, the farm, the church the shop, the ag
ricultural fairs, the laboratories of our future
greatness. We must educate our tlons to be
farmers, artizans, architects, engineers, geolo
gists, botanists; chemists—in a. word practical
men. Their eyes must be turned from Wash
ington to their States, counties, townships.
districts homes. Thisds true patriotism ; and
the only patriotism that will perpetually pre
erve the nation."

Pftichs or FOOD.—The movement for reduc
tion of the prices of provisions by combination
of the consumers, is assuming considerable
impoi tnnce. A large meeting was held at Fe
neuil Hall, Boston, Thursday evening. where
a scheme for an extensive joint stock provis
sion establishment was presented. It was
stated that while the five cent Baker's loaf
weighs but nine ounces, a pcund loaf could be
afforded, at profent prices of flour at 30 per
cent. One firm ih Boston had made a net
profit of $240,000 during•the last year, on its
flour trade, and another small establishment
had cleared 100,000. While Beef retails in
Boston for from 17 to 25 cents per pound, beef
cattle roll in Detroit, Chicngo,and Cineinntti
for $3 50 per hundred, and the cost of trans
portation from Chicago to Boston is not over
one cent per pound. Other similar facts were
stated, showing that an immense profit is made
on the necessaries of life, while passing from
the produeet' to the consumer. The consum
ers propose to go into businesi fbr themselves,
and save the profit.
COURT MARTIAL. —A court martial bas been
sitting in New York, since September 26, un
der the presidence of Captain Samuel Jones,
Ist Artillery. judge advocate, to try First
Lieutenant Horace Haldeman, Eighth Regi
ment ILS. infautry,lor "conduct unbecoming,
an officer and - a gentleman."
The charges are fradulently withdrawing
$9OO from the Treasurer of the Fund at Fort
Columbus, and embezzlement of provissions
belonging to the United States soldiers to the
amount of about 4,3u0 pounds. Lieut. H. was
the acting commissary at the fort from July
Ist to September Ist. The case is a very se
rious one, and the trial will probably occupy
several days. The friends of the accused off
icer are very much concerned iu his behalf,
and they ask that public opinion be suspended
until the trial is concluded and his defense is
heard. It has not yet closed.
INDICTMENT OF A JUDGE FOR BRIBERY.-111
the New York Court of Oyer and Terminer,
yesterday, the Grand Jury presented, among
other cases, two indictments against Sidney
H. Stuart, City Judge, one for bribery, and
the other for conspiracy to defeat the ends of
justice. Wm. G. Elder, policeman, is indict
ed for conspiring with Judge Stuart to defeat
the ends of justice. Judge Stuart apprehend
ing such a result in the matter, Mr hearing
that he had been presented by the Grand in
quest, appeared immediately after the papers
were returned to the Court, and gave bail in
the sum of $2,500 to answer the charges.
He states that he is innocent of the complaints
preferred against him, and hints that it is a
conspiracy to ruin him, and that he can estab-
lish his innocence before the proper tribunal.
Officer Flder states the same as the City Judge
in regard to his innocence. lie also has give❑
bail to answer. The charges made out in the
indictments are accepting bribes in two speci
fied caves for defeating the ends of justice.
M.. The intelligence from Nicaragua is that
Col. Kinney has been chosen Provisional,
Civil and .Military Governor of Greytown, and
the territory thereunto belonging. Be has
issued 'an inaugural address, in which he
pledges himself to spare no effort to procure
from our Government indemnity for the losAes
sustained-by-the burning-of Greytown. Col.
Walker has turned up victorious at last. On
the 3d ult., he prpceeded from San Juan del
Sud with one hundred and fifty men to Virgin /
Bay, where he was attacked by Gen. Guutz --
diola, with four hundred men. The govern
ment troops were handsomely beaten, with a
loss of fifty men, while Walker lost only one
white man and four natives. It was reported
that ho had returned to San Juan with the
intention of attacking Rivas, the head quar-
ters of the government forces.
MA:1011 JAM Dowstna's OPINION.—The re
doutable Mojor Jack Downing has written
another letter to the President, through the
columns of the National Intelligencer. The
inimitable satirist winds up as follows:
'I see things.are thickening up all round
you, and with the troubles in filexico, and
Denmark, and Kansas, am! tho melting down
and miring up of about 1 political parties all
over the country and running them into thirty
new moufds, you must have your hands full,
and wilt need all your friends to stick by you;
and assure you am not the man to desert
an Administration so long as I hold an office
under it.'
