ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMER AMERICA.
IIai.ifax July 6. The steamer America
has arrived. She brings Liverpool dates to
the 23d, which announce that the English
and French troops attacked the' Redan and
Malakoff forts on the 18th, but were repulsed
with great slaughter. The details have not
transpired.
Mr. Roebuck has moved a vote of censure
in the English Parliament.
A new French loan has been announced.
The intelligence from the Crimea is frag
mentary, but private advices say that the loss
to the allies will not be less than 4000, inclu
ding Gen. Campbell, and 70 other officers.
Many rumor are prevalent.
The America arrived at Halifax on the
afternoon Cf tnt 4th. She brings dates to
the JJ3d nit.
Lord Raglan's despatch and the newspaper
correspondence are to hand, describing the
gallant capture of Mamelon and the quarries.
The main facts have been already stated with
geneiid correctness. The allies have made
an nnsuscessful attempt to storm BebastopoL
1 he most sinister rumors prevailed in regard
to the transaction by some accounts. The
J-j.uglish loss is set down at 4000 men, but
"CTn"1 U much
L f??owulS the only official noti
fications of the eventj Lord Panmure regrets
to have to announce that ho has received in
formation that the English troop, attacked the
Redan and the French troops the Malakoff
towers at daylight on the morning of the 18th
without the success which has hitherto Btinl
aea our cnorts. Uolh the French and
selves have suffered considerable. .
j - . - --
onr-
The advices from Pelissier to the French
government are to the Eame effect. -
Private aocounts published in . the London
Standard say that the loss of the British of
ficers in killed and wounded amounts to no
less than seventy. - Among them are Gen. Sir
J. Campbell, Col. Yea and Col. Shadforth.
The greatest portion of the loss was experi
enced in a ravine where a powerful and un
expected battery was opened on the troops.
The allies lost terribly, the Russians spinging
a mine, and during the confusion they re-captured
the Mamelon tower.
A despatch from Bucharest via Vienna
confirms that an expedition has undertaken
against Herekoh.
The Russian account of the successes of
the allies in the sea of Azoff is published.
Gortschakoff confesses the successes claimed
by tLe allies, .but says that the operations
against the sea of Azoff were expected ; the
Ftores of grain destroyed were private proper
ty, and not intended for the use of the Rus
sian army.
The correspondence relates the horrible
atrocities perpetrated by the French and Turks
at the capture of Kertsch.
A despatch from Varna dated June 17th,
which was retarded on the way, says the Rus
sians had made unsuccessful attack on Kars,
and reported that they had retaken Anapa.
The Austrian Commander has proclaimed
matial law in Moldavia, but the Moldavian
authorities refuse to promulgate the order un
less authorized by the Sultan.
Constantino Balse, son of the reigning
Prince, was killed at Jassy in a duel, by the
Austrian Major Stalberg' The affair had
caused considerable sensation in the Princi
palities. The recent attack on an English boat crew,
at Haugo, causes much excitement in England.
The unprejudiced supposition is that the Rus
sians supposed the boat was taking soundings,
as recently was done at Kertsch The Rus
sian account in the Invalid Iluss, says that six
were killed, and the remainder are prisoners.
AC8TKIA.
Tho Rnssian influence is very active, and
even in the smallest German courts.
The Journal of St. Petersburg publishes
the semi-official discussion on Count Walewas
ki's French circular of 23d. The Journal
also, semi-officially says, that peace is possible,
if France and England are willing, inasmuch
as the fourth point is morally although not
formally settled, and the other points, name
ly: the navigation of the Danube and the
evacuation of the Principalities, arc also set
tled, leaving only the Vienna third point to be
arranged.
The Austrian army is being disbanded,
and the reduction is great and rapid.
GRIAT BEITAIX.
The steamer nermann carried out intelli
gence of the presentation to Parliament, of
the report of Roebuck's committee. The re
port merely admits that the sufferings of the
army have been aggravated by incompetency
i at home. Since then there has been consid-
able excitement created by Mr. Roebuck, in
consequence of his report being overruled by
the other members of the committee, they
having given notice of a vote of censure on
the government, so worded as to embrace the
grievances of all sections of the opposition.
The debate on administrative reform after
rppo-atad. adjournments aded in tho tmaniiaous
passing of Sir Bui wer Lyton's resolution, that
the House of Commons recommends to the
earliest attention of the ministers the necessi
ty of a careful revision of the various official
establishments.
Mr. Buchanan has received the degree of
Doctor of Canon Law from the University of
Oxford, ss also did Chief Justice Robinson,

son, &c.

per cent, on the announcement of his illness.
