fascinating book, containing details in regard to the slave trade, and to commerce generally and colonial life in Africa, in regard to which popular information is very limited.

THE BRITISH FORCE IN THECBIJffEA. The British journals appear to be

opening their eyes to the real charac-

er of the present war. The difficul

ties already encountered by the allies

from the invasion of Russian territory,

have produced a very decided change

in their opinions respecting the power

of resistance in Russia, and their

hopes of ;i speeay conquest. One en

tire senson has) passed (over, and (dill no impression ha been made upon the

enemy. Fleets greater than England

ever assembled in hostile array before

an adversary, have been unable toac

complish onydecided act which brings

England nearer to her object to put

a stop to the territorial progress of

Russia. In the Crimea ho has been

the most successful in operations, but

even there has accomplished nothing

decisive, while her army is melting

away with alarming rapidity. Of the thirty thousand men who left England

for the seat of war on the Black Sea, she has lost by cholera, by war, and

other casualties, 14,000 men, accord

ing to the calculation of the Liverpool

Northern Times. Her army has re

cently received a reinforcement o

1,200 marines, and perhaps 2,000 troops of 11 arms, and with the 4,000 men which are going out, the British

force may be increased to 23,000 or

25,000. Tho inadequacy of this force

to retain possession of any conquest made in the East against one of the

most powerful countries in Europe, begins tovprcss itself painfully upon

the English mind, and hence we sec

the journals beginning to rouse the nation to new efforts to sustain the honor of its arms, involving a vast expenditure of treasure. The Times says : "We require an allied army of 200, 000 men in the East, and it is vain longer to deny thc fact, or endeavor to give a more favorable coloring to the position we are really in. France can

supply her contingent, Rnd England i must find her moiety. Wc were in

hopes that diplomacy, backed by a

formidable warlike demonstration on the pait of the two great military and naval powers of Europe, would have

brought the zar to some equitable terms. The' vision has now passed away, and the idea of playing at war any longer must be totally exploded. "The troops stationed in our colonies must be brought home, and the defense of our distant possesions left to the loyalty and patriotism of our colonists. Recruits must he obtained, and no means of ofiene or defense left longer to take care of themselves. All tbat is now being done, is well enough as fir as it goes.

"" t-muiij in Hin VII1UV, under Lord Cardington, is, in the main, confirmed; they enarged a Russian

battery of thirty guns, and four hun

dred were killed, and only two hun

dred returned.

On the 4th there was u sanguinary

engagement ; on the 6tU another ter

rible combut, including a aortic and general attack by thc forces under

MenschikotT. The battle lasted from day-break until four, o'clock in the af

ternoon ; both sides claim to have whipped. The EnglUh took about

1,000 prisoners, and the Russians

stormed several of the batteries of tho

allies and silenced the guna. The al

les lost 5,000 and the Russians 8,000.

The Czar'a two sons were in tho battle.

The fighting was resumed on the

following day, but the result was not

known when the Baltic sailed.

The allies were preparing to storm

Sebastopol, before the Russian forces

recovered, nnd a practicable breach

was effected.

Russia, with a view to complicate

negotiations, notifies that he will treat

direct with Austria on the four points.

Since the battle of Alma, (Mensem

koff, has been reinforced bv the for

ces under Gonerals Chomutoff, Lapra

uu and Horn. The entire infantry

force of the Russians at Sebastopol, is 40,000, which, with thc cavalry

and artillery, swell the, entire force to

60,000 men.

Tho best that can bo said of the news

for the allies is, that it is of a rather

doubtful character, whether they will

be able to maintain tneir position

several hard battles have been fought,

and in each they have conquered, but

their josh cost them na much as a Uc

feat. At the same time, so closely

have their affairs been drawn, that

each party persists in claiming the

victory. It is now admitted that the defen

ses at Sebastopol were underated as

well as the brarery of tho Kussians,

and the force that Menschikoff had in

the field was whollv unexnectcd.
