There is nothing new from the scat of war, but unreliable rumors of battles near Perekop and Simphoropol, and the bombardment of Nicolaieff. i Peace rumors are numerous, but unreliable. " Strenuous efforts have been made to bring Sweden into the alliance.— Gen. Canrobert, at Stockholm,charged the Russians with endeavoring [ to force Sweden into the alliance. i Sweden is required either to assent or refuse. , It is reported from Berlin that Russia recently made a confidential communication to Prussia and Austria of her wish to renew negotiations and that Bourgueny had returned to Vienna with fresh instruction to j meet the contingency of proposals from Russia. It was further reported that Prince Gorschqkoff, a diplomatist from Vienna, and Russian Ministers from other Courts, are certainly to meet the Czar at Warsaw, about the middle of November, when the question of a renew al of negotiations will be -settled/It was also rumored that the Emperor oFFrance was favorable to negotiations . A French camp 0f50,000 men was i being formed in Silistra. The rumor of a battle near Simpheropo! turned out false. Accounts from Sebastopol say that the Russian projectiles reach the city almost every shot. A desultory fire was Kept up on both sides. The Allies say that the Russians are making preparations to retreat. Gen. Levaillant has been appoint>od,bTench Governor of Ssbastopol. Gene ral ttampbelt ense at the appointment of Codrington, and asks leave to return to England. French troops are to garrison Kinburn. The English troops returned to Sebastopol. A French force from Eupatoria, while making a reconnoisance, fell in with a large force of Russians. — The French offered battle, but the Russians retreated, after exchanging a few rounds of artillery. The French afterward burned several towns and villages on their route, and returned to Eupatoria. ~ Advices from Odessa, that it was fast being made defensible, although -some reports stated - that the Forts iwere to be dismantled, and the guns sent to Nicolaieff. Gen. Ludcrs was posted between Kinburn and Kherson. The Czar had returned direct to St. Petersburg. It was reported from Odessa, that the Allies had effected a landing near Perekop, and that the Russians were hastening to oppose them; the report hi duubttd7*~‘ St. Petersburg dispatches say that the Crimean army is provisioned for eight months.' -Ljr. —— A Vienna paper says that the Russians strength now in the Crimea is 200,000 men. Accounts from Asia state that Omar Pasha had opened friendly relations with Schamyl. Selim Pasha is to be stationed at Erzeroum with the Impelial Guard, whence he will threaten the Russians who ardbe-, seiging Kars. ' Omar commenced a march on Kutai on the 26th, with twenty-two battallions. Advices from Prussia mention the departure of embassadors for St. Petersbug. Vienna, Nov. 9.—Dispatches received by the Turkish Embassy state that the bombardment of Nickolaieff commenced on the 29th of October, and continued the whole of the follow’ing day. The result was not known. Constantinople, Oct. 29.—The Sultan has announced his intention of visiting London an<T Paris in the spring. ' - > ENGLAND. The leading journals are ashamed of the panic caused by the late war excitement, and are attempting to excuse, and let themselves gently dewn by attributing the pretended hostile attitude of America, to an election ruse on the part of the President and his Cabinet. Intelligent Englishmen of all ranks express themselves painfully humiliated by the whole affair. FRANCE. Another fake report has been cir-
cu!ated. of an attempt to assassinate the Emperor. The monthly statement of the Bank of France is not unfavorable in its general character, though it shows a diminution of a million of pounds in the circulation. SPAIN. Unfriendly relations are arising between Spain and England, partly in relation to the case of Mr. Boylan, a British subject who vvaa expelled from Cuba, notwithstanding her agreement to submit the case to the arbitrament of the British Consul in New Orleans. England demands indemnity for Boylan’s losses. ITALY. The misunderstanding between Sardinia and Tuscany remains unsettled. The departure of the Anglo-Swiss Legion from Genoa, for the Crimea, has been countermanded. The correspondent-of the London Post says there is no doubt of a revolutionary movement having broken out in Sicily. Several insurgents I have been captured and shot. Ar- ! rests had also been made at Palermo. The latest telegraphic news from London on Saturday morning states, that the corn market was very linn. Flour and wheat had advanced at Paris. i Advices from Russia show a more i warlike feeling.
