in size is the Aidak, or Cucumber; and the smallest is

the Dcrvisc Island. The throc islands. which are closet‘ to the coast of Turcomenia. will form an excellent eta-I tion for troo s that are to be sent to Kbiva. On cxamin-l ing an goo map it will be seen that the distance from

the Gulf of Balkan to Khiva is about two-thirds less than

it is from Orenbur to the last~mentioned place. and that I there is no dcssrtfi:-etwcen the coast of the Caspian_and 3 Khive. The great desert of Kharasm is considerably! south of the road which would be taken by troops march- ing from the Gulfof Balkan to Khiva."

A letter from St. Petersbur of the 3rd. in the Inde- pendence of Brussels, ea c . “ c garrison of New Arc angel. the capital of the Russian possessions in North America. has just been reinforced on account of an in- vasion madc last car by the Knloscbis. This savage tribe. which inhabit the neighbourhood, surprised the garrison, scaled the ramparts. and could not be expelled from the church in which they had taken refuge until after a very senguinery combat. Since that time the state of the colony has been satisfactory. and its cem- mcrce with California has much increased.

The Patric announces. on the authoritv of a letter from Kalish. that the troops of the lust Polish levy but one have received orders to leave immediately for the Can- casus.
