LATEST INTELLIGENCE FROM BUROPE.

BEABINER. |

Se a _ ee

Tuc English Mail, whivh was brought over on Friday, has

put us in possession of later advices from the seat of war, but, | owing to an accident that befel the telegraph marine cable | which connects England with the Crimea, the intelligence is | by no means as late as we have been accustomed to receive it, aud what there is of it, is mergre and unimportant. All we know is, that, excepting the affair at Eupatoria—of which no details have been yet received—to new feat of arms has been accomplished #ince the fail of Sebastopol. The Allied fleet had, indeed, as was reported last week, taken its stand in front! of Odessa, but when the mail left the Crimea; it was not known whether the intention was to bombard that place, or to uttack it on the land side with the powerful force said to be on board the fleet. The apparent inactivity of the Allies in Se- bastopol appears to occasion much discontent in England, for the British journals censure uneparingly the generals of the allied army for not following up the eaptur: of Sebastopol by

wome brilliant coup de main to drive the enemy from the Crimea.

At this distance, and with the limited information we possess, ere cannot hazard an opinion regarding the conduct of General | Simpson and that of his coadjutors in delaying further move- | ments. No doubt the time is weil employed in planning ope- | fations that ure destined to extend the catalogue of illustrious | achievements by which the present war has been so pre-emi- | nenily distinguished, and we loek forward with anxiety to the | arrival of the next English Mail to confirm us in this belief.

That thé Rotcians do not contemplate a yoluntary abandon- |

a

ment of the Crimea, appears to be a well authenticated fact. Their position on the north side of Sebastopol has been greatly |

sirengthened, atid they continue to add to the strength of its

fortifications; while the inducemeuts to remain there, and defeud it to the last, held out by the Emperor to his army, are

THREATENED BOMBARDMENT OF OTCHAKOW.

A letter from Vienna states that a strong squadron of the Allied fleets is threatening Otchakow.

Otchakow is situated in the Liman at the mouth of the Dnieper, and on its right bank. It has strong fortifications, which cover the side of the eminence on which it stands, down to the bank of the river. It may be considered as on the es tuary of the Bug and Ingul, which falls-into the Liman of the Dnieper, and in the direct course to the famous arsenals and dock-yards of Nicoldieff, on the Bug. Otchakow was taken for the first time by the Russians in 1737, under the celebrated
