made a sudden sortie on the work which we had taken from them, and the defences of which were still in an imperfect state. It was guarded by two companies of the 2d Re ' cut of the Foreign Legion, one company of t$len43d, a weak battalion of the 46th. and a still weaker one of the 98th. These batta- lions, which remained on duty during the day, had sufered severely in the combat of the pre-

ceding night. The assailants commenced by a P0

sharp ﬁre of musketr , and some of the most daring of them scale the parapet end threw themselves into the work, where they were killed or taken prisoners.

While the foreign legion, the 98th, and the 49th, energetically commanded by Lieut. Colo- nel Martineau Deschesnes, were repulsing the enemy, two companies of the lat regiment of voltigeurs of the Imperial Guard, who were in reserve in the second parallel, resolutely rushed forward, under the command of Ca tain Genty, and threatened the right Bank 0 the enemy. A company of the 10th battalion of foot chas- seurs, and two companies of the 80th regiment of the line, under Chef-dc-Bataillon dc Courson, joined in this movement, which so nobly marked the débfu of the Imperial Guard amongst us. A battalion of the 43d, under Commandant Jeannin ros, stopped another Russian column, whic was endeavouring to descend from the Flagstaff Bastion.

The artillery of the place supported the as- sailants by a continue ﬁre, but. our batteries opened in their turn, and in the end prevailed over the ﬁre of the enemy. At length, after seve- ral vain andfruitless assaults, the Russiansdeoi- (led on makinga retreat, which the elfected, leaving the ground covered with t eir dead. This brilliant aﬁair conﬁrmed our p0S"oSSI0ll of the work. Our losses in the twenty-four hours amounted to eleven ollicers killed, amongst whom, in addition to Colonel ‘vienot, was Commandant Julien, of the itith, an oﬁicer much distinguished in the army for his bra- very; we had in all 22 oliicers wounded, and 159 men killed and 600 wounded. A short suspension of hostilities, the conditions of which were previously agreed o.i between Gene- ral Count Osten-Sacken, the goiernor of Sebas- topol and myself, took place yesterday, in order to bur ' the dead.

This doub c combat, of which '1 now furnish you with the details, is characterized in the most satisfactory and honorable manner by the qualities of ardour and impetuosity which are peculiar to our troops. Never did they give more striking proofs of courage. I owe par- ticular nraise to the generals and superior oﬁcers charged with the direction of these brilliant aliairs, particularly to General de Salles, who, under the orders of General Polis- sier, prepared during the day with much skill and precision the operations which he executed in the night.

This success has advanced us at one bound 150 yards towards the central bastion, and has produced a great inﬂuence on the spirit of the two armies.

The sanitary state of the troops is excellent; their energy is unequalled; their situation is perfect in every respect, and they are well supplied with eve_rything.—Accept, &..

New York, August 3, I852.

lllr. aml Mrs. Williams, No. 248, Seventh street, testify that they have both been suffering with the liver complaint for about five years, during which time they have spent a large amount of money, and tried main remedies, but to no purpose. Finally, heuringo Dr. M'l.ane‘s Pills, they purchased four boxes, which they took according to the directions accompanying each box ; and now pronounce them- selves perfectly cured of that distressing disease.

Wednesday, June 18, 1855.

In givin insertion to the farewell address to the Ben. . M. Hall, and his answer, we but perform a part of our duty, though a melancholy one, for independently of the regret which we andall who were acquainted with him, must - rsonally feel at the departure of an upri ht

independent gentlemen and most agreea le friend and companion, we cannot conceal from ourselves, nor, if we would, from others. that the Island, that society is sustaining a rest loss b the exodus of the amiable, talente and weslt y families that has within these few months taken lace. In- large and extensive countries dansey peo led, individual families may come and go, an are welcomed or regret- ted by a. larger or smaller circle of friends and acquaintances, but in Prince Edward Island the loss of such a man as John Myrie lloll is se- verely felt. If there is one waiitamongst as greater than another, it is that ol'mcn of cap- ital, intelligence and energy who are willing to devote themselves to the iiiiprovement of the soil, and to show practically what may be done when men are in earnest and furnished with the requisite means. This Mr. lloll has done and not only this, he has set an example in bringing up his sons to this noble and most respectable of all ciillings, which we trust will be more extensively followed. When the Island shall have, and we trust the day is not far‘dis- tant, a well educated, independent body of country gentlemen residing on their own estates and maintaining themselves by their produce, there will not be a colony or state, its superior in North America, but in order to arrive at this, we must have more men of Mr. lloll's way of thinking and endowed with his means. While we ,regret this genl.leman‘s departure, we cannot help indul ing in the he s. that ere long we shal see him again. le has left hostages in the persons of his sons, who we doubt not will prove worthy of their sire. Wherever he may go. he will be welcome, for when sterling integrity and sterling good hu- mour are joined in the same person, the posses- sor is sure to acquire both the respect and esteem of any people among which his lot may be cast. 4‘. ilr. lIoll’s political character we shall say nothing, the events in which he has ta- ken a share,are of too recentdate to permit them to be canvassed with that impartiality, which is only brought about by time.

NOTES BY THE WAY. (Continued.)

In our last communication published in IIaszard’s Gazette of May 19th, we left our readers to prepare for the journey to St. John. New Brunswick, by stage ; about 6; o’clock, the courier from Halifax came into Monckton and deposited some half-dozen immense bags of News- papers weighing nearly 2cwt. each on King's steps, and with the remainder of his load pro- ceeded to the Post Ollice. here he left any mails for the eastern shore of New Brunswick, Mira- michi, Richibucto, &.c. , and received the return mails to be forwarded to St. John. Tea was hurried through and we found another driver packing the wagon tor the trip toSt. John. “ Surely those immense bags are not going to be our companions all the way to St.Jo u“ said we to the driver. “ Not the only ones, ” said be, there are three passengers and their baggage besides.” If that be the case thought we, our prospectof gettingln to St. John much before the steamer t at would leave the next evening would be but slight; we were booked however, and we were bound to do our, The immense bags alluded to were 'these‘ ofthe Quebec English Mail, which had arrived at Halifax 011' the previous Monday; the rate

they were then travelling would hardly bring them to their destination in less than a week. Surely this long land route is neither the cheapest nor the quickest that could be de- vised? We learned in St. John, that the New Brunswick mails usually arrive in the sonic way, unless some inﬂuential Merchant is coming along, and brings them via Windsor across the Bu of Fundy.

"o resume; the bags were stowed, the lug- gage strapped on, we seated ourselves as we best could among the mails and lu gage, and drove oil as fast as four horses coul carry us, over lialf-frozen roads, this it may be conjec- tured with such a loaded wagon was none of the fastest. We found the road for the ﬁrst 30 miles exceedingly bud, and during the night it was in no way improved by a fall ofsnow some three inches deep;as we came nearer St. John,the roads improved considerably. Several bridges had been carried away by recent froshets, and we had to be ferried over, which detained us some time, so that we did not got to St. John until four o'clock. aftera ride of 21 hours. The farming district ‘of Sussex Vale was passed at night. There is little else to be seen on this route, until within a few miles of St. John, when the majestic river skirted by banks precipitous in some places, and undulating in others, make with its lakes and branches a peculiarly grand and striking picture.

He however de- termined to continue, as he had some business, he said to do in St. John. The man whose duty it was to drive the Stage into St. John took his seat and drove us to llammond Ferry. Here our former driver and the two passengers, whilst preparations were being made to cross the Ferry. procured such additional potations as to make them almost unmanageable, and soon after, the Bend driver insisted upon hav- ing the reins—'l‘o contend wit him was to en anger the wagon, and to let him drive was almostequully dungerous—for the road in some

laces is very precipitous. The St. John driver thought it best to let him have the reins,

The remaining passenger and myselfinanaged to keep the other inebi-i- ates as quiet as possible, and during the last stage they and the driver were nearly all the time asleep, until we arrived at St John. The trip occupied 21 hours and we were truly thankful when we were ensconced in our hotel. For several hours we were in imminent danger of our lives, besides the disagreeable- ness of riding with people intoxicated. We have travelled this road repeatedly, and have found that it required the greatest care on the part of the driver to carry us safely through.

On the 4th of June, Mrs. Stewart, the beloved wife of Deacon Peter Stewart, ofNew Perth, in the 61st year of her age. Throughout her long and severe aiiliction, she exhibited the submission and the fortitude of the Christian, and under all circumstances manifested complete resignation to the will of God, and great patience under suffering. She lived a Christian, and cheerfully yielded up her spirit into the hands of it kind Saviour, whose love was her richest trepsare, whose word was her unfailing foun- tain of strong consolation, and to whose glorious ad-

vent she looked forward with exulting triumph.

csca n certainly as it was we were greatly jeopardized, in consequence of the iquor-drinking on the road. The more we travel and the more we see, the more ﬁrmly are we convinced that stringent regulations are necessary to protect the sober portion of the community an particularly females from the evil effects that are engendered by the continuance of the liquor traﬁic, and in our opinion no more effectual way of preventing accidents and protecting the public, can be gsed, than the enactment of a Maine Liquor w.
