More than 29,000 Mussulmans have lately been enrolled under the British fiag ; British officers erected the for- tifeations of Erzeroum and Kars, and were known to be endangered by the advance of a powerful Russian force. France, with her conscription, has not felt it necessary to pro- vide herself with any soldiers but her own, while her officers have found ample employment in their own army. England : hag laboured to supply the deficiency of her own nambers by a foreien aid, her adventurous officers have borne a part in more than one conflict creditable to the Turks, and she has been ‘closely associated in the minds of every one with the move- ments of the Ottoman armies.

The Moniteur of Thursday contains a copy of the treaty per to make this communication through the same medium, to just contracted between the Allied Powers and Sweden. | ‘he latter Power engages not to cede to, nor to exchange with, Russia either tervitory, pasturage, fishing, or other privileges. The. Allied Powers, in retura, will defend Sweden ugainst Russia. The Borsenhalle states that the treaty concedes tu France and England the privilege of establishing depots and hospitals on Swedish territory. In return, the Western Powers un- dertake to maintain the integrity of Sweden against Russia, should the latter treat the conduct of the Swedes as a breach of neutrality, and declare war. It is believed that a treaty of offensive alliance has. also” been contracted, but if so its provisions will not be made public until the time for active co-operation in the spring. Great arfangements are making in the Baltic ports on English account for victualling aud providing the fleet next spring. : Cuntracts have also heen made in Sweden for the French | fleet, and, it is reported, also for un accompanying army. j | | | ; i j ETWEEN | THE NORTH AND SOUTH FORTS. - | General correspondence from the Crimea states that the Russians on the north side of Sebastopol continue a yery heavy fire against the south side, sometimes nearly all day at the rate of two guns a minute. The Allies reply but little ; their engineers continue at work within the town. The British army is, this winter, over-supplied with equipments. Each man has a water-pruof suit, besides tweed eoats lined with skin, fur caps and cow-hiile boots, and for the officers, suits of sealskin are sold at moderate prices. ‘The French only receive from their Government an ordinary capoto, and must buy any additional wrap they may find necessary.
