NOTICES TO CORRESPONDENTS. 
RACING. 
n It. V .— Para is not in the Oaks. 
Tililiiill . — No hot. 
•V. i J —The practice Is Inconvenient, and should bo avoided. There 
ore already several horses named Alma, and it is not unlikely that wo 
may have a Boloklava or tw o, Sebastopol will be sure to follow, but 
the first chiimnut ought to have the sole riychtto the appellation. Five 
years ago we had at least a dozen Jenny Llmls in trahaue. 
.'J II. (L\irh,h ). — You lose. 
M. M — Botli Lord Glasgow's horses were struck out on Monday. 
■1 Lilir/joul .Snl.xnlicr — Wo cannot afford you the required infor- 
mation ; you will have to write to the Ciei k of the Course. 
Hmlrnch. — E. wins. 
.Mcrri/lhinig/il . — Your idea is sincularJy obtuse. 
L. I). - German. 
A LOrcr . — The horse was not scratched. 
Outturn . — The mecon Saturday has nothing to do with your bet. 
( 'it m briiljj cv h ire. No ; a colt. 
•V- -V— Not the same horse. 
Hobs ill . — Scherz is by 'I lie Provost, nut ofFrcudo. 
A'. .1/. !■’ ( l.irer/itml ). — Fifty to one is obtainable. 
'J'nlilcl. — Unknown to us. 
Niche . — You win. 
6’. ./.—Refer to last week's papor. 
AQUATIC. 
II. 1 - C .— Tho " Anglesey Club " is the proper orthography; not 
" Anglesea " — “y,” not “ a." 
J. ( linn. m a'. ) -T he Harwich Club meet on the first Saturday in every 
month ; hut their library, and other rooms, are open throughout tho 
year. Their Vice-Commodore, when in London, will answer any 
further questions, If addressed “ A. Arcedeckne, Esq., Garrick Club." 
It is, certainly, a very excellent club to join, and its foreign privileges 
are very numerous— more than those of tho B.T.Y.C. 
11 I . I . C ( Hull , )— There are two yacht club-houses In Dublin Bay, 
and one at Cork also, but none at Belfast. Yachting is certainly on 
_ flic increase in Ireland, and wo rejoice at the fact. 
•S'. M . — There is a Royal Ynelit Club in Canada. Wc expect the next 
mail will bring us the list of yachts, <fcc., which wc shall have pleasure 
in publishing. 
A'. — Send us the report of tho rowing-match, and wo will gladly find 
room for it. 
MASONIC. 
S. X.—XVc see no objection to givo a list of the Lodges with which have 
been associated Masonic Rules for several years past. We believe the 
following to be correct Enoch, No. ll ; Globe, No. Temple 
No. 1 IS ; Prudent Brethren, No. ICO; Old Concord, No. 2 1; St! 
Andrew, No. 2S1 ; anil Yarborough, No 112. 
An Organist . — Wo agree with you that the appointing Brother Ransford 
grand organist, by tho W.G.M , is one of those anomalies that will 
exist in all societies ; certain positions go by favour. Brother Rans- 
ford is, no doubt, a very good moral man but it can never make him an 
organist, seeing that he is not an instrumentalist, although he has 
been a singer of much reputation. 
•£■ D. — You had belter study the book of Constitutions. 
MISCELLANEOUS. 
J. S '. -The French and English forces were on the right bank of tho 
river Alma, the Russians on the left bank. The English crossed from 
the right to the left bank during the action of October 20. 
.V. — Must consult a solicitor. 
I . T. T. (1)— The London (Licet le is published on Tuesday and Friday, 
nnd appears in the evening papers of those days ; but, under circum- 
stances, the Duke of Newcastle promises to issue extraordinary 
ilnci thi on those or other days. You may expect one in the coming 
week. (2.) Despatches are ten duys from Balaklava to Downui '- 
street. ° 
ANSWERS TO INQUIRIES. 
Michael Ney enlisted in the Hussars iu 17S7, at eighteen years of age, 
and in nine yearn roscfromlhe ranks to a brigadier-general. In 1804 
he was created a marshal, and was denominated by the army “ the 
bravest of tho brave.'’ If a man rises from the rank of private soldier 
in a cavalry regiment to that of a great general, what else can he be 
considered other than a cavalry officer?

SATURDAY , OCTOBER 28, 1854. 
NEWS OF THE WEEK. 
rpHE bombardment of Sebastopol is stated by Princo 
J- Menschikoff to have commenced on the 17th iust., when, 
according to the Prince, five hundred Russians were put 
hors de combat. When a Russian general, addressing his 
sovereign, admits so much, there is very fair reason for be- 
lieving that the damage done by the first day's fire was most 
disastrous to the defenders. But, up to the time we write, 
no official news of the commencement of the attack has been 
received in England, though it is hourly expected. The cor- 
respondence of tho daily journals made it probable that 
Monday, the 16th, or Tuesday, the day mentioned by the 
Prince, would see the terrible work begun. Ten days from 
that date would, of course, bring us to the present timo ; and, 
therefore, if Lord Raglan's original estimate of the period 
which would be required for the reduction of Sebastopol 
prove correct, wo have as yet no right to look for finaljnews. 
On tho other hand, the tremendous power of the guns which 
the Allies have been getting into position have impressed 
several writers from tbe scene with the conviction, that a few 
hours of such a fire as was to be opened upon the place 
would suffice to render defence impossible. 
A very interesting letter from the heights before Sebas- 
topol, dated the 13th of tho month, appears iu the Morning 
Chronicle, and this is the very latest tidings which 
have been published. In the absence of still more exciting 
news, a biivf extract from this despatch will bo more upon Hume, tbe historian, and pointed out his deficiencies 
welcome than any speculations. The writer, a military 
man, states that the sixteen days which had elapsed 
Biuco the arrival of the Allies had been well employed 
"This delay," he says, “has, it is true, been profitable to tho" 
enemy, who has industriously worked night and day j u 
giving strength to the vulnerable south side of .Sebastopol 
On our arrival before the town a fort mounting fifteen g (ln 
alone defended the approach, whilst at the present moment 
numerous batteries (together seventy-six guns of heavy 
calibre) menace our lines. In addition to this, the march 
downwards of the numerous Russian reinforcements ] Jas 
been considerably shortened, and nt this very moment a 
powerful army may have concentrated in our rear. But 
these advantages, though important, are far surpassed by 
those which have accrued to the Allies iu the same period 
The siege-train waits alone to be placed in position to silence 
tbe fire of the mushroom Russian batteries ; whilst the 
destruction or capitulation of Sebastopol can be asserted 
without boasting, to be but a question of time. Success 
appeal's not only certain, but easy beyond expectation ; y e t 
Lord Raglan, with admirable and characteristic caution, has 
ordered works to be constructed to the rear of the present 
position, where the army could retire in case of any unfore- 
seen calamity, and defy all attempts of the Russians to reap 
advantage of their temporary success." This writer adds 
that it is generally considered that twenty -four hours' steady 
firing from all our guns will destroy the entire place re- 
doubts, ships, batteries, and all. 
Lord Raglan received information that an attempt to fire 
tbe town and shipping was meditated by the inhabitants of 
Balaklava, under tbe instigation of the authorities of Sebas- 
topol. His lordship, therefore, very properly ordered tho 
immediate expulsion of all the inhabitants of the port. These 
are all Greeks. They made, of course, an extreme dis- 
turbance at being thus extruded ; but the consideration of 
tbe frightful loss which the act of half a dozen fanatics 
might have inflicted, made hesitation out of the question. 
The account given by the Chronicles correspondent of the 
position of the allied forces will be acceptable, and will facilitate 
the tracing of tbe operations upon the map. “ The British oc- 
cupy the centre and right. To the extreme right is encamped 
the Second Division (General Sir de Lacy Evans), leaning 
towards the mouth of the Chernaya; to its left is the First 
Division (Duke of Cambridge), having again on its left flank 
the Light Division (Sir George Brown). Tbe Light Division 
leans on the high road which connects the harbour of Sebas. 
topol with Balaklava. The Fourth Division (Sir G. Cathcart) 
lies to the left of the Light Division ; and with the Third 
Division (Sir Richard England) the British lines terminate. 
The French main strength extends from here to the coast. 
A French division is posted to the rear of the British, to 
cover the army from any attack in that direction. Vis-u-vis 
to this division, occupying the heights which command the 
road from Belbek, lies the Turkish contingent The British 
cavalry is stationed between tbe above French division and 
Balaklava. The Scots Greys, with Captain. Maud’s troop of 
horse artillery, occupy a position outside of Balaklava.” 
Could any topic divide public interest with, the war at 
this crisis, it would be the news which lias been received 
regarding tbe fate of Sir John Franklin and bis party. The 
worst that imagination had ventured to picture has been 
exceeded in horror. The evidence which has arrived leaves 
no doubt that the unhappy adventurers perished, in 1850, of 
starvation ; and there is fearful reason to believe that some 
of them attempted to stave off the approach of death by tbe 
hideous resource of cauuibalism. Tbe details, upon which 
it is distressing to dwell, will bo found elsewhere. It ap- 
pears that a vessel might be sent, without danger, to examine 
the scene of the fate of the gallant and devoted band, and 
this would finally satisfy public aud private anxiety. After 
that we earnestly hope that the accursed sea will be a Mare 
Clausum, and that not tbe life of another sailor-boy will bo 
risked in the unprofitable and perilous work of exploration. 
There, at least, science has had martyrs enough. 
An early visit is, it seems, to be paid to her Majesty by the 
Emperor and Empress of the French. Our Court is 
expected to leave Windsor for Osborne, after keeping tho 
fourteenth birthday of the Princess Royal, ou the 21st of 
November. Her Majesty will remain at Osborne until tbe 
middle of December, about which time the Emperor and 
Empress are expected. Her Majesty and the Prince will 
accompany their visitors to Windsor, where banquets, balls, 
and concerts are to be given, on a scale of extraordinary 
magnificence. The Elected of the Millions of France will be 
made a Knight of the Garter. Lords Ellesmere, Carlisle, 
and Elgin, will be admitted to tbe same honour. By tho 
way, the Emperor of Russia’s garter is clearly forfeit ; and it 
might not be amiss if the old custom of chivalry should be 
revived in his honour, aud tbe spurs of a recreant knight — 
represented by proxy, if his personal attendance were impos- 
sible — should be struck off by the chopper of a menial. And 
the garter sent over, at no small expense, to the King of 
Prussia some years ago, ought to be returned, Beeing that it 
has failed to imitate tho enchanted ring of the faiiy tale, and 
pinch his Majesty unbearably, by way of hint that be behaves 
unworthily. Tbe State papers which Prussia is now sending 
to Austria are pitiable specimens of mystification. Tho 
latter power seems nearer than ever to a rupture with 
Russia. While ou foreign subjects, it should be added that 
the Queen Dowager of Bavaria expired, from cholera, ou the 
26th, at Munich. 
Speeches by Lord John Russell, at literary institutions nt 
Bristol and Bedford, have created some interest. At tbe pre- 
vious place his lordship entered into a prolonged criticism
