SEBASTOl'OL NOT TA A'EX. Sweaborg Not Destroyed Wo have news from Kurope to the Pth of Srpl. From the war there is nothing of im. portaiice. No further fighting has taken plnco at Sebastopol. Tho allied parallels before the south side wero completed on tho lHlli Aug., but no bombardment has vet tn- ken place. It is stated that Geii. Todttc - ocn, who is still ulivc, has just completed n work called tho Fort of tho Holy Cross, aimed with guns of tho heaviest caliber, which completely commands tho MnlukolT. Tho Turkish Wuiirlcriiiustcrtjciiorul. n ho was wiih Omer Pasha iu the Crimen, speaks in Ilia highest terms of tbo new system ef fortification introduced by the Russians. l!en. Mulnikolf has fortified the space be tween the first and second lines of defenso by menns of mines, trenches, covered ways, palisades, und small redoubts. Between l't. Paul and Bastion I. ho has constructed Works which so command tho Malakoll" tow er and Kornilofl' bastion that tho Allies would not be able to maintain tbem even if they obtained possession of them. In cm. sequence of tho improvements mnde by the uussians iu meir lortiiications, Uen. 1 elis sier has ken obliged lo make some nllcra tion in his plau of operation. The losses on both sides aro enormous- the English losing 00 men a night, aud I lie French 100 men a night, in keeping their position. English accounts represent iho Russians as suffering severely for waut of provisions, but tins is very doubtful. Tho news of tho destruction of Sweaborp;, brought by tho lastsloamor, turns out to bo untrue. It seems that nothinz was effected beyond the blowing up of some magazines, not properly constructed ; tho burning ol some buildings and the destruction of n con siderable amount of property ; and that the torts and other works of defense are in as good, or nearly as good, condition, as when iho Allies began the bombardment. The Uussians did not anticipate an attack from gun boats, and hence left somo points un guarded, trusting to the shallowness of the water. Gen. Do Berg, who commands at SwmWg, has been decorated with tbo or der of St. Andrew. r rom the war there is nothing of great importance, tiiougli much that is highly in foresting. At Scbastopol Ihe only imme diate in lica'ioiioftho long-expected assault upon the Malakoll and lledan is tho oi en ing of fire upon them on the 1 7th ult. It was continued throughout the day, and the oiitci produced was as much ns was anttci pnted. The Russian fire, which at first nn. swered briskly, became by evening feeble. Ihe British loss was 138. We are told, oho, that the Engli.-h advances nro within sixty yards of the Kussian outworks, while tho French on tho ridit of the MulukofT are within thirty yard. Indeed, if we inny judge by n dispu'eh from Gon. Pellissier, they are still nearer, for he informs us that on iho 124th ult. they captured a Russian ambuscade on tho very glacis of tho Mala. koff and turned it against the fortress. Meanwhile tho slaughter in the works daily very largo. The English say that they alone lose sixty men every day ou the average. Ufthe battle of the Chcrnaj'a,or as it is now called the battle of Traktir Dridgo, (ought on Aug. 19, we have detailed no counts in tho correspondence of tho Loudoi journals, the best of which, that of The Da'dij AI'iM, is transferred entire to our columns. Reports have also been received from tho allied commanders. Tbey say the Kussian attack was a deliberate ellort to raise the siego of Scbastopol, and if tho Rus sians had succeeded in holding iho bights on the Allies' side of tho river, they intend ed further to attack the Allies from four points, namely: a ma:n attack on Balaklava, another on the British Camp, and another simullancottsly on the extreme right and lettot the rrench lines. Documents found on the body of a Russian general indicate this. Gen. Simpson estimates tho Russian forces at 55,000 infantry and 0,000 envoi ry, with 100 guns. The French had only 12,000 men and four batteries engaged. The Sardinians had 4,500 men and 24 guns engaged, while the English had only one battery in play. Uen. oimpson says the Russians advanced three times with tho most aetermined bravery. Thrice they carried the bridge and crowned the bights, but were thrice driven back. Uen. I'ellissier, calls tbo French loss 17 officers killed and 53 wounded, 172 men killed, 150 missing, and 1,160 wounded. The Sardinian loss was 250. Tho loss of tho Russians was 3,000 killed and 5,000 wounded, including 1,600 wounded nnsonors in the hands of ihe French and 200 in the hands of the Sardiaians. The Turks were not engaged. The Russsian report admits great losses and three generals killed. It attributes the loss to the too great impetuosity of the right columns of attack. The Russian troops en gaged had just arrived in the Crimea. Priuce Gortschakoff commanded in person from the Mackenzie Nights. In this battle it is plain that Pelissicr was taken by surprise, and that but for the im portant aid rendered by tho Sardinian artil- cry the trench might have fared very bad ly. Indeed, such is the opinion nt Paris, where people do not regard him with admi ration just at present. With respect to the Russians it is equally notorious that in this instance they maintained their long standing reputation, and were beaten according to the rule which prevails whenever they come in contact with European troops. The same svsU in which ihey tried at Inki rmann with such fatal results was here experiment ed upon ain. Dense masses of men wero (lung upon the enemy a if to overwhelm I him by idieor quantity of weight, but on ' these musses lliu Knnliuinii urtillerv. which . 1 . . . - . . took them in the flunk, and the rifles of the Zjtmvcs did the moot murderous execution, ami they were obliged to yield. 'I'lio same absence of generalship, and of all maiiuuvois calculated to facilitate the struggle mid ns Hiiro tho desired victory was conspicious here Hint lukermuiiii. The men fought bravely but tho incapacity of their commander ren dered their courage vain. Indeed, while we incline to njjreo with nn opinion which a Brusscl journal attributes to Outer JWlm, wo must extend its application. According to this authority "Onier IVhn freely x pressed himself nt Constantinople that the ' ""iC ' commanders especially Gen. Tclis woro humbugs, and that ho should twice have 'ost his army if ho had followed ' ",0'r advice." This is very probably true, but the Kussian eonerii; aro nuito as much humbugs as their opponent. Omer, by the way, is going with his army to Asia, to tichttheroitg.iiiiMt the llussiuns, now unler Muiavie(Tbjsic"in Kars. The Hti-K'. Tho bloody episodo of tho fc'ht of Trak tir seems likely to h.ivo lit'.lo effect on tin eouri-e of events in tho Crimea. Tho Rus sinus have retired up their narrow and well fortified paws to tho steep plateau, where according to (Jen. Simpson's latent report they nro onco more prepared Tor olleiisive movement. Attention is, therefore, again turned to the siege of Scbastopol. Little on which a judgment may be founded can be learned cither from the despatches of the generals or from tho correspondence of let ter writers before the city. To our previous knowledge Hint Ilia besiegers sap had ap proached very near to the Russian defeases, wo now Irani that tho foremost parallel, which has been begun at tho two ends, was completed and united in tho middle, on tho 18th of August. Since then a fortnight bos passed without much incident. Gen. Simpson mentions a small sortio in which tho Russians succeeded in destroying some gabions. For tho rest tho daily lifo of tho camp, its hardships and amusements, tho death or lenve of individual oflicers.fill both public and private letters. On tho great preparations of the Inst ten woeks the hopes of the besiegers aro fixed, and tho firo that will open when tho time comes will bo un exampled iu the history of warfare. The cnnnonaile of October last, (says tho London Times,) was trifling to that of April; April was surpassed by tho two days which preceded tho capture of the Mamelon ; but all will sink into insignificance with the iron tempest which will shortly bo poured on tho besieged city. Tho weight nnd range of the guns, tho number and size of the mortars, the new positions of the bat teries won by tho steady progress that has marked the summer, will try tho endurance of the Russians to tbo utmost. The great scnlo on which such a bombardment is car ried on, and the preparations necessary for its execution, render the delays which pre cedo it a matter of littlo surprise. In April the Allies threw against Scbastopol, in nino days, 550,000 shot nnd shell tho cost of tho British ammunition alono was .100,- 000 sterling 1 Vet April is now looked bock upon as a time when wo undervalued the ncmy nnd did not know what Scbastopol was. . Jven on ordiunry days tbo Kussmns often throw 4,000 shot in the 24 hours and GOO shells into only one portion of tho Brit ish position. Whatever the resources of the garrison and the strength of tho works at which they labor uight and day, there can bo no doubt that tho approaching strug gle wilt determine tho fato of Sebastopo for the winter nt least. No one can pretend to foretell the issue ; nil that is spoken of with certainty is, that the Ime of-battlo ships in tho harbor will bo destroyed, or nt least driven lioin their position, so as to be made powerless against tho assaulting troops. Whether tho beseigers shall take tho Ma- lakoff whether they can keep it whether it will lead to the immediate capture of the town, or only to ulterior success, are nil matters of doubt. Should victory not fa vor tho bcisiegei'8' arms they will probably bo forced to wait in inactivity till another pnng, when change pf tactics may assure success, iue besieging uenorals hnvo set all on the hazard of a doubtful struggle nt a single point, and wo must await the result. Ihe Russians, meantime, nre actively en gaged in bridging the harbor, to romovo their defense to tho north slue, should tho south bo taken. The evils of a divided command aro raoro and more felt. The lino from liai.lar to Inkermnnn, a distance of twelve miles, is oc cupied by French, Sardinians, and Turks, w ith part of tho linglish cavalry each na tionality under its own commander, and to tally independent of all the others. Report speaks vaguely of a plan to unito the com mands of all the troops on the Chcrnnya in one hand. As six weeks, or at most two months, nre the utmost limit that can be assured for active military operations, attention is turn ed to the means of supplying tho armies (Hiring me coming winter, air. ucarty,civii engineer, has received orders to construct two new lines of Railway, ouo to bo worked by horse-power, and the other by locomo tive. Stores and sheds nre being erected as rapidly as possible, and other preparations for winter are going on with energy. The following is tho latest despatch from Gen. Simpson : Aug. 25. ''The enemy have been con central ing troops nt the Mackenzie, Tusova, and Karales, their h ft extending ns far as the village of Mukoul, and are supposed to have received considerable reinforcements. The bridge across the great har bor is nearly completed, and large bodies of men nro employed in erecting earth works on tho north side. Intretichinents hare been thrown up on the Severnaya Hill, extending from the sencoast to the site of the first lighthouse, facing the north. "From various sources we learn that the Russians on ihe right bank of the Chcrnnya are held in perfect readiness for an offensive movement. "Our siego operations progress steadily, with, I regret to say, heavy ciuuullies on our side." Sui'T. 1. Prince GortschukofT briefly says : "Tho firo of the enemy continues as before. Thero is nothing new." Pelissicr, of the samo dale, telegraphs : "All goes well ; everything advances. Wo aro making progress. A Hamburg paper says that Gortschakofi" writes from Scba-tupol that the fortifications hnvo greatly mill-red, aud that the garrison has experienced considerable losses.

Intelligence from Asia Minor is said to bo more I'avorublo to the Turks. According to a Turkish bulletin, the Russians advnnccd on tho 4ih of August against the intrench- menl of Kars, and attacked a batlory. An artillery fight ensued, which lasted two Hours, nnd ihe Kussmns retired, leaving 11)11 dead. Allowing for exaggeration, it would seem that no general attack had been at tempted.

Tho Paris correspondent of the Xullonul IiiUlliytnctr, in bis letter' of tho 27th ult., says : "It is now tiuixcrsally admitted here in private that the allnir of the lOlh. on the Tchernnya, has been egrcgiotisly magnified in the PrenclFoflicial dispatches, and tho re newed bombardment of the 17th, 18th, 1 0th, nnd 20th most unduly diminished in importance by the samo medium. Iu the former nllair tho Russians woro certainly repelled, nnd with loss, but not disastrous ly, as this Government pretends. And as for the bombardment, nil now admit (but privately, of course) its renl and sinister significance as a failure to effect tho hoped for breach, and serve ns a prelude to another grand attack on Malakoll. 1 hat attack seems now indefinitely postponed, ltis the conviction that, during the last ten days, the electric telegraph, the JJomlcur, and even tho imperial pen itself, in tho letter to Gen. I'ehsster, have been conspiring to pre vent a cloud from darkening the fin-ground while Queen Victoria was in Fiance llint has caused tho painful depression and misgiving that are now observable on the public mind. The bombardment ceased on tho 20th, nnd the French authorities, both hero nnd in the Crimen, have been nuito silent upon tho sub ject since tho notice of the 22d." f3T In San Francisco on the 16th Oct, Oregon Flour brought $9 50 per bbl. tTThe Musical Enigma next week.
