Tbe French Empress. The London Presa thus speaks of ihe Empress : The sight of the beaming looks around her, tha sound t( 'he countless cheers of welcome, the fineness of the weather, the thorough cordiality of the v cp'ion from the people at large, and an exulting sense of the greatness of the august oc c3ii .n, brought a flush of pleasure into the coun leaance ol the Empress, and as she drove slowly 0 pa! Mull her beauty never looked more dazzling, and its resplendent effect was huled with universal adiTiira'ion. It was a constant remurk, The I cures hid not done justice to the Empress." We are decidedly of thit opinion. The expres sion of her mild blue eyes, and the sweet serenity (I l.er l"ce in repose, has never been perfectly portraved. '"he artists appear to us to have suc d in catching only the physical outline, and l die sentiment of her most peculiar and dis- ;tive style of beauty. We admit the merits of Wir.'erh liter's portrait, but it h is t!ie coldness of German school, and we can conceive what an iLCompariibly finer presentment ol such a face i r hivebcen L''v(n on the Canvass4y Ray bold, j or Lawrence, or Francis Grant. It is rar.'lv that , . . ' r i I - ; M distmft.ve a type is seen in lemale beauty as in the French Empress. She belongs to one of the rarest of all styles, th it of the Spanish blonde. Stamped by nature s ! impress, there is an unmistakeable evidence of ! Il.iud .n Iipt refined and spiritual face. Extremely lair, with gentle blue eyes, and a charming natural color, the Empress Eugenie possesses the nd ci bona I eharm of a most expressive mouth. The c! iical elevation ol her countenance reminds one of the chiselled masterpieces of Grecian art. She has more, however, of ifca outward and visible signs ol high Spanish race in the long and delicate ly drnwa features, and esp' cially in hT noble , Castillmn nir, mi remote from aught (hat is suo. peiivH of vulgir associations.

A telegraph despatch, dated Balaklava, Wednesday evening, received at the War Office at half-past twelve o'clock on Thursday. The delay in the transmission of the message arises from the fact that the electric wires between Cape Kaliacra (where the wire dips into the Black Sen) and Va rna, a distance of twenty miles, are not yet completed, nor, we believe, is the wire carried into BalakUva from St. George's Monas tery. When the telegraph is carried up to head quarters, whence one to the trenches is already laid down, the fiVld fficer in command during the night will, nt the same moment, announce a sortie to Lord Raglun and to the Prime Minister in Diiwning-street.
