This is the statement of the French mid English journal, from which these reports are derived. Immense materials of war fell into the hands of the allies. It iss'ated that the allied Generals have receiv. ed orders todemau the unconditional surrender ol all Russian troops, stores and defences, including O less a . Sugar had advanced Is. Money was more slringen'. The steamer Pacific ajrivednut on the 15 h. TIIIKU UKSPATUH. The intelligence of the fall of Sebastopol was received a' London with extravagant demonstra tions of joy. The fact was officially announced in the theatres and nil public places. Sebastopol was a'tackeri on the morning of the 8: It at four diff rent points. The French under Bosquet assailed the Malakoff, ihe English attack ed the Redan, and a combined force of English, rrench, and Sardinians assaulted the central has lions. All these attacks were made simultane ously, with great energy and spiri'. supported by a terrific cannonade, but the assailants neverthe less, were si times thrown back with terrible slaughter. Finally, however, the divisions of Bosquet and McMahnn succeeded in eflVctin" a lodgm-mt in the MalakofT, and the Russians, find all their efforts In drive them out fruitless, evacu ted) the south side of Sebast opol, destroying eve rytfaing, and leaving nothing b hind. They cros sed the harbor to the north si -e. destroying the bridges behind them. After the capture of ihe Malakoff, Gen. De Sales attempted twice to take the central bastion, but was driven back by the Russians, with frightful loss. General Bosquet, to whom the honors of the day are principally due perUhed in ihe final as sault, the losses of 'he allies were enormous. The following are the despatches relating to this gteai eyen' t General Simpson tel. graphs on the Odi that ih isou:nsiiieoi j km R ' south side of Sebastopol was in the hands uf ihe usians having evacunted the place " lrrCet-,nK evening, after exploding their n"lg,nrs, setting fire to the town, and burning all their ships except three .teauiers. Tbe bridge j communicating with the north side was destroyed by the reiiri.iy Russians. Ihepreneh Minister of War soya : Karabel nata and the suth side of Sevastopol, have ceased I to exist.

The defenders ! ; ol beb isiopol, nfter sustained a fire of ball for 'hree day, and repulsing six assaults, could not drive the enemy from the Malakog Our brave troops resisted to tne last extremity, and the enemy found nothing in Mie southern part of Sebastopol, but blood-stained ruins. The successful assaults tin Sebastopol, was ma e by the divisions of General Bosquet and McMahon. The AHi's were doing great damage along the Sea of Azoff. They had destroyed Russian iner ch.Hnd ze, valued at sever millions. The latest despatch relative to Sebastopol is dated al Farts on Saturday, and states ihat twenty five thong. ml Allies bad left Ri'akbiva for the north side Sebastopol, and that the Russians were in full retreat. Other accounts however, state that the Russians were in possession of all the forls on ihe norih side, and that the fleets could not enter the harbor until Fort Consiantine was reduced.
