C From " WoMert's Roost." BY WSSHIlfOTON IKTINQ. ENGLISH AND FRENCH CJIARACTER, Aa I am a mere looker on in Europe, and hold mvself as much as possible alool from ita quar reU and nreiudices, I feel aomethine like one overlooking a game, who, without any great skill of hia own, can occasionally perceive tbe blunders of much abler players. This neutral tty of feeling enables me to enjoy the contrasts of character presented in this time of general peace; when tbe various people of Europe, who have so long been sundered by wars, are brought together, and placed side by side in this great gathering place of nations. No greater con trast, however, is exhibited, than that of the French and English. Tbe peace has deluged this gay capital with English visitors, of all ranks and conditions. They throng every place of curiosity and amusement; 11 the pub lic gardens, the galleries, the cafes, saloons, thratrea ; always herding together, never asso ciating with the French. The two nations are like two threads of different colore, tangled to gether, but never blended. In facr, they present a continual antithesis, ar .1 Hrem X value ibrmel?e upn being un lik fti'hMlifr; j' eaoh hav. tiieir xculiar m- rit. wlii. h i.uH tntiile tii&m t each oth er's e'.tic tii.

Arriving at Qordon'a Battery, however, I fonnd that firiug was still going on, and that the true would not commence for another nau nour or o. The advanced work of the enemy called the Mamelon, I omitted to mention in ray let ter had opened fire this morning upon the ribtof Gordon's Batterv. It was then only . r i n. 1 : v.u a!ht unng inroe p,"1" ul umy j iimh, uu. others were 'also in Dositibif. Until tbe Rus eians actually unmasked their guns, many of oor officers ased to express tbemselvee cpnnaenuy that they worird never attempt to place any ther, but merely continue it aa an infantry re doubt. But tbe result shows that in this, as in nth.r mt.ttmT- wp have' undervalued our enemv. and the spirit of determinatidn withhlch tbflv nnnear bent on resistibt'tO the last. : After SDehdins a short tinie in GordonV Bat tery, which is in the most perfect state of repair and good order, l preoeeaeo; ny tne sigsaga uu covered ways into the advaooea trench on which the sortie was lateWjnade This, is an advan ced work about 200.yard from tha Mamtlon, about COO yards from tha Malakoff Tower and about 100 yards from the enemy's rifle pits, which are scattered more or leas numerously alone the whole front of tbe allied Tines. - The marksmen in these latter posts are oontinoally on the alert, and keeD everv one else on the alert also. They fire on the slightest sound, or at the most tuning indication of an enemy s presence. In approaching the advanced work by tbe covered ways, some of the angles are nt oessarilv a little open. o that at two Or three turnings glimpses of the caps and heads of our men passing up and down can oe obtainea. un these corners the enemy s rinetnen seem ic concentrate all their vigilance, and though eve rv one naturally stooDS and darts round tnem :is iuick as possible, yet the fix of a ride bullet cloe above generally shows that the sharp shooters have been equally quick and watchful of their opportunity. Several times were the party I was with thus admonished by the ene my to be more careful for tbe future, aad though we bad a very narrow chance from one ballet, which paused near oor heads, we all got to the advanced trench in safety.'

English.- and Russian ofli " cera and soldiers, had toe and were mingled to gether on the apace outside the trenches. It cextainly amadtt extraordinary scene. ,Ev- rything was at-onceso warnxe anu jeiwpL-auc-ful. Grim batteries were frowning down upon the spot from every side, yet the white ag was floating, and tha parapet and embrasures were quite hiddan with people earprly looking down upon the spectacle oeiow. " neu an m ent troops bad met the privates grinning and offering each other pipes the officers bowing n uiAhr. mm if ail ware on the most friend ly terms, and as if in the course of a couple of hours tney wouia not m aoing uioir unwi tn murder and deatrov the very men on both eidee to whom now both sides were so polite, across from our trenches, in the direction of Jia liVr.fr Tiinr. a nn with a white flag was leading a large, fatigue p irty. carrying aome of the enemj'f dead, ttassian iatigue pamea also busy round and inside he French trench, ehffasd intht same melancholy duty; while Am idlera on both aides, of whom there were considerable number, strolled about, picking their way among masses or atone, pieces oi snen, piles of roartd shot, dead Rassians in everv at- ritudB of mortal Bony, torn sana nags, gaoiooa, facines, bayohetBi broken ' firelocks, thousands of ffattehed bullets, unused cartridges, and all the litter of a scene of combat. The Russian officers were well ami neatly dressed in long fine great-coats, white oron belts, and swords. Two or three had qoitaavirofusion of handsome rings on their. finger. All seemed to speak French well j onM were rery friendly and chatty, offcr ing.oar own and the French officers cigars, while others were polite, but very grave and reserved, bowing to the Allied officers when they passed, but.neter. entering into conversation or appear ing to pay the least attention to anything but the duties in which they were immediately en gaged. One Ronsian officer, conversing with a party of ours, said tht tha large 68 pounder in the right of Gordou's battery had done the Mamelon works considerable injury, but they hoped soon to repair it Another asked, with the utmost simplicity, "When the Allies were going away?" the question waa at first not understood, and he repeated it, asking when we intended to raise the siege and leave the Crimea? One of our officers replied that we nevvr intended quitting until Sevastopol was levelled, upon which the Kossian officers smiled, and the same one who had before spoken said there was very little chance of oar doing that. The Russian soldiers were both dirty and ragged, but beyond thia defect in their appearance were well enough. They were very fine young men, and all in robust health, with round ruddy faces, on which was a perpetual grin at everything our men did or said. Their uniform was a short thick great coat of grey friese, with waist belts of the same material, round flat saps, and tight leather boots; in fact, just tbe uniform of the men we fought at Inkermann. None bad the helmet or other equipments pf tbe Imperial Guard.

Impressed with thia notion. I bur ried in without further loitering. a tf of truce were hauled down. I should be left alone in open ground, in the midt of a cross firo from batteries and riflemen of both friends and enemies, a perfectly novel situation doubt less, but one wb:ch also had its own peculiar disadvantage-, I therefore turned up in the direction of oor lines, so as to pass atony i front of our batteries, and came out upon the j Worontow road. The ground over which I passed was rough and very stony, without a sign of vegetation boyond a few violet and cro cuses, here and there. Sometimes it was verv rocky, with pits, quarries, and small cairns of atones the very model of good skirmishing gronnd, but the last one to choose to conduct a soige on. I was quite surprised at the extreme distinctness with which every one of our de fences could be seen by the enemy. From the picket honse in rear of our lines it is only with mufth diftiAultv that onr trenches can be seen blovr us, but from the Russian side the profile of every battery shows clear and sharp upon the bill sides.. As 1 came nearer to our nnes the tokens of the contest and the prodigal man ner in which tbe enemy used their ammunition almost hid the ground. In places where there were hollows in tbe earth,, tbe shot and pieces of shell had rolled into them in such a manner as to auite fill- them level with the surface. a. - . . .. Everywhere in fact, along the whole extent oi oar works, the shot lay in thousands and thou sands, ooveribg the ground in such a manner as to make it seem of a deep brown color. An immense proportion of the Russian shells have never exploded at all, and there they lay just as they issued from the gun. Within about a hundred yards of oar works, the ground is quite cat to pieces by tbe deep shot farrows, while the bails themselves, comine in contact witn others on the ground, have shivered into little fragments in all direction. In the lower parts of the Woronaow road, below Gordon's Battery, the shot and shells have rolled down the hills and almost choked the way After this tour 1 returned on tbe right attack, and waited there still the last stragglers of the enemy bad gained tbe shelter of their lines. Instantly, tbe Russians hauled down their flags ef truoe ; we did the same. The snap shots of the riflemen began on both sides, our right at tack fired a shell, the Mamelon replied, and then everything went on as it has been for tbe last six months ted jvL:-T-Tramilibeioa .;liighworid..-raa5.,i.J tli?l-vVr itsplendid marchn-nigh. tbe I " K " - - ' . ; i . i in . rrnnmiii nummcr j -j j. movements ot the enemy in tbe diHerent uatte- er9 which they brought to carry away their rie.

An Englishman is more reflectivo in bis habits. lie lives in the world of his own thoughts, and seems more self-existent and self independent. He loves tbe quiet nf his own apartment; even a hen abroad, he in a manner makes a littlo solitude around him, by his silence and reserve : he moves about shy and solitary, and as it were buttoned op, body and soul. The French are great optimists: tiiey seise upon every good as it flies, and revel in the passing pleasure. The Englishman is too apt to neglect the present good, in preparing against the possible evil. However adversities may lower, let the sun sbioe but for a moment, and forth sallies the mercurial Frenchman, in holi day dress and holiday spirits, gay as a butterfly, as though his sunshine were perpetual ; but let the eun beam never so brightly, so there be but a cloud in the horizon, the wary Englishman ventures forth distrustfully, with his umbrella in his hand. The Frenchman ha a wonderful facility at turning small things to advantage. No one can be gay and luxurious on smaller means ; no one requires less expense to be happy. lie practises a kind of gilding in bis style of living, and hammers out every guinea into gold Uaf. The Englishman, on the contrary, is expensive in his hakits, and expensive in bis enjoyments. He values every thing, whether useful or orna mental, by what it costs. He has no satisfac tion in show, unless it be solid and complete. fiVery tnmg goes witn mm oy the square toot. Whatever display he makes, the depth is sure to equal the surface. The Frenchman's habitation, like himself, is open, cheerful, bustling, and noisy. He lives in a part of a great hotel, with wide portal, paved court, a spacious dirty stone staircase, and a family on every floor. All is clatter and chatter. He is good humored and talkative with his servants, sociable with his neighbors, and complaisant to all the world. Any body has access to himself and his apartments; his very bed-room is open to visitors, whatever may be its state of confusion ; and all this, not from aay peculiarly hospitable feeling, but from that communicative habit which predominates over his character. The Englishman, on the contrary, ensconces himself in a snug brick mansion, which he has all to himself; locks the front door ; puts bro ken bottles along tbe walls, and spring guns and man traps in his gardens ;. shrouds him self with the tecs and window-curtains; exults in his quiet and privacy, and seems disposed to keep out noise, davligbt, and company. His house, like himself, has a reserved, inhospitable exterior ; yet whoever gains admittance is apt to find a warm heart and warm fireside within. V t.-t ' Jail regard waa paid "to tbe wishes of the mi jtirity aa.ia.that ue;vl'renlted, as all such: convention do, ia nominating a man secondary , in talsnU. prorainpivee and influence, to all tbe other vandidates.'

It i a wsll known fact that convention i seldom represent th Wishes of tbe people, that - they are got ap merely to further party purpo se, .and that aathey heal divisions, calm th disaffected aleot their candidate, and reap the spoils, those who compose them care but little what become of. th people or their rights, un til another election eomes on.

The men in it were laugh ing and chatting in under tones. Very many were wrapped up in their great coats, fast a leep. I walked down the work, looking at th marks which the place presented of the late des perate attack. In one or two places tbe gabions had been almost destroyed, and nearly all the sand-hagi in the parapet knocked away. Those which bad fallen inide had. been replaced. Tfco outside were nearly just as the enemy bad left them. In one part of the trench were tbe bodies of a Russian officer and four men. The officer was the one who so distinguished himself by his determined efforts to force an entrance, and who, at last, unfortunately for himself, succeeded. Outside tbe work, the dead lay thicker, though with those in aod out not more than 150 were there in all. On the right the appearance of the French trench showed that the struggle had been long and bloody. Thia work had almost all been completely de stroyed, and though every effort, during the two nights which have since elapsed, has been made to repair it, it is still in a rather dilapi dated condition. Their gabions had been al most pulled away, and were lying in heaps- in work, as the canvass wa perfectly black with blood. One or two were properly made stretch- ers; tbe rest were strips of oanvass clumsily tied to rough poles of wood. The bodies of nearly all of the slain were those of fine young men. One man in particular was of almost gigantic stature. He wa an Albanian, and lay upon his face with a hammer tightly grasped in one hand, while at hi side waa a small leather pouch, filled with the steel spikes used for spi king guns. Two among tbe slam were not sol diers, but wore the dress of the lower order of Levantine Greeks, and were evidently taken from the inhabitants of Sevastopol. Whether the were volunteers, or whether, from want of men, th Russians bav been compelled to press the towns-people into their service, it is difficult to say. Between 300 and 400 dead lay about the i rencb works, and it waa soma time before they were all collected together ints on ghastly heap, a little in advance of the parallel. Une man was still alive. His thigh aeemed badly frao tured, and he had remained thus for two whole daya and nights on tbe spot where be fell, close in sight of friends and enemies. Tha Russian non-commissioned officer atten ded tbe removal of th bodies, and for some re' son or other perpetual altercations took place over them, certain fatigo parti claiming two or three corpse apparently a belonging to them, while others aeemed to dispute their right io-tuoit. Borne oi iuch altercation were Joua Iront of the work, and in n long train up to the j and long, and bad to be settled by th interfer Mftlftkoff Tower, just as .the Russians had '; ence of a superior officer. The non-com mission- thrown them away in their flight. The enemy' j ed officers stood a little from the feet of the long dead were here ia serious numbers in front- of i rows of dead, and called forth the fatigue par- iv work. 2t iui iw were owsiue. - nnu i tis in regular soocaasion. srhsn niwh nnintad nearly as many more inside , the trench. The French troops were now in strong force at this post, probably between five and six thousand, and many offioers were there, both English and French, waiting till the flag of truce should be raised to cross the trench and survey the ene my's work. Tbe time was to be between half-pat twelve and two ; yet it was now past one, and no signs of it appeared; on the contrary, the French and Russian riflemen, from their respective conceal ments, were firing away pretty sharply. A gun also was fired from the Malakoff Tower, arid went hissing through the air over Gordon's Battery, but an instant afterwards a white flag was hoisted on tbe Mamelon, which was replied to by one in the advanced trench. A few mo ment afterwards and all the batteries had white flags flying, while a body of Russian sol diers, 1,500, or 2,000 strong, straggled out from tbe rear of the Malakoff Tower, and began de scending the bill towards tbe middle ravine. Stretchers were then brought up and the word f iven to our men to carry out the bodies of tbe ead Russians who lay inside the trench, and the rest of the men, who were watching tbia signal, instantly swarmed over the breast-work, and began looking about tbem like boy- out ot school.

Th faults of these opposite temperaments are. that th vivacity of the French is apt to sparkle up and I frothy, the gravity of the English to settle down and grow muady. When the two characters can be fixed in a medium, the French kept frttn ef fervescence and the English from stagnation, both will b found excellent. This contrast of character may also be no ticed in the great concerns of tha two nations. The ardent Frenchman is all for military re nown: he fights for glory, that is to say, for suc cess in arms. For, provided th national flag be viotorions, he cares little about the expense, the injustice, or the inutility of the war. It is wonderful how th poorest Frenchman will re vel on a triumphant bulletin; a great victory is meat and drink to bim ; and athe eight of a military sovereign ..bringinghome captored can non and captured standards, he throws up bis greasy cap in th air. and ia ready to jump out of bis wooden shoes for joy. John Bull, on tbe contrary, is a reasoning, consider! persdn. If hdoe wrong, it is in the most rational way imaginable. II fights because the good of the world require it. , fl ia a moral person, and .make war noon hi neighbor for tbe . maintenance of - peace and good order, and raoond rinoiple. ' He is a money-making personage; and. fight for ;the prosperity of com mere aid manofacturea, abqs tne two nation bar Jbeen fighting, time were fired, and every one walked about aa he pleased. I crossed with tbe rest, and advanced beyond the middle ravine, almost to the foot of the small steep slope on which the Mamelon is erect ed. As this work is likely soon to figure rather importantly in our future proceedings, I survey ed it with much curiosity and interest. View ed in connection with our chances of captaripg Sevastopol, the inpression which it produced on my mind was anything but favorable. It isas 1 have said, a Btcep rooky eminence, about a mile in circumference at the base, and about a quarter of a mile at top. Its average height from our advanoed parallel is at least 100 feet, its distance from it about 300 yards, and ita distance from the Malakoff Tower nearly double that. Seeing, therefore, that it is nearer to our works than the Russians, your readers will doubtless ask with surprise why the allies never occupied it themselves, especially as its summit entirely command every part of tbe works round the Malakoff Tower. But thia ia a question which no on can answer and much more surpriss i felt about our rmianeas in this particular her in camp, where th importance of the position is fully appreciated, than is ever likely to b ax el ted at horn. Th only- reason that I bar heard assigned V that the -place ws never thought of, antil th enemy began to fortify it, and that then, after the failure of th French at tack, it would not have been wis to tienisvsM farther. I The work, however, mast be stormed. w, ucivrr uj senous attempt to at- town iiu caa nt noagnt osr Wbe out certain "bodiea, and after aome conversation rook them away, when other stood forward in their turn. We were for some time at a loss to understand part of this proceeding, especially when the altercations took place, but at last came to the conclusion that each reeiment had sent a burying party for it own dead, and that, therefore, the aforesaid party had a direct in- . l. . -1-: r i uiFeai in tuiug m lew a posaiDie. fi tt nit in is uiaeous aistnoauoc ot bodies was going forward, amid such a scene I walked away from the trench in th direction of the Malakoff Tower, until mid-way between it and our ad . i ii . raucea wora, wuioa wa a close a it was pru dent to go ; even though a true wa existing, neither party, of course, would allow th other to examine its line minutely. Still I waa enabled to get within a vary reasonable distance of the tower, and certainly wa much struck by th numoer, trngtn, ana solidity of tbe earth work aroond it. All of them seemed in beau tiful repair, and more like the permanent de fence of a regular fortress than the mere efforts of a sadden emergency. In front was a deep unco, witn a strong eaevaux ae jrxtt of rough pointed timber at the other side ; while above, from tbe edge of th fuss t th slope of th battery, were pointed stakes about three feet high, set so closely in the earth as to appear at a little distance like a dark band all around the work. But with such a commanding point as the Mamelon once in oar possession, the whole ot these stockades aod the oattrie behind them could be destroyed in a single day. On tbe left of the Malakoff, but projecting 100 yaids in advance of it, wa the Redan. This is now on of the moat tremendous of ail the Rus sian works. Its three side have doable tiers ot guns, there being in this on battery, alone, it is calculated, not less than 250 niece of ordi nance, some of tnem of the very heaviest oalibre useu in wanare. i ui work, like Malakoff, ia also defended by a broad deen ditch, with a chtvavx defri., but without stakes, on the slope of the parapet. From between the batteries a most admira ble view could be had right down into the town behind tbem. Even with th naked eye every thing could h eQ quit distinctly ; but with a good glass, a minute examination of every house could be mad. But th moat minute examina tion which 1 eonld make failed to ahow me that we had mnicted an in the town NARROW ESCAPE OF THE POPE. The correspondent of the London News gives the following account of the narrow escape of the Pope of Romerom a violent death. In the cloister of the monastery of St. Agnes, bis Holiness entertained his distinguished guests at dinner, in a large hall on the first floor, and subsequently admitted the pupils of the Propag anda College to kiss his foot. At this moment, about 150 persons were col lected together around tbe Pope, when an aw ful tremour manifested itself in tbe flooring, which his liohness instantly perceived and eo deavored to prevent his guests from being a- larmed at, assuringtbem that it was the shock of an earthquake; phenomenon with which his residence as nuncio in South America had rendered bim somewhat familiar. However, before any farther conjectures were broached tbe floor gaVe way, " With hideous din and combustion dire," and Pope, prelates, cardinals, generals, soldiers and scholars, were precipitated through it with out order of precedence, amongst falling beams and fragments of masonry. Cardinal Antenelli's good luck saved bim alone, of all the cardinals present ; he was near tbe window, to which be clung for support, but his eminent brethren Marini and Patrita, were severely injured in the lall, as wa thtrrench Uenerai, and a great number of tbe Propaganda pupil. Pio Nono himself descended unhurt, and sit ting in bis Papal chair; and wa extricated from the wreck, amidst exclamations of miracola! miracola I from all around. In gratitude for such an escape, his Holiness forthwith invited all who were able to follow him to enter the -church, and with a loud voice intoned a thanks giving to the Almighty, and afterward recei red the sacramental benediction from Mocsig or TitzanL Meanwhile, the wounded were extricated from the ruins, and conveyed to Rome in carriages much to the surprise of the peaceful citisens who had assembled at the gates, and were oon ternated to see so many priest with their head tied op. aome disabled jockeys were expected from the steeple chase, but it waa supposed that th Pope' excursion would be by no means so dangerous. An Irish Propaganda pupil boasts ot having Deen the nrst to suocor his Holiness, tbe same youth who was reciting a congratula torr sonnet to the Pope when the floor trave way, and was consequently in immediate proximity during the deccent to the regions below. The great carpet, which had been spread over the floor is supposed to have broken the Pope' fall by rendering it more gradual, bat, to what ever tutelar influence we may choose to attri bute it, hi Holinesa certainly did escape safe and sound, and th Roman municipal council and senate, viewing it in tbe lieht of a nrodirv. bav given orders for a devout thanksgiving to tne xmmaoouiate conception aunng three days to commence on raonaay next. d any injury worth 'speaking of The Tittle huts of the Tnrki.h nA tartar population outside the walls are destroy ed.

Th moss that grows strongest on the north side ot nr ana other trees, in the latitad of Europe, give, as is well known, a clue by which a course may be directed through a forest ; for looking on tne surrounuing masses ot trees, much more moss will be observed in some one direction than in any other ; aod that moss, lying as it does on the north aide of tbe several trees, is of course due south with reference to the observer. And a he walk on, and fresh trees come constantly in sight, he is able to correct any slight error of airecuon into which peculiarities of particular tree may at nrst nave led bim. The Siberians travel guided by the rinnles in the snow, which run in a pretty fixed direction owing to the prevalence of a particular wind. The ripples in a desert of sand are equally good a guides, or the wind itself, if it happens to be blowing, especially to a person pushing through a tangled belt of forest. It require very great practice to ateer well by stars. In tropical countries, tbe sodiacal stars, aa Orion and Antares, give excellent east and west points, the Ureat Bear is useful when the North Pole cannot be seen, for you may calcu late by the eye whereabout it would be in the Heaven when its pointers" were vertical,' or due north ; and th Southern Cross is available in precisely th same wav.
