Pianori,' it appears,'served in - the regiment of Garibaldi at? the siege ol liome. - Ine circumstances of the case; were of course thauht to indicate a conspiracy and the hiring ht a paid morderer, though Pianori says: he was actuated solely by feelings of personal re-? venge. - . . . 1 This event caused an immense excitement in Eng-; land, as well as on the Continent. In the present complicated state of European affairs, so manv in terests are connected with the life of the Emperor, that his death would be a serious misfortune to the cucmico vi nuaia. us was overwneimea with t congratulations,' from all sides o& bis fortunate es-1 cape, the next day, the Senate came in form to I address congratulations and sympathies. in ms repiy to mem, ine Jiimpor said: " There are existences which ai e the instruments of the decrges of Providence.- So long as my mis sion is not accomplished I run no danger." The War. At Sevastopol the bombardmen t had ceased, the ammunition of the Allies being exhausted-; But, attacks on the Russian outworks, and sorties from the garrison still continued, with quite as desperate fighting as ever. In a very sharp engagement, the French had taken a Russian earth work, with a number of light mortars, and some two hundred Russian prisoners. It is generally believed that the siege operations must he abandoned for the present, and that while Kamiesch and Balaklava are left to the defence of a few corps of the alied forces, the main portion of the latter will try to penetrate into the interior of the Crimea, defeat, if possible, the various armies of the Russians, cut off" the supplies received by the garrison of Sevastopol, and completely invest the town. No general attack has as yet been made by the fleet on the sea ports, though each night a sin gle steamer, has been enabled to approach sufficient ly near them to throw both shot 'and shell to ad vantage. The army before Sevastopol is in good wuvuuuii , vuc nuvp olc icpurieu as neauny, well fed, housed, and clothed Though re-inforcements were constantly arriving; up to the latest dates, the Allies were neither numerous enough, nor sufficient ly well provided; to undertake a long campaign in the interior of the- Crimea.
