FURTHER FOREIGN NEWS.
Victory by Sir Charles Sapirr-' 1,500 Russian
Prtsontrs Taken. Japan Ports Open to the
United States, tf-c
TYora our foreign files to the 28th ult,
by. the Arctic, we take the following ex
tracts. The Eastern. War.
Admiral Napier, after 8 hours' bombard
ment, destroyed the fortresses of Gustaffs
voerrij at tbe entrance to the Gulf of Fin
land 1,500 Russians were taken prisoners.
The Bntish steamer Tiger, taken by the
Russians near Odessa, had been burnt.
Her Majesty's ship ran aground. The
Russians soldiers immediately surrouuded
her. Cnptain GifHrd lost one of his legs,
and a midshipman both legs, find five sea
tnen were wounded. The Russians had
two killed and several wounded. Two
hundred and tweny-six prisoners were
captured by the Russians. On the lOih
everal large men of war appeared off Odes
sa, and 8ni in a flog of truce to the town.
NH.bU! further known, but we may be
sure the Admiral will make serious repri
als. Six more Russians vessels had been ta
ken as prizes, and put into the port of Me
caeL, where prize-inasters were put on board,
a.nd they were despatched to England.
There is a confirmation of the news that
the Russians, losing-all hope of defending
the coast in consequence of the blockade,
have evacuated their position from tJatoum
to Anapa an extent of 200 leagues.
Plan ff Operation in the Black Sea.
Tbe Paris correspondent of the Times
gives the following as the plan of operations
said to have been determined upon, name
ly, to land 30,000 men in the Crimes, while
the fleet will attack and destroy Sebas
opol ; the Anglo-French fleets then to leave
the Turco-Egyptiuo squadron in the Black
Sea. and Cronstadt to be attacked by the
whole overwhelming forces of the combin
ed fleets.-.: The arrangement for despatch
of the English contingent at Constantino
ple on the' 15th i gives probability to the
above. It .was said the whole English ar
my could be embarked in 24 hours.
- 7 The Austro Prussian Trmty.
' 7The treaty between Austria and Prussia
has been made public, and its stipulations,
(says the London Times.) however invol
ved in intricacy of language, bind those
powers to interfere if the Czar persists in
the prolonged occupation of the Principali
ties, tJhd to interfere by force of arms if he
attempts the passage of the Balkan, or in
corporate the Principalities intothe Russian
deminions. However the most ambigu
ous language is employed to enable the
King of Prussia to play false without vio
lating the terms of the treaty, the Times is
confident that a regard for his own inter
ests will keep him "in the right groove."
The isi"ge of Sillistria.
Constantinople advices state that on the
15th Marshal Paskiewitsch, with his staff,
crossed the Danube below Sdistria to re
connoitre. On the 16th, terms of capitula
tion were offered to tbe commander of tbat
fortress, andlne bombardment was suspen
ded." On the "17th Musa Pasha rejected
all terms, and on the same day the bom
bardment re-commenced. On the 13th
Paskiewitsch had his. head-quarters at
Kalara8ch. This shows that the bombard
ment had not been finally suspended, as
vas inferred from the previous dispatch.
It is stated that the vanguard of Gen Lu
tlers, about' the 13th, experienced at the
hands of a Turkish division a defeat, ac
companied with very serious loss. Subse
quently:; however, tv telegraphic dispatch
from Bucharest, of the 20th inst., states that
an encounter took place on the 18th, on
tbe road from Rassowa to Silisiria, and
that the Ottomans retreated to Silistria.
Bridges were thrown over the river on the
following day, and three Russian divisions
erossed ; so that Silistria is now enclosed
on all sides by the Russians,
. . . -" England.-. '
A, Cabinet Council sat for our. hours on
Wednesday, and, it is believed, that the
question of despatching a land force' to' tbe
Baltic was under the deliberation of the
Cabinet, .The Eurydice, with two smaller
men of waTj and French steamer, .have
sailed to pay a visit to Archangel on, the
. White Sea, to commit devastation amongst
the small cmff;'wv "'I. .. ,
It is found that very heavy ordinance is

- -tst"'?-4,t'"'' '
teries of this descriptoin, some of the pieces
weighing six tons, are now being shipped
at Tculon, Marseilles and Woolwich. Po
litical considerations may cause some de
lay. The 21st Fusileers have received orders
for immediate active service in the Baltic,
and will embark on the 29th instanf, or
thereabouts.
The death of Admiral Sir Hyde Parker
is announced by this arrival.
Tbe financial policy of Mr. Glstdstane
was approved in the House of Commons
on the 22d uh , by a vote of 299 to 189.
"France.
France will augment her army in Turkey
to 170,000 men, particularly as no com
plaints about sacrifices which tbe country
mnst make ttfe heard.
The Moniteur publishes the report of
tbe budget, from which it appears that tbe
Tccsipla ot-tbe. year are .estimated- ai 1,560
0l2V213f, and be expenditures at U62,
36$03f., which leaves a surplus of 3,981, -905f.
v
, General Baraguay d'Hilliers is coming
home to command the Northern French
Army, under the orders of the Emperor.
Gen. d'Hautpoul, Buraguay d'Hilliers, and
Ornano are created Mnrshals of France.
Greece.
Kink Otho's doom is sealed. The French
and Euglish authorities are to seize the
custom house and government, and will
administer the affairs of the kingdom pro
visionally until matters are settled. The
English are taking effective measures to
sweep away the corsair which infest the
Greek waters.
Portugal.
Portugal has formally declared herself
neutral, and has closed her ports to priva
teers. Prussia.
It appears that at St. Petersburg the war
is becoming highly unpopular. Count
Nesselrode has ben mobbed. New taxes
are levied to a great amount upon the peo
ple, and, as usual, their property is placed
under sequestration if they do not cash up
These rigorous proceedings, superadded to
the frightful conscription which is going
on all over the Russian Empire, are expec
ted to have some tragical results at no very
distant period. Memel, BifFa, Libau, and
Windau have been formally blockaded
since the 15ih instant, and the upper ports
arc, no doubt, closed by this time.
Advices from Berlin state that all the
troops in Poland are on the iuarch to the
Baltic provinces,
Spain.
A squadron of Spanish steamers was
preparing at Cadiz to sail for Cuba in July.
Troops are to leave in June for the same
destination.
India, China, &'c.
The India Overland Mail arrived at Tri'
eate with dates, from Calcutta to 29th of
April ; China, March 12th, and Australia
to March 29
The patriot army in China was advan
cing towards Pekin.
It was reported that the Americans have
established friendly relations with Japan.
A paper snys : " Japan is to be opened in
one year's lime. Three ports are being se
lected." This corresponds witb the report
of the concession to the Russian Admiral.
It was reported from Vienna that Rus
sia had concluded treaties with Persia.
Bokhara and Khiva, and is to keep a sul
sidiiry force in those States. The story is
doubted.
Tne yield of the Australia gold diggings
was increasing.

The steamer Sa Bird met with an acci
dent and landed to send intormation to San
Francisco. She then left the coast, pro
bably to trv her sails, and has not since
been heard of The surveying steamer
Active went in search of her.
Recorder Baker resigned his office on
the 15th.
Avery, who murdered Susanna Russell,
on board the Yankee Biade, has been com
mitted. His defence will possibly be in
sanity. A t'essel is fitting out to act as a priva
teer under the Russian flag.
Gen. Sharp has been shot by squatters
whom he had orderea off his ranch.
Rich diggings have been discovered on
South Mount Diable.
The Maine liquor law will be adopted

Not long since a friend of his dropped in
and stopping before the picture, gazed in.
tenily upon it for a few moments and then
sung out abruptly, and, as he imagined,
very wittily.
'Hallo, Doctor, is that 3'onr portrait V
'Oh, no,' replied the Doctor coolly , that's

The 'anxious enquirer suddenly discov

IN this preparation ait 'the restorative properties
of the root are concentrated in their utmost
strength and efficacy) but while SarsaporiHa Root
forms an importantpari of its combination, it-l,
at the same time, compounded wiih other vegeta
ole remedies of great power, and it is in the pecu
liar combination and ecicn ific manner of its prep
aration, that its remarkable success in the cure of
disease depends. It acts simultaneously upon the
stomach, the circulaiion and the bowels; and thus
three processes, which are ordinarily the result of
three different kinds of - cdicine, are carried on at
the same time, through the instrumrn'aliiy of this
one remedial agent which gently siirtitilat.es while
it disinfects and expds Iroin the stomach and
bowels all that is irritating, and at the same time
ef-tores visfor and tone. Many oilier preparations
imitate in ocuring the name of Sarsaparillu, and
in that their resemblance ends, bring often prepar
ed from Worthless and inert roots, and of course
possess no healing or curative properties, and pa
tients in making choice of which t lie v wiil use,
should lake no other, but that one entitled to their
confidence, from the long list of cures it has effect

awelled to the utmost. The swelling was lanced
hv his physician, and discharged most profusely;
after thnt no less than clev n ulcers formed on the
eg and foot at onw time. Wehad fivediflVrent Phy
sicians,but none relieved him much ; nnd the last
winter found him so emaciated and low thai he was
unable to leave his i Cd, suffering the must excrucia
ting pain. During this time the bone had become
o much afleeted that piece after piece came out, of
which he has now more than twenty -five preserved
in a bottle, varying from one hulf to one and a half
inch s in length. We had given up all hopes of bis
recovery, butal this time we were induced to try
youi Saisaparilla, and with its use his health and
ippetite begitn immediately to improve, and so rap
id was the change thallesj than a dozen bottles ef
