It is to be hoped for the Sake of Torkey that Ita forces May soon take a More Active and prominent part in the War than they have of late been doing. Sine the Advance of the austrians into the Moi edit Ira Omen Pacha has been catalyse do in the Crimea the turkish contingent Haa been kept in the background Rad dating tiie Lime pied in changing commander in the army of Asia nothing what Ever has been done in that Quarter. Bat a time has come when Omen Pacha May resume his Advance with a fair Prospect of being actively supported by the a uses. I a latiese news from Batum too Are encouraging. The a tenant of the new coins Der in it chief seems to to taking judicious measures for facilitating the operations of his chief when he Shal alive. It is alleged that the disposition of the army of Asia made by its late in meander in chief was objectionable not so much on Mere tactical or strategical grounds Asl close of his neglecting to pay due attention to the requirements for provisioning the troops. To this is now attributed in a great measure the fatal insubordination and excesses of the irregular troops and the found in bringing even the leg Lars effectively into the Field a entirely new distribution of the army is understood to be in Progress with a View to remedy these evils. At the same time a great number of the foreign ofis Cera a someer a ally Are being removed it being alleged that their Mutual jealousies and quarrels have been productive of Mach mischief no doubt there m some incapable and inveterate intrigues among hem and if some whom this reproach does not touch Are found on the list of removals Pera it May have it Een found Nece Ary to include then Ona not of their names having though by no fault of theirs become rally iii words of faction. There is therefore some appearance of a better Day living about to Dawn on the turkish army of Anatolia. In Asia As in Etrope it is evident that the by ians Are disposed to confine themselves to defensive measures and in Asia even More than in Europe surrounded As they Are by caucasian guerillas their soldiers Iare Likely to Bel dispirited by rumours of Musaian reverses. It is London Friday oct 21, f. A despatch from constantinople published in yesterday s Moni eur intimates that the siege operations against Sebastopol Werea far advanced on the 16th As to Render it certain that the batteries Woald open their ii e upon the forts on the 17th. Liis supports the news received through Vienna of the fire hair log teen actually opened on the 17th, and for once a russian report published in the Vienna Freuden Blatt appears Likely to prove partially True. That the loss of the russians As stated by Prince Paskiewich will be ultimately found to have been much under the Mark is tolerably certain but we can a Fibre to wait for More reliable returns inasmuch As even the russian estimate discharged. On tha 4th of septet up a this Day discharged and ,. Tiow is not the Pond onion beyond All connect in almost beyond belief quot on the 4th of september was this Day Dis charged and appointed chaplain to the Asylum from that Date till last Jane this Man stood up to discourse of quot righteous news Temperance Eind judgment to come quot in tha place to which he fled from quot the Gripe of the and not Only in that place. He has preached in the gaol and one of tha proprietors of the a Lum announced to the justices quot the Rev. Or. Cobb has accepted the Semmes of or. For the Parish of st. our business.

Any flagrant breach of. Law or maladministration of Justice taking place in any part of the kingdom is the business of All the rest. We therefore make More widely known than it would be by the supplement of a local paper an affair with regard to which he lunacy commis Sisenis must Ira called on for a full explanation. The Earl of Shaftesbury is chief of he comi Hission and he will we feel assured for Lis own reputation Sake no lera than for the Sake of Public Justice direct the fullest and most Public investigation of the truly horrible Story now Only partially revealed. At the meeting of magistrates in Quarter sermons admits a considerable amount of cased ties Mph of the re a of. I j a a a. Others the death of the russian Admiral who com of a Toji a a a to the gaol and Lunatic asylums pjs to j Modeda Tsinone. The really important part of this a it of the business in hand. It seems that their head have made themselves however is now with the Asylum and the Limicy q Myisa Sonere. After the inquiry of last june theve i Ting Goagis Farat a wrote to the comi missioners in lunacy for their account of the matter a Mere acknowledgement of the receipt of the letter waa do that could be obtained till the 11th inst., when of being pressed by the proprietors of the Asylum the commissioners sent Down a declaration that they believe the Rev. To have been insane when Adini ted. They give no explanation however of their own breach of the act under which they hold their office and by which they were bound to examine the patient be Zonally before he was admitted As chaplain. For two years and a Quarter the Man was under their notice Between his entering the Asylum and their pronouncing the Only opinion that could be got out of them. They knew that he had been metamorphosed from patient to spiritual guide in a moment in breach of All Laws of reason Constence and of the Law of the amp land. Surely some Independent member of the House of commons will pm found to Call them to account for this dereliction of duty unless lord Shaftesbury s regard for a is own ghaiact3r renders each cordon Tum Cesary up to this traint the visiting magistrates seem to have done their duty. We Are concerned to have to add that the magistrates have renewed the lice a of the Asylum. No voice was raised on behalf of Nichols who before the visitors denied merely the quot exp regions quot imputed to him by or. Hull. About the facts there is no dispute whatever. Or. Watson was whitewashed and the decision to renew the lit use was made to rest on the High character of or. Ranking who has recently As we said become a partner. no longer chaplain. The inquiry of last Juno put an end to that scandal in messes. Nichols and Watson cease to be to Ere too there May be new patients. If there should be in the meantime. Or. Banking s character must be a weighty one indeed. Or. Hull declared at the Timoi that he should Send no More and he has sent no More it appears except such had been previously arranged for. We have nothing to do with his having sworn the peace against or. Nichols nor Mth any of the local quarrels growing out of the fact amp what the Public has to do with is this Theca a of Justice has been obstructed by or. Can the Wymondham Fifo Istrate.

We Are willing to is love that in a it me cases the convictions he has obtained have been just and a Sinfol. But one or two pieces of Good serve a to the Publio do not warrant the employment of an Agency so table to abuse. It is oar conviction that such societies Are not Only dangerous but illegal and that any person prosecuted unsuccessfully at their stance would have a Good action against All the members for conspiracy. One word As to the part which the solid tor tells us the commissioners of police have taken in abetting the society s operations. The commissioners have taken non them to recommend to the society one of their Penis bikers retired sergeant of police to be their prosecuting officer. Assuredly the adv or Cates of the appointment of Pablo prosecutor would never think of ret a mending a retired police sergeant for that delicate and difficult office. It is not to a expected that the sex sergeants knowledge of Law will be very extensive or exact he professional habits Are not Likely to Bavy Insp a him with Mudi sympathy for the rights and liberties of individuals and yet he is in virtue of his connexion with the society invested with the Powers of a Pablo prosecutor free from any responsibility free until the solicitor intimated his existence from even the imperfect Check of Public opinion. It is intolerable that the commissioners of police should presume to procure such Powers for one of their pensioners. They have herein exceeded their com Misdon. It a their limited function to a servants and agents of the judicial authority not edges to decide in person or by Dean by who have rendered themselves amenable to the Laws and who ought to be put non their trials. It is High time that the tin ration of a centralised police commission should be checked. When after amp recent Crim. Con. Trial we commented on the effects of a detective police we were told that the officer whose unwarrantable proceedings were exposed on the trial had retired from the service. True but it was Evi def he was Only exerting for his private Emoi Ament the accomplishments he had acquired in the service of the commission Ere. The a it raised metropolitan commission of police is rapidly degenerating into a state of political Pouch. It has its detective inspectors each with his band of confidential spies and it furnishes to joint Stock societies got up to subscribe funds for the payment of agents in prosecutions unless a speedy and peremptory Check is put to this we shall soon have a lieutenant of police according to the fashion of the Ancien re Gime in France Over us with the name of a quot chief commiss a state police is incompatible with English and English Liberty. The Only police that can be tolerated Are bodies of local constables in strict subordination to an deceive local magistracy. If we Are to have Public prosecutors let their functions their re Spon abilities the Mode of their appointment and displacement be defined by Law. Joint Stock a of axons to prosecute defenceless individuals to the great emolument of a few lawyers and sex policemen Are not to be endured. The siege of Sebastopol. How besiegers go to work.

In the Selec the worst part of this infamous Story. Managing committee the solid tor has naturally it was on the 12th of 7q.ne, 1852, that the a in Pic Nde rating voice and both solicitor and bar opened its doors As a the Clergyman who Rister have a direct and tangible interest to the editor of the daily hews. Sib a the Dege operations at Sebastopol though much slower than Thev might have been if energetically conducted with w the appliances at Ltd it Momand which so Entinio discovery and invention have sup it lied sine the last european War would never the Ess if pursued Sec dem Artem As Laid Down in the approve treatises on warfare occupy far longer time than we have yet been kept in suspense. In regular operations against a strongly fortified place having a numerous Garrison within and an army without that might come to its Relief the first thing recommended As essential is to form a line of Circum vacation to protect the besiegers against attack from the out lying forces. According to this plan the besieging army act As if they were Bedeger and construct earthworks and mount Cannon pointed in a direction opposite to that of the place actually beleaguered. After their Camp has Boen thus protected the first parallel is to be made. Its form is generally curvilinear so that every part May be a nearly As Posable equidistant from the Point to be attacked. This first parcel is directed to be made beyond the Range of Musket shot the print pal oct being to afford Protection for the troops appointed to guard the subs quent operations and it usually extends further than the other trenches to amp a Ligate Frank movements on the parties making sorties. Though the first parallel is supposed to be beyond the Range of Masket shot yet it is necessary to make the approach even to that Point by trenches Cut in Zigzag directions to prevent the guns of the fortress from end lading them. In that manner also the second parallel is reached the angles of the Zigzag trenches being made More acute As the approaches become nearer. The platforms for mounting the Cannon the defends composed of fas Cines Gamons and bags of Sand or Earth mus then be constructed and if done according to the rules prescribed the work is one of great labour and necessarily occupies a Long time. Protected by the fire of the guns thus mounted the pioneers Are directed to out their trenches to the third parallel which is to a formed As close to the Walls As Posable without exposing the trenches to the direct fire of the fortress. Proceeding in this manner from parallel to parallel occupies several weeks and if the Garrison be Active and bold they May by fre agent sorties prolong the operations for months Tough the work proceeds by Day and night when not interrupted. The character of the ground round Sebastopol and the favourable portion occupied by the English which protects them from external attack Render Many of the prescribed precautions in attacking a fortified town unnecessary yet they seem to have been proceeding in the approach by parallel lines according to established routine therefore the preparations Jor the real assault on Sebastopol must have occupied a longer time than was at first to take Possession of the plan. He longer Range of the Minie Rifie must have increased the danger of the work and the old Rule of making the first parallel beyond the Range of must shot had been adhered to the Distant at which operations must have commence would have been trebled since the Days of Vauban. During these siege works the men Are continually harassed by the apprehend on of sallies and in bring Relief or Scop and operations by the approach of Winter and we cannot a App a the ref re i that the Rundans will neglect that Means of annoyance to the extent of their Power. The Fadl Tiea of making such soul sorties increase As the works of the besiegers approach Doser to the Walls and if the old rules of warfare be adhered to in the attack on Sebastopol we May vainly Hope for its fall during this Campaign. Bat the Amman new of the Allied forces however strongly they May be attached to War con be nationalities must be Suff Dently alive to tiie importance of Quick movements not to allow their operations to be altogether guided by Rul prescribed i Afore the invention of rockets of the Minie Rifle and of the Large pieces of ordnance now and for battering in breach. Had Vanban the great authority in the modes of attacking and defending fortified places known of the so Entinio discoveries applicable to warfare that Are at print taxes Dale to All he would no doubt have recommended very different plans of attack and defence from those which were United to the state of knowledge at his time. It is Well for the allies that the russians seem to adhere to the rules of ancient warfare and to indent practices As Tena doubly As them saves otherwise they might direct against the Wor in the do be the appliances that have from time to time been recommended should a directed against the defences of Sebastopol and Ronstadt. Any fixed work whether of attack or defence is Assai Lable by a Means previously indicated in our columns and if the russian commander were to apply them against the works of the a sieges they would be compelled to abandon them and to adopt other Means of attack. But As our men have been allowed to proceed in their operations of forming parallels and mounting heavy guns without effect tue obstruction it is Tobe hoped that they will not suffer from Superior alertness in the enemy to adopt More destructive engines than Cannon. There is indeed a method of applying the destructive Agency of ordnance with greatly creased effect against the Walls of a fortress which might the adopted Ith great amp deity. Lie importance of the simultaneous Dis Argey a Battery is pointed out by acknowledged authorities in the Art of War. It is stated that All the guns should fire together and towards the same part a Tecusa quot this United firing repeated in this manner against a be same place is productive of a much better effect than if the guns were to be fired one after the other for not Only a greater Quantity of the Wall is shaken at the same time but moreover the shaking is far More the destruction of the Walls of acre was an illustration of the effect of simultaneous firing and before the departure of the expedition for the Baltin it was adduced As a proof that the fortifications of Ronstadt would offer no effected resistance to the broadsides of powerful ships when directed against the Granite Walls. Though the in Hartance of firing altogether is thus recommended by old authorities and has been proved by modern practice no attempt Haa been made to apply the Means that science affords of discharging simultaneously any number of guns either on Board ship or mounted in Battery. A command to fire altogether cannot pos duly a obeyed with precision when every gun is separately discharged and the Force of concussion must Conse mently be less than if All the balls were to strike at the same instant the simultaneous discharge might however be accomplished with great ease by Means of Voltaic electric Day if our military and naval offi a would so far deviate from established usage As to adopt that method when battering in quot breach. On Board ship the advantage would be greater than in batteries on land for the proper moment of discharge when the ship is in motion is a matter of the greatest consequence and it might be completely at the command of one skilful Engineer instead of being dependent on the judgment of Many individuals acting separately. Vauban would gladly have addled himself of the Means of acco pushing what he deemed so essential but his disciples in the Art of War hed Tate to take advantage of the Power conferred by science because it is not so set Down Luey will _ adopt improvements when made by influential individuals by Small Steps at a time without much deviation from the old track but they object to take Long strides. Nevertheless these step by step advances sometimes Lead to serious error which might have been avoided by taking another path. The Lancaster gun is a questionable improvement of this kind lodging from the statements published on saturday of frequent bursting. An elliptical Iron Ball fitting into an elliptical bore May produce the effect of the Rifle but the least shifting of position by the explode Force of the powder must tend to fix the Ball in the gun and thus Occa Don the bursting. Had it been proposed to make a Rifie Cannon Ball by fixing to it yielding Lead projections or if the eccentricity of the Lancaster Ball had been s reduced by Lead attachments on each de such deviations from the established Mode might have proved too great for adoption though they would avoid the danger of bursting the gun. It a nov invention be bound round with red tape it May have a Chance of being received with favour but if to give it greater efficiency the red tape encumbrance be removed it then becomes too Vid onary and impracticable a matter for serious Condzer Amiott by the devotees of routine.
