In Boston they have carried all the city oflicea, el ted the whole 44 citj-representatives and six Senators, and given a large majority for Gardner for Governor. Tne nominees of the Free and Know-Nothings were f-ltfcted to GngTCss in futir Districts. Know Nothings have elected a Governor, and a Legislative majority in both Houses.

Attack on Pctropaulvwski Ly the English and French Elects. Th authentic-news of the declaration of war by England and France against llussia, reached iho allied squadron in Callao, just after the departure of several Kusmn vessels from that coast. The Russian vessels went to the Sandwich Island, and thence, as it was supposed, to Petropaulowski, or the Port of Peter an Paul, in Kamschatka, iu latitude 53 north Thither the allies wentiu search, leaving the Sandwich Islands on the 25th of They found tu? northern ocean covered with heavy f.Ng-, which compelled the vis-i els to t.ail very slowly. The fog was very often so thick that it was utterly impossible to see the. signab a hundred 3'ards oil'; and the Kurydice was parted from the other vessels in a fog, and was not seen ugain until they met at Petropauiowski, at the end of The season admitted of no delay, and the vessels prepared for immediate action.

The place presented unexpected obstacles It wm supposed that the fleet would fiud a town with few soldiers, and fow fortifications or defences of any kind but they ound a formidable fortress, protected by eight detached batteries, containing in all, more than 120 guns and 1SC0 men. Three days after leaving the Sandwich Islands, the Admirula baring no thought of finding a Gibraltar atPctro-paulowski, despatched two of their squadron the Amphitrite and the Artemise, to cruise on this coast. Petropaulowski is at the foot of a small and narrow bay, the shores of which, were protected by numerous batteries. IJefore the town could be reached, it would be neccssajy to silence three cf these batteries. Nature has given the position a protection, by the erection of a mound of sand in the midst of the bay.

This mound of sand leaves to the vessel but a narrow channel, and hides the view of the principal fortress to vessels at a distance. On the Sbth of August, the six vessels, of war, the Forte, of GO guns, the Kurydice, of 28 guus, the Obligado, of 12 guns, the Pique, of 40 guns, the Prcsdent, of 50 guns, and the Virago, steamer, of guns, (the last three English, and the first three French,) were before the place, intent upon takings it. When the attack was about to be begin, Admiral Price in command of the English forces, shot himself through the breast with a pistol ball The news had a very depressing eCectupon the people of the fleet. Price was a brave man and much respected, and out of respect for him the attack was postponed till the next day. It was supposed by some to have been au accident, while others thought it a suicidal affair.

On the 31st of August the battle begun. The Russian frigate Aurora, of 40 guns, and the Dwiua, of 18, Averc anchored tefore the mound The allied vessels, distant about a mile from the city, concentrated their lire on the three foremost forts. These were silenced after a fierce cannonade, in which 250 guns were engaged. The batteries were deserted by the Russians, the cannons were spiked, and the next day the allied A'essels moved up nearer to the city. Ou the 1st of September an attack was made upon the Russian vessels.

The Aurora was badly iniured, with a num ber of shot holes between wind and water, and having her mainmast shot away. About noon a large fort had been reduced to such a condition that it was thought- best to take it. A body of Fn nch soldiers were accordingly landed, and they took the fort-without dilhculty. The Russian officers barely had time to escape, leaving everything which they did not habitually carry on their persons. After takin? this fort it was thought advisable to send a body of men to get behind the main fort, an make a uiversion in the rear white tlie ships were playing in front.

About sis hundred men were sent for this purpose, and an American undertook to guide them around to the rear of the fortification, but he took them into a thick brushwood, where a large number cf Ilu3siai3 were concealed. The Russians began a muruer-oits fire upon the French and English, who after a short resistance, fled with the loss of about 150 men killed and wounded. They left their dead upon the field. They managed, however, to take one of the smaller redoubts, spike the cannons and take 43 Russian prisoners Immediately after the return of the troops upon their respective vessels a council was beld and it was determined to leave Petro-paulowski, and the purpoxi was soon accomplished. The main purpose of the attack was to destroy the Russian vessels, so that they could not hereafter sally out and injure the commerce of the allies od the Pacific It was supposed that the Aurora was so much injured that several months would be required to repair her.

and tue Dwma, a vessel ot about 18 guns, was considerably injured. The winter, however, lias now set iu at Petropaulowski and the ice will have completely closed the harbor of the Port of bt. Peter and Paul, long before this, so that no trouble to French and English commerce is to be anticipated from the Aurora and Dwina until next April at least. The frigate Pallas was taken up tha river Amoor some distance from the mouth, and was there made fast, dismounted and converted into a fort. The position of tae Diana was not known, but it was supposed to be in the Sea of Ochotsk.

The assailants fauod the main object of their attack, aud failed signally in their secondary object, the destruction of the fortifications at Petropaulowski. The purpose was not to take the town, which they might really have taken or destroyed without loss, on Ahe second day. It3 conquest, however offered nothing of benefit; The loss of life in the allied fleet is differently given by those who were present. More Englishmen than French men were killed and wounded. Several unlucky bails, as they are styled, struck the English vessels, killing, not solitary mea, but carrying off whole files.

The French vessels received no unlucky balls, although a number of the shot vrere sufDciently injurious to the vessels The Forte received forty balls, nd though she was in the thickest otNtlie fight, only six of her men were killed and ten wounded on the vessel. The Russian prisoners express their satis faction with the manner which they have been treated, and it is probable that they will be permitted to come on Ehore on their parole. A number of them have como from St. Petersburg within the last year. The Russians handled their guns with a skill which commanded the admiration cf the allied forces Fifteen hundred of the men in the fort were veterans from the, Caucasus, sent out through Siberia and down the Amoor within a year, and six hundred of the number had arrived within three mouths of the attack.

Among the prisoners taken, werca number of persons of intelligence, including Germans, Danes, and others who have been in the Russian service. A Russian gencralj now on the frigate Forte, in this harbor, was captured in the Sitka. He was going to take command of the fortifications at Petropaulowski. While the allied fleet was before that place, a Russian admiral, formerly on the Pallas frigate, arrived from the Amoor off the harbor in a small screw steamer, and was about to enter, when he discovered the hostile vessels, or was signalized, and putting about, succeeded in making his escape.

1. -1 4. was wrecKea on ounaay, me ist msc, auoui, 3.V P. by running upon rocks near Point Conception "in a fog. The vessel had been out 2o.V hours from this port when she was wrecked.

About half an hour before the vessel struck, one of the passengers remarked that he saw land, but Capt. Randall said it was a mistake, and that they were at least 20 miles from shore. About half an hour afterwards, the vessel ran gradually up for more thau half her length 011 a rock, with a slight shock. The land was some half mile distant, and was soon afr clearly risible. As soon as she struck the wheels were backed, put it was of no use; she was completely fast.

The water immediately couvuicnccd to rush in at the bow, and the stern settled so that the whole of the promenade deck, excepting the guards, was under water A scene of great confusion ensued. There was no order, and scarcely any attempt at the preservation of order. Capt Randall was in a boat with six men, in about ten cftnutes after the steamer struck, and went ashore to find a landing place. Soon after(that, Jhe first mate left with another boat wiih some ladies, and then the second mate toyk another load of ladles. One of these baits ws swamped, and out of 21 persons, it wassayl that 12, most of whom were ladies, were drowned The land, distant about three-quarters of a mile from where the steamer ky, ros in a bold blufi 200 feet high, aud the plaao where a landing was practicable was between two large boulders.

About seven or eight! boat loads were landed on Sunday. Here tiost of the passengers were landed but the second mate to-jk his boat down the coat about ten miles, to a beach. All the ladies were landed before night. Jdost of the passengers sajc-d nothing save the clothes they had on. 1 The sea was rather rough though there was little wind.

The surf was so lavy alor.g the shore that the boats were ewaniped four or five times, ond the men wno had iiicc reach ed shore had little ui? to gojout 121 When night approacnel it wa. iriirjOEsible to proceed whh senders to the shore. The general 01 course the pas-mpressiou the steamer would go torncccs du ring the night. The boat roiled ry much. The upper' cabin did net fdi wii'j TTer for about an hour after the vessel struck, and it is said that fiends immediately began to pillage the property, of which tlure was no owner immediately present.

The filling of the cabin before dark prevented tli continuance of the pillage. As night approached, the stern settled down and the bojf rose, so that the deck stood at an angle of aliput twenty degrees. Tbe forward steersg(('was thus elevated above the water, and as njht came ou it became the scene of horrible pjilage. There was a large number of steeraie "passengers ou the Blade, many of whom hil money aud valuables in carpet-bags, stowc1 away in their bertli3 There were twenty or twenty-five vretches on board, who were determined ti fake advantage of the confusion to commit a general robbery. No sooner was the favorinf mantle of darkness spread over the sky, flan they hurried down into the steerage, and, legan to examine the clothes in the berths, avjl to-cut open the carpet-bags.

What was done down there no honest man knows. About 7 o'clock the cry of murder was heard in thesteerage, and about the same time two pistol iltots were heard. WTho was the murderer, and who the murdered, no one knew. A iinmbcr of persons started to go down into the steerage, but the steps were taken away by tha below, and threats were made that no mn should come down Jthere alive. The condition of affairs on the boat was such that theri was not much disposition to undertake to difjnd the right cf strangers.

Thero were about 800 persons on the steep deck of the boit; sitting down, standing up, aud a few lying down shivering tuo eoia, ana waiting utmost, in despair of seeing the moruing No jne slept or thought of sleeping. During tie night some further scenes of violence occurred. A number of persons were assaulted jQne person was knocked down, anl competed, with a pistol at his breast, to give up hi money. Another was robbed, and an attempt yis male to throw him overboard. A num bet more of similar cases occurred When daylight came persons west down into the steerage and saw some marks of blood; but if a murder had been committed ta body had been cast into the hold or otherwise disposed of.

The floor of the steerage covered with articles of clothing, carpet 'lags cut to pieces, and rich China chawls witch the miners were taking as presents to fijends at home. Iu the morning t'ae boats bf-gati again to take cf persons from the wreck. '1 third mate and the pnrsur were the only o2-ers who staid cn board. The passengess speak in high terui3 of the third mate. Ilocspref-sed hi3 determination to be the last man to leave the wreck; and he was constancy busy in encouraging the desponding and endeavoring to preserve order and system." Captain Randall came tS to the stesmer in the morn-u7.

in a boat in which ho staid till it ktback to snfn-e. its assured 1 ose on thfe wreck -they would all get there was no danger off safe. By a fortunate accident, the Goliah came along within sight of the -wreck o'clock in the morning. Capt. Haley tiok a large load of the passengers on boar4 and landed them at San Diego.

In- the mealtime a number of the men on shore had startiil for Santa Barbara, which was about fifty mijes to the northward. Tho Goliah, on her return, stopped there and fouud forty-five therej and then proceeded to the wreck, where she lund on the shore the remainder, all of whoii she brought to this city. It may be that 2I few were missed who were on the way frori the landing place to Santa Barbara, and had not arrived when the Goliah touched there. AH the rest are in this city or in Los Angclos. When the Goliah returned the wreck was scarcely visible above water, and it is very likely that by this time nothing is left, and that the specie is a total loss.

In regard to tbe number of lives lost there is much difference of opinion among the passengers. Some think thirty were lost, and some estimate it as high as sixty. In one boat load swamped twelve were lost, iu another five, in another three, Sec. One man who had two carpet bags fastened to his neck, one on each side, was so anxious to get to shore that he jumped from the steamer intending to swim to a small boat which wa' near, receiving passengers, but bis carpet bags were too much for him he sunk like a stone. Besides, it is said that three persons jumped overboard from the Goliah, on the way to San Diego.

The reportisthattwo ofthe.se were robbers, who heard that they were recognized, and that there was a disposition on the part of some of the passengers to bring them to justice. Other passengers express a belief that the robbers hid themselves and managed to hare the report spread, so that they could escape. A couple of inen constructed a raft, and started by the aid of a current 'towards the shore. They had stools on their hoisted a small flag out of merriment. Their fun disappeared when they discovered that, after going some distance, the current changed, and began to carry them out to sea they were rescued by a boat.

The place of landing opposite the wreck, was a barren point, and the nearest house was ten miles distsnt. SUMMARY OF! NEWS, Smith, on trial brfore the U. S.
