From the seat of war there is nothing

At Sebnstopol matters were quiet.-—
The allies had been threatening Tcrekop
but their advance was checked for the
present.
French troops in large numbers were
c-oncentrlating on ;-the , Danube.
The allied fleet was before the walls
of Odessa, and a bombardment was daily
looked for.
Ten thousand men were employed in
making a road from Balaklava to the al-
lied Camp at Sobastopol.
A Fra’nk‘fort paper asserts that the
Russian army had been withdrawn from

towards the heights of Beihec, and that
onlya few thousands now garrison the
nortbefii forts.
In the neighborhood of Nicolaerf forty
five hundred men are concentrated.
The allied fleet before Odessa consis-
red of eight ships of the line and twenty.

They are not a marl; of weakness, but of
power. They speak more eloquently
than ten thousand tongues. They are
the messengers ofoverwhelriiiiig grief, of
deep contrition, of unspeakablelove. If
there were wanting any arguments to
prove that man is mortal, I would look
for it in the strong convulsive emotions
of the breast, when the soul has been
deeply agitated, when the fountains of
feeling are arising, and when the tears
,are gushing forth in crystal streams. Oh.
speak not harshly to the stricken one,
weeping in silence. Break not the deep
solemmty by rude laughter or intrusive
footsteps. Despise not woman’s tears-
they are wbatxmade an angel. Scoff
not if the stern heart of manhood is some
times incited to te:trs——-they are what
help to elevate him above the brute. I
love to seetears of affection. "They pro
painted tokens, but still most lioly.—
there is a pleasure in tears-——an ‘awful
pleasure. If there were none on earth
to shed a tear for me, I should be lotb

my grave. I could never die in peace.

Ice IIauses.——We had occasion some
yenrs ago 10 make some inquiries on‘ the:
subject of ice houses of Mr. N. J.
Wythe, ofCambridge. Mass. who plan-
ned many of the extensive - -coinznercial
ice houses near Boston. Mr. VV. con-
structs his ice houses all above‘ ground,
with double walls or frames as described
by our correspondent, except that the
space between the two walls is 21-2 feet
at the bottom and 2 feet at the top; the
spaces are filled with tan or saw dust,
but charcoal is better, and a thickness
of 13 inches we should suppose sufiicient
to keep the ice well. Mr VVythe sets
the posts which are to form the double
walls or frames of his house in the ground
The bottom of the house, he says,
should be filled about a foot deep with
blocks of wood: these are leveled and
covered with wood shavings, onto which
a strong plank floor is laid to receive the
ice. Upon the beams above the ice a
tight floor is laid and covered several
inches deep with dry tan or saw dust.
The roof ofthe house should have a con-
siderable pitch, and the space between
the upper floor and the roof should be
ventilated by a lattice window at each
gable end, or something equivalent, to
pass out the warm air which will accu-
mulate beneath ibe roof.

For the Gazette.
MR. Bvmorox :—It has seemed to me
rather strange that you continue to pub-
lish,» without note or comment, the ulter-
ences of your St, Louis correspondent,
and still more strange that none of his
old neighbors in .Norwalk appear dis-
posed to answer him,
Perhaps they think him not worth no-
ticing. He is undoubtedly a soft head.
or he never would have been so imposed
upon by the slave drivers. Any man
who can go from this free land, and in a
single year be metamorphosed into an
apologist for Slavery, and write home
such blarney in extenuation of the
crimes of those "Border Ruffians” who
are attempting to trample out the last
vestige of liberty in a neighboring terri-
Lory, must be both, weak in the upper
5'07‘?/, and deficient in moral principles.
And yet he writes with such an air of
importance, that people not well inform-
-ed are liable to be influenced by his rep-
resentations.
He tells us we are humbugged by a
partisan press, that this whole agitation
about Kansas is a humbug.
Why then does he not give us the
facts? Can he deny that a mob of Mis-
souri bullies took possession of the polls
and carried the election in Kansas ?-
Dare he say that the sham Legislature
which they elected, have not enacted
laws which, if enforced, will deprive
every citizen of the liberty of speech,
and of the press, and deprive three-
fourtlis of the electors of the right of
voting? Does he expect the people of
Norwrlk to believe his bold assertion in
the face of public documents? Shame
on him.
He tries to make us believe that it is
a more political squabble. The ques-
tion wbether a territory larger than all
New England, shall be open to the set-
tlement of freemen, or doomed to per-
petual slavery, is mere political squab-
ble, is it? The question whether the
slave oligarchy shall be enthronerl as
the dominant pywer in our country, and
all the free States be brought into sub.
jection—tl1is is a mere squabble of poll-
tic-iansl 3
But the “worst feature of this series of
letters, is the attempted apology for the
Missourians. They were provoked .’—
Who begun the provocation. Kansas
was a free territory by the laws of the
land, by solemn compact. VVlio moved
the abrogation of that compact? And
who sent their slaves into the territory
in advance of the repeal, knowing, as
they did beforehand, how Congress
would act? It was the very men who
are now crying out against our Emi.
grant Aid Societies. No doubt they
were provoked. Villains are very apt
to feel viley when their schemes of plun-
der are defeated. Are we to let them
alone lest. \ve should make them angry F
But this’ he tells us, is a more ques-
tion of properly. Mo7'alz'ly has noth-
ing to do evil}; it. Degenerate son of
New England in what school were you
trained P Where did you learn that the
principles of morality have no applica-
tion to the laws of the land, and the in-
stitutions of society ‘I Not from your
mother's Bible- most certainly. Not
from the expounder of God's Word in
No-walk, under whose teaching you
. ought to have learned, at least, some-
thing of the great principles of morali-
ty, ou which our free institutions are
based. It must have been in the school
of bar room politicians, in which too
many youhg men in New England have
had their minds perverted, and their
hearts turned away from right, and
truth, and manly devotion to the princi-
ples of liberty.

The Pennsylvania Telegraph, printed

returns of the Pennsylvania election, by
which it seems that Plumer, Adm. has
161.284, Nicholson 149.745, Williamson
7,22-f;a|l others, 7,027 —leaving Plu-
mer in an actual minority, of 2,712. He
falls short of Bigle’s vote, last year, 5,-
717, when Follock defeated Bigler by 37,-
007. Does any one believe that the Re-
publican party when rallying on a pop-
ular candidate for the Presidency, cannot
poll as large a vote as the of Pollock’s?
They think so and are encouraged. ’

that it will be lower next year.’ New
mines are opening, and the facilities for

increasing. Among the many recent
developements, we hear most flattering
accounts of those of the Mahanop re-
gion. The supply of coal is large, and.
the quality said to be at least equal to
the best coming to this market. All
this adds to the wealth and importance

marked improvement over their first perform-

in particular, were received with the most
enthusiastic manifestations of pleasure. Mr.

successful manner, and, in fact, the entire

Nr:wYo1t1t, Oct;'26rh, 1855.
The banners are swpying to the wind
over Broadway, and the main avenues
of the city, indicating to the citizens
the approach of the election. It is
worthy of remark that the fisunting can-
vass in no case bears a motto, nor the
enunciation of a principle, but are filled
with The names of men, -most of them
heretofore unknown to fame.
The interest of the election seems to
centre upon the choice of Senator in
Erastus Brooks’ District, which com-
prisjes nearly the Northern half of the
city. The Hards and Sam have united
upon his opponent, Mr. Mundy, as well
as the Liquor Dealers. Erastus has not
been endorsed by the whigs and his
chances look worse every day.
There is no doubt that the Know
Nothiugs and the-leading Hards have
formed an arrangement for the election
of two or three of . the American candi-
dates , especially the Sheriff. As this
is a most lucrative office, considerable
capital has been embarked in the specu-
lation. Encouragement is given to the
formation of all sorts of conventions
and nominations, in order to split up
the vote. For their service in the City,
the American State Ticket is to be de-
serted and their strength thrown to the
Horde, in order to aid them in their at
tempt to obtain seats in the Cincinnati
Democratic Convention. It is rumored
thata certain large contractor has given
large sums of money to aid in those ar-
rangements hoping to meet with his re-
ward by an elevation to the White House
of Washington‘. ’ '
Some twenty conventions have.-made
noiniriations.alr.eady,. and every day‘1wit-
nesses the birth of a new machine of the
same sort. Next year we expect To see
the Banks, Insurance Companies. and
very likely some of the Churches each
putting forward a set of candidates.
Free Love was just about to engage
in the same operation last week,‘ but
the police clnbs knocked its calculations
in the Station house.
Free Love, hdwever, is not yet wreck-
ed. It was washed from its moosring
by an extraordinary uprising of munici-
pal indignation, but has been triumph-
antly carried back on the bane of a new
excitement, viz : the question of the
decision of moral or immoral speech by
a Police Captain, or rather the right of
free speech. The Free Lovers still
meet at 555, being more careful howev-
er in the admission of brethren and sis-
ters. 3
The true remedy for the poison is to
let it :alone very severely, and it will
pass away to make room for_ some other
excitement. The wheel of success re-
volves very fast in Gotham. Nine days
is rather a long lease for wonders in
these days of railroads and telegraphs.
The "indicted ofiicials” has been a
standing head for same time as every
week, seems to brings new corruption
to light. Alderman Herricka trial is
now in progress and the result will be
soon known. V I
P. S. Tlfe jury hasjust decided that
they cannot agree. It is difiicult to say
whethertliis willamouut to an acquit-
tal of Aid. Herrick before the bar of
public opinion. It leaves him at all
events in an awkward position.
Judge Morris of the Supreme "Court
died ‘yesterday. He was formerly May.
or of this city.‘ The venerable consort
of Com. Chauncey also died on the same
day. Thackeray has arrived, and will
proceed to fulfil his engagements in lec-
turing inlhis and other cities, and will
most probably cultivate an acquaintance
with some of our most important pro-
vincial towns. The product of hiejour-
neyings is, it is said, to appear in the
shape of a next Summer’: book. I
But in order to relieve, the dullness
which always succeeds an election, as
soon as introduced to the public, with
developments richer and more racy than
any yet produced. It is rumored that
some gentlemen who have most mag-
nanimously declined re-nominations this
fall, have only done so to escape the
course of justice. In this connection
