Schumla. After an obstinate resistance, the
enemy were driven from the woods and
heights, and compelled to retire under the
walls ofthe fortress, with the loss OF stand
OF coIors. The right wing Of our army pos
aessed itself of height covered with a
thick brake of briars, which being close to
the Turkish entrenchments seriously mena
ced them. The Turks did not desist until
the approach of night from their efforts to
regain this height.
con the I2th of June, the Turks made a
new attack upon the heigh with the great
er part OF their force. Ut. General Lewis
formed grand hollow square on the right,
and posted the troops under Adjutant Gene

of the day in repeated and desperate efforts
to break our square on the left, necessarily
supporting his troops with fresh reinforce

WIZARDS.

The fedcralsts OF Massac husctts are very
cunning men indeed, and quite as valiant as
they are cunning. They pompously pro-
claim, in the first place, that the Republican
Administration has design Of going to war
with England sand, in u,e second place, they
ssgeIy resolve that il Is net cxpedient to 60
to war with that power. As New-England
is famous for her seminaries OF learning, we
are surprizcd that the gentlemen have drawn
their conclusion before they have established
their premises. We know Of only one spe-
cies Of logick by which their procedure can
be justified, and that is the .Iogick Of Don
Quixotte, who very graveIy decided that the
windmill was giant and then heroicalIy as
sanlted il. This is certainly very corDeni.
em method Of procuring reputation for Sd
gacity, if for nothing else, as it is only re-
quisite TO rfsofvc upon paper, and the thing
is done. Whilst they are in this way, the
federal Legislature of Massachusetts might
as well resolve that the Republicans Of the
United States had determined to see the town
of Boston on fire, and by another resolution
insist that it was expedient to put the fire
out. This would be following up the game
they are playing At present, and would just as
clearly prove they are no incepdarits as their
late proceedings establish that they are. patri-
