RUSSIA AND TURKEY.
We extract from the Etoile, on Monday last
(the 93d ult.) statement, that the Russian IT.
tinatum had been agreed to by the Diyan, and
we are now assured that the acceptance Of it
had been announced to the Russian plenipoten.
,iaries at Alderman. The announcement, Of
course, terminated the conferences, and the Con-
gres Immediately broke up. The following is
the paragraph in which this important fact is
stated "a courier, which left Vienna on the
evening of 18th, brought, yesterday, intelligence
of the acceptance Of the Russian uIiaatum at
Ackerman, on the 9th instant. The Russian
plenipo,entiaries departed OH the 9Th, repairing
TO Odessa" The rapidity with which this news
has been communicated from the eastern 10 the
western boundaries of Europe, shows the i'm
portance attached to it; and by accounts which
we have received from other quarters, Con which
we can place implicit reiance,) we can assure
our readers that it is true as 1t is important.
The journal QeS DeOuiS, WHICH admitted Tie
great probability that the Russian uhimatum
would be accepted, endeavors to create doubt
of the good faith Of Turkey, and calls upon US
to distrust the durability of the peace resting
on such foundation.
One great point, however, is gained; the OF
tomans, from whatever cause, or with what
ever views, have been induced to surrender the
usual obstinacy of their race; Russia has, in
consequence, been deprived OF all pretext for an
invasion of Turkey; the tranquility OF Europe is
for the present secured; and war Git war we

correspondent of the New York Gazette
has furnished short description Of the model
of machine which has been put into operation
in that city, for the purpose of spinning fax or
silk. 1t is turned by crank, only requiring
a six ounce power for TWO spindles or tools: the
power can, of course, be increased to any ex-
tent by horse, water, steam or wind. The in
ventor computes that man could, without any
severe labor, turn about 50 spindles Very lit
tie attention is necessary, as the machine feeds
Itself; and the feeders can with perfect ease be
regulated to any sized thread required, even to
the finest cambria. There is great advantage
attached to this machine, beyond its labor saw
ing quality: it is that the hbres of fax, sc. are
spun altogether longitudinally, (Which cannot
be done by the spinning wheelD whereby the
whole strength of the fax, sc. is preserved,
and the thread is perfectly even and smooth
The construction of this machine appears so
simple, that any body may keep it in order"
