LATE FOREIGN NEWS.

The chip Birn1ing ham, arrived at N. York
from Liverpool, has brought London papers
to the 9TH Sept, three days later than be-
fore received.
The military operations of the Russians
had not advanced with that decisive rapid
ty which had been expected by some. There
were indications of a design to reduce Sbum-
Ia by famine rather than by the sword.
The resistance Of the Turks, it is admitted.

tons for relnforcements on the part of the
Russians favor this opinion. In the month

ministers of the great European powers as
sembled, without doubt, for the purpose ofin-
terferlng in the dispute between Russia and
the Porte and advising such measures. we
presume, as might be necessary for the pre-
servation Of the balance of power on the
Eastern Continent. The Emperor was To

subject to considerable allowance for color
ing. When they speak of desperate con-
flicts and obstinate defence, sorties, and
attacks, with the loss of four men killed, or
some twenty or thirty Russians destroyed,
while the Turks are two days in burying
their dead, we must doubt somewhat of their
numerical accuracy. On the 9th the Turks
made fresh attempt to dislodge the Rus
SLAMS from interpretations before Choumla; but
they were repulsed and driven TO the foot
of the ramparts. In these sorties the Rus
SLAMS had thirty-ive men killed and thirty
seven wounded. The Turks it is added,
bad been employed two whole days in hu-
rying their dead. The Russians claim to
have been equally successful in resisting
the sorties ofthe garrison of Siistra.

the return of the Emperor to the army was
expected to take place before the end of
the month, by which time the reinforce
ments, to the amount of forty thousand men,
would have reached their destination. The
fatigues and hardships to which the corps
diplomatic had been subject in following the
head quarters in Bulgaria, had been so Sc
we're, that it was expected that they would
remain, for the present at Odessa, until cir
cumstances should call for their presence
in advance. The fortress of Poty, on the

From the WTlIiGmstoOn .ddUocate.

1t has frequently been asserted that the
farmers of New England have to strangers
a morose and forbidding aspect, though on
acquaintance they are found to be the most
kind and warm-hearted people in the uni
verse and why their countenances should
thus belle their dispositions, affords wide
field for speculation. Some declare it to be
the efect-of the climate while others say
it is caused by hard labor and exposure to
the rays Of the sun in summer, and to the
cold storms and chilling blasts of winter.
Bot an ingenious friend who has bestowed
considerable thought on the subject, assures
MS that it is to be attributed entirely to their
drinking sour and hard elder This is the

THE NORTH EASTERN BOUNDARY
There has been general impression, that
the question respecting the boundary line
between Maine and New Brunswick, which
the government of this country and Great
Britain have agreed to submit to the arbi-
tration of some friendly sovereign, would he
referred to the Emperor of Russia. No au-
thentic annunciation however, we believe,
has been made, Of any agreement between
the two governments respecting the sove-
reign who should be requested to perform
this service though the form in which the
question shall be submitted has been settled,
by convention ratified by both govern
ments. The New Brunswick Courier an
nounces, from a source which it considers
authentic, that the King OF the Netherlands
has been agreed on, as the arbitrator.

man gives an account of an ingenious ma
chine g. for spinning fax and hemp, invent
ed by DR.. Bell and Mr.. Dyer, two intelligent
and respectable gentlemen from New Eng
land. They entered upon the prosecution
of their plans last winter. and have now
brought them to successful termination"
1t has not yet been patented. "The quail
ty of the yarns produced is pronounced by
competentjudges,t TO surpass other linen yarns
IN as great proportion as cotton or woolen
yarns spun by the present improved machin-
cry, are superior to those wrought by hand.
The size of the thread can be varied to any
extent, from that of cambria to that Of rope
yarns used in the manufacture of cordage.
The instrument now in operation produces
about the same quantity of thread per spin
die, tineness being equal, az the throStle
Sp1adtes in the cotton manufacture. The
whole formation of the thread from dressed
flax is completed at one operation. The
material laid on the machine is wound upon
the spools ready for the loom, without the
Intervention of any assistance the whole
being effected by the rotatory motion com
mnnicated from drums. Indeed, all the
motions ofthe instrument are of a circular
kind"

John Ware, Jr. brother to the person who
was concerned in the attemptto convict false
ly Mr.. Redmond, of perjury, has been COM
mitted for trial at New York for several
swindling transactions. A list of his depre-
dations covered a sheet of paper. One of
them was to this effect. A yonng man
went to New York some months since, from
Massachusetts, with about $4,000, with
which he intended to purchase a schooner.
Ware, having made himself acquainted with
his design, offered his services as broker,
and became possessed of the money. He
also by some insidious means, obtained
note of the young man for small amount.
He then purchased the schooner in his own
name; sued the young man for the amount
of the note, and caused him to he thrown in
to Jail. The schooner remained the proper
ty of Ware, while the friends of the young
man were forced to advance sum to effect
his release. A precious william, truly.
