War Declared.

From authentic accounts, wo scarcely doubt
that dreadful and desolating war has already
commenced between Russia and Turkey.
What the end Of it will be, and when it
will terminate, no mortal can devise. If the
Russian and Turkish forces engage in single
bloody conflict. a general war must cnsue,
and Europe again be drenched in blood.
War, under all circumstances, is great
and fearful calamity, carrying terror, desola-
ton and frightful ruin in its course. yet we
cannot say that we would be sorry TO learn
that Europe was shaken from centre to cir
cumference by the roar Of artillery and the
crash Of falling thrones. We will be glad to
see war-nay. rather, we will be glad to
see the result ofa wsr-the downtrodden mil
lions of Europe FREE and happy.
lfthcre is a war at all, il will be terrible
one. A war in which one Of the combattants
is stimulated by an old ard bitter hate, and
bv the widest fanaticisms, will be no chiid's
play however unequal in strength, the respec-
tive sides may be. The tribes the Caucas-
us, with whom the best Of the Turks arc al
lied by sffnities of blood. will be let loose on
the Russians. On the other hand in many
parts of Europe, it will be impossible to keep
the revolutionary elements longer suppressed.
The Turks are not a weak cowardly people.
This is proved by the Declaration of War,
which comes from the people, aud not from the
Government of the Sultan.
But the great powers Of Europe who have
pretended friendship to the Sultan, have ex-
hibited disgraceful pusillanimity. They are
afraid Of the people-they are afraid of the
spirit Of Republicauism. We are much mis-
taken, however, if the Thrones of England
and Faance do not make decided demonstra-
iions in fevor of the Porte. They will be
forced to do so, by the people. Should the
Russian army march triumphantly towards
Constantinople. England and France will no,
willingly submit to the absorption OF Turkey
into the Empire of the Russian Gar The
people will submit 10 no such thing, if they
can prevent it; and we believe they can and
will. We have said, that in the event of a
single bloody engagement between the Rus
sian and Turkish forces, general war will be
the result. This We verify believe; which
must in the end, array the despotic, against
the liberal element in Europe, and relieve
Republican sentiment from the oppression
which has so long and so successfully quelled
it,
In view ofthese facts, what true American
patriot does not desire 10 see war between
Russia and Turkey? What lover Of liberty
and human Rights. would be sorry to see
war xbicn must result in SO much good to the
oppressed of our race? There is not one on
the face Of the globe. Our prayer is that the
God of Battle and of justice may prosper the
war. which portends so much good to His
wretched and enslaved creatures.

interesting from Mexico.

The following from the New Orleans Bee,
will be read with interest:
We are indebted 10 friend for the follow
ing interesting details contained in letter ad.
dressed to him from the city of Mexico
The Government has discovered an exten.
sive plot in the city of puebla. Several
prominent persons have been arrested, among
them Don Juan Mujica, late Governor of the
State Of Puebla, General Turlon and Mr.. In
zunca, attorney.
Santa Anna daily issues orders for the ex
lie of his political adversarcs. General Manol
Robles, Minister Of War under the adminstra-
ton Of Arista, Don Luis de la Rosa, Minister
of Foreign Affairs under the administration
Of Herrera, and formerly Minister Plenipoten-
tiary to the United States. have been ordered
to leave the country.
Bishop Monjia, who, since the death of Don
Lucas Salaman, President Of the Council, has
retired to his Diocese. Before leaving. he
predicted the downfall of Santa Anna, in case
the latter should not change his present poll
cy. Mr.. Haro is no longer Minister of the
Finances; his place is now filled by Sierra
Erosa.
The army is far from being ssrong-parti-
san assertions to the contrary Notwithstanding.
must state. however. that Santa Anna has
commissioned more generals and officers than
an army Of FIVE hundred thousand men would
require.
Governor Ascalate has been removed, and
General Bonille. District Governor, has been
appointed TO fulfil his office. There is not a
cent in the Treasury. The expenses are eI-
tremely heavy. The people have no more
confidence in the Government Such is the
true condition Of our country.

COMPLAINTS.

We hear great deal Of complaining about
the awarding Of premiums at our late Coun-
ty Fair. We hope there has been no injus-
tice DONE Is il not merely misunderstood
ing? We wish those who have been cbarg.
ed with showing partiality would explain the
matter Il there can be any explanation given
1t fought by all means to be done. wheth-
er the dissatisfaction is well founded or not,
we are not able to say. We are inclined to
think however, II has nll arisen from misun-
derstanding Ye that know, how is il?
Fremont journal. [volume] (Fremont, Sandusky County [Ohio]) 1853-1866, 1853-10-22

We learn from some Of our exchanges the
following item Of news which is very impor
tant if true:
A revolution will soon take place in paper
making and printing. A Mr.. Mellier has dis
covered that paper can be made out of straw
as good as that made out of rags. And an
other gentleman, Mr. Victor Beaumont has
invented printing press whose mechanism
will throw Hoes Last Fast completely in the
shade. 1t vii deliver 10000 sheets printed
on both sides in an hour. The patent has
been purchased by Mr.. Hoe. Who will say
this is not an age Of improvement?

New School Law.

We hope that all Of our readers who may
be interested in the matter, will read the AN.
swERs TO QUESTIONS ON THE SCHOOL Law by
WILLIAM TREvrrr Secretary of State, found
on the first page Of this paper. They will
be found Of great utility 10 School officers cs-
pecialy. 1t would be well to carefully pre-
serve this number of the Journal, for future
reference. There have great many ques-
tions and disputes arisen with reference to
the meaning of many sections Of the New
School Law; and we doubt not many more
will yet arise. befor the Law is thoroughly put
in operation. In case of dispute copy Of
the Digest of the answers TO various inquiries
about the School Law, would be very conve-
nient. and might save much wrangling and
hard feelings among friends and peighbers.
We have copied the ANSWER to questions
on the School Law, from the Ohio Journal Of
Education.

Young Ella.

She's but dainty blossom,
BY May winds kissed apart,
With blush upon the petals,
And dew-drop at the heart
When the storm winds come to try her,
Will she fee6ly bow her head,
While her faded leaves drop signing
To the chilly garden bed?
Or will a brave, high spirit
From the quivering dew. drop spring
Love warm the rose-tint crimson?
Faith spread each leaf wing?
God made her true and earnest!
God make.her firm and strong!
So. ereshe join the angels,
Her heart shall sing their songs

SONORA.

In August last the Indians swept over
Sonora. Mexico, with merciless ferncity.
They carried desolation and death wherever
they went. Women and children were mur.

Mexicans were at the mercy Of the savagcs
and unless Santa Anna has relieved them
the white race must by this time, be wei
nigh cxtinguished.

ESCAPED FroM BoNDAGE.-The report that
Messrs. Mitchell and Martin, transported by
the British Government for political offences
in Ireland, have esaped and are on their W iy
to this country is confirmed They will be
cordially welcomed on their arrival. We in
cline to think that these escapes are connived
at by the British Government, the rewards
offered for the apprehension of the parties are
so paltry. 1t would be more honorable 20
order their discharge

SIR:-As private member of The San
dusky Co. Agricultural Society, wish to ask
through the columns of your paper if, after
the Officers of the Society have proclaimed to
the public through the Journals of the Co.
that premiums would be awarded on the best
of each article entered COR premiums, have
the awarding committee right to report that
No is the best exhibited, but not worthy of
"premium!" are the officers bound TO receive
such report? The duty of the awarding Com
(as understand it), is not to decide whether
an article is worthy Of premium or not, but
merely to ascertain which is the best article
exhibited and award accordingly.
Again; has any superior officer the right to
instruct the Com. to bring in such report in
direct opposition to their previously published
premium list? II it is claimed that it is not
right to awar premiums to any but very ex-
ira article, would ark, is it not right for
individual. to do as they agree!
1t was published. and generally under.
stood throughout the County. that the best
article Of its class was entitled to premium.
and no other qualifications mentioned as nec-
essary. If arrangements had been made to
award premiums TO very superior articles on
ly why was it not published? AS one who
feels deep interest in the well being of the
Society. do hope that the officers will not
permit its fame to be tarnished. Especially
while yet in its infancy,) by thus defrauding
its members. say defrauding, because !
can view it in no other way. But if it is not
a fraud. I have only to be convinced that it
is not. and will gladly ackno wledge that
am in the wrong,
