AN ITEM FOR ABOLITIONISTS.-Mcssrs. +.
A. & j. W. Merritt, of Augusta county, have erected
II large u,l handsome marble tomb stone over the
grave Of IL servant, with the following inscription
"Sncred To the mcln"ry If Billy Martin, the faithful
servant OF John Merit"
This stone tsays the S.nunton SPECTATOR no doubt
cost more than Aunt Harriet Stowe has given for the
| relief Of suffering black humanity during her lifetime.
Out of the entire profits which she has reali:el from
the sale Of "Uncle Tom" and kindred works, we
doubt whether she has appropriated Ia the starving,
furnishing culorGh population uf the North, an amount
equal tn that expended by these grateful masters, in
erecting n monument over the remains of an attached
and faithful old family servant.
CHOLERA At THE TUNNEL"-The Staunto,l
Spectator states that several deaths from cholera az.
CURED last week nj the Blue Rifle Tunnel, among the
laLorers. Up to Monday last there Ind been fourteen
cases. On Monday week tw" az three persons died,
on Wednesday four or five, and on Sunday one-in
all about eight. Some three or four patients are i'll
a fair way TO recover. The disease is confined TO the
six or eight shanties situated on the ravine running
from near the top of the mountain nj Rockfish Gap 10
the Eastern mouth OF the Tunnel, a distance OF sixty
to n hundred yards, and is hence attributed to some
local cause. Two persons from the infected district
brought the disease 10 the Western side of the noun
tain, and one nf them died. No case has originated
in the neishborhood, "ut Of the locality described.

The Turks QuestiOn-War Be-
gun.

A letter from Galatz, dated Octobe
| oath, says:
Yesterday morning hostlities between
! the Turks and Russians commenced -
! Two Russian war steamers, the Ordi-
| nanza and Pruth, received orders TO leave
| Ismail for GalatZ and lbrail, towing each
! four gunboats. Arrived off Isakcia, Ga
Turkish possession above Tulcia,) where
the Turks had erected batteries mounting
about 90 guns, these batteriss commenced
firing upon the Convoy, the commander
of whloh ordered both the boats and The
steamers to take positions and respond 10
the attack on the part of the Turks
This was done in less than ten minutes,
and after two hours and a-half very active
bombardment from both sides, the Rus
siaLs succeeded in disabling the batteries
of isakca, and then continued their v0y-
age to this place, where they reached last
night at 10 p NJ. In This first engage
ment the Russians lost 10 men, including
"A colonel, and had so or 60 wounded. -
The steamers and boats were but little
injured.
Another letter, of the Gath, from Jassy
shows that the strength of the Russian
army in the Principalities has been much
exaggerated.
Instead of the 10000 men which, ac-
cording to the standing number of the oc
cupying corps, ought to be there, there
are $4,000 men in Wallachia, and Of the
5000 in Mo dovia the greater part is in
the south Of Berad, Tekutsrh and Fox
shan. In Jassy and its enylrOns are about
200 men, but none in the west; that is
in those districts touching on Transylva
MIA. About 10000 men are concentrated
at some few English miles from Bucharest,
and there Prince Gortsc hakoH still has his
headquarters. Particulars relating to the
Iocallzation of the troops III WhlIacha
are given by the same journal, but they
are rendered inapplicab g by recent events.
Hostiities had in reality commenced in
Asia.
A special steamer with dispatches from
Selim Pacha reached the Porte on the
49,! The contents were known by vague
rumors only. 1t was sand that on the 20lh
October, Massa Bey having sent out re-
connoitering party in the direction Of
