RUSSIAN ACCOUNT OF THE BON
BARDMENT OF ODESSA.

The Russian account of this bombardment,
a brief notice Ofwhich we published on Mon
day, and which has been addressed by the
Russian General, Baron Osten Sacken, to the
Russian troops in Bessarabia, differs consid.
erably from the account of the allies The
Russian General states that the Anglo.
French squadron, consisting of six three
deckers, thirteen two deckers and nine steam
ers. carrying. altogether, 1900 guns, anchored
near Odessa on the 2lst ult. On the next dav
nine steamers. one carrying 81 guns, and e;ph,

Russian batteries, which, in all, mountaa A.

CAUSE OF FIREs.-There is very little

CAUSE OF FIREs-There is very little
doubt that most of the fires which occur in this CITY,
are caused by boys and negroes, many of whom
would readily fire stable or carpenter shop to
have run with the engines. The remedy for the
evil, then, is to prevent the boys from running to
fres and this can only be done by authorizing the
Police to capture and cage every one of them, who
may be found with the engines A friend informs
us, that some years ago, a neighboring town pur
chased two old engines, and that Immediately
thereafter, fires became of nightly occurrence
This state OF things continued for several months,
when the citizens became satisfied that houses were
fired by boys that they might enjoy run with the
machines and finding it impossible to remedy
the evil in any other way, the engines were knock
ed to pieces, and rendered useless Since that
time our neghbors have scarcely averaged three
fires in year. We do not propose destroying the
engines of our city, or interfering with the gene al
arrangements of our active, energetic and efficient
fire Department. but we think it exceedingly impor-
tant to prevent boys from taking possession OF the
engines and hose reels, at any time in the day or
night, to have race with them; and as this can
only be done by an ordinance OF the City Council,
it is to be hoped that suitable will be passed
at the next meeting

TIVE NEBRASKA BILL.

The Triumphant passage Of the Nebraska
hlIl Ii the House Of Representatives, which
hhailed with satisfaction BY patriots and con-
ssryatives everywhere, is lashing into afoam
she elements Of treason and disaffection in
the North. But the threats of mob violence
which did not alarm the House Of Represen-
tasives. win scarcely terrify the country. The
men who make the most noise on this subject,
are the least dangerous of the human species.
They IRE either abolition editors and politi-
clans. who live in an atmosphere ofagitation,
and who are expected, as matter OF course,
TO make fuss on all unsuitable occasions; or
abolition parsons, who have stolen the live.
~ Of the court Of heaven to serve the. devil
In but their disguise being penetrated, are
no longer capable of doing harm. Such PEG.
pie as these may threaten notification and
disunion to the crack of doom. but nullifca-
ton and disunion will not therefore OCCUR
The prick of . single bayonet would let out
all the notification gas inthe great abolition
balloon. see.# @
Some Of the New York editors, like the
Tribune and Times really talk as If they had
the world in sling as if their tripod were
Olympus, and they had only to raise their
arms to control the ways of mankind. The
London Times is . mere penny whistle to
these great thunderers. They may find cut
their mistake. They have put forth their
feeble power to prevent the passage OF the
Nebraska bill by the House of Representa-
tives, and the House has given no more heed
TO their rawlings than it would have done to
. couple Of bedamites, bowling blasphemy,
treason and nonsense from the bars of luna
tic asylum. This fact should teach them mo-
desty end moderation. For let them be as
sured, that if they cannot influence the ser
wants Of the people, much less will they inau-
ence the people themselves.

THE BALTIC KINGDOMS.

The London Daily News states that public
sentiment in Norway is strongly in favor of
an alliance with the Western Powers, which
is regarded there as the only true policy for
the Scandinavian governments. The Nems
thinks that no other course could be expect
ed from power, which has been protesting
against despotic institutions for thousand
years. Perhaps.an equally powerful motive
Of action is to be found in the fact, stated by
the Christiana newspapers, and quoted by the
Neacs, "that the nation will be starved to
death if it has the Western Powers for enc.
miles,"
The principal metropolitan newspaper
Of Norway declares that Denmark, Sweden
and Norway must form an alliance, offensive
and defensive, the first act Of which shall be
opening all their ports to the allied fleets and
thst if Russia takes offence at this, the next
step will be to enlarge the confederacy, by
extending it to England and France, their
''natural allies" The cause of the Western
Powers is then pronounced to be good
one; and the policy of the case is shown to
be all on the side of the right.
The popular feeling in Sweden in favor of
the allied powers is said to be rapidly rising.
The London correspondent of the n York
Herald states that, after his visit to the king
the English Admiral was cheered through the
streets by the populace of Stockholm, and
the students of Upsala chartered steamer
to proceed to the feet, and sung national
songs under the bows of the Duke of Wei
lington. 1t is thought that a promise to re-
store Finland to Sweden, would secure ris
ing in that country against Russia, when the
war commences in earnest. The people of
Denmark, it is said, as well as those of Swe-
den, sympathise with the Western Powers,
while their governments sympathise with
Russia,

The Doc G4TcHERs. were out with their
nets, yesterday playfng havoc among the canine
family. When we saw them about 10 o'clock in
the morning, the cart was nearly filled with sicky
looking ours, growing terriers and good natured
hounds. all huddled together, and looking the very
pictures of despair. What number was captured
we know not, but it is very certain that ten times
that amount would not be missed in the city
