WEST AND SouTH.-A correspondent
of the Journal of Commerce, after
travelling over most of the Western
States. gives it as his deliberate o.
pinion that there will be full aver

Kentucky, as whole, is thought,
also, to have two thirds of an aver
age crop. Tennessee, the great
corn State, II is now generally ad-
miited, viii have an average crop;
while there is a large excess over

Laaiing ofthe Crimea Expedition,
The first news of the landing of the ex-
petition against the Crimca came from Wen
na, dated evening of Goth, as follows:
+" l'iiiy-eight thousand men landed at
Euputora on the lIth."
The next was the following Official am
nounceInent forwarded from the( Britsh)War
Department to The London Times of the 22d
for publication.
Photographic accounts have been re-
crived by Her Malesty's Government from
Vienna and Bucharest announcing that the
allied forces, consisting Of $4,000 English,
25,0C0 French and 5000 Turkish troops,
Landed on the 18th al Eupa,oria without
meeting any resistance, and hud commenced
marching on Sevastopol'
Our Paris correspondent of date 2 list says
IN Official despatch, posted up on the
Bourse to-day, confirms the news of the
landing of the Crniea Expedition on the 18th
at Eupatoran
This intelligence was sent on the 10Th
10y the Austrian Internuncio at Constantine
pie TO Gen. Coronin at Bucharest"
"A number Of transports had returned to
Naroa for the French reserve of II 900 men.
Some of the allied ships are living oil the

any Rnssion reinforcement intended for the
Crnnen.
Odessa .1gain BombGrdment. According
TO the newspaper FiemfenbiaH all the strand
batteries recently erected at Odessa were
destroyed by some ships of the allied fleet
Previous aiyices stated that eight An
slc-French steamers had taken up a posi-.
ton before the town. 10 this. however, we
must append private dispatch which saws
from Vienna, evening 10Th. The account
given yesterday of the bombardment o
Odessa appears doubtful; a letter OF IN,
10th makes no meuion "ofn.-
Reported acceptance Of he Conditions o.
peace.-Accounts from Consian,inople o
Sept. 10 bring news OF great Importance, i
true The statement was that the Gar has
consented TO accept the four propositions o
the western powers, and that an armiste,
would be the consequence. II was SAID that
on the morning of the 9TH. the Porte and til
Austrian lhternuncio received dispatches sig
nfylng the Cars willingness to accept III
four propositions as the basis of negotiations
The same day steamer was dispatched L
learn the whereabouts Of the allied expedi
ton, and on the succeeding day lthe slh) an
other small steamer, called the Danube, wa
sent with pressing dispatches to the feet, sup
posed by that time TO be at Serpeni's Isle
As the steamer was small, and the weathe
boisierous, II could not have ansSed befor
the expedition dsembarked.
TINS news is not confirmed, but positlvell
asserted. II is doubtless false.

A Significant Fact.

Of all the vast crowd that attended upon
the recent State Far 1T Brattleboro', not
one, It is said, was seen intoxicated FIT
teen or twenty thousand men on the ground,
and all sober. Is not this uery significant
fact; And we nave the same account of
the several County Fairs. excepting that at
the CALEDONIA Fair there was one and he
probably from another State the CaledonIan
says-thai tlourishcd his bottle as II proud
10 show himself of as a very foolish man.
AT the Orleans FAIR, there we're nearly 1900
persons, every one Of whom went home rs
sober as when he came, Now everybody
knows, that drunkenness, quarrelling, and
rowdyism. were formerly Accomplishments Of
all such gatherings. W hat has wrought the
change? We appeal to those who have
doubted the policy Of the present Liquor
Law, and ask them If they can discover any
adequate cause for SO great and beuetcent
a change IN the habits of people on such
occasions, except in h1t Lar itseT2 We
know that IN theory II first looked a little ug-
ly but facts are worth more than theory.
and oiien serve TO correct theories. Facts
and experience are certainly doing ava
prejudice against Prohibltory Law and
the time Is probably not far distant when
the prohibitory principle will be very gener
ally accepted. Vital facts, living realities
are more potent than prejudice, and must in
time subdue it. And If we mistake MT
they have already subdued most of the op
position TO our present Liquor Law.-Iras
burg GaSete.
Thus far to show that the law prevents
Offences. On the other hand, at the late
Fair in Rutland there were a dozen or more
persons arrested for offences against the
law-thus showing that the law Furnishes
offenders.

0PThe pretence Of the Soits" that the

not admit slavery until some local Legisla
ture established it, Is effectually refuted-if
