trious heroes of our country.
In the course Of eleven months
the garrison Of Sevastopol has dis
ps'ed with powerful enemy every
inch ofground Of the country which
surrounds the town, and each of ito
enterprises has been distinguished
by the most brilliant bravery. The
obstinate bombardment, four times
renewed, and the fire Of which has
been styled Internal shook the
walls of our Notifications, but could
not shake or diminish the zeal and
perseverance Of their defenders
They beat the enemy or died with
indomi. able courage, with self de-
NAL worthy Of the soldiers of Christ,
without a thought of surreDdering.
Regretting from my heart tho
loss OF so many generous warriors,
who offered their lives as a sacrifice
to their country, and submitting
with resignation to the will Of the
Most High, whom it has not pleas
ed 10 crown their acts with COM
plete success, l feel il sacred duty
on this location, TO express in my
name as well as in that of all Rus
STA, 10 the brave garrison Of Sebas-
topol the warmest gratitude for its
interchangeable labors, for the blood il
has shed in the defense for nearly q
year of those Qualifications which il
erected in few days.
But there are impossibilities even
for her heroes. On the 9Th of this

which were repulsed, the enemy

Those tried heroes, objects of
the general esteem Of their COM
rades, will doubtless give in RENTER
ing actually iuto the ranks Of the
army, new proofs Of their warlikc
virtues. With them, and like them,
all my troops, animated with the
same unbounded confidence in Pro-
violence, with the same ardent love
for me and my country, will always
and everywhere fight the enemies
that attempt to touch our sacred
arch, the honor and the territorial
integrity of our country; and the
name Of SebastopoI, which has &C.
CURED immortal glory by 90 much
suffering, and the name OF its de-
tenders, will live eternally in the
hearts of all the Russians, with the
names Of the heroes who have i'm
mortalized themselves on the fields
of battle of Pultowa and Borodino.

Professor Anderson made a trial
Of his newly invented lncendiary
Shell, on Saturday, on the Mohawk
Flats.
The shells used by the Professor
on Saturday were abou, the size, aud
nearly the shape, Of a common beer
bo,,le--be,ng q cylinder some eight
inches in length, fla, al one end aud
cone-shuped at the other. Ills shells,
he informs us, are filled with material
which expIodes on the conclusion
produced by striking solid body q
gainst which they fired. This ma
terlal Is OF the most connbusuble ma
ture, and his large shells, according
10 his theory, will Instantly wrap IN
sheets OF flames, ships or buildings
against which they may be thrown.
On Saturday SIX pieces Of cannon
were on the held, only three Of which
were used. These were stationed
about forty rods from the structure
Ia be fired. Several shells were 6red
before one from the Utica Cir'ze0s
Corps gun was Judged in The s'uc'-
ure. Two other balls were sent. im-
mediatcly utter it, by an iron gun from
GarratisviIIe, brought hi,her by Pro-
fessor A., aud the gun belonging to
the Seymour Artillery. Ia q mo
ment, flames were seen arising, and
these steadily increase till the pile Of
lumber was wholly on fire. The
structure was burned to the ground !
SO far the invention proved q sue
cess. The shells, however, were not
delivered with precision. This was
owing partially If not wholly TO, Tho
fact that the guns were not OF the
right bore Tor the shells, aud per-
haps to the inexperience OF the gun
ners. The accuracy with which
they may be fred was, thereiores,noe

A Sterling Old Poem.

Who shall Judge a man from manner''
Who shall Judge him by his dress9
faupers may be fit for princes,
Princes ct for something less.
Crumpled shirt, and dirty jacket,
May bcclothe the golden ore
OF the deepest thoughts and feelings
Satin vests could do 40 more.
There are springs Of crystal nectar
Ever yelling out of stone;
There are purple buds and golden,
Hidden, crushed and oyergrown.
God, who counts by souls, not dresses,
Loves snd prospers you and me,
While he values thrones the highest
But as pebbles in the sea.
Man. upraised above his fellows,
OF furgeis his fellows then;
Masters rulers--lords, remember
That your meanest kinds are men
Men by labor, men by feeling,
Men by thought, and men BY fame,
Claiming equal rights TO sunshine
Ia mans ennobling name.
There ore foam embroidered oceans,
There are little weed-clsd rills,
There are feeble inch-hgh saplings,
There are cedars on the hills
Gud, who counts by souls not stations,
Loves and prospers you and me,
For 10 Him all VAIN Distinctions
Are as pebbles in the sea.
Toilne hands alone are builders
uaiion's wealth and fame
Tnled lazness Is pensioned,
Fed aud iaitened on the same
By The sweat OF others ioreheads
Living only to rcjolce,
Wilde the poor mans outraged freedom
Vannly litelh up lis voice.
Truth and justice are eternal,
Born with lovehn'ss and lights
Secret wrongs shall never prosper
While there is sunny right;
God, whose world heard voice IS singing
Buundless 1--we to you and me,
Sinks oppression with It's titles,
As the pebbles IN the sea.

FRlEND WALroS, AT the date
of my last this whole section Of
country was in the greatest alarm.
caused by The cold FLOODED murder
of a large number of white men by
the Indians T: since that time no far
ther hostile demonstrations have been
made on their part, and every thing
is comparatively quiet. The Ra myers
have all returued-having tracked
the murdcrefs TO the Indian Reser-
walton in Rogue River valley-which
reservation is under the immediate
SUPERVISION Of the troops at Fort
Lane-where negotiations are now
pending for their delivery TO the
hands of justice.
The greatest excitement prevails
here, aud in fact all over the coun-
try, with regard to the new mines
lately discovered, on the Pend Or
ielle river in Washington Territory.
Thousands o. miners are leaving
California for That region, and all
through Oregon the accounts from
there have produced pericc, ma
MA among the inhabitants. Hun
dreds are leaving their farms IN the
Willamette and Umpqua valleys,
with all their crops ungalhered IN
the fields, and taking wha. stock and
provisions they have on hand, are
making for the mines with uli possi-
Bile speed. Accounts are rife that
the mines extend for one hundred
and fifty miles, and are richer, b,
Gar, than any ye. discovered upor
