toeiabie notion Of the state OF affairs in the town
before its final capture.
Odessa-I.s Origin and Present Position.
A few facts connected with the origin and present
position OF Odessa VIII be read with interest. II is
TO the ambitious policy OF the Empress Catherine
that Odessa owes iis existence as irec trading
port. The place OF snail collection or miserable
Tartar novels is now occupied by fine and spacious
city intersected with broad streets and ornamented
with the magnificent Russian Cathedral an adm-
iaty fine exchange, spacious theatre, and large
pubic gardens. There is also a spacious covered
bazaar with $50 shops, and in various parts OF the
town more than GOO magazines and stores for corn.
The town possesses also numerous literary and edu-
cational establishments. The town has a p0pula-
ton of about 40 900 inhabitants, many OF whom are
exceedingly wealthy. large numter of Russian
noblemen make Odessa their residence, and their
elegant carriages and equpsges rolling about the
town, and the activity and energy which are every
where visible, afford to the traveller just arrived
from Turkey striking contrast to the lethargy aud
inaction which every where prevail III the adjoining
don iIions of the Sutan.
The town is in the form of an oblong parallelo-
gram seated on declivity sloDng towards the sea,
and the whole Of the country for many miles round
is a vast plain with but few unduatlons, and desti-
tute OF trees or foliage. Between the harbor and
the town there is long line Of barracks formed OK
l6 detached ediiccs, capable OF CONTAINING nearly
1000 soldiers. In 1877, Odessa was declared n
fee part for period OF 80 years, and subsequently
extended to 1854, and it is now the great depot for
the grain and other produce OF Southern Russia
The treacherous conduct Oh tue RUSSIAN governments
in not keeping open the passage. of the Suina
mouths of the Danube is mainly caused by
desire TO increase the importance and the trade OF
Odessa to the injury of the ports of the Waiachian
and Moldavian Princpalities. To such an extent
has this policy been carried that the trade OF Odessa
has now assumed most important Dimensions. Some
statistical returns presented by Russia to the govern
ment of this country. in 1861, showing the trade,
industry, revenue and population of the different
portions Of the Russian empire, contain much in
formation with respect 10 the trade Of Odessa. In
the last year 10 which the returns were made up,
the total number of vessels Of all nations that
entered the port OF Odessa was s7s; the tonnage,
233 1876; the number OF crews employed ll3l4;
and the total value OF the cargoes, Il Cos 72 The
amount of the trade carried on with Odessa by dill
felenf countries WAS as foll0Ms:--

The Truth.

The n Y. Journal of Commerce with
no partiality for the American Order, traces
the riots at Louisville, to the Anarchical
Foreign organizations:
If the telegraphic reports, given on the
neXs page, prove to be accurate, general
understanding must have existed between
the Germans and Irish, previous to the
election, that they would go armed during
the day, and prevent Americans, by every
means. from approaching the polls The
first outrage was committed by body of
Irish or Germans, as early as nine O'Clock
in the morning. The next attack was made
upon Americans, several of whom were
wounded by Germans, who fred upon them
from their houses and brewery in which
they had entrenchcd themselves 1t is not
stated that any provocation was given but
perhaps infamed by drink
at the defeat of their ticket, was probably
the main cause Of violence which these ruff
fans had recourse to. They reapcd, howcv-
or, bitter fruits from their mad folly. Pi-
table is the lot of most foreigners that land
on our shores. They emerge suddenly from
subsection to tyranical rule, and habits of
slavery that generations have stereotyped, in
to that paradise of the depraved and untirif-
ty, the possession of active political rights.
The story is familiar to every one, of the
lriShman who, after regarding for some
time with wonder threshing machine, cried
out, 'Ie're bloody sthrong but ye can't rate
The Irish, alas, can vote so can the Ger
mans, and between them they are acquiring,
in the hands of Demagogues more iniqui-
tous than themselves, a control of elections
in many of cur States, of which it is time
that Americans should be wearicd and
ashamed"

The South of Oldcn Time,

In Mr. Benton's forthcoming volume of
his Thirty Years In the Senate, occurs the
following passage
1T is Il tradition of the colonies that the
South had been the seat of wealth and hap
piness. of power and Opulence that rich
population covered the land. dispensing ba-
ronial hospitality, and difusing the happi-
ness which they themselves enjoyed that
all was life. and joy. and afiiuence then
And this tradition was not without simili-
tude to the reality, as this writer can testi-
fly; for he was old enough to have seen (af-
ter the Revolution) the still surviving state
of Southern Colonial manners, when no
traveller was allowed to 60 to 4 tavern, and was
handed over from family to family through
entire States; when holidays were days of
festivity and expectation, long prepared for,
and celebrated by master and slave with
music aud feasting. and great concOurse of
