Burning of Moscow,

The following is from communication
by Admiral Tchitchagoff, to the Athen-
eum Francais, extracted from an inedited
history of the Russian campaign:
"lel3, The burning of Moscow was Of
ten the subject of conversation The i'm :
mensity of the loss, and the influence it
had upon the retreat of the French, am
ply explain the interest with which this
act was invested. As to the cause of the
confagration we did not agree. Some
attributed it to the Russian governments;
others to the French army and others still
to the patriotism of the Muscovites-
Each of these suppositions had its parti-
zan. and the controversy was very warm.
L can with difficulty comprehend the
opinion of those who were then persever-
ing, and are SO still, perhaps, in charging
upon the Russian government the burn
ing of Moscow, acting, as they allege, in
behalf of the general defence.
Count Rostopchine, the Governor Of
Moscow, whom these persons have been
eager to invest with a brilliant halo of
patriotism for having carried into execu-
ton this pretended idea of the govern
meht, has always said that he was wholly
ignorant of it. Atlast weary of the bril-
liant part which he was obliged to PLAY
in spite of himself, and annoyed i

A Lecture to Loafers.

Stand up here, you lazy rascals, and
let US reason about your daily vocation
Hold up your sheepish heads and say why
sentence of the most unqualified condem
nation should not be passed upon your
conduct. How can you possibly have the
impudence to stretch your lazy bones on
store boxes or block up the post office
door with your carcasses, to the no small
annoyance of busy working people who
are engaged in some useful occupation 7
How can you be contented to pass away
the time in lounging around the streets,
only shifting to avoid the rays of the sun
in company of your equally lazy and
useless companions, the dogs, perchance
once and while setting your canine
friends to fight for the sake of gratifying
your brutal love of fun ? and how can you
have the unblushing impertinence to gaze
under every lady's bonnet who is compell-
ed to pass by, and just before she is quite
out of hearing indulge in your vulgar pro-
pensities by remarking what gait, what
big feet or what stuckup air. and turn
ing to one of your companions, inquiring
of him 'how he'd like to hitch horses with
that feminine for life z You poor fools,
don't you know that her stuck up air was
caused by her having to pass such crowd
of human brutes? And don't you know
that instead of criticising a lady's gait
you ought to be at home mending your
garden gatel And that no sensible fem
mine will hitch horses with any of you as
long as you pursue your present business?
Do you suppose that you were made
for no other purpose than to loaf and
hinder industrious people by asking un-
meaning questions or standingin their way!
And do you think it decidedly sharp when
you hail gentleman who is hurrying
about his business, and asking him if be

in time if you do not bestir yourself and

Do you immagine that you were crea-
ted to do nothing, aud that brains were
put in your great puupin heads for the
poor use you make of them! Do you
think it honorable for you to do nothing
because your fathers have enough to sup

got by honest industry? And do you

Destruction Of the City Of BrGuSa.

BEIRUT, SYRIA, May I4th.-The city
of Brousa is of great antiquity, having
been the Capital of the province of Bithy-
MIA, and afterwards of the Turkish en-
pire, and the burial place of the Sultans;
from which fact, as well as from its nu-
merous and splendid mosques, there hav-
ing been formerly about 200, it was cal
led by the Moslems "the Holy City" 1t
is situated at the foot of Mount Olympus,
on the coast of the Black Sea. though not
directly on the shore, having Ghemlek
for its port, as Paris has Havre. The
distance from Constantinople is only a.
bout 60 miles across the water. Within
recent period the population was fully
100000, thoug gh various causes have con-
tributed of late to reduce it to $4,000,
composed of Turks, Greeks, Jews, and
Armenians; and for ages it has been one
of the most fourishing commercial en-
poriuns of the Turkish empire. The A.
merican Board established mission there
about 25 years ago, with special reference
10 the Armeians, which has been one of
the most successful of all uuder their d.
rection in the East. Its mineral springs,
whose healing virtues were perhaps the
work of the internal fires beneath it,
which have finally destroyed it, have
been celebrated for ages.
The first intim alton of the terrible G.
vents which were to follow, was given on
Saturday, Feb. 18th, on the. Island of
Samos, situated in the Archipelago, not
far below Smyrna, and near the main
land, and some 800 or 400 miles distant
from Brousa. About midnight on that
day, the Inhabitants were disturbed in
their slumbers by the shocks of an earth
quake, which, in their violence, regulari-
ty, and duration had not been equalled by
any similar occurrence in the memory of
the living. Beginning at midnight, they
continuedthrough the night, and until the
Tuesday following, without interruption.
Some of the shocks lasted not less than
five or six seconds, and gave to the houses
an oscillatory motion, which threatened
to tumble them on the ground at every
moment. AS Samos is little else than the
product of volcanic action, the people were
at once persuaded the shocks were COZ
nected with an earthquake in Anatolia,
OF some island in the Archipelago. Grow
ing feebler and feebler, they finally ceased,
without occasioning any considerable in
jury.
At the same time violent shock oc-
casloned alarm at the port of Uacri not
far from Rhodes, which, if it occasioned
extreme peril, yetin one instance wrought
wonderful deliverance. 1t is stated that
a little village was being swallowed whole
and alive, when. having sunk 60 feet, its
progress was stayed, without the loss of
a single life OF the ruin of single house.
The unlucky and yet lucky villagers,
finding themselves at the bottom Of sort
of tunnel, we're glad to make ladders, and
thus escape from their prisons.
All remained quiet from Feb. 81 to
Feb. 2s, the last day of the month, when
3 shock alarmed the city of Smyrna at 3

lowing night he set fire to his warehouses.
Similar causes must have produced Ell,
ther partial confagratons. There were
also other particular acts of vengeance
The escaped prisoners eagerly spread the
conaagration, in order to pillage with
greater impunity.
The French themselves, unintentional-
ly contributed to the conhagration. T
have with my own eyes seen upon the
route followed by the French army. the
floors of many apartments completely
charred, in the middle of which they had
lit fires to warm themselves, lacking eth
er patience, time or the requisite skill to
light the stoves of the country. Now in
Russia, the floors are composed of neither
brick nor tile, but entirely of wood. The
fire thus kindled therefore, rapidly COM
municated to the houses.
A pamphlet of Surgeon in Chief, NJ.
Larrey, contains the best description Of
the conaagration which has been given
up to this day. Indeed it is from the
point of view taken by him that tho facts
must have presented themselves to every
Frenchman.
With the exception of his conjecture of
some superior order of which he could
have known nothing, and to which he
merely alludes, to complete the enumera-
tion of the possible causes of the confa-
grafton, and regarded his picture as per-
feet.
The burning of city may happen,
without the concurrence of all the causes
which existed at Moscow. Witness the
great fire of London, and in our own days,
that of New York. This was moreover
not the first time that Moscow had been
burned. In the sixteenth century, during
the reign of Ivan the Terrible, three 'inceD-
diaries succeeded each other at intervals
of few days, reduced to ashes the entire
capitol and Kremlin. This confagration
was attributed to the sorceries of Gins
key, whom some wished to ruin, and who
proved the victims of this accusation.
Under Ivan ", Moscow was burned
a second time. In the time of Godonow
the kremlin, and the quarter occupied by
the mobility, alone escaped from third
conAagration.
A soldier of the enemy enters house
and finds nobody on the premises, save
an invalid keeper. He puts him various
questions, and finishes by demanding
where the wine cellar lies. He visits it
shows evident signs of satisfaction, and
goes away saying be will return soon.-
And indeed he does return very soon, ac-
by number of his comrades,
and they all descend together into the cel-
lar, which closes with trap door. The
soldiers betake themselves to drinking in
the cellar and become intoxicated. The
keeper perceives this by their noise, and
first intends to imprison them, by piing
heavy stones on the trap, but on the see
ond thought, fearing that they may escape
and wreak their vengeance on him, he
makes resolution q Ia mode, he sets fire
to the house, and takes to his heels.
