KossUTH ON THE FALL OF SwEABoRG.-In
his last letter TO the New York Times, Kos
snth says that all allowance must be made for
the exaggeration of correspondents in the
Baltic, when they tell us that Sweaborg ex-
lists no more; he thinks, and he is quite
right, that fortress has still the pretcnsons to
exist:
"1he chief importance of the achievement,
consists in the fact, that il is II new pledge of
a protractcd war. English publcists think
this event brings them II step nearer towards
the triumphant conclusion Of the war. am
just of the opposite opinion, and believe that
il casts them further off, without an adequate
change in the policy of the combined allies.
Such achievements do not take away strength,
neither do they materially affect the political
prepcndcrance Of Russia; they are just
enough TO irritate Russia beyond the possi-
biliiy Of Cancellation. Diplomacy may strain
every nerve to s0othe the envenoming effect
of such blow, they may go 50 far as to re-
duce the conditions Of ,Nrnce, instead Of rails.
ing the price; the Car will not agree to any
thing--he cannot agree TO anything, without
the prestige Of his power restored. II would
cost him his throne and his life. His power
must be broken or he must vanquish. Such
events as the catastrophe of Sweaborg admit
of no other alternative

Astounding developments transprcd on
Saturday in regard to extensive larcenies of
old railroad iron belonging to the State
works, amounting altogether to $1,000
One of the laborers in the employ Of second
hand dealer named Henry Nicholas, sued for
his wages, and while before the justice gave
hints duplicating Nicholas and several others
living along the line. Information was sent
to the canal commissioner, at whose instance
twenty-six persons were arrested and COM
mitted to our Jail. Thirteen barrels of broken
iron have been recovered, with a prospect of
getting 80 more. 1t is said that nearly every.
body living along the line of the road is en-
gagged in theits.

DEATH AND ROMASCE.--At st. Louis, on
the 9th ult., an inquest was held on the
body Of Jacob Hill, who had committed sui.
eide, when some interesting facts were de.
vclopcd, which lend a most romantic interest
to the affair." Early in June last, Mr.. Hills
wife died in child bed, and the mother and
child were buried in lot in the German
Protestant graveyard. Daily since then he
has visited the grave, often spending hours
there. He had enclosed the lot with Il fence,
and profusely ornamentcd it with flowers
On Saturday morning he visited it for the last
time, and after tracing on the tombstone IN
inscription with pencil, laid down upon the
grave and blew his brains out with pistol.

JoHN NJ. BERRIEN-Tho Savannah Repub-
lican of the 10th contains n long and power
full letter from the Hon. John NJ. Berrien, in
favor of the Amercan party. 1t is, says the
Republican, "a powerful vindication of the
principles and objects of the American party,
and sweeps away, MS with the hand of n giant,
the shallow soplstrics and windy objections
of pettiiogging lawyers and peripatctic stump
speakers. The present position of Judge
Berrien, his eminent ability and long services
cannot but impart great weight to his coun-
sells, aud commend them to the respectful
consideration Of the reader. He does not
appear as partisan, nor as an aspirant TO
Office interested in the result of the election;
he addresses himself to the people, of the
State, and dscourses the great questions in-
voved with the ability of the great statesman
and in the spirit of the patriot"

HoRRIBLE MURDER IN WILLIAMSON CoUN.
TY.-The Nashville Wing of Saturday says:
We learned particulars yesterday of a most
brutal murder Of II slave woman by her mis-.
:ress, Mrs. James Bolton, residing about one
mile from Beech's stand, in Williamson coun-
ty, on Wednesday. The inhuman woman,
our informant says, whipped the girl first,
scaldcd her, and finally finished the work by
killing her with blows on the head with a
spade. 1t was even reported by some, though
not credited by our informant, that she hung
her victim as last manifestation of her pas
sion. 1t is reported that the deed was com.
mitted in n fit of jealousy, which had worked
Mrs. B. to state of frenzy. She admitted
the crime, but claimed that it was committed
in selfdcicnce.

"Eevry little willie, some solemn warning,

the mind Of thinking men, and points for

we may some day be convuIsed If remedy

the age is too peculiarly one Of excitement
Tor any single event TO leave Il lasting im-

BUSINESS IN New YoRK-Ncw York at
the present time is full of life and gaety,
hustle, and business. The Journal of Com.
merce says:
sour city isjust now at the nood.lide of
the business season. The streets and hotels
are crowded, and the entire city teens with
life and activity. Steamboats, and railroads
from every direction come crowded with pas
scngcrs, and the hotels are busy from NOR
ming till night with the continued arrivals
and departures.
There are large number of smaller no.
tells that are also crowded with VISITORS
Add to these the numerous boarding houses,
which accommodate hundreds of guests and
some idea may be formed of the crowd of
strangers now in New York. The fall
trade thus far has, some of its branches, been
unusually large. Many houses are selling
nearly double the usual quantity of goods
The dry.goods dealers are particularly busy.
Some of the large jobblng-houses are com.
pelled TO work the entire night, in order to
pack and ship the goods through the day."

A SIGNrIcANT TRUTH,-sIiss Mcdowell,
in the last number OF the Woman's Advocate,
utters the following bold but significant
truth:
As women are more affected by the preva-
lence of immortality than men, it is really
strange that they do not frown down those
vices of men which are so frequently fatal to
their own tranquility. Many female who
would not refuse to dine with n profigate
would think herself foully insulted we're she
invited to take tea with courtezan; but the
only difference between the two is, one wears
pantaloons and the other pantalets-the
morale is the same.

by the intempcrate action of a few professed
