THE KNOW NOTHING CANDIDATE.

The Star comes out with some degree of holiness,
and announces Mr.. Shepard as tho " American y
candidate for Congress in this Districts but the Reg
lister sneaks to his support with "is" and "ru-
aors and says if it should turn out that he is the
candidate, it will "give him cordial support % The
same paper adds, e" Mr. Shepard, it is we'll known,
has heretofore been most decided, firm and unwav-
ering Democrat. " Why, what does this mean? Is
it not clear, from the above that Mr.. Shepard has
turned Whig or the Register turned Democrat? If
Mr.. Gales has become Democratic he has fallen
into the support, and that Cordially, of gen.
tleman heretofore most decided, firm and unwav-
ering Democrat, his readers ought to know the
fact and duly consider it; and if the contrary,
Mr.. Shepard can remain good Democrat, and at
the same time receive the support for high political
station of paper heretofore so decidedly federal
and Wing in its character, the people, who are the
parties most deeply concerned in the matter ought
to be informed to the manner in which this novel
and rather remarkable performance has been accom-
plshed.

The desperate was promptly secured and conveyed
to prison.
THE SEAT OF wAR-DEsPERATE CONFLICT BE-
TWEEN THE FRENCH AND RUSSIANS.
From Sebastopol We have nothing of decisive
character, although there has been some desperate
fighting between the French and Russians.
The French resumed offensive operations by firing
three mines under the Flag Staff Battery. The Rus
sians fearing general assault opened fierce can
nonade along their whole line with deadly effect.
The French lost six officers and two hundred men.
The Russian loss is supposed to be very great
The Russians constructing enormous works
north and east of Sebastopol.
1t is estimated that the Russians have concentrated
upwards of one hundred thousand in the vicinity
of Sebastopol. The allies anxiousy looking for
reinforcements.
Two Russian ships were destroyed by fire on the
10th of April.
No general attack has yet been made by the feet
on the sea forts.

esting character.
Lord John Russell had returned to London from
his unsuccessful negotiations at Vienna.
The budget had passed both houses of Parliament.
The King of Prussia is seriously but not danger
