FROM THE CRMEA
SEBAsToPoL, Jan. 10.--It Ia understood In the
camp that considerable devstions win be made
from the original plan Of attack with the view to
take an important position for the defence Of the
flank, and two divisions Of the French army win
be held in reserve.
The army viii Immediately take up a new posi-
ton, the object being partly TO stop the supplies
from reaching Sebsstopol by the new road which
the Russians have made from Inkermann.
despatch from Marshal Canrobert, ofthe 10th
ult. says: The English have ccded TO us portion
of their lines, namely, the works commencing and
destined to batter in breach in the Mslskon tow
or, on which serious attack viii most probably
soon be made.
There is much grrmblng among the British
army, respecting alleged injustice, particularly In
regard TO recent brevet promotions
January 12th.-There Is nothing doing by the
British, except getting up shot and shell and pro-
visions. The French and Russians exchange a few
shots occasionally, and constant fire is kept up
by the rihemen.
Last night rss the coolest yet experienced Du-
ring the night body Of $50 Russians attacked a
point on the French lines, when sharp conflict
ensued. Forty Russians we're killed with the
bsyonet.
The French force now number eight divisions of
$4,000 men, and the 9th division is on lie way to
the Crimea
January 13th.-The Russians celebrated their
New Year day within the city, with apparent gale
ty. At midnight all the chapel bells were ringing.
At one o'clock the Russians within the lines COM
menced cheering. The French taking IL as an in
suit opened fire upon the town. The Russians
immediately replied along the whole line Of defense
by the fercest csnnonade yet experienced Under
cover Of the firing, strong party Of Russians
made sortie on the front and flank Of the British
lef and captured the British vdette, driving in the
covering parties but on being engaged returned to-
wards the town.
Simultaneously with the attack Of the British
line strong sortie was made on the French lines,
the Russians penetrating within the parapet and
spiking three mortars. The French rallied and
drove back the enemy inside Of the lines Of his
advance, and at daybrcak the batteries we're all
quiet
Jan. 14th.--The sanitary condition Of the British
army Is improving. The establishment OF the CEN
tral depot Of provisions has much relieved their
suferings

RIVER ITEMS.
The Louisville Journal of Wednesda

- The Louisville Journal of Wednesday
says:
The river was falling slowly last evening
with large s feet water in the canal and 81 feet
on the falls. The river was rising yesterday at
Madison. This rise was principally from the
Kentucky.
- The fast packet Thos. Swami was at our
wharf early yesterday morning, with good
crowd OF passengers, for St. Louis. We thank
her clerk Tor papers.
- The Empire arrived here yesterday morn
ing from Louisville and as she always does, took
on good deal of freight here for tine South, con-
ssting of 2G0 hhds tobacco, oats, &c. enough to
keep her hands busy all day.
Last reports from Louisville there were
6 feet inches water in channel and falling.
Also falling at Cincinnati, Pittsburgh and at this
point.
- The Terre Haute papers of Tuesday last
say the Wabash river is now fast filling its
banks, and is sufficiently full TO carly on its sur
face steamboats, of large class.
- There was a rush Of steamboats, here
Wednesday, but very few yesterday, and bust
ness at the wharf rather dali IN consequence.
- The steamer White River arrived yester.
day from Green River with just as much tobac-
co as she could carry. She is preparing 10 leave
to-day we believe.

A Horse Thief Caught.

We stated last week that horse had been
stolen from Union Bethel, and that several
had then started in pursuit of the horse and
thief.
I'm. Bethel and Geo. Built tracked the
thief, whose name Is Elijah Warrick, to Sa-
lem, His, and thence they proceeded on past
the residence of hrother-in-law of Warrick's
where Warrick was staying. Two miles
beyond, they learned that Warrck was at
his brother-in-law's. They returned anti
found the bird flown; he had taken bye-path
and was three quarters of an hour ahead.
Messrs. Bethel and Bullitt then left their
horse and buggy at the house and preceded
on foot after the thief, overtaking him riding
easurely a few miles from the house. He
made no resistance. 1t was on Monday
evening week that they took him, and on
Thursday morning they arrived here. War
rick was taken before Squire Robertson and
remanded to Jail to await his trial at the next
term CT the Ciruit Court.
The extensively funny part of this affair
at least to a couple of gentlemen hefe--is the
fact that Mr.. Bethel borrowed the buggy he
had with him, from Franklin, the brother Of
Mr.. George Bullitt. At Salem, the buggy
was recognized by gentleman who had
been searching for it through the State, for
some weeks. But instead of Juggling our
enterprising fellow-citizens, he accompanied
them after the thief and learned that his
horse was in possession of Mr.. Price Phillips,
who had bought it of man passing through
here about two months ago-at the same
time that Mr.. Frank Bullitt had bought the
buggy. The Salem gentleman left his buggy
at home and accompanied Messrs. Bethel q
Eullitt, together with the thief, in two-horse
carriage, to this place, where he got his horse.
He proceeded back home with his two horses
and carriage. Horse-thieving was this time
lucky business for the Salem gentleman,
but awful hard on our Newburgh friends.

FIRST CASE UNDER THE New LAw.-Ou
last Saturday Charles Gauss, the owner of
the old Laux Brewery on Washington street,
just west of Pogue's Creek, was arrested for
selling liquor contrary to law, or for having
it on hand with intent TO sell it, 1t was said
that he had supplied numerous customers
with beer and ale on the night of the 18th.
and that the offence charged can be easily
proved, but we know nothing as to that An
affidavit for oninuance on the ground that
an important witness was absent, was made
and the trial postponed for some days, during
which his counsel promised to examine the
case, and if they thought it within the law
should advise him to "pony up," and not
venture on similar experiment. This is
the right course, and if generally followed
will do much to stop violations of the law.

A Good Stratageu,

The London Times, in an article in rela-
ton to the success of the A lies in the Sea
of A.of, and the capture of the town of Kertch,
speaks out in glowing terms of the impor-
lance of the victory to the Allies, and ex-
plains why SO important post had not be-
fore been gained. The expedition was de-
layed in order to obtain soundings. The
way in which this knowledge was obtained
was as follows:
British naval officer, whose name has,
unfortunately, not yet reached US, captured
a vessel having on board private carriage
belonging to the Russian Governor Of Kertch.
With this "material pledge" in his posses
sion. he sent in polite message to the Gov
ernor, stating that the English cruiser was
unwilling to deprive him of his private prop
erty, and would have great pleasure in re-
storing the carriage to its former owner.
The offer was accepted, and the ships boats
entered the Bay of Kertch, with the vehicle
on board, sounding as they went. By this
means, it was ascertained that there was q
passage for the small steamers 10 within a
short distance of the coast, and the Govern.
or's carriage made track for the British
fleet
This scheme was worthy of the inventive
genius of the wisest and cutest Yankee in
Connecticut. The man who bought five
barrels of shoe pegs, and afterwards found
that they were made of rotten wood ant
therefore useless, sharpened the other emf
OF them and sold them for oats, must hav,
been related to this "British naval officer
whose name has, unfortunately, not ye
reached u.s."

DAILY JOU r NAL,
Railroad Accident.

The Locomotive attached to train of cars
conveying railroad iron from Terre Haute to
Vincennes, ran over two cows last Wednes-
day night about IL o'clock. The locomo-
tive and two cars were thrown from the
track. The former turned over several
times. The engineer jumped safely out,
but the fireman, Jim Maidlow, caught and
had his head and hands badly scalded. The
locomotive was not much damaged, but the
two cows were most badly damaged, SO
much so that they were never known to
kick afterwards.

Judge Shaw, of the Supreme Court, to-

repeal statute is unconstitutional in its pro-
visions, and leaves Vie Revised Statutes in
full force, SO that a committal in accordance
with the old law is valid.
New YORK, June Is, 1855.
Editors of the JournGl:-As you learn
from the papers there is a most decided i'm
provement in money matters here; money is
very plenty for all ordinary and commercial
purposes; indeed the supply is largely above
the demand, and seems TO be on the increase.
Notwithstanding the large amount shipped
to England weekly, the great ease, and low
rates Of interest there, are directing the eyes
of European Capitalists to this country for
investments, as the demand for ordinary pur-
poses canpot absorb the supply, owing prin-
cipaly to the economizing spirit infused into
our people by the late stringency. The
investments are now being largely made in
our Railroad securities, and both bonds and
stocks, but especially the former, are daily
increasing in price, as the demand strength
ems; indeed, bonds that a. few months ago
were a drug in the market, or wholly unsafe
able, are now sought after at advancing
prices 1t looks to me that if we should be
favored with good crops this year in the
West, we shall have greater ease and more
buoyancy in money matters than we have
seen for years. The prospects of our road
are all that could desire, and better than
could have expected, as attention is drawn
to our enterprise, as we come fairly before
