MAGAZINE ujsprR THE RrpAs.--An extract

MAGAZINE UNDER THE REDAN--An extract
of letter from Sebastopol; processes to show
how the Redan escaped being blown up by
the Russians, like the other forts: "A sapper,
who was exploring the batteries Of the Re-
dan just as the Russians were evacuating the
town, discovered large cable, which he cut
in two by n blow Of an axe, and then called
the attention of the officers to it. On further
examination, it was found to be u thick inc
tallic wire, covered with n coating Of gutta
percha. This wire led to avery large powder
magazine, dug under the Rcdan, the discov-
cry of which made the boldest tremble when
they thought of the frightful explosion from
which they had escaped. The wire came
from across the town rs far as the sea,
which it crossed to tho other shore, from
whence the electric spark was TO be despatch.
ed to set fire to that volcano. II was dscov-
cred just at the nvk of time, as the last SOL
diers had not evacuated the town when the
forts blew up one after the other, filling the
trenches with the ruins. The Careening Fort,
the Flagstaff Battery, the Central Bastion, the
forts of the bay, the arsenals, and all the prin.
cipal edifces, crumb!ed to the ground be.
meath the combined action of shells, fire and
mines. The Redan and Malakof alone re.
mained outstanding, the former saved by the
sapper and the latter saved by shell, which
directed by Providence, had cut the electric
wire in two.

FEARFUL CAsUAITY.-Last night about
nine O'Clock we were startled by tremcn-
deus noise as if occasioned by the falling of
some large building and soon our usually
quiet city was aroused by the cry of fire.
Upon repairing to the scene Of the excite.
ment, we found large concuurse of our cit.
liens in front OF the extensive brick range
on Peach Tree street, exhibiting the most
intense feeling. We soon ascertained that
the alarm of fire was false one, but that
the large three story brick store of Mr.. l.. p.
Grant, had fallen in, and buried under its
ruins number of persons. So soon ms. the
noise could be qneled, the perilous condition
of these unfortunate individuals was ascer.
tanned and by the most praiseworthy efforts
of several who labored at the risk of life, five
of our citizens were rescued from imminent
death.
Strange to say, although every floor in
the building, the roof included, fell in upon
them, there was not life lost or limb bro
ken, though two ur three who were caught
under the ruins were so covered with rub
Dish and limbcrs that they could not move
and had to be cut out of their awful contnc
ment with axes. the cause of the crash, il
is Supposed, was the storage of II largeamoun
of salt in the first story Of the building

No such internal lie is conceded at ALL
There are some Aboli,onists, in the free
States, to be sure, but they will poll in 1856
no greater vote than they polled in 1852, or
1913. The contest in the free States in 1856
will be between the Americans and anti
Americans-just as will DO the contest in the
slave States-between men who love their
country and reverence the patriots of old, and
are guided by their maxms ofwisdom, and
between the demagogucs and their hordes,
who, sacrificing principle, nationality and
every other sacred thing, would kiss the
Pope's great toe, and sell America for thirty

The TEACHINGS OF SCIEScE.-A writer in
an English paper stated "that the noon sha
dow of church tower in his neighborhood
had SO altered since his remembrance that il
was now in arrears two hours" A scientific
gentleman has replied, and says the statement
is delusion, as such an alteration would in.
dictate . change of about fifteen degrees in
the situation Of the earth's axis or poles
which would necessarily involve second de.
LUCE and the ruin of everything on the face
of the globe. The writer closes his Article
in the following Words
"ln conclusion, may observe that the roll.
ing earth cannot swerve an atom from its
course, nor the great globe of day transgress
its path by one degree that the vast machine
ry of the spheres and the gorgeous fabric Of
the heavens are framed upon principles thai
cannot fail, and governed by laws that know

TRADING TOO MUcH.-From late pam
phlet on "the Currency" attributed to Mr..
Robert Hooper, of Boston, we extract the
following remarks IN the fallacy of running
into debt for foreign fabrics:
"The loans negotiated abroad may have
been convenient ut the time to the parties
who borrowed the money; but all that was
received for them and all that was brought
into the country in consequence of them was
an increased quantity of foreign merchandise
to be sold in competition with the products
of our domestic industry. All that remains
now of those loans is the obligation to send
back the amount of them ut some future
time. In the interim we must transmit NJ,
annual tribute for the interest on them. II
is estimated that this annual tribute now
amounts TO about twenty millions of dollars
and an examination of the official tables o.
the annual imports and exports will prov.
this to be not far from the truth"
