ARREST FOR PoLYGAMY.-Peter Lane,
member of Pehams's Burlesque Opera troupe
was arrested on Saturday evening, at the Ad-
ans House, on the charge of indulging in one
more wife than the law allows outside of Tur-
KEY and Mormondom. 1t appears that Lane
married, on Tuesday last, in this city, Ann
Collins. member of the troupe. 1t further
appears that Peter married, on the 18th OF
July last, at Philadelphia, one Ann Miller
The latter arrived in town on Saturday after
noon from Philadelphia, and proceeded al
once to the Adams House. The scene which
followed was more earnest than agreeable
The t,co wives and one husband made so sig
nifcant demonstrations, that the police OF
Station House, were called in. Peter was
taken to the Station House, where poygamy
was charged upon him. He denied the corn,
whereupon his first wife produced two letters
written in this city, on Jan. 9th and and 5oth,
addressed to her as his wife, duly signed aS
her husband. The case is a queer one anu
will be duly treated in the legal way.-B0s'0H

THE NEWS.
TIE Mar.


The Atlantic brings Liverpool dates to the
9th ult. The chief interest of her news cen
tres in the proceedings Of the British Parlia-
ment the Government having been severely
denounced for It's management of the war
| The resignation Of Lord John Russell II was
thought only preceded total break up of the
ministry. The dates from Sebastopol are to
the l4th of January. The Russians had made
two sorties, and were repulsed with consider
| able loss.
| Considerable reinforcements are. reaching the
allied armies. An army of 10000 Russians,
with battery OF 80 guns, is said to be at
Perekop. Letters from the Crmea state that
the French had mined the Flag-sta battery,
| and only awaited a favorable opportunity to
blow it up. The sickness is increasing in the
camps of the allies. General Menschikoff is
reported to have said, s'Our troops may now
rest Generals January, February and March
will fight our battles better than we can ?''-
The Russians have repaired and re-occupied
the Quarantine fort. General Brown is about
to resume his command in the Crimea. The
allies are about 10 establish a hospital to can
tain 1000 men, at Smyrna, and also an eStab-
iishment for the canvalescent at Rhodes. The
Russians report numerous desertions from the
allies to the Russian ranks. a letter from
Odessa, under date OF the 9th of January,
says that the Russians will shortly assume the
offensive in the Crimea, having received the
necessary reinforcements. Large bodies of
Russian troops have been ordered to concen-
trate at Perekop, with the view of attacking
Eupatoria. 1t was reported at Vienna on the
q til that battle had been fought before Sc
bastopol, and that the Russians were victori-
Gus. The authentic advices from Balaklava
the next day contradicted the report. 1t is
positively asserted that Omer Pacha's forces
were to begin operations on the 18th of JanT-
airy, advancing under cover of the artillery of
the fleets along the coast. The last of the
Turkish conveys left Varna on the 14th for
Baiakava. \ despatch from Gen. Menschi-
koff, under date of the 18th, has been publish
ed at St. Petersburg. 1t is to the following
effect:-''The siege operations do not advance.
Two successful night sorties were made on
the 18th and 18th. We took fourteen English
and French prisoners The allies lost con-
siderable number in killed. The Arab de-
Serters say that the Turks are treated with
very little consideration by the allies.

UNITED STATES SENATOR.

The Convention which met on Tuesday, for
the election of U. S. Senator, ,after two unsuc
cessful ballots, adjourned until next Tuesday
a-week. On the second ballot CAMERON re-
ceived sixty votes. Sixty-six would have cleo
ted him. In our next we will give a history of
the whole affair, and the Protest of those who
withdrew from the American Caucus. The ad-
joUrnment of the Convention was considered
equivalent to defeat of Gen. Cameron. We
believe, however, that he viii be elected.
