"YoUR ATTENTION, DEMoCRATs."-A- sub.
scriber at cambridge writes US that our pa
per occasionally reaches that place via Greene
vile. We know but little of the mail, regu-
lations in that direction; but we do know
there is direct mail communication between
Knoxville and cambridge, and that there is
no sort of excuse for the mistake our cor
respondent aluies TO. The Gods truth Of
the matter is, there never has been period in
the history Of the Post Office Department
when its business generally was 50 much
disarrangrd or so miserably managed; and
it is not likely to improve as long MS the De-
pnrtment continues as it is nj present-a
mere political machine, by tbs use of which
the administration wreaks its ire upon the
heads of those who have the nudacity to rldi-
cule its follies and oppose and seek to cor
rect its errors. We trust the time will again
come when capacity, and not party devotion,
-hali be the pre.emincnt test Of mems fitness
for public station. Under the present rcek-
less management, we don't look for much
Improvement in Post Offices or mail facilities.
The "hcad Of the concern" has too much other
business on hand.

The NORTH SIDE OF SEBAsToPoL.-At the
latest adyices the allies were not in posses
sion of the north side of Sebastopol where
the Notifications are of great strength and
command, on their elevated position, the op.
posite shore. An American who is serving
as an officer of the medical staff in the Rus
sian army, gives the following description of
the forts on the north side of the bay:
"On the north side of the bay is also a sue
cession Of hills, some of which are very high,
and running in every direction. You find on
them all bastions facing in every direclion.-
These bastons and ndoubts extend up the
bay for Il mile or so from the city, aud some
Of them ARE very effective, pouring nearly n
continual stream Of balls across the bay into
the enemys battery which is nearest the bay.
think it very doubtful whether the French
would be able to hold this city for any length
of time if they conld get possession of it,,
from the fact that the hills on the north side
are taller than those on the south, and the
city and the batteries on them, think, would
force them to leave it, In the main, they
have been attempting this from the land on
the south side will finish this by saying
that it is the best fortified place ever saw.

SUPPLIES FOR FRANCE.-A New York let
ter says: 1t is very currently reported that
the Government of France having become
fully satisfied that their crops will be largely
deficient have sent to this country large Of
ders for both -four and wheat and that the
transactions of their agents in the above arli-
cles are restricted by the extreme scarcity,
and consequently high rates of ireighis. 1t is
extremely difficult to satisfactorily ascertain
how much dependence to place in the report,
but it is a fact beyond dispute, that nearly all
the flour brought into the New York market
within the past ten days for export, has been
for France.

continue in operation under their licenses
which runs till May next issued before the
passage of the present law. Since others have
been arrested on the charge of selling con-

law will be tested.

County Court of Blount, having at their July
term suspended, until The October term, the
collection of the Rail Road taxes levied at the
July term previous for that purpose; and the
court at the October inst. fern having failed

of July which expired by its own limitation,
it wilnov devolve upon the tax collector, as
we understand it is his Intention to do, 10

Taxes for the year 1855. 1t is hoped that
the people generally will cheerfully respond
to his demands and thereby suffer no injury

the skill and vigor OF the respective beliger-

answers the enquiry what is gained by the
fall of Sebastopo!:
All that the Allied powers could desire,
and all that RUSSIA, putting forth the whole
might Of her Empire, strove to avoid-the
annIhilation of the Muscovite power on the
Black Sea; the release of Turkey from i'm
pending destruetiun; the restoration Of the
Caucasian tribes to that perfect liberty they
have struggled so long to retain; the release
of the Turkish principaites from protecto
rate which was gradually changing into a
sovereignty; the free navigation of the Dan
ube; the contraction of the Russian Empire
to the South within boundaries not easily
overstepped, and the destruction, for many
years yet to come, OF all hope of Russian
progress as a maritime power.
