RUSSIAN VIEW OF THE CASE.

The Russian paper, the Brussels NOrd, says the
resolution OF Prince Gofchakof exhibits the energy
of a great commander. 1t saves Russia from an in
e1tricabe position into which false Interpretation
ola peiDt Of honor would have thrust her. The Rus
sian army concentrated north Of Sevastopol will
bepceforh have that unity of movement and action
which until now it has wanted. The Sevastopol ofthe
South il replaced by Sevastopol of the NORTH
formidable position, b,istng with innumereble guns,
which compact army henceforward will defend.
Impartial history will do justice TO Prince Gorchakof,
who, by making momeDtary sacrifice and avoiding
useless euson Of blood has preserved for Russia an
army trained to war by struggle Of years duration,
and placed that army in position which enables him
10 command the situation.

FIEsDIsH THlEvEs.-The st. Louis Re
publican gives the following account Of
thieving at the Gasconade Bridge, at the
time OF the late terrible accident
One man was discovered attempting 10
steal the watch of Mr.. Schue,ze, who lay
apparently insensble in one Of the cars for
several hours. He had succeeded in get
ting the watch, when he was observed,
nd such threats made as convinced him
that it was best for him to give il up. 1t
was intended TO delain him, but in the ex
element of the moment he made his es.
cape. Others lost money in the same way.
AZ soon as the accident happened, men
seemed to flock in from the surrounding
country, although no houses were to be
seen, and it is a most forbidding part of the
country for set lement. Where they
came from, and in such storm Of light
ming and thunder and rain, is a mystery !;
but they were there, ready to rob the dead,
and to pick whatever valuables could be
found in the general confusion which fol.
lowed for h' urs afterwards.

MYsTERIoUs.-The English papers state
that no ordinary sensation has been excited
in Goucestershirs lately by The sudden
and unaccountable disappearance Of a
clergyman few hours before his intended
marriage with young bride, the daughter
OF magistrate, and gentleman OF wealth
and influence. The church at the appoint.
ed time was crowded, triumphal arches had
been erected, and the children of a charity
school were present to cast flowers ON the
path, and men were in the beliry to ring
the bells F; but the marriage party did not
approach. The clergyman, it appeared,
had been with his expec,ant bride the eve
ming before, and had then left Tor hur-
red visit to Devcnshire.
