Sebastopol from the Inside.

An American physician, attached to the
Russian army, has written letter to the
Providence Journal, dated Sebastopol. De.
cember 26th. After describing the situation
of the town and beautiful views from the
walls, he continues:
"Three days ago l crossed the bay for
the first time, passed several hours in the
city, had the honor of dining with General
Ostensacken, who has lately taken the de-
fence of the city, and was most cordially re.
ceived. .Aid.de- Camp Rumini conducted
me to the cupcla Of a house used as place
of observation, on the side of the city near
est the French works, which commands a
perfect view of the entire English and French
batteries, and Of their encamPment: lhe
trenches of the French are little within
500 feet of the outer lines of the Russian
batteries, but believe they have approach;
ed no nearer than they were two weeks ago:

the Boulevards; and as listened the music
was rendered more plaintive, and even more
touchingly sublime, by the oft.repeated Peals
of the cannon, ever and anon intermingling
their deep and terrific bass
"The military operations, as conducted al
present, consist only of more or less firing
from the different bastions during the day,
and occasionally at night some pretty hot
cannonading. To witness at night at these
times, the rapidly succeeping flashes of the
guns, the bombs, like balls Of fire, perform.
ing their beautiful curves through the air,
and to hear the terrible whizzing of the balls,
is peculiarly and fearfully interesting
Chritmas has passed here without anything
whatever to remind me of the delightful
and merry Christmas holidays of home.
The Russian Christmas comes twelve day
later, as their dates are 80 much behind ours.
The climate here is not severe, with very
little snow during the winter. Last night it
was sufficiently cold to freeze up the mud,
of which, in rainy weather, the depth is ac-
tually frightful; and for the weather to-day,
nothing could be finer, clear, right and it is
only at long intervals that we hear the re-
port Of cannon"

Gen, Houston and Slavery.

The Boston Atlas makes merry over
lecture upon slavery, recently delivered in
that city by this notorious individual. "lt

but certainly weaker defence Of slavery
than Gen. Houston's we do not remember
to have read," and owe cannot hel think
ing that he is not very deeply enamored of
the institution" &c. Now, it is by Just such
precious specimens of sycophancy, and mean
catering to Northorn prejudices as this, that
the cause Of the South suffers in the eyes of
her enemies. Here is Southern Senator,

SuallV Times,

The political cauldron in Washington has
been bubbling and boiling famously. AS the
session has approached its conclusion the
members have grown more and more impa-
tient and irritable. They have had 10 work
hard, and hard work does not agree with
them. They solace themselves by attack
ing each other spitefully and rending the
Union in pieces. The abolitionists and free
soiers are perfectly rampant, and avow
their determination to bring the nose Of the
South to the grindstone. Seward says the
Southern talk about the dissolution of the
Union is very laughable to him; that he has
heard the cry of "wolf! wolf~ too long to
indulge any fears on account of it. There
is no doubt that he is sincere in this declara-
ton, and that other Northern agitators seri.
ously entertain the Same idea To talk Of
dissolution of the Union seems to these men
mere Observation-Disclosures, NONSENSE
They laugh at it, and will proceed in their
purpose and plans, wholly unmoved by it.
1t is considered by intelligent observers
more than probable that one of the great
schemes of the aboltionists will be trium-
phantly carried through Congress next win
ter--the abolition of slavery in the District
of Columbia. Should the measure pass
Congress, the President of course will veto
it. But the abolitionists will have shown
their strength, and the South will 30 longer
be able to close its eyes to the future. 1t
must wake up and combine its energies
then, or never. But let us have no more
talk or menace. Let us lay aside words for
deeds, and party for country. Decided and
unanimous action on the part of the South
may yet save the country from the perils
which menace it, and preserve from over.
throw and ruin the fairest form Of free gov
ernment on the face of the earth.
We would warn these Northern agitators,
but that we know the warning would fall on
deaf ears, that their course will bring upon
this country all the horrors of disunion and
civil war--that, though there may have been
false alarms of wolf, the wolf is now really
at the door. They will construe the warn.
ing as a menace, and "laugh" al the childish
folly. Our only hope is in the frn7hess, the
moderation and the unity of the South.
