of this place is perhaps greater than that Of

Helisnsfors, which contaius one of the largest

The province Of Finland is of great impor-
lance to Russia. for 1t is from thence mostly
that she draws her supplies of sailors and

Sweaborg should not yield to the same newt
able fate The works, indeed. are sad to BE-
blasted from solid rock, and may possess more
strength than any masonry constructed by thu

avert the result. The object Of the Allie,

shake the strongest nerve and slcken the Stout
est heart The cries of the mangled human pc
ings, who were buried beneath the chaotic
wrecks of material, almost pals,6ed the senses
and disabled lte arms of the few who werv so
fortunate as to be able to render assistance.-
Those however who could extrieGte themselves,
and were not disabled by injuries. assisted by
the residents in the vicinity, set themselves to
work to remove their unfortunate companions
from the ruins. 1t was some time, though, be-
fore their task was completed, timbers. iron
wheels and axles being piled upon them IN
confused mass and, alas, there were too many
who could not appreciate their iabors. who teit
not the heavy weight upon them--they were
dead, Those who got out alive we're, almost
without exception, injured in greater or less
degree, and many were so seriously hurt that
their lives were despaired of, and the injuries
sustained were of every description and charae-
ter imaginable. There we're broken legs and
arms, haf-scalped heads and fractured skulls,
and every conceivable kind of flesh wounds.
Among the killed, was a middle aged lady,
who was travelling with daughter Of about
fourteen or fifteen years. The body of the
mother was removed from the spot on bier, fol-
lowed by the stricken child, believing the path
she trod with tears Of the intensest grief.
Another lady, who was supposed to be from
Patterson. had her head severed from the body,
and they were found few feet apart, with the
hat still upon the head and the ribband still un-
fastened from about the chin.
A man who attempted to escape by Jumping
was caught between the cars as they went over
the embankment, and his body completely cut
in two just above the hips.

THE TRUTH OF HISTORY.

HBNRY s. FoorE. late United States Senator
from Mississippi, now Of California, recently
made speech at Marysville, in which he
made on allusion to the back-door transac-
tons of 1850, by which Fillmore, Foote and
other compromisers were brought into friendly
political association He says:-
1.-The patriotic portion of the old Wing
party, which adhered to Clay, Webster, and
Fillmore was, day by day, diminishing both
in numbers and, courage, and were openly
complaining of being made the victims OF a
most relentless persecution, on account OF its
national affinties. 1t was discovered by sew
eral persons who had the honor then of being
in the Senate, that it had become necessary to
put an end to this great and growing evil !;
and the humble individual who now addresses
you, one day rose in his place in that body,
and declared, for himself und other Senators
with whom he had consulted, that they had
resolved to tear up the evils alluded to by the
roots, by refusing, in all cases. to confirm the
nominations which could be traced to certain
official parsonage (pointing at the moment to
the chair occupied by the celebrated Senator
from New York; and expressing the belief
that the political heresy of Free Soil would
be effectually extirpated so soon as the aspir-
ing young men of the North could be taught
the salutary lesson, and the pathway to ofh-
cial elevation did not lie over the ruins of the
Federal Constitution.
IL had not long taken my seat before Mr..
Badger, of North Carolina, one of the purest
and most patriotic men that has ever occupied
place in the national councils, came to me
and stated that Vice-P President Fillmore, then
presiding officerin the Senate, had request him
to make known to me that he perfectly con-
Cured in the views which l had just express.
ed, and that he would be pleased to have an
interview with me on the subject, in his off.
cial room in the Capital, at the hour of nine
o'clock next morning. | promised to attend
upon him at the time and place specified.
did SO.
Without going fully into particulars at
present, it is sufficient for me to say. that
obtained, by the direction of Mr.. Fillmore
from the hands of an accredited friend of his
list of the nominees subject to the objection
of being violent agtators Of the question Of
slavery. This whole catalogue of worthes
was disposed of in the Senate; in other words
they were sacrificed to the peace of the coun
try save one or two, whose nominations re
NAMED to be acted upon on the last night O
that session of Congress.
They were disposed Of by Mr.. Fillmore
himself, on that same night; for, just before
the clock of the Senate struck twelve, thi
gentleman, being then President, sent in
special message, Withdrawing all the offensiv,
nominations, and substituting others in the
stead"

braska party had come to think, that if the
government. could pillage whole States from
freedom, they might certainly pillage little
from the treasury.
A lust and equal basis of taxation was also
wsntea-aax upon what 4 man had. and not no
what he had not "A reduction was also neces-
sary in taxes He knew several points in which
it could very properly be made.
But Democrats said they could not act with
the wings. He called himself Democrat
according to the Jetfcrsonian idea of Democra-
ey-a Democrat in the original sense of the
.Ford-of popular government. His colleague
in the Senate called himself Wing, and yet
they had voted alike on almost every question.
and now they stood together in the party OF
the people.
| In truth, there were but two parties. On1
the party.of the people, and the other OF the
shareholders, and of their advocates and sbet-
tors. Ifyhow and then man left the party oil
