THE KERTscH Observation-Disclosures OF
THE HOUSES, &c.-The London Times cores
pondent, who accompanied the kertsch eXpedi-
ton, records many instances Of barbarous vic.
lence and destruction Of the property of the un-
fortunate inhabitants of the town, protesting,
however, that the outrages are not so much as
cribable to the French and English soldiery, as
to the Tartar ruffians, who remained, and to the
Turks:
ain the afternoon of the day on which we
occupied Yenikale, the crews Of some merchant
ships from Ambsaki landed and began to break
into three or four houses which had been closed
and fastened up, and to pillage the contents. AS
they could not remove the heavy furniture, they
smashed it to atoms. Towards evening Turkish
stragglers from the camp and others who had
fallen out of the line of march, flocked into the
town and perpetrated the most atrocous crimes.
To pillage and wanton devastation, they added
violation and murder
1.-THE Tartars who were in the town hailed
the arrival of the Osmani with delight, and re-
ceiycd them as berators, and as brethren to
whom they were bound by the ties of religion,
OF language, and of hatred to the Russians. 1t
was with difficulty that the French controlled the
eScesses Of the Turks, and of some of their own
countrymen. Some English merchant sailors
next day aided in the work of pillage and de.
struction.
New INVENTION. an article in the AL
bany IN. W Argus we learn that a Yankee has
discovered IN invention by which to drive Il
steamboat through the Maine Liquor Law, or a
coach-and.four, if you will. The style of the
new liquor, as filed in the Patent Olficie ut
Washington, is:
GA new and useful Improvement on manufac-
tured malt liquor beverages, whereby new
of matter is produced, which may
be denominated gastricized ale, beer, porter, &c.
as the case may be-"
The specifications particularly describe the
process of manufacture OF this liquor beverage
which, however, we will not repeat here, rs they
might be tedious to the reader, and it perhaps
would not, in the present state Of the matter, he
just to the inventor to give them publicity. The
idea, however, is that by the introduction of GER
tain chemical principles and substances, beve.
rage is produced which greatly laids digestion
1t appears from the papers on which the pa
tent has been issued, that this discovery can be
applied in connestion with the present process
of manufacturing beer, ale, porter, &C., without
the slightest difficulty or additional expense.
1t is obvious enough that question may at
once arise as to the application Of prohiLilory
liquor laws to this new "gastricized malt liquor
Under the laws of the United States, the patent
secures i" the inventor, his heirs, administrators
executors, or assigns" "the full and exclusive
right and liberty Of making, using, and vending
to others to be used, The said invention or dis.
covery," and it is supposed that no State laws
can restrict or interfere with this right thus given
by the laws of the Union.

IMPORTANT RUMoR.--A London letter states
that there is serious split in the English Cabi.
net. Lord John Russell, the great upsetter Of
Governments, wishes to overthrow Lord Palmer.
ston and to form Cabinet himself, and the op.
portunity is now at hand, the Premier having
prepared the Cabinet council for rousing OF
the nationalites, that is to say, for trying TO do
something for Poland. Lord John disapproves Of
such revolutionary measures, not because in the
long run the Poles might be left in the lurch, in
spite of the high-sounding promises of Lord
Palmerston, but because he hates contemporary
revolution. He likes it in the past, but fears it
in the present, since it seems to him LOO DANCE.
rous an experiment 1t can scarcely be doubled
that the Queen, and Prince Albert still more
fully agree with Lord John, but Napoleon is
rather favorable to the scheme.
TowN WITHOUT CoUNcIL.-The members
of the Council, elected this spring, having de-
termned to pursue 4 "no license" policy, were
applied TO by the present keeper Of the Winns
boro Hotel for 4 tavern license, and consistently
with their preceding acts and declarations, re
fused to grant it. Whereupon petition wa:
presented to them, signed by Il very large and
respectable body of citizens, praying that license
should be granted. The Council, very properly
respecting petition SO largely signed, and feel
ing at the same time incompetent TO comply with
the petition, without violating their conscences
have resigned.
We regret that circumstances should have SC
transpired as to induce them to pursue this
course. 1t is as respectable and intelligent 4
Council as the town has ever had. We have
not learned whether direct issue of license
or no license" will be made 1t is thought by
some that it will not. A few days, however, will
