THIS. THAT, AND THE OTHER.

GSeventy four of the cyprian Migrants Of
New York, recently arrested on the streets by
order of Mayor Wood, and by him sent to the
penitentiary, have been discharged by Judge
ROOSEVELT, before whom they were brought
on writs of habeas corpus. The n. Y. Times
of the Sd states that in consequence of the
ruling ofthe Courts no arrests of cyprians were
made the previous night, and says:-"A vigi-
liant eye will be kept on them in future, how
ever. The patrolmen have received orders to
arrest any woman guilty of breach of the
peace by acting in disorderly or indecent
manner, or by blocking the sidewalks, &c.
The recent action Of the Mayor, it will be
seen, will have, at all events, salutary effect
in compelling the street walkers to be little
more circumspect in their conduct on the
street"

lie yields his broad-axe and works into shape

To Lucy in Heaven.

The rose that from its parent stem,
BY Death thus rudely riven,
Now shines in glorys diadem,
A brighter flower in Heaven.
Fairwas its mom--and bright its noon
And sweet its closing even;
But fairer, brighter, far, = will bloom
In its own native Heaven.
That voice now hushed In death-that smile
On earth given
To cheer Onr hearts-our cares beguile-
They swell the joys of Heaven.
Dear loved and lost one-none know
How sore our hearts are riyen-
may the hope thus lost below
Spring up in Heaven.

REvIvALs.-The interest on the subject Of
religion, says the Madison Banner, which
has been almost universally absorbing the
minds of the community in this place is I'M
abated. Meetings are still held morning and
evening in nearly all our churches, and at
the sound of the eight O'Clock bell, people
&. from every direction may be seen issuing from
their houses, and going with swift feet to the
various houses of worship. Much of the in
terest IS felt by the young, though not confined
to them, it is beautiful to see their heads
bowed in humble alteration to the Author of
their being. Religion adorns the character
of every one, but in the young, we think it
particularly lovely. 1t is safeguard, too,
from many temptations which beset the path
way of life, and many habits which are ruin
Gus to the happiness as well a prosperity of
the individual. 1t prepares them for living
usefully and dying happily, and we rejoice
to see so many taking upon themselves the
pleasures of religious life.

FROM THE WAR.

The Atlantic arrived yesterday afternoon, bring
ing no precise details Of the recent battle on the
Chcrnaya though adding some important facts to
our general knowledge Of the event. With regard
10 the bombardmcnt Of Swcaborg we have the OF
fetal reports Of Admiras Pcnaud and Dundns,
which wo Of course copy in this paper They
fully confirm the judgment We have already OK
pressed upon that affair. II IN true The London
Times, as is natural during the Queens visit in
France rcsolutely secs everything in oonleur dc
yose md insists upon crediting the destruction of
the town of Sweaborg, the Gibraltar Of the
North" However another London journal al
rcndy admits that such ia the nature Of the great
bombardment Of Swcaborg, that all that can be
said IL that it il conjectured that considerable
" loss has been inflicted upon tho enemy by
means of connngration II does not appear that
" we have gained much. Seriously, the success is
neither brilliant In IA true sense. nor Is 1t solid
" All the work has yet to be done in the Baltic"
There has also appeared letter from Admiral Ma
pier admitting the SwcabOrg bOmbardment 10 have
been, on the whole, failure, because Of its not
having damaged the Russian sea defenscs.
IA to TIE botte in the Chernaya, it is impos.
sbe to como 10 correct judgment before
mere detailed accounts have been published
All must depend on the question tn what degree
the bai tie was confined to the deGlo passages of
the Chernays, and how far tho hight Of the
water made the river "A serious obstacle. Win
out such an obstacle before the French front,
the result Of the battle was disgraccful f,r the
Russians. On the contrary, il it was the object
Of the Russian attack to force deflcs which it
was impossible to outhank, the heavy loss in
ficted upon them is explained at once, and then
the battle may be considered honorable for both
parties. At all events, it remains difficult to
understand why the Russians did not even at
tempt a flank mancuvor through the valley OF
Baidsr. At any rate, it is now sure that the
Russians are unable to drive the Allie, from
the plateau and the CheInsya line.
The news of an assault on Malakof may be ex-
pected to arrive with the next steamer Should
II fail, the Allies would find their situation much
deteriorated should it be crowned with success,
an event by no means impossible, although success
must be bought at an enormous expense OF life,
the southern side would still not be lost to the
Russians, unless they should be compelled to
eyacuate il for want of provisions Still the Allies
might then indulge the hope Of clearing that side
before the beginning Of the Winter campaign
Why such an assault has not yet taken place is q
matter of uncertainty. Gen Simpson had an
nounccd il for the 18th of August, but this was
mistake. II can hardly be supposed to have taken
place before the 3lst ult., the day when the Gu
nsrd steamer was to leave Liverpool.

BY their constituents, have since received at the
hands of the President the reward of their
treason. A Fusion" Of all the elements
Of resistance to Slavery Extension was seasonably
effected last year, by means Of which en- entire
An.iNebraska Delegation was chosen to the next
House, with State Ticket of like principles by .
majority exceeding Seventy thousand. So utter
and overwhelming rout had not been known in
the history Of the State.
