The SCENES OF THE WAR.--A letter from
the camp before Sevastopo, describing the
scenes of the war, says that piles of shot were
found in every ravine, that every watercourse
is full of iron and that guns are buried in the
e,,;;h on al! sides. The writer adds:
at was only yesterday that passed some
five or six English cannon, appareliss''yy thirty
two Founders, which had been flung down the
side of the ravine from the French battery
overlooking the dock yard creek, and were
lying upside down in the ground. The artil'
lery are daily engaged in singing guns and
mortars and sending them down TO Balakava
for shipment. 1t is calculated that the Rus.
slams fired about 10000 tons of iron at US. II
is certain we gave them 1000 tons in return,
and possibly the French fred about 10000
tons; so that between 10000 and 10000 toas
weight of iron must be lying round about the
plateau"

THE PRosPEcr IN KRNTUcKY.-The change

mani towards the dangerous doctrines Of Know
Nothngism, is aptly illustrated by the relative
strength of the party presses. Just prior TO
the guberDatorial election last August the
Know Nothing papers out numbered the Dem.

of eleven-now the list stands Democratic,
nineteen; Know Nothing, nineteen; and lnde-

Twelve months a number Of Know Nothing

THE BkooEs AND SUMNER AFFAIR.-The
conduct Of Col Brooks in chastising Senator
Sumner for the attack Of the latter on Scna-
tor Butler, Is somewhat palliated by the fact
that Mr.. 3. is the nephew Of Senator Butler.
who was absent when the premediIated as
sault on his character was made by Senator
Sumner. The Senate was not in session
when the chassiscment was inflicted upon Sum
ner. He had exhausted himSelfin in set phrases
of denunciation and rdicule against Mr.. But
ler, using every term Of reproach he could ut
ter. Mr.. Cass said he bad listened to Mr..
Summers speech with equal regret and surprise.
It was the most un-Amerlcan and unpa;;riotc
speech he had ever heard in Inc Senate, and
he hoped he miph, never hear such a speech
again be..e or elsewhere.
Mr. Douglas adverted TO the maligirity which
characterized Mr.. Summers speech, and the
many personalities in which it abounded. That
speech was written and committed to memory
and practiced before glass, with negro boy
holding the candle and watching the gestures.
1t was rehearsed to friends. and they repeated
in the saloons of the city, what he was going
to say. Those libels aud insults, so gross, so
vulgar had been carried over and written with
cool, deliberate maignity, and repeated night
after night, in order 10 End the 0pproWia'e
grace to spit them at men who differ from
him.
Mr. Mason said that political relations. in
obedience to the forms Of cur Foyernment,
bring Senators into associations which, beyond
The walls Of the Senate chamber, is dishon.
or. and the touching Of his hand would be pol
luiiou. They were compelledto listen 10 Ian
guage here, to ehich 10 gentlemen would give
ear elsewhere
In reply Mr Sumrcf compared Senator
Douglas 10 a skunk.

We observe that all our exchanges, those
the mos, opposite in their political sentiments
and sympathies agree in opinion that Mr.
Champions dismissal by our Government was
unavoidable, and that to have permitted him
to continue longer in his official capacity would
have been wanting in proper self.respect.-
Even abolition and black-republican journals
concur in this opinion.
The correspondent of the Phiadephla
American says there is little doubt entertained
that the British government will promptly re-
taliate by giving Mr. Dallas his passport, thus
leaving diplomatic intercourse suspended until
it shall be renewed by explanation or interven-
ton for an amicabIe adjustment, which may he
easily accomplished.
The same correspondent writes:
"Mr Champion explains his statement in
regard to Mr.. Clayton by asserting that the
latter called on him to examine some old Eng
lsh maps on which Ruatan and Jamaica were
designated and coored in the same way,
whereupon Mr., Clayton admitted that both
were evidently claimed as British possessions.
at is possible that misnpprehension might
have occurred in that instance, but she explain
alton does not cover the points involved in the
declaration of Mr.. Clayton, and corroboaed
by Senators Crittenden and Fish. 1t is sup
POSED now MIR. Champion will make some

ARSENIC EArING.---A French lady, of fine
personal appearance and elegantly dressed,
asked yesterday, in drug store, kept by an
acquaintance, on Montgomery street, Tor an
ounce of arsenic The proprietor of the store
asked her how she intended to use the arse
mic. She replied that she wanted to eat it.
He said he would not give her anything TO poi
son herself with. She said she did not want
to poison herself; she supposed the apotheca-
ry knew that many people used arsenic in very
small quantities to improve the health and rem
der the complexion clear. He remarked that
he did not know any such thing, and he was
astonshed to hear her say so. She requested
him to look well at her face; there was no
paint or powder on it, yet her skin was finer
and her complexion more beautiful than those
of any woman in San francisco. Her skin
was at one time, she said, quite coarse. The
gentleman replied that he had often admired
tho beauty Of her Complexion, and what she
said might all be true about the beneficial ef
fects Of eating arsenic: but he had determined
to be extremely careful in the manner in which
he dealt out posons, and he must refuse on
this occasion. He begged her not to take Of
fence at him-he esteemed her very much !;
but he said he had found from long experience
that women were dangerous in proportion as
they were beautiful The lady was li.he In.
dignant at the refusal, but went away modified
at the idea that she was very dangerous San

1t is estimated that the number of envelopes

girl will apply the gum to 10000 or 10 900 in
a day, and from 5000 to 1000 may be folded
in the same time. In these processes the gills
acquire great cecrry and skill being stimuli
