OAIER,

SHOT AND SHELL AROUND SEyAsToPoL.-As to COL
iecting and removing these missiles, which sown
broadcast in the very soil, like pebbles beach,
for the space of seven miles in length and two miles
in breadth, the task is hopeless of execution. Piles
of shot have been formed in every ravine and stand
there monuments of the uselessness ofsuch efforts
as have yet been made to gather the iron shower
which fell for eleven long months in front of Sevas-
topol. Every watercourse is full of iron SHE'LL shot
and splnters of strange shapes abound in every
ravne. The Russians will only have to collect what
the Allies leave behind them to form large magazines
Of shot-but shell will not be so plentiful, as they
were more sparingy used and were generally dam
aged if they did not burst. Guns too, are buried
in the earth and peer out from the earthwork of
overthrown batteries.
1t was only yesterday passed some five six
fine English cannon, apparently 32.pounders, which
had been flung down the side of the ravine from
the French battery overlooking the Dockyard and
Creek and were lying upside down in the ground.
The artillery daily engaged in Sinking guns and
mortars, and sending them down to Ba;aklava for
shipment 1t is calculated that the Russians fred
about 10000 uns of iron at US. 1t is certain that
we gave them l 900 tuns in return, and possibly
the French fired about 90, 600 uns SO that between
10000 and 10000 tuns weight of iron must be lying
about on the plateau.

"DoN'T W oRRy."-Ths is the first thing an editor
should get by heart. If Mr. Slocum threatens to
withdraw his patronage because you criticised Pro-
fessor Drawl's lecture on the onion question: don't
worry-but tell him t. 60 ahead and do it.
ing that if you don't stop writing about the Did
dlcton Railroad, he will ruin you with a law suit
don't worry, but dare him to try it on.
If NJ Smith threatens to "cave your head i'm
because you mentioned that his son Bob was sent
to the tombs for pelting street lamp with brick
bats-dont worry, but tell him that you love the
law, that you dine on salad made of red tape and
sealing wax.
Again we say, never worry. Ifyou do, you are
no more calculated for an editor than Quaker is
for marine hornppes.

W The Greensborough Patriot-Mr. Gilmer's
home organ-endeavors make capital out of the
assault on Sumner, by declaring that he is one of
the most bitter opponents of the American party"
II it be true that Mr.. Sumner is opposed to the K
N. party, how did it happen that Gov. Gardner the
leading X. n. of Massachusetts,, and frequently
praised for his "nationality" by the Patriot and
others of the brethren South presided over the late
Boston meeting, called to sympathize with SumnerG
The Patriot knows that the Know Nothings and
black Republicans of Massachusetts are one and the
same And this is true as to nearly all the free
States. But few months ago the K. Ms and black
Republicans of Pennsylvania publicly united, and
published address to that effect against the Dem
ocrats and only day or two since the Know Moth
ings of Vermont adopted resolutions denouncng
President Pierce and proposing to unite with the
black Republicans in the Congressional and Presi-
Dental elections
The positions of parties in their aggressions upon
the constitutional rights of the South and in their
acquiescence in the same, are follows: First, we
have such as Beecher, Garrison, and Fred Douglas
in the lead, preparing the way for Grecy, Sumner,
Seward, Ford Gardner, and the like, mixture of
X. Ms and black Republicans; secondly, the black
Republicans referred to- thirdly, the great body of
the K. Ms of the free States protesting against any
more slave States, denouncing the repeal of the Mis-
souri, line and demanding its restoration fourthly
few of the X. Ms of the flee States and the great
body of them South, denouncing the repeal of the
Missouri line as RECKLESS and unwise" act. If
the Editor of the Patriot will look in that glass he
will his own face, and what Sort of company he
is in But we forbear

ENCOUNTER WITH WoLF.-Some two or three
weeks since very large male wolf, driven by hum
ger from the forests, made his appearance in the
gion of country in this county known as the Cross
ings Forks. He commenced his deprcdations upon
stock and began to be great annoyance the hus-
bandlnen of that locality. At last a young man
named Christian Beachy, who had frequently
his tracks in the snow, declared his intention to give
him chase If he ever came across him when he
Beachy) was on his favorite horse. few days since
Beachy, in Company with another young man, also
mounted, bcheld the VOLTS track in the snow. 1t
was apparently just made, and dash after him
at once deternind upon. The snow was two feet
deep, but nothing dauntcd Beachy, on his powerful
horse, plunged through it into the forest, followed
by his companion, who was unable to keep up. The
WOLF finding himself pursued, dashed forwards but
the gallant steed of Beachy, after chase Of half
hour, bore him by the side of the wolf Sprnging
from his horse he (being unarmed) caught the ami
NAL by the tail. Then a battle ensued of fierce
character. The wolf snapped his powerful jaws in
rage but by continually jerking him about and ad-
ministering at every opportunity powerful kick
with a heavy boot in the side, he managed to hold
on snniurcd until the arrival Of his companion, when
the ferocous animal was dispatched with well-aimed
blow from club Beachy is a man of great mus
cular power and courage, which enabled him to
tain his hold upon the wolf until he dispatched
When his companion arrived he was nearly exhaus.
ted. The wolf would not have been so easily cap
tured but, being indiscreet in his younger days he
had put one of his feet in steel trap and thereby
lost the entire foot to the first joint.
