ELLswoRTH's AvENGER IN BosToN.-
Lieut.. VIM. L. Brownell, U. S. A, arrived in
the city Saturday morning. 1t is needless to
mention the fact that, as Corporal Brownell
of the New York Zouaves he avenged the
death of the gallant Col Ellsworth by shoot
ing his dastardly assassin.
Lieut.. Brownell's desire was to remain un.
noticed during his brief sojourn in Boston, but
his arrival was whispered about, and promi.
nent citizens began TO call upon him in num-
bers that he determined to transact the bust
ness that mad brought him here as speedily as
possible and return to New York. He left for
that city this evening.
Had Lieut. Brownell remained over Sunday
the Revere House would scarcely have proved
large enough to contain the thousands who
would have thronged thither to shake him by
! the Enthusiastically Euening Gazette.

To AND FROM New York BY WAY OF
Norwich Last Friday night, the new steam
err City of Boston, one of the magnificent new
boats recently built to run between Allyn's
Point and New York, was put on the route
for the first time. She left New York with
great crowd of passengers, and came up the
: Sound in such style as must have cnlivened
wifHexeiteneHt every other craft she passed.
A band OF music that performed splendidly,
together with rockets and other displays of
fireworks, made her very noticeable object
to all within sight or hearing.
And the company had right to be jubilant
on starting this admirable boat, which will
add greatly to the attractions of the route they
have in charge, for while this floating City of
Boston is SO pleasant to see, and SO skilfully
arranged for the comfort Of passengers, she is
one of the staunchest, strongest, and safest
boats ever put on the Sound. 1t is not COM
mon TO see a Sound steamboat so strongly
built, and we commend this circumstance to
the attention Of those who have occasion to
visit New York. The other boat for this
route, which will be ready in about two weeks,
will be called the "City of New York"
Another change is about to be made on this
route, which will generally be deemed great
Improvement. The company have leased the
Norwich and New London railroad for ter
years, end as soon as their new wharf at New
London can be completed, the cars will g
down the west side of the river TO that city
instead of going 10 Allyn's Point. The steam
boats will receive and land their passengers a
New London, and passengers from New Yorl
will be reused to take the cars at given hour
say at half past two o'clock, every morning
so that they may know beforehand what time
they have for sleep. We understand thai
everything possible will be done to make thit
route attractive to travellers, and we wish il
all possible success

There seem to have been startling rumors
preyalent in Washington, last night, in regard
to reported battle between Gen. Patterson
and Gen. johnson, near Martinsburg. Wash
ington is often fruitful in such rumors, but, in
this as in the case of the Ohio troops at Wen
ma, they are SO extravagant we presume, that
the government does not allow them to go
abroad by telegraph.
