POLITICAL NEWS.—A battle ensued on the
4th of November, on the banks of the Danube, be
tween 12,000 Turks and 9,000 Russians. A brisk
cannonade commenced, after which a combat with
bayonets ensued, and lastedthreehours. The Russians
lost several officers, oae hundred and forty privates
and had five hundred wounded. The Turkish loss
is unknown. The Turks afterwards crossed, unob
served, to Wallachia. It is rumored that the Turks
had taken Giurgero by storm. The Russian troops
in the Principalities were suffering terribly by ty
phus fever.
It is reported that Russia has formed an alliance
with Dost Mahomed and Persia against the British
in India, if
,that power persists in . aiding Turkey.
A general war throughout Europe seems immi
nent, although negotiations are progressing. The
Turks have fortified Oltenitza, a town on the left
bank of the Danube. A battle has occurred near
Oltenitza, lasting twenty-eight hours, causing im
mense slaughter on both sides. The Russians have
seized all the public funds and treasures at Buch
arest; four thousand Turks now occupy Kalrache,
and twelve thousand have possession of Lesser
lachia.
The latter forms the extreme left of the Turkish
line. The Russiaris have made no attempts to cross
the Danube.
The Consuls of France and England at 13ucbar
est are daily expecting instructions to le . ave the
country. •
It is reported:that Abdi Pacha has been removed
from the command of the Turkish army.
The number of Russian troops in the principali
ties is now reduced to 85,000, and the hostilities in
Asia have been renewed.
The London Times says that in the new adjust
ment of the Eastern question Russia relinquishes her
position, providing she can retire judiciously.
FRANCE—The position of the government on
the Eastern question is uncertain, but it is now
stated that it will interfere in-behair of Turkey.
The funds have advanced one per cent.
ITALY.—Great suffering is experienced here in
consequence of the great scarcity of fobd.
THE VERY LATEST—By t .:lewraph we have
a rumor to the effect that the Rjf'siaris have re
tired, and fallen back upon Bucharest, arid that Aus
tria has consented to remain neutral, provided the
Turks will not employ refugees in ,their army. It
is generally thought that the Turks have been vic
torious in both battles.

The Globe.—The official paper of Congr es
and newspaper for the people.—lt will be seen
by the annexed extract from a letter of General
Washington to David Stewart, dated at New York
17th March,,l79o, that the idea of such a paper as
I propose to make the Globe, originated in the
mind of the father of his country. He said :
"It is to be lamented that the editors of the dif-
ferent Gazettes in the Union donut more generally
and more correctly (instead of stuffing their papers
with scurrility and nonsensical declamation whisk
few would read if they were apprised of their con
tents) publish the debates in Congress on all great
national questions. The principles upon which
the difference of opinion arises, as well as the de
cisions,
would then come fully before the public,
and afford the best data for its judgment' , Sparks ,
Writings of Washington, vol. 10, p. 84.
In surrendering my interest in the organ of a
great political party, I cherished the purpose of
continuing the Congressional Globe and, if possi
ble in time, to derfect it into a fulehistory of the
action of Congress, giving the debates accuratel
and fully with the proceedings—all stamped wi
the variety of an official record. From the passa
of the letter of General Washington, which I hay
quoted, it will be perceived that ho thought thi
office might be combined with that of a regular
newspaper; and it is certain that the avidity of the
public for news of the less important kind greatly
contributes to give wings to the weightier matter
which may be called Congressional news.
Having succeeded in my purpose of perfecting
the reports of the debates in Congress and giving
them the official stamp, I now propose to send
them abroad, in connection with the news of the
day, in such haste as shall outstrip full and accu
rate intelligence sent front the seat of government
in any other form whatever. It will even antici
pate the scraps of news forwarded to cities within
two hundred and filly miles of Washington by tel
egraph. Before the events thus transmitted are
published in the morning papers, (for instance, of
the city of New York,)the Globe containing them
will have reached the post office of that city by the
Express Mail of the previous night. The process
by which tiGs will effected I now lay before the
public. •
I will have a corps of sixteen Reporters in Con
gress; each in succession will take notes during
five minutes, and then retire, prepare them for the
Press, put them slip by slip in the hands of com
positors, and thus while a debate is going on in
Congress, it will be put in type, and in a few min
utes after it is ended it will be in print. I shall by
this means be enabled to send by the Express mail
of 5 o'clock p. m. for the East, West and Nortk
-and by that of 9 o'clock p. m. for the South,all the
proceedings of Congress up to the ordinary hour of
adjournment. Thus the accurate debates of Con
gress will reach the city, two hundred and fifty
miles from the capital, before their doily morning
papers are in circulation.
The miscellennos news I shall be careful to
gather from remote sections of the country by tel
egraph. I will obtain from the Executive Depart
ments, through official sources; the matters of mo
ment transacted in them, and, through agents em
ployed for that purpose, all the city news of coo
sequance in sufficient time to be put into the Globe
and mailed in the express mail trains. In this way
I hope to create a new era in the dissemination of
news from Washington before the public mind at a
distance had received its first impressions from ir
responsible telegraphic despatches; or by letter wri,
tees biased by peculir views.
Washington has now become so great a centre of
political interest during all the year—the proceed
ings of the Executive Departments, and the% infor
mation collected by them, even during the 'recess
of Congress, is of so much importance to the inter
est of every section of the country--that I shall
continue the publication of the daily papes.perma
nently, with a view to become the vehicle of the
earliest and most correct intelligence.
It is part of my plan to reduce the price of the
daily paper to halt that of similar daily papers; and
thus I hope to extend its circulation so as to invite
advertisements. I will publish advertisements of
the government. To subscribers in the cities I
hope to submit such terms as will induce them to
advertise their business in every village through
out the Union, where the Globe is sent daily under
the franks of members of Congress, all of whom
take it and some of them a large number ofcopies.
The installation of a new administration and a
new Congress portends much change i■ the course
of public affairs as the result of the next session.--
Many vast interests which were brought up in the
last Congress were laid over by the democratic
majority to await the action of a democratic exec
utive . The new modelling of the tariff; the new
land system; the question of giving- homesteads
and making every man a freeholder who may
choose to become one; the approximation of the
Atlantic and Pacific oceans by a national railroad
across the terrritory of the Union; reform in the
Army, Navy, and civil offices— all thes6 great
questions, with a thousand minor ones, deeply of
multitudes of men and every State in the
Union, will, now being matured by public opinion
come up for the government's decision., These
new issues, co-operating with old ones, coming up
to be disposed of by new actors on the scenes at
Washington ) will be apt to modify greatly if not
alter essentially, the party organizations of the
country.
To these elements of interest another is likely
to be introduced by the interposition of the agita- --
tient+ of Europe. After nearly forty years of peace
in Europe, there is an evident restlessness that
now seems fraught with tendencies threatening
war; and if war comes, in all likelihood there will
follow such universal hange that the United Suites
can scarcely hope to escape its vortex. Indeed,
from late events it is apparent that our Govern
ment is already drawn into European difficulties.
These circumstances are calculated to draw the
public mind towards the neat Congress with much
expectation
The Daily Globe will be printed on, fine paper,
double royal size,
with small type, (brevier and
nonpareil,) at fivedollars a year.
The Congressional Globe will also be printed on
a double skeet, in book form, royal quarto size,
each number containing sixteen pages. The Con
gressional Globe paper will be made up of the
proceedings of Congress and the running debates
as given by the reporters. The speeches which
members may choose to write out themselves will,
together with the message of the President of the
United States, the reports of the Executive Depart
ments, and the laws passed by Congress, be added
in an appendix. Formerly I received eubscriptions
for the Congressional Globe and Appendix sepa
rately. But this has not been found satisfactory,
inasmuch as it gave an incomplete view of the
transactions in Congress; and therefore I have con
cluded not to sell them apart, considering that
neighbors can have the advantage of both by club
bing in case individuals shall find it too onerous to

To facilitate the circulation of the Congressional
Globe, and cheapen it to subscribers, Congress pas
sed last year a joint resolution making it free of
postage. I annex it, as the law may not be acces
sible to postmasters generally t. . .
Joint resolution providing for the' distribution of the
Law, of Congress and the debates thereon.
With a view to the cheap circulation of the laws
of Congress and the debates contributing to the
true interpretation thereof, and to make free the
communication between the representative and the
constituent bodies,
"Be it resolved by' the Senate and House o
Representatives of the United States of America
in Congress assembled, That from and after the
present session of Congress, the Congressional
Globe and Appendix, which contains the laws and
the debates thereon, shall pass free through the
mails so long as the same shall be published by or
der of Congress: Provided, that nothing herein
shall be construed to authorize the circulation of
the Daily Globe free of postage. •
Approved, August 6, 1852.
JO' I sell the Daily Globe at half the price of
similar publications, so the 'Congressional Globe
and Appendix is sold for half the cost of so much
composition, press-work and paper. This I can
afford to do, inasmuch as the subscription of Con
gress almost covers the cost of composition, and
this enables me to sell for little more than the cost
of press-work and paper. It requires the sale of
about 9,000 copies to reimburse expenses. If 500
only were sold, the cost of each copy would be
about $104! The debates in tho English Parlia
ment cost about eleven times as much as I charge
subscribers for the debates in Congress, equal in
quantity, and as well reported and printed.
The next session of Congress will be a long.one;
and it is believed the Congressional Globe, for it,
will reach 4000 royal quart, pages, as the last long
session made 3842; and the long one before that,
made 3901 royal quarto pages—four large volumes
each session. If subscribers will be careful to file
all the numbers received by them, I will supply
any that may miscarry in the mails. This work
increases in value as it grows old. The first say
enteen volunies will now command three times,
and some of the eubsquent ones twice, their ori
ginal subscription price.
The subscription price for the. Congressional
Globe (including the Appendix and the Biwa) is
six dollars.
Complete indexes will be made out and forward
ed to sabseribers soon after the session is ended.
Subscribc,rs for the daily should have their mon
ey here by the 6th, and for the Congressional
Globe by the 16th of December. The money must
tfecotnpany an order for either the Daily or the
Congressional Globe. Banks notes currentowhere
a subscriber resides will be received at par.

From two eminent Pyhyeiciags in

Sir:—We have given your Cherry Pectoral an
extensive trial in our practice, and find it to surpass
every other remedy we have for curing affections

DRS. DIEMER & HAMPTON.
To singers and public speakers this remedy is
invaluable, as by its action on the throat and lung.,
when taken in small ,quantities, it removes al
hoarseness in a few hours, and wonderlully !a
creages the power and flexibility of the voice.
Asthma is generally much relieved, and' often
wholly cured by Cherry Pectoral. But there are
some cases so obstinate as to yield entirely to no
medicine. Cherry Pectoral will cure them, if they
can be cured.
Bronchitis, or irritation of the throe( and upper
portion of the lungs, my bo cured by taking Cherry
Pectoral in email and frequent doses. The unoom
fortable oppression is soon - relieved.
Rev. Dr. LANSING, of BEOORLYN, Nuw Yost,
states :—" I have seen the ,Cherry Pectoral cure
such cases of Asthma and Brnochitis as leads me
to believed it can rarely tail to cure those diseases."
For Croup. Give an emetic of antimony, to be
followed by large and frequent doses of the Cherry
Pectoral, until it subdues the dismal* If taken in
season, it will not fail to cure.
Whooping cough may be broken op and soon
cured by the use of Cherry Pectoral.
The influenza is speedily removed by this rem

whole families were protected from any serious
consequences, while their neighbors, without the
Cherry Pectoral, were suffering from the disease.
SALEM, Ohio, June I Ith, 1651.
Dr. J. C. Ayer :—I write to inform you of the
truly remarkable effects of your Cherry Pectoral in
this place, and in my own fbmily. One of my
daughters was completely cured in three days of a
dreadful Whooping Cough, by taking it. Dr.
Means, one of our very best physicians freely states
that he considers it the best remedy we have for
pulmonary diseases, and that he has cured more
cases of Croup with it than any other mediciae he
ever administered.
Our clergyman of the Baptist Church says that' s
during the run of Influenza here this seasons, he
has seen cures from your medicine he could
scarcely have believed without seeing.
Yours respectfully, J. D. SINCLAIR,
Deputy Postmaster,
From the distinguished Professor of Chemistry
and Materia Medina, Bowdoin College. have
found the Cherry Pectoral, as its ingredients allow,
a powerful remedy for colds, and coughs, and pul
monary diseases.
'PARKER CLEVELAND, M. D.
Bnurrswicir, Me., Feb. 6, 1847.
DI. VALENTINE Morn, the widely celebrated
Professor of Surgery in the Medical College, New
York City, says :—" It gives me pleasure to cer
tify the value and efficacy of Ayre's Cherry Pec
toral,' which I consider peculiarly adapted to cure
diseases of the Throat and Lungs."
Cures of severe diseases upon the Lungs have
been effected by Cherry Pectoral in such extreme
case as warrant the belief that a remedy has at
length been found that can be depended on to cure
the Coughs, Colds and Consumptions which carry
from our midst thousands every year. It is indeed
a medicine to which the afflicted can look with
confidence for relief, and they should not fail to
avail themselves of it.

ril h e Perfect Grain Drill and
most. Valuable Agricultural Implement.—
A great improvement in Grain Drills, making this
excellent Agricultural Implement a perfect Ma
chine, for which letters patent were issued Sep
tember 20th, to Mr. Samuel Jenkins, of York co:
The improvement consists in attaching an ad
justable curved cutter of steel, to and through the
drag her and through the point of the tooth or
drill, in front of the tooth, forming a triple edge
at the point, and enabling tho toothto also up and
glide over any . obstructions, and completely regu
lating the depth of furrow required, and depositing
the grain to the depth, according to the character
of the soil. The Cutter likewise prevents weeds
or stubble from clogging or choking up the mouth
of the Drill. Heretofore insuperable disadvantages
have attended the use of the Grain Drill, on any
other than a level and even soil; but by this sim
ple invention the operation of the Machine is made
complete and perfect, and this valuable Agricultu
ral Implement can now be used on uneven, stony
or rocky ground, or on new clearing, where the
stumps have dot yet been removed, with the same
easy draught and perfect operation, in Seeding and
Drilling, as on even and clear soil, without jarring
the Machine in the least„or putting the seeding
devices out of gear.
The model and specifications are now at the In
ventor's Institute, Fulton Hall, where J. Franklin
Reigart wiil be pleased to give every information
to persons interested in the matter, desiring to ex
amine the same more particularly, or to purchase
County or State rights.
Competent persons desirous of securing the
Agency to sell the County and State rights of this
most useful Machine, should apply immediately.
