    One Week Later from Europe..
Ns* , Yolk, April 23.--The steamer Nash
ville. chartered by the Collins company in place I
of the steamer Pacific, arrived here at noon to, ,
day.
The week's news mai , - be briefly summed 'up
thus: Political affairs are just where they
were at The period of the closing of previous
accounts, except that the feeling hecotnes strang
er that nothing is left but to fight out the diffi- ;
culty. The adjournment of the Coaference un- '
til the 9th was to await th - e — ltissian ultimat
um and the arrival of the F: each and Turkish
Ministers of Foreign Affair :4 at Vienna.
A careful reading of the accounts exhibits
little hope
. of an early peace. The Euiperor
Alexander is evidently preparing for a desper
ate struggle—one hundred and forty thousand
men have been marched to the reighborhood of
the Baltic. Two fortified camps of sixty thous- 1
and lre established between Riga, Narra and
_Revel. The approach to all the northern sea
port towns are being blocked up with sunken
vessels. Heavy batteries are erecting at Dan
amunde. The Grand Duke Constantine has
gone to Cronstadt to inspect the coast of the
Gulf of Finland.
_Russian reinforcements to
the number of fifeen- thousand arrived at Se
bastopol on the 18rti.
_ Previous to the adjournment of the Vienna
conference the Russian Plenipotentiaries re
fused to admit '.that in accepting the third
-point they have to acknowledge the principle
of. a diminution of the Russian power in the
Black Sea ; asserting at the same time that the
-demand'for the reduction of the Russian fleet
contrary to the dignity and sovereign rights
of the . Emperor."- Nesselrode-will attend the
conference during the discussion of the third
point.
It -is rumored that the allies will, for the
purpose of meeting, this difficulty, propose to
exclude all ships of war from the Black Sea.
Austria differs with the allies regarding the
Black Sea question. It is reported :that she
-will remain neutral should the allies demand
the destruction of Sebastopol, and she declares
that she entered upon the present arrange
ments with the allies fur the purpose of check—
ing, not crippling Russia.
It is almost certain that Russia will refuse
the third point.
The Russians in the.Critnea still occupy the
ambuscade which the French attacked unsuc
cessfully. On the 18th the allies expected to
commene6 operations.
Omar Pasha on the 3d had 24.000 men re
connoitering the position of the Russians on the
Alma.
Al: the allied ships of war at Constantinople
are ordered to Sebastopol.
The Austrian army of observation is draw
ing closer to the Pruth and the Danube.
One Week Later from Europe.
HALIFAX, ' April 25.—The Royal Mail steam•
ship Africa arrived at this port last night.
She sailed from Liverpnol - April 14th, so that
her intelligence is one week later than was re
ceived by the Nashville.
The news by the Africa is interesting, though
not of striking importance.
The latest dates from Sebastopol are to the
Bth of April. Skirmishing was constantly
going. on, hut the Condition of affairs had un
dergone no change.
• The allies report themselves as ready and
fully Prepared to open the general bombard-
Anent of the city.
The Russians have constructed two ,new
• batteries, and converted their ambuscades into
advanced parallels, in despite*of,all the com
bined efforts of the allies to prevent their pro
gress. Every day seemed to add to the ener
gy, perseverance and skill with which they
conducted the defence of the place. -
The position of Omar Pasha and the Rus
sians at F,epatoria was unchanged, except that
.the former had enlarged his line of defence to
receive his reinforcements. This proves the
report about the• death of Omar Pasha, &c., to
Lave been unfounded.)
Canrobert's dispatch estimates the loss on
the night of the 22d. during the great Russian
sortie, to have been as follows : Russians, 700
killed and 1,500 wounded : French, 200 killed
and 400 wounded. The English loss is not
given..
The ninth session of the Peace Conference
was held at Vienna on the Bth inst.;and lasted
but one hour. The Russian Plenipotentiaries
had not received their instructions. front the
new Czar; and were therefore unprepared for
discussion.
Everything seemed at a stand still, and the
prospects of peace were deemed very slight.
The question relative to an indemnity for
the war is to he deferred. and.not allowed to
interfere with the prospects of peace.
The British Government advertises a new
loan, the amount of which was not known, but
it was supposed to be fifteen million pounds
sterling.—Almost immediately after its an
nounce►nent the funds fell.to 91 a 913..
The Russians deny that Menschikoff is dead,
but admit that he is mounded.
ANOTITER DARING ROBBERY BY CIII.OROFORIC
—On the night of the 3d instant the house of
Mr. Jacob Fees. of Davis county, lowa, was
robbed of 8800, in the following manner : The
window was raised, and small rolls of paper
saturated with chloroform or opium thrown in
to the room, by which the house Was filled
with smoke, and a deep sleep came over all
the inmates. The money was between the
straw and feather"beds in which Mr. Fees and
his wife were sleeping. Linen cloths. wet with
chloroform, were pla,ced over the faces of the
old lady and gentleman, and thus they were
kept unconscious while the money was taken
from under them. There _were five„persons in
the house, and all slept till an unusually late
hour in the morning.
flt appears to us, that the framers of all
the anti-liquor laws yet projected, have omit
ted one important provision, and that is. the
punishment of the liquor drinkers as well as
the sellers. If it is a crime and sin—as mod
1/4ern reformers would force the world to believe
I—to sell liquor, on Sunday or any other day,
► ls equally. if not more, a crime. to drink it.
"gdeed. reasoning by analogy, the latter act
alone should be considered criminal. Our
laws do not punish him who sells a pistol, a
dagger, or a dose of poison, but only the as
sassin who uses tho'e weapons, and the artful
murderer who administers the deadlypotion.

Steambotit Explosion—Ten Men Killed
and Six Otheis Wounded.
Dmitoir. April 20.--The 'propeller - Ore on,
of Cleveland.-exploded her holler this . rnorning,
fourwhen about miles above this place. " Ten
inert were killed, among whnta. were W. J..
Chapman, the first engineer of the boat: Thos.
Donnelly, the second engineer: Eftw..Mcßride
and Wm. Reid. The names of the others are
unknown.
Capt. Stewart bad one of his legs broken
and five. or six ahem were more or less wound
ed.
The propeller was completely shattered. and
sunk shortly after the disaster. The loss,
however, does not exceed $B,OOO, fur which
there is no insurance.
The explosion was caused by a defect in the
boiler.
Nsw MATHILIAI. 'FOIL BUILDING.—We were
shown ye:Aerday a -Specinien brick." made
=lime-a-tirtsand_which_appearsrtsthough it
would take the place of the common 'clay brick
altogether. • It is very smooth and hard. It
is larger than the common brick; and a vacant
space in the center. We are informed that the
'materials used in the_ manufacture_ of_ these
bricks are simply lime and sand, the proportion
being about eleven parts sand to one part lime, -
andthey can be manufactured at less cost than
our common clay brick. The bricks can, of
course. be made of any form or shape, accord
in to taste. It - is fully equal to , sand stone.
The advantages are the facility
_with which
they are manufactured : lathing and plastering
becomes unnecessary, and the outside_.an_d the
inside of the wall is made at the same tithe.
The chemical change which takes place in the
manufacture of bricks hardens them so that
they are not more affected by the action of the
atmosphere than stone. It is not affected by
frost, and experiments which have been tried
to test its strength and other qualities have re
sulted satisfactorily. Scientific men have ex
amined the material and have arrived at the
saute conclusion.—Cincinnati Gazelle.
?The perfume of Flowers, may be gather
ed, according to the Scientifie-.9nsetican. in a
very simple manner, and without apparatus.
Gather the flowers with as little stalk as possi
ble, and place them in a jar three parts full, of
olive or almond oil. After being in the oil
twenty-four hours, put them into a coarse
cloth, and squeeze the . oil from them. This
process, with fresh flowers. is to be repeated
according to the strength of the perfume desir
ed. The oil being thus thoroughly perfumed
with the volatile principle of the flowers, is to
be mixed with an equal quantity of pure recti
fied spirits, and shaken every day, for a fort
night, when it may -be poured otf, ready for
use. As the season for sweet scented blossoms
is just approaching, this method may be prac
tically tested, and without any great •trouble
01-expenEe. It would add additional interest
to the cultivation of flowers.
A NEW SEctIET ORDER.-A young man was
arraigned on yesterday before the officials of
Hamilton, charged with being a member of the
Boiled Egg Club, a society whose main object
was said to be ',the 'deprival of holiest neigh
bors' roosts of their hens and eggs, the former
to be sold, and the latter to be boiled fur daily
sustenance ;" but, after a lengthy examination,
he was discharged with the promise exacted
that he would be a good boy in the future.—

' GREAT DISCOVERY IN ELECTRIC TELEGRAPIIS,
—Among the most startling wonders in connec
tion with electricity, is the announcement that
M. Bonelli, of Turin, - Sardinia, has invented a
new electric telegraph, by which trains in 'no
tion on a railway are enabled to communicate
with each other at all rates of velocity, and at
I the ssme time with the telegraphic stations on
1 the line, whilst the latter are at the same time
r able to communicate with the trains. It is
added, that .Mr. Bonelli is in possession of a
I system of telegraphic communication in which
tI wires are entirely dispensed with.
BaTs tti HoasEs.—A friend who has had
much experience in the treatment of this dis
ease. assures us that the best preventive is
to feed the animal occasionally with heads of
Rye. The char and heads of this grain accord=
ing to his theory, cut out and effectually re
move the grub from its lodgment. Ile is con
fident that if horses he fed every five day in
this manner, they will never be attacked with
bots.—W esl Chester Rep;
lIIPROVEMENTS AT ST. LOClS.—Twelve bun
hred and fifty-four brick buildings were erect
ed in St. Louis during the past year. Some of
them cost 'rom $307000 to $lOO.OOO. The
total cost is estimated at 83,811,000.
"CART AND No ORDERS."—About one.hnn
dred and fifty men paraded the streets of flutfa.-
lo on the 19th instant, on a strike, not for 'an
advance of wages. hut, as their banners indi
eated,,“cash for their work and no orders."
CRUSHED TO DEATn.—On Monday last a
young man named George Laur fell on. the
water wheel of a saw-mill at Scalp Level, Cam
bria county, Pa.. and was literally crushed to
a jefley by the 'revolution of the wheel.
liThis is a great country of ours—sleigh
