PITTSBURGH:
SATURDAY MOBNHH3::n:

Rev. Antoineete Brown says she Is not mar

bearing her name who has done the press so
Upwards of eight hundred and fifty thousand
dollars, in paper, of the Indiana Free Banks,
has been returned to the Auditor of that Btate,
for cancellation, within the last two months.
The Atlantic and Ohio Telegraph Company
have deolared a dividend of fifty oents per share,
payable on demand, at the offioe of the Company
in Philadelphia.
The peoplo of Buoks county, Pennsylvania,
have been holding a public meeting abont the
expulsion of Capt. Downing, of the Navy, and
aro going to apply to the President to have him
restored.
On Wednesday morning a serious scoident oo
oured on the Galena and Chioago Union Rail
road, caused by a wood traiu ooming in collision
with a “flyin” freight train. The aooident oc
cured near Clinton station —one man was killed
and three or four others seriously injured-—all
employees of the oompany.
The Convention of Ohio and Indiana Railroads,
which met at Columbus on the 21et of Septem
ber last, held an adjourned meeting in Dayton
on Wednesday last. Delegates from twenty
three Ohio and Indiana roads were in attend
ance. Resolutions proposing the abolition of
free passes; the dispensing of agents or run
non ; and a rise in freight-charges equal to 20
per oent. were reported. All were adopted, ex
cept that in regard to freight.
ODD FAMILIES.
Most people like to be able to trace their line
age back for several generations:—for a oentury
at least. In this oonntry, if a man can show
that ho is a descendant of some one who took
part, on the right tide, in the war of the revolu
tion, he need go no further to establish a claim
to consideration and respect; and in most in
stances probably it is neither safe or useful to
try to go back farther. “ Old families in this
country are a very different thing from “ old
families ” in Europe and Asia.
The Bourbons of France, for instance, olaim
direct descent from Phillip of Maoedon, the
father of Alexander the Great. Some facts of
history throw a strong doubt on the claim; but
it may be so.
Tho Bagration family of Russia claim direct
descent from Kings David and Solomon. As
both those gentlemen bad a good many children,
there is some ohanoe that the olaim may be well
founded, though hardly susceptible of legal
proof. At any rate, the Bagration family have
for several centuries book shown little of the
wisdom of Solomon. The chief of the family of
Bagration ascended the throne of Georgia more
than thirteen hundred years ago; more than five
centuries .before the Norman conquest of Eog-
laad. It continued to bo tho royal and reigning
family of Georgia until the year 1800, when
Georgia became a part of the Russian Empire ;
and the family of Bagration were carried to
Russia, where itsohief retains the title of Prince;
and they are treated with great respect. The
Marshal Prince Bagration greatly distinguished
himself in the Bonaparte wars ; was at one time
commander of the Russian army, and foil at
Borodino.
There is an old family; and it is rich, rigor
ous and numerous yet. Tho family of Colon*,
ia Romo, claim to be lineal a dis
tinguished Roman Senator who flourished before
the days of the Csesars.
The Hapsburg family, the chief of whom is
now Emperor of Austria, claim direct descent
from the. Roman Caesars. We presume it would
be difficult to prove each a pedigree in an action
of ejectment The Guelphs, to whom Queen
Viotoria belongs, is a very old family, and cen.
tones ago were a troublesome and warlike race
in the north of Italy.
The family of Romanoff, of whom Nioholas,
Emporor of Rassia is the representative, ia very
ancient. They were the rulers of Muscovy un
der different titles oenturies ago: and few fami
lies have for so long a succession of ages dis
played so muoh rigor and ability. To that race
Rassia is largely indebted for its present power,
wealth and civilisation.
Some of tbe nobility of Eogland trace their
lineage baok to tbe 14 belted knights,” who came
over from Normandy with William the Conquer,
or. Whether it ie more creditable to them to
trace their descent from those robber chiefs than
from peasant stock, is a matter of taste about
which Democrats and " the quality ” would pro
bably differ.
There are many families in Pennsylvania who
eould trace their deoent from ancestors of high
name and rank in Europe. The descendants of
the Percys, the tarbulent barons of Northum
berland, now reside in onr State. Tbe blood of
Harry Hotspur, it is said, is io their reins.
Thero is a family residing “ not a hundred
miles ” from Pittsburgh, who are descended
from an anoientking of Bootland. Bat each titled
anoestry is of little use in this oountry of equali
ty ; and confers little honor on
citizens. The poet Barns has the
general sentiment of the Amerioan people when
he says of titles and rank, in comparison with
noble and manly qualities—
“ The rank is bnt tbe guinea's stamp,
Th* gold's tbe man for a' that."
Freight on the O. and P. Railroad.
We hear many and grerious oomplaints from
ohr merchants, in regard to the delay in freight
shipped from Cincinnati by this road. Without
pretending to determine whether the fault lies at
the door of the Ohio and Pennsylrania line, or
with Its connections, we hare been told enough
to oonvinoe us there is a screw loose somewhere.
It is not the exception, but the, general role, we
are told, for freight that should come through in
three or four days, to be from twelve to twenty
days in arriving; and in one instanoe, a mer
chant, after awaiting their arrival here for some
time, heard his goods were lying at Cleveland
awaiting an owner. Whose is the fault? Is it
In the carelessness of the Company's agents, or
has this corporation more business than it oan
perform ? If the former, the remedy can not be
too soon applied by the proper officers. If the
latter, it is the best argument for the early com
pletion of the Pittsburgh and Steubenville rail
road that can be adduced.
NEW YORK ELECTION,
There are no less than ten State tickets in the
field for the election of next month. Ten poli
tical parties ought to be able to take care of the
public interests of the Empire State. The Enow
Nothings have a candidate of their own for Gov
ernor, and have some thoughts of sweeping the
field—if they can. Whichever party wins, we
presume Whig papers will announce it as a de
feat of the Administration, and an anti-Nebraska
rebuke.
Myron H. Clark is on six of the tickets for
Governor. His chances would Beem to be tbe
best; but the Enow Nothings, it is supposed,
will poll over one hundred thousand votes. The
election takes place on the 7th of next month;
so the fate of the nation will soon be known.
For Kansas*
The party from the interior of this State, that
we stated some time ago, were awaiting a rise in
tbe river to start for the new territory, depart
e 1 yesterday. As then is little prospeot of high
water for some time, they determined to go
by railway. The party is under the direction of
C. Albright, Esq., of Cambria eounty.

Kansas.— A letter writer from Kansas lately
wrote that up to that time Missourians formed
the msfority of the population of the nWT fcerri-
immigrants werear riving infereat
nomhew ftom thwnortb, Pennsylvania famish*
ing the, largest number of, any northern State;
and in a few mocthrthe northern settlers would
far out-number the southern. Binoe that letter.
J»e wriftehquite of large companies
have the northern States, and by
this time have probably arrived there. Bat
few settlers are as yet going there from southern
States except Missouri.
There is no doubt that by the next season
northern settlers in Kansas will out-number
southern i,wo to one. One writer predicts that
in less than two years Kansas will oontain a
population of 100,000. That territory possesses
every attraction for the hardy and enterprising
men of the moath. Its soil and climate are
good. The paolfio railroad will doubtless pass
through it nearly centrally, and thus open the
whole territory to settlement. Kansas is now
raaobed from the north by railroads and naviga
ble rivers. Horses and other stock and farni
tare o&n be carried there at moderate cost.
There is abundanoe of excellent land to be had
at government price. Farming land can be bad 9
there now for $1.25 per acre that will undoubt
ly be worth $2O per acre in seven or eight yearsi
Such attractions must drain off large numbers
of agriculturalists from the older States,; and
Pennsylvania is evidently furnishing a large
quota of the pioneers who will soon add a
new, free and great State to the'Union.

Free Lecture in Alleourrt City. —Oar
neighbors of Allegheny city will be happy to
learn that Dr. C. M. Fitoh is about to repeat his
interesting leotures in their eity. The course
will commence at Exceleor Hall, on Monday eve
ning next, subject: the causes of Pulmonary
Consumption. And we can assure our readers
that it the commencement, bo dry the lecture
will not be so at least, if wo may be allowed to
judge from the Doctor’s lecture iu our own oity
—for wo have rarely heard a greater’amount of
information on the general subject of health
more pleasantly presented than at Dr. Fitch's
lecturo last Monday evening. His occasional
illustrative anecdotes add much to the value of
the lecture, as they all carry amoral with them,
and the valuable collection of plates with which
the Doctor illustrates, his lectures add much also
to their interest. We will say no more, howover,
at present, as our neighbors will eo soon be able
to judge for themselves.

(Correspondence of the Public Ledger !
Kanawa Territory.—Character of the
Country—lts Timber, Water, Soil, Cli
mate, *o<
Poet Hudson, La., Sept 12, 1851.
Matrt. Edilort :—l will endeavor to give you
a short description of Eansas Territory. Han
sas City is about a mile below the mouth of the
Eansas river, on the Missouri river, and in the
State of Missouri. It is the point where most
of tbe emigrants land, who intend to make Kan
sas their home; or who go* there, as I did, to
look at the country. It is also the starting point
for the emigration to New Mexico ; and a large
amount of goods are annually shipped from this
point to Santa Fe. From this place to West
port the country is hilly and broken. West of
Westport, which is the frontier town of Missouri,
bat a short from the Kansas line, the
country is tolerably level, and well timbered and
watered, and continues so for some fifteen or twen
ty miles, after wbieh tbe timber beoomes very
scarce, and there is none at all exoept upon the
small streams running through the prairie, which
are not very frequent; sometimes you will not
see a tree or bush as far as the eye can reaob.
All the land for thirty miles up the Eansas and
ten miles baok, is reserved for the Shawnee In
dians. The land is a rich loam, and capable of
produoing as much to the acre as any land in
the same latitude in the world. Having no means !
of analyzing the soil, I cannot state precisely the
component parts, but it is largely oomposed of
lime and charcoal, two very neoessary ingredi
ents to make a rich and lasting soil. I have no
doubt that the soil would please the most fastidi
ous. The water is scarce, but few springs, and
most of the small streams are beoome dry in the
summer. Good well water can, however, be ob
tained, at from fifteen to thirty feet. The coun
try from the Missouri river to the Rocky Moun
tains, rises gradually all the way, a distance of
ten or eleven hundred miles, and in that high
region, there are very high and fieroe winds,
which sweep across the prairies with irresistible
foroe, as there is nothing to break or obstruct
their violence.
Tbe Northers whieh are so much dreaded in
the Gulf of Mexico and throughout Texas, ori
ginate in latitude from forty to fifty degrees
north, along the summit of the Rocky Mountains.
The climate, therefore, of Kansas, is very oold
in the winter and very changeable—and no per
sons that cannot stand the severest weather, have
any business in that oountry. I have been told
by some farmers that were born and raised near
Westport, that the snow generally remains upon
the ground for four or five months in the year,
and that the wind is so pieroing that they have
had horses, males and cattle froze to death. The
climate, therefore, I oonsider the most objection
able feature to the settlement of the oountry.
Fever and ague prevail to a great extent In the
summer.
The above is a hasty, but true description of
the country, whatever others may state to tbe
oontrary, obtained by personal knowledge, aad
the experience of some of the most respeotable.
men in Missouri. The crops in this region are
very poor, both oom and cotton. W. H. I

. " Field or Battli or Alma, Sept 21.
"Sins: The cannon of your Majesty has
spoken ; we have gained a complete victory. It
is a glorious day, Siro, to add to the military
annals of France, and your Majesty will have
one name more to add to tho victories which
adorn tho flags of the. French army.
"The Russians yesterday assembled all
tbeir forces, and collected all their means, in or
der to oppose the passage of the Alma. Prince
MenschikofF commanded in person. All the
heights were crowdod with redoubts and formi
dable batteries. The Russian army reckoned
forty thousand bayonets, from all points of tho
Crimea; in the morning there arrived from Theo
dosia six thousand cavalry, and 180 pieces of
heavy and field artillery. From the heights
which they occupied, the Russians could count
onr men, man by man, from the 10th to tho mo
ment wben we arrived on tbe Bnbbanacb. On
the 20th, from six o’clock in the morning, I car
ried into operation with the division of Gen.
Bosqnet, reinforced by eight Turkish battalions,
a movement which turned the left of tho Rus
sians and some of their batteries. Gen. Bosqnet
manoeuvred with as much intelligence as bravery.
This movement decided tbe bococrb of the day.
I had arranged that the English should extend
tbeir loft, in order at the same time to tfareateu
the right of the Russians, whilst I should occupy
them in the oentre, bnt their troops did not ar
rive in line until half-past ten. They bravely
made np for this delay. At half past twelve, the
line of the allied army, oooupying an extent of
more than a league, arrived on tbe Alma, and
was received with a terrible fire from the tirail
leurs.
"Id this movement tbe head of tbecolomnof
Gen. Bosquet appeared on the heights, and 1
gave tbe aigoal for a general attaok. Tbe Alma
was crossed at doable quick time. Prince Na
poleon, at the head of his division, took posses-:
sion of the large village of Alma under the fire
tbe Russian batteries. Tho Prinoe showed him
self worthy of the great name he bears. We
then arrived at the foot of tho heights, under
the fire of the Russian batteries. There, Sire,
commenced a real battle along all the line—a
battle with its episodes of brilliant feats of valor.
Your Majesty may bo proud of your soldiers;
they have not degenerated; they are the soldiers
of Ansterlits and of Jena. At half-past fonr,
the French army was everywhere victorious. All
the positions bad been carried at the point of
the bayonet to the cry of "Vive l’Empereur”
which responded throughout the day.
Never was such enthusiasm seen, even the
wounded rose from the ground to join in it. On
our left the English met with large masses of the
enemy, and with great difficulties, but everything
was surmounted. Tbe English attacked the
Russian positions in admirable order under the
fire of their cannon, carried them, and drove off
tfle Ruesians. Tho bravery of Lord Raglan ri
vals that of antiquity. In the midst of cannon
and musket shot ho displayed a calmness whioh
never left him. Tbe French lines formed on the
heights, and the artillery opened its fire. Then
it was no longer a retreat, bnt a rout, the Rus
sians threw away tbeir muskets and knapsacks
in order to ran the faster. If, sire, I bad bad
cavalry, 1 should have obtained immense results,
and MenschikofF would no longer have had an
army; but U was late, our troops were har
rosaed, and the ammunition of the artillery was
exhausted.
At 6 o’clock in the evening we encamped on
the very bivouac of the Russians. My tent is
on the very spot where that of Prince Meuschi
koff stood in tho morning, and who thought him
aelf so sure of beatiog us that he left his car
riage there. 1 havo taken possession of it, with
his pocket book and correspondence, and shall
take advantage of the valnablo information it
contains. Tbe Rossian army will probably be
able to rally two leagues from this, and I shall
find it to-morrow on the Katscba, but beaten and
demoralized, while tho allied army is full of ar
dor and enthusiasm. I have been compelled to
remain here iu order to send our wounded and
(hose of the Russians to Constantinople, and to
procure ammunition and provisions from (he
fleet.

[From the London Tltn<*» of the 11th.]
-OPEEATIONB OF THE ALLIES AT BEBAB-
Lonl Raglan's interesting despatch of the 28th
of September, from Balaklava, and a private
communication of the same date from an intel
ligent officer of the Guards, enable as to resume
the narrative of the operations precisely at the
point at whioh we left them yesterday. We
have already stated that on the 23d the allied
armies left the Alma and prooeeded aoross the
Katcba river; on the 24th they orossed the Bel
liek, where it had been intended to effeot the
landing of the materiel, with a view to an attack
on the north side of Sebastopol. It was found,
however, that the enemy bad plaoed a fortified
work so as to prsvent tbs vessels and transports
from approaobing this river, and, with extraor
dinary fertility of resource, strategioal judg
ment, and military daring, the plan of opera
tions was suddenly ohanged by Lord Raglan,
with the concurrence of Marshal St. Arnaud.
It was determined to advance at onoe by a
flank march round the east of Sebastopol, to
oroas the valley of the Tchcrnaya, and seize Bal.
aklava as the future basis of operations against
tho south side of the harbor of Sebaßtopol. No
thing could be finer than the spirit of the con
ception of this movement, unless it be the cour
age and enduranoe with which it was executed
by the troops. To effect this objoct, it was ne
oessary, after crossing the Belbek near the vil
lage of that name, and also the high road from
that place to Sebastopol, to strike off to the
southeast across the country, so as to reaoh the
Balaklava road at or near a plaoe called Khutor
Mackenzie, or Mackenzie's Farm. The distanoe
from one road to the other is aboul six miles os
the orow flies; bat the oountry is oovered with
a thiok forest or jungle, through which the
troops had to make their way by the oompass
as well as they could, though it was imprac
ticable to the artillery of the Light Division,
and in many places the men could scarcely see
one another through the dense brushwood.
Thus groping their way along, the First Di
vision took at first a too southerly direotion, and
arrived on the hill on whioh the Inkerm&n lights
are ereoted; from this point they turned due
east, and, after some hours of extraordinary ex
ertion and difficulty, they reached Mackenzie’s
Farm—a namo and locality singularly wcloome
to the Highland Brigade. As the Guards ap
proached the border of the forest, firing was
beard to the front, and, considering the state of
confusion into which the whole army had been
thrown by so difficult and irregular a march,
their position might have become extremely
critical, for, on clearing the forest, Lord Rag
lan’s staff, with some batteries of artillery, found
themselves on the flank and rear of a Russian
division, said to amount to fifteen thousand men,
on its march to Baksbiserai. No sooner, how
ever, had our guns opened upon the enemy, who
were wholly unprepared for such an attack, than
they fled with precipitation, some in one direction
and some in another, ioaving in the hands of
our army a few astonished prisoners and an im
mense quantity of carta, luggage, stores and
ammunition, which strewed the road for three
miles.
After this adventure, which struok fresh ter
ror into the ranks of the enemy, the army do
eeended by a steep defile into the plains through
whioh the river Tcbernaya flows, and bivouacked
that night upon its banks, after having been un
der arms fourteen hours, in a most difficult ooun
try, without roads, and almost without water.
Nevertheless, it was here that Lieut Maxae, of
Her Majesty’s ship Agamemnon, volunteered to
retrace his steps by night through the forest and
aAroes a oountry infested with Cossacks, to con
wfy to Sir B. Lyons the order to bring round the
Marshal A. D* Baist Arhaud.”

sjarformed, that Mr. M&xsc reached the
whr, A. M., and before noon the AgameMßiw*'
was pat off the port of Balakiava.
.•-In" th#io e fercea
pUee trjr an ea«y rftafbh Jaext morning; and, »l- -
though the old Genoese fort on the rook opened
fta fire .ana threw a shell among Lord Raglan’s
tiaff, tkwplabe eurrendered as toon as the heigh tB
▼ere oconpied. We may here add thatth4*poei
tion of Balakiava is considered, by the highest
military authorities in the army, to be so strong
that it can easily be reudcred impregnable as
long as it is hold by our troops, and that it af
fords us a perfectly Bocnre b&ao of operations,
under all ciroumstaoces whatever, with a fine
port, a healthy climate, and a fertile country.
To an army, landing as the allied forces landed,
on an unknown coast like that of the Crimea,
such a possession is of inestimable value.
We aro not able to form from theso despatches
a clear idea of the corresponding movement of
the French army, except that Lord Raglan states
their march to have been even longer and more
fatiguing than that of the British troops, and
they reaohed the Tohernaya a day later. There
is, however, some reason to infer, from a tele
grapbio despatch attributed to Gen. Canrobert,
that he intended tooocnpy one of the deep bays
between Cape Chersonese and Sebastopol, and to
land tho French siege train there. The fires of
the ancient light house of the Taoric Chersooe
sus, which the Russians had extinguished, have
already been ro-kindled by the alliod troops.
Such is the proximity of these positions to Sebas
topol that the place can be reponnoitered with
ease. Lord Raglan states that he had himself
a good view of it on tho 27th, when he moved
two divisions to its immediate neighborhood;
and the chief engineers of the English and French
armies were employed in a deliberate survey of
its defences. A place which can be thus easily
approached by an enemy’, and reconnoitered
from the adjacent heights without molestation,
may be* considered to be already invested, at
least on the south side of the harbor.
It is evident that this rapid and almost unfore
seen evolution of the allied forces, not only took
the Russian division which fell in with the «4Hfi
extremely by surprise, but must completely have*
opset the calculations of Prince Menschikoff, for
tho defence of the place. After mnch consideg
ration and discussion, it was thought probablfl
that Sebastopol would be attacked on the nortfl
chiefly because the laodiog could not be effected
to the sooth, and it was impracticable to move
the heavy baggage of the troops across euob
forests and ravines as these we Pave just de
scribed. In fact the maroh could not have been
made if Lord Raglan bad not taken the precau
tion of sending all the tents and heavy baggage
on board the ships, which brought them round
to Balakiava. Tho Russians were, of coarse,
confirmed in the opinion that the attack would
be mado on the north, when they found that the
armies bad landed beyond the Alma; conse
quently the whole strength of the garrison was
employed in throwing up works on that aide, and
as our troops passed the head of the Valley of
Inkerman they saw the vast extent of these pre
parations. - *
Suddenly, and before they have well recover
ed from the tremendons defeat on the Alma, or
ascertained what the allies are next about to
undertake, the enemy will learn that the com
bined armies have formed their whole line of
communication with the interior, routed a corps
(Forme* and taken a convoy in passing, crossed
the forest, the defile, and the Tohernaya, and
established themselves in the strongest position
of the Crimea and on the weakest side of the
•harbor of Bebastopol.
Buch a strategical defeat Is oven more humili
ation to Prince Menschikoff, and more discredi
table to his military taleuta, than the loss of the
battle of the Alma, for there, at least, his troops
resisted as long us they eonld, and only gave
way before superior strength and courage ; but
to have allowed the whole force of the enemy to
march round him without opposition; to have
abandoned without attempt at defence a country
so broken that every brook might have become
a fortress, and every bush on ambuscade—and,
lastly, to find himself shut up in his own trap,
with the enemy pressing round the heights—is
a calamity whioh has scarcely fallen to any com
mander sinco Maok was shut up at Ulm. Lord Rag
lan states on the 28th that be was most desirous to
undertake the attack on Sebastopol, without tho
loss of a day, and the third and foorth divisions
had already been sent to the front to give them
their turn In the next encounter. Four or five
days would probably suffice to move up the guoa
nod construct the batteries, and we entertain
strong hopes that a very short time will now
briDg us tidings of a prompt, decisive, and glo
rious result.
Asi&aitnatlon of Lopea’a Captor—Riot In
Htvaas,
A oorreapondant of N. 0. Picayune gives the
following account of the assassination of the
person who bunted down and captured Qcneral
Lopez, for the reward offered :
Since I last had tbo pleasure of writing toyou
nothing of importance bad occurred in our or
derly and quiet city, until night before last,
when it was disturbed in Its propriety by ooe of
the most cowardly assassinations, which occa
sionally occur amongst our benighted populace.
This was ono of more importance than usual, as
the unfortanate victim, dose A. Castaneda, was
the individual who captured General Lopez,
and against whom vengeance was sworn at the
time.
Soon after be received the reward [56,000,]
whioh the Government offered for the capture of
Lopei, he went to Spain, kissed the Queen’s
band and received the honored oross of distino-
(ion, for bis gallantry, and has bat lately re
turned. He bad been Tatcbed-constantly for
the fatal opportunity, and on tbo evening of tbe
12th, between the boors of 7 and 0, be was play
ing a game of billiards at a coffee-boose called
Mart© y Belona, outside oT tbe city, and as be
was in the act of striking tbe ball, with his back
towards a blind on the piazza, he was shot
through the blind, two balls entering the back of
his bead, which almost instantly kilted him, and
although there was a great number of people
present, the assassin made good his escape.
General Conoha bad had an interview with
him on that day, and, it is said, gave him an ap
pointment as oaptaln of a partido. Concha feels
this as an insult to him, and has offered a large
reward for the apprehension of the assassin.
Yesterday afternoon he was buried. At the
time of starting a mob collected, and showed a
determination to prevent, if possible, the inter
ment. A guard of soldiers was ordered out to
proteot the remains on tbe way to “ Campo San
to,” which was followed by an immense crowd,
yelling, throwing stones, &c., and it was with
great diffieolty that the grave was reaohed.
Several of the civic gnsrd were badly iojared
—a number of the rioters were arrested, and no
doobt will be severely dealt with. This Casta
neda was despised by every one; his character
was always bad, and once his life was saved by
Geoeral Lopes, when he was president of tbe
military commission, by his casting vote. Such
was his gratitude, that he-honted the poor man
out with dogs in his hour of distress, to get the
reward for hia preoious head.
Late and Important from Chinai
Advices from China say that the city of Can
ton was besieged by the insurgents, who were so
increasod iu number and violenoe that the town
was only protected by the strength of the city
walls, and the faot of the rebels being destitute
of artillery. They were, however, casting ean
non. Their number is stated at 30,000. The
Governor General had withdrawn all his troops
into the city, but made occasional sallies, and
also fired upon the besiegers with heavy oannon
from tne city walls. On the 3d of August, the
rebels made an ineffeotnal effort to take the place
by storm, but were repulsed. with maoh loss.
Orders had been given to clear away all the
bouses near *.he walls whioh oould give shelter
to the besieging party. Many barbarities were
committed consequently, in the vioinity of the
city, bat whether by the rebels or imperialists,
was not known. A steamer whioh had arrived
at Hong Kong, from Bhanghae, reports that af
ter leaving the latier port, a furious bombard
ing about the city walls was heard, and a terri
ble explosion, from which it was feared that the
place had been recaptured by tbe imperialists.
It was said that five mines had been sprung up
under various parts of the wall. The French
frigate Jean D'Aro, and tbe British ship Win
chester had left Hong Kong to search for the
Russian squadron.
Cost of Public Wobship ih Bostoh.— -It is
estimated that tbe current expenses of tbe

four million dollars. The expenses of tbe dif

music costs about $lOOO, and the miscellaneous
expenses will be from $l,OOO to $1,500 a year.
