to so small a matter.
BEBASTOPOL OB LOUIS NAPOLEON.
An oastern Exchange paper thinks that So*
bastopol or Napoleon must fall. We think so
too.
It is well known that the French Emperor was
the originator of the expedition, and that the
English commanders for a long time opposed it.
but the Frenoh counsels prevailed ; and a most
disastrous enterprise was undertaken. Let the
French Emperor make peaoe now, without ta
king the beleagured city, and the French nation
will deem itself forever disgraced. Hence the
project of the Emperor to go himself to the
Crimea, and take command of the army in per
eon. Sebastopol most be taken or his throne
may speedily bo lost. Meantime Bebastepol is
very strong. Its vast defences have been
strengthened day by day, thronghout the fall
and winter. An army of 30,000 men have
labored incessantly to render it impregnable.
Every street is fortified, and can be swept by
cannon. More than two thousand cannon, man
ned by gunners of remarkable skill, can be
brought to bear upon tbe assaulting columns ;
and thirty thousand of the best soldiers of Rus
sia will defend its streots. An army of 150,000
Radians is near, and prepared to strike when
the allies strike. An attempt to take that tre
mendous fortress by a general assault cannot
fail to prove one of the bloodiest tragedies the
world has known ; and the chances are against
the allies. Yet Sebastopol must bo taken, o r
moro than one throne may crumble. The Eug-
Ush and French people will brook no each
humiliation as a disgraceful retreat from the
Crimea.
That Strangs land has proved fatal to many a
monarch, and many a dynasty. Seventy invad
ers have aubdned it, and then perished in discs,
ter and despair. Tho usurper on the French
throne may find there an end of bis career of
orime and ambition. He mast take Sebsstopol,
or lose his throne; and Sebastopol is vtry Btroug;
and can shake a province with the thunder of
its artillery. Nover had monarch or desperado
a harder task to accomplish than tho French
nsarper, if ho would save his throne. Ho should
depart at once for that distant, famous and
blood stained land, that has for thirty centuries
proved a common gruvo of so many dynasties
anl kings, and win glory enough to
his throne, or be buried alongside the traitor
son of Mithradatcs, and many another wreck of
royalty that lies bnried there.
The rulers of England, too, must take Sebas
topol, or encounter such a storm of popular in
dignation as bos never before shook the English
throne. The national honor, tho nation's safety
demand success where snoccss iB almost impoß
posslble. It was an ill-starred expedition ; op
posed by England’s generals; but the proud and
brave nation is forever disgraced if it fails.
That strange land of Crimea may prove as fatal
yet to modern as to ancient dynasties.
Then, there is another task equally gigautio
to be accomplished in the coming season ; and
E agland mast bear the largest share of the peril.
Cronstadt must be taken. Its granite walls
mnst bo battered down by Bhips. Its vast arma
ments mast bo silenced by floating batteries ;
and a defending army of a quarter of a million
vanquished. Already the first division of tho
fleet that mast accomplish this mighty task has
sailed for the Baltic, and the others soon follow.
It is no wonder tho rulers of England are anx
ions for peace. Their fleots, on whioh tho power
and safety of England depend, may be crushed in
the effort to take a fortress that has perhaps
bat one equal for strength in the world. Should
the war--oontinne, great events and disastrous
battles will probably long distinguish the year
1855.
Wtn Penn on the Rendition or Slaves.
A curious dooameat has come to light, show
ing Wm. Penn’s opinions in regard to slaves
being returned to their masters. It was made
public in an interesting speech of Mr. C. S.
Ward’s before tho Pioneer Hietorical Society, at
Oswego, N. Y. Mr. W. saye it is marked “Wil
liam Penn, to the Susquehanna Indians,” and is
to be found in the archives of Pennsylvania.
Here it is:
“Ml Good Fbiexds: Tho people of New York havirg
again wrote earnestly to me abont those prisoners taken by
you, especially ye woman and ye boy, saying that they
bought them fairly or the Governor of Corolloa, was cold
them for Slaves. And they being very good Friend? and
Neighbors, and all under the same King, I must therefore
you to deliver the said Woiimd and Boy to the bearer
hereof, Silvester, who will carefally carry them to New
Castle, and there put them on board of a vessel bound di
rectly for New York—and by eo doing, you will greatly
oblige Your very good Friend and Brother,
HoBPITAL POE THE INSANE OP WESTERN PENN.
stlvania. —We learn from HarrUburg that the
Btatennnt in our paper the other day to the ef
fect that “ the House committee of Ways and
Means reported the Supplement to the Aot in
corporating the Western Pennsylvania Hospital
with & negative recommendation/’ was an error.
It was reported as committed. This is favorable
to the bill. We aro heartily glad of it; for, as
we undertook to prove by figures some weeks
ago, there is need—great need—of an institution'
for the Insane of Western Pennsylvania. As it
will cost a large sum of money to found a new
hospital, and as the Btato flounces will hardly
•imlt of a henry expenditure at presont, let the
Legislature do the next best thing—let it make
•a appropriation to the Western Pennsylvania
Btspitai, so as to enable it to add a number of
Wtrds for the use of persons. If this
thing is done, and dono qufokly, we are certain
it trill be endorsed by their constituents, not only
of Western, bat also of Pastern Pennsylvania.
We observe that Wm. H. Hope, Esq.,
fO'merly of the Washington Star, has purchased
an interest inlhe Baltimore Argus, an able and
widely circulated Democratic newspaper. Mr.
Sops has great taot and experience as a jour
nalist. With two such men as Messrs. Allen
& Hope, the Argus will thrive end do good ser
fjoe in the cause of the Democracy.

STORMING OF THE MALAKOEF REDOUBT.
Describing tbe recent Biormiog of a Russian
redoubt by the French, the London Ttmea B&ys,
editorially :
“It appears by the last accounts that tho
purpose of the allied generals ia still fixed on
the prosecution of the siege by means of a bom-
bardment, followed by au assault. Two experi
mental attacks have been made by the French,
in two different ways, whioh serve to show that
it U not easy to gain an advantage over our in-
defatigable antagonist. It appears from both
the Russian and French reports that on the
night of the 2let of February the Russians suc
ceeded in throwing up with great rapidity a
new redoubt on tho right bank of tho carceoiug
harbor. Within forty-eight bourß General Can
robert resolved to force tho new position, and
the attack was made before tbe work had been
completed. A large body of French troops, un
der General Monet, advanoed in tho night of the
23d against this redoubt. The Zouavtß rushed
upon the intrenchments with the utmost bravery,
and a sanguinary contest ensued, which cost
nearly 500 of these admirable soldiers.
The Russian infantry regiments of Selenghin
eki and Volbynia, under General Kroustchaff,
defended the work with great steadiness, and
after a sovere combat tbo French wero compelled
to retreat. This unfortunate result has been
attributed to eoveral causes—the disclosure by
spies of the French plan of attack, the fire of
the Ru 9 ian vessels in the harbor and from the
surrounding forts, and a want of steadiness on
tho part of one portion of tho assailants, who
are said to have left tbo Zouaves to bear the
brunt of the engagement. Wo arc unable to de
termine with certainty what amount of truth
thero may be in these statements, but it is un
doubtedly true that the Russians app ar to have
expected tho attack, and had occupied tho po
aition with a Rtnall army Tatber than with a de
tachment in proportion to its extent. On tbe
aide of the French, tho forco consisted of only
half a brigade of Zouaves, I.GOO strong; two
battalions of marines, 2,300 strong, and 400
volunteers: in all less than 4.G00 men.
“Tbe Russians were 10,000 strong, and the
unfortunate 7.?aaves fell into a regular ambus-
cade. Nevertheless, such was the dauntless
vigor of these troops, that they stormed the re
doubt and held one-balf of it agaiost fearful
odds, when the Ilus-ians succeeded in ouitltiik
ing the column; the marines were separatcJ
frum the uoJ driven back in nil direc
tion*, aud ibe latter were completely surrounded
by the enemy. A second time they succeeded,
by sheer hand to haul fighting, in completing
the capture of the rrdcubt, but no sooner had
tbe Russian infantry fallen btek than tbe bat
tcriea and ship* opened a terrific fire upon the
• ork, and rendered it completely untenable. It
was not till then that Gen. Monet, who was
twice severely wounded, ordered a retreat, and,
though the night was disastrous fr-.-m tbe loss o?
many bnndred lives aud tbo failure of the chief
object, tho gallantry dipglajed by tbe '/■ >navc-H
was such that this repulse might well be ranked
with their most hrilliant achievements.”
Tbo Journal o/ St PeUrtlurg gives a bug ac
count of tbo same affair. Tbo report earns up
by saying:
“ Twieo the enemy { French) attempted to re
now the attack, but each time was driven back
with loss to tbo trenches. Finally, after bo
hour's combat at tho point of the bayonet, during
which tbo Russian drummers never ceased to
beat the charge, the enemy was compelled to
retreat, leaving in our power more than a bun
dred killed, among whom were eight itfi'-r*;
Moreover, our troops took 24 prisoners, of whom
f> wvre officers In ail, the bas cf the cnemj
was not under men, for during tbrir retrrat
they were cxporH to tho heavy fire of the neigh
boring bastions, and of the steamers Vladimir,
Ch« rsoncse and Gromcncsseta, anchored in the
roadstead On our side we bed fio men killed.
, and 5 pubalteran officers and 230 men wounded.”

have been used by Sir K;bert Peel, a member
of the present a-J rutotet ration, that “ no settle
meat of the Eastern question would be

Lord Pa'raereton—Sir, in regard,to that mem

Sir, t*io question of the noble lord rat her refers
to tbo policy of ber Majesty’s gcmmim-nt. (>*
that l am prepared to give him the fullest exp la

Poland l have no hesitation in stating my own
opinion, that tho kingdom of Poland, as at pre
sent constituted, and as at present occupied, is
a standing menace to Germany. It ia for tbo
powers of Germany to determine how far they
may think tbe constitution of Poland is or is Dot
dangerous to them, and whether under circam
stances which may lead them in'o war with Rus
sia, they wonld think it for their interest to en
deavor to change the position of affairs But
undoubtedly no stipulation in regard to a new
arrangement of Poland forms part of those points
upon which her Majesty’s government ar.: now
iu concert with the government of Franoenego
tiatiog at Vienna. That negotiation is carried
on on the basis of tbo four points, which are
well known to everybody. Tho two powers havo
reserved to themselves the right according to oir
oumstanoe, and according to tbo events of tbe
war, if hostilities should continue, either by a
prolongation or a break in the negotiations—
they have reserved to themselves tho right cf
adding in future to those four points any other
stipulations they think necessary for tbe future
security of Europe. Bat at present, negotiations
aro going on on those four points. That is ihe
policy of her Majesty’s government with regard
to Hungary, and with regard to Poland,
Lord W. Graham said tbe noble lord had no
answered the question.
Lord Palmerston I have stated that tho
Austrian ambassador is perfectly cognizant of
tho policy and intentions of hor Majesty’s gov
ernment, and there has not been auy secret or
reserve aboat it.
Alexander*! Speech to the Corps Dtplo*
matique.
Tho Czar’s speech to the members of the
corps diplomatique on the 7th was more tempe
rate ia tone, and is as follows:
11 1 am persuaded, gentlemen, that all yonr
courts fed sincere sorrow at tho misfortuno that
has befallen us. 1 have alroady received proofs
of it from all sides ; they havo greatly moved
mo, and 1 stated yesterday, to tho ministers of
Prussia and Austria, how muoh I appreciated
them. 1 solemnly deol&re here before you, gen
tlemen, that l remain faithful to all the sonti
menta of my father, and thatl will persevero in
the line of politioa! principles whioh served as a
rule to my uncle, the Emperor Alexander, and
to my father. These principles are those of the
holy allianoe. If that alliaooo no longer exists,
it was not my father’s fault. Hie intentions
were always upright and royal, and, if recently,
thoy were misunderstood by some persons, I
do not doubt that God and history will do him
justice.
«» I am ready to contribute towards a good un
derstanding, on the conditions which he accep
ted. Like him, I desire pcaoo, and wish to sec
the evils of war terminated; but if the confer,
cnees which are about to open at Vienna do not
lead to a result honorable for us, then, gentle
men, at tbe head of my faithful Russia, I will
: combat, with tho whole nation, and will porieh
sooner than yield. As to my personal senti
ments for your sovereign (addressing the min
ister of Prussia) they have not varied. I have
never doubted of the fraternal affection and
friendship which his majesty the king always
had for my father, and 1 have already told you
how grateful lam to him for it. I am deeply
sensible of the kiod words which the Emperor
has oaused to be transmitted to me on this oo
oaßion, [addressing the minister of Austria] and
his majesty oannot doubt of the eiocere affection
which my father entertained for him at a period
whioh he himself has reoalled by on order of the
day addressed to the army.
41 Be kind enough, gentlemen, to oommnnicate
my words to your respective oourte.”
The Policy of the Czar la Warlike!
Acoounts from Bt. Petersbnrgh, probably re
liable, of date March 9, state that the substance
of the Czar Alexander’s speeches to the repre
eentatives of tho different bodies and adminlsira
lions of tbe state, may be condensed into these
words: “ £ will maintain firmly the pl&os traced
bat by my father i” In his address to the Conn-

Bttongly:
“I solemnly declare.” said he, “that I will
not give up the first inch of Russian territory to
our enemies 1 I will take pood care to prevent
their penetrating any further on tho soil of our
country, and never! —never I—may my hand
wither first!—will I affix my signature to a
treaty which shall bring the slightest dishonor
on the national honor l”
This speech was responded to with vehement
applause.
