Til K FOUEIUN NEWS
The Baltio Hoot has done something at last.
It has bombarded, blown up and burned down
Ssreaborg, one of the etroDg fortresses on the
Baltio coast. At least snoh is tho Eoglish ac
oount of tho matter. There remains, however,
on tho routs to Bt. Petersburg!], Revel, Helsing
fors, and strongest of all Cromtadl, one of tho
strongest fortrossos in the world. Croußtadt is
on an island about twenty five or thirty miles
below St. Petersburgh, and commands tho pas
sago to it by sea. Its fortifications are far
stronger to-day than those of Sebastopol, and
some thirty thousand men are constantly em
ployed in adding now works, additional guns,
and in storing it with provisions and munitions
of war. An army of one handrod and seventy
thousand is near at hand to relievo and replen
ish its garrison. There is now no question of
Russian skill in ereotlng fortifioations, or of
Russian courage and determination in holding
them. The mighty Solavonlo race that once
overrun and subduod half Europe and Asia has
not degenerated under tho stern rule of the Ro
manoffs. If Cronstadt, thus fortified, and de
fended by such soldiers, falls before the Allied
Hoot, then we may consider tho Russian power
humbled, and the capital of tho empire lost.
But that fortross will not be token IMb year nor
next. The Czar Nicholas said it would bo a ten
year’s war; and it is quite likely to be suoh un
less the Allies abate Bomewhat of th6ir present
demands.
Wo are informed by the last arrival, too, that
there has been a severe battle to the South-oast
of Sebastopol, along the Tohernayn. The Rus
sians under Liprandi attaoked tho Sardinians
and Freuoh, and after three hours hard fighting
the Russians retreated. The English aoconntls
that the Russians lost four or five thousand
men, while the loss of the Allies was “trifling!’
That is the usual report at first; but after a de
lay of a week or two wo got the Russian acoount,
and the truth is known.
the republican convention.
A resolution offored in tho Convention on Wed
nesday by Mr. Irwin is rathor singularly word
ed. It dißoards all objections to men on acoount
of birth-place. That resolution was aimed at
the Know Nothing—condemns their seoret ope
rations, and their prejudice against foreigners ;
but it says not a word about religious prejudices.
While tho effort is thuß made to concilliate for
eigners, not a word oould be said against drag
ging religion into politics. It Booms to bo left
to be inferred that the abolitionists can sympa
thise with the Know Nothings so far as hatred
of Catholics is concerned, but not as to natural
ized citiieuß.
It was a fortunate thing that Mr. tfrrett
was in tho Convention. But for him the Pass
more Williamson case would have been forgottou.
What a loss of capital that would have boeo
The balanoo of the resolutions are all anti-slav
ery, and nothing else- Not a word about Pro
hibitory laws, or any of the interests of the
county or State. But as tho Republican party
don’t expect success this year it is needless to
scrutinize its resolutions.

that tho violent course of Northern Abolitionists

THE WAR IN EUROPE
PROSPECT OF A RESTORATION OP
THE HOLY ALLIANCE.’’
[Correspondency of tie Philadelphia Ledger.)
Auqbbubg, August Bth, 1855
The tranquility whioh roles in Germany, and
the determination which exists on the part of
the prioces uot to engage in war, is now mani
fest to the naked eye. Not only has Austria
disbanded fall one-third of her army, but she
is also selling her “ over-complete” horses.
This is the new pbaßC by whioh Austria conceals
her pacifio mteotiotfs to the Allies ; but they
are truly, and at their full value, appreciated in
St. Petersburg. Emperor Alexander has ex
pressed his entire satisfaction with the conduct
of Austria, and the Prussian orthodox organs
arojactually enjoying, before-hand, the pleasure
of seeing the Holy Allianoo the firm and oot-to*
bo-shaken union of Russia, Prussia and Austria
re-established on its fotcner basis. Bussia is
ready to recclvo tho pretty flirt with open arms,
swearing to forget all her escapades and all
her indiscretions. Prussia is content to lec
: ture her a little on her want of steadiness. Yet
all admit that without her, existence is a bur
den ; whilo England and France can testify that
with her living is just as irksome and quite ns
monotonous. Austria seems to bo juvenited.
tiho has once more entered on her teens, and her
suitors are just as numerous as dating tho pe
riod of her maidoahood. May she not havo
another yoiith of folly, may none of her
discarded lovers ever think of making her pay
the penalty of her gallantry. The poor inno
cent would not survive such a disgrace i Her
reputation is so extremely delioate that the
least breath is apt to destroy it.
While the conduot of Austria is variously com
mented upon In Germany herself, every German
state seems anxious to imitate her example.
The German Diet, at Frankfort on-the-Maine,
has jast resolvod to oontinue its army on the
war footing, but Prussia, Bavaria, Saxony,
Wurtemburg, Baden, and even the insignifioant
town of Labeok, in the Baitio, are—not disband
ing (that woold be an act of disloyalty to tho
confederation,) bat dismissing their troops on
farlough. Nothing but the cadnes remain, and
Germany, which a year ago, w&a rubbing hor
eyes, leading tbo world to suppose that she was
about to wake from her long sleep, has just
turned round—in the bed—to take a nap on the
other side. 1 have often heard it assorted by
physicians, that children grow most whiio asleep
—bat 1 did not know that philosophers of state
applied tho same principles to a people with two
thousand years history on its back. Germany
is snoring so loud, that tho bear of St. Peters
burg, tho new fledged eagle of France, the Brit
ish lion, and the turkey buzzard, in Constanti
nople, aro rejoiced at it. There will be no gene
ral war as long as Gcrmauy remains neutral, no
matter how long the war continues iu the Black
Sea and the Baitio. But as long as thero is no
genoral war. all hopes of a gcucral peace muM
remain delusive. A lasting pcaoe can ouly come
aftor long war, carried on after tho present fa
ahion, and will not last long with the materials
of war accumulated in every quarter.
The salo by Austria of her ovor-completo
horses, which is already imitated here in Ba
varia, more and better than the text cf her di
plomntio effusions, explains her apeQifij intern
tions ; but it is a mistake to suppose that, in
spite of her obligations towards Russia, (of
whioh a letter of the Empress Dowager of Hus
sia to Aroh Dutchess Sophia, mother of the
: present Emperor of Austria, was kind enough
to remind her,) she has tbo slightest idea now
of taking any active stefa against Franco or
England. Austria Is uot in a condition to act
a decisive part —she has already exceeded the
measure of her copacity--but she will redouble
her efforts at negotiations, and you must not be
sarprisod, no matter whether the noxt storm of
the Allies on the Malakcfl tower is successful
or not, to seo the Conferences of Vienna ie
newed. Everything is now being prepared fur
that purpose, as i cau assure you, from a Bource
eminently calculated to be woll informed, that
all tbo parties ongaged in the prescut war, but
especially Rossia and Franco, would be but too
happy if Austria wrro to succoed in her media
lion. The proposition made by Austria, at the
last conferences, regarding the Third Point, is
not so much a subterfuge ou her part, as a real
mezzo (ermine proposed by her to the belligerent
powers,.which, if accepted, woold at once load
to a truco, and theuco to the complete pacifica
tion of Europe. U is in this sense that the
conductor Austria must be juJgod The clh
cia! acts of the French government and certain
mystifications in the British Parliament, to which
Lord John RobsoU fell a victim, show conclu
sively that the Western powers were not stran
gers to the true interpretation of tho Austrian
proposition, and that neither cf them ia entirc
[•* convinoed that the time may not arrive when
it '•ill bo prudent to aocept it.
RUaia is quite as nufiih tired of the war as
the AuqJ Powers. If not more so. She may
sailer Isg in the Crimea, chough late uews from
tho Penitky) ft «?oms to throw doubts on that
suljoct,) hu her population at large feels the
consequencoS\f th o war more disastrously than
oither that of or England. If the cnor
mous fleets of and France have hither
to proved utterly to reduce either
Cronstadt or Sebastopq they havo certainly suf
ficed to destroy tbo of Russian oom
moroe in those Beas. agriculturist, ,
.who can no iongor export h lt and whpso.l
wealth in ground and catllo may
seized to subeorvo the necessities of tne State,
does not bestow tho same labor on his fields, and
is not an oxtonsive cattle breeder. Ho Ls glad if
tho Emperor will enrol his serfs in the army,
for ho has no use for them iu tbo field. Again,
Russia enoounters no lees diitlculty in transport
ing her own troops over hor immense steppes
than have hitherto been experienced by all her
invaders. The oattle driven from tho interior
of Russia to tho Crimea eats its own value on
tho way, and lays the oouotry waste over whioh
it travels, so that large transports and the horses
of the oavalry suffer dreadfully on tho way.
The condition of tho Allies, in this respect, Is
infinitely bolter ; but the minute they qait the
coast, it will be as bad, and worse than that of
tho Russians. Their strength consists in their
ships, in the facility of transports, in the easy
and uninterrupted communication with their de
pots of arms and provisions, and in the imtnense
resources derived from thoir oommoroial navies.
All these, bowover, are only available near the
ooaet, and hence it Is almost certain that beyond
tbo blows attempted at Sebastopol and Cronstadt,
oothing serious is intended against any province
of Russia.
Like the war ugniußt China, the demonstra
tions of hostility will be confined lu the soa
shore, and consist principally in a rigid blookade
of all tho commercial ports, lu no oaso will
Russia proper bo invaded, and in no caso would
an aotual invasion prove otherwise than disas
Lrous lo tho Allies. Even if Austria wore to
join them in good earnest, and with all hor avail
blc means, Russia like the United States, would,
in a war of dofonoe for her religion, her govern
ment, and her firesides, be more than a match
for her invaders. Russia knows that, and bonoc
her obstinate refusals to listen to torms whioh
she thinks incompatible with hor honor odJ tho
credit she hoe thus far labored to establish in
the East. Tbo Instruction of a town or a for
tress may bo one of tbo eventualities of the war,
but to agree to It, or to do it voluntarily is im
possible. Russia will not yield ; but as soon as
the roar of oannon beforo Bebastopol shall havo
subsided, we shall again hear tho language of
diplomacy —this time, perhaps, with moro ctfeot.
In anticipation of this renewal of negotiations,
tho officious organs of Austria—tho official or
gans havo a care not to oommit themsolves —
speak already of the four points of the treaty of
2d December os the basis of further negotiations,
accompanying the remark with the threat that
the Imitation of power in the East is intended by
Austria to It not only a measure to prevent Rus
sian preponderance in Constantinople , but also at a
check on the possible ambition of France and En< ■
land. The Augsburg Journal, whioh is always
woll informed about Austria and the Austrian
Cabinets, and whoso Vienna correspondents aro
employod in tho Imperial Chanoery, contained of
late several articles in that sense, whioh scorn to
have been well received throughout Uormany,
but of whioh 1 havens yet seen few translations
into any other langdago. 1 beard it assertod the
other day, in a circle of diplomatists, that there
is no oertainty in regard to the Eastern question,
and that the caso is possible In whioh Russia,
Austria and Prussia may yet bo oolted In a
treaty, defensive and offensive, against tbo am
bitious projects of France and England.
Whilo these things are thrown out in no offi
cions manner, Austria and Fronoo toko great
pains to Bay to each other pretty things in a
diplomatic way. If you believe tho tone of the
Parisian papers, and the effusions of the official
Gazette of Vienna, you would believe that tho
two Emperors, Napoleon and Francis Joseph,
are ready to fly into oaoh other’s arms and swear
an “eternal friendship,” as Mr. Wobstor once
oallei the short truoe botseen Martin Van Bu
ren and John C. Calhoun. Eaoh soems to be
determined to dupe the other, until the day shall
oome when they must meet caohjother with the
visor up. I adhere firmly to the opinion, that
the present sleepy attitude of Germany, and tho
retrograde movement of prolong
the war indefinitely, unless Austria oqcceed this
ensuing winter in inducing the belligerents to
listen to her councils

KlgUu thcm iiulek and Well.
Tic London Advertiser of a recent date, in an
article, incidentally touching npon American
afiaira, took occasion to contrast the condition
and prospects of tho Uoion with thoso of Great
Britaiu. Among other things it said :
“ Contemplate Eogland, groaning with taxa
tion, and struggling in a sanguinary war, with
her trade deranged, her populace discontented,
her government the corrupt maohino of an
oligarchy, and her revenues squandered for she
knows not what—and oontrast hor with Ameri
ca —tho Amc-rioa that British Cabinet Ministers
treat with so much indifference, whoso states
men are cultivating tho arts of peace, and whose
commerce is gathering a golJeo harvest to the
nation. She it is that stands boldly forward in
hor civil greatnesß ; Bhe it ia that presents a
striking contrast to tho military despotisms of
Europe ; she it is that—with her two thousand
miles of unguarded coast, her unwalled cities,
her moagro navy—combines within herself the
elements necessary to a great military natioo.
Feace reigns at her fireside; hor throne is not
in mourning. Her legislators are devising means
to reliove an overflowing treasury, her trado ia
vigorous, her peoplo are increasing beyond com
parison in wealth, ilor government is at least
cheap and useful. Would that we oould say the
same. EugtanJ spends her blood and treasure
in fighting the battles of unthankful neighbors.
America fights her own battles—she tights them
juick and well.”

Ctlrsortllnary ttiie and Kail oC Water'
The Lake Superior Journal mentions an ex
tmordinary rise and fall of water in the Ship
(]&Dal a few days since, varying from about ten
to fourteen feet The water &bovo the rapids
did not vary in depth, and the fluctuation below
was probably caused by tbe wind. Tho Journal
aids .
In the summer of 15.’.7 an extraordinary re
tr.-cession of waters took placo r.t the rapids
The phenomenon occurred about uoon. The
was clear but cloudy. Tho water retired
-nddcnly, leaving tho bed of the river bare, ex
cept for the distance of twenty rods, where tho
channel is dcepest<and remained so for the space
of an hour A numbor of persons wcat oat and
caught fish in the pools formed by tho depreo
aion iu tho rocks. Tbe return in the waters
was sudden nuJ presented an imposing spectaole.
They came down like an immonse turge, and
those who had incautiously wandered iq to the
river bed had barely time tirescape, being over
whelmed. Odo of the number had taken n stur
geon and determined to save his prz•?, but the
burden caused him to move rauph slower than
tho rest, and he was obliged to throw the fish j
away, and cling to one of tho boulders in order ;
to escape bciug carriod eff into the river below. |
Ho stayed there until the water resumed its übu- 1
al aspect, when be was taken off in a canoe.
Tho rapids presented nearly tbe sarao appear- j
anco on tbe 18th, with the exception, perhaps, '
-ttaythey were not quite as dry os represented

A KotAL CoußTautK—A London correspon
dent of tho Boston Post tho Queen is troub
led about an “ affair of tbe heart” between the
Princess Royal and tbe King of Portugal, now
od a visit to tho English Court.
Not that there is anything objectionable in
tho latter, either it mind, morals, or good looks,
that would rendor him an undesirable husband
or son-in*law, or in the throne ho has to fill,
which is all on anxious mother could inspiro at
ter for one of her four daughters—nor that tho
Quoen would not gladly boo tho Princess Koyal
well disposed of in marriage—but that the young
King H a Roman Catholic, and Is thus debarred
from allying himself by marriage with au heiress
however distant, of tho British crown. Moan
while tbe young King has fallen violently in love
with tbo fair girl of fifteen, who is not insonei
bio to his merits,and lets no occasion, either pass
by presents,messages or tokens when he is absent
or by tondor looks whon ho Is present, to mani
fest her sincere affection. They are not, of
oourso, suffered to meet, oxoopt in tho presence
of othors; but there aronumerouß occasions du
ring tho morning walks and rides, or the steam
er trips in the bay, when the lover can manifest
the sentiment of his heart to the object of his
pursuit It ie whispered that among tbo nu
merous toaobore employed to perfect tbe royal
children in tho knowledge of the modern langua
ges, there is one who is a sabjoot of His Mnjesty,
and who is dovotedly attached to him, and
that through him oommuuicalicnd bavo passed
for a long time, which never moet the august
scrutiny of the QaeeD.

terday at the Little Miami Railroad Depot, be

youthful vender of light literature :
Boy —(Entering tho car with a busy air and
nimble tongue.) Who wants a good book to

first rato ones too they are—(to our passonger.)
Can’t 1 sell you tho “ Confessions of a Pretty

Passenyer— Not if 1 have to buy them—they’re

Boy —Here’s the “Jealous Wife” theu—won’t

GREAT DISCOVERY!
AMPLE TESTS, both by abl» Practitioners end Chemi
cal Analysis, hove demonstrated the great value of
PROP. DE QBATIFS beautiful combination,called 11 ELEC
TRIO OIL,” for the relief and core of Pain. Bat the people
themselves are rendering their verdict in a manner both
unmlstakeable and satisfactory. More than 20,000 bottles
have be*-n sold In a very short time—a great proportion to
those who heard otters recommend it, who had tried if.
That it Is a splendid dlseoTexy is everywhere acknowledged,
and nothlog like It was ever t afore prepared. Why, for
Cbrns alone, It Is worth $lOO,OOO a year to the people, as U
always cores these painful tormentors in homty-four hours.
But what is U not worth to the people if it cores Pali
Rheum, Erysipelas, Canker, Ulcers, Sores of all kinds, (fre
quently taking away all the pain In twenty-four hohraj
Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Palpitation, Headache, Bronchi dal
Piles, Womb Complaints, Cramps, Sprains, Sore or BweUed
Breast, Felons, Wounds of all kinds, Ac. 7 Would $600,000
express Its valne to the people 7 Jfo. Because a man wilt
give freely fox relief from pom. Will this OU relieve pain T
Certainly it toiff. Snob men as we have often named, hon
orable and merchants, mayors, doctors and
others have so said, after from ten to fifty trials. They say
the Electric OU Is the finest medical combination ever pre
pared, neither offensive nor Injurious, but effectual in all
the above and many other cases. Some honorable and
heavy business firms have, it Is true, sold some of the old
(turpentine, bituminous, or coal tar, Ac. Ac.) external ap
plications, untu their customers returned bottle after bob
tie, with the remark that M the remedy was worse than the
painyet snch men have new recommended nor given
countenance to them. But eee eome of oar best merchants
ordering more every ten days, and uftso#* giving additional
testimony to thayaluo of’this wonderful discovery. lhat
a great many ladies are using it as a medicinal toilet article
for themselves and their children. Is well known. It cures
aU pimples, blotches and eruptions on the free and neck lns6
short a time, you would scarcely Credit it. It frequently
reduces a painful noeUing In two hours; haa done it in ha.f
an hoar; cured many effectually in six hours. If ladles
knew the soothing, strengthening and heating virtues In this
Oil, they wo old never M induced to use anything else for
womb complaints or pains of any kind.
We now Insert a letter just received from Henry Wiley,
Esq., who went to England six weeks since, (to die.)
Loanon, July 12, ib&a
Paor. Da GaATO, Phil*—Dear Sir: When 1 left home for
my health, (scrofulous eruptions, Aa*) I never expected to
return again, believing that my complaint* would soon
carry me off. When you gave me three bottles of your
Electric Oil to take with me, aa merely a palHatioe, 1 did
mot think 1 would eo very soon be called upon to thank you,
as I now do, for my complete restoration.
I can only say, before the departure of the steamer, that
you have only to coma here with your OIL to make a for
tune in ons vear. There is not another FhnU*r medicine in
England, if in the world. I will write by next steamer.
Your* most truly, Hskbt Wtm.
It cannot be their who state that old sores,
that have discharged from sis months to five years, have
been cured by this OIL It cannot be untrue, nor a decep
tion, where pain is relieved in one dav, often In half an
hour. /No! common eenee dictates no/—and 600 written
lettexBßay.no/ Come and see them. A regular Doctor In
attendance Ladles can consults Lady,privately, by
dropping, a line to the office. Advice from a distance, mak
ing inquiries that any physician can answer, will be
promptly attended to. Always enclose a stamp, as our ear
vice* are freely given, and-we are drawn upon too often in
thip way. All cases treated liberally, with or without the
Oil, mi have two Physicians associated for this express
purpose, Prot O. DE
