The only important item of mews is the circumstance that difficulties have arisen between Russia and the Allies, respecting the adjustment of the boundaries assigned by, the treaty of Paris. The occupation by the Russians, of the Isle of Serpents, is the principal, subject of dispute, although the non delivery of Ears is also considered to demand ex planation. In consequence of Acme Misunder standings the whole of the English fleet remaining in the East, have been ordered to concentrate in the Black Sea to "superintend" the execution of the 20th article of the treaty of Peace.: A des. patch via. Berlin states that the Russian Minister, on his way to Constantinople, is charged to effect an adjustment of these matters. From Spain we are almost destitute of news.

WEJLSE for the following communication on Ventilation of Mines, from Me. Thoi. Walton, an Attentive perusal.' We will publish the papers on this important subject in continuation,,until com pleted On Ventilation. EEO Ms.. Entroa:-1 think a description of - the principles of action, and general construction. with remarks and suggestions on ventilating furnaces, air shafts or chim neys _and their Immediate counexions, will be of inter est to most all your numerous readers, and I hope there is that rontaluedin the present essay, which wilt" lead those whom it most materially concerns, to search for farther information on the subject, and on ventilation in general. . . 1 ears of experience In mining operations have brought forward the furnace as the most efficient meet's' used, for promoting a. perfect and uniform ventilation, although there is amide room for improvement to be made in A be ventilating far ...ace. and far greater results may be oh 'tabled by a judicious modification, than there has been . . yet with the furnace in Its present state of use.. Yet its have been tested, and are proved superior to any other means hitherto tried. Steam-jets, waterfalls and ventilating machines, hare all fared to overthrow the furnace. which still ricualna the universal favorite among practical meu. Ventilating machines are subject to accidents and temporary stoppages- Steam jets are linicie to like defects. and water falls can not always be conveniently obtained, of *efficient force toad indepen• dently, or without a combinatlim with some other power. Bet the ventilating fern:tie is practically applicable In all rases, and under any circumstances. If the principal maids to a mine are by way of level drifts, a chimney or stack may be built. and connected with one of those drifts leading to the workings of the mine. If the — fu nacc.--mati;placed at the bottom of the chimney or at the ! mouth of the drift near the bottom of the chimney, it would draw a current of air from the workings of the mine by the way of this drift, and eject It through the chimney shaft Into the atmosphere. The satne or an equal quantity of air will be entering byway of some other drift, when it is left to be directed or conducted round the workings of the n.ine, as to dislodge all the impure gases which will of course be carrkel off by the" current to the furnace, and are thus got rid of by ascend ing through-{ho chimney into the air. If shafts are sunk to the..velarat the depth of several hundred. feet below the surface, and a shaft or part at any shafeparti tioned off from the principal shaft. and apportioned to . the use of the furnace as an air shaft, this shaft or part of a shaft would act to the furnace as an immense tall chimney—and every one knows that the draught caused by a final" increased with the height of the chimney.— The furnace may in a manner be termed a never falling ventilating power; for after the tire In the former his been extinguished, the heat of the furnace and chimney (or more properly and to save confusion, the air shaft,) will keep the ventilating current in motion for several weeks afterwards. Out this is only so In deep mines.— The draught of short air shafts does not motinue so long after the tire has been extinguished, yet the' draught, is continued long enough to admit of necessary repairs be ing done near the furnace, or In the air shaft. When -the furnace Is in working order it is easily managed and kept In repair, and any amount of air between ten thou sand and one huudnal thousand cubic fret per minute, can be circulated through the workings of a =baby the action of a single furnace. ' lint bei b re we proceed farther it Will be necessary to know something of the mechanical action, and choral cal:propaties of our atrnosphere,or of the element In Which we live and breathe, for on the mechanical action. and chemical constitution and action of the atmosphere, is the.ventllating furnace and wentlhdiru itself founded It Also Performs numerous offices in the economy of na ture which it is needless to mention hire.' The atmosphere Is proved to be a fluid or gaseous body, ecurroundiog the entire globe, and extending from forty flv.e to fifty miles above its surface. This fluid is trans. parent, elastic and ponderable and on account of lts alas. ticity,and the weight of its superior column, it is great ly compressed on the surface of the earth. The com pressing force of the atmosphere amounts to nearly tit teen pounds per every square Inch of the earth's surface. This pressure applies le,every surface exposed to the air. We foci no inconvenkniee from this nominee on the stir. face of our bodies—which amounts to 30,000 lbw on the body of en ordinary sized man—because the pressure - acts in every possible direction, and when acting on one surface of our bodies. it Is counteracted by a similar pressure on a surface directly the opposite, thug the prep- extra which acts on the back of the hand, is counteracted by the same amount of pressure acting on the palm, The pressure is the , seine internally iii:Ahe lungs Mad Maulvessels as _ it is externally. Advantage is taken of this in cupping, which Is a surgical operation of forcing blood from different parts of the body, which will not admit of being bled b lancing. It consists of cutting a number of wounds with a sharp instrument, and over those wounds a cupping glass Is placed, from which the air Is Pumped; then the pressure acting on the other surfaces of the body, and on the blood voflepts. forces the blood from the vessels into- the cupping "glasses. The Pressure on the back of the glees keeps it forcibly in its p,citiou,on psi t which it is applied.. if the prew sure on the outer surtmeotctur bullies Was greater than it is Internally, we arotdd be unable to draw; breath...-. This may very simply be mailed a p , atandlng sukto the in in water, then the pressure -water,an- tan outer surfate of our bodies would be ded to the , *Mare of the attirephare, which renders It quite an Whist& • our part, to draw air into the image, as the expandonof the lungs Is attended with the rising, of the tibit. This -would be partially prevented by the extra pressure or water on the ribs. It we descend to a eandderable depth In a diving bell, where the Ali Is etenpreseed, sit bt equal the pressure of water, we feel no inconverdenee In ! breathing whatever, bzi We hot au additions! ;mount ' of resistance. stickle uncommon to as In the open air. Times*a certain amount of , resistance ceased by the pressure of the atmosphere which arrests all moving tto dies on the earth's surface, and the motion of alt raided and Impeded by moving againat bodies In & state of rest. When the pressure of the atmosphere is dimin ished by any natural Weill& at any part of the earth's surface, Olen the surrounding air rudest to this part until the equilibrium's restored, when all remains calm as before. This phenomenon Is sensible to us in. the shape.of wind. • e.said that elf Was ladle and ponderable-or Pee' sewed weighL Then the alreinty be ecardensed or com pressed lute less space by applying a compressing ewe, or it may be expanded mad ratified by epplidag an ex hausting force. Now as the expansion of air takes place under ledneed pressnrei,it tbikauthat steering's.. .b,dghts where the superior column Is not so great se It la on the surface of the earth, the pressure must be reduced, and the air expanded accordingly. Then a cable foot of air will weigh more where the of the atmosphere is greatest, than it in . dons where the pressrun Is reduced. We seethat expands and occupies larger spate under a reduction Of pressure, and if this redac tion of pressure takes place at any part of the earth's surface, and is minuted aarlength of time; a current of air moves towards this part, to supply the partial , vacuum, which will continue along as the vacuum ex ists, or until the pressure is equalised. A reduction of may be obtained by natural Or artificial means: We may conceive this vacuum to be obtained by any blowing machine working In the open ale,used to blow air through any paisitue or through air brnes, or flipee. When the action of the machine takes place, the air In contact with the moving parts of the machine, is slight- ly expanded on one aide of the machine, or on ',the j side 1 from withal* thimotion" recedes; on the other side .It Is compressed which will be more or less according to the resistants+ it meets !abb. - ft its page away - from the machine. When a blowing Machine is solaced in such circumstances. its compreseing or condensing force Is greatest; but If it was placed In the other extremity of the passage, It Would act as an exhausting force, and it would expand the air lathe pass ge, to an equal degree as it was compres.ed when working at the other extremi ty of the passage. If the machine was placed mid way in the passage, the coasprariag ar condensing force, and the exhausting or rarifying force would be equally divi ded on both sides of the maehine. „ The air put In, motion by toschinn4f naadsted other means, mad be governed by the motion of the ' machines, by which it Is moved, and the air which is expanded and condensed by the action of the machine, must expand and outdone to its original bulk, when the farce is discontinued. • , nil cannot be said of air when it Is expanded and put In motion by heat; the heating agent may. be discos-++ tinned, but the air will 'continue in motion until It has i lost all the heat it received, or till it is cooled down to an f, equal heat as the surrounding air. Thus a piece of red 1 hat iron may be placed In the air, then the • particles.' which are in Immediate contact, beelines suddenly heat ed. Heat causes expansion and rarity, and it is a law in all_thdds, that rarer bodies rise and float on the sue d face of more densit bodies. This hes air then at 111 - quires an aseential force from the heat lron i and con tinues to ascend until it has parted 111 ail . this heat. Other portions of air come in contact with the Iron. which would also be - heated, and a continuous current would ascend front - the icon, until the bon became cooled to the Rune temperature as the air. lint the ascending , heated current is retarded and cooled down by the sue' , rounding i4r. This would be partially avoided if the heated air was collected into, and passed through a ver tical funnel. Then motion would hatirect. and the velo city lnanessed. according to the length of the funnel, the I resistance would be on the even surface of the funnel, and in passing into the atmosphere from its upper eid, the advantage of the funnel would be the collection of ' a heated body or column of ilr In. the funnel, which i would be acted upon by an equal columfi of cold air in the open atmosphere.. This being considerably heavier than the heated air lo the funnel by its constant action, would cause a unifirm earned to ascend through the funneL On these principles the action of the , Chimney Is founded, and on them depends the ventilating fur nace and air shaft.- The action of the furnace and air shaft can to a certain extent be governed by science. al. though the chimney was long fin use before Its action was scientifically in vestigated.and it is only comparative ly lately that any important improvements have been made in common furnaces and chinuille Expansion and redaction -of air and its mechanical action are what we must have a tolerably gixxl acquaint anee with; or welkin never rightly understand the ac tion of the furnace. We have seen that the •expanalon of air is effeited in two ways; first by exhaustion qr, a reduction of pressure, and second by calorie or heat.— The use of the ventilating furnace Is to eayand and rarefy the air by heat. This becomes lighter than cold air, and for this reason is forced nit the air shaft by the constant pressure and action of cold air on th 4 furnace . .

A chemical change takes place while the air passes through the firs in the furnace, and it is necessary that some preliminary instructions be given concerning the I chemical constitution and action of air in the support: ing of combustion. Atmospheric air is made essentially of two gases—Nit- i rotten and Oxygen which are in a state of mechanical 1 mixture, and in like proportions, in all parts of the world. A mixture of one part of oxygen and four of nitrogen, is identical to the mixture of-pure air. ' Oxygen is called the vital portion of air because it sup ports UR, and combustion. When isolated this gas is sin gularly energetic in Its properties, and all combustible substances ate rapidly consumed by its vigorous action. It red hot lion wire is held in a jar of oxygen, it 'burns vividly and molten globules of oxide of iron drop from the wire until it is withdrawn from the jar or complete ly consumed. • A piece °lignited charcoal bursts sudden ly into tame, and burns with a brilliancy painful to look at. timall pieces of anthracite Coal are also rapid ly consumed. When diluted with nitrogen as in the at mosphere, its action is not •so vigorous. but its . dogtrot tive effects are evident on many sub:tat:Cm It enters into a slow combustion with iron, and rust or Ain oxide of iron is the produce. It effects the decomposition of tudiving animals and plants, and carbonic acid gas and vapour of water are formed.. Oxygen unites with nearly alhsilnple substances, forming a numerous variety of compounds. . • Nitrogen is as insetire in its properties as oxygen Is active. Theehlef use of nitrogen in the air 'beau; to be, to dilute the oxygen, and reduce its combustible nature, so as to fit it for the numerous °Mee, it Is intend to perform. Nitrogen does not ia with deadly effect p,o. n l the o-ganised animal system, but when it is superabun dant to the air, animals suffer for want of the required amount of oxygen: or it undergoes no change in its chemical nature during the proems, of combustion, al th.ingh it comes in contact-with the burning fuel, when, the oxygen is changed into carbonic acid, carbonic :ox ide, and vapour of water. . -.. • : (To be ontfinned.)

Congress met on Thursdiy, in eatra session.— After the organisation of the two houses, and the interchange of messages, mutually informing to that erect, a mcmagii from the . :President was re ceived. • The message recites the failure of the army ap- . prooriation bill, as the cause for calling the extra. session, and says that, with the exception of partial authority tested by law in . the Secreton - , of War, to contract for the supply,of clothing aud subsistence, the army is wholly dependent on•the appropriatious 'annually made by Congress; that the omission to pass the bill before' the terming- . lion of the fiscal - year, has already caused ember rilsments in the service, and that, if the requisite money be net appropriated, the contracts of enlist remit would be broken, and the army, in effect, disbanded, as the men could not be paid, and no munitions, equipment' or transportation provided. The constriction and repair of arias at the public armories must stop, the fortifications and military poets be abandoned, and tbo army would have to be re-organised before operations could be re sumed. The President calls attention to the un protected state in which some of the frontier set tlments would be loft, as there would be no power to keep the Indians in check. In the Senate, when the message had been read, a resolution was adopted suspending tbe op eration of the twenty first, rule, so far as con cerns the. Army bill. This rule prevents action on any bill for six days after the organization of the Senate. Another resolution was adopted, containing the standing committees of last ses sion. A joint resolution from the House was then passed, providing for the signature of such 'bills as failed for want of time to receive the algae ture,of the presiding officer of each House, or of the President of the United ;State,. - In the House, the Speaker was authorized to appoint Standing Committees. The President's message was referred to the' Committee en Ways ' and Means. Mr. Phelps vainly attempted. to in- • troduce an army appropriation bill without the Kenna proviso. Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, also made an attempt to introduce the bill with the proviso as it failed.on Monday, but without me ws. The Committee on Ways and ,Means being then regularly called for reports, reported this bill. Mr. Orr raised a question-that the proviio was not . gerinain to the bill; and was, - therefore, out of or der. The Speaker overruled the point, and Mr. Orr appealing frorrettardeoision, the Speaker was sustained by yeas 95; nays 79, The House then, by a vote of 101 to 75, .sient-itto committee on the bill. Mr. CaTpbell vainly attempted to en graft on it a proviso declaring the laws of Kansas void, and providing for a new election and the reorganization of the territory. The bill, precise ly tee, it'failed on-Monday , RO9 passed in commit tee, and finally pdssed the House by yeas 93 4 pays 85. ' a. j KANSAS. --4 A despatch from St. Louia; says that a party ofFrie Sailers have attacked ankbeaterm; a party of Pro-Slavery men, at a town ealli4:l Franklin, in Kansas, where fair men were killed On' the side of the latter, and si= on the side of tho former. The cannon stolen from Lawrence by the berJer ruffians was reeaptilred and carried oft, Later intelligence has been received, to the ef fect that a company of ' Free Soilers, headed by the man Brown, who has of late been their4nom reliable and. courageous !cede", a t tack mien d Be rn - It ad the canvass town erected y a band of Georgi ans,,near , Ossawattomie, an which had served merely as strendeavous for ru hers, from Whence gangs of marauders were se 4 forth in all directions to waylay and rob the Prod./State settlers, taking away their horses, wagons, goods, money, etc.— The despatch, which is somewhat obscure, says that Colonel Treadway's company were 'taken f prisoners, This we presume, to refer to a band of ' the Geoigians... Six of the latter were killed.— This attack was fully expected, in various guar- ' term, as these Georgians—alias hlissoitrians--had become , intolerable. i ' • The attack on Franklin, as usual : wi h the pro- slavery press, iu all cases where there is a possi 'Way of so representing things, is niade to appear a dastardly outrage on the'part of the - Free Boil ers. Now, as regards this last Kansas' outrage, .the North Ansericau has a reiniu%seenee which may throw _sumo light on the subject. The North American says: •. • 'We believe that a bloody fight bag occurred just as stated, but we believe - that tall the facts have-been distorted. The town of Franklin is oao of those nests of ruffianism from whence have issued the predatory bands who have, cottimitted, so many murders and robberies in the territaty. The plunder taken from the persons waylaid upon : the roads,:and from the farmhouses robbed and fired, is there stored. It coostitues tho-,prineipal* subsistetice of the town. Some of the miscreants whoinseked Lawrence city lived there and took their plunder thither. The cannoU - sp?ken of in. the telegraphic report as having been_eaptured by tho-Free State men, belonged to Mein add was stolen from Lawrence during the' Sack of that place. A previous attempt was made to storm. Franklin and recapture this cannon; as well as. the rifles stolen from Lawrence, but it failed on account of the plans pf the attacking party hay= log been betrayed previetisly by some spy. The present telegraphic- report is a c very pitiful at: to get up an -excitement aibinst the' Free State men. They have simply taken back their awl:wand the opportunity:fur doing so was tempt ingly left open by the absence of the border fians on the Nebraska frontier preventing the in gress of northern emigrants. Vague intimations in some of the published letters from KaTillts bad led us to expect some attack of this_kind,,and we should not wonder if others were to folloir: Fur the reader must undeßtand that they are expect • ing another invasion front Missouri. All the Blue Lodges are preparing for one grand swoop; when, by a concerted movement all over the Ter— ritory, the Free Suitors will be dispossessed of their lands and houses. It may not come imme diately, but the belief is that it will not. be lung postponed. .An adyintisetnent in the Washington Union gives notiee.that the first sale of 'lauds in the territory *will take in. October, when 208,833 acres will , including the town plot of the City of nwortb, and also of sev. end other towns. T right close to the Mis souri border, and4f enough can be raised for the purpose, an ill then be made to pre, vent the Free S " om making good their ti. ties. These pla well known in Kansas, but money has been ed in the North teaid the Bat tlers in securing taeir lands, and sinless violence be resorted to, the plotters must fail. Intelligence, from. Kansas, via. Chicago,. Aujr, ‘ 19, is as fultowe: "The Frio at,ilera have discovered that the or ganised plan of the Pro-Slavery party ii . to eon. -centrate men,'arnie arid ammunition at different points in-the Territory, for the purpose Of making a sudden and general attack immediately after the adjournment of Congress,and expel all the free State settlers. Twelve fortified blockhouses 'eve been erected at different I'ra•slavery points, which are well supplied with cannon, rifles and ammunition, garrisoned principally by Missoaji. ens. • 4, The Missourians retreated to camp Worthington southwest of Lawrence, and it is feared there will bo further, disturbances between the parties, al thOugh quietness now exists.

' A large meeting we hold in Kansas City, on the I.Stb, at which it was resolvedr to. mud 2000 men immediately into the territory. • A meeting was held at .Lexipgtoci on the 11111.„ and a resolution was passed, that they would send their quota of men, to help settle the ditactilties, by the first boat.
