aler, Esq., bcfMr. Joshua Jt Hayen, the
nomineo for Major, 100 that he could
over-check him. The bet was accepted.
Mr. Chrysler drew his check on Pago,
Uacon & Co. for 3100,000, and Mr. Hav
en for 50 000, Both checks were im
mediately honored by tho cashier, who
was present, and Chrysler won the bet
Mr. Haven then proposed to bet Chrysler
S50,000 that he would beat Mayor C. K.
Garrison for the mayoralty at the ensu
ing election. Tho bet was promptly ta
ien. checks drawn and honored by the
cashier of Page, Bacon & Co., and put up.
This is one of the largest bets ever made
within our knowledge on a local election.
A destructive firo at Pittsburg, Pa.,
broke out on Monday afternoon in the
drug-store of B. A. Fahnestock, corner of
Wood and Front-streets, which was en
tirely destroyed with its contents, valued
at S70,000, of which 850,000 were insur
ed. Several adjoining buildings were al
o more or less damaged.
Freak of an Old Man.
juite an excitement was created in Prov
idence, R. L, on Tuesday last, in conse
quence of a strange freak of an old man
named Lyman Hawcs. The track of the
Providence and Worcester llailroad runs
through land which formerly belonged to
him, and the price of this land had been
assessed by commissioners at a valuation
which he refused to accept. On Tuesday
ho placed a small house erected by him
self upon both tracks, in which he put
several kegs which he said contained pow
der, and then fastened himself inside by
nailing up every entrance to it.
The Boston and Providence train and
the Providence and Worcester train were,
as they came along, brought to a stand
still by the obstruction and detained for
nearly two hours. The old fellow swore
that if they attempted to run the engine
through the house ho would fire he powder
and blow everything around him to atoms.
After a long delay, during which the,
crowd increased to over a thousand peo
ple, the North Providence and the Prov
idenoe police arrived, when they fell to
work, and with well-directed blows soon
smashed in the doors of the house, and
then seized the old man. It was with
difficulty at first that tho crowd could be
.kept from injuring him. He was hurried
away to jail. The crowd then attacked
the house and soon made a complete
wreck of it. About half a keg of powder
onlv was found.
The Russian "War has at last assumed
a phase of profound interest. An allied
army. 5ti.000 strong, has landed in the
Crimea, unobstructed, and is marching
on Sevastopol; while 14,000 men are on
the way from Varna to swell the invading
force to above 70,000. Precisely how
strong the Russians are in the Province
we have no means of knowing, but it may
well be doubted whether in a pitched bat
tle they can cope with the allies; and as j
for a siege, the result at Bomarsund does'
not lead us to expect anything brilliant
from the Russians in the way of defending
fortifications, nor anything very solid in
the fortifications themselves. Nor is our
confidence increased by the fact that the
supreme command in the Crimea is in the
hands of the arrogant and shallow Men
cbikoff, who has never yet distinguished
himself as a soldier. However we shall
see; after having been surprised by the
"bravery and skill of the Turks, the world
may now receive a similar suprise from
-the Russians. At any rate the question
must be rapidly decided; the allies must
promptly capture Sevastopol or take to
their ships again and flee, still more (lis
gracefully than Napier is about to do
from the Baltic.
There is a report from Constantinople
that conditions of peace nave been agreed
upon, but it is a hoax. There can be no
peace till one of the parties is beaten.
The invasion of Russia renders that cer
tain, if there was any doubt about it
before.
From Sjpain we have renewed complaints
xhat Mr. Soule is engaged in revolution
ary machinations, and is spending money
freely for that purpose. From the other
countries there is nothing of special mo
ment. The Eighth Avenue Rank, New York,
failed on Monda'. The bills are amply
secured, but the depositors will be apt to
uffer.

LADIES' INSTITUB
OF THE
Penn Medical University of Philadelphia.
The Fall Term of this new Medical School
for Ladies, will commence on the first Mon
day in Oct'r, 1854, and continue four months.
The System of Teaching, here pursued, is
entirely new, and is more comprehensive,
.thorough, liberal and practical, than that of
any other Medical School in the country. It
is based, as far as possible, upon the positive (
Sciences, consenuentlv. free from all
sects !
and dogmas. The branches of study are di
vided according to their natural order of suc
cession, and taught in four progressive cour-
scs of four months each ; there are two cour
scs in each year, thus enabling the students
to pass successively through all four courses
within two years. By this arrangement the
study is rendered easy, and possessed of daily
increasing interest.
Ladies desiring alhoroughly scientific Med
ical Education, or any part particdlarly in
teresting them, have facilities here nowhere
