fords somewhat of an insight Into affairs in
fcyria as they exist at the present time. The
attention of the Turkish government being
absorbed in the war with ltussia, its provin-
. cial population is left without control, with
ample opportunity to manifest the discordant
elements of which it is composed. The let
ter sayg : "Our mails are very irregular, be
cause, every littlo while the post Fs robbed
- omewhere along the road. There is no gov.
rnment outside the towns and cities. Rob-
beries and murders are rife all over the couu
" try, and no attempt is mnde to suppress them.

,uurvesi, uave made the leiiaiicen' quite inde

in the towns and cities suffer most. Tlicir
' .trades are but little worth in these times, and
they have to buy everything at very enormous
rales. As everything is to come right when
'the war' is finished, we may hope for better
times for these poor people when that desir
able event is consuinateu. In the meantime,
as the Arabs say, 'live old horse till grass
grows.' The grass truly will grow some time
or other all that is needed is to do without
until it does grow." Judging from these in
dications, we should say that tourists who
contemplate visiting oyna unci neuer uwor

New Orlkans, .Tune 8. An arrival from
Corpus Christi, brings intelligence of an out
break at Stinpassns, in consequence of the ar
rival of an cmmissaiy of Santa Anna, with or
ders for the arrest of some of its leading citu
kciis, as well as others of Mouterey. The
emmissary was forced to surrender and his
life was spared. The whole country was in
arms, and an atiempt had been" mado to cap.
ture Monterey. The Governor of Xouva
Leon had tied. The dates from Matamoros
are to the 12th ult. Information had been
received there that a pronunciaincnto had ta
ken place at San I.uis Potosi, and the troops
were preparing to leave Matamoros to quell
the insurrection. Chihuahua is also reported
to bo on the eve of a revolution.
ARRIVAL. VI" THE ATLAN TIC.
More Fighting at Scbastopol.
The Atlantic has arrived at New York Rnd
brings tho intelligence that the Allies have
captured Kertsch, in the sea of Azofl and
also the Russian Camp, on Tchernaya, besides
being successful in a number of brilliant ac
tions before Hebustopol.
The news comprises three distinct successes
of the Allies. Firstly, tho French.iii a sires
of sanguinary conflicts, lasting tho whole
nights of the 22d ami 23d of May, took and
retained au important position of defence, the
Place (TAnnee, before Sebastopol. No fewer
than 8000 men were killed or wounded,
mostly by the bayonet.
secondly, the Allies made a rap'd advance,
mid siozed and retained the Russian lines in
the Tchernaya, without much loss, the Rus
sians retreating to tho hills.
Thirdly, tho secret expedition of the Allies
has obtained easy possession of Kertsch, and
thus commands the sea of Azoff, in which are
now fourteen allied stoaincis. The Russians,
on the approach of the Allies, blew up the
forts and burned four steamers, thirty trans
ports, and half a million sacks of breadstuff.
France and F.ugland have declined to hold
any further Conference at Vienna.
Five Russian vessels, laden with corn, ran
into Kertsch, not knowing the place was ta
ken, and were captured.
The number of guns that were found by
the Allies exceeded 100.
Tho garrison of Sebastopol drew most of
their supplies from Kertsch, and its capture
mutt exercise a speedy influence upon t'.o
siege.
The Russian army in tho field, it is ruid,
has becu ordered to' retire before the allies,
and not risk a battle.
The Allies are still holding their position
before Subastopol.
Ilolloways Ointment and Pith, a certain
Cure for Had Ureasts, Caked Rreasts, and
Bore Nipples. Tho wife of Mr. II. 15., of the
Broadway, New York, suffered several months
afLoj liio K of her last child with a bad
breast, several holes having formed on the
came, her nipples were nearly gone, and it
was thought at one time that "the breast must
be taken off. Mr. 11. H. put her under a
course of Holloway'a Ointment and Pills,
after having tried every other means without
success j the Ointment" was well rubbed into
the parts affected, and tho Pills were taken
regularly. In three weeks the anxious hus
band was amply compensated, for his wife
was quite well..
Toe Galk on Sunday Nioiit did great
damage among the roofs and awnings and
hundreds of the latter were torn to tatters.
Bpeaking of tatters, the best garment must
wear out beyond all repairing. All gentle
men who may he-vo clothing in this predica
ment are advised to go and get a new suit at
llockhill & Wilson's elegant Store, 111,
Chestnut stroet, Philadelphia. They will
find it the cheapest course in the end.
