Traktir-bridof, Aup. 1C, 10 P. M. For
some days rumors of a premeditated attack
on the part of the Russians had aroused our
attention, and they earned out their project
this morning at daybreak, against our lines
on the Tchernaya ; but despite tho concen
tration of imposing masses collected during
the night, the enemy was repulsed with great
vigor by the divisions of (Jens. Herbillon,
Camou, Faucheanx and Morris. Tho Sar
dinians, placed on our right, fought valiantly.
The principal effort of the enemv wns di
rected against Traktir-bridge. tho Kris,
sians left a great number of dead there, mid
yee made a great many prisoners. They were
in full retreat on Makenzie's Farm when our
reserves were coining up, and those of our
brave' allies, especially the English cavalry.
The enemy has received a severe check.
Onr losses, which are much less than those
of the Russians, have not yet been accurately
ascertained.
Crimfa, the 18th. 10 P. M. Prince Gort
schakoff has demanded an armistice to re
move the killed and wounded of the enemy
from the field, which I have granted. The
Russian losses surpass my first calculation.
Lieutenant General Read has been killed.
Our engineering works, protected by the
admiruhlv sustained fire from our artillery,
are not disturbed by the Russian batteries,
and have considerably advanced.
The General Read whose death is re
ported was a very distinguished officer, and a
year ago was discharging the duties of Im
perial Lieutenant of the Caucasian provinces,
in the absence of Prince AVoronzoff, and be
fore General Muravieff had been nominated
his successor. The father of Gen. Read,
born at Montrose, was a civil engineer, who
entered the service of the Emperor Alexan
der in early life, and settled in Russia, whore
his-son, afterwards General Rend w.is born
Crimea, Altruist 17, 11 30, P M. In his
attack yesterday, tho enemy brought into
the field five divisions, 6000 cavnlrv, and
twenty butteries, with the firm intention of
occupying the Tedtouchine hills.
The Russians having crossed tho river at
dinerent points, had accumulated sapper
tools, beams, planks, facines and ladders,
which they abandoned in their flight. As
usual, our artillery frnight valiantly, and with
success. An English battery of position, on
the Piodmontese Hill, pave us most powerful
assistance. The Russians left at least 2.100
dead on the field : 33 of their officers and
1620 men are in our ambulances. Three
Russian Generals are said to havo been kil
led. o moreover made 400 prisoners.
Our loss is 2P0 killed and 610 wounded. The

August lflth. Part of onr troops crossed
the Tchernaya uud attacked the heights of
Tedionchine, Having encountered very con
siderable forces, we. after an obstinate fight,
thought proper to retire to the ripht bunk,
where we awaited the advance of the enemy
for four hours. As they did not move for
wad. we returned to our position. The loss
is heavy on both sides.
THE RUSSIAN LOSS.
The following telegraphic despatch from
General Pelissier has been received by the
French Minister of AVar:
"Ckimka. Aug 19. I P. M. It was no
cessary to continue the armistice demanded
yesterday by the Russians, from 5 A. M. to
2 P. M. to-duy. for them to carry away their
dead. The nearest enumeration we could
make gives the following: results : Russians
buried by the French, 2129 j by the Russians,
1112 i total. 3329."
To this despatch the Monittur oppends the
following announcement : "Theartillery has
again opened fiie against Sevastopol. An
error in a despatch led to the belief that
another bombardment had commenced. This
is not the case. This fire is that ofour guns,
which, as has been seen, has powerfully
contributed, sinco its re-commenccmcnt, to
facilitate the works of the approaches directed
against the Malukofl works."
The Paris correspondent of tho Times
ays : "A private despatch from the French
camp gives a few additional particulars about
the affair of the Tchernaya, and explains, to
certain extent, the disproportion, remarked
by every one, between the loss of the Allies
and that of the enemy. It appears that the
garrison of Sebastopol, as well as tho army,
are almost without provisions ; they Lave
scarcely a morsel of bread to eat, ond they
are in such a plight that, according to this
despatch, one would say the Russian com-raander-in-chief
really desired to get rid of a
considerable nnmber of bis men. from the
sheer impossibility of feeding them. The
enemy bad to pass through a deep ravine to
approach our lines, and while they did ao they
were actually mowed down by hundreds, by
our guns and masketry. The Russian were
liot id a position to roiurn our fire with ef
fect, and did little more than fire in tho air.
They seem to have been sout forth as des
perate men, to do the best they could. It
was m the advance and retreat that thev
juflercd most, and, but for the signal slaugll
tr or the enemy, the affair could scarcely be
called a battle. "If we do not take Sebasto
3? Tn our camin." dda the despatch,
wa .hull do so, before long, by rmine."

road, brought into this place, from the mines,
a train of one hundred and forty cars, each
car containing four and a half tons of coal.
Truins of one hundred cars are frequently
carried over the road. The road is an excel
lent order, and is one of the best built and
most substantial improvements of the kind in
the country.
f3T The codfish faction received a batch of
four hundred Uermnn papers from Pottsville
on Wednesday night. The paper professes
to be published by Mr. John Youngman of
this place, who never saw it until it arrived
here. 'We understood thut it was called the
''Dew ait Democrat," but this, we believe, is a
mistake, the titlo is Deuttcher Demokrat.
Tho first would be tbe most appropriate
name of the two, but a' more proper name
would be "The Codfish Democrat." It is a
bastard edition of one of the Pottsville German
papers, for which they are to pay $28 per
week until the electiou.
TUB INQllalTIO IN iCHDVLUILL
COUNTY.
Our readers are no doubt aware, that they
have also a swearing committee or Itiquisi- j
tion in Schuylkill connty, of which, it is
supposed, the one in this county is a branch.
The Schuylkill Inquisitors have had a good
deal of trouble. They have already changed
the oath to be taken by the candidates, sev
eral times. But still it will not suit in all
cases, and some of them who could not swal
low the wholo pig, tail and all, were obliged
to decline. This was the case of Mr. Frick,
the candidate for Assembly and it was
thought that Mr. Dickson would also have
to travel.
In April lust a resolution was adopted that
no man would be recognized as a true and
faithful democrat unless he would swear that
"he was a democrat, & had not, since October
1, 1851, been attached to any secret political
society." At the next county meeting in
June, it was so modified a to date back only
to the 20th of May last, so as to let in some
of the .Viz Wisseri.
This matter was managed by our old friend
Col. Slroub, a shrewd politician, who if he
had given his now "Natural Know Nothing"
allies of this connty, soma lessons, they would
never have been guilty of the stupid blunder
of swearing men, not ouly what they had
not a -iu; but what they did not Intend to do,

OPERATION OF THE MO.t ISITIOI.
The Inquisition or swearing party finding
that CoO votes is rather a small capital to
commence business on in this county, are en
deavoring to enlist tho whigs to aid them in
their struggle for office against the people.
A correspondent of one of the upper town
ships writes to ns to. thnt effect. What a
beautiful commentary on the principles of the
faction in this place, who have usurped the
name of democracy, and who now offer to
mnke terms with those whom they so lately
vilified nnd traduced. It is only three years
ago, at the election in this place,, when some
of the principal men of this faction. wer
hawking their own votes through the streets
of Runbnry, offering to vote for the whig can
didates, provided they could, in return, get a
vote for one of their candidates for a connty
office. And it wns only at the last October
election that "all of them," as they acknowl
edge in their own organ the Gazette, voted for
nn open nnd avowed Know Nothing candi
date for the Senate, against Jesse C. Horton
tho regularly nominated democratic candi
date. And yet now they affect to have such
a holy horror of the Know Nothings, that
they rcquiro their candidates to swear that
they do not, nnd never will belong to the
order they themselves supported lust Octo
ber, while it is evident from their previous
conduct, that they would again vote the
Know Nothing ticket, if anything could be
mado by the trade. Such are the principles
of the faction in this place, who impudently
call themselves the democratic party. One
would have supposed" that such a rebuke as
they received at the lute primary election,
when some of the districts refused to vote at
all, and other largo districts only polled from
three to ten votes, that they would have dis
covered that the people did not recognize
them, either as leaders or as democrats.
It will be remembered that one of the res
olutions of the swearing committee's Inquisi
tion, was, that no more votes should be re
ceived at the primary election, than had been
polled at tho General election, last Octo
ber, for Governor Bigler. The Governor's
vote was 2180. The highest vote for the
Inquisition candidates was 547.
It was certainly a wise precautionary mea
sure on the part of the Inquisitors, not to let
them come too fast. It is probably nut say
ing too much, thnt but for this prudent re
solve, the vote for the candidates of the In
quisition might have reached six hundred, or
about one fourth the voto polled for Gov
nigier. l lie committee it seems were re-
solved to keep down the democratic vote to
its smallest number. Justice requires us to
say, and we are willing to put it on record,
that the committee have done every thing in
their power to accomplish that object. How
well they have succeeded in redueingthe dem
ocratic vote of this county, the result above
mentioned, clearly shows. There never was
a standing committee better organized for
the purpose of reducing or curtailing votes,
than tho present. Givo them one chance
more in curtailing the vote, and we will ven
ture to say that tho result will more than
equal the famous contest between the kil
kenny cats, and scarcely a tail will bo left.

Theo. r. Wright, Esq., of the Gazette, has
retired from that paper, and has been suc
ceeded by his late partner, J. W. Clarke.
The Gazette thinks there is a Curson league
in mat piuce. ceveral persons were prose
cuted for belling liquor to minors. The suits
were settled by the payment of hush money
to the informer. The thing has got into the
newspapers, and the attorney ou both sides
implicate each other.
Lewisiu ro. The war in the newspapers
for the county seat, continues. The lust
charge against the Lewisburgers by the
Mifllinburg Stur, is that last summer one of
the drug shops iu Lewisbtirg mude ono thou
sand quinine pills every morning before
breakfast, for the ague patients oft hat piuce.
The Lewisbtirg Democrat says they were
made for Miftliuburg patients.
The Chronicle rebukes the Rev. editor of
the Star for the publication of Lotteryadver
tisemeuts. We are surprised to see these
advertisements in a number ofour exchanges.
The act of 1653 subjects these editors to a
fine of not less tha.n $100, and six months'
imprisonment upon conviction for this offence.

Pottsville. The Tottsville Uuzctte of
Saturday last, has the fo'lowing paragraph:
Carvixoof Coal. We learn that Mr. P.
F. Mc Andrews, of Ashland, has obtained
letters patent for manufactory from Anthra
cite coal. It will be remembered that Mr.
Mc Andrews sent to this place a sculptured
hunt, that produced quite a sensation.
We should think the editor bad been on a
burst himself when he indited the above para
graph. The idea of obtaining a patent for a
"manufactory" is also novel if not patent.
We have seen tho bust alluded to. It is the
Lead of a genuine African, made by a miner
at Ashland, from pure anthracite coal, tha
wooly head and all being admirably well rep
resented. We saw "Sam," as the statuo was. called,
at llarrisburg, last winter, iu oue of the
Hotels. He had on apulmleaf hat, on w hich
was a label with the word "Sam" in large
letters. It is well known that an Irishman
ii rather thy of the "colored bredder'u" aud
having aeeu "Sam" represented as ono of that
uufortuuate race, may accouut for their
oppotitiou and antipathy to the Know Noth
ings iu Schuylkill couuty. Tbe luquisitors
in this couuty talk of hiring Sam. They will
want something to 'produce a sensation,' and
nothing less than a bunt will do thorn.

were not uncomfortable, the past week the

This is emphatically tho sickly season of the
year when persons should be most cautions
about their health. A nomber of tha towns
on the river as well as off of it, have suffered
considerably with fevers and dysenteries.
Although wo have had and still have n few
cases of intermitent fever in this place, onr
town has been comparatively healthy this
season.
6-y The ravages of the yellow fever at Nor
folk and Portsmouth exceeds any thing ever
witnessed or heard of in this country. As
bad as it was in New Orleans in 1853, the
mortality was not eqnal to that of Norfolk
But it appears by tho account in another
column, that in addition to this calamity the
small pox hns also appeared in those ill-fated
Cities, to aid in the fearful work of death.
Large sums of money have been raised to aid
the sufferers. Baltimore alone has already
contributed over $22,000.
Baltimore. Sept. 9. The boat arrived
from Norfolk brings awful tidings from Nor
folk nnd Portsmouth. The small pox has
been added to the horrors thut envelope
these two cities. No abatement hns occurred
in the virulence oi the fever. Ten cases of
small pox occurred at Norfolk on Stnturday.
