• The .Eastern Questionb
The latest news from Europe is to the 14th
of February. Signs of war still loomed
high and portentously above the horizon.—
The French and English dOvernments are
making vast military preparations, and very
soon, it is believed, the terrible cry "havoc!"
wilt be heard from one end of the continent
to the other. The Czar, too, is preparing,
on a largo scale, for the coming struggle, as
he has been doing, for the last ten months,'
and while he was amusing his antagonists
presumptive, .with conferences, notes, proto
cols, and protestations of his moderation and
peace-preferring sentiments. He is as cur
ning as a fox, while he is as rugged as a
bear, as those will find out who will try a
hug with him. On the other hand, the lion
of England and,the eagle of France are lof
ty=minded and magnanimous animals, who
go a good deal for chivalry and for everybo
vly's rights—so they say—and will not,
therefore, suffer the hyperborean giant to
devour his weak and defenseless southern
'neighbor, and in this they are right, but
'have been somewhat slow.
However, notwithstandjn
is not thaLwar isalto now
'the thing probable, peace gether
impossible. The retirement of the Russian
Ministers from London and Paris, has rath
er a squally aspect per 4 sc; but, on the other
hand,sthey went away- in a very good hu-
Mor, and their passports were sent them in
'the same way. There was much apres
sion of regret at the state of things, and fer
vent prayers for the restoration of harmony
between the mighty Powers about to throttle
each other ; and in all this, though diplo
matists were the parties, there is probably
some sincerity. It all depends upon the
Emperor . Nicholas, and he had not yet bror
ken off entirely. He rejected all the tens
s
rit
offered, but his envoy, Count Orlo ff, still iB.l
mained at Vienna ; for two.purposes, it may
be—one to induce Austria to break off from
and betray the alliance, or else, if that can-'
not be done, then to set on foot fresh nego
tiations on a new basis. or to resume diem
upon the old.. It may be, too, that he has
never intended to go to war, if he discover
ed that England and France were serious in
their promised assistance toTurkeywhich,
from their dilatory and irresolute proceed
ings; he might well doubt—unless he could
secure Austria and Prussia for allies, or the
first at all events, and neutralize the second.
Now France arid England have taken a
stand ; and, powerful as he is, the,Czar will
hardly feel strong enough to cope with them
and TOrkey and Austria, if not Prussia also,
co say nothing about Belgium and Sardinia.
Belgium must go against him, or submit to
an instantaneous occupation by the French
armies, and Sardinia will go against him
from choice. lo the mean time, as yet, it
does not appear that he.has any ally who
will dare to pull a trigger in his behalf.—
Persia, that was set down for him all along,
is now under English influence, it is said,
and he a ill g; it is supposed, no help from
that (punter, while the Circassians. furnish
ed as they a ill he abundantly With muni
tions of war, by France and England, will,
under their able chief, Schanayl, (who has
so long resisted Russia,) give him a good
deal of annoyance. Ile has no prospect,
therefore, that we can see, of carrying out
his designs, unless he can break up the co
alition, and. if that can be done, he will do it.
Uric great advantage that the Czar will
have in the contest is unity of purpose, of
counsel, and of action, and he well under
stands this advantage, and his antanonists
understand it also. It will be worth to him
an army of two hundred thousand men ; for
the four Powers and 'Flukey, and two or
three more allies perhaps, to carry on war
jointly with * harmony and vigor, without
jealousies, without misunderstandings or
clashing counsels, is next to impossible.—
Such a thing has never been done, and net , .
.er will be.. The allies got along pretty well
for a short time in 1813—'14 against Napol
eon,- but there was a good deal of jarring
and jealousy ; and when he left Elba they
.were about to break up in a row, on account
hitfly of the very thing that causes the
present difficulty—the grasping ambition of
Russia. ry
The Governments of Sweden and Den
mark have declared their intention of re•
maining neutral, should the expected war
take place. But in doing this they are
reckoning without their host. No neutrals
will be recognized in Europe whose friend.
ship or whose hostility will be of much ac
count, and those two Puwers are both strong
enough to aid a friend or to injure an ene
my. The Emperor of the French has
en,the King of the Belgians his orders ;
which are, that lie is to watch Prussia, if she
shows any signs of hostility ; and England
will look after the Swedish and Danish fleets,
and, to prevent them front fulling into. the
hands of the Czar, will take possession of
them vt.ry probably, as site did of the Dan
ish fleet in 1507. The rights of neutrals are
rarely respected in tin% of war, unless they
are: able to challenge respect at the cannon's
mouth. This has been witnessed over and
over. Even the much-talked-about "armed
neutrality," if one should he got up, to be
respected, must lie as strong as the belliger
ents. The United States may keep clear
of this war, perhaps, but it will. be i because
.of our distance from the theatre of ii, and
because being pretty powerful, and having
extensive commercial relations with all the
parties, they may,for once, respect our neu
trality and our rights, which they did not do
during the last general war in Europe.
A report from the East says that the Sul
tan has changed his Ministers, and that the
new appointments are in favor of making
peace with Russia. If this is so, it shows
that the Sultan's-resources are exhausted,
or that the despairs of final and effectual aid
from his allies.
The London Times,,of the oth of Febru
ary, says, that '"the report of a paCific turn
in the disposition of the Czar is probably
only to be regarded as a fresh device to in
duce the allied Powers to relax their prepa
rations." Quite likely.

Artesian Wells.
The following remarks by the New Or
leans Bee are made in connexion with an ac
count of the progress made in boring for we-
ter at a spot in that city
The experiment of digging an Artes ian
well, now in progress in Canal street, is
watched with a good deal of interest, as well
by the public at large, who are attracted by
novelty, as by the scientific observers
who eagerly embrace this opportunity of
prosecution geolical investigations. We
presume that most of our readers are aware
that Artesian wells are so termed from the
fact that the particular process of excavation
applied to them was first used in the pro
vince of Artcis, prance. They are peculiar
first from their unusually immense depth,
and next from the mode in which they are
dug. The principal • involved in the con
struction of Artesian wells is the tendency
of water to find its level—though lying bun
i dreds arid it may be, thousands of feet be
neath the surface of the earth. Spring wa
ter can only be discovered beneath what is
styled an impervious rock, for were it other
wise, the fluid would force its way to the
surface, or at all events to the level of its
source. It follows, therefore, that where
ever certain strata. designated by geologists!
as impervious are presumed from observa
tion and induction to lie at attainable depths
these Artesian wells may be excavated with
strong probability of success.
The process is extremely curious. The
width of the bore varies according . to cifcum
stances. The well now digging in Canal
street, has a diameter of fourteen inches,
which is considered ample. A circular hole
is first made in the ground, and as snort as it
I is deep enough. to work, a steel plate, serra
ted, is attached to a pole, and let down into
i.the cavity by a wheel and pally - , and then'
turned so as to detach the soil and throw it 1
on the upper face of the plate. if water be
encountered, it is removed by a tube sent''
clown in the same way, filled and then driv.vn '
up. This operation is iepeated 'as long as
it is practicable, alter which the tubing fol
lows. The tubes are large cast iron hollow
cylinders, each ten feet long, so adjusted as
to screw with great nicety together, and of
which the first has the lower end sharpen
ed. The tube being raised by proper ma
; chieery arid suspended over the surface of
1 the excavation, is gradually lowered till the
upper end is but a few inches above the
mouth of the %veil. Upon this the next is
screwed, whereupon the tubes sink by their
I own weight and the force of the downward
pressure. This process is repeated as long
I as the nature of the formation will allow.—
Sometimes.thirty or forty feet of tubing will I
be sunk in a day, and sometimes very little
f progress is made. The well in Canal street i
l has thus far ofkred few impediments, the j
soil at a considerable depth being soft and I
penetrable. On Tuesday, thirty-three feet I
of tubing was applied, and a total depth of 1
over forty feet had been attained. . I
Whether water will be obtained or not, is',
highly problematical. Several of our sc;en
tific non sake their heads and predict ot
ter failure. ()titers think the water lies too
deep to justify the labor, and exnene ; and
others again, are of the opinion that if a vein
of water is struck, the element will be salt,
and therefore useless. These are but spec
ulations, and must be taken as such.
Arrival of Nebraska Indians.
It will be recollected that. during the lust
summer, the eutiunissioner of Indian A (Li rs,
Nlajor Nlanypenny, visited the Indian tribes
west of M i!•souri and lowa, fur the purpose
of procuring their assent to the settlement of
our citizens on the lands reserved by them
and of extinguishing their title in whole or
in part to their soil. The commissioner held
a council with every tribe which he visited.
With but few exceptions, they refused to
sell. Treaties were, therefore, deferred un
til the present season, With the hope that
the 'lndians might, in the Mean time, see
that their perinanent interests required an
).entire transfer of all their lands, and their
I removal to a new home.
The condition of the Indians west of Mis
souri t % ild lowa is not as prosperous as is
desired. In several of the tribes arc to be
I found some educated and intelligent men,
and others who are able by this cultivation
of the soil to subsist themselves. Among
them, too, are some professors of religion.--
Butt the mass of the Indian tribes are indolent,
and intemperate, and many of them are de
graded and debased, al we learn front the
report of the commissioner.
On Monday night Major Gatewood arri
ved.in this city, bringing with him sixteen
chiefs of the tribes, respectively, of the Oina-
has, the Mk4sourias, and the thtoes. These
red men are quartered at Jemmy Maher s,
the home of 16dians from every directimi
visiting Washington, who never fail to bout-
or him with the title of "father," on account
of the kind treatment which they never fail
to receive at his establishment, while, of
course, they express a due measure of grati
tude to his excellent wife for her hospitable
and "motherly" care of them.
From what we can learn the delegation
want to hear what their "great lather" has
to say to them about parting with their lands
iti. the Nebraska country, and to arrive to the
best possible bargain in the way of treaty.
They are dressed in the usual savage
style, including heavy earbobs, head-dresses,
; necklaces of the clams of 'the grizzly bear,
land such like adornments. `!'heir faces are
I painted red—a color to which they are es-1
pecially partial- Some of these Indians
wear blue blankets, others white, and sever
al of them red. They attracted much at
tention yesterday on the promenade, and
caused somewhat of an excitement on their
visit to the gallery of the House of Repre,
sentatives, while that honorable body was
engaged in electing a public printer.
We presume that, in the'course of a few
days, they will have a talk with the Com
missioner of Indian Affairs in relation to
the business which has induced their visit
to Washington.-IVash(ngion Sentinel.

MOUNT VERNON. — T e venerable C4Cofge
P. Ciirtis, the grand son of Mrs. Wash
ington, in a chapter of his Recollections, as
published in the National Intelligence on the
22d inst., remarks. is certain that Wash
ington never gave even a hint of his views
or wishes in regard to the disposition of his
remains. Ile no doubt believed that his
ashes would be claimed as national proper
ty, and be entombed with national honors ;
hence his silence on a subject that has agi
tated the American public for more than
half a century." Mr. Curtis says : "It is
high time the subject of the remains, and
the remains themselves, were at rest. 'Pre
suming that government .should purchase
Mount Vernon, and determine that the ash
es of the Chief should there find lasting re
pose, we would respectfully suggest that a
sepulchre bo erected on tho site of the an
cient family vault, a magnificent location
having an eNtensive view of the surround
ing country and of the noble Potomac that
washes its base the massive structure, to be
funned of white American marble in blocks
each of a ton weight, a dome of copper, sur
mounted by an eagle in bronze, a bronze
door, and for inscription two-words only that
will speak volumes to all time—Paler Prt•
trice. The key of the receptacle to be al
ways in custody of the President of the Uni
ted States for the time being. This done
—and if done 'tis well it were done quick
ly—' the tomb of Washington would cease
to be a reproach among nations. The pil
grim from distant lauds, as he journeys
through a mighty empire with his heart
filled with veneration of the faine and mem
ory of America's illustrious son, when he
arrives at the national sepulchre, that casts its
broad shadow over the Potomac's wave, kill
become awed iiy this solemn grandeur of the
spot."

Resolved, February 17,1854, by the board
of Directors pf the Lehigh county Poor
House, that notice shall be given to all jus=
tices of the Pence of LehighCounty,—that
the hospital and house of employment, are
so crowded with foreign paupers at present,
that it is . entirely out of our power to main
tain the poor of said county properly, and to
neglect old and helpless citizens of the d.ohn
ty, by removing them out of the hospital and
in their place give room to tt.SPi of loafing
and self-negligent foreign' paupers, arriving
daily with orders of relief,. the would prove
regardless of the duty imposed Urldn tlB. We
would therefore request each and etfety Jus
tice of the Peace of said county, notin issue
orders of relief tostrag ling or loafing paupers,
except in the utmost cuss or necessity: .
