of the Allies; and if the enemy be really resolved, as some of the prisoners declare, to contest every house, every inch of ground ia Sebastopol, and, in despair, to blow it up by means of mines, then tbe carnsge will be terrible. Say, however, that tbe Allies lose one thousand only in killed and wounded daring the taking of those batteries and of tbe town and the destruction of the fleet, that will make 9,000. Theu will begin, it may be presumed, the regular bombardment of the northern side. We know not what are the strength and number of the new forta and batteries on that side, but we do know well enough that tbe Telegraph batteries and numerous strand ones; that Fort Constantino (with ita 104 gun) and outworks that another fort opposite Fort Alexander; that two batteries opposite Fort Paul; and that the immense citadel, with iU four bastions and three advanced works, bsre to be bombarded, stormed, aad carried. If those defences give any thing like the trouble and occasion any thing like the loss experienced on the southern side, we may calculate that tbe Allies will have to sacrifice at least 5,000 more men.

That would make 14,000. "It must be expected, too, that the Russians will, so long as they can, maintain, as they are now maintaining, a large army in the field; will endeavor to keep, at least for a time, a position in the Crimea, even after the loss of Sebastopol. The Allies can scarcely hope to become sole masters of this peninsular without engaging in a pitched battle say in the direction of Perckop. To act down the loss of the former at 8,000 killed wounded and missing, would certainly not be an United States.

A full history of this pestilence in Virginia will that now, this treaty having expired, Denmark has no right to continue to levy it. Denmark, however, maintains that ber right is universal; that the treaty concluded with the United States, like those concluded with other I'6wars, only regulated the exercise of this right; that the Danish Government has enjoyed it from time immemorial, and that, even were the origin of the right in question open to doubt, it now exists by prescription. This line of argument has some weight; and it would bare still more had not Denmark for so long a time taken undue advantage of her portion by exorbitantly increasing the sound dues, and arbitrarily modifying them, often even so as The season has come when fevers prevail. A fever taken in the fall, moreover, is more apt to be stubborn than one caught in the spring. Under crying ooy, narrates tae iouowing incident: i 11 Young America.

Not unfrequently it is present when least suspected.

He broke forth as follows: "Sir," said Govenor Steele, "I have known the whole career of General Pierce from the day he first took his scat in- this hall. I have admired his exploits in Congress and in Mexico. But I have an incident in my mind, which I will relate, which, in my humble judgment, exhibits the character of the man in a more illustrious light than all his efforts in the forum or the field: "It was something more than twenty years ago, (General Pierco was then somewhat younger than he is now) he was travelling through one were married: rver was a little editor so bsppy. the strong, we are bound to confess that, in our It was my love, 'dearest, ringing in opinion, the course taken by the Cabinet at old Hard "Here the Shark interrupted bim by ash; 'Is not that your case?

Quarantine therefore, against the person hailing from infected places, whether sick or well, is a barbarous as well as useless imposition, fur which ignorance is the bais, and any pecuniary forfeiture or fee extorted from such persons, by ofEcu! or otherwise, merits the penalties against obtaining money under false pretences.

Such legal restrictions against tsrU coming from infected places, on which yellow fever ha appeared, or from the holds of which when opened, the poison-oca malaria may contaminate, oar atmosphere, are very proper, for all such vessels should be subjected to quarantine; and this a'oue afford tte coly national pretest for the continuance of the system. No lea to be deplored have been tbe incidental effort, made through the public press, to create the impression that the malady so fatal in Norfolk, Jtc, is not the yellow fever, but some other and more fatal pestilence, as the African fever, the plague, 4c. From reliable source and data we take it upon ourselve to say that the epidemic in Virginia ia neither more nor leas than yellow Jterr, and differs in no respect ia its phases, or mortality, from that fever a it prevails in New Orleans and other cities at the Suuth, during tbe Summer months. The tardy removal of the inhabitants from the infected district msy have augumented its mortality, especially among the physician and public ofSccra whose duties kept them nightly exposed tothe poison; but we fear from the lone of certain publication we bave seen, that tbe want of success iu treating the malady may bave partly arisen epidemic, thus giving warning of its approach. But this opinion is not universally held.

A cartful collection and analysis of facte, derived from tbe late experience of New Orleans, Savannah, and Norfolk, might, however, definitely determine thi question. Exhauation of tbe physical powers, either by excess, fatigue, or protracted grief, renders the individual peculiarly liable to fall fever. Tbe surest way to avoid them is to live moderately, eating nourishing food, taking daily exercise, and 1 1 ti a. m. wnicng rKUU uegau io leei rassengera going North or South, or coming to ft.
