U ,1 sufficiently disinterested as to&e_ is-
0 f the contest, to study profitably the
lins of wisdom taught by its terrific
Qur senses are not stunned by
•The roll of the stirring drum,” nor our
inflamed by-the murderous roar of
tf'X* tmd musketry. The naked
rro] s of war glare on us as wo gaze on
J' e Generate struggles of the allied forces
the conquest of a Russian fortress
jMperately defended. Stripped of its
meretricious adjuncts, what is war .
It is wasteful. The one hundred mil-
ion « 0 f dollars with which klqgland and
C nt , (! addled their overburdened subjects
t the outset, is understood to be expand-
j jjiJ enormous sums must soon be added
to the war-chest. Turkey has almost ex-
i'.mi-tod her treasure and credit at the be-
of the conflict. Russia must have
liraiva jiropotiouably upon W resources—
!i, that the mere opening of war has cost
th- bollitrorcu.t nations a sum equal, per-
jiair - ' t n the products of the collective in-
thi-iry of all their peaceable subjects for
tho year. And this, with Irqfc u -tithe of
the forces which these nations have been
wllt to firing into the fiel&apd with which
are preparing to renew the contest.
Hut this is the lowest view.
Vt'av is mo7, as well as waste!ul. If
takes hundreds of thousands of men from
their homes; exposes them to disease from
unviugied climates, unsheltered camps,
and unwholesome food; and subjects them
to butchery for a cause they do not under-
wand.by an unkown foe. The details of the
battle of the Alma aud of the siege of Sa-
iwstopol—the heaps of slaughtered men
—the neirlget of wounded soldiers—the,
wasting away of 50,000 of the besieging
army by disease aud death the, stench
if uifiurijsl bodies in the stiects of tin
b-leatrured city—the burning of the Rus-
■i;ui hospital with 2,000 of the sick and

We have just seen af copy, which well
sustains the reputation of Col. B. in that
line. It contains all the new counties
made by our last legislature, and will con
stitute a valuable edition for years to come
unless the people send men to Milledge-
vjlle, of the same stamp, to nn.kc more new
counties. We were struck with the un
iqueness of some of the changes. Dough
erty county is large enough to boast of two
militia districts, and Fulton looks like it
might take in the whole of the city of At
lanta ; while Charlton runs down the Oke-
fenoke swamp full forty miles, and rejoiecs
in a breadth of about ten. Curious coun
ty that: wonder if those who mn|e it
knew how it would look on the map ? We
solicit for Col. Bonner a large patronage
in big native county.
Viviparous Fish.
Dr. Bcnnet Dowler has tgfc.mfrly Djsco.y-
ered in the vicinity of New Orleans a
small osseous fish, which proves to be vivi
parous, having no less than twenty-two
well formed young in its body at the time
of examination. Dy. D ; , ho®;ever, yields
the priority of description pf viviparous
fish to Dr. Gibbous, who found them in
California.

There were but three showers of yain

“The case of Lord, Forth has excited,
general indignation. It is is follows-3—
He is a very young officer, a minor and
as it seems not much of a hero. In the

V. nr is floolish. All parties arc usually
fibers in the game of fisticuffs. France
and England were engaged in actual war
vah each otJfier 266 years out of the pear
,iifl years between J141 atpd 1815, and in
that period, probably, there were as many
men slaughtered' as the total present popu-

81;all wo not discourage the war spirit
among >>ur children and youth, as detri
mental to their moral character and relig

not exert an influence with men in office
to restrain them from plans which may
plunge us into collision with other powers?
Shall we not plead with the Universal
Ruler that he will stay the hand of violence

A <>-eiitleman of this county took several
specimens of soil to a distinguished chem
ist of New Haven, and asked him what he
would charge for a clear analysis. “ Ten
dollars for .each result,” was the prompt
reply. He left one specimen of soil sup
posing that he would have io pay only ten
dollars for it, b4 the bill followed him
home to the tune of $130. The parties
misunderstood each other; one claiming a
result to he an analysis of a whole soil, pud
the other each salt that might be traced
out jn an anlysis. There being thirteen
salts in the soil there was of course in the
eye of the chemist thirteen pesglts and
$130 in it.

was accustomed to wear a <rold and silver
seal with his watch, on which the letters

seal, and about seventeen years ago, bis
nephew, to whoiu the gold seal had been
<riven after bis death, dropped it while nd-

were recently ploughed up, about the same
time, aud tkey will agiap be united.
