Armistice— A Singular Scene. A correspondent of the London Times wri tin* f r om before Sebastopol says: Early on Saturday morning a flag of truce was sent in by the allies with a proposition to the Russians for an armistice to bury the dead, wliich were lying in numbers—five or six Russians to every Frenchman and English man—in front of the Round Tower atid Mamelon, and after sonic delay, an answer jn the affiinative was returned, and it was arranged that two hours should be granted for collecting and carrying away the dead pn both sides. The day Was beautifully bright and warm. White flags waved gent ly in the faint sprilig breeze above t lie em bnuures of our batteries, and from the Round Tower and Mame'on Not a soul had been visible in front of the lines an instant before the emblems of peace were run up to theflagstaff*, and, a sullen gun from Mamo lon. and a burst of smoke from Gordon's bat tevies had but a short time previously her alded the armistice. The iustaut the flags Were lmist-ed friend and foe swarmed out of the embr isiires. The Riflemen of the allies and of the enemy rose from their lairs in the rifle pits, an l sauntered towards each other to behold their grim handiwork. The Whole of the space between the Russian lines and our own was filled with groups of un armed soldiery. Passing down by the Mid dle I*.eket Ravine, which is now occupied by the French, and which runs down in front of the Light Division camp, I came out upon the advanced French trench, within a few hundred yards of the Mamelon. The sight was strange, beyond description. French, English and Russian officers were walking about, saluting each other courto cuslv as they passed, ami occasionally en tering into conversation, and a constant in terchange of little civilities, such as offering find receiving cigar lights, was going on in I r.rch little group. Some of the Russian off;- j cars were evidently men of high rank and ‘ breeding. Their polished manners contras- j ted remarkably with their plain and rather 1 coarse detfiitig. They wore, with few ex- . captions, the invariable b ug gray coat over 1 tiieir uniforms The French officers were! all eti drantlv ietfite. and offered a striking contrast so “tatty of our own officers, who j were dressed ala Bnlaklnvo, and wore on- : couth head-dresses, catskin coats, and non- i descript p ileF. ‘.s. Many of the Russians looked reniarktdv like English gentlemen it; : • style’ of face and bearing One tall, fine . looking old m u, with a long gray beard j ttn l strangely shaped cap, was pointed out ■ to us as Iletutan ot the Cossacks in the Cri- j iaea. but it tod ml appear ns if there were • many men of very high military rauk pres- ; c-nt. The 11 us.-tans were rather grave and i but they seemed to I*a'ernize with j iiie French better loan with ourselves and j the men certainly got on bettor with our al- j lies than with the few privates of our own ] regiments who were down towards the front j But while alt this civility was going on we i were walking among ti e dead, over blood ! stained ground, revered with evidences of re- 1 cent tight. Broken muskets, eartouch box i ?s, fragments of c ‘.thing, s't.ips and belts, pieces of shell. little pools of clotted blood, j ■shot—round and grape—shuttered gabions j ■and sail Rings, wtc visible around us on i v ’v side, at. 1 lb rough the midst of the J “crowd stalked a solemn procession of soldiers, j Vanug dejiart I comrades to ibif.r Rug I homes 1 counted 77 Sitters borne past me in sis i teen minutes—each filled with a dead cne- ■ my. The con tot ti< ns of the slain were hor I rib’e, and roc HLd the memories of the field i ii Alma aid inkenwun. Lottie few French j were lying f r in advaiict towards h • .Manu b n and Round Tower among tire g> b tofts be- , longing to the Frtiieh advanced ;rcii'cbes. which tre Russians had broken down. Tirty i had evident ! y t.een sain in pursuit of tlie j funny. The Russian’’ appeared to treat j thoii dead with great respect. The soldiers ; 1 saw were white-faced and seemed ill-fed, though many had powerful frames, square 1 shoulders, and yroad chests. All their dead who fell within or near our lines were strip j P-'l of toots 1 “toekings. The cleanliness i their fact, and in moat cases, of their coarse | fitiaa shirts tvas remarkable Several sail ors of the . equipages’ of the tleet- of Sebasto pol were kilied in the attack. They were i generally muscular, fine, stout fellows, with I rough, soldiery faces. Tl.e Russians car- j ried off all I lie dead which lay outside our l ues to the town, passing down between the j Maine!.m and Round Tower. In the midst i of all tn;s stem evidence of war a certain amount of lively conversation began to spring up, in which the Bussian officers in dulged in a little badinage. Hum *of them asked our officers * when we we were coming in to take the place,’ others < when we tho't of going away ■’ Seine congratulated us up on the excellent opportunity we had getting a good look at Sevastopol, as the chance of n nearer view, except cu similar occasions, was not in their opinion very probable. One officer asked a private confidently in English how many men we sent into the trenches ? Begorra, only 7.000 a night, and a wake covering party of 10,000,’ was the ready re ply. Tiie officer laughed and turned away. At one time a Russian with a litter stop ped by a dead body, and put it into the litter. He looked around for a comrade to help him. \ Zouave at once advanced with much grace and lifted it., to the infinite a miuseinent of the l y-sfanders ; but the joke not long-lived, as a Russian brusquely came up and helped to carry off his dead ■comrade. In the town we could see large ‘bodies of soldiery in the streets, assemblotLat the corners and in public places. Probably they were ordered out to make a show of their strength. The Russians denied that Entice Meuschikoff was dead, but they ad mitted that Admiral lsturmin was killed lie Was one of the principal officers engaged m tue destruction of the Turkish fleet ut Si n‘) i n b au( l the Czar had rewarded him by giv- IR c hint an order of St George of higher dis hnction than that wore by Prince Menschi and of a class which is generally ao '■‘-‘ded to successful generals who have con u'tod an army and closed triumphnntcain r,a'gns. a distinguished looking man, who ’'“plained that lie was likely to be deprived 0 “s cruise in his yacht this year by the ‘ w.is pointed out to u3 as Prince Baria tinski. thn L- 1 IPPI ’—l >ra ‘ r ‘ e News says that in U °, W Not * n S party in Missisippi are go ernor rT Gc ° Cr ' 11 Jolm A - Quitman Gov ernor of that State at the next election. • 16 ‘ ra^“r Cf -t' lri es in Louisiana are rh?- ■ Horrible. * The Norfolk Herald publishes a letter from an officer on the United Steamer Queen, off Canton, dated 15th Feburavy, of which we take the following extracts : The principal amusement wo have just now, is seeing Ibe impcralists and rebels fight. I hear heavy connonadiug about six miles down the river, and 1 will - kuock off ’ writing while I go doWtl and see the tight, j 12 1-ff P. M. Well, I have just returned from j a Chinese battle, and have seen fifty or sixty Chinamen .killed, three or four junks sunk, and a vast quanity of powder burned ; but i what does it amount to ?

The river is literally filled witfTthe bodies ! ot dead Chinamen ; as neither side appear to • bury their slain but just throw them in the i river.

The writer expresses the belief that Can ton will never be taken by tie rebels. Later from California. Nt.w Orleans. April 2b, 1855. The U S.

The firmament was cloud- ; lessly clear, and the refreshing coolness of the evening breeze aftc-r a hot, burning day. j made astronomical observation doubly inter esting. The moon entered the shadow of the earth a few minutes before nine, and at ten was totally obscured, though she did not reach the middle of the earth's umbra till ne a y eUvcn. The to‘nl obscuration Listed ; one hour and thirty minutes. There'was a ] perceptible diminution of light, notwithsand- i ing the firmament was studded with stars The obscuration was marked by the Usual ) dismal reddish color of lunar eclipses. This ; is supposed to because*! by the partial de- ! composition of light in passing through our , atmosphere, ambits refraction in the direc tion of the moon. The lunar eclipse lias been of great service to astronomy, ns, by com paring those of ancient and modern times, it j has been found that the velocity of the moon . in 1 e • orbit if constantly accelerated. ; .Got-.

The Know Noth ini; Convention —V'e j understand that the grand convention of mi dergrounders that met-in Macon on the 2d inst., broke up and dispersed without being - able to agree upon ft candidate. V’e learn, j further, that it being feared that no man in : their ranks would be able to stand before . the people from now until October without | becoming * flat, stale and unprofitable” it was i unanimously agreed to slave off a nomina tion until August.

Moke Georgia Gold. —The editor ! of the Augusta, Constitutionalist has been shown another lump of gold, from the mine | | of Messrs. McCormick & Leitmer, Columbia county. It was the product of twenty-six ; hands in nine working days from surface ore, some of which had been thrown aside for fif teen years. The lump weighs 1,700 penny-! weights, and is worth about one thousand six hundred and fifty dollars. Georgia is ; rich in mineral wealth, and if the same la- ; bor was bestowed on her gold mines, ns is given in the gold region of California, we : have had no doubt she con hi produce more of! the precious metal, and avoid many of the hardships that are experienced by miners ‘ ; n that state. ! _ j i The Diamond found at Manchester, near’ Richmond,, Va., several months ago, by a poor man named Moore, is now in New York ; tor sale. It weighs 2b 3 4 carats, and is ! j represented as the largest diamond ever 1 : found in North America. It is about the si/e j of a large hn/le nut, of great brilliancy, and , quite smooth. In the centre of it, however, j are several small black specks. It is said it was put in a furnace for melting iron at Richmond, where it remained in a red heat for two hours and twenty minutes. It was then taken out and found to bo uninjured and brighter than ever. It was valued in ; Richmond at four thousand dollars. It is said that in St. Peterburg the war ’ party has completely got the upper hand and that Alexander ll’s throne would not be worth a week's purchase if he were to at tempt to thwart the current of national feeling. The rioh nobles, who in their hearts long for peace, and will be the greatest suf ferers by the war, are coinpellod to swell the tpopular cry. .They offer large j tione, in the hope of averting a sweeping ad valorem property-tax, mnaunUug to jpqtWjs- Warner. The Hon. Hiram Warner, has addressed a letter to the editor of the Marietta Advo | cate, from which we learu he positively de | dines permitting his name to be used in a | nomination for Congress.

Reed j er's call upon the Morth to espouse the cause i of the freesoilers in Kansas lias met with a j prompt response from Massachusetts. The following proceedings in her Legislature have manifestly been called forth by his appeal, already pudished in this paper ; In the House of Representatives of the Massachusetts Legislature, on Tuesday, Mr ! Black submitted a preamble ami resolutions ’ concerning the invasion of Kansas Territory i by armed Missourians, calling upon the exe cutive of Missouri to preveut a repetition of ! the Outrages ; ami calling upon the Presi i dent to take instant and effective measures 1 . ; for sustaining the sovereignty of Kansas against further violence ; and pledging the j Commonwealth of Massachusetts, if necessa i ry. to aid with its whole power the govern ment and people of Kansas in the main ten : ance of constitutional rights. | Somebody Wanted to take Sevasto pol.—The English people despair of their old fogy generals in t! eCri . e t tak ng Sevas topol, and the London Times suggests that if Americans can show a way to t-ske Sevasto pol, England will be ready to learn and give them credit for the lesson. This is regular ly inviting proposals, and we have no doubt that a contract could be made in the United States which would ensure the accomplish ment of the j d*. A Benevolent Man.--There was one hundred letters dropped into the Post Office in Alexandria, (Ya.,) during the month of April, upun which the postage was tot pre paid—so the Postmaster could not put them in the mail.

According to the estimate in the Boston j Journal, the loss bv the recent fire in that j city is about £I,OOOOOO of which about £4OO,- i 000 is covered by insurance, mostly in Bos- ; ton offices. This is much higher than the first accounts, which, it will he remembered, reported the total loss in the'neighborhood of (,50,000. !

James Trent. Heal the Sick- —Men ofliberal education at the present day, devote nil tiieir talents to dis cover the means whereby they may remove these painful maladies which assail the human frame. There is no nobler art than that of healing the sick, considering tho numberless diseases to which man is liable, and which may cause him towtrag out at protracted life of distress, or sud denly cut him oft'in the bloom of his existence and usefulness. We should gratefully seize up on every means of counteracting their dreadful effects, qr causing a removal of those clogs to happiness. In those cases where the Liver or the Stomach is the cause, wo would highly re commend Dr. lloolland's German Bitters, pre pared by Dr. C. M. Jackson. No medicine at this time stands higher than these Bitters, and to those who are suffering from the horrors of Indigestion, we say they are the antidote. A FACT WORTH KNOWING.- it should be /Y_ borne in mind that we have pursued a course entirely different from the usual inode, in bringing our medicines to the notice of physi cians. The recipes, of Stable’* Anodyne Cher ry Expectorant and Diarrhoea Cordial have been made known confidentially, to upwards of five hundred medical men, every one of whom re commend them ns a highly efficient remedy in dll cases of Coughs, Colds Croup, Bronchitis, Asthma, and diseases ofltho Lungs and Throat generally. Tho Diarrhoea Cordial ha* also re ceived tiieir unqualified praise as a remedy for diseases of the bowels, both in children and adults; and the many cures that these “good medidines” have effected, prove the physicians’ opinion well founded.

Knowing the unprts j cedent popularity of his medicines, and the i immense sale of thorn, we had expected to find him a milliotiare, and rolling in wealth. But ; no, we found him in his laboratory, busy, with ! 1 his laborers, among his crucibles, alembics, and , i and retorts- giving his best personal care to , i the Compounds, on the virtues of which thou- ! sands hang for health. We learned, that not-; ; withstanding his vast business, and its prompt j 1 returns in cash, the Doctor is not rich.
