(gj- The news brought over by the Niagara, which arrived at Boston on the 10th inst., state that another battle^ has-been fought by the Turks and Russians. The Russian General led 30,000 men against the position which the Turks had taken, on the left bank of the Danube. A combat ensued which lasted six hours. The Russians were routed and left a large number of muskets and amunilion on the field.— Eight hundred Russians were killed in the fight, while the Turkish loss was only 13

killed and 72 wounded.

of the Secretary of the Treasury we are indebted to the Washington Globe:

In his opening exhibit of the condition of the Treasury, the Secretary shows that the receipts for the past fiscal year amounted to §61,337,574, which being added to the balance of §14,632,136 37 in the Treasury on the 1st of July, 1852, made the total means for the public service of the last fiscal year 875,969,710 77. The actual expenditures for the same year, including about ten and a half millions applied to the payment of the

the remaining three quarters of the present fiscal year, as estimated by the Secretary, amount to §40,300,000, which added to the balance in the Treasury at the close of the first quarter, give a total sum of 868,517,887 78 for the service of the remainder of this fiscal year. The expenditures for the same period, as estimated by the Departments, including the application of §15,000, 000 to the public debt, amount to 857,251, 283 16, which will leave an estimated balance in the Treasury, on the 1st of July next, of 811,266,604 62. The Secretary estimates the receipts for the next fiscal year, ending June 30th, 1055, at §55,000,000, which, added to the estimated balance in the Treasury on the 1st July next, will give §66,266,604 62 as the total resources of the Government for that year. The estimated expenditures for that year amount to 851,080,277 12. This will leave an estimated balance in the Treasury, on the ljt July, 1855, of §15,206,327 50, which must be increased by any portion of the appropriation not expended within the year, and reduced by any amount applied to the public debt, a'r.d by any uimiuuation of the reveue consequent upon an alteration of the tariff.

The public debt on the 1st July. 1852, amounted to-572/101.087 17. Of this sum, §3.342,150 was paid from 1st July, 1852. I lo 4ih of March last and §12,722,779 75, has been paid from the 4th of March last to 3J of the present month, at which date the public debt had been reduced to #56,336,157 52. In applying the accumulative surplus in the Treasury to the payment of the public debt, the Secretary determined that the various stocks of the Government, instead of being in accordance with past practice, purchased by brokers on Government account, and out of funds advanced from the

Treasury, should be redeemed at the Treasury directly, and at the current market price. The report gives a highly interesting detail of manner in which thi important

JZisT Every body knows that the Ozar Nicholas is, in body, a giant, possessing immense physical strength, of which he extremely proud and every body knows, also, that a vast portion of his time is dovoted to reviewing and inspecting his armies. Perhaps every body is equally ware that Russian generals and princes— Russian Emperors even, sometimes, when engaged in this duty of military inspection, have a way, not deemed strange or undignified for great characters in that unhappy country, of caning and otherwise maltreating his seddiers in the ranks wKo happen to displease them. Peter the Great it will b« remembered, used to beat his couriers, kicking and cuffing the great lords in tb» palace. The Archduke Constantino (th* right iK-ir of Alexander, whom Nicholas-, his younger brother, by some hocus pocua. choused cut of the succession) seeing an old soldier at a review with his neck stock carelessly put on, rushed at him in a rage, and beat him over the head when being informed the poor veteran wore his stock thus in consequence of a wound he had received in the neck which disabled him from wearing it in any other way, the high and mighty brute immediately relented, embraced the soldier, asked his pardon, and gave him a commission as an otficer.

The Emperor Nicholas, the rnagnificient and pious, was guilty of a similar, or worse, act of brutality, which was without any redeeming trait of subsequent regret or gencrositv. He found, one day, a soldier on parade, whose whisker oflended him. Ha dashed at the soldier, seizeil him by thi whisker, and never Jet go his hold until he tore the whisker from the cheeek, wuh th«s tiesh attached toil and he actually boasted of this feat, p.s a manifestation of hi# strict, attention to discipline..-London CitronUs.

One would have thought that he would have been satisfied with the corpses of the dead, groans of the dying, and tlie deep wailings of the living but still he cries, "give— give," still waves his sceptre, and heaps up his hecatombs.

ZW Punch proves the impossibility of an inhabitant of the earth ever reaching thesun. Supposing a railway to the sun possible, it would take five hundred and fourteen years to accomplish the journey but it lias been shown that every soul in trio train would have perished in two hundred and twenty-eight years by the chance of accident consequently no individual could ever reach the sun.
