We learn that the School Trusteet Kate made arrangements for opening the Free School for a few months. As this suggests the subject, we will take occasion to say s few thing (n JTtrtace to jour, schools, not caring whether our riewe arejpopularjor unpopular. - ' la the first place, we say that the nonsyto be spent for teachers and house rent, might nearly as well be drown away. In saying this we do avot mean to disparage the teachers, fcrt to condemn the system of huddling together about two hundred childrtn, three months la a year, under new teachers, with new rules of teaching and governing, if indeed'any syatim of gorcrnment or instruction can be applied to such a school in so short i time.- The children are to be of all get, sexes, attainments aad habits. Some will be there who hare attended other schools erer since the frco school eloted last spring. Others who were than in the same class, have spent the rummer in playing in the streets, or at work. It will be the work of half a quarter to class such cases, as they should D6,'and atbcst.'the classes roust be arranged tojgreat disadvantage. The boy from the street will not read Dy fall in with any rules of government,' and the boy from other schools .. will not at onco "get the hang of the new school' Ileneei confusion must be the prerailing element daring the whole term, and, asundor the present system, short terms must prevail, our free schools mutt be marked more for . disorder aad worthlcssness than any thing else. Is there any remedy? That is a question of importance, and one to which the truo man should direct his investigation. We will give our opinion and make our suggestion, aid then allow others toVlisscnt or mod ify as they may desire. We begin by saying that every consideration that should move the Chris . tian patriot and philanthropist, de mands free schools. And, if free schools are at all desirable, they sho'd be of such a character as to bo nscful. To be useful, they should bo kept up regularly, and managed with ability. A wholesome system of discipline should be adopted and rigidly en fore ed. They should also bo of such a character ns to attract, rather than repel patronage, and so that those who attend them should regard themselves the favored ones and not as the outeast and poor. Can such schools be maintained? We answer they can. But says one, it will cost so much. Well, it ought to , eost much. Such a blessing ought tot to be desired without cost, and every lover of children, and of the oncoming generation of men, should be more willing to invest funds in such a manner, than in banks or railroads or fine houses or fine clothing. There is confesedly one obstacle in the way of a good system of free schools in BrookviHe that dorn not exist everyplce. We havo a promising College that supplies the wants of those who can afford its privileges. This removes, in some decree, the necessity of a graded department in the free schools, and this destroys their efficiency and value. This college has been built chiefly by the voluntary contributions of our citisens, and they foci an interest in its prosperity and success, and they will patronize it whoever may teach in'the free schools. We regard the existenco of this collcgo m the only hindrance to the establishment of such a system of graded free schools as would be an honor to our town. Whilo it exists no other good . school can exist. In the first place . those who pay for tuition there, will not be willing to pay sufficient taxes ' to keep up a free school, of the right kind. They may bo outvoted occasionally and compelled to pay taxes, but occasionally, say hilf the time, they wiil put in such a board of trustees as will not tax for school purposes, and then tho schools will be abandoned, at least for a year, and the desks and furniture will (be destroyed, and another board, favorable to schools must begin anew. If they can not outrote directly, they can easily get up ' some side issue the clock question the hog question, or something else to .defeat those who will tax them for school purposes. Out there is a greater difficulty than this in the way. Even if the graded schools are superior in point of real worth, there will bo a kind of prestige around tho college that will cause children to feci that tho frco schools are inferior in caste, at least, the schools for the poor, and'many a poor parent will do himself injustice to send bis children where 'richer children ro. We admit that this is wrong, but such Is human naturo and it is useless to quarrel about it. Again it will take from the higher department so m:iny students that tho classe will be unprofitably small too small for tho advantage of the scholars. Another difficulty in tho way is a .want of a suitable building. Such a b sliding as we really need can not be
twenty years to come. Even one "of half the sue and cost will be voted down. What then aboil we do? Shall we do without free sohools twenty years? or what Is worse, hall we weste several hundred dollars every year in renting an unsuitable böus and in keeping up worthless schools? Shall we continue to live. under system that will place the means of edu
cation only in tne hands of the rich,
whilr other towns, all around miTSr4?: ml Wlty !u
enjoying the advantage of good grn ded schools? Surely every consideration of humanity says no. ' ' What shall we do? This is a question for the consideration of our wisest and best men. Ws make tho following suggestion hoping it will be received as kindly as it is offered, whether others approve or not. We propose that wj buy the college building and ground for the graded school purposes. The building, when finished, will be large enough for tho whole town, for all time to come, and it need not be finished any faster than the wants of the school demand. It is central enough. No child who is too young or too feeble to go th-re ought to go to school. Dut can it be bought ? We do not know. We have our fears, yet it is worth an effort to try. We are some. what acquainted with the motives of most who have contributed to its erection, and believe they would) as soon the management of the school should bo in tho hands of tho sc howl trustees as in tho hands of the board that now controls it. All they want is a good school. A graded school can be made a better school than any otherikind, and can be acccssable to persons living out cf tho town. Dut this is enough for the present. We will only add that if the funds that will be wasted worse than wasted this winter, on the free school, had been added to tho tuition bills paid in at college, enough teachers could have been employed to have opened every department 'of tho college to every child in town, the wholo year. In other words, it will cost no more to keep a graded school, of as good a character as the college, accessible all the year, to every child, than is now paid in town)for school purposes, which many can not enjoy. We think the school trustees might, without anydrapropriety, enquire into this matter. It will hurt no one to ask questions. AQBZZASIS BTTRPBI82. A lady in Cincinnati went through n great deal of unnecessary suffering, in connection with one of tho recent failures. Her husband and eldest sod were absenton a little trip down the river, when the news reached her of tho failure of the Dank in which, for years, they had deposited their saving, with the intcntioa of sotno day buying a houso and somo land in the country. How she grieved can be well surmised; bnt her grief was moro for her indus trious and self-denying husband and son, than for herself. How could she communicate the sad news of tho wreck' of their hard-earned property? They had left her in such buoyant spirits fui a little holiday, an unwonted indulgence, and therefore much thought of; and what a sad welcome sho hud in reserve fer them! They returned yesterday, but the occurrences of the week wero sources of no trouble to them. With the desire of giving her a pleasing surprise, they had recently drawn all their money from tho Bank, mid a little below Madison, had purchased a perfect paradise of a farn, ready stocked. Her surprise was a pleasing one indeed, but from different reasons to what they had expected when carrying out their littlo plot. Even John Wentworth long John Wentworth of Chicago, has, liko many others, deserted the winking wreck of Democracy." According to the Chicago Tribune, Wcutworlli gave the old hulk n kick downwards, ns he leaped from her, in tho following lan guage: He is reported to have said, tho othday, that "tho old Democratic party would have bei-n good for five years longer had not Doughs knocked it on its head by his infamous Nebraska bill, but it is so oompletely gone that it will not pay tho cxpcnscff its burial." This is second only to the declaration of a Missouri gentleman, that tho "Pierce administration was fast burying the party to a locality not laid down o. the maps, but supposed, from accounts to be too hot for comfort." Turkish Soldiers. One peculiar ity of the Turkish soldiery is, that they will smoke. It is a very common thing to see a sentinel wit), a cigar in hismouih ; and it is not unusual, in passing a corps de ganU, to be respectfully asked, "Havo you any tobacco, sir?" Nothing is commoner when ono happens to bo smoking, than to be checked by the military, in a voice between entreaty and commsnd, "Wait, sir! A licht. sir if you ploancj" Sxixcr School. Mrs. Lanius will open a select school at her residence, next Monday. As the Freo schools will certainly bo so crowded as to be worthless, we think tho parents of small children will do well to send to Mrs. Lanius.
KORS ABOUT SÜD TDfXS. Hie principle cau-ofvthe preRent hard tiroes can be juatly attributed to nothing else but eXtravagsnrrw-not of tho States, nox the nation, but of individuals. When wesuy, that we have bought more than we are able to pay for, we do not say it In A general way, or as something to' be repeated weekly like ft form of prayer, but as something appjicable to the great majority of nil tho familicaln tho lTniled, ; StaU This eatravagaoce ap plica exclusively to no single, or to no half dosen departments of lifci,.but
common necessities. . It commenced in small things and' went up to large. It bejjandtvnay be, in a milliner's shop, and ended in a speculation,' brilliant bubble, or splendid houses, "and a sale by the Sheriff. To say that we have gone too fast, and too far would be but thu repitition ,of an old saw, that has grated on every old woman's ear for ten years". That we are progressive and speculative, that we make large 'drafts on the future, endorse them with hope, discount them with creditand draw the proceeds at sight, are but charactciistic of our people. Dut instead of their general traits, we must bring up individual application. Tho gentleman who wears a fifty dollar coat, whose materials camo from France, who sports a two hundred dollar watch, (n gem in its way, doubtless, from (lencva.) and who sips his rare wines from Madcria, has no right to dismiss this subject without reflection and discussion. His wife nnd daughters, too, have an interest in the matter. Those raagnificant silks at from three to six dollars a yard, those splendid clonks so cheap at sixty, those loves of bonnets at twenty-fivo, and such cxqulsito handkerchiefs at thirty, all have it voico in the matter. It is of no uso to state that our importations have been excessive, and it is a pity that the naughty importers should have so drained tho sountry of its gold; for wherever there is no demand, there is, of coure, no supply. . Every ono has observed within a few years n gn at and rapid change in our stylo of living and its expenses. Some of this is legitimate from n really increased ability, but much is false, hollow and deceptive. Two years ago our railroad enterprises were in full tide of successful operation. Donds sold readily in foreign markets, credit was expanded, property went up, and not only all the world, but tho rest of mankiml, slapped his trowsers pocket and thought themselves rich. We need not attempt to trace tho results of this general inflamation through nil ranks of business. Liko the beart at the centre of the system, it governed every interest in tho country with which n dollar is connected. Its worst excresence, that which reflects the least honor, or rather tho most disgrace, whs the personal extravagance we have spoken of. Money was borrowed to furnish houses with n luxury that rivalled that of a Sybarite.'dcbts wero contracted for the accompanying dresses, jewelry, gew-gnws, dinners, parlies, and balls considered necessary to maintain a false position, nnd so it went on, until tho airy and deceitful tabric came tumbling down upon their ears with a crash. Men did these things who supposed they were able to do them, and when they found such was not the case, had not tho moral courage to stop. If the money expended in this extravagance had been diffused among our own citizens, thcjinconvenicnco we now complain of would be much less. Dut we must sond one hundred and twenty-fiw million to England for manufactures, of which we could have produced many at. homo, nnd. done without more and we must send thir-ty-ihr o millions to France for silks and brandy. Is it nny wonder that wo have hard times? A Nw Esccunt. A new tuber, tho Chinese Yam, has been introduced in lurli, from China, which the chemists mid espcrlmcntlsls say pos sesses all the requirements of the po tatoo, and may tnkc tho placo of that plant as a culinary vcgitablf, Speci mtus have also been introduced in En gland, where they thrive well. The French chemist says of thu Yum: "It has been domesticated from it me im memorial, nnd is perfectly hardy in Paris. Its root is bulky, rich In nu tritivo (flatter, eatable when raw, cast ly cooked, either by boiling tr roasting and then having no other taste than that of flour. It is as much a ready made bread a thu potato.' Wo hope some member of Congress will send us a spec men from the Putcnt Office. Swiggett, if you will persuado Hon. S. W.

SZBYIXO AX ATTACHMINT. I It i known that our sheriff keeps a
j goodly number of bailifis, among whom ar some good looking oldish young men, that might have been married long ago if they had wanted to.- The following anecdote is told, in substance, of the way an attachment was served some place. We don't say, positively, that it occurred in this county, and we would not say it Old not for less than a quarter. - ' A buxom young widow had been aubpenaei to attend Court, but for reasons, not neces-ary to rekto,. she neglected, whereupon an attachment was inued, and an unmarried man dispatched to sorve it. Nothing loth, but rather enjoying the service, he was soon at the widows, waiting for her to make her appearance in the parlor. She soon entered, dressed in her Sandays, and appenrd highly delighted to see her guest. After the usual salutations, the deputy remarked : "Madam, I have nn attachment for you." The widow made a desperate effort to blush, dropped her head, twirled her thumbs, and at length replied. "Well Rir, I think I enn suy it is tvciprocated." The deputy, understanding her to mean that Jshe acknowledged the service, ond would in duo time bo ready to go, waited u few minutes; but finding her not moving, concluded he would hurry her along, by saying "Madam, will you proceed to Court? " "Proceed to Court I " said tho lady, almost fainting. "Ln 1 no sir, this is not leap ycir, you may, do the courting yourself." It was now the deputy' turn to blush and be embarrassed. Ho soon recovered enough however to stammer out : "Come madam, the Judge is waiting for us." "Tho Judge, indeed," said tho Lady, indignantly. 'Do you think I am going to bo married by a Judgo ? Never sir, I assure you. ' " "But madam," said the Bailiff; "they are waiting for us nt the Court Houso." "Worse and worce sir, you not only spoke to the Judge to marry us, without consulting me, but you have chosen tho Court House as the place. Never, sir I You wish to insult nie do you ? Great attachment you havo forme sir I Begone sir, and if ever you come about thi houso again, professing to have an attachment for me, I'll give you the broomstick sir." Whether that Bailiff ever got that witness "to Court," wc lmc the rendfticr t0 ,mag,n IS TUX BANK BRUKt On the night of Manchester's failure, while yet a few persons lingered at his banking-house door, it very decent looking Irish woman rushed up, and with tears streaming from her eyes, asked "if the bank wor bruk." On being assured that such w& tho melancholy truth, in a voice full of anguish she asked who was killed? Before the astonished bystanders could answer, she raved, rather than uttered; "Me Larry and the two byes arc dead; I know they are. Ohl wirra, wirra; I always told them tho bank 'ud break, an be tho death ov'cm, and they only laughed atme. Ochoncl that'll become of a lone woman, widouC busbant or childer." It appeared that her husband and two sons were employed at a sand bank, nnd hearing that a bank was "bruk," as she expiesscdit, she at once thought the particular bankjwhero all the wife and mother had to lovo wero at work, had fallen upon, and buried them, a not unfrcqucnt catastrophe. When made to understand the differ ence between a bank of deposit and a bank of sand, she was in a hurry to run back home to be sure all was right; but so much was sho enfeebled by ag itation, that a glass of water had to be procured for her, and accompunied to hcrhome, where she fell on her knees to thank the Holy Virgin, when sho found her family all comfortsbly8catcd. It appcaredjthcir "boss" had taken them home to supper with him. and their unaccustomcdjabsenco had alarmed the Affectionate woman, who had just then heard of tho bunk breaking, nnd rushed off expecting to find them buried beneath the fallen earth.

6EBA8T0PCL The port of Sabastopol consists of A bay running in a south-easterly direction, about four miles long, and s mile wide at the entrance, diminishing to foui hundred yards at the end, where the "Tchenan Itetchkc." or Black
River, empties itself. The average depth is about eight fathoms, the bottom being composed of mud in tho centre, and gravel at the sides. On tbouthern coast of this bay aro the commercial,, military, and c&reftning harbours; the quarantine harbours be-" ing' outside the entrance, all these taking a southerly direction, andhav-. ing deep water. ' " Tho military harbour is the Urges'; being about one mile and a half long by four hundred yards wide, and is completely land-locked on every side. Here it is that the Black Sea fleet is moored in th! winter; tho largest ships being ablo to lie with all their stores on board close to the quays. The small harbour, which contains the naval arsenal nnd docks, is on the eastern side of the military harbour, near the entrance. The port is defended to the south by six principal batteries and fortresses, inch mounting from fifty to one hundred and ninety guns; and the north by four, having from eighteen to one hundred nnd twenty pieces each; and besides these there are many smaller batteries. Tho fortresses are built on tho ensfma'.e piinciple, three of them hating three tiers of guns, and A fourth two tiers. Fort St. Nicholas is the largest And mounts about one hundred and ninety guns; on carefully counting thuru, wu made one hundred and eigh ty-six. By great interest we obtained permission to enter this fortress. It is built of white limestone; n fine sand stone, which becomes hard, and is very durable; the same material being used for all tho other forts, Between every two casemates are furnaces for heat ing shot red hot; we measured the calibre of the guns, and found it to be eight inches, capable of throwing shells or sixty-eight pound shot. Whether all tho guns in the fortress were of the same size, it is impossible to say; but my belief isthat most of the fortificatious of Sebastopol are heavily armed. We entered Fort St. Nicholas through tho clegantly-fur-nished apartments of the military commandant, lituatcd nt it southwestern end. At tho period of our vUit there were certainly not more than eight hundred and fifty pieces of artilicry dofending the port toward the sea, and of theso about three hundred and fifty could be concentrated on a ship entering the bay. Other battciics, however, are said to have been siuco built. Wo took ome trouble to ascertain these facts by counting tho guns of the various fort, not always an easy matter where any suspicion of our object might have subjected us to grave inconveniences. Sebastopol is admirably adapted by naturo for a strong position towards the sea, and it will bo seen from what we have 6tated above that this has been fully taken advantage of to render it one of the most formidable fortified places in that direction which could be imagined. . . . . i i - A New kind or Brick. Wo were shown yesterday an entirely new material for the construction of buildings. It is a preparation of sand and lime put into moulds, and operated upon with a most powerful press. The specimens we saw had about three times the superficial area of a common brick, though, of course, their size would depend upon the pleasure of the maker. They aro made with an open space in the centre, occupying ono-nalf the length and about onethird the breadth of the brick. Those we saw were a handsome gray colour, as smooth as dressed atone could be, and apparently as solid as granite. Their real solidity was about equal to a good burnt brick, though they had been made but about three weeks, and timo and exposuro are expected to harden them continually. They can bo furnished as cheaply as brick, and unless some difficulty is developed with regard to them not now apparent, it seems to us they must come into active demand for building purposes. They would certainly appear as beautiful as the finest stone, and making, as thev do, a hollow wall, with a smooth interior surface, they can be papered against, or painted or whitewashed, without the necessity of lathing or plastering.—<Kenosha Tel., Sept>, 21. ----- ----->A Mormon settlement is being made in Kansas.

The Aathorltjr of lb Uftverntnrut f ally Xtomonstrattd. NO LIV3 LOST. Webrinout our "Daby Waker" this week, not to celebrte the downfall of the strongholds of Sevastopol, tho' theso were giving way before the guns of the Allied Powers, at the latest date, and doubtless, ere tbis,' are a mass of ruins. Kot to rejoice in the humbling of Louis Napoleon, by a bombardment of Paris, for he has had the good sense to learn a lesion from the fate of Oraytown, and back out from !iis foolish position. It will be seen by reference to au article in another part of this paper, that he invites Uon(?) Mr. Soul to pasi through his dominions. We nre glad of this, ns it will save a wot'ld of gas und diplomacy. Moreover, we doubt whether it would be as citsy to bombard Paris, and vindicate Mr. Soule'a honor, ns it wus to bombard Graylown in behalf of insulted Mr. Borland. It might bo a game at Lion two would play, and, on the whole.be a troublesome affair. flul it is not on this account that we bring out our gun. Neither is it on account of the results of the late elec tions. That we arc pleased with theso may easily be imagined. We are par ticularly ploastd with tho election of Clark, the t temperance candidate, for Governor, though it be but by majority of 2G0, as the latest date show. Considering th fact that thousands of dollars wero spent by the liquor seilen of New York, and by other government officials, to secure the election of Seymour, the man who vetoed the temperance bill last winter, and who endorsed the Nebraska Swindle, wo might afford to bring out both our gun and chicken but for the overshadowing, but bloodies victory, recently achievedby our government, in tho removal of the Know Nothing Post Master at Millvillej Ohio, nnd the appointment of an Irishman in his steadt Compared with this, the victory at Uraytown is nothihg. Let Know Nothing Post Matters lookout! As Emperor Napoleon, and the rest of the world learned a lesson j from tho fate of Grnytown, so should Know Nothing Post Masters profit by the fate of Mr. Hill. THE 80ULI QTJI5TI0X SETTLED. Wo publish below, articles from the New York Times and Herald, from which it appears that the "Soulc Difficulty" has been a brief one, Louis Napoleon backing out, denying that any insult to the United States was in tended, and withdrawing tho order excluding Mr. Soule from France. It is said this course was dictated by England, and as appears that tho or der excluding Soule was given not on grounds personal to him alone, but on account of the treatment of Dillon, the French Consul nt San Francisco, and tho conduct of the French refu gees in New York when tho French vesscls-of-wsr wero in that port. An article in tho Constitutionnel, which ix supposed to have been written by Louis Napolo m himself, cites theso facts to justify his refusal to permit Soule to pass through France. The Emperor has reconsidered the matter, however, and now invites Mr. Soule to pass through Franco on his way to Madrid. From tits Ss tr York Timet. Tux So l'lk QrxsTiox SkttlkdI We have a private letter from a well informed source in London, written at tho last moment before tho closing of the mail, saying that "Me French Government has withdrawn all objections to Mr. Soule' passing throvpk IVance-" It is also stated that the Knglish Government feel a good deal of uneasiness about tho matter, on various grounds. It dreaded tho reaction which the French Emperor's treatment of Mr. Boule would create towards the Western Powers, nnd was especially alarmed at his readiness to enter into new quarrels while in alliance with England. If our correspondent's statement as to the ihsue of tho matter is true, as we havo reason to believe it is, the result has very probably been brought about by tho intervention or adviso of tho English Government. From another private letter from London, written'also on the cvo of the steamer's departure, and based on telegraphic dispatches from Paris, we learn the following facts corroborating tho above: "Louis Napoleon had a personal interview with Mr. Mason, in which he withdrew the restraints upon Mr. Soule's passage tin "igh thu French territory, disclnimii... all intention cf insult to the Uniud States Government in the person of its Envoy. The manner of tne Emperor was dry and curt, and it is believed that this disclaimer was a diplomatic move, understood to have been dictated by England, tho English Cabinet advising that tho initiatory against Mr. Boule, per sonally, should be taken, if nt all, by their Government. The banauet proposed to be given to Mr. Sonic by the itefugce Republicans in London, will
probably afford the Home Office sn rpportunity for nction." Curri(oniIeu- ( tu yurk jnjj, Lo-vcox, Nov. 3. 1854. Don Piatt, Secretary of the United States Legation at Pans, has just come over with dispatches for Mr. Buchanan in relation to the discourtesy of the French Government to the American Minister to Spsiti. Louis Napoleon, on.' last Sunday, Invited Mr. Mason to
o private interview at the Palace. In thoroTirse.of the discussion Mr. Mason took occasion, with great firmness, to let his Mnjcsty understand to the full me oisasirous consequences oF a war with America, and that he had ro doubt1 on his mind ax to the course which the American Minister to Paris should pursue in the premises. That he should at once, v, ithout proper explanations were given by the t rench court, assume tLo whole responsibility of the consequences, and ask for his passports. , , " ' ; I he excitement of the Americans of Europe in regard to tbis affair had run so high as to effect the prices of French stocks. As the general impression was that Louis Napoleon woulanot recede, the London operators sold a Urge amount of French rentes. . ... fTM . ' , i consequence in ram was the fall of stocks nearly one per cent. As such a tendency was particularly dangerous at this time, when the Empc roris in wanioi money, una the news from Savnstopol so . gloomy .that the festivites at t'ompicgne nre n second time postponed, he had no time for hesitation or dignity. His notc toMr. Mason, breathing h still mote deprecatory tone than the Constitutional, was therefor communicated in sabstance to the PamLountcbomu hours before it was delivered formally to the Legation, inordrr to stop the alarming decline of funds. The nutevnthdratcs allof'jedvms to Mr. Soule's fret passage through France. Louit Xapolcon moreovtr invilis Mr. &jU to proceed iArovgh the Empire on hit tray to Madrid. It is certain that ILo whole influence of thu Ikiliidi Ministry '.has been exerted, through Lord,, Clarendon, to produce thu rvsult that' ha been attained. . .
