CITY ITEMS. ^&»5 g3T The wall of Mr. Barr's planing factory fell in this morning, while the bands were making preparations for enlarging the basement, by excavating ihe earth—no one injured. We are sorry to learn that this accident will materially delay his projected improvements.

A correspondent of the Evans-

ville Journal, *writing from the seat of war in£lay Co., says, that "a fight they •will have before they leave." All was quie at the time of his writing, and the bovs were amusing themselves in casting ballets. Their quarters are in three old boats, with stifcw for their beds.

We learn that a gentleman named Noble reached our city on Monday evening lasi, and complained to our city police that he had been robbed of $2,500 on the cars, and also pointed out

Levantines, intent on sendiug the quick-

They do not know what to make of the telegraph. The price of a message is regulated by the number of words, the greater the number of words the less the price. A single message of twentyfive words costs, from Varna to Vienna, twenty eight francs, or about five dollars aud twenty cents.

The operations of the electric telegraph in Turkey, by which news from the seat of war is now obtained, appears to be very perfect. In five hours, a dispatch from Balaklava reaches London and Paris, mil, with some improvements contemplated, the War Department in London expect to get despatches in two hours. The system which is working at Varna is that of Morse, and the messaves are sent with great rapidity. The inhabitants of the country avail themselves of the new means of transmission provided for them with singular readiness.—Tho oflic.c at VariiH is daily •crowded with Greeks, Americans and
