THE CIRCASSIANS. , The wars which the Russians have waged, and continue lo wage against ibe Circassians, make that people a subject of-some, interest to the1 civilized world,- which Jnduces us to publish the following sketch of them, given by the New York correspondent of the Wash ington Union r " The face of the country iu Circassia is mouuitmious, interimcrscd with a great many rapid streams of pure water.

The soil iu places is exceeding fruitful. Many of the valleys are said Id be moM 'beautiful and picturesque vast varieties f tree., plant, aud grasses are evety where met with. - Much of the soil is also roc ky and teril, as moun tain slopes often are. The Circassians are remarkable for their love of horses. Their breeds are said to be uearly as famous and equally as good as the best Arabian animals. They stamp on the hide of the animals mains which denote the blood of the horse counterfeiting which, they pun lab with death. Their country abounds with cattle of alt kinds such as sheep, cows, wild oxen, agali, &cv (Jauie is also abundant. Hyena?, jackals, and wolves are also met with. Wild boars are fouud in the swamps of the Kilban. in the mountains, ores ol'b-ad, iron, and cop per are said to be met with. Saltpetre is found in abundance. Ciicassia is said to contain no coal or salt. The latter article was formerly obtained from salt lakes of the stepper to the north, and from the Tu k., through tie ports offhe Black sea.
